Active clinical trials for "Neoplasm Metastasis"

Feasibility study regarding 20 Patients with peritoneal metastases from colorectal cancer treated with cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC and subsequently with 4 courses of normothermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy - long term (NIPEC-OXA) with oxaliplatin.

This is a multicenter，randomized, double-blind, active-controlled, parallel-group study comparing efficacy and safety of LY01011 (recombinant anti-RANKL human monoclonal antibody injection) and Xgeva® in patients with bone metastases from solid tumors.

This study focuses on treatment outcomes of human metastatic cancer which usually fares with dismal (<5%) survival at 5 years following first diagnosis of a metastasis. However, a subgroup of patients with an initial oligometastatic presentation (i.e. 1-5 clinically detectable lesions) have been reported to respond to complete surgical removal of detectable deposits with up to 20% disease-free survival at 10 years. Patients relapsing with a second oligometastatic presentation respond to a second round of ablation with encouraging rates of 5-year disease free survival. Based on patterns of response to therapy and relapse, we propose investigate on the hypothesis that metastatic disease may be limited in extent, slowly growing and amenable to successive eradication of metastatic deposits. For visible tumor ablation, we propose to employ the effective and safe technique of Single Dose Image-Guided Radiotherapy (SDRT) and to optimize its use in conjunction with systemic therapy. Where SDRT at a full ablative dose (24Gy) is deemed unfeasible, hypofractionated SBRT (9Gy x3) will be offered. Response assessment will be via local control, poly-metastasis-free survival and overall survival rates. Preliminary phase I/II studies indicate remarkable benefits from the SDRT/SBRT in patients with limited metastatic disease. The expected outcomes may be significant conceptual and practical changes in the management of selected metastatic settings resulting in long-term periods of disease-free and overall survival in settings presently associated with dismal prognosis.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects on neurocognitive function of whole-brain radiotherapy (WBRT) with/without TMZ concurrent chemotherapy or avoidance of hippocampus for patients of brain metastases, as well as the feasibility and risk of avoidance of hippocampus during whole-brain radiotherapy.

Prospective observational study to assess bone predictive biomarkers for TKI response in RCC patients with bone metastasis and HRQoL with TKI in these patients as well as the sensitivity and specificity of whole body magnetic resonance versus bone scintigraphy and versus CT in the assessment of metastatic lesions at bone level and at other sites.

This study will give comparison of the bone pain remission and the adverse reaction of Zoledronic acid combine with High dose fractionation radiotherapy(30Gy/10f) and Zoledronic acid combine with low dose fractionation radiotherapy(15Gy/5f) . The purpose of this trial is to prove whether Zoledronic acid combine radiotherapy can reduce radiotherapy dose in treatment of non-small cell lung cancer bone metastasis'pain relief or not.

This study evaluates hippocampus-sparing whole-brain radiotherapy with simultaneous integrated boost for patients with multiple brain metastases from non-small cell lung cancer. The primary endpoint is intracranial progression free survival, and secondary endpoints are verbal neurocognitive function, overall survival, adverse events according to CTCAE v4.03, and quality of life.

This is a single-center, open-label, single-arm, non-randomized study designed to evaluate PFS, safety, overall survival (OS), objective response rate (OPR), disease control rate (DCR) and biomarkers of cancer therapy based on Alphacait screening system in subjects with advanced malignant tumor.

Patients with renal failure or other reason for contraindication for contrast enhanced computed tomography (CECT) or contrast enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (CEMRI) with suspected liver pathology will be evaluated with Sonazoid enhanced Ultrasound

This study is a prospective, randomized, monocentre, controlled explorative study in the parallel-group design to determine the pain relief after RT of patients with spinal bone metastases. Thereby two different techniques were evaluated: single fraction IMRT with 1 x 24 Gy versus fractionated RT with 10 x 3 Gy. Prior to their enrolment into the study, the patients will undergo a staging of the vertebral column in connection with their radiation-planning computed tomography (CT) and MRI to measure the myelon dimension. After the baseline results have been recorded, the patients will be randomized into one of the two groups: single-fraction IMRT 1 x 24 Gy (n = 30) or fractionated RT 10 x 3 Gy (n = 30). The target parameters will be measured and recorded at baseline, at the end of RT (t1) and twelve weeks (t2) and six months following the end of the irradiation period (t3).
