Primary Chemoradiation VS. Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy Followed By Surgery As Treatment Strategy For LAVC
A phase 2 randomised controlled trial will be performed in which the efficacy and safety of standard treatment (primary chemoradiation; consisting of 64.5 Gy in 30 fractions of external beam radiotherapy with weekly cisplatin for six weeks) and experimental treatment (NACT; consisting of carboplatin and paclitaxel in a 3-weekly scheme) …
Feasibility of Endosphenoidal Coil Placement for Imaging of the Sella During Transsphenoidal Surgery
Tumors of the pituitary gland comprise up to 20% of all brain tumors. The central location and the small size of the pituitary gland make the management of tumors particularly challenging. Transsphenoidal surgery (TSS) to resect pituitary tumors is highly successful at achieving complete cure for functional pituitary adenomas. It …
Neoadjuvant Chemoimmunotherapy Followed By Radiation Or Organ Preservation Surgery In Laryngeal/Hypopharyngeal Cancer
In the global landscape of cancer, head and neck malignancies are highly prevalent, with 878,000 new cases and 444,000 deaths recorded in 2020. Notably, laryngeal and hypopharyngeal cancers contribute to around 30% of these instances. More than 50% of patients are diagnosed with locally advanced disease, necessitating intensive treatments that …
The SAFE-Trial: Awake Craniotomy Versus Surgery Under General Anesthesia for Glioblastoma Patients.
The trial is designed as a multicenter randomized controlled study. 246 patients with presumed Glioblastoma Multiforme in eloquent areas on diagnostic MRI will be selected by the neurosurgeons according the eligibility criteria (see under). After written informed consent is obtained, the patient will be randomized for an awake craniotomy (AC) …
Intra-wound Vancomycin Powder for Prevention of Surgical Site Infection Following Spinal Surgery
Cefazolin is given routinely pre and intraoperatively for patients undergoing spinal surgery to reduce the rate of infection. Intra-wound admission of Vancomycin powder has been suggested to reduce wound infection rates. Therefore, this study aims to compare the rate of wound-related complications between patients receiving standard treatment compared to patients …
To Study the Effects of Refractive Surgery on OCT Measurements in the Eye
Corrective eye surgeries, such as Lasik, are widely used to correct focusing problems such as myopia, or nearsightedness. Often these patients develop other conditions like myopic maculopathy or glaucoma which require monitoring with optical coherence tomography (OCT). Since OCT is a light-based test and changes the refractive status of the …
A Study to Compare Early and Partial Weight-bearing After Hallux Valgus Surgery
This is a two-arm randomized controlled trial with the aim to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of post-operative management after a modified Lapidus arthrodesis with/without an Akin or a Weil/Hohmann surgery fusion with immediate complete weight-bearing compared with partial weight-bearing (10 - 15kg) for 6 weeks as a novel approach …
Electrocorticography in Mapping Functional Brain Areas During Surgery in Patients With Brain Tumors
This pilot clinical trial studies how well electrocorticography works in mapping functional brain areas during surgery in patients with brain tumors. Using a larger than the standard mapping grid currently used during brain tumor surgery or a high-definition grid for electrocorticogram brain mapping may help doctors to better identify which …
Surgery With or Without Chemotherapy for Stage I NSCLC With Micropapillary Component ≥ 20%
Randomized phase II trial aims to compare surgery with or without adjuvant chemotherapy in treating patients who are pathologically diagnosed as stage I lung adenocarcinoma with micropapillary component no less than 20%.
Diet Modification in pAtients With Luminal Early Breast Cancer Candidate for Primary Surgery
to analyze the feasibility for patients with early luminal breast cancer to be compliant with a diet modification - ketogenic or proteins restricted diet - during 9 +/- 1 days, before breast cancer surgery. It's a Pilot study, monocentric, randomized
