Thyroglobulin Point of Care Assay for Rapid Detection of Metastatic Differentiated Thyroid Carcinoma
Background: Despite a favorable prognosis, metastatic cervical lymph nodes (LN), are not uncommon among patients with differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC). Current guidelines recommend that a suspicious cervical LN on neck ultrasound (US) should be investigated with fine needle aspiration biopsy for cytology (FNAC) and for thyroglobulin (Tg) measurement (FNA-Tg), using …
Liver Transplantation in Patients With Unresectable Colorectal Liver Metastases
Multicentric prospective and observational study to assess the 5-year overall survival in a cohort of patients with unresectable liver-only colorectal metastases, well controlled by chemotherapy prior to liver transplantation.
Microsurgical Resection of Intramedullary Spinal Cord Metastases
The aim of the study is to establish a multi-center, retrospective database for patients with intramedullary spinal cord metastases (ISCM) and analyse the functional outcome in surgically treated ISCM patients. The hypothesis is that the surgical treatment of selected ISCM patients does not lead to persistent morbidity and does not …
Molecular Characterisation of Colorectal Cancer Peritoneal Metastases
This project aims to characterise the tumour cell and tumour microenvironment of colorectal cancer peritoneal metastases, understand molecular changes leading to colorectal peritoneal metastasis, identify potential biomarkers and novel treatment strategies.
Characterization of Circulating and Tumor-infiltrating Immune Cells in Malignant Brain Tumors
The goal of this observational study is to characterize the circulating leukocyte profile and the immune T cells distribution within the tumor in patients with malignant brain tumors and to correlate these findings with the oncological outcome. Participants will be subjected to blood sampling before surgery and for 12 months …
Imaging Features for the Risks for Recurrence After Stereotactic Radiosurgery in Brain Metastasis
This trial uses multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to develop and validate imaging risk score to predict radiation necrosis in participants with brain metastasis treated with radiation therapy. Diagnostic procedures, such as multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), may improve the ability to diagnose radiation necrosis early and help establish treatment …
Non-small Cell Lung Cancer With Central Nervous System Metastasis
Cerebrospinal fluid was obtained from the cerebrospinal cavity of non-small cell lung cancer patients with central nervous system metastasis, blood was obtained from veins, and metastatic lung cancer tumor tissue was obtained from surgically resected brain tumors or meningeal tumors. Then comprehensively analyze the exosomes contained in the aforementioned samples, …
Prediction of Peritoneal Metastasis for Gastric Cancer Based on Radiomics
Peritoneal metastasis of gastric cancer is difficult to be detected in time, thus delaying treatment. Based on the conventional CT images of gastric cancer, this study plans to develop, improve and validate an intelligent analysis system based on radiomics. By extracting and combining the radiomics features related to peritoneal metastasis …
Regional Lymph Node Metastasis and Survival Outcomes in Advanced HCC
Tumor-draining lymph nodes play an important role in anti-tumor immune responses. In patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), however, the relationship between regional lymph node metastasis (LNM) and immunotherapy-based efficacy is unclear. This study aimed to evaluate whether extrahepatic LNM is associated with worse survival outcomes as compared to other metastatic …
Stargardt-like Macular Dystrophy (STDG3) Secondary to Mutations in ELOVL4
Background STDG3 is an inherited eye disease. Currently there is no treatment for STDG3. Past studies of STDG3 have largely looked at members of large families at a single time point. Researchers want to learn more about the disease at an individual level. Objective To understand the natural history of …
