Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), social determinants of health (SDH) and their downstream health effects are the public health crisis of our time. Many chronic diseases are known to originate with, or are exacerbated by, exposure to toxic stress in childhood including learning and cognitive
In advanced CRC, the occurrence of chemorefractory disease poses a major therapeutic challenge for presence of an adequate performance status to potentially receive further treatments. Patients who progress after all approved treatments may be generally considered suitable for new investigational
The investigators performed an open label phase I clinical trial using two commercially available doses of Nilotinib (150 and 300mg capsules) in patients with advanced PDD and DLB. These indications have some overlapping pathologies and clinical symptoms and share common plasma and CSF biomarkers,
This study is a case-control observational study to be done at Clinical pathology department, Assiut University hospital, Assiut University, Egypt. The control population comprised 20 healthy individuals with no liver infection. Patients will be subjected to a full history and thorough physical
Scientific justification:
Gliomas are the most frequent brain tumors. Prognosis is poor. It depends on the histological grade (I to IV), and on the molecular profile, and particularly on the presence of IDH (Isocitrate dehydrogenase) mutation which is associated with a better prognosis. Mutations of
BACKGROUND:
- Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is an aggressive cancer with a poor prognosis. Although highly responsive to chemotherapy initially, SCLC relapses quickly and becomes refractory to treatment within a few months.
- The inability to destroy residual SCLC cells despite initial
Glioblastoma is the most common malignant primary brain tumor and one of the most devastating cancers. The current standard of care for glioblastoma includes maximal safe resection followed by radiotherapy and temozolomide, which results in a median progression-free survival of less than 7 months,
Primary Objectives:
1. Phase I: To determine the optimal timing for combining LITT and pembrolizumab in patients with rGBM:
• To determine the feasibility, safety, tolerability and side effect profiles for combining LITT and pembrolizumab at various time points pre-LITT vs. post-LITT (Phase I).

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common forms of cancer and the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the western world, accounting for the annual death of 215.000 europeans in 2012 and an estimated 50.310 Americans in 2014.
Sporadic CRC develops through the accumulation of
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
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), the most common primary brain tumor in adults is known for its highly invasive and angiogenic profile. Despite advances in different modalities of GBM treatment, the overall prognosis of GBM remains dismal. The current standard of care is Radiation Therapy (RT) at a
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the safety and toxicity profile of combination therapy of prexasertib (LY2606368), fludarabine and cytarabine in patients with relapsed or refractory (first or second salvage) acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (HRMDS).
SECONDARY
Uveal melanoma is a rare disease, accounting for 0.1% of all cancer deaths. This disease arises from melanocytes of the uveal tract and is the most common primary intraocular tumor in adults, with an incidence estimated at 0.6 per 100,000 persons/year in the Western population and seems to have
Vitamin D metabolites are well-recognized to stop cancer cell growth in culture. However, a clear definition of a sufficient level of serum vitamin D (currently measured as 25(OH)D) for disease prevention has been hampered by inconsistent results from both observational studies and randomized
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most frequent cancer worldwide with a prevalence of 1.5 million people / year and is the second cause of death from cancer (650 000 deaths per year) for both genders after lung cancer.
In Greece it is estimated that about 3000 people are infected annually by the
