Previous studies have demonstrated that patients frequently undergo significant decision conflict regarding major medical decisions in otolaryngology. There lack validated tools available for decision support for patients. While limited evidence has demonstrated that clinical decision support tools can alleviate decision conflict for patients with diagnosis in otolaryngology, conversational language models were not employed in these studies and may provide additional benefit in this context. This study seeks to evaluate the efficacy of using ChatGPT, a conversational language model with basic clinical knowledge, in alleviating decision conflict for patients with new diagnosis...
The purpose of this research is to test the safety and effectiveness of the investigational drug ruxolitinib when it is combined with standard of care treatment (radiation therapy and temozolomide) for the treatment of newly diagnosed glioblastoma. Half the people in the study will be assigned to take the study drug ruxolitinib in addition to the standard of care temozolomide and radiation therapy and the other half will be assigned to the standard of care temozolomide and radiation therapy only. This assignment will be randomized in a 1-to-1 ratio, like the flip of a coin.
Leptomeningeal metastases is a specific pattern of central involvement in which tumor cells invade and proliferate in the subarachnoid space, and is a lethal complication of malignant tumors. Leptomeningeal metastases from Her2-negative breast cancer is still tricky to treat at present, with an overall median survival of only 3-6 months, even after aggressive treatment. This study is an open, uncontrolled phase I/II clinical study to observe the safety, feasibility, and potential efficacy of Sacituzumab Govitecan combined with pemetrexed intrathecal chemotherapy in the treatment of patients with Her2-negative breast cancer leptomeningeal metastases in search of a more...
The incidence of brain metastasis of Her2-negative breast cancer is high, which seriously affects the prognosis of patients.The treatment of brain metastasis of Her2-negative breast cancer is still tricky. The local efficacy of head radiotherapy for breast cancer brain metastases is remarkable, and systemic tumor progression in patients with brain metastases is the main reason for treatment failure. Sacituzumab Govitecan is the only Trop-2 antibody-coupled drug (ADC) approved for the treatment of unresectable locally advanced or metastatic Her2-negative breast cancer. However, the objective remission rate of Sacituzumab Govitecan for intracranial metastatic lesions has not been...
Radiotherapy (RT) is one of the most important local treatments besides surgery, but currently, no consensus has been made regarding the optimal radiation volume for high grade gliomas. The most main growth characteristics of glioblastoma is infiltrative growth through the white matter tracts, regions along the white matter tracts especially at the direction of the main fiber bundles would have a higher risk of microscopic tumor cell dissemination. However, in current practice, recommends for the CTV definition is adding a 2 cm symmetrical margin to GTV or peritumoral edema in all directions, which hardly account for the growth characteristics of gliomas that are known...
This will be a prospective, open-label, single-arm pilot study to investigate the safety and efficacy of Bevacizumab (BEV) in combination with microbubble (MB)-mediated FUS in patients with recurrent GBM. BEV represents the physician's best choice for the standard of care (SoC) in rGBM after previous treatment with surgery (if appropriate), standard radiotherapy with temozolomide chemotherapy, and with adjuvant temozolomide.
The primary study objectives are 1. to evaluate the safety and tolerability profiles of DCB-BO1301 and to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of DCB-BO1301 as add-on therapy to dacarbazine in subjects with advanced melanoma (Phase I) 2. to evaluate the efficacy profile of DCB-BO1301 at MTD or lower dose level as add-on therapy to dacarbazine in subjects with advanced melanoma in terms of progression free survival (Phase IIa)
This is a phase 1 open label study to establish the safety, tolerability, maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D), and preliminary efficacy of a single dose of JCXH-211. The study agent JCXH-211, is a self-replicating RNA (srRNA)-based human IL-12, administered intratumorally via convection-enhanced delivery (CED) to patients with recurrent or progressive high-grade glioma. Primary objective is to determine MTD or RP2D for a single dose on the study drug. Secondary outcomes include overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) as assessed by modified mRANO 2.0.
The aim of the study is to generate patient-derived organoids (PDOs) from brain resection or biopsied extra-cranial metastases. The preliminary data collected will be used to assess the ability of PDOs to predict patients' treatment response and their radio-sensitivity and chemo-sensitivity can be correlated with their survival outcome.
This early phase I trial tests the safety, side effects and how well medication combinations of dasatinib, quercetin, fisetin and temozolomide work in treating patients with glioma for which the patient has received treatment in the past (previously treated) and for tumor cells that remain after attempts to treat the tumor have been made (residual disease). Dasatinib is in a class of medications called tyrosine kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of an abnormal protein that signals tumor cells to multiply, which may help keep tumor cells from growing. Quercetin and fisetin are compounds found in plants. They have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties and help...
