The purpose of collecting this data is to continue to learn more about the EchoTip AcuCore and the device's ability to produce the desired favorable effect and if there are any undesired outcomes that may be related to the EchoTip AcuCore.
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.
To determine the safety and efficacy of using the drug azeliragon combined with stereotactic radiosurgery. Specifically, to determine if this combination will lead to improved response in the brain (tumor shrinking in size) and overall tumor control (how long tumor remains controlled).
To investigate the effect of Bevacizumab on asymptomatic radiotherapy-induced brain injury patients with head and neck cancer.
Gliomas are the most common type of primary brain tumors, with surgery followed by radiotherapy and chemotherapy as the main treatment modalities. However, they are highly prone to recurrence, presenting significant treatment challenges, especially for high-grade gliomas, which have a 5-year survival rate of only 5.5%. Paclitaxel, a common chemotherapeutic agent, exhibits antitumor effects in vitro that are 1400 times stronger than those of temozolomide (the first-line chemotherapy drug for gliomas). However, due to its large molecular weight (approximately 893 Da), it cannot cross the blood-brain barrier, precluding its use as a first-line treatment for gliomas. Preliminary...
The efficacy of treatment with metformin for promoting cognitive recovery and brain growth in children/adolescents treated for medulloblastoma will be investigated in a multi-site Phase III randomized double-blind placebo-controlled parallel arm superiority trial. Specifically, in children/adolescents aged 7 years to 17 years and 11 months who have completed treatment for medulloblastoma, is oral administration of metformin for 16 weeks associated with greater improvement of cognitive function and brain growth compared to placebo administered for 16 weeks?
Patients with Supratentorial tumor undergoing craniotomy have a higher risk of postoperative pain, which will affect their postoperative quality of recovery (QoR). Although scalp nerve block (SNB) can alleviate postoperative pain, the effect on postoperative QoR in patients with supratentorial tumor undergoing craniotomy is still unclear. This study is aimed to explore the effect of SNB on postoperative QoR in this population. To explore the effect, we design a randomized controlled trial in which 84 patients with supratentorial tumor will be randomly assigned to either the SNB group or control group. The primary outcome is 15-item QoR score at 24 h after surgery. The secondary...
