MesotheliomaMalignantProspective exploratory study specifically investigating the role of 11C-Methionine PET/CT imaging in patients affected by Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma (MPM) and candidate to pleurodesis.

Role of FDG PET, Immune and Hypoxic Marker in NSCLC
CarcinomaNon-Small-Cell LungThis is a retrospective study that involves the revision of clinical, instrumental and pathologic data of an estimated cohort of maximum 130 patients with NSCLC treated with surgery with radical intent at our center.

Fungemia in Hematologic Malignancies
Acute LeukemiaChronic Leukemia2 moreThe purpose of this study is to determine the risk factors for fungemia in a population of patients diagnosed with hematologic malignancies and eligible for chemotherapy.

Healthcare Costs Among Patients With CML Receiving Dasatinib or Nilotinib in a Commercial and Medicare...
Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML)The purpose of this study is to examine the healthcare costs among patients with CML receiving dasatinib or nilotinib as first line therapy in a commercially or Medicare insured population.

Multispectral Imaging to Characterize Patterns of Vascular Supply Within Lymphoepithelial Mucosa...
Oropharyngeal CarcinomaOropharynx CancerThe purpose of this study is to characterize the blood supply at the base of the tongue and within the tonsil region. We hypothesize that high-resolution Narrow Band Imaging (NBI) will improve the diagnosis of oropharyngeal carcinoma (OPC). The goal is to provide the better assessment of tumor and thus providing better preoperative expectations to patients with OPC or tumor extent prior to radiation therapy.

Functional Outcomes and HRQoL in Upper-extremity Sarcoma Patients After Limb Salvage
Cancer of MuscleThis study aims to assess the functional ability and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of upper extremity sarcoma patients who have undergone limb salvage surgery.

Relationship Between Endoscopic Ultrasound Staging and Degree of Stricture in Esophageal Cancer...
Esophageal CancerThe primary objective of this study is to document all cases of EUS in patients with esophageal cancer and determine if the inability to advance the gastroscope beyond the tumor correlates with locally advanced disease stage at Endoscopic Ultrasound.

Characterizing the Pancreatic Cancer Proteome From Pancreatic Juice
Pancreatic CancerCurrently, X-rays and blood tests often miss pancreatic cancer. In this study, we are collecting and studying the fluid produced by the pancreas as a way to detect pancreatic cancer at an earlier stage.

A Study of Patient-reported Outcomes in Patients With Lung or Esophageal Cancer
Lung CancerEsophageal CancerThis survey study is looking to determine if patient reported outcomes(using the PROMIS survey) will vary according to the presence of recurrent or metastatic lung or esophageal cancer.

SPECTAlung: Screening Patients With Thoracic Tumors for Efficient Clinical Trial Access
Any Stage of Lung Cancer (Any Histotype)Any Stage of Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma1 moreSPECTAlung is a program aiming at screening patients with thoracic tumors to identify the molecular characteristics of their disease. The thoracic tumors include lung cancer, malignant pleural mesothelioma, thymoma or thymic carcinoma at any stage. Once the molecular characteristics are identified, there might be the possibility to offer these patients access to targeted clinical trials.
