Prospective Data Collection Initiative on Thoracic Malignancies
Survival after cancer diagnosis strongly depends on local tumor extent, lymph node involvement and the presence of distant metastases. However, there remains great inter-patient variability regarding treatment outcome. A combination of molecular factors, biochemical factors, histopathological features, genomic profile, environmental factors and other clinical factors are likely to influence prognosis …
An International Study on Pediatric Patients With Rare Tumors.
The PARTNER study is an international, prospective, observational study of paediatric patients with very rare tumours.
TRAcking Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Evolution Through Therapy (Rx) EVO
TRACERx EVO is a programme of work using a prospective observational cohort study of participants with early- and late-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and pleural mesothelioma.
Tissue Procurement for Gastric Cancer, Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors (GIST), Esophageal Cancer, Pancreas Cancer, Hepatocellular Cancer, Biliary Cancer, Neuroendocrine, Peritoneal Mesothelioma, Anal Cancer and Colorectal Cancer in Patients Undergoing Surgery or Biopsy
The purpose of this study is to collect and store normal and malignant tissue from patients with gastric cancer, GIST, esophageal cancer, pancreas cancer, hepatocellular cancer, biliary cancer, neuroendocrine, peritoneal mesothelioma, anal cancer and colorectal cancer, an estimated 50 to 100 of each tumor type. To collect and store blood …
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 …
New Preclinical and Clinical Approaches to Mesothelioma
This study protocol involves the coordination between UO1 (IRCCS San Raffaele Hospital) and UO2 (Istituto Nazionale Tumori di Napoli - IRCCS G. Pascale) to explore the role of HMGB1 and CXCR4 in cancer treatment and metastasis. UO1 focuses on the role of HMGB1 in inflammation, mesothelioma progression, and tissue repair, …
Immune Microenvironment and Gene Expression Profiling in Mesothelioma
Pleural and peritoneal mesotheliomas (PPM) are rare cancers mostly related to asbestos-exposure, which are characterized by a complex histopathological diagnosis and staging, few therapeutic options and a dismal prognosis. The main unmet medical need in PPM is the lack of a treatment sequence for affected patients. The advent of immune …
Molecular, Pathologic Intra Tumoral Heterogeneity in Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma
Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a rare pleural cancer, which could be primary or secondary to an asbestos exposure. To enhance our knowledge of this rare disease, an exploration of genetic and tumor mechanism is mandatory. One of the principal difficulty is to harvest sufficient tumour pieces to perform multi-omics …
Rapid Autopsy and Procurement of Cancer Tissue
Background Individuals with cancer of the lung, chest cavity, ovary, or bladder, as well as patients who have been treated with adoptive cell therapy unfortunately commonly succumb to their disease. Some agree to donate their bodies to cancer research that may help the medical community better understand these diseases. Studies …
Genetic Susceptibility in MAlignant Pleural Mesothelioma: Clinical Implication of GermliNE VariaTionS
Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a rare and aggressive neoplasm of the pleural mesothelium, mainly associated to asbestos exposure, still lacking effective therapies. Asbestos is a not-mutagenic agent: its nanosized fibres directly interact with tyrosine kinases (TKs) (e.g. EGFR) and may induce inappropriate receptor dimerization and activation, in absence of …
