Integrated Cancer Repository for Cancer Research
The iCaRe2 is a multi-institutional resource created and maintained by the Fred & Pamela Buffett Cancer Center to collect and manage standardized, multi-dimensional, longitudinal data and biospecimens on consented adult cancer patients, high-risk individuals, and normal controls. The distinct characteristic of the iCaRe2 is its geographical coverage, with a significant …
The EMINENCE Study - PET/MR Imaging of Head Neck Cancer
Head and neck cancers (HNC) often receive radiotherapy as part of their treatment. However, unacceptable failure rates and severe side effects remain a challenge. The improvements in radiotherapy are closely related to improvements in medical imaging. Functional imaging, where intratumoural characteristics such as tumour oxygenation, metabolism, and blood vessel function …
Radiation Field, Dose and Fractionation Related to Mandibular Complications
Radiotherapy is inhibiting the healing capacity of the mandibular bone. Late complications as bone exposure, fracture of the jaw, osteoradionecrosis might be a consequence of this vulnerability. A factor that could be involved in the development of complications is field of radiation. There are limited number of studies investigating this …
Circulating Tumor DNA (ctDNA) in Locally Advanced Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) is a blood-based test that measures dying or dead cancer cells that are already circulating in the blood. In this study, the investigators will enroll patients who are planning to receive surgery to remove their head and neck cancer. The investigators are interested to learn how …
Pilot Study to Evaluate Photoacoustic Imaging in Head and Neck Cancer
In this study, PA imaging will be used to examine the physiological and physical changes in lymph node involvements of head and neck cancer during radiotherapy with or without chemotherapy. Our objective in this pilot study will be to evaluate if PA parameters change within the lymph node involvements during …
Head and Neck Early Relapse Detection Study (HERD)
Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma is the 6th most common cancer worldwide with an annual incidence of 12000 cases in the UK alone. More than 60% of cases are diagnosed at the locally advanced stage. These patients are treated with radical intent, using a combination of surgery, radiotherapy and/or …
Identification and Characterization of Novel Proteins and Genes in Head and Neck Cancer
Through this study, we hope to learn more about the mechanisms, which may contribute to development and progression of head and neck cancer. The long-term goal of this study will be to develop new strategies and drugs for the diagnosis and treatment of head and neck cancer.
Establishment of Squamous Cell Organoids of the Head and Neck to Assess Their Response to Innovative Therapies
The emergence of tumor organoid cultures in recent years has made it possible to widen the repertoire of available preclinical tumor models and to bridge the gap between cell lines and tumors of xenografted patients in mice (PDXs).These organoids have the advantages of being able to be amplified fairly quickly …
Single and Combined Modality Trans-Oral Robotic Surgery in Early Oropharyngeal Cancer
Multi-centre retrospective observational cohort study with optional exploratory radiomic study (international) and prospective molecular analysis studies (UK only).
Prognostic Markers for a Better Follow-up in Head and Neck Cancer.
To identify tumor specific DNA mutations and aberrations and to follow these in blood over time to predict treatment response/survival and secondly to correlate presence of these markers in blood to pathological parameters (LVI, Pn, WPOI and margins), radiological findings and to tumor stage.
