In the early years of life and during adolescence, physical activity is crucial for good development of motor skills. It is even more so for those children and young people who are forced to undergo anti-cancer therapies and therefore undergo long periods of hospitalization (often bedridden) and prolonged periods of physical inactivity. The research project "Sport Therapy" was born with the aim of demonstrating that, through targeted physical activity administered by the sports physician in collaboration with the pediatrician hematologist, it is possible to facilitate the full recovery of these patients, avoiding the high risk of chronic diseases related to a sedentary lifestyle...
To improve outcomes for childhood cancer patients through the implementation of precision medicine.
The primary objective of this study is to create a highly multidimensional and multicentric database for melanoma that encompasses cohorts of children, adolescent and young adults. This database will be used to perform survival analysis and evaluate sentinel lymph node (SLNB) positivity in CAYA. The secondary objectives to be met are the following: - Adaptation and optimization of algorithms: work on optimizing existing precision medicine algorithms, which are currently being used in adult patient care, for their application within pediatric and young adult populations. - Implementation of transfer learning: given the limitations associated with pediatric ...
The primary objective is to evaluate the possibility of using minimally and non-invasive technologies (skin patch and breath analyzer) based on the detection of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) for the early identification of metastases. The secondary objective is to evaluate the usability of these technologies in the follow up of high-risk melanoma patients.
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 invasive treatment option for pNET. The aim of...
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 context, innovative strategies are necessary...
This study will develop an algorithm of identifying patients with stage IV NSCLC and Melanoma who could benefit from cancer treatment they receive.
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 able to predict the responses to Apatinib of...
