Active clinical trials for "Recurrence"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether statin could prevent recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma after curative treatment

The purpose of this study is to reduce breast cancer recurrence and hence increase disease-free survival through a lifestyle program that includes a low glycemic diet, physical activity and vitamin D supplementation in women with breast cancer living in a Mediterranean country.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the sentinel node policy in early stage endometrial carcinomas at intermediate and high risk of recurrence (by comparing the sentinel node policy to current initial staging protocols).

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common primary brain tumor in adults. The treatment comprises maximal safe resection followed by radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Despite appropriate management, 90% of the patients will develop relapse or progression. After progression, the median survival is 5.2 months (Stupp, 2009). The treatment of GBM relapse remains investigational. Reirradiation is an option in selected cases. The objective of this study is to compare 2 schemes of stereotactic hypofractionated radiotherapy in the management of recurrent GBM.

The proposed research intends to randomize 50 abstinent pregnant Black or Hispanic smokers to receive either the attentional retraining (AR) or control VP task. Participants will be asked to carry around a smartphone as they go about their daily lives for 2 weeks in their last month of pregnancy (Phase 1). The smartphone will sound an alert randomly during the day, at which time participants will be asked to respond to a short set of questions assessing subjective states; this will be followed by a request to complete the AR (or control) procedures. This same procedure will be repeated for 2 weeks immediately after delivery (Phase 2). Women will undergo a follow-up visit 3 months after the end of Phase 2, and complete an unmodified VP and follow-up assessments.

This two-arm, double-blind, placebo-controlled randomized clinical trial will enroll pregnant women who quit smoking after learning they were pregnant and are motivated to stay abstinent postpartum. Participants will be randomized to receive extended-release bupropion (active 300mg or placebo once daily beginning 4 to 10 days postpartum to 12 weeks post-randomization). All participants will complete the same data collection procedures (e.g., biological sample collection for hormone and cotinine analysis and completion of validated questionnaires) at baseline (gestational week 36), weekly from 4 to 10 days postpartum through 12 weeks post-randomization and at weeks 12, 24, 36 and 52 post-randomization.

This is a a Simon's two-stage, non-randomized, open label, 2-arm Phase II trial of ONC201 in women with metastatic or recurrent Type II endometrial cancer who failed at least 1 prior chemotherapy regimen.

The study is looking at the role of the mesentery in disease recurrence for ileocolic Crohn's disease. It is a prospective study that has been designed to perform extended mesenteric excision on patients undergoing their first ileocolic resection for Crohn's disease. Endoscopic recurrence will be monitored with the hypothesis that patients receiving extended mesenteric ileocolic resection will have reduced endoscopic recurrence at 6 months after resection.

This study aims to use clinical and biological characteristics of acute leukemias to screen for patient eligibility for available pediatric leukemia sub-trials. Testing bone marrow and blood from patients with leukemia that has come back after treatment or is difficult to treat may provide information about the patient's leukemia that is important when deciding how to best treat it, and may help doctors find better ways to diagnose and treat leukemia in children, adolescents, and young adults.
