Central nervous system (CNS) tumors are the most common solid malignancies among children. Although some types of CNS tumors like medulloblastomas and low-grade gliomas are widespread and well-studied, there is a huge number of rare diseases that need further research. This international registry aims to establish a large multicenter database of pediatric and young adult patients with rare embryonal tumors of the central nervous system and describe the clinical presentations, diagnostics, treatment regimens, and outcomes. Embryonal tumors with multilayered rosettes (ETMR), FOXR2-activated CNS neuroblastoma, cribriform neuroepithelial tumor, and CNS tumor with BCOR internal...
Retinoblastoma (RB) is a primary eye cancer that forms in the back of the eye of infants and toddlers. Traditionally, RB is diagnosed without a biopsy; tumor can only be studied once an eye has been surgically removed. Given this limitation, we use aqueous humor (AH), the clear fluid in the front of the eye to detect specific markers, or information, that comes from the tumor itself.
This is a double-center, single-arm, phase 2 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of R-CDOP regimen combined with intrathecal methotrexate in chemo-naive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma patients with high-risk of CNS relapse.
The purpose of this study is to determine if treatment with a single dose of RE104 for Injection reduces depressive symptoms or depressive symptoms mixed with anxiety symptoms in participants with Adjustment Disorder due to cancer or other illnesses such as Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), Multiple Sclerosis (MS), Parkinson's Disease (PD) or Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) as compared to active-placebo.
In recent years, the prognosis for BRAFV600E-mutant metastatic melanoma has been transformed with targeted therapies combining BRAF and MEK inhibitors (dabrafenib-trametinib and encorafenib-cobimetinib), which have improved progression-free survival and overall survival. However, adverse events are very frequent, and a significant proportion of patients progress secondarily. Several clinical studies have shown that inter-individual variability in plasma exposure to BRAF inhibitors (dabrafenib, vemurafenib) or MEK inhibitors (trametinib) may contribute in part to the occurrence of severe toxicities, and on the efficiency of the treatment. To our knowledge, no data are currently...
CAN-RWE is an observational study that is following 500 children who have authorizations for medical cannabis for two years from across Canada.
This is a multicenter, non-interventional, observational real-world study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Taletrectinib in ROS1-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with brain metastases. Patients deemed eligible for Taletrectinib by their physicians were enrolled after providing informed consent. Taletrectinib will be administered according to clinical practice and data on treatment patterns, clinical outcomes, and safety will be collected during routine evaluations.
Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) may be recommended in G1- G2 GEP-NET patients with disease progression on somatostatine analogues therapy (LUTATHERA®). However, there are several diseases, including neuroendocrine neoplasia not originating from the digestive tract, for which the efficacy of PRRT has already been demonstrated, but which are not currently within the indications of LUTATHERA and therefore cannot benefit from it (i.e. bronchopulmonary, ovarian, renal NETs and neuroendocrine carcinomas). Moreover, the role of PRRT is also accepted in Pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PPGLs), Meningiomas, but also as a salvage therapy in pre-treated NET pts, and other...
The research aims to develop a novel pathological technology, including rapid whole-mount tissue H&E & IHC staining protocol and high-resolution nonlinear optical microscopy imaging system, to intraoperatively assess brain tumor grade, types and other biological parameters.
The research aims to establish a big database of multiple kinds of brain tissues and prove the relevance of human brain tissue models and hiPSCs-derived organoid models.
