A study is being performed to observe whether a novel type of brain imaging using a technique called PET-MRI may provide useful information in the 'mapping' of adult primary brain tumours. It employs a radiolabelled molecule targeting a particular molecule called PSMA which is hypothesised to be a marker of aggression in primary brain tumours. 'Mapping' of the concentration and distribution of this molecule within brain tumours via PET-MRI may provide vital clinical information regarding the extent and timing of treatment.
The purpose of this study:(1) Development of a new risk classification model for childhood medulloblastoma. (2) Evaluation and improvement of existing individualized treatment protocols.
For cancer patients who have failed conventional chemotherapy or are inoperable, targeted therapies-which block specific proteins involved in tumor growth-and immunotherapies-which activate T cells around the tumor to induce tumor cell death-have emerged as powerful treatment options. These therapies often result in longer survival with fewer side effects compared to traditional chemotherapy. However, a significant proportion of patients do not respond to either targeted therapies or immunotherapies, and treatment options for these individuals remain extremely limited. One of the most notable immunotherapies, immune checkpoint inhibitors, works by blocking immune checkpoint...
The objective of this study is to evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Efficacy of BL-M14D1 in Subjects with locally Advanced or Metastatic Small Cell Lung Cancer and Other Neuroendocrine Tumors
This project seeks to evaluate the capabilities of new Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) devices, which use light to measure brain activity, for monitoring how the brain and body react after a serious head injury (TBI), particularly in the immediate and shortly following periods. Data recorded from these devices will help determine if they can effectively monitor additional complications and outcomes in adults over 18 with severe TBIs in a specialised intensive care unit for brain injuries (NCCU) at Addenbrooke's Hospital (Cambridge, UK). We will use two different NIRS devices similar to those currently used in the NCCU but with extra improvements. Both devices are proven to...
A Prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled phase II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of PD-L1 monoclonal antibody combined with vinorelbine + cyclophosphamide + capecitabine (VEX) metronomic chemotherapy and concurrent or delayed radiotherapy in patients with advanced HER2-negative breast cancer with brain metastasis
This clinical trial aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of PROSOMNIA Sleep Therapy (PSTx) for individuals suffering from chronic insomnia, sleep deprivation, and REM sleep disorders. Chronic insomnia, characterized by difficulty falling or staying asleep, significantly affects patients and quality of life, mood, and cognitive function. REM sleep disorders, in which the body struggles to enter or maintain restful REM sleep, can worsen these issues. The trial introduces a novel therapy using anesthesia-induced sleep, targeting sleep homeostasis and improving sleep architecture. Objectives: The primary goals of the trial are to determine: 1. Whether PROSOMNIA Sleep Therapy...
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a mobile app program for people with a history of cancer can help treat distress. The main questions it aims to answer is: Do participants use the Tools for Coping with Cancer Calm Health mobile app and do they find it helpful? Does the Tools for Coping with Cancer Calm Health mobile app improve mood, quality of life, and help with coping? Participants will be asked to use a 13-session self-management program (Tools for Coping with Cancer) housed within the Calm Health app. Participants will use this app on their own device, in their own home. Participants will have access to the program for 8 weeks and will be asked to work...
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical usefulness of dynamic [18F]FDG PET imaging in assessing brain metastasis post stereotactic radiotherapy to separate true progression from the treatment-related changes.
Glioblastoma is a brain tumor with a very poor prognosis, affecting around 2,400 new patients every year. Current treatments do not provide good control of the disease. In view of the therapeutic impasse, it is necessary to develop new strategies. CAR-T cells (Chimeric antigen receptor T cells) represent a highly promising therapy for the treatment of incurable cancers, including glioblastoma. This treatment aims to destroy cancer cells by relying on the patient's own immune system. CAR-T cells are generated from the patient's own immune cells, more specifically T lymphocytes, which are genetically modified to express a tumor-specific receptor on their surface. CAR-T cells bind to...
