F-18 Tetrafluoroborate PET/CT in Differentiated Thyroid Cancer
In patients who have undergone surgery for differentiated thyroid cancer and who demonstrate elevated serum Tg and/or ATg levels during follow-up after radioactive iodine therapy, lesion detection is performed using neck ultrasonography, thorax CT, and F-18 FDG PET/CT. Diagnostic whole-body scanning with low-dose I-131 is not routinely recommended in follow-up …
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.
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 …
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 …
Dual-Channel Near-Infrared Autofluorescence Imaging and AI Analysis to Locate Parathyroid Glands (PTFinder)
This study tests PTFinder, a dual-camera system that makes parathyroid glands glow on screen by capturing their natural near-infrared autofluorescence. After a thyroid or parathyroid operation, the removed tissue is scanned with PTFinder and then checked again under normal white light. We will measure how fast (seconds) and how accurately …
Novel Bipolar Radiofrequency Ablation Knife in Esophageal Lesions
Both Baylor St Luke's Medical Center and Mayo Scottsdale are considered endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) centers of excellence. The investigators at Baylor College of Medicine have previously reported our Esophageal ESD experience using the monopolar current knife. Moreover, the research team have previously reported on the clinical efficacy of the …
Evaluation of Skin Health and QoL in Pts Receiving Anti-PD1/PDL1/CTLA4 or CDK Inhibitors.
The study aim to investigate the relationship between cutaneous adverse events and quality of life in patients taking immune check point inhibitor or cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) 4 and 6 inhibitors by two steps. In the first one, it will be investigated the relationship between the skin toxicity related to the …
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.
A Phase 1 Study of EPI-326 in EGFR-mutant NSCLC and HNSCC
A phase 1 study to determine the safety, tolerability, PK, PD, and preliminary anti-tumor activity of ascending doses of EPI-326 administered to patients with locally advanced or metastatic HNSCC and to patients with any documented EGFR-mutant locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC.
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) …
