To improve outcomes for childhood cancer patients through the implementation of precision medicine.
To evaluate tumor response, survival and adverse effects after precision radiotherapy (SBRT) in melanoma patients with ongoing PD-1 inhibitor treatment that have tumor progression.
Patients with the Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) syndrome are genetically predisposed for developping multiple pancreatic neuro-endocrine tumours (pNET). The management of small (pNET) in both MEN1 and sporadic cases, pose a major clinical challenge. At present, pancreatic surgery is the only curative treatment but it is associated with high morbidity. To reduce the morbidity ascosiated with surgery and thereby potentially improve quality of life for MEN1 patients introduction of less invasive techniques for treatment of pNET is important. High-dose-high precision MR-guided radiotherapy (MRgRT) holds promise as a new less...
Background: Primary or secondary brain tumors (metastases) remain associated with a very poor prognosis linked to significant therapeutic resistance. Thus, glioblastoma, which is the most common and aggressive primary brain tumor in adults, is associated with inevitable relapses within 7 to 10 months and median survival of approximately 12 to 14 months. At the same time, brain metastases are increasingly increasing following better systemic control of other metastatic sites and improvement in detection methods. However, they remain resistant to the latest therapeutic innovations such as immunotherapies or targeted therapies. In...
This study will develop an algorithm of identifying patients with stage IV NSCLC and Melanoma who could benefit from cancer treatment they receive.
Anlotinib is a multi-target receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) targeting tumor angiogenesis and growth. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficiency of contrast enhanced ultrasound in assessing effectiveness of anlotinib in patients with locally advanced, metastatic, or unresectable pheochromocytoma or paraganglioma(PPGL).
This observational study was conducted in patients undergoing elective laparoscopic pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma(PPGL) resection. It mainly answers the following two main questions: 1. What are the risk factors for myocardial injury after laparoscopic PPGL resection？ 2. How to establish the myocardial injury prediction model of laparoscopic PPGL resection? Participants were not required to perform additional research work other than the usual postoperative follow-up within 30 days after surgery. No control group was set in this study, and no additional clinical intervention was performed.
Apatinib, also known as YN968D1, is a small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) that selectively binds to and inhibits vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR-2). This study aims to collect clinical, radiological and histopathology imaging including detailed radiological data, survival data, clinical parameters, molecular pathology and images of HE slices in patients with recurrent gliomas whose are treated with Apatinib, for evaluating the efficacy and safety of Apatinib. Moreover, by leveraging artificial intelligence, this study seeks to construct and refine MR and histopathology imaging based algorithms that are...
Surgical excision is the treatment of choice for stage II, III and resectable stage IV melanoma and is curative in most cases. Given the recent success of immunotherapy for the treatment of patients with advanced metastatic melanoma, the use of immunotherapy has been evaluated in the adjuvant setting for patients at high risk of recurrence. In this context, Nivolumab prolonged Recurrence-Free Survival (RFS) while reducing toxicity compared with Ipilimumab in a phase III clinical trial, and was subsequently FDA-approved in December 2017 for adjuvant treatment of locally advanced melanoma with metastatic lymph node involvement after...
The investigators plan to collect clinical and molecular data, including ICH, PCR, NGS and methylome, from patients operated on for grade 2 or grade 3 meningioma. The purpose of the study is to identify reliable and easy-to-assess predictive factors for recurrence and survival after surgery.
