This prospective study aims to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of an integrated model using fragmentomic profiles of plasma cell-free DNA for early detection of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors.
This is a health services intervention study aimed at understanding the impact of intensive multi-disciplinary care compared with standard care on patient-reported symptom outcomes and prognostic awareness in patients with brain metastases.
Operandi project aims to address unmet clinical needs in the current management of GEP-NETs treated with PRRT by exploring new opportunities provided by imaging-based artificial intelligence (AI) and data augmentation, simultaneous PET-MRI imaging, and novel approaches to increase patient selection and PRRT efficacy (genomic profiling, radiopotentiators, and new radionuclides). The study aim to identify predictive and early markers indicative of PRRT effectiveness based on a large prospective cohort of GEP-NET patients. This cohort will be used to uncover relevant predictive signatures within the morphological, functional, and ...
In this pilot study, the investigators propose a multimodal evaluation of the brain connectivity of brain tumor patients, in order to better understand the effects induced by focal lesions on brain structure and function, as well as brain plasticity mechanisms that may occur in such condition. The investigators aim at drawing a multimodal brain connectivity map of focally brain-damaged patients, with a view to improve onco-functional neurosurgical practices.
MAGNETO is a single-centre, non-randomised, open label Phase I clinical trial of an Advanced Therapy Investigational Medicinal Product (ATIMP) in children and teenagers aged 1-16 years with relapsed or refractory neuroblastoma. The study will assess the feasibility of generating the ATIMP (GD2 CAR T cells) and the safety of administering the ATIMP in patients with relapsed or refractory neuroblastoma.
Treatment of childhood ependymoma, the second most frequent pediatric brain tumor, is based on surgery and radiation therapy. However, 50% relapse, mainly locally. Progress in imaging, molecular biology and radiotherapy ballistics has led us to propose the EPENDYMOMICS project, a multi-omics approach using artificial intelligence to detect the predictive characteristics of relapse, and to define innovative radiotherapy targets using multimodal imaging. We previously reported that the relapse sites are mainly located in the high-dose radiotherapy zone and that there appear to be prognostic factors for relapse based on anatomical and ...
This feasibility study will assess the clinical potential of a new imaging approach to detect viable high grade glioma (HGG) in pediatric and adult patients after standard of care radiation therapy (RT) with or without concurrent temozolomide (TMZ). Study participants will undergo simultaneous positron emission tomography/magnetic resonance imaging (PET/MRI) with O-([2-[F-18]fluoroethyl)-L-tyrosine (FET, amino acid transport) and 1H-1-(3-[F-18]fluoro-2-hydroxypropyl)-2-nitroimidazole (FMISO, hypoxia) at the time of standard of care imaging after completion of RT. The presence of viable tumor at this time point will be assessed on a...
Differential diagnoses of MVNT include DNT (dysembryoplastic neuroepithelial tumor), low-grade gliomas, cortical dysplasias or even hamartomas.
This study will investigate whether or not intensified radiation therapy adapted during the radiation treatment course to high-risk, treatment-resistant tumor regions will improve overall survival in patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma (GBM) compared to conventional chemoradiotherapy.
The purpose of the research study is to test new methods that could improve diagnosis and assessment of brain tumors. One of these methods is a new MR (magnetic resonance) imaging technique called magnetic resonance fingerprinting (MRF), which allows for rapidly scanning the patient and provides quantitative information on tumor tissue. The investigators will compare the data gathered from MR Fingerprinting with other imaging tests, clinical information, treatment details and biopsy results to evaluate the accuracy of this new technique.
