This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of silibinin in preventing recurrence in the brain after complete resection of a brain metastasis (BM) from non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) or breast cancer (BC).
Family caregivers of patients with a primary brain tumor experience a high caregiving load including assistance with activities of daily living without any formal training. It is not surprising that this vulnerable caregiver population reports high levels of distress along with numerous caregiving-related concerns, which may compromise their ability to provide quality care. This project will examine the feasibility and initial evidence for efficacy of a caregiving skills intervention aiming to improve caregiver and patient psychological health; caregiving efficacy and role adjustment; and reduce patient cancer-related symptoms and...
Background and study aims: Computerised Tomography (CT) head scans are frequently requested by Emergency Department (ED) clinicians as one of the investigations for their patients. This often causes a delay when waiting for specialist radiologists to report the findings of the scan. The purpose of this study is to see if online training can improve the ability of ED clinicians to interpret the scans themselves, to a level sufficient to make clinical decisions based on their findings and to explore what aspects of this process they find most challenging. Participants: Emergency Department clinicians who are working in the...
This clinical trial constructs and tests a novel multinuclear metabolic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequence in patients with glioma (brain tumor) that is newly diagnosed or has come back (recurrent). This trial aims to develop new diagnostic imaging technology that may bridge gaps between early detection and diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment in brain cancer.
Sinonasal mucosal melanoma (SNMM) is a very rare tumor, and SNMM is highly aggressive in nature, with a 5-year survival rate of about 20~30%. Most patients underwent local recurrence and distant metastasis within one or two years of treatment. There is no unified standard for the treatment of SNMM.The principle of treatment for surgically resectable stage T3 and partial T4 SNMM is complete resection of the primary tumor, combined with postoperative radiotherapy. While locally unresectable SNMM has a poorer prognosis, lower incidence, fewer clinical data have been reported. This study will explore the role of preoperative...
Tumor Treating Fields targeted to liver metastases may improve outcomes for patients with metastatic uveal melanoma treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors.
This study explored the feasibility of dual-energy CT in head and lung tumors. Dual-energy CT can achieve quantitative CT imaging based on traditional imaging by dual-energy spectral imaging, and enhance the clarity of head and lung tumors. In this study, we will prospectively explore the image accuracy and delineation accuracy of dual energy CT in radiotherapy to verify whether dual energy CT performs better with conventional CT.
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn whether delivering spine radiosurgery in a single large dose is better than delivering spine radiosurgery over 3 smaller doses. Researchers also want to learn about the effects of a single dose on participant's symptoms, pain, and quality-of-life.
This is a phase II, single arm, open-label, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Sintilimab combined with IBI310 and Surufatinib for the treatment of high-grade advanced-neuroendocrine neoplasm
This is an ongoing Phase 2, open-label, single-center, non-randomized study of sintilimab (one anti-PD-1 antibody same as nivolumab approved in China) plus bevacizumab administered in a low dosage schedule in adult (≥ 18 years) participants with a clinical relapse or circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA)-level relapse of Oligodendroglioma(WHO III). This study has three non-comparative study groups. Cohort 1 and Cohort 2 will receive the same study drug sintilimab 200mg and bevacizumab 3mg/kg every 3 weeks. Cohort 3 will take only standard treatment. A stringent three-step non-randomized process will be used to assign participants to one of...
