Lesion Dosimetry With Iodine-124 in Metastatic Thyroid Carcinoma
The purpose of this study is to evaluate a new diagnostic imaging test, positron emission tomography (PET), with a different radioactive form of iodine called iodine-124. This form is able to accurately measure the amount of radioactive iodine uptake in the cancer. If the new test determines sufficient radioiodine uptake …
Dual-port Trans-subclavian Thyroid Endoscopic Surgery
This is a prospective, single-center, open-label, non-randomized controlled real-world study aimed at exploring a novel approach to cavity construction for thyroid endoscopic surgery. The study seeks to evaluate its effectiveness and safety while accumulating further evidence-based medical data. Three hundred patients with thyroid tumors were divided into an experimental group …
Comparative Study Between (FC-SEMS) and (PC-SEMS) in the Palliation of Dysphagia Due to Malignant Neoplasm of Esophagus.
Esophageal cancer is the seventh most common type of cancer in the world, with an estimated global incidence of 604,100 new cases per year. The main symptom of esophageal cancer is dysphagia, associated or not with weight loss. Unfortunately, due to asymptomatic presentation in the early stages, more than half …
Neoplastic Barrett Esophagus: Endoscopic Piecemeal vs. En Bloc Resection
The study will compare EMR versus ESD technique (both combined with subsequent ablative therapy) of mucosal resection in Barrett's esophagus with regard to efficacy and risk in a long term setting.
Predictive Value of GOCCLES® Device for Early Diagnosis of Oral Potentially Malignant Disorders
Oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs) are chronic pathologies which can suffer dysplastic alterations and evolve into oral cancer. The diagnosis of those pathologies is commonly done by visual inspection, which is not capable of determining the presence or not of dysplasia. Furthermore, this type of diagnosis depends greatly on the …
Effects of Bright-light Exposure Combined With Specific Exercise Training (BEST) Program in Patients With Cancer
This study plans to investigate the effectiveness of six-week light exposure combined with an exercise training program on improving sleep-wake rhythm, physical and mental symptoms, quality of life, one-year recurrence rate, and one-year survival rate of patients with lung and esophageal cancer.
Feasibility of Online MR-guided Radiotherapy on a 1.5T MR-Linac
This study investigates the feasibility of imaging and treatment on a novel 1.5 T MR-Linac radiotherapy hybrid device.
Sacituzumab Govitecan in Metastatic Salivary Gland and Thyroid Cancers (SG-SGTC)
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the drug, sacituzumab govitecan, works to treat: Salivary gland cancers that have spread to other parts of the body or come back after previous treatment, and cannot be removed by surgery A type of thyroid cancer (specifically, differentiated thyroid carcinoma) …
Prosthesis Guided Speech Rehabilitation of T1/T2 Cancers of the Tongue
This study will fill a scientific gap in the current knowledge providing data for evaluation of the palatal augmentation prosthesis (PAP) as a therapeutic modality post-surgery. This is a robust scientific randomized prospective clinical trial. Positive outcomes from this study have the potential to dramatically alter the most common issues …
Comparison of 0.4% Hyaluronic Acid Solution Versus Hydroxyethylamide Solution in Submucosal Endoscopic Resections
This is a randomized, single-center clinical trial that will compare the efficacy of two substances used in the submucosal cushion formation stage of endoscopic submucosal resections of early esophageal malignant neoplasms. Such substances are hyaluronic acid in the form of TS-905 Blue Eyeₒ and hydroxyethylamide (Voluven®).
