This clinical trial compares the effect a financial intervention, called Financial Compass, to usual care in identifying and addressing financial hardship in patients with head and neck cancer. Previous research has shown that head and neck cancer patients experiencing financial hardship have decreased overall and cancer specific survival. Using a …
This study aims to learn more about anal cancer risk in men who have sex with men (MSM) who are using Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) to prevent HIV. Specifically, we want to check how common High-Grade Squamous Intraepithelial Lesions (HSIL) are in this group, how well anal swabs can screen for …
Bladder cancer (BC) is the 6th most common tumor in Europe, with over 540,000 new cases globally each year. While 75% of cases are non-muscle-invasive and treated bladder-preservingly, muscle-invasive, non-metastatic BC requires radical cystectomy (RC), often with neoadjuvant chemotherapy. RC has one of the highest complication rates in urology, and …
This study evaluates the cell and biomarkers associated with the aggressive behavior of cancer.
Currently, the standard of care for female patients undergoing radical cystectomy includes the removal of the bladder, pelvic lymph nodes, anterior vagina, uterus, fallopian tubes and ovaries. Removal of female ancillary organs, both in pre and post-menopausal stages is associated with reduction in various quality of life metrics, including sexual …
Our institution recently began incorporating a novel "tongue-out" radiation therapy (TORT) technique for patients with head and neck tumors at particular subsites (oropharynx, larynx, hypopharynx). Protruding the tongue, i.e. "tongue-out" position, induces anatomical changes that facilitate decreased radiation dose to the oral tongue and PCM. The long-term goal is to …
This phase II trial tests the feasibility and side effects of vaginal DHEA to improve vaginal health after radiation for women with gynecologic, anal or rectal cancer. Treatment of cancers with radiation to the abdomen can influence the vaginal microbiome (any bacteria, virus, or other organisms found in the vagina). …
The purpose of this trial is to learn about the safety and effectiveness of GEN1106 when it is used for the treatment of participants with certain types of cancer. The trial has multiple parts. The first part of the trial tests different doses of GEN1106 to find out if it …
This clinical trial tests the impact of offering hearing tests (audiometry) close to home and remotely on participation in monitoring for treatment-related hearing loss in patients with head and neck squamous cell cancer receiving cisplatin and/or radiation. Cisplatin, a chemotherapy often used to treat head and neck cancers, and radiation …
The loco-regional metastatic or non-metastatic status of lymph nodes (LN) is critical for the therapeutic management of most cancer patients. Indeed, the presence or absence of lymphatic metastasis is essential for the accurate staging of the disease and strongly influence the prognosis and adjuvant treatment regimens. An important revolution in …
