A Randomised Trial of Chemotherapy Plus Surgery for Recurrent Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
The purpose of this study is to determine if the commonly administered chemotherapeutic agents including cisplatin, carboplatin, oxaliplatin, docetaxel and gemcitabine for solid tumors in clinical oncology, either a single format or given as combinations followed by surgery are effective in the treatment of relapsed and refractory non-small cell lung …
A Study Evaluating the Effect of Frozen-Section Directed Excision Surgery on Vulvar Dysplasia
The purpose of this study is to compare "Frozen-Section Directed Excision", which has been a proven method of surgery used in dermatology, versus the current, standard method called "Wide Local Excision" to treat high-grade vulvar dysplasia.
Preliminary Evaluation of a RCMP to Predict Failure of Maxillomandibular Advancement Surgery for OSA
Maxillomandibular advancement (MMA) surgery, one of the most successful surgical procedures for the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), is predominantly used to manage patients with moderate to severe OSA. However, limiting factors include incomplete response in some cases, unfavorable facial changes as a result of large advancements, and risk …
Evaluating a Dropless Postoperative Regimen After Cataract Surgery in a Vulnerable, County-hospital Population
The current postoperative cataract surgery eye drop regimen used at Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital (ZSFG) is a significant burden for its patient population, contributing to high rates of non-adherence and the development of postoperative complications. The investigators propose to replace this complex regimen with a single administration of intraocular …
PD-1 Inhibitor Combined With Neoadjuvant Chemoradiotherapy Plus Surgery for Locally Advanced ESCC (NEOCRTEC2101)
The primary objective is to compare PD-1 inhibitor combined with preoperative chemoradiotherapy followed by surgery versus neo-adjuvant chemoradiotherapy followed by surgery, in terms of the overall survival time (OS) in patients with Stage T1-4aN1-3M0 or T3-4aN0M0 squamous cell esophageal carcinoma.
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.
Patient Management During Major Abdominal Surgery: an Oxygen Consumption Protocol Compared to Standard Approach
This study compares the actual standard of care with a new protocol to guide hemodynamic optimization during major abdominal surgery, which is more tailored on patient real needs. During general anesthesia metabolic needs of the body are markedly reduced and increase in CO may not be necessary. In addition, excessive …
Pembrolizumab in Combination With Chemotherapy and Image-Guided Surgery for Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma (MPM)
The study is a single-arm phase I trial to evaluate the safety, feasibility, and preliminary efficacy of the addition of pembrolizumab and image-guided resection to surgical therapy and chemotherapy for malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM).
Effect of Personalized Pain Coaches After Orthopaedic Surgery for Patients With Sports Medicine Injuries
Patients experiencing sports medicine related injuries are particularly vulnerable to developing both chronic pain and experiencing prolonged opioid use. This multiarmed randomized controlled trial will quantify the impact of integrating Life Care Specialists, pain management focused paraprofessionals, have on increasing access to multimodal pain management approaches and subsequently optimizing both …
Role of Neural and Hormonal Regulation Factors on Insulin Secretion After Gastric Bypass Surgery
RYGB (roux-en-y gastric bypass) has been reported to reverse type 2 diabetes (T2DM) immediately after surgery before any significant weight loss. In addition, a growing number of patients have been recognized with life-threatening hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia several years following their surgery. While the mechanisms by which RYGB improves glucose metabolism or …
