Since last December 2019, a syndrome of severe pneumonia associated with the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) emerged in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China. It is highly contagious and rapidly spread to many other parts of China and almost all countries all over the world, representing one of the most
A. Early detection of systemic relapses in breast cancer.
WP 1. Analysis of primary tumor.
Analysis of primary tumor and metastases (Pathology group). In this work package both DNA and RNA from the primary tumors of 125 high-risk (Luminal-B) patients will be analyzed by next-generation sequencing
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To estimate major pathological response rate. (Resectable and borderline resectable groups [treatment naive or previously treated]) II. To estimate 6-month disease control rate. (Locally advanced groups [treatment naive or previously treated])
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To
Surgical resection is the main modality of treatment for many solid tumors. Despite successful tumor resection, some patients develop local recurrence or metastasis, causing morbidities and mortality. In recent years, there is growing interest in the pathophysiology of recurrence or metastasis. It
The investigators will conduct a prospective randomized, clinical trial in the Medical Intensive Care Unit at Ohio State University Medical Center. In the intervention arm, respiratory therapists' will conduct oxygen titration with the help of a novel, high fidelity, electronic health records based,
Multispectral photoacoustics enable non-invasive, inexpensive and dose-free real-time imaging of light-absorbing molecules (absorbers), e.g. Deoxyhemoglobin and oxygenated hemoglobin in human tissue. This allows blood oxygen saturation (sO2) to be determined at depths of up to several centimeters.
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
I. To evaluate the incidence of intratumoral hypoxia in patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) malignancies before treatment with chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVE:
I. To evaluate the association between intratumoral hypoxia and clinical
This is a Phase 3 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pacritinib in hospitalized patients with severe COVID-19 with or without cancer. Severe COVID-19 is defined as confirmed disease in patients who are hospitalized with hypoxia
The success of hypoxia-targeted therapies has so far been limited, a fact widely attributed to the absence of a reliable imaging biomarker for hypoxia that could easily be implemented into a routine clinical workflow. A compelling study has found the presence of hypoxia in pancreatic tumors using
BACKGROUND
Since the first case of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome - Coronavirus - 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection and its subsequent clinical manifestation (COronaVIrus Disease 19, COVID-19) in the city of Wuhan (Hubei, China) in December 2019, contagion abruptly spread to different regions of China
Diffusing Alpha-emitter Radiation Therapy is a form of interstitial brachytherapy which may be effective in treating malignant skin and superficial soft tissue tumors for several reasons. First, alpha-emitting radionuclides have a high linear energy transfer (LET), which produces a dense track of
1. Background and objectives:
Coronavirus infection 2019 (COVID-19), linked to the SARS-Cov-2 virus, is rapidly spreading worldwide. After the city of Wuhan and the province of Hubei, European healthcare systems are facing an outbreak of seriously ill patients, but few are fully equipped to manage
Background
COVID-19 has shown a lower case-fatality rate compared to other major viral outbreaks in contemporary history, including severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) of 2002-2003. However, the relative susceptibility to symptomatic infection and the case fatality risk increase substantially
