Filter by:A unique approach for cancer treatment employing intratumoral diffusing alpha radiation emitter device for superficial cutaneous, mucosal or soft tissue neoplasia
This pilot trial studies how well photoacoustic imaging works in diagnosing changes in tumors in participants with breast cancer, sarcoma, skin cancer, or soft tissue malignancy and healthy volunteers. Photoacoustic imaging is a low-risk imaging method that provides information about the oxygenation of tissues using a combination of light and ultrasound techniques. Photoacoustic imaging uses a signal from hemoglobin to provide information on blood flow and oxygen levels, and it may be helpful in determining changes in tumors after chemotherapy or radiation treatment.
A retrospective evaluation of soft tissue tumors that have undergone core needle biopsy with US guidance (US-CNB)
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of cord blood-derived expanded allogeneic natural killer cells (donor natural killer [NK] cells) and how well they work when given together with cyclophosphamide and etoposide in treating children and young adults with solid tumors that have come back (relapsed) or that do not respond to treatment (refractory). NK cells, white blood cells important to the immune system, are donated/collected from cord blood collected at birth from healthy babies and grown in the lab. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide and etoposide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving NK cells together with cyclophosphamide and etoposide may work better in treating children and young adults with solid tumors.
The main purpose of this trial is to investigate the safety and tolerability of TAEST16001（TCR Affinity Enhancing Specific T cell Therapy）in the multi-line treatment failed advanced solid tumors except non small cell lung cancer,including liver cancer,gastric cancer,esophageal cancer,bone and soft tissue tumors,breast cancer, bladder carcinoma,prostate carcinoma,thyroid cancer, ovarian cancer and so on. The patients must meet the two criteria: human leukocyte antigens (HLA)-A*0201+ and NY-ESO-1 positive cells≥25% by immunohistochemistry.
There are 2 phases in this study: Phase 1 (dose escalation) and Phase 2 (dose expansion). The goal of Phase 1 of this clinical research study is to find the highest tolerable dose of lenvatinib and Xeloda (capecitabine) that can be given to patients with advanced cancer. The goal of Phase 2 of this study is to learn if the dose of lenvatinib and capecitabine found in Phase 1 can help to control advanced cancer. The safety of this drug combination will be studied in both phases of the study.
Adult soft tissue sarcomas (STS) are rare tumours with an estimated incidence averaging 5/100 000/year in Europe. The prognosis of soft tissue sarcomas is dominated by local recurrence and distant metastasis. A link seems to exist between local recurrence and overall survival. Local recurrence occurs in approximately 16-29% of STS of the limbs. A combination of resection and radiotherapy is the optimal treatment of primary tumours according to histological grade and surgical result. Modern imaging techniques such as ultrasound (US), magnetic resonance (MR) and computed tomography (CT) are normally used to rule-out a recurrence in patients operated on for STS. However, none of this technique is perfect and different advantages and drawbacks have to be considered in choosing one or another technique. In the past, US was used in tumour follow-up to detect tumour recurrences, however these studies didn't use high-resolution transducers and the timing of imaging respect to surgery was not defined. The recent advances in transducer technology improved the diagnostic capabilities of US. For the evaluation of limbs soft-tissue masses, US is widely used as a first level modality. The reasons are that US is widely available, fast, easily repeatable and often more accessible than CT and MR Imaging. In addition, US equipped with high-frequency transducers have a spatial resolution that may be comparable or higher than that of MR Imaging and CT in the evaluation of superficial soft-tissues. US and MR Imaging are often not able to differentiate benign from malignant tumours, therefore several lesions detected with US or MR Imaging warrant biopsy. The clinical practice guidelines of the ESMO (European Society of Medical Oncology) published in 2010 found that there are no published data to indicate the optimal routine follow-up policy of surgically treated patients with localized disease. Moreover, it has not been demonstrated that, for limb sarcomas recurrences, MR Imaging is superior and cost-effective compared to US for the assessment of the primary site. Considering that surgically treated intermediate-/high-grade patient may be followed frequently, even every 3-4 months in the first 2-3 years and considering that performing US is easier than having MR Imaging, the purpose of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic performance of US in the detection of local recurrences of adults patients with soft tissue sarcomas of the limb.
Registration of all sarcoma patients treated at a specialized sarcoma center in Switzerland.
Translational studies in cancer research can be impeded by the lack of high-quality clinical data that can be correlated with research questions. This is particularly true in the case of rare diseases, such as bone and soft tissue tumors. It is therefore the purpose of this study to create a prospective EHR-based clinical registry for individuals with bone and soft-tissue tumors.
Tenatumomab is a Sigma-Tau developed new anti-Tenascin antibody. It is a murine monoclonal antibody directed towards Tenascin-C. By means of this antibody, Tenascin-C expression was studied on a commercial tissue array slides each carrying malignant breast, colorectal, lung, ovarian or B and T cell Non-Hodgkin Limphoma tissue sections. All these cancers type showed positivity to Tenascin-C between the 64% and 13.3%. Consequently, Sigma-tau is exploring the use of the 131I-labeled Tenatumomab for anti-cancer radioimmunotherapy.
