This study is a postmarketing requirement jointly carried out by four NDA holders (Bayer AG, Bracco, GE Healthcare and Guerbet) and the CRO IQVIA. The study aims to create detailed images of the organs and tissue of the human body during x-ray, CT-scan or MRI investigations, doctors are using contrast media (a kind of dye) which can be given to patients by injection into a blood vessel or by mouth. In this study researchers want to find out whether so called gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs) have an effect on body movement and mental skills when given to participants multiple times within 5 years. The study plans to enroll about 2076 participants suffering from a...
ABSTRACT Breast cancer is the most common malignant tumor in women, with more than a million new cases annually. One of the most frequent surgical and post-actinic sequelae and well known is postmastectomy lymphedema. The axillary web syndrome is another sequel that limits the functionality of the patient and delays the protocol times of application of treatments cancer, and in many cases this sequela is misdiagnosed. This surgical sequelusually disappears spontaneously after the third month of appearance, but this implies a long period of discomfort and limitations for the user, at the same time that it may delay the application of Radiotherapy within the indicated protocol...
This study will examine the impact of anti-programmed cell death 1 (PD1) therapy given in the approved adjuvant therapeutic regimens upon the morphologic, histopathologic, molecular and immunologic as well as genomic features of atypical/dysplastic nevi (A/DN) in patients with a prior documented melanoma of Stages IIB, IIC, IIIA, IIIB, or IIIC and concurrent presence of two or more atypical nevi.
Study is enrolling newly diagnosed breast cancer patients about to start chemotherapy and age-matched control participants. The investigator is trying to better understand the prevalence of cognitive difficulties in cancer patients receiving chemotherapy compared to the general population as well as what biological mechanisms may play a role in the development of these difficulties. Patients will be asked to complete six assessments over the course of approximately 5 months. Assessments 1,3, 4.5 and 5 include computerized and paper and pencil cognitive testing as well as blood draws. Assessments 2 and 4 only involve the collection of a blood sample. An optional sub study is...
The purpose of this study is to examine changes in perceived daily performance and executive functioning following chemotherapy in individuals with non-central nervous system cancers.
Intraoperative flash visual evoked potentials (FVEPs) could monitor visual function during neurosurgery. There are fewer reports comparing the effects of sevoflurane-propofol balanced anesthesia and propofol-based total intravenous anesthesia under comparable bispectral index (BIS) levels on the amplitude and latency of flash visual evoked potentials (FVEPs) for sellar or parasellar tumors resection neurosurgeries.
Acromegaly, a chronic condition characterized by growth hormone (GH) and, in turn, insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-I) excess, is burdened by a series of systemic and metabolic comorbidities that strongly impair quality of life (QoL) and life expectancy. Amongst them, a specific acromegalic osteopathy has been discovered, characterized by fragility fractures associated with high bone turnover, which need to be early detected, according to most recent guidelines, since they are very frequent and related to chronic pain and reduced QoL. Morphometric vertebral fractures (VFs) are an emerging landmark of skeletal fragility in general population as well as in clinical trials, and are...
This is a phase 2 single-arm, open-label clinical trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tarlatamab in patients with relapsed extrapulmonary neuroendocrine carcinoma (EPNEC) who have previously received platinum-based first-line chemotherapy. Participants will receive tarlatamab on Cycle 1 Day 1 (C1D1), Day 8 (C1D8), and Day 15 (C1D15), followed by administration every two weeks thereafter. No placebo control is included in this study.
This study will evaluate efficacy and safety of anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies combined with bevacizumab and metronomic cyclophosphamide in patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and cutaneous melanoma previously treated with immune checkpoint blockade (ICB). The hypotheses of this study are that a combination of ICB, cyclophosphamide, and bevacizumab prolongs progression-free survival and overall survival, and also increases rates of objective responses and disease control.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the induction chemotherapy efficacy in olfactory neuroblastoma. The main question it aims to answer is: wether olfactory neuroblastoma patients with different pathology subtypes apply to different induction chemotherapy schemes. Participants will be treated with different chemotherapy schemes, to evaluate the tumor remission rate and long term survival.
