Meningioma, the most common intracranial primary tumor of the central nervous system predominantly affects people in their fifties. Meningiomas are generally subdivided into two entities: a priori non-aggressive meningiomas (grade 1), and meningiomas at high risk of aggressive behavior (grade 2/atypical and 3/anaplastic). The current conventional treatments for meningioma are surgery and radiotherapy. When these treatments are no longer feasible, meningiomas are considered refractory irrespectively of grade, and in these rare entities, the therapeutic arsenal is reduced to the few treatments that have shown limited efficacy. ...
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the survival benefit of local therapy combination with target therapy in lung cancer brain metastases with EGFR mutation. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is local therapy performed before or after target therapy would provide survival benefit ? - What kind of local therapy combining with target therapy would provide survival benefit, neurosurgical resection or radiotherapy?
The purpose of this study is to pilot the use of community education and digital dermatology to increase the early detection of curable melanomas.
An international multi-centre, stratified, open, randomized, comparator-controlled, parallel-group phase II study comparing adjuvant treatment with 177Lu-DOTATATE to best supportive care in patients after resection of neuroendocrine liver metastases.
This is a multicenter, two-arm, open-label, randomized controlled phase III clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tunlametinib capsule in comparison with the combination chemotherapy of investigator's choice in advanced melanoma patients with NRAS mutation who have received immunotherapy before. Subjects were stratified according to the baseline lactate dehydrogenase level and chemotherapy.
This study aims to compare the surgical outcomes of laparoscopic spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy using the Kimura technique versus the Warshaw technique. The primary focus is on the rates of unplanned splenectomy, occurrence of severe complications, as well as intraoperative and perioperative outcomes of both techniques.
ReciDOPA is a phase II, single-stage randomized, multicenter, prospective trial assessing the efficacy of an irradiation protocol based on Intensity-modulated radiation therapy with simultaneous-integrated boost guided by FDOPA-PET in patient with recurrent glioblastoma.
In newly diagnosed glioblastoma patients aged 70 years or older who are suitable for concurrent temozolomide, the optimal dose of radiation therapy is controversial . The purpose of this study is to compare conventional radiotherapy of 60 Gy (6 weeks) versus hypofractionated radiotherapy of 40 Gy (3 weeks) in terms of overall survival as the primary endpoint along with progression-free survival, toxicity, quality of life, and prognostic biomarkers.
It is a single-center, prospective, observational，non-randomized study of newly diagnosed glioblastoma patients conducted in a tertiary hospital. The investigators examine the psychological stress, immune biomarker changes, quality of life, and disease progression of patients with glioblastoma at five-time points. The study had two cohorts, a high-stress cohort and a low-stress cohort, which are grouped after initial recruitment. Both groups undergo total resection of tumors and received 3 months of standardized treatment with radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Neither participants nor doctors but the researcher can choose which group...
It is a single-center, prospective, observational, non-randomized study of newly diagnosed diffuse astrocytoma patients conducted in a tertiary hospital. The investigators conduct an eight-year follow-up, including patients' psychological stress, immune biomarker changes, quality of life, and disease progression of patients towards secondary glioma after the first definite diagnosis. In the first year after diagnosis, patients are followed up four times at 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months. After that, patients are followed up semiannually. The study had two cohorts, a high-stress cohort and a low-stress cohort, which are...
