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).
This study focuses on rare brain tumors, which are heterogeneous entities with different morphological, biological, and clinical characteristics. Due to their rarity, many of these tumors fall under the RARECARE definition of rare tumors. The main objective of the study is to standardize care models and pathways for patients with rare brain tumors, using Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) techniques to identify specific predictors of postoperative outcomes. The study includes both retrospective and prospective phases, with the collection of clinical, cognitive, and psychological data at various time points. Patients will undergo an early neuro-cognitive...
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 Emergency Departments of participating sites between...
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.
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 the study groups. Neither participants nor...
The SIOPEN BIOPORTAL is a prospective non-therapeutic multi-centre international study aimed at developing an international Registry linked to a Virtual Biobank for all the patients with peripheral neuroblastic tumor within countries of the SIOPEN network. The overall aim of this study is to provide a GDPR-compliant framework to collect basic clinical annotations, biological and genetic features and information about the location on biospecimens for all the patients with a peripheral neuroblastic tumor including neuroblastoma, ganglioneuroblastoma and ganglioneuroma in the SIOPEN network. This study will support data and sample management and intensify cross-borders data...
This is an open-label, multi-center, Phase 1/2 study of the brain-penetrant MEK inhibitor, mirdametinib (PD-0325901), in patients with pediatric low-grade glioma (pLGG).
Sleep disordered breathing (SDB) is one of the most common sleep disorders, including obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), central sleep apnea (CSA), sleep-related hypoventilation, hypoxemia, etc., with OSA being the most prevalent. Also, SDB shows high comorbidities with multisystem diseases. Furthermore, compared to patients with pure SDB, those comorbid with SDB and other disorders like cardiometabolic dysfunction and cognitive impairment experience poorer quality of life, higher rate of disease progression and mortality, and a greater economic burden. Currently, there are limited cohorts to study the associations between SDB and multisystem diseases. The aim of this study is...
