The objective of the study is to assess safety of panitumumab-IRDye800 in pediatric patients undergoing brain surgery to remove suspected tumors.
The goal of this prospective observational study is to learn about patient quality of life and experience and medical information needs during uveal melanoma post-treatment surveillance. Participants have previously undergone treatment for non-metastatic uveal melanoma and have integrated a oncological and / or ophthalmic surveillance protocol based on their individual genomic and / or clinical risk of recurrence. The main objectives it aims to assess are: - To evaluate the effect of satisfaction with communication with the oncologist/ophthalmologist during the oncology/ophthalmology surveillance visit 6 months after the start of surveillance (T1) on the overall...
The study will enroll patients suffering from glioblastoma, a malignant brain tumor. Intervention is intended as a laboratory intervention and not as a clinical intervention. In fact, tumor removed from patients' brains will be sent to a dedicated laboratory to obtain an "avatar" of the tumor, named patient-derived organoid (PDO). A number of experimental antitumor approaches will be studied on PDOs. Results of these experiments will be correlated to the prognosis of patients.
The Johns Hopkins Pediatric Radiation Oncology Program is creating a registry that will capture the full 3D radiation dosimetry delivered to its pediatric patients to manage the quality of care provided, as well as to examine the long-term outcomes and toxicity of each patient. The registry will capture baseline clinical data, disease, toxicity, and quality of life outcomes. The goal is to include all pediatric patients undergoing proton therapy and photon therapy to enable future comparisons of treatment outcomes.
To explore PFS, ORR (CR/CRu+PR), OS and side effects of piamprizumab combined with RMA in newly diagnosed PCNSL, so as to clarify the value of piamprizumab combined with RMA in the first-line treatment of PCNSL patients, and to clarify the clinical and biological factors affecting the efficacy
This is a multisite, phase I/II clinical trial in children and young adults with newly-diagnosed high-grade glioma (HGG), diffuse midline glioma (DMG) and recurrent HGG/DMG, Medulloblastoma (MB), or ependymoma (EPN) to determine the safety, immunogenicity, and efficacy of a CMV-directed peptide vaccine plus checkpoint blockade.
The purpose of this study is to assess wether the SONDA visual field test is suitable for patients with a supra sellar tumour.
Supratentorial craniotomy is one of the most common neurosurgical procedures, with severe perioperative pain. Inadequate perioperative pain relief has been associated with increased blood pressure and intracranial pressure, favoring bleeding and cerebral cerebral hypoperfusion. The ideal analgesia for neurosurgery requires complete pain relief, eliminates the side effects of opioid drugs and no influence for neurological function. Previous studies have proposed a multimodal analgesic strategy, combining analgesics and local anaesthesia, it is expected to achieve the above benefits.
To characterize feasibility, safety, and/or preliminary efficacy of personalized strategies to adapt standard radiotherapy treatments to individual patient responses.
This is a study using a parallel control approach and is expected to recruit 35 volunteers, including 8 prostate cancer patients, 8 neuroendocrine tumour patients, 8 glioma patients, 8 Parkinson's syndrome patients, and 3 normal volunteers, to undergo dual-nuclide PET/CT imaging and to validate the isolation effect and quantitative accuracy of simultaneous dual-nuclide imaging in humans.
