The purpose of this study is to compare the effects (good and bad) on patients with prostate cancer by comparing the standard dose of radiation therapy (44 treatments over 8½-9 weeks) with a higher daily dose of radiation (5 treatments over 1-2 weeks) to see if the effects of the…

Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is a technique that is used to deliver radiation, to sites in the body. All participants in this study will be treated with SBRT using proton beam radiation. Proton beam radiation uses tiny particles to deliver radiation to tumors. The p…

This Phase 2a study evaluated the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of intravenous human placenta-derived cells (PDA001) compared with placebo in adults with moderate-to-severe Crohn's disease. Three PDA001 dose levels were evaluated.

A) Phase 1: To determine the maximal tolerated dose (MTD) of lenalidomide that can be safely added to high-dose melphalan prior to autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). B) Phase 2: To determine whether the addition of high-dose lenalidomide to ASCT followed by maintenance…

The VITamin D and OmegA-3 TriaL (VITAL) is a randomized clinical trial in 25,871 U.S. men and women investigating whether taking daily dietary supplements of vitamin D3 (2000 IU) or omega-3 fatty acids (Omacor® fish oil, 1 gram) reduces the risk of developing cancer, heart diseas…

Study for the outcome and safety of individualized busulfan dosing with bortezomib for patients preparing for a second stem cell transplant to treat multiple myeloma.

High dose chemotherapy with stem cell transplantation is commonplace in the treatment of multiple myeloma. This treatment uses a chemotherapy drug called Melphalan that has been used in several thousand bone marrow transplant recipients worldwide for the same or similar disorders…

Evaluation of the use of Circulating tumour Cells to guide chemotherapy from the 3rd line of chemotherapy for metastatic breast cancer.

Demonstrate that the High output shotgun sequencing of the foetal DNA in the maternal blood could allow a complete discrimination between the mothers of a trisomic fetus 21 or a DISOMIQUE foetus 21 from the first quarter of the pregnancy, and so to obtain a reliable alternative i…

Background: * WHIMS (Warts, Hypogammaglobulinemia, Infections, and Myelokathexis Syndrome) is caused by various genetic changes that increase the activity of the chemokine receptor, CXCR4. Excessive function of this receptor causes mature neutrophils (part of the white blood cel…

This study is designed to compare two treatments for depression in pre-adolescent (7-13 year old) children. A family-focused treatment will be compared to an individual child-focused treatment in this 14-week intervention.

This study aims to evaluate the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in predicting disease stage and survival in patients diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Using a retrospective design, the research will analyze radiologic imaging data (PET-CT and chest CT) and c…

Newly developed diagnostic parameters have potential to differentiate between epicardial disease and microvascular dysfunction with the help of anatomical details and physiological endpoints and can be used in present clinical settings.

This is a multicenter open label randomized phase II trial. Enrolled Primary Central Nervous System Lymphoma (PCNSL) patients will be stratified according to the IELSG score and randomized to receive one of the follows as primary chemotherapy: * Arm A: Methotrexate (MTX) + Cyta…

The investigators hypothesised that the neuroprotective effects of erythropoietin and its analogues could lead to an improve outcome after cardiac arrest. To test this hypotheses, the investigators designed a randomized, multicentre, simple blind trial in which all participating …

The study compare the standard treatment with nephrectomy + sunitinib to treatment with sunitinib alone without nephrectomy. This study will be the first trial on this competitive context

This research study is being performed to begin to determine the effectiveness of two dominant bariatric surgery procedures versus an intensive lifestyle intervention to induce weight loss in patients and promote improvements in Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in moderately obese…

Stereotaxic radiation by CyberKnife : 3 X 15 Gy over 8 to 10 days for a total of 45 Gy.

The goal of this clinical research study is to find out if adding local therapy (surgery and/or radiation) to standard therapy (chemotherapy or endocrine therapy) in the treatment of patients with metastatic breast cancer can help to control the disease for a longer period of tim…

This phase II trial studies the follow-up after metastasectomy in patients with kidney cancer. Following up patients' health condition after metastasectomy may help doctors to learn if the surgical removal of the primary tumor or the parts of the cancer that has spread to other p…
