Active clinical trials for "Neoplasm Metastasis"

The purpose of this study is to compare 18F-Fluoride PET bone scans to traditional 99mTc-MDP bone scan to determine if one is better for diagnosing bone metastases.

The investigators want to know the role of Peripheral hematopoietic stem cell infusion in avoiding Drug Induced Liver Injury,and also try to research SNPs genotyping associated with Drug Induced Liver Injury.

The aims of this post-marketing observational study (PMOS) are to evaluate the time period needed to achieve > 30% decrease of intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) compared to the initial values and to provide data on the tolerability and compliance of treatment with Zemplar (paricalcitol) capsules in the therapy of secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 3 or 4 in conditions of routine clinical practice.

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of pre and intra-operative bevacizumab injection on postoperative vitreous hemorrhage after diabetic vitrectomy in comparison to vitrectomy without bevacizumab injection.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the intraocular stability and safety of secondary iris-fixated IOLs in aphakic patients.

The purpose of this study is to determine if denosumab is non-inferior to zoledronic acid in the treatment of bone metastases in subjects with advanced breast cancer.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and imaging ability of 111In-DAC when used with planar and SPECT imaging for the detection of lung cancer and brain cancer consistent with metastatic lung cancer.

The goal of this randomized controlled feasibility study was to evaluate the feasibility of preoperative inspiratory muscle training in patients undergoing surgery because of peritoneal metastases. The main questions it aimed to answer was how feasible the intervention is regarding process and scientific feasibility as defined by Thabane et al 2010. Participants in the intervention group were using a handheld device to increase their inspiratory muscle strength prior to surgery and researchers compared this group to a control group who were offered a sham treatment.

The type of liver resection (anatomical resection, AR or nonanatomical resection, NAR) for colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) is subject to debate. The debate may persist because some certain prognostic factors, associated with aggressive biological behavior of tumor, have been overlooked. The aim of our study was to investigate the characteristics of patients who would benefit more from anatomical resection for colorectal liver metastases.

For patients with initially unresectable colorectal liver metastasis (IU-CRLM) receiving effective conversion therapy, disease relapse after conversion hepatectomy is common due to the extensive tumor load. Yet, few studies have focused on the assessment and management of relapse after conversion hepatectomy for IU-CRLM. This study aimed to investigate the impact of surgical management for relapse after conversion hepatectomy in IU-CRLM.
