Patient and Caregiver Priorities in Neuro-oncology Care
This study is being done to identify patient and caregiver burdens regarding their experience with diagnosis and treatment of CNS tumors. These results will help doctors find areas where patients and caregivers may need more support.
The Role Of Circulating Tumor Cells As Markers Of Advanced Disease And Prognosis In HCC
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) recurs in up to 60% of patients who undergo resection. Circulating tumor cells (CTC) have been advocated as promotors of the recurrence. However, their role as prognostic markers in the surgical setting is unclear. The aim of the present study has been to assess the association between …
Imaging the Interplay Between Axonal Damage and Repair in Multiple Sclerosis
This project is to: Quantify differences in axonal integrity and organization in aMS versus naPMS patients. Quantify changes in axonal integrity and organization in aMS versus naPMS patients over a two-year period. Validate the combination of imaging parameters that best differentiate aMS versus naPMS patients using histopathology.
Using a 3D Culture Model for Circulating Tumor Cells Combined With Molecular Bioassays in Patients With HNSCC Cancer
Cancer has been a significant cause of human death in the recent two decades, although detection, diagnosis, and cancer treatments improved and evolved rapidly. Till now, the reasons why some cancer recurs and others do not remain unclear. Since 2004, circulating tumor cell (CTC) has been well-recognized that CTCs in …
Extending Prostate Genetic Awareness, Navigation, and Delivery: The EXPAND Network
This trial evaluates whether a network of peer genetic coaches is useful for addressing disparities in genetic testing and screening among African American men with prostate cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). While genetic testing has become central …
Drug Sensitivity of Hydrothorax and Ascite Organoids from Breast Cancer
Malignant hydrothorax and ascitic fluid in advanced breast cancer often arise from metastasis to the lungs, pleura, or liver. Patients with this condition experience rapid disease progression and multidrug resistance, facing limited treatment options. Clinical guidelines offer various therapies based on molecular subtypes; however, their effectiveness can be hindered by …
Biopsy After Radioembolization to Identify Changes in Tumor Cells From the Radiation
The purpose of this study is to study the way radioembolization works by collecting biopsy samples of participants' tumors after the procedure. This research may improve the way that radioembolization is performed, which could help people whose cancer has spread to the liver. The research may also provide information about …
Circulating Biomarkers in Patients With Anal Cancer Treated With Induction Chemotherapy
To investigate the prognostic and predictive value of plasma HPV (pHPV) prior, during and after induction chemotherapy (ICT) in locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the anus (SCCA) or synchronous metastatic SCCA patients treated with ICT prior to definitive (chemo)radiotherapy ((C)RT) according to multidisciplinary team (MDT) conferences based decisions. Further …
Assessment of Endometrial Thickness Among Adolescent and Young Adult Patients on Estrogen Replacement Therapy Using Daily Oral Micronized Progesterone Versus the Etonogestrel Implant.
The goal of this observational study is to compare endometrial stripe thickness in adolescent and young adult (AYA) patients with a uterus on estrogen replacement therapy using oral progesterone versus the etonogstrel implant for endometrial protection. The main questions it aims to answer are: Aim 1: Characterize the mean endometrial …
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 …
