PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the safety and tolerability of intratumoral cytidine-phospho-guanosine oligodeoxynucleotide (CpG) in combination with nivolumab and radiotherapy (RT) in chemotherapy-refractory metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse
Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most aggressive type of brain tumor arising from glial cells accounting for 52% of all parenchymal brain cancer cases and 20% of all intracranial tumors. GBM has pronounced mitotic activity, substantial tendency toward neoangiogenesis (microvascular proliferation),
The current risk stratification system defined by clinicopathological features does not identify the risk of disease recurrence in patients with early-stage colorectal cancer (CRC) with optimal accuracy. The investigators aimed to investigate whether the epigenetic alterations could serve as novel
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To evaluate the safety and feasibility of transplantation of cord blood which is expanded in mesenchymal precursor cell (MPC) co-cultures then fucosylated with fucosyltransferase (FT)-VI and guanosine diphosphate (GDP) fucose prior to infusion in patients with hematologic
BACKGROUND Colorectal cancer (CRC) is, by its frequency and consequences, a relevant public health problem that has led to the implementation of population screening programs in many countries. The purpose of these programs is to reduce the incidence and mortality of CRC by early diagnosis of the
Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia (ALL) is the most frequent cancer in children. Each year approximately 220 children are diagnosed with ALL within the Nordic and Baltic countries.
The survival rate has improved significantly during the last decades, but the treatment still fails to cure approximately

1.1 Overview of gemcitabine Gemcitabine (29,29-difluoro 29-deoxycytidine, dFdC) which developed from cytosine arabinoside (Ara-C) is an nucleoside analog used as chemotherapy. It was intended as an antiviral drug in
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To assess the pharmacodynamic effect (PD) of linaclotide (linaclotide acetate) (single daily dose x 7 days, stage I cohort dose= 0.870 mg/day) on cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) levels, based on biopsy samples obtained pre- and post-intervention from the rectum, until an
Hypothesis 1: More studies are focusing now on strategies to preserve tissue mitochondria and subsequently to maintain normal organ functioning [62]. One of these strategies is the use of Carnitine. Carnitine was first described in the early beginnings of the 20th century. In humans, 75% of
Systemic sclerosis (SSc, scleroderma) is a multisystem autoimmune rheumatic disease that causes inflammation, vascular damage and fibrosis. Besides involvement of skin, fibrosis also affects many internal organ involving blood vessel, lungs, heart, kidney etc. Although advances in understanding in
Mycophenolate Mofetil (CellCept) is a prodrug whose active metabolite, mycophenolic acid (MPA), acts as an immune suppressant by inhibiting de novo guanosine synthesis. CellCept is FDA approved to prevent rejection of transplanted organs. It is well tolerated, orally dosed, and has some known
