Disc degeneration is a progressive deterioration process of the intervertebral disc, which can manifest as significant low back pain and a loss of mobility that interferes with daily activities. This condition is naturally age-related and exacerbated by traumatic events, lifestyle factors, and individual genetic susceptibilities. Treatment for advanced disc degeneration …
This study evaluates the efficacy of adding a human amniotic membrane graft to polypropylene mesh surgery for pelvic prolapse and stress urinary incontinence. The goal is to assess improvements in tissue integration and the reduction of surgical complications
Radical radiotherapy for head and neck squamous cell cancer (HNSCC) can be administered to primary disease with curative intent. Residual disease, recurrence or further tumours may subsequently occur in this irradiated field. It is unknown whether these cancers reflect primary resistance or represent the evolution of resistance on treatment. Understanding …
This phase III trial compares the effect of adding surgery to a standard of care immunotherapy-based drug combination versus a standard of care immunotherapy-based drug combination alone in treating patients with kidney cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, …
This pilot trial studies whether a procedure called lymphovenous bypass would prevent lymphedema (arm swelling) in patients with inflammatory breast cancer or non-inflammatory breast cancer that has spread to nearby tissues or lymph nodes or melanoma. The lymphovenous bypass procedure creates a path for lymphatic fluid to flow away from …
This phase III trial compares durvalumab to the usual approach (patient observation) after surgery for the treatment of patients with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as durvalumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells …
This is a multicenter, 2-arm, randomized, prospective study of patients slated for bilateral cataract extraction. One eye will be randomized to the Study Arm, and the fellow eye will be randomized to the Control Arm.
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the quality of life of participants who have undergone implant-based breast surgery. This will be done using the BREAST-Q questionnaire. The study also aims to demonstrate that the fully resorbable TIGR® Matrix is safe and effective.
The goal of this study is to test two commercially available technologies for their ability to detect treatment response in patients with cervical cancer following surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy: one based on polymerase chain reaction (PCR; NavDx) and the other on branched DNA (Quantivirus HPV \[DNA\]). A 9-month feasibility study …
Introduction: Human life expectancy has increased significantly, leading to a transformation in the global demographic structure. Cancer is considerably more common among older adults compared to younger populations, as age is one of the main risk factors for its development. In fact, most solid tumors are considered age-related diseases. For …
