Filter by:The purpose of this clinical trial is to explore the impact of En bloc surgery and separation surgery combined with radiation therapy on the prognosis and survival of patients with spinal oligometastatic cancer, describe the clinical results, and optimize future treatment goals
Massive blood loss occurs in metastatic spinal tumor resection and may cause severe complications. The objective of this study is to investigate whether the use of tranexamic acid will reduce perioperative and postoperative bleeding when compared to those without use of tranexamic acid.
The purpose of this clinical study is to collect performance and safety data for post-market Medtronic devices indicated for cranial and/or spinal indication(s). Subjects are enrolled and followed postoperatively for up to 24 months. The Ailliance clinical study is intended to collect data congruous with routine clinical care practices.
Fat composition of the spinal tumors is positively correlated with classification and differential diagnosis of benign and malignant tumors.
Vertebral body resection is a wide accepted procedure in tumor resection, deformity correction, and anterior decompression in spondylosis, ossification of posterior longitudinal ligaments, and spondylodiscitis surgery. However, reconstruction of segmental defect is still challenging to spine surgeon, especially in 3-column resection, such as total en bloc spondylectomy in tumor patients. Various graft or prosthesis for reconstruction has been reported, such as structural allograft, Harms mesh cages, expandable cages, and carbon fiber stackable cages. There are no high evidence level study examining the superiority of those different methods. Recently, 3D printed vertebral body replacement has been reported in different disease entities as well, such as tumor, Kümmell's disease in osteoporosis, and spondylosis. 3D printed implant comes with superiority in production of complex geometries and regularity of the fine surface detailed that promote bone ingrowth. Although, 3D-printed titanium vertebra could achieved bone integration in human, a systemic review showed that the subsidence noted in 31.4% of spine surgery with 3D printed implants. In spine surgery, the fixation construct is sufficiently stiff, interbody motion can be reduced, and loading sharing promotes bone fusion. On the other hand, if the reconstruction is too stiff, stress shielding at fusion site occurs. The concept of dynamic fusion, as opposed to rigid fusion, has been demonstrated by an anterior cervical interbody fusion study in porcine model, demonstrating good bone formation, less postfusion stiffness, and a trend to less subsidence. Thus, we developed a 3D printed, custom-made, biomimetic prosthesis, with non-rigid structure, which has been tested in biomechanical study and porcine model, showing good bone formation and less stiffness as well. Therefore, we proposed a prospective clinical study to investigate safety, subsidence, and fusion of this prosthesis.
This study aims to assess multimodal Radiomics-based prediction model for prognostic prediction in spinal tumors.
Multicenter Post market clinical follow-up Study on the Safety and Performance of Ennovate® Cervical - Prospective, pure data collection of all Ennovate Cervical patients in Total Indications
The research to be carried out is aimed at patients with metastatic breast cancer, specifically bone metastases. These patients will be recruited from two hospitals in Granada, provided they meet the established inclusion criteria. With this study, it is pretend to demonstrate the benefits of a program of therapeutic exercise and functional recovery of motor control with ultrasound feedback for the improvement of the functional capacity of the women eligible to participate in the study, as well as a positive impact on the quality of life of the patients other than their survival. The effect of the Overcome program will be compared with the usual treatment in this type of pathology. To do this, a pre-intervention evaluation and another at the end of the evaluation of the variables to be measured, such as functional capacity, will be carried out. In addition other evaluation will be carried out, after 6 months to assess the long-term effects. In addition to the three main variables such as functional capacity and quality of life, another relationship of secondary variables will be studied, such as physical state, body composition or pain threshold, among others. This study in its entirety will be carried out by the "Oncology Patient Support Unit - Take Care" in the hands of a multidisciplinary team, carrying out the intervention protocolized by physiotherapists and occupational therapists.
The purpose of this research study is to find out what effects (good and bad) Pembrolizumab and radiosurgery have on participants with high-grade epidural disease of the spine.
This study will develop a whole-of-body markerless tracking method for measuring the motion of the tumour and surrounding organs during radiation therapy to enable real-time image guidance. Routinely acquired patient data will be used to improve the training, testing and accuracy of a whole-of-body markerless tracking method. When the markerless tracking method is sufficiently advanced, according to the PI of each of the data collection sites, the markerless tracking method will be run in parallel to, but not intervening with, patient treatments during data acquisition.
