Filter by:The purpose of the trial is to establish the tolerability of tisotumab vedotin (HuMax-TF-ADC) dosed three times every four weeks (3q4wk) in a mixed population of patients with specified solid tumors.
Primary, Secondary, and Exploratory Objective(s): Primary objective: To evaluate the effect of interventions on 1st dose uptake of HPV vaccine.
This primary goal of this study is to assess whether patient whose parents watch a standardized digital video using the integrated digital approach during a routine office visit are more likely to accept a dose of HPV vaccine (1st, 2nd, or 3rd dose) compared to those not completing the program. The study team anticipates eligible patients in the intervention clinics to have higher rates of HPV vaccine acceptance (1st, 2nd, or 3rd doses) than patients in the usual care comparison clinics. Additionally, the study team is interested in determining the impact of the integrated system on clinical workflow by measuring the number of minutes of each patient office visit when using the system compared to the number of minutes of each visit in offices where the system is not used. Although this is a descriptive/exploratory aim, our expectation is that the THEO system will have minimal impact on patient flow.
The primary objective of this study is to determine the feasibility of detecting the sentinel lymph node (SLN) in patients with early invasive cervical cancer using a combined radioisotope and blue dye technique. The investigators hypothesize that the sentinel lymph node (first node draining the tumour/cervix) for early stage cervical cancer represents the status of the regional lymph node basin (pelvic lymph nodes) and identification of a negative SLN would negate the need for complete pelvic lymphadenectomy.
The purpose of this study is to determine if hypnotic relaxation therapy is a more effective intervention for improving self-image in women who have been diagnosed with breast or gynecologic cancer when compared to progressive muscle relaxation therapy.
The aim of this study is to assess: 1. Evaluation of the feasibility of laparoscopic nerve sparing radical hysterectomy type III/C1 as regard surgical technique, blood loss and operative time. 2. Evaluate patients' outcome as regard bladder function. in order to preserve the function of the bladder and the rectum, it is necessary to modify the traditional procedures, so as to identify the precise anatomical information directing the technique for optimal preservation of bladder function at the time of radical hysterectomy. The laparoscopic technique offers several well-known advantages. Under the magnified view of the laparoscope, the anatomy can be clearly visualized to allow for the meticulous and precise dissection of the para-cervical structures and areolar tissue, including the blood vessels and the nerves. Laparoscopic identification (neurolysis) of the inferior hypogastric nerve and inferior hypogastric plexus is a feasible procedure for trained laparoscopic surgeons who have a good knowledge not only of the retroperitoneal anatomy but also of the pelvic neuro-anatomy as this qualification could prohibit long-term bladder and voiding dysfunction during nerve-sparing radical hysterectomy
The objective of this study is to evaluate the outcome of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 (CIN-II) patients followed up without treatment for 24 months according to p16 and ki-67 immunohistochemical staining and to the expression of NK cell receptors.
The treatment of cervical tumors depends on the stage of the disease. In advanced forms (nodal and / or local extension to the vagina and / or parameters) , radiotherapy associated with curietherapy , plays a major role. Until recently this association was the standard treatment for advanced stage uterine cancer. With this combination, rates of local failures (evolutionary prosecution and local recurrences) were 20 to 50% in stages IIb and 50-75 % for stage III. More than 50% for patients with a cervical cancer locally advanced (FIGO stages II / IV) . The standard treatment, external radiotherapy followed by curietherapy allows expect survival rates at 5 years for approximately 30-45 %. For ten years, numerous studies have evaluated the addition of concurrent chemotherapy to radiotherapy in cancer of the cervix. More than 19 randomized trials have been published. A meta-analysis of these trials was undertaken to assess the role of radiochemotherapy in cancers of the cervix. The first meta-analysis published by the Cochrane Collaborative Group, taking into account 4580 patient, shows an improvement in survival, both in terms of progression free survival and overall survival for patients treated with radio chemotherapy respectively 16% and 12 % (p < 0.0001). The rate of metastasis is also decreased (p < 0.0001). Survival rates were significantly better when platinum salt was used ( p < 0.0001 ) . However, no clinical benefit of chemoradiotherapy has been demonstrated for tumors stages [1, 2] locally advanced, possibly due to small number of patients. The investigators have previously shown that antiviral agents used in preclinical models, Cidofovir® causes the selective radiosensitization of cells infected by the papillomavirus (HPV). This trial proposes to study a new concept to increase radiochemotherapy efficiency: the modulation of the expression of viral oncoproteins HPV virus by an antiviral agent.
Social determinants of health (e.g. the income, education, and environment of patients) may exert greater influence on health outcomes than traditional clinical factors (e.g. lab results, diagnoses, and family history). Calls for integrating primary care and public health are therefore increasing, but merging these domains of care is logistically difficult. Research is lacking on the incremental benefit of adding public health data at the practice level-- in improving either health outcomes or care delivery. This proof of concept pilot will merge data from electronic health records (EHRs) with community vital signs, a set of metrics that describes key community resources that affect health. The investigators will identify resource poor communities, or cold spots, based on four variables (education, poverty, life expectancy, and access to healthy foods) at the census tract level - referred to as a community vital sign. The hypothesis is that patients coming from cold spots are more likely to have worse health outcomes and that clinicians will deliver better care if they know a patient's community context and his/her specific social needs. This study will involve 12 primary care practices in Northern Virginia that care for more than 170,000 patients. Patient addresses will be geocoded for each practice and determine which patients reside in cold spots for each community vital sign. The variation for each community vital sign for each practice's patients will be calculated and a bivariate and regression analyses will be used to determine whether coming from a cold spot is associated with worse clinical quality metrics. 15 clinicians will be alerted when they see a patient from a cold spot, patients will complete a social needs survey, and clinicians will prospectively document through surveys whether such knowledge affects interpersonal interactions (such as time spent with patients and the use of clearer language) or clinical management (such as referrals to care coordination or community resources). By pragmatically integrating community vital signs into care, this innovative proposal will seek to understand which community data clinicians value, how these data might influence care, and how best to incorporate these data into clinical and population care.
