Active clinical trials for "Neoplasms"

The purpose of this study is to perform molecular diagnostic in mediastinal lymph nodes of non-small cell lung cancer patients sampled by endobronchial ultrasound guided finde needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA).

The purpose of this study is to determine whether a specific subtype of lymphoma responds optimally to treatment with rituximab and chemotherapy.

The purpose of this protocol is to develop a detailed MRI technique and haemodynamic maps enabling early detection of colorectal metastases in the liver.

Study comparing level of free radicals in tumor tissue, blood serum and saliva in patients with Squamous Cell Carcinoma of tongue and mouth floor. Patients with benign fibroma of oral cavity and normal gingiva around extracted lower wisdom tooth are used for control

The goal of this clinical research study is to collect information and blood samples to try to learn why some people develop cancers and tumors, why some families have more cancers than others, and whether certain genes or regions of DNA (the genetic material of cells) affect a person's risk of getting cancer. This is an investigational study. Up to 1500 patients and family members will take part in this study. All will be enrolled at MD Anderson.

Evaluate the ability to image oral mucosa in healthy volunteer by nonlinear microscopy

Prospective Data Collection of Newly Diagnosed Hodgkin's Disease and Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma Cases

Try to find lung cancer stem cells from primary culture of routine surgical resection of lung cancer tissue including cancer cells and stroma cells, then characterization the established cell lines, and compare the difference of stroma cells between tumor part and surrounding part.

The proposal seeks to establish: A comprehensive compilation (database) of clinical information comprising clinical, histopathological, treatment and follow-up characteristics of past and future gastrointestinal cancer (GIC) cases in Singapore that can be shared by investigators. The characteristics will include clinical (eg age, sex, stage), histopathological (eg. grade, type), treatment (eg. treatment status, regimens) and outcome data (eg. survival, toxicity) from medical records. A collection (bank) of corresponding frozen and fixed tissue, blood and processed samples (enriched blood mononuclear cells, protein, RNA, DNA, tissue arrays) in Singapore that can be shared by the investigators. A gastrointestinal cancer co-operative group (GCCG) of clinicians and scientists researching prognostic and predictive markers in GIC, which will benefit from the multi-disciplinary knowledge, information and samples of its members. To characterise genetic polymorphisms related to Gastrointestinal cancer chemotherapy treatment in controls (healthy volunteers)

This study aimed to compare the activity of Thymidine Kinase 1 in serum of two groups of woman at high and normal risk for breast/ovary cancer.
