Examining Blood and Tissue Samples to Identify Diagnostic Markers in Patients With Metastatic Cancer Undergoing Tumor Removal
This study characterizes deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and proteomic (protein) changes in both biopsies and tumors removed during surgery of patients who have been diagnosed with aggressive/metastatic (that has spread to other places in the body) cancer in order to identify possible diagnostic markers and potential drugs for treating aggressive tumor …
On-treatment Surveillance of Tumor Evolution and Response to Systemic Treatment in Bile Duct and Liver Cancer
The BILLIONSTARS study is a prospective, single arm observational study inviting patients diagnosed with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) or cholangiocarcinoma (CCC) who are to be recommended locoregional intervention by surgery, ablation or transarterial chemoembolization and/or antitumoral medical treatment. The aim is to investigate how tumor- and individual-related factors affect response to …
The Role of Micrometastasis and Isolated Tumor Cells (ITCs) in Endometrial and Cervical Cancer. A Multicenter Study.
The role of small-volume lymph node disease (ITC and micro metastases) among patients with endometrial or cervical cancer submitted to sentinel node (SLN) procedure is not clearly defined. This study was designed to create a dataset of patients with lymph nodal disease. Data on type and volume of lymph nodal …
Ultrasound Spectroscopy as Early Indicators of Radiation Treatment Response in Prostate, Rectum and Head & Neck Cancers
Our objective in this study is to identify an optimal ultrasound spectroscopy parameter that can be used as an early predictor of pathological complete or partial response in men with prostate cancer and men and women with rectum and head and neck cancers receiving treatment radiotherapy. We have previously demonstrated …
Analysis of Primary and Metastatic Tumors in Patients With Renal Cell Carcinoma and Urothelial Carcinoma
This is a comparative study using resected/ biopsied tumors samples collected from renal cell carcinoma and urothelial carcinoma patients who underwent surgical removal of lesions, followed by immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) treatment targting programmed cell death 1 (PD1) but developed new lesions later were also removed and stored in the …
The Impact of Laparotomy and Analgesia Methods on Diaphragm
Major abdominal surgeries are traditionally performed via laparotomy. Analgesia is routinely administered during the postoperative period. The goal is to investigate the effects of laparotomy and analgesia methods on diaphragm function.
Preoperative Sarcopenia and Surgical Outcomes in Colorectal Cancer Patients
Colorectal cancer is the third most common malignant neoplasm worldwide and the fourth leading cause of cancer-related deaths. Muscle mass loss in oncology patients is most often the result of cancer-related malnutrition. Sarcopenia is a progressive and generalized skeletal muscle disorder associated with increased likelihood of adverse outcomes such as …
Post Splenectomy Infections After Surgery for Peritoneal Malignancies (OPSI)
The spleen is involved in maintaining immunity and plays an important role in the elimination of encapsulated bacteria and parasites. Patients who undergo splenectomy in conjunction with complete CRS for peritoneal malignancy are at risk of overwhelming post-splenectomy infections post-operatively. These patients are therefore administered vaccinations to lower the risk …
Arabic PRO Measures for Head and Neck Cancer Radiotherapy.
The goal of Arabic patient-reported outcome measures during radiotherapy for head and neck cancer is to test the patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) tools. PROM tools are not validated cross-culturally in Arabic-speaking patient populations, which limits their use in our clinical setting. Validation of these PROM tools will allow clinicians to …
The EMINENCE Study - PET/MR Imaging of Head Neck Cancer
Head and neck cancers (HNC) often receive radiotherapy as part of their treatment. However, unacceptable failure rates and severe side effects remain a challenge. The improvements in radiotherapy are closely related to improvements in medical imaging. Functional imaging, where intratumoural characteristics such as tumour oxygenation, metabolism, and blood vessel function …
