A single center, Phase I clinical trial to demonstrate safety and efficacy of LauT-1, autologous "New York Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma-1 T-Cell Receptor (NY-ESO-1 TCR)-directed T cells in combination with non-myeloablative (NMA) lymphodepleting chemotherapy and low dose irradiation (LDI) in patients with NY-ESO-1 positive sarcoma and melanoma.
: The evaluation of gliomas in imaging represents a real challenge today, at the initial diagnosis, for therapeutic planning or follow-up treatment of these lesions. There is an urgent need for non-invasive imaging tools to evaluate a glioma throughout its management. At present, the diagnosis of certainty is only obtained through an anatomo-pathological analysis with sampling during an invasive procedure (surgery or biopsy). Magnetic resonance imaging, through perfusion, diffusion imaging or spectroscopy is developing in gliomas. However, it remains time-consuming and is not always available. At the same time, positron emission tomography (PET) with amino acids is an...
To learn if consolidative stereotactic radiosurgery (cSRS) can help to control central nervous system (CNS) disease in patients who have brain metastases and have a partial response or stable brain metastases after systemic therapy. To learn if using SRS to treat all brain metastases that do not respond to systemic therapy versus treating only metastases that are getting worse can help to control CNS disease in patients whose disease gets worse after systemic therapy.
This pilot clinical trial plans to carry out dabrafenib adjuvant therapy combined with lesion curettage after fenestrated decompressive surgery for BRAF mutation-positive multicystic ameloblastoma to explore the effectiveness of this therapy in preventing tumor recurrence, reducing or even avoiding postoperative deformity and dysfunction. effect. Based on this, we plan to launch a prospective clinical study of dabrafenib in the treatment of BRAF V600E ameloblastoma, verify the feasibility of drug treatment or drug-assisted treatment of ameloblastoma, and provide patients with a safer Effective new treatment options will benefit more patients.
Taking part in medical research usually favors a particular demographic group. But there is limited research available to explain what trial attributes affect the completion of these specific demographic groups. This study will admit a wide range of data on the clinical trial experience of Merkel cell carcinoma patients to determine which factors prevail in limiting a patient's ability to join or finish a trial. It will also try to analyze data from the perspective of different demographic groups to check for recurring trends which might yield insights for the sake of future Merkel cell carcinoma patients.
Pharmacoscopy refers to an ex vivo real-time drug sensitivity profiling platform that has been shown to be of value in the treatment of leukemia (Snijder et al. 2017) (Kornauth et al. 2022) and may help to identify novel treatment opportunities for brain tumors as well (Lee et al. 2022). The rationale for pharmacoscopy-based drug sensitivity testing on real-time patient biopsies or surgery material is multiple: measuring drug response and sensitivity directly in real-time patient material, overcomes the problem of limited molecular biomarkers for established targeted therapeutic options and can identify effective drugs even for non-targeted therapies such as chemotherapy. It can...
The goal of this diagnostic randomised clinical trial is to determine, in glioblastoma patients with diagnostic uncertainty between pseudoprogression and tumor progression on follow-up MRI after chemoradiation, the added value of a direct [¹⁸F] FET-PET scan for clinical management. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does the clinical management guided by an additional FET-PET scan leads to fewer unnecessary interventions, compared with management based on MRI only? - Does the clinical management guided by an additional FET-PET scan leads to better health-related quality of life after 12 weeks, compared with management based on MRI only? - ...
The goal of this clinical investigation of a medical device is to test the safety of graphene based electrodes when used during surgery for resection of brain tumors. The main questions that it aims to answer are: - To understand the safety of these new electrodes when used during brain tumor surgery (primary objective); - To assess the quality of the brain signals recorded with the new electrodes, their ability to stimulate the brain, how stable their function is over the duration of an operation, and their suitability for use in the operating theatre (secondary objectives). Participants will undergo tumor surgery as usual with the study...
Supported by the pre-clinical data (summarized in Research Strategy), the investigators propose that Fimepinostat is an ideal candidate drug in the treatment and intervention of patients with Cushing Disease. The investigators propose a pilot, short-term (4 weeks) phase II single-center study to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of Fimepinostat in the treatment of patients with de novo, persistent, and/or recurrent CD recruited at the University of California, Los Angeles. The trial will have a 2-arm design and will simultaneously examine two different doses of Fimepinostat. The study will allow the investigators to determine the efficacy and safety of these doses in the...
