Active clinical trials for "Recurrence"

The study was designed to evaluate the efficacy of perioperative FLOT chemotherapy in combination with perioperative hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in patients with advanced gastric cancer at high risk of peritoneal metastases. The impact of treatment on peritoneal recurrence and survival over 6 months, 1, 3 and 5 years will be assessed.

To assess whether using retainers and an artificial intelligence supported remote monitoring system maintains a more stable orthodontic treatment result than using retainers with in-office review appointments.

A randomized controlled trial, nested within an existing prospective cohort (Dutch Pancreatic Cancer Project; PACAP) according to the 'trials within cohorts' (TwiCs) design in which the effect of additional local ablative therapy compared to current standard of care alone, on survival after recurrence in patients with isolated local pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) recurrence. The most important secondary endpoint is quality of life. Other secondary endpoints are treatment response, acute and late toxicity, overall survival, progression-free survival, local progression-free survival, distant metastases free survival and reasons for non-eligibility or exclusion.

Endoscopic Mucosal Resection (EMR) is the current standard for effective endoscopic resection of such colon adenomas. If resection is possible in one piece (so-called "en bloc" resection) then recurrence rates are low. However, most non-pedunculated polyps >2 cm are removed in pieces ("piece-meal" resection) which leads to disease recurrence rates between 12-30%. In the March 2019 issue of Gastroenterology Bourke et al. presented that post-EMR ablation of the resection margins using soft coagulation with the tip of a resection snare reduces adenoma recurrence to 5% compared to 21% recurrence found in the control group. Hybrid Argon Plasma Coagulation (h-APC) combines an ablation technique (APC) with the option for submucosal saline injection using a high-pressure water jet. The technique allows to lift of dysplastic epithelium thus creating a safety cushion under the mucosa is lifted with a saline injection and then to ablate larger areas more thoroughly and with a higher energy setting, with a low risk for side effects or complications.

The aim of current cross over clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of topical 5-FU as adjunct therapy in reducing risk of the recurrence of OKCs

This is an exploratory study on the safety, immune response, and preliminary effectiveness of single arm, fixed dose therapy

Efficacy and Safety of Nitazoxanide in preventing recurrence of Hepatic Encephalopathy.

This trial studies best dose and how well repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) works in promoting smoking cessation and preventing relapse in current smokers. rTMS is a form of brain stimulation therapy that controls nerve cell activity, increases blood flow in the brain, and improves cognitive function.

This is a randomized controlled trial to prevent postpartum smoking relapse by breastfeeding promotion. The intervention group (N=30) will receive multicomponent breastfeeding intervention from late pregnancy to 6 months postpartum, while the attention placebo control group (N=30) will receive general infant care counseling and support. The key outcome is the rate of postpartum smoking relapse.

This trial studies how well serial magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and MR spectroscopic imaging work in characterizing lower grade glioma. Diagnostic procedures, such as MR imaging and MR spectroscopic imaging, may detect serial changes in lower grade glioma. This study may help researchers learn more about practical ways of evaluating and standardizing treatment in patients with brain tumors.
