Tissue Procurement and Natural History Study of Patients With Malignant Mesothelioma
Background Malignant mesothelioma is a malignancy arising from the mesothelial cells of the pleura, peritoneum, pericardium, or tunica vaginalis. Mesothelioma accounts for 0.10% of deaths annually in the United States. Malignant pleural mesothelioma is the most common of these, comprising of 80% of the cases with an annual incidence of …
Long Term Follow-up of Mesothelioma Patients and Their Family Members With Germline Mutations in BAP1 and Other Genes
Background -A gene provides instructions to the body. Mutated genes can sometimes cause cancer. Germline mutations are those people are born with. These mutations in the BAP1 gene can cause mesothelioma and other cancers. Researchers want to study people with germline mutations of BAP1 and other genes known to cause …
Prospective Evaluation of High Resolution Dual Energy Computed Tomographic Imaging, Noninvasive (Liquid) Biopsies, and Minimally Invasive Surgical Surveillance for Early Detection of Mesotheliomas in Patients With BAP1 Tumor Predisposition Syndrome
Background A germline mutation is a change to a person s genes that is carried through their DNA. These mutations can be passed on from parents to their offspring. Germline mutations in a gene called BAP1 are linked to the development of mesothelioma and other cancers. Researchers want to follow …
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 …
