Filter by:Cancer is one of the leading causes of mortality worldwide and is responsible for an estimated 9.6 million deaths yearly. Cancer-related deaths can be reduced if patients are diagnosed and treated early. Delay in cancer diagnosis can occur at any point along the diagnostic spectrum, from the first observation of symptoms to the start of treatment. Diagnosing cancer when it is still at an early stage, before it has spread, gives surgery, radiotherapy and other treatments the best chance of working. Therefore, early diagnosis is the most important way to improve cancer outcomes. Most of the cancers usually presents with vague and non-alarming symptoms. Most individuals are diagnosed late when the cancer has already spread, and the prognosis is poor. There are over 200 different types of cancer that can cause many different signs and symptoms. Sometimes symptoms affect specific body areas, such as abdomen or skin. But signs can also be more general, and include weight loss, tiredness (fatigue) or unexplained pain. The type of symptoms varies from person to person. The major reasons for not presenting to the GP with symptoms such as these are "not wanting to waste the GP's time" and normalisation of these symptoms. The persistence of a symptom, social influence and awareness encourage help-seeking behaviours in primary care. However, few believe their symptom(s) might be a sign of cancer. Consequently, people might choose to self-manage their symptoms by using over-the-counter medication, and to seek advice from other sources, (pharmacists, family, internet), rather than a primary care physician. RATIONALE FOR CURRENT STUDY An early cancer diagnosis is essential for receiving treatment as early as possible to have the best chance for successful treatment. Early diagnosis of cancer can be challenging. Sometimes, the cancer symptoms resemble common illnesses and could resolve with the use of over-the-counter medications and other remedies until they become persistent or debilitating. The present study focuses on ten cancer forms: colon, oesophageal, stomach, liver, bladder, uterine, vulval, ovarian, endometrial and pancreatic. Patients diagnosed with the cancers mentioned above often report experiencing vague symptoms (such as abdominal or back pain, indigestion, feeling full etc). They often use over-the-counter medication to manage their symptoms before seeing a doctor. Information about how often and what products participants purchase (e.g. pain killers, digestive products and natural remedies) to care for these symptoms could help identify these cancers a few crucial weeks or months earlier and encourage people to seek help sooner from their doctors.
Among urothelial cancers, upper urinary tract urothelial cancers, including renal pelvis and ureteral cancers have a higher incidence rate in Taiwan than Western countries. In particular, the proportion of female patients is similar to that of males. This situation is significantly different from that in foreign countries. The cause is currently uncertain.In the past, the arsenic contamination of groundwater made blackfoot disease become common and malignant in areas. Now, the number of kidney dialysis patients in Taiwan is increasing; and according to statistics, there is a significantly higher incidence of urothelial cancer among kidney dialysis patients. This may be caused by the use of traditional Chinese medicine or other unknown reasons.
GynRAN is an international, multicentre, transversal, diagnostic and non-interventional study carried out in gynecology-obstetrics/gynecological oncology departments that aims to identify a diagnostic signature for gynecological pathologies by analyzing of coding and non-coding RNA contained in patients saliva. The study population consists of patients with clinically symptomatic females with one or more of the gynecological pathologies (endometriosis, adenomyosis, ovarian cysts, fibroids, ovarian/cervical/uterine cancer) and asymptomatic females. The patients concerned by the study will be managed without modification of the care pathway, nor modification of the therapeutic indications, nor modification of the diagnostic or follow-up examinations necessary according to the context, which are carried out according to the local recommendations.
This research study is being done to investigate how Azenosertib affects tumor cells of persistent or recurrent uterine serous carcinoma. The name of the study drug involved in this study is: -Azenosertib (a type of Wee1 inhibitor)
There are currently no studies evaluating the association between diet and the incidence of endometrial polyps. We aim to evaluate the association to provide more recommendations for the early prevention of endometrial polyps.
The main goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate dostarlimab, an immunotherapy drug, as a potential alternative to surgery for early-stage endometrial cancer with Mismatch Repair deficiency, a genetic cause for 20-30% of cases. The study aims to establish dostarlimab's efficacy and safety in early-stage endometrial cancer, exploring its potential as a non surgical option for those unsuitable or unwilling to undergo major surgery, allowing for fertility preservation or addressing specific health conditions. Participants will have seven dostarlimab sessions over 12 months. The treatment plan involves four cycles every three weeks, followed by a three-week break, and then three cycles every six weeks. This research is a promising step toward a new, less invasive treatment choice for patients with specific genetic traits. It expands the range of care options for endometrial cancer.
The New York Stem Cell Foundation (NYSCF) Research Institute is performing this research to accelerate diverse disease research using cells from the body (such as skin or blood cells) to make stem cells and other types of cells, conduct research on the samples, perform genetic testing, and store the samples for future use. Through this research, researchers hope to identify future treatments or even cures for the major diseases of our time.
The goal of this clinical trial is to establish the fraction of patients that achieve a major pathological response (MPR) after 9 cycles of pembrolizumab, with the ultimate aim of informing a follow-up randomized trial. Participants will receive 9 cycles of pembrolizumab before their standard of care hysterectomy.
This is a phase 1 study to evaluate investigational drug RP-6306 in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel in patients with TP53 mutated ovarian or uterine cancer. The dose escalation part of the study will determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) and schedule of RP-6306 in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel and the dose expansion will further assess the safety and tolerability as well as determine the preliminary efficacy of RP-6306 in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel.
This is an open-label, Phase 1 study with a dose expansion cohort of Sacituzumab Govitecan in Combination with Cisplatin in Platinum Sensitive Recurrent Ovarian and Endometrial Cancer. The goal of the study is to determine the optimal dose of sacituzumab govitecan for use in combination with cisplatin for treatment of epithelial ovarian and endometrial cancers.
