Factors Associated With Health-related Quality of Life and Social Participation of Patients With Multiple Myeloma and Their Caregivers
Individuals with multiple myeloma (MM) are vulnerable because of the effects of systemic organ damage and the side effects of treatment. A decline in patients' health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and a compromised participation in everyday life was reported. The diagnosis of MM negatively affects the principal informal caregiver. This …
Solving Riddles Through Sequencing
During the last decades hematologists have excelled at improving and refining the classification, diagnosis, and thus ultimately the therapeutic decision-making process for their patients. This continuous evolution proceeded in parallel to seminal discoveries in basic science such as FISH, PCR and NGS. So far, the current WHO classification serves as …
Radiotherapy & Total Neoadjuvant Therapy for Recurrent Rectal Cancer in Previously Irradiated Patients, an Italian Association for Radiotherapy and Clinical Oncology (AIRO)-GI Platform: a Multi-centre Prospective Observational Study
The introduction of neoadjuvant chemoradiation therapy (CRT) and the use of advanced surgical techniques have led to a reduction in mortality and recurrence rates for rectal cancer, the rate of which currently stands at 4-8%. Complete cytoreduction (achieving R0) of local recurrence is the main factor correlating with survival, but …
"Wait-and-see" Policy for Complete Responders After Chemoradiotherapy for Rectal Cancer
The aim of this prospective observational cohort study is to provide short and long term oncological and functional outcome data on organ preserving treatment in good responders after a standard indication for neoadjuvant (chemo)radiation for rectal cancer.
Selection of Surgical Technique in Rectal Cancer
Currently, there is no prediction scale available to identify patients with rectal neoplasms as technically complex in the middle and lower thirds; that is, those who are at high risk of affected circumferential margins and low quality of the mesorectum. The application of a predictive model that allows preoperative identification …
Study for Wait and Watch Suitable in Rectal Cancer
One of the standard treatment options offered to patients of locally advanced rectal cancer is neoadjuvant (treatment given before surgery) radiotherapy & chemotherapy followed by surgery. In patients whose tumour has completely reduced after neoadjuvant treatment, the wait and watch strategy is also an option. This is another standard treatment …
High Dose Rate (HDR) Brachytherapy Salvage After Prostatectomy
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the long-term effects of HDR Brachytherapy in men with isolated local relapses after radical prostatectomy. The main question it aims to answer is: Does HDR Brachytherapy increase control rates and decreases complications compared with conventional External Irradiation? Participants will be …
Cardio-Oncology Rehabilitation Exercise
Women with breast cancer who are referred to the cardiac rehabilitation program at the Toronto Rehabilitation Institute will be invited to enrol in this observational study. Participants will take part in an established 16-week multimodal cardiac rehabilitation program (HEALTh program) at Toronto Rehabilitation Institute and outcome measures will be assessed …
Prostate Cancer Care Disparity Analysis Project (ProGAP)
This international cross-sectional study seeks to evaluate global disparities in prostate cancer management by conducting a thorough comparison of key elements across countries categorized as low-income, lower-middle-income, upper-middle-income, and high-income. The primary question it addresses is: Are the standards of care for prostate cancer uniformly applied across different geographic regions …
Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Associated Cardiovascular Adverse Events in Patients With Cancer
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) have revolutionized cancer treatment and are now approved for various types of cancer. The most common side effects of ICI are immune-related adverse events which can affect any organ or system in the body. Recently, concerns have also risen about cardiovascular effects of ICI. Retrospective studies …
