Detection of Cancer in Breath Samples by Trained Detection Dogs
The goal of this study is to show that trained detection dogs can identify breast, lung, prostate or colorectal cancer by sniffing masks containing breath samples. In this study, individuals who will undergo cancer screening at an integrated cancer prevention center or biopsy for a suspected malignancy, will be asked …
Measures of Respiratory Health Registry
There are many techniques that can allow for the quantification of lung function in children; some are being used clinically and others are under development. Many of these tools are available at BC Children's Hospital. This registry study will act as a central repository for the results of traditional and …
Emergency PWAS in Respiratory Infectious Disease
Develop an emergency PanorOmics Wide Association Study (ePWAS) for the early, rapid biological and pathophysiological characterisation of known and novel Infectious Diseases in adult patients presenting to emergency departments with suspected, acute, community-acquired respiratory infectious disease (scaRID). Phase 1 Develop an ED-ID biobank (named ePWAS-RID). Phase 2 Targeted research for …
A Study of Usage of Brigatinib in the Treatment of Adult Participants for Approved Indications In South Korea
The purpose of this study is to estimate the proportion of all adverse events (AEs) including serious adverse events (SAEs) occurring with the use of brigatinib among adult participants who have been administered brigatinib as per the approved indications.
Patient's Whole Process Follow-up Management(HOPE-1)
Our project is going to explore whether management and follow-up of locally advanced/metastatic patients using the patient process management platform can prolong patient survival and improve patient quality of life.
Evaluation for NCI Surgery Branch Clinical Research Protocols
Background The National Cancer Institute Surgery Branch (NCI-SB) has developed experimental therapies that involve taking white blood cells from patients' tumor or from their blood, growing them in the laboratory in large numbers, and then giving the cells back to the patient. Objective This study will allow patients to under …
POINTING: Clinical Cohort Study of Patients With Melanoma and NSCLC Receiving Checkpoint Inhibitors
This is a two-center, prospective continuously accruing longitudinal cohort study in patients with non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) or metastatic melanoma eligible for standard anti-PD-1 antibody treatment. The data from this prospective longitudinal cohort will be used in the POINTING (towards patient -tailored cancer immunotherapy supported by a multifaceted predictive …
A Prospective Study of Plasma Genotyping as a Noninvasive Biomarker for Genotype-directed Cancer Care
Tumor genotyping has become an essential biomarker for the care of advanced lung cancer and melanoma, and is currently used to identify patients for treatment with targeted kinase inhibitors like erlotinib and vemurafenib. However, tumor genotyping can be slow and cumbersome, and is limited by availability of tumor biopsy tissue …
The Role of Concomitant Diseases in Postoperative Complications Risk Stratification.
Study is conducted to assess the prevalence and structure of comorbidity among patients undergoing abdominal surgery and produce the stratification of the risk of postoperative complications by identifying independent predictors for its development.
Collection of Blood From Patients With Cancer, Other Tumors, or Tumor Predisposition Syndromes for Genetic Analysis
Background Some genes may be associated with a greater chance of side effects during cancer treatment. These genes may also make certain treatments less effective. Researchers want to collect blood or cheek swab samples from people having cancer treatment to study these genes. Objectives To obtain a blood or cheek …
