Filter by: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.
This clinical trial studies how well an electronic (e)-health intervention (day-by-day) woks in managing fears or worries about cancer growing, spreading, or getting worse (progression) in patients with stage III or IV gynecologic cancer. Fear and worries about cancer progression or recurrence (coming back) are common concerns. This may contribute to concerns related to illness, worries, and uncertainty about the future. Day by Day is adapted from a program called "Conquer Fear" which was shown to benefit patients with early-stage cancer. Day-by-day intervention may help refocus patient thoughts and help patients learn skills to manage anxiety and fears.
The primary purpose of the study is to determine which of four components (symptom-burden tailored app, exercise partner, oncology provider engagement, coaching) added to a core intervention of a wearable activity tracker and commercially available app, will improve physical activity. The findings will generate meaningful knowledge about how to best increase physical activity in older gynecologic cancer patients receiving systemic cancer therapies to improve quality of life and cancer-specific survival.
This is a phase II clinical trial to assess the clinical activity of immunotherapy with E7 TCR-T cells for metastatic HPV-associated cancers. HPV-associated cancers in include cervical, throat, penile, vulvar, vaginal, anal, and other cancers. Participants will receive a conditioning regimen, E7 TCR-T cells, and aldesleukin. Clinical response to treatment will be determined.
The goal of this study is to determine the feasibility of administration of a single dose of E7 TCR-T cells as induction therapy prior to definitive treatment (chemoradiation or surgery) of locoregionally advanced HPV-associated cancers. The intent of E7 TCR-T cell treatment is to shrink or eliminate tumors and thereby facilitate definitive therapy and increase overall survival. This study seeks to determine 1) if E7 TCR-T cell can be administered without undue delay in definitive treatment, 2) the tumor response rate to E7 TCR-T cell treatment, 3) and the disease-free survival rate at 2 and 5 years. Participants will undergo an apheresis procedure to obtain T cells that will be genetically engineered to generate E7 TCR-T cells. They will receive a conditioning regimen, a single infusion of their own E7 TCR-T cells, and adjuvant aldesleukin. Participants will follow up to assess safety and determine tumor response and will return to their primary oncology team for definitive therapy.
The aim of this study is to explore the feasibility and effectiveness of conducting a mindfulness and home-based walking and strength training program on fatigue, psychological outcomes and quality of life for gynecological cancer survivors. The intervention consists of a 8 week mindfulness and home based walking and strengthening program for gynecology survivors. It will be delivered through a specifically designed app. The aim would be to gradually increase exercise and mindfulness levels so participants start to achieve the recommended levels of activity per week. Participants will be recruited via cancer Charites and their service users either directly and through social media (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter). Both groups will receive an intervention either mindfulness alone or mindfulness and exercise. Assessments will be taken at baseline (0 weeks) and post intervention (8 weeks). Both groups will complete the same assessments at the same time-points.
The study will evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of 9-valent HPV recombinant vaccine in Chinese healthy females16 to 26 years of age.
To access the immune persistence of Chinese women aged 9-45 years after receiving quadrivalent HPV vaccine with the immunization schedule of 0, 2 and 6 months.
Brachytherapy for gynecological cancers will be studied retrospectively.
This clinical trial compares the use of ultrasound for the detection of sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs) to the standard of care (which varies depending on cancer treatment). The ultrasound contrast agent is called Sonazoid and it consists of tiny gas-filled bubbles about the side of red blood cells. Diagnostic procedures, such as ultrasound with Sonazoid, may help identify more SLNs than standard of care in patients with cervical, vaginal, or vulvar cancer.
