Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation and Antisocial Behavior

Aggression

The main objective of this study is to investigate the causal relationship between prefrontal cortex activity and antisocial behavior, as well as risk factors for antisocial behavior. Specifically, this study tests the hypothesis that upregulating activity in the prefrontal cortex through a non-invasive form of brain stimulation, transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) will reduce antisocial and aggressive behavior. The effects of 3 days of anodal stimulation over the prefrontal cortex are assessed.

Early Assessment of Ovarian Cancer Aggressiveness by Metabolic Imaging

Ovarian Cancer

To learn if an MRSI can be performed on a 3T scanner using an investigational contrast drug called hyperpolarized 13-C pyruvate. 3T refers to the "strength" of the MRI machine.

Contrast Enhanced Harmonic Endoscopic Ultrasound (CH-EUS), Elastography, and Fractal Analysis in...

Pancreatic Mass

Contrast enhanced harmonic Endoscopic Ultrasound (CH-EUS) can be used during a conventional EUS examination to correctly identify and target lesions with the help of Ultrasound Contrast Agents. When CH-EUS is applied to the dynamic ultrasound images of conventional EUS, additional information about tumour vascularity can be obtained solely from the visual uptake of contrast agent into the tumour. Angiogenesis within malignant tumour tissue is varied from that of its normal surrounding tissue.Blood flow within malignant tissue is characteristically low volume. Contrast agents are slow to pass through tumour microvasculature and hence this is seen as an area of hypo-enhancement. This hypo-enhancement or hypo-vascularity is well demonstrated in PDAC and the opposite is known to be true for PNET, both of these findings showing to be consistent with cytopathological results.Tumour hemodynamics and vascular patterns resultant from contrast uptake can be analysed further with the help of fractal use. Attaining this information can allow more accurate characterization of both PDAC and PNET thus in turn predicting their respective behaviours i.e., aggressiveness (local or systemic spread) and histological grade. (6) Contrast-enhanced computer tomography (CT) is currently used to evaluate the response of chemotherapy in patients with PDAC according to the RECIST guidelines. However, one significant advantage of CH-EUS over dynamic CT imaging is that ultrasound contrast agents do not leak into the interstitial space allowing for better quantitative measurement of tissue perfusion.More recently, the EFSUMB guidelines have recommended dynamic CH-EUS as a preferred technique to monitor anti-angiogenic treatment.This founds the basis for evaluating CH-EUS's role. *(with the help of fractal analysis)-remove this if needed* in predicting PDAC's response to neo-adjuvant chemotherapy as this is yet to be evaluated. Yamashita et al. demonstrated that patients with PDAC with positive vessel sign showed a significantly longer progression free survival compared with patients with negative vessel sign after chemotherapy (P = 0.037; log-rank test). EUS elastography (EUS-E) is a US technique that measures the hardness of tissues. The level of hardness of SPLs can be evaluated using qualitative scores and/or quantitative methods (strain ratio [SR]).

This study characterizes cardiac events following standard of care chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapy in patients with aggressive B-Cell Lymphoma that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). The results from this study may allow a description of these events, their managements and outcome.

Pimavanserin and Aggression and Social Cognition.

Intermittent Explosive Disorder

The investigators are studying how certain drugs can reduce anger outbursts in people with anger problems. In this study the investigators seek to determine if a single 34 mg (two 17 mg tablets) oral dose of the 5-HT2a receptor blocker, pimavanserin, will reduce aggressive responding in individuals with impulsive aggression (Intermittent Explosive Disorder: IED) on a laboratory task that assesses aggression (Taylor Aggression Paradigm: TAP). We will also be examining how this drug impacts hostile social cognition e.g., hostile attribution). If pimvanserin reduces aggression in this study a next step would be a placebo-controlled treatment trial of pimavanserin in study participants with IED. Participation will first involve a remote (e.g., TEAMS) screening session. If potential study participants appear eligible they will come into the lab for an in-person session where participants will complete interviews and questionnaires and have a medical evaluation (including a physical exam, electrocardiogram, and screens for alcohol and drug use). During the next study session, participants will complete a diagnostic interview and a series of questionnaires, all of which can all take place on-line. During the next two sessions (which will be in-person) participants will undergo two (2) study sessions during which study participants will be given a study drug (orally). The drug given, pimavanserin, is currently available and is known to block serotonin receptors thought to be involved in regulating anger. After participants take the study drug, study participants will complete questionnaires and computer tasks for assessment of aggression and of hostile social cognition. Each of these two in-person study sessions will take at least eight (8) hours. A final on-line session will be done to make certain the investigators have all the data required by the study protocol.

A Study on Fractionated Rituximab to Avoid Lysis Syndrome in Aggressive B-Lymphoma

Aggressive B-Cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma

Tumour lysis syndrome (TLS) occurs as a consequence of the rapid destruction of malignant cells, spontaneously and/or in response to cytotoxic agents and immunotherapies. TLS is a feature of highly proliferative diseases with heavy tumor burden, such as high-grade non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL, typically Burkitt's lymphoma). We evaluated fractionating first rituximab dose to prevent TLS in a real-life B-cell NHL cohort of patients treated at University Hospital of Geneva between 2010 and 2020.
