Active clinical trials for "Neoplasms"

The interactions of chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells with the microenvironment in secondary lymphoid tissues and the bone marrow are known to promote CLL cell survival and proliferation

The goal of delivering the right drug to the right cancer patient (precision medicine) requires a detailed understanding of how genomic alterations are linked to drug response. The purpose of this study is to intercept at point-of-care a large cohort of newly diagnosed mCRC patients to determine if it is possible to obtain personalized genetic information from each subject's tumor (tissue and blood) to triage treatment choices. In case of target positivity, patients will be conveyed, whenever possible, to self-standing, independent, hypothesis-driven POC trials as soon as they exhibit resistance to standard of care treatment.

The study is an italian multicentric and will be conducted in 20 centers. The aim of this study is to evaluate poor mobilizer (PM) rate in newly diagnosed MM patients who are mobilized with cyclophosphamide and G-CSF and plerixafor on demand. Plerixafor is a specific reversible inhibitor of the chemokine receptor CXCR4 and prevents the binding of its ligand stromal cell derived factor SDF-1α also known as CXCL12, thereby releasing hematopoietic stem cells into the circulation.

This is a prospective, non-randomized phase III study observing the cognitive function changes with conformal hippocampus avoidance during intensity modulated radiotherapy for T4 nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients.

An observational study to explore prognoses and clinical treatments of the patients with non-small cell lung cancer complicated with oligometastases

Recruitment of participants to the study takes place at the urological department at Zealand University Hospital, Roskilde, Feb. 2018-April 2018. 10 people with diagnosis of renal cancer should be recruited in phases 1. Subsequently, biological materials from 100 patients with kidney cancer will be used from the national Biobank. In phase 3, 10 patients will be recruited for the final gene test.

The real-world observational study was designed to explore lymph metastases and prognoses of the Chinese patients with thoracic T1-T3 esophageal cancer

This experiment has now collected 50 cases, all through CT chest scans and blood exosome detection. Twenty-two patients underwent surgical treatment and 14 tissue specimens were examined for cancer and paracancerous tissue exosomesWe found that exosomal micor-A was highly expressed in early stage lung cancer tissues and was significantly higher than paracancerous tissues. The micor-A in the adjacent tissues was significantly higher than that in peripheral blood exosomes

Patients undergoing cochlear implantation after radio surgery for vestibular schwannoma will be included in the study. Patients will undergo preoperative and intraoperative eABR measurement. Correlations to postoperative hearing results will be drawn.

pathologically proved ovarian cancer patients that underwent contrast enhanced abdomino-pelvic CT and diagnostic laparoscopy before cytoreductive surgery (CRS) will be included in the study. Calculation of PCI (peritoneal cancer index) using Sugarbaker's method, peritoneal carcinomatosis extent will be categorized into low, moderate and large. Agreement in general and in each category between CT, laparoscopy, surgery and pathology will be assessed using kappa agreement.
