Cervix Hypoxia FAZA
Cervix CancerThe purpose of this study is to look for low levels of oxygen (hypoxia) in your cervix cancer using a special x-ray test called a positron emission tomography (PET)scan. Hypoxia may have an effect on how cervix cancer grows and responds to treatments like radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Doctors at Princess Margaret Hospital have measured hypoxia in over 300 patients. The use of PET scans to measure hypoxia may be better and simpler than the methods used previously.
The PIONEER Initiative: Precision Insights On N-of-1 Ex Vivo Effectiveness Research Based on Individual...
CancerAll Types52 moreThe PIONEER Initiative stands for Precision Insights On N-of-1 Ex vivo Effectiveness Research. The PIONEER Initiative is designed to provide access to functional precision medicine to any cancer patient with any tumor at any medical facility. Tumor tissue is saved at time of biopsy or surgery in multiple formats, including fresh and cryopreserved as a living biospecimen. SpeciCare assists with access to clinical records in order to provide information back to the patient and the patient's clinical care team. The biospecimen tumor tissue is stored in a bio-storage facility and can be shipped anywhere the patient and the clinical team require for further testing. Additionally, the cryopreservation of the biospecimen allows for decisions about testing to be made at a later date. It also facilitates participation in clinical trials. The ability to return research information from this repository back to the patient is the primary end point of the study. The secondary end point is the subjective assessment by the patient and his or her physician as to the potential benefit that this additional information provides over standard of care. Overall the goal of PIONEER is to enable best in class functional precision testing of a patient's tumor tissue to help guide optimal therapy (to date this type of analysis includes organoid drug screening approaches in addition to traditional genomic profiling).
Topical Curcumin for HPV Related Cervical Disease
Neoplasm CervixThe purpose of this study is to see if curcumin can suppress HPV infection in women with low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (LSIL) disease or treated high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL) disease. This study plans to explore the effect of curcumin as a potential medical treatment in HIV-uninfected and infected women with mild precancerous lesions of the cervix or recently treated high-grade precancerous lesions at risk for persistent HPV infection. About 200 women with low-grade precancerous lesions of the cervix or recently treated high-grade precancerous lesions will be enrolled to either insert 2000 mg of curcumin capsules in their vagina once a week or placebo after undergoing colposcopy or loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP). They will have a repeat visit in 6 months where they will undergo a Pap smear and HPV test to determine if there are higher rates of HPV clearance after curcumin administration. If HPV is present or the Pap smear is abnormal, patients will then undergo colposcopic examination to evaluate cervical histology.
Deciphering Mechanisms Underlying Cancer Immunogenicity
Head and Neck CancerOvarian Cancer5 moreThis trial is a translational, open-label, multicentric, prospective cohort study of 900 patients aiming to describe the PD-1 (programmed death) expression in T cells (T lymphocytes) in different solid tumors. The study will be conducted on a population of patients with local and/or metastatic malignant solid tumor and who are followed within a standard of care procedure or clinical trial. Patients with any of the following tumor types may be enrolled in the trial: Head and neck cancer, Ovarian cancer, Cervical cancer, Pre-invasive CIN III cervical cancer (Cervical Intra-epithelial Neoplasia III cervical cancer), Other solid tumor types (including glioblastoma, NSCLC (Non-small cell lung cancer), anal cancer) Each tumor type will be considered as an independent cohort. For each included patient, biological specimen (tumor sample, blood samples and ascites samples if applicable) will be collected. Study participation of each patient will be 5 years.
Assessment of Prognosis Using Peripheral Blood Circulating Tumor DNA in Patients With Cervical Cancer...
Locally Advanced Cervical CancerThis observational study is conducted to assess the value of using peripheral blood ctDNA to detect dynamic changes in HPV and genetic variants in predicting the prognosis of patients with locally advanced cervical cancer, as compared with traditional imaging and tumor markers.
Nimotuzumab Plus Tislelizumab for Recurrent and Metastatic Cervical Cancer
Cervical CancerPatients with recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer have very poor prognosis. For eligible patients, radiotherapy remains the choice, which has the most effective impact on the survival periods. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is overexpressed in cervical cancer cells, anti-EGFR therapy maybe an ideal target for the treatment of cervical cancer. This study aims to discover the progression-free survival of combination therapy with nimotuzumab (an anti-epidermal growth factor receptor [EGFR] IgG1 humanized monoclonal antibody) 、Tislelizumab and radiotherapy in recurrent or metastatic uterine cervical squamous carcinoma in a single-arm, open, phase 2 clinical trial.
A Trial of TQB2868 Plus Platinum-based Chemotherapy With or Without Bevacizumab in the First-line...
Cervical CancerThis study used a single-arm, open phase II multicenter trial design. All eligible subjects received TQB2868 plus platinum-based chemotherapy with or without bevacizumab. A total of 39 subjects will be enrolled.
Prognostic and Diagnostic Added Value of Medical Imaging in Gynecological Cancer (PRODIGYN)
Cervix CancerEndometrial Cancer1 moreThe goal of this observational study is to learn about the added diagnostic and prognostic value of advanced medical imaging procedures in cervical cancer, endometrial cancer and ovarian cancer. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does advanced medical imaging predict survival? Can advanced medical imaging improve radiotherapy target planning? Are advanced medical imaging results associated with risk markers found in tumor tissue? Participants will Undergo four additional imaging procedures, as compared to clinical routine examinations, two at baseline and two after three months. Be subject to clinical follow-up for five years.
MRLinac Boost for Gynecological Cancers if Brachytherapy is Not Feasible (MARGARITA)
Cervical CancerGynecologic CancerThe goal of this observational study is to explore the effectiveness and side effects of a high dose daily adapted SBRT (stereotactic body radiotherapy) boost delivered with MRLinac in patients with gynaecological cancers that cannot receive a brachytherapy boost to the primary tumour for different reasons (medical conditions, tumour extensions, etc). Current alternative for brachytherapy in these situations is often a non-adaptive conebeam- CT guided boost. Conebeam-CT guided non-adaptive high dose SBRT in under these circumstances is described being quite toxic. The main questions this study aims to answer are: In how many cases could local control (i.e. total disappearance of the tumor) is be achieved with this treatment? Which side effects are observed in patients receiving this treatment? Participants will be asked to fill out questionnaires (e.g. regarding side effects). Furthermore, participants are asked if their clinical data may be used for study purposes.
