Endometriosis is a condition where functional endometrial tissue is present outside the uterus. It usually locates in the pelvis, which often includes the ovaries. One of the main concerns when performing surgery is to maintain fertility. Nevertheless, a disadvantage of using monopolar and bipolar instruments for laparoscopic excision or coagulation …
Background Glioblastoma is a type of brain cancer. Treatments include radiation, chemotherapy, and surgery. But survival rates are poor. Researchers think that the drug selinexor, when combined with chemotherapy and radiation, might help. Objective To learn the highest dose of selinexor that people with brain cancer can tolerate when given …
In 1967 spinal cord stimulation (SCS) for the treatment of chronic neuropathic pain was established. Today various pain syndromes like the failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS), the complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS), ischemic pain or phantom limb pain are treated with SCS. The development of this technique based on the …
Multimodality treatment that comprises preoperative fluoropyrimidine with concurrent radiotherapy followed by total mesorectal excision (TME) surgery and adjuvant fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy is recommended as a standard treatment of patients with stage II/III rectal cancer. However, the main target of radiotherapy is local control but no improvement in disease-free survival (DFS) or …
Despite the recent notable advances in the treatment of advanced melanoma with application of growing immunotherapies, patterns of response and factors resulting in treatment failure are poorly understood. Moreover, the application of these therapeutics has been limited in the neoadjuvant setting, particularly in earlier stage disease, even though this strategy …
In this research study, is assessing the feasibility of using an MR-guided implantable microdevice to measure tumor response to chemotherapy and other clinically relevant drugs in participants that have prostate cancer and are scheduled for a radical prostatectomy. The name of the study intervention involved in this study is: Implantation …
The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of supraphysiologic oxygen (hyperoxia) on myocardial function in anaesthetized patients with coronary artery disease.
Lenvatinib is the standard of care for patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The aim of the single-arm, open-label, phase II clinical trial is to assess efficacy and safety of lenvatinib as a preoperative conversion therapy in patients with potentially resectable HCC. Investigator hypothesized that lenvatinib may be an effective …
Significant advances in molecular nuclear medicine imaging in prostate cancer have been achieved in recent years. In particular, the introduction of prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) -based tracers has significantly influenced diagnostic imaging of prostate. If cancer recurs after surgical removal of the prostate, targeted PSMA PET (positron emission tomography) can …
