Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the effectiveness of the ASk Questions in GYnecologic Oncology question prompt list (ASQ-GYO QPL) at improving patient self-efficacy, distress, physician trust, and knowledge compared to usual care during new patient gynecologic oncology visits. Also to determine the acceptability of the ASQ-GYO QPL with new gynecologic oncology patients.
Prospective observational multicenter study, aimed at evaluating the effectiveness on local control and cancer-specific survival of radiochemotherapy followed by interventional radiotherapy in patients affected by vaginal cancer
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of cardunolizumab in combination with/without chemotherapy ± bevacizumab for recurrent or metastatic vulvar and vaginal cancers that are not amenable to radical treatment.
Cancer patients are burdened by an increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE), which has a significant impact on morbidity and mortality. Existing Risk Prediction Models (RPMs), including the widely accepted Khorana Risk Score (KRS), have some limitations when used in certain tumor site populations, such as gynecological cancers. Notably, gynecological patients exhibit a variable risk of VTE based on their specific tumor sites, with ovarian cancer representing the highest risk. Moreover, currently available RPMs lack validation in a broad gynecological population and may fail to effectively stratify VTE risk. GynCAT is a prospective cohort study that will be conducted on female patients with gynecologic malignancies scheduled for systemic antineoplastic treatment. During the screening phase, symptomatic VTE will be excluded, and KRS will be assessed. Pharmacological thromboprophylaxis will be considered and prescribed at clinical judgement, for patients with a KRS score of 3 or higher. Clinical, hematological, biochemical, coagulation, and genetic variables will be collected. Follow-up will last for the entire duration of the antineoplastic treatment line, and VTE events, bleeding events, and mortality will be recorded. The primary objective is the development and validation of an RPM for VTE in gynecologic cancer patients undergoing systemic antineoplastic treatment. Secondary objectives are evaluation of the predictive value of the identified model, comparing it with existing general oncology RPMs; assessment of its performance in predicting mortality; evaluation of VTE incidence in patients with KRSā„3 receiving thromboprophylaxis; identification of risk factors for bleeding in this patient population. The sample size calculation is based on an estimated VTE incidence of 5% over a mean follow-up of 12 months. Hence, a sample size of at least 1,200 patients in the derivation cohort is considered sufficient for the determination of a risk prediction model incorporating up to six predictor variables. A split-sample method will be used, with two-thirds of the study participants randomly assigned to the model derivation cohort (n=1,200) and one-third (n=600) to an independent validation cohort. The total number of patients recruited in the study will thus be of 1,800. A competing risk survival analysis with Fine & Gray model will be used to study the association between prognostic variables and VTE occurrence, considering death as a competitive risk. The RPM will be identified through a bootstrap approach to reduce the risk of overfitting. Discrimination power of the RPM will be assessed using time-dependent Receiving Operating Characteristic curve, and model calibration will be evaluated graphically and with the calculation of relative calibration slopes. In conclusion, this prospective cohort study aims to overcome the limitations of current RPMs in gynecologic cancer patients, improving the accuracy of VTE risk stratification in this population.
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.
Multicenter, randomized, open-label, phase II clinical study comparing Dostarlimab +/- Bevacizumab with standard chemotherapy in patients with gynecological clear cell carcinoma. 198 subjects will be enrolled in this study and will be assigned to three groups in a 1:1:1 ratio. 1. Group A: Dostarlimab monotherapy - First 3 cycles: Dostalimab 500mg every 3 weeks, IV - 4 cycles ~ up to 24 months: Dostalimab 1000mg every 6 weeks, IV 2. Group B: Dostarlimab + Bevacizumab combination therapy - First 3 cycles: Dostalimab 500mg every 3 weeks, IV - 4 cycles ~ up to 24 months: Dostalimab 1000mg every 6 weeks, IV - Bevacizumab administered IV at 15 mg/kg every 3 weeks until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity 3. Group C: General chemotherapy (one of Pegylated liposomal doxorubicin, Doxorubicin, Paclitaxel, and Gemcitabine)
The purpose of this study is to help test an idea designed to foster more supportive talk between providers (doctors or nurse practitioners), patients, and caregivers during an outpatient oncology appointment. A caregiver is the person the patient identifies is primarily involved in their healthcare. This study is collecting your reaction to this idea in order to understand needed changes before we introduce the idea to a larger group of patients.
The goal of this open label, randomized, controlled clinical trial is to assess the benefits of providing Reiki therapy to subjects receiving their first brachytherapy treatment for gynecological malignancies. Participants will either receive a session of Reiki therapy or usual care during the standard wait time between the placement of the brachytherapy device and brachytherapy treatment. Questionnaires will be administered at various time points on the day of the participant's first brachytherapy treatment as well as at the three month follow-up time point. Researchers will compare the intervention (Reiki therapy) and control (usual care) groups to assess the impact of the Reiki therapy on anxiety, pain, state anxiety, depression, and physiological measurements.
A multicenter, open label, single arm dose escalation phase I study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of HRYZ-T101 injection for HPV18 positive solid tumor. The study will investigate RP2D of HRYZ-T101 TCR-T cell injection.
This study aims to assess if a single flap peritoneum vaginoplasty is safe and feasible.The IDEAL framework for evaluation and implementation of surgical techniques will be used. There are two patient groups who are eligible to undergo this procedure. The first group consists of transgender women who either have a shortage of penile skin (so they cannot undergo standard operation technique: penile inversion) or a stenosis of their primary neovagina. The second group consists of women who are born without a vagina or have an acquired short or absent vagina after vaginectomy or hysterectomy because of malignancy of the cervix or vagina. At the moment, standard procedure for both groups in the Amsterdam University Medical Center (UMC) is the sigmoid vaginoplasty, where a part of the bowel is used to form a vaginal cavity. This procedure is risky, because in some cases, the bowel anastomosis is defect. An other more frequent complication, is malodorous excessive discharge. Sometimes accompanied by inflammation of the diversion neovagina. In recent years, the use of the peritoneum vaginoplasty has been described for transgender women. However, the peritoneum is either used as small flaps to deepen the vagina, or the peritoneum is pulled down, which limits the depth of the neovagina. We want to implement a different technique, where the peritoneum is harvested in a single pedicled flap, which is brought down and sutured in the cavity cylinder shaped. The risks are the same as in any laparoscopic surgery, but we suspect the risk of failure of the anastomosis is much lower, as is the chance of a temporary stoma.
