The study population has locally advanced or metastatic bronchial or head and neck cancer. This study assesses the value of concomitant chemo/radiotherapy with carboplatin daily during metastatic radiotherapy versus radiotherapy alone. The realization of a systemic treatment du…

Single-arm, phase 2 study evaluating hypofractionated irradiation of breast and regional nodes in women with breast cancer. Patients will be grouped in 3 surgery-related treatment groups: 1) An intact breast following lumpectomy; 2) plans for loco regional external beam radiother…

The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness between the cervical pessary and the natural progesterone in reduction of preterm birth rates in pregnant women with a uterine cervical length of 25 mm or less evaluated by transvaginal ultrasonography.

The purpose of this study is to test the hypothesis that renal denervation decreases blood pressure and is safe when studied in the presence of up to three standard antihypertensive medications.

CDH is a birth defect characterized by the development, very early in gestation, of a hole in the diaphragm, the breathing muscle that separates the chest from the abdomen. As a result, the intestines and other organs in the abdomen can move into the chest and press on the develo…

Background: Prostate cancer is difficult to detect using ultrasound. As a result, in case of suspicion of prostate cancer based on digital rectal examination (DRE) or Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) level, it is currently recommended to perform "blinded" systematically distribute…

The purpose of this study is to evaluate how safe and effective the combination of the study drugs romidepsin and lenalidomide is for treating patients with peripheral t-cell lymphoma (PTCL) who have not been previously treated for this cancer. Currently, there is no standard tre…

To evaluate the safety and feasibility of pre-operative SABR of RCC IVC tumor thrombus. To evaluate the effect of pre-operative SABR in RCC IVC tumor thrombus on relapse free survival at one year.

This study is being done to determine how long it takes for the engraftment (recovery of blood cell counts) of umbilical cord stem cells and also how often engraftment of umbilical cord stem cells transplanted from an unrelated donor fails. Another purpose will be to document the…

This research study is evaluating a drug called clofarabine as a possible treatment for Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis (LCH) and and other histiocytic disorders.

The overall goal of this study is to elucidate how emotion network dynamics relate to the behavioral, autonomic, and experiential changes that accompany emotions and to investigate how emotion network dysfunction relates to affective symptoms. Affective symptoms are a common feat…

The study is being done to find out if the results of a pre-treatment biopsy can predict response to cisplatin and radiation treatment for patients with metastatic or recurrent triple negative breast cancer.

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is an abnormal heart rhythm in which the top chambers of the heart beat very fast. AF catheter ablation is a known technique to convert heart rhythm from AF to normal rhythm. The technique sends out electrical energy through a catheter (long thin round so…

This is a phase III, multicentric, single arm study with a sequential design using the exact conditional Poisson test. The primary objective of this prospective study is to evaluate whether selected breast carcinoma patients could be treated with nipple sparing mastectomy (NSM) …

Patients eligibility to targeted therapies relies on a molecular test performed on a tumor sample collected by biopsy. This invasive procedure is associated with a relative high risk of morbidity and requires the intervention of a costly and important technical platform. Thus, in…

This research is being done because these viruses have been shown to shrink tumours in animals and human tumour samples by selectively killing cancer cells and creating an immune response to the tumour antigen contained in the viruses. This effect has been shown to increase when …

This study is being done to see whether or not a drug called ibrutinib can be given to patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) as maintenance therapy after induction chemotherapy. This drug blocks an enzyme that affects how the lymphocytes grow and survive. The investigators hop…

Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) affects more than 350 million people worldwide. The most common form in Europe is CHB HBeAg-negative. Antiviral treatment of CHB HBeAg-negative patients includes chronic administration of nucleos(t)ide analogues (NUC) or pegylated interferon (PegIFN) dur…

90 patients with HER2 negative breast cancer will be randomised to receive 18 weeks of chemotherapy treatment, either 6 cycles of 3 weekly Cabazitaxel or 6 cycles of weekly Paclitaxel to determine the difference in progression free survival between the 2 groups. If results at tha…

Carotid revascularization for primary prevention of stroke (CREST-2) is two independent multicenter, randomized controlled trials of carotid revascularization and intensive medical management versus medical management alone in patients with asymptomatic high-grade carotid stenosi…
