This study is conducted in the United States of America (USA). The aim of the study is to monitor the number of annual new adult cases of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) and to establish a registry for these new cases in order to identify any possible increase related to the introduction of liraglutide, exenatide once-weekly, and other GLP-1 receptor agonists into the US market.
Multiple sensory cues are typically generated by discrete events, and while they do not reach the cerebrum simultaneously, the brain can bind them temporally if they are interpreted as corresponding to a single event. The temporal binding of vestibular and non-vestibular sensory cues is poorly understood and has not been studied in detail, despite the fact that the vestibular system operates in an inherently multimodal environment. In this study, the researchers are investigating the physiology and pathophysiology of vestibular temporal binding by studying normal subjects, patients with peripheral and central vestibular dysfunction, and patients with vestibular and...
The goal of this clinical trial is provide new treatment for patients with advanced melanoma who have failed previous immunotherapy. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Efficacy of PD1 monoclonal antibody combined with recombinant human adenovirus type 5 injection in patients with advanced malignant melanoma. - Safety of PD1 monoclonal antibody combined with recombinant human adenovirus type 5 injection in patients with advanced malignant melanoma.
The purpose of this research study is to test new ways to improve the usefulness of the world's first total-body positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) scanner (EXPLORER) by collecting data from PET scans using one of three different imaging agents: 18F-PSMA; 18F-FES; or, 68Ga DOTATATE. These imaging agents are approved by the FDA to be used for patients diagnosed with prostate cancer (18F-PSMA), neuroendocrine tumor (68Ga DOTATATE), or breast cancer (18F-FES).
The purpose of this study is to investigate the pathologic features, complications, and prognostic factors of functioning adrenal adenoma and suggest follow-up algorithms for adrenal incidentaloma.
This study is being done to determine if CEST magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and FDG PET are feasible techniques to detect metabolic differences between tumor and brain in patients with a brain tumor.
This study will provide continuing availability to tazemetostat for people that have previously completed participation in a tazemetostat study, either with monotherapy (single drug treatment) or combination therapy. The aim of the study will be to assess the long-term safety of tezemetostat.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of Brivaracetam (BRV) in focal epilepsy subjects with partial seizures and to evaluate the maintenance of efficacy of BRV over time.
This reader study aims at assessing whether the radiologist aided with AI software has at least a non-inferior performance than without AI assistance in detecting brain metastases. 200 retrospective MRI images will be included in the study with 100 positive and 100 negative exams. Assessment will be completed by 12 readers with varying level of experience. This is a Retrospective Multiple-Reader Multiple-Case (MRMC) randomised study.
Postoperative cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage is a well-known complication that might occur after transnasal transsphenoidal adenomectomy at an incidence of 0.5-15% according to different literature reports. Persistent CSF leakage may lead to intracranial hypotension or meningitis, therefore aggressive management is mandatory. The treatment is immediate repair during transsphenoidal surgery once intraoperative CSF leakage is identified, with the adjunct of postoperative bed rest and/or lumbar drainage. However, due to the advances in endoscopic endonasal skull base surgery, some surgical teams have advocated that postoperative bed rest may not be necessary if appropriate repair...
