This is a 3-year longitudinal study designed to establish a personalized prediction and prevention system for acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD). Data will be prospectively collected from patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD…

This clinical trial is for men and women with high-grade gliomas. Glucose (sugar) is thought to be a contributor to tumor growth. The ketogenic diet (a high fat, low carbohydrate diet) and metformin (a drug approved by the Food and Drug Administration to treat type 2 diabetes) ar…

The purpose of this study is to compare any good and bad effects of using Ultrapro mesh along with the usual bladder removal surgery, versus having the usual bladder removal surgery without the use of the mesh.

Subjects will be scanned on the QT Ultrasound Breast Scanner. For subjects that may have breast calcifications and/or mass(es) and/or other finding(s) on the QT scan image(s), standard imaging modalities (e.g., mammogram and HHUS) will be performed per ACR recommendations. If av…

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 electrocorti…

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of M6620 and irinotecan hydrochloride in treating patients with solid tumors that have spread to other places in the body (metastatic) or cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). M6620 and irinotecan hydrochloride may …

This pilot clinical trial studies the side effects and best dose of radiation therapy in patients with brain tumors that have come back after previous treatment with radiation therapy. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Giving radiati…

The chemotherapy monitoring is currently based on radiological (RECIST 1.1 guideline) and clinical evaluation every 3 months. Circulating markers as Carcino Embryonic Antigen (CEA), circulating tumour DNA and total cell free DNA represent an alternative approach to evaluate the r…

Patients with metastatic cancer have a substantial symptom burden and may receive aggressive care at the end of life. There is evidence that the use of chemotherapy near the end of life is not related to its likelihood of providing benefit and the overuse of aggressive anticancer…

Introduction: The skull base tumors surgery remains a challenge since numerous cranial nerves or vessels closely surround them. Recently, diffusion tensor imaging has developed with the tractography following white fibers and visualizing functional tracts. Cranial nerves tractogr…

The aim of our study is to assess miRNAs expression profiles in the circuling blood of patients with cystic fibrosis and highlight "signatures" that could reflect the pulmonary status of patients

This study is a multi-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled, Phase I study to evaluate the safety, reactogenicity, tolerability, and immunogenicity of Modified Vaccinia Ankara-Bavarian Nordic-Yellow Fever (MVA-BN-YF) in Flavivirus-naive healthy male and non-pregnant female adu…
