Detection and Metabolic Characterization in DOPA PET/CT of Brain Metastases
About 20 to 30% of patients treated for cancer will have brain metastases. These brain metastases are found more frequently in patients with lung cancer, breast cancer or melanoma. The prognosis of these patients is unfavorable but prolonged survival can be obtained with the local and systemic treatments currently available. …
Dose-staged Gamma Knife Radiosurgery Versus Microsurgical Resection
Background. Brain metastases (BM) are the most common intracranial tumor and occur in 20-40% of all oncological patients. The most common primary cancer in brain metastases is lung cancer, followed by melanoma, breast cancer, renal cancer and colorectal cancer. The incidence of brain metastases has been increasing but the occurrence …
TACE Combined With Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors for Liver Malignant Tumors
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of TACE combined with immune checkpoint inhibitors to treat unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma.
Electroacupuncture for Dysmenorrhea Secondary to Adenomyosis
The aim of this study is to preliminarily evaluate the is to assess the effects and safety of electroacupuncture for moderate to severe dysmenorrhea secondary to adenomyosis.
18F-FSPG PET in Imaging Patients With Liver Cancer Before Undergoing Surgery or Transplant
This clinical trial studies fluorine F 18 L-glutamate derivative BAY94-9392 (18F-FSPG) positron emission tomography (PET) in imaging patients with liver cancer before undergoing surgery or transplant. Diagnostic procedures, such as 18F-FSPG PET, may help find and diagnose liver cancer and find out how far the disease has spread.
PIPAC for Peritoneal Metastases
Pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (PIPAC) is a novel drug delivery system that allows the direct application of chemotherapeutic agents into the peritoneal cavity. It boosts improved distribution, enhanced tissue uptake and repeatability using minimally invasive access. It was devised to palliate the local symptoms of extensive peritoneal metastases (PM) in …
Early Radiotherapy Versus Observation for High-risk Asymptomatic or Minimally Symptomatic Bone Metastases
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether radiotherapy (i.e. treatment with ionizing radiation to destroy cancer cells) can prevent symptoms in patients with metastatic cancer, having high-risk bone metastases that currently result in no or only mild symptoms. High-risk bone metastases are bone metastases at high-risk of …
Efficacy of Angiographic Embolization vs Non-embolization of Moderate/Poor Vascularized Vertebral Metastases on Intraoperative Bleeding During Surgery Decompression and Vertebral Stabilization.
Although angiographic embolization has been introduced for preoperative management of spine metastases in 1975 and is suggested today by many authors in the management of such pathologies, it needs to be confirmed by RCT. It is a minimally invasive procedure, not free from complications. The recent meta-analyzes, due to the …
Colorectal Metastasis Prevention International Trial 2
The short perioperative period (days to weeks around surgery) is characterized by stress-inflammatory responses, including catecholamines (CAs, e.g., adrenaline) and prostaglandins (PGs, e.g., prostaglandin-E2) release, and induce deleterious pro-metastatic effects. Animal studies implicated excess perioperative release of CAs and PGs in facilitating cancer progression by affecting the malignant tissue, its …
Stereotactic Radiotherapy (SBRT) of Lung Metastasis
The purpose of this institutional protocol is to offer SBRT to selected patients in a controlled environment to refine treatment techniques (including dose/fractionation schedules) and standardize follow-up. SBRT has been in clinical use for over a decade in some institutions and the available data suggest that it can be used …
