Active clinical trials for "Neoplastic Processes"

The primary objective is to patient-reported Quality of Life related to complete control of Radiation Induced Nausea and Vomiting (RINV) between standard palliative radiotherapy and VMAT. Secondarily, we will assess rate of complete control of RINV. However, the investigators hypothesize that there will be no difference in pain response between the two arms, because they are receiving the same dose.

The purpose of the study is to assess screw deviation from pre-planned trajectory using the Mazor X robotic system in patients undergoing posterior thoracolumbar arthrodesis procedures between T2-S1.

This first-in-human open-label, dose escalation study is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and PK of MRX-2843 in subjects with relapsed/refractory advanced and/or metastatic solid tumors.

The present study aims to conduct a randomized controlled trial to assess the effect of CALM intervention and ConquerFear intervention on fear of cancer progression among Chinese patients diagnosed with advanced cancer.

It is the study hypothesis that hypo-fractionated image-guided radiosurgery significantly improves pain relief compared to historic data of conventionally fractionated radiotherapy. Primary endpoint is pain response 3 months after radiosurgery, which is defined as pain reduction of ≥2 points at the treated vertebral site on the 0 to 10 Visual Analogue Scale. 60 patients will be included into this II trial.

In this pilot study the investigators will treat all patients known with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome (PJS) who are diagnosed with advanced malignancies with everolimus 10mg daily until disease progression. Most patients with PJS have an inherited LKB1 mutation leading to aberrant m-TOR activity. Their risk to develop malignancies or intestinal polyps is probably related to this constitutive mTOR signaling. The hypothesis is that mTOR inhibition is an effective anticancer treatment in PJS patients with advanced malignancies.
