Comparing Radiation Therapy to Usual Care for Patients With High-Risk Bone Asymptomatic Metastases, PREEMPT Trial
This phase III trial compares the effect of adding radiation therapy to usual care on the occurrence of bone-related complications in cancer patients with high-risk bone metastases that are not causing symptoms (asymptomatic). High-risk bone metastases are defined by their location (including hip, shoulder, long bones, and certain levels of …
Arginine and Whole Brain Radiation Therapy for the Treatment of Patients With Brain Metastases
This early phase I trial evaluates different administration techniques (oral or intravenous) for arginine and tests the safety of giving arginine with whole brain radiation therapy in patients who have cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to the brain (brain metastases). Arginine is an essential …
Platform Study of Immunotherapy Combinations in Colorectal Cancer Liver Metastases
The goal of this clinical trial is to to learn about different combinations of immunotherapy in patients with colorectal cancer whose cancer has spread to their liver and are planning to have surgery to remove tumor metastases from their liver. The main questions it aims to answer are: whether these …
Novel Light Delivery Method for Performing Transbronchial Photodynamic Therapy for Peripheral Lung Cancer
This research aims to develop an innovative photodynamic therapy (PDT) for peripheral lung tumors. Current treatments involve surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation. Photodynamic therapy, using light and photosensitizing drugs, is promising but has limitations. Our team proposes using Lipiodol, a contrast agent, instilled into the trachea via bronchoscopy, surrounding the tumor. …
Fluorine-18-AlphaVBeta6-Binding Peptide Positron Emission Tomography in Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
This study investigates fluorine-18-AlphaVBeta6-BP ([18F]-αvβ6-BP) as a Positron Emission (PET) imaging agent in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) patients with brain metastases. Investigators hypothesize that [18F]-αvβ6-BP PET/Computed Tomography (CT) is a sensitive tool for disease assessment in patients with metastatic NSCLC, including those with brain metastases.
Autologous and Allogeneic Whole Cell Cancer Vaccine for Metastatic Tumors
This study is based on the finding that tumor cells that are grown in the laboratory can be modified in such a way that, when injected to the patient, they will stimulate his/her immune response. This approach will be evaluated in patients with melanoma and colorectal, gastric, ovarian, breast, lung …
Standard Versus Radiobiologically-Guided Dose Selected SBRT in Liver Cancer
Radiation is a standard treatment option for patients with liver cancer. Unfortunately, the tumour grows after radiation in many patients and radiation can harm normal tissues. A new treatment using a specialized radiation procedure called Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) may increase the chance to control liver cancer and reduce the …
Intra-arterial Hepatic (IAH) Infusion of Radiolabelled Somatostatin Analogs in GEP-NET Patients With Dominant Liver Metastases
The management of liver metastases in neuroendocrine neoplasms is challenging. Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy with radiolabeled somatostatin analogs (SSA) is one of the most promising therapeutic options. As liver is the most frequent site of metastatic disease, our project proposes to compare administration of radiolabeled SSA by arterial intrahepatic infusion …
Multimodal Prehabilitation During Chemotherapy in Patients With Colorectal Liver Metastases
Liver resection is the only curative treatment for patients with colorectal liver metastases (CRLM). Most patients undergo chemotherapy (CT) before liver surgery. CT objectively decreases patient functional capacity. It has already been demonstrated that a structured training program carried out during the 4 weeks following CT, while the patient is …
Biomolecular Markers of Bone Metastasis
The goal of this clinical trial is to characterize the biomolecular profile of bone metastases to define the predisposing profiles of bone metastasis, in patients with breast or lung or renal carcinomas or of the gastroenteric or prostate tract with bone metastasis. The main question it aims to answer is: …
