The clinical trial is intended to assess for clinical evidence of Clemastine Fumarate as a myelin repair therapy in patients with chronic inflammatory injury-causing demyelination as measured by multi-parametric MRI assessments. No reparative therapies exist for the treatment of multiple sclerosis. Clemastine fumarate was identified along with a series of other antimuscarinic medications as a potential remyelinating agent using the micropillar screen (BIMA) developed at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF). Following in vivo validation, an FDA IND exemption was granted to investigate clemastine for the treatment of multiple sclerosis in the context of chronic optic...
Uveal melanoma is the most common primary intraocular tumor in adults. The local treatment is effective, but patients still die of metastatic disease. It has been shown that early diagnosis of a few isolated metastases can result in a clean surgical excision of the metastases and an extension of the expected survival from 7-12 months to over 10 years on some patients. Many serum biomarkers are employed in Oncology. It makes sense to try the relevant ones in the diagnosis of metastatic uveal melanoma. The investigators hypothesis is that a soluble serum biomarker level changes upon development of metastatic disease either by secretion by the tumor cells themselves or by their...
Recent studies suggest that patients with metastatic melanoma whose gut microbiome is colonized by eubiotic bacteria have a stronger anti-cancer response to anti CTLA-4 and anti PD1. The hypothesis of this research is that a pooled standardized fecal microbiome transfer (FMT) will shift melanoma patients' gut microbiome towards a composition close to that associated with a better response, and will therefore increase the response to a combination of anti CTLA-4 and anti PD1, without affecting the safety of these drugs. The present trial is the first randomized trial of FMT in patients with unresectable or metastatic melanoma. It will include patients who have neither been exposed...
To explore the cognitive impairment caused by chemotherapy and endocrine therapy in premenopausal breast cancer patients and to find biomarkers with early predictive effect on this cognitive impairment by using multimodal integrated PET/MRI technology combined with psychobehavioral technology.
This is a multicenter, interventional, randomized study among adult patients recently diagnosed with a rare tumor (<12 months). The study will aim to compare compliance with the personalized post-treatment surveillance plan, established for each patient according to national guidelines, when the surveillance is conducted in person by a hospital-based physician (control arm) or remotely by a trained nurse (experimental arm).
Purpose of the study: AIM 1: Prospectively collect pre-operative [functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), magnetoencephalography (MEG)] and intra-operative mapping data in patients with intra-axial brain tumors to assess how well each modality predicts the location of eloquent brain function. In addition, each modality will be compared with the other. AIM 2: Assess reorganization of eloquent brain function and plasticity in patients with intra-axial brain tumors. This will be accomplished by prospectively collecting post-operative mapping studies and neuropsychological tests to compare them to prior mapping studies as stated above.
The goal of this study is to evaluate the prognostic capacity of DMI in a trial assessing the efficacy of adding BPM31510, a lipid nano dispersion of CoQ10 to standard treatment of Glioblastoma (GBM).
The purpose of this prospective, nonrandomized controlled phase IV study is to compare standard and advanced MRI for their ability to predict response to Optune therapy.
Melanoma is a kind of skin cancer that starts in the melanocytes. Melanocytes are cells that make the pigment that gives skin its colour. 'Resected' means the melanoma has been completely removed with surgery. Pembrolizumab is an anti-cancer therapy that works with the immune system to fight cancer cells. Some cancer cells develop a way to hide from the body's immune system and, thus, allow the cancer cells to spread and grow. Pembrolizumab helps the immune system recognize and kill these cancer cells that want to hide. Pembrolizumab is a biologic drug (produced by living organisms) available in the market under the brand name Keytruda. Keytruda is approved globally for the...
In France, since the reimbursement of Lutathera®, this treatment is allowed for retreatment if patients still fulfill the criteria of its indication and 4 news cycles could be proposed. However, clinical practices are heterogeneous regarding the number of new cycles and most teams perform only two additional cycles (every 8 weeks). Therefore, the coordinator propose to evaluate the efficacy of two additional cycle of Lutathera® versus active surveillance in patients already retreated with two cycles Lutathera® for a new progression of intestinal neuroendocrine tumor and who previously received the 4 cycles of treatment with a clinical benefit.
