Desmoid tumors (DT) are rare tumors (2-4 cases/million/year) that originate from musculoaponeurotic structures. Although they are benign tumors with no metastatic potential, DT are considered as locally aggressive tumors, with local invasiveness and tissue destruction, leading to…

Annually 13000 Norwegians experience an ischemic stroke. The number of stroke is anticipated to increase with 50% within 2030 due to a growing number of elderly. Many of them will have severe function deficits and reduced quality of life. The investigators have established a coho…

The purpose of this study is to determine cross-sectional and longitudinal medical, behavioral, and cognitive differences between PTEN ASD and other groups, as well as to identify cognitive, neural systems, and molecular biomarkers specific to PTEN ASD. In addition, this study wi…

The purpose of this study is to comprehensively characterize PMS using standardized medical, cognitive, and behavioral measures and to track the natural history of the syndrome using repeated longitudinal assessments. In addition, this study will be aiming to identify biomarkers …

Background: \- Some people with cancer have solid tumors. Others have refractory leukemia. This may not go away after treatment. Researchers want to see if a drug called TURALIO(R) can shrink tumors or stop them from growing. Objectives: \- To find the highest safe dose and si…

This clinical trial aimed to assess the efficiency of micro-osteoperforation for accelerating posterior intrusion in open bite cases. A human sample of thirty subjects was divided into two groups ; Group I (MOP), posterior intrusion with micro-osteoperforation (MOP) and group II …

No agent is known to have efficacy in patients with incurable HNSCC that progressed with prior platin, 5-FU, cetuximab and taxane. Herein lies the unmet need to be addressed by this trial. Based on the preclinical and clinical data presented, the investigators propose that mitomy…

Background: \- Researchers want to find better ways to treat cancer. One drug that treats cancer is paclitaxel. Sometimes proteins block that drug from working. Researchers want to see if another drug, nilotinib, helps paclitaxel work better. Objective: \- To test the safety o…

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of ziv-aflibercept when given together with pembrolizumab in treating patients with solid tumors that that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced).…

The WHISH trial applies state-of-the science behavioral principles and currently available technologies to deliver a physical activity intervention without face-to-face contact to \~25,000 older U.S. women expected to consent. It includes the National Institute of Aging (NIA) Go4…

Stroke is the first cause of motor impairment and disability in adults. Then the main objective of rehabilitation during the first six months following stroke is to facilitate motor recovery. Many post-stroke hemiplegics develop spasticity which is responsible for an increase of …

The purpose of this study is to determine the use of 177Lu-PP-F11N for imaging and therapy of patients with advanced medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC). 177Lu-PP-F11N is a gastrin analogon, binding to cholecystokinin-2 receptors. This receptors show an overexpression on more than …

This study is for patients that have a cancer called Multiple Myeloma, monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) or smoldering myeloma (SM). MGUS and SM have tumor cells that possess nearly identical properties to the cancer cells seen in patients with multiple my…

Several randomized trials suggested a cardioprotective beneficial effect (eg reduction in cardiac troponin release) of remote ischemic preconditioning in cardiac surgery. Remote ischemic preconditioning by brief episodes of ischemia and reperfusion in a remote organ or vascular …

This is a pilot study to determine whether fludarabine-based reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) regimens facilitate successful donor engraftment of patients with acquired aplastic anemia (AA) and Inherited bone marrow failure (iBMF) syndromes undergoing Matched related donor bo…

The radiation therapy or ablation that the patient received as standard therapy treated only the tumors that were radiated or ablated. Radiation therapy or ablation plus pembrolizumab might lead to a stronger immune response that may control or destroy tumors that did not receive…

This randomized phase II trial studies how well cement augmentation works in preventing vertebral body compression fracture following spine stereotactic radiosurgery in patients with solid tumors that have spread to the spine. Spine stereotactic radiosurgery delivers a high dose …

Epilepsy is a common disease affecting 0.5 to 1% of the general population. Epilepsies refractory to drug treatment lead to increased morbidity, mortality and high costs for public health (representing 75% of the costs associated with epilepsy is among the most costly diseases in…

A Phase I study of IDH305 in patients with advanced malignancies that harbor IDH1R132 mutations.

This research will have a significant impact on the overall management of those cancer patients and their family members who are at risk for hereditary cancer due to germline inactivation of BAP1. Our study will ultimately facilitate the development of novel screening, prevention…
