This study aims to evaluate the effect of Greater Occipital Nerve and Stellate Ganglion block treatments on sleep in patients with chronic headaches. Patients will be assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Insomnia Severity Index, and Visual Analog Scale at the time of treatment and at 4 and 8 weeks post-procedure. The study will compare the sleep improvement effects of both treatments to help guide clinicians in selecting the most effective interventional method. Demographic and clinical data will also be collected and analyzed for statistical comparison.
The goal of this study is to investigate the incidence and risk factors of central nervous system adverse events of Lorlatinib in patients with ALK-positive advanced non-small cell lung cancer.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the diagnostic value of preoperative MRI examination for adult-type diffuse gliomas. The main question it aims to answer is: - Can preoperative MRI examination noninvasively predict genotype of gliomas? - Can preoperative MRI examination noninvasively predict the overall survival of gliomas? - Can preoperative MRI examination noninvasively predict Ki-67 proliferation status?
This study was designed as a prospective observational study.
The aim of the study is to examine the safety and feasibility of using 5-ALA in children who have MRI scans showing an aggressive looking brain tumour. It will also study if 5-ALA can help the surgeon achieve maximal tumour removal and discriminate between normal brain tissue and tumour. Patients will be between 3-18 years (inclusive) and all patients will receive 5-ALA 3-6 hours prior to resection surgery.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of Tislelizumab (one anti-PD-1 antibody same as nivolumab approved in China) in combination with bevacizumab in patients with recurrent or progressive glioblastoma (GBM) who have progressed on bevacizumab with or without PTEN or TERT gene mutations.
This is a prospective, randomized, 2-arm, Phrase 2, superiority and multicenter study to compare the efficiency of Anti-HER2 TKI versus Pertuzumab in Combination With Dose-dense Trastuzumab and Taxane in HER2-positive breast cancer patients with active refractory brain metastases.
The primary objective of this Phase 1 clinical trial is to evaluate the feasibility and tolerability of a novel generation of gene-modified tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) in a cohort of 10 patients aged 18-75 diagnosed with unresectable or metastatic melanoma. TILs will undergo transduction with the Interleukin-7 (IL-7) gene, for IL-7 production upon antigen engagement. Participants will undergo: - screening - tumor operation following autologous TIL production (incl. transduction) - takes approximately 4-6 weeks - admission for lymphodepleting chemotherapy (Cyclophosphamide and Fludarabine phosphate), TIL infusion and high-dose IL-2 infusions...
Brain tumors involve different age groups with a wide range of tumor types involving different anatomical compartments of the brain. The evolution of the brain in vertebrates, including the most recent homo species (including humans), has occurred through increasing structural complexity in more evolved species. In the retrospective study, we will investigate the location of the tumors and different structural aspects of skull anatomy in patients with brain tumors. The information will be compared with the anatomical evolution of the brain and skull in vertebrates to look for possible associations, which can provide insights into evolutionary biology.
A nationwide, prospective, multicenter randomized controlled clinical trial to evaluate the therapeutic effects of the fiber tract-based artificial intelligence (AI) Robot Guiding System on the perioperative and long-term recovery of patients with small-volume basal ganglion hemorrhage.
