Filter by:Financial distress affects 30-70% of cancer patients and describes the burden that patients experience due to the costs of care (CoC). One reason may be because patients lack the appropriate information on CoC that would help them better plan for and manage their CoC. Therefore, the investigators plan to test a Proactive CoC intervention which includes a discussion with a trained educator on CoC information and a Cost Tracking tool to help patients deal with their CoC.
This is a multicenter, open-label, phase II clinical study, aiming to the evaluate the efficacy and safety of AK104, an anti- PD-1 and CTLA-4 bispecific antibody, in subjects with recurrent or metastatic vulvar cancer not amenable to curative surgery or radiotherapy.
Electrochemotherapy is a local treatment modality with effectiveness comparable to other local ablation techniques. With electrochemotherapy 80% objective response can be achieved and is suitable for the treatment of different types of tumors. The method is based on increased drug delivery to cells previously exposed to electroporation. The most commonly used cytotoxic agents are bleomycin and cisplatin. The aim of the proposed clinical trial is to determine the efficacy, feasibility and safety of electrochemotherapy in the treatment of vulvar cancer.
ICK-Gyn is a prospective, multicentric, non-interventional investigator-initiated trial (IIT) that aims to investigate the prognostic value of CRP kinetics in advanced or metastatic gynecological malignancies under immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy on the objective response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS).
This prospective study evaluated the clinical implementation value of an optical surface monitoring system (OSMS) in the radiotherapy setup for patients with vulvar cancer, compared to standard laser-based setup
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.
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.
Vulvar cancer affects the external genitalia of women. This type of cancer is uncommon, arising mostly in older women and has been neglected in research and clinical trials. Over the recent years, investigators have learned that the most common type of vulvar cancer; vulvar squamous cell carcinoma (VSCC) develops from pre-cancerous lesions via different pathways. One pathway is associated with human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, and another is related to chronic inflammatory skin conditions (and not HPV). The VSCCs arising from these two principal pathways; HPV- associated (HPV A) and HPV-independent (HPV I), behave differently with different risks of recurrence, and different response to treatments. HPV-I VSCC are further defined by mutations in TP53 (Tumor Protein 53), which identify a group of patients with aggressive disease. Currently treatment is the same for all women with vulvar cancer, and consequently many women may be overtreated, and many women are not treated enough. Given evolving knowledge of this disease, this 'one size fits all' approach may no longer be appropriate. The investigators aim in this study is to see if personalizing surgical therapy for patients with vulvar cancer based on HPV and TP53 status will improve outcomes.
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.
Patients with vulvar cancer who underwent multiple treatments (surgery and radiation therapy or chemoradiation, radiation therapy or chemoradiation and chemotherapy), or patients not eligible for standard therapies. The study aims to: - Evaluate the oncology response to electroporation after administration of Bleomycin (BLM) + carboplatinum (CBP )to BLM alone in terms of local progression-free survival (LPFS) in women with relapsed vulvar cancer after multimodal treatments. - Compare quality of life (HR-QoL) in the two groups of patients with questionnaires (FACT-V, FACT-PAL, E5-5L-D5). - To compare Overall Survival in the two study arms. - To compare local and systemic toxicity, morbidity and mortality, intraoperative and post-operative complications among the two study arms. - To compare costs and cost-effectiveness between the two study arms.
