The goal of this study is to propose the first direct comparison of Ga-68-DOTATATE PET/CT or PET/MR and Ga-68-DOTATOC PET/CT in patients with meningioma.
Glioblastoma multiform (GBM) is the most common malignant primary brain tumor in adults. Despite maximal treatment tumor relapse occurs regularly accompanied by unfavourable prognosis. Among other reasons, it is believed that this could be in part due to the existence of the so-called tumor stem cells (TSCs), a cellular subfraction within GBM which escape therapy by being highly resistant to irradiation and chemotherapy and thus constituting the source of tumor recurrence. GBM, like many other cancers, show a sub-population of aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) overexpressing TSCs. More specifically, ALDH1A1, a cytoplasmatic isoform of ALDH, proved to be a novel stem cell marker in...
68Ga-DOTATATE-based radionuclides are a novel modality in the diagnosis and treatment of central nervous system meningioma. DOTATATE is a ligand for the SSTR (somatostatin receptor), which is expressed in meningioma but not in normal brain or bone. It is also more effective than MRI in delineating tumor, which is the current imaging standard for assessing meningioma. For radiation planning, it can help to reduce the risk of geometrical miss, identify area that require dose-escalation, and reduce dose to normal tissue. The purpose of the study is to compare the radiation therapy (RT) contouring and planning for meningioma with and without the use of 68Ga-DOTATATE-PET
We aim to compare the efficacy and safety of double Dose of Third-generation EGFR-TKI Plus Intrathecal Pemetrexed Versus double Dose of Third-generation EGFR-TKI in patients with leptomeningeal progression following the treatment of routine dose of EGFR-TKI,
The primary aim of this clinical study, 'Dual Energy CT - a tool for delineation of tumor and organs at risk in radiotherapy' (DART) is to evaluate whether dual-energy CT (DECT) is at least as effective as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in delineating both tumors and organs at risk (OARs) in patients referred for radiotherapy (RT). This primary aim will be explored in patient groups where the performance of DECT for RT has been described in the literature (but mostly based on signal-to-noise ratio and/or contrast-to-noise ratio), such as brain metastases (sub-cohort 'DART Brain') and head and neck cancer (sub-cohort 'DART H&N'). Additionally, DART will explore diagnoses not...
This clinical trial is an adaptive study of a novel vimentin inhibitor in cancers. It is an open label, multicentre, single ascending dose level in phase I and cohort exploration in phase II. Primary objective is to evaluate safety and tolerability of kesonotide as a monotherapy in participants with advanced/metastatic solid cancers. Secondary objective is to characterise the pharmacokinetics of kesonotide. Phase I study will enrol 20-32 participants and Phase II approximately 80 participants.
Exploratory study to evaluate the effect and safety of the use of Ocoxin® oral solution on the quality of life of paediatric patients with advanced stage solid tumours.
The goal of this observational study is to observe the lung tumor development in lung tumor patients with long-term sleep disorder. The main questions it aims to answer are: - will long-term sleep disorder promote the malignancy of lung tumor - if so, how exactly will the microenvironment of lung tumor change Participants will receive PSQI scale and MRI functional brain imaging before surgery, blood and tumor tissue will be collected during the surgery. Researchers will set non-sleep disorder group as control group to see if lung tumor microenvironment change when long-term sleep disorder exists in lung tumor patiens.
Effects of a physical therapy program combined with manual lymphatic drainage on shoulder pain and function, quality of life, lymphedema incidence in breast cancer patients with axillary web syndrome following axillary dissection: A randomized controlled trial.
Basis: Brain metastasis is very common in breast cancer, and HER2 positivity is a risk factor for high incidence of brain metastasis, with approximately 50% of HER2+ MBC cases experiencing brain metastasis. The reason for this is that as the efficacy of HER2-targeted therapy improves, the survival of these patients significantly extends, leading to an increase in the occurrence rate of brain metastasis events in the late stage of MBC. In the systemic treatment of HER2+ breast cancer brain metastasis, various HER2-targeted drugs have been explored, but none have achieved satisfactory therapeutic effects. Therefore, it is imperative to explore new treatment options. ADC drugs...
