Itraconazole in Non Small Cell Lung Cancer

The Effect of Itraconazole on the Clinical Outcomes of Patients With Advanced Non Small Cell Lung Cancer Receiving Platinum Based Chemotherapy

time from treatment initiation to either progression, death from any cause or lost to follow up.

time in months from time of diagnosis to death or date of last contact.

To compare radiological response of patients with advanced lung cancer receiving platinum bases chemotherapy combined with itraconazole to those receiving platinum based chemotherapy only after 3 and 6 cycles of chemotherapy.

Patient's quality of life will be assessed at baseline, after 3 cycles, and at the end of chemotherapy treatment using EORTC modules specific to lung cancer.

Incidence and severity will be evaluated using National Cancer Institute-Common Toxicity Criteria for adverse events (CTCAE V4.03).

The intervention will only involve a single treatment with ablative fractional carbon dioxide laser therapy. The investigators will specifically be using the CO2RE® (Syneron Candela Corp, Wayland, MA).

Leg Ulcer

The intervention will include a single treatment of a lower extremity wound with ablative fractional carbon dioxide laser after MMS surgery.

Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of Fractionated Carbon Dioxide Therapy in Postoperative Lower Extremity Wound Healing

A Single Center, Prospective, Double-blinded, Randomized, Placebo-controlled Trial Evaluating the Efficacy of Fractionated Carbon Dioxide Therapy in Postoperative Lower Extremity Wound Healing

Score on the EQ-5D-5L. This is a quality of life questionnaire where higher scores equate to a better quality of life.

Time, in weeks, till complete wound healing in days. Complete wound healing is defined by reepithelization of the wound.

Wound temperature will be recorded in degrees Celsius through an infrared camera.

We will introduce a pretherapy [18F]-FMISO PET-CT in the treatment planning of patients suffering of head and neck cancer and eligible to a radical treatment with curative intent, consisting of conformational radiotherapy with or without chemotherapy or associated targeted therapy. [18F]-FMISO PET-CT results will not be taken into account for the patients' management. We will test different acquisition protocols and use a wild panel of quantification parameters issued from published studies and originals 'one developed by our team enable to describe [18F]-FMISO uptake. Patients will be followed clinically and para-clinically during two years after the end of the treatment according to the edited recommendations of these tumours type and grade to analyze outcome.

Silver, in its common ionic (active) form (Ag+), is particularly attractive as an antibacterial agent because it can be readily incorporated into dressing materials. Silver-dressing are wound products designed to control infection and provide a wound environment conducive to management exudates, pain, and malodour.

Wound specialist or primary nurses undertaking wound care are informed by inclusion criteria that the treatment shall be adhered to during the two-week study period.All wounds are cleansed with sterile saline prior to assessment and dressing application.The sterile, non-woven sodium carboxymethylcellulose primary AQUACEL Ag with 1.2% ionic silver.Each secondary dressing is covered a sterile gauze.Dressings are changed between daily assessments when judged necessary.Patients attended the wound ward weekly for treatment evaluation. All participating clinics used the same wound management guidelines and data collection forms.
