TARE uses radioactive microspheres (20-60 μm), which are trapped in tumors due to abnormal vasculature, while normal liver sinusoids (≤15 μm) prevent their passage. However, some microspheres may drain into hepatic veins and reach the lungs, risking radiation pneumonitis. Pre-procedural evaluation with angiography and nuclear imaging (MAA scan with SPECT/CT) …
The goal of this observational study is to learn how tumor tissue and blood samples from patients with sarcomas or metastases can be used to create laboratory models that help researchers study cancer behavior and test new treatments. Participants diagnosed with sarcoma or with bone or lung metastases from solid …
The goal of this clinical trial is to characterize the biomolecular profile of bone metastases to define the predisposing profiles of bone metastasis, in patients with breast or lung or renal carcinomas or of the gastroenteric or prostate tract with bone metastasis. The main question it aims to answer is: …
This study is based on the finding that tumor cells that are grown in the laboratory can be modified in such a way that, when injected to the patient, they will stimulate his/her immune response. This approach will be evaluated in patients with melanoma and colorectal, gastric, ovarian, breast, lung …
To date, arterial embolization constitutes one of the most popular methods in minimally invasive treatment of bone metastases, allowing good results in terms of pain reduction, local control of disease and reduction of peri-operative bleeding, with low invasiveness.
To compare increasing doses and different treatment schedules of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) against standard treatment scheduling.
Background: Spinal metastatic disease constitute a serious clinical problem in oncology. Bones are the third most common organ where metastases are located, and the spine is the place where they are most often located. Due to the complexity of the clinical problem, metastatic spine disease remains of interest to many …
From the archives of the Rizzoli institute all patients (approximately 750) treated for bone metastases from 01/01/2010 to 31/12/2022. A review will be made from the medical records, radiological imaging, and histological data of these patients
BOREALIS is a multicentre, prospective, observational cohort study designed to investigate the effectiveness, feasibility, safety and impact on pain and quality of life of curative-intent cryoablation for the treatment of bone metastases in patients with oligometastatic or bone oligo-progressive disease.
The goal of this study is to provide proof that patients can be treated with simulation-free, single-fraction palliative radiation therapy with a single in-person visit.
