This phase II trial studies how well dynamic susceptibility contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DSC-MRI) works in measuring relative cerebral blood volume (rCBV) for early response to bevacizumab in patients with glioblastoma that has come back. DSC-MRI may help evaluate changes in the blood vessels within the cancer to determine a patient?s response to treatment.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effects on patients with metastatic melanoma of taking a government approved and paid-for PD-1 inhibitor intermittently, with taking the same type of agent continuously. Researchers want to see if the two ways of giving this type of treatment work equally well in extending the life of patients with melanoma, or not.
A prospective multicenter, single-arm phase II study enrolling treatment-naïve patients with metastatic pulmonary large-cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC)
This study is for patients with neuroendocrine tumours (NET) with or without carcinoid syndrome followed by NET Unit of European Institute of Oncology. The objective of the trial is to evaluate biochemical markers of myocardial injury (high-sensitive troponins), haemodyinamic markers (pro-brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), N-terminal (NT)-BNP (NT-proBNP)), and markers of fibrosis (Suppression of Tumorigenicity 2 (ST2) in patients with neuroendocrine tumours (NET) with or without carcinoid syndrome.
This is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, controlled clinical study of NSCLC patients with intracranial oligo-metastatic EGFR-sensitive mutations treated with EGFR-TKI Almonertinib , according to the implementation time of brain radiotherapy. Patients were randomly divided into two groups, experimental group (early intervention group of brain radiotherapy) : the brain radiotherapy started within 1 month of TKI treatment, the brain radiotherapy here specifically refers to stereotactic radiotherapy; Control group (brain radiotherapy late intervention group) : Brain radiotherapy was given within 3 months after brain progression during TKI treatment. The differences in...
The vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) induces a compensatory movement in the eye when the head is rotated, to maintain stable vision when we move. It originates in the peripheral vestibular system, which detects head movements. It is particularly effective for rapid head movements, as tested in the Head Impulse Test (HIT). In acute unilateral vestibular deficit (AUVD), the VOR deficit is compensated for by a substitution saccade, more commonly known as catch up saccade, that contribute to refocus the gaze and maintain vision during head rotations. Recent technological advances have made it possible to make high-quality recordings during HIT (video Head Impulse Test, vHIT), leading...
This is a multicenter, two-arm, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of Optune® (Tumor Treating Fields at 200 kHz) together with maintenance Temozolomide (TMZ) chemotherapy agent and pembrolizumab compared to Optune® together with maintenance TMZ and placebo in newly diagnosed Glioblastoma (GBM) patients. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the Overall Survival (OS).
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the clinical and nutritional effectiveness of ketogenic diet (KD) in pediatric patients with genetic, neurological or metabolic conditions requiring KD. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - does KD support adequate growth? - does KD improve clinical symptoms? - how does KD impact quality of life? Participants will be followed up as per clinical practice
This is a prospective, open label, single-arm, multicenter, non-interventional study of dabrafenib in combination with trametinib as adjuvant treatment for Chinese patients with stage III BRAF V600 mutation positive melanoma after complete resection.
The study is a prospective randomized controlled procedure to investigate the effect of ultrasound in articulation training and also the effect of treatment intensity in this mode of therapy. Targeted subjects are children with brain tumor or cleft palate with articulation errors which visualization of lingual movement using ultrasound may facilitate their acquisition of the sounds misarticulated. Subjects would be randomized to two groups of high and low treatment intensity, with stratification to the groups by disorders, age and gender whenever possible. Participants will be randomly assigned to either the treatment group or a waitlist control group in a 1:1 ratio.
