Active clinical trials for "Neoplasms"

Radiological response after trans arterial chemoembolization (TACE) is classified according to Modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (mRECIST) to: complete response (CR) (disappearance of arterial enhancement), partial response (PR) ( at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of viable enhancement), progressive disease (PD) (an increase of at least 20% in the sum of the diameters of viable enhancement, or appearance of new lesions), and stable disease (any cases that do not qualify for either partial response or progressive disease

We hypothesized that TGR could serve as an early predictor of outcomes for aNSCLC patients undergoing immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). A retrospective analysis was conducted to investigate the association of TGR with response and long-term survival of aNSCLC patients undergoing ICI therapy.

The purpose of this study is to assess lymph node metastasis rate, distant metastasis rate, disease-specific mortality, and overall mortality in patients with Barrett's related T1b and high risk T1a esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) who underwent a diagnostic endoscopic resection.

To expresse TIGIT in NK Cells in Patients with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia

This is a retrospective study comparing neoadjuvent short course radiotherapy to conventional chemoradiation in locally advanced cancer rectum and the effect of both regimens in overall survival and disease free survival

The investigators retrospective collect the clinical data of patients diagnosed with lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma, including primary site, gender, age, smoking history, tumor stage, time of initial treatment, EBV-DNA copy number, first-line treatment and survival status.

Robotic pancreatoduodenectomy is the most complex surgery for a general surgeon and consequently a pancreatic surgeon can aspire to. Due to the close proximity of the pancreas to the large vessels, great skill and experience in the field of pancreatic surgery, robotic surgery and also vascular surgery is essential. The ability to predict the depth of robotic pancreatoduodenectomy in each individual patient would be extremely important, for patient selection and for the implementation of the learning curve. This study aims to provide a difficulty score (DS) for robotic pancreatoduodenectomy to be used to select cases based on the experience and expertise of the surgeon.

We will focus on the prognostic value of CD318 in acute myeloid leukemia patients at Assiut University Hospital

Prostate carcinoma (PC) is common malignancy and is considered to be the highest incidence in the old males. The traditional diagnostic methods of PC present with some shortcomings. For example, the specificity of serum PSA remains low while prostate needle biopsy is invasive and false negative in some case, even causing missed diagnosis of some high risk PC, and over diagnosis of PC is not rare. Therefore, a noninvasive diagnostic method with high accuracy is urgently needed. Our previous study has proved that PROstate cancer Urine Detector (PROUD), which is able to detect chromosomal aberrations of the urine exfoliated cells, is a reliable method in diagnosing urothelial carcinoma with sensitivity and specificity of 82.5% and 96.9%, respectively. But its potential in PC diagnosis hasn't been assessed yet and the accuracy of PROUD in detecting PC need to be validated. We here intended to investigate whether PROUD can be used in PC diagnosis and further validate the accuracy of PROUD in diagnosing PC.

Clinical Decision Support Systems (CDSSs) to augment clinical care and decision making. These are platforms which aim to improve healthcare delivery by enhancing medical decisions with targeted clinical knowledge, patient information, and other health information. In view of the benefit of developing a CDSS, we sought to develop an alternative CDSS for oncologic therapy selection through a partnership with Ping An Technology (Shenzhen, China), beginning with gastric and oesophagal cancer. This would be done in a piecemeal fashion, with the prototype platform utilizing only international guidelines and high-quality published evidence from journals to arrive at case-specific treatment recommendations. This platform would then be evaluated by comparing its recommendations with that from the multidisciplinary tumour boards of several tertiary care institutions to determine the concordance rate.
