The term "mucositis" was introduced to describe inflammation of the oral mucosa induced by radiotherapy, chemotherapy and bone marrow transplantation. At present, oral mucositis is considered to be the most serious non-hematological complication of cancer treatment.
Numerous predisposing factors
This is a multicenter, single-arm, open-label dose-finding phase I/II study to determine the MTD and RP2D of oral foritinib succinate monotherapy in patients with advanced ALK-positive malignant solid tumor, and to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and PK characteristics of SAF-189s in patients
Background:
- Rare tumors are defined as fewer than 150 incident cases per one million per year. Consequently, only 11 tumor types are common in U.S. adults (prostate, breast, lung/bronchus, colon, uterus, bladder, melanoma, rectum, ovary, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, and kidney/renal pelvis neoplasms) and
The principal objective of this study is the metabolic characterization of pediatric solid tumors, with a particular focus on neuroblastoma (NBL) and fusion positive sarcoma (FPS), which will allow the detection of tumor specific metabolic alterations that can be exploited with the aim of developing
This oncology study will be a phase 2 study for patients with advanced or metastatic GIST. This study will determine overall response rate at 6 months for TMZ therapy in patients with SDH-mutant/deficient GIST.
Treatment will continue for 6 months (with option to continue if benefiting treatment) or
There are around 150,000 incidents of stroke every year in the UK alone. By the age of 75, 1 in 5 women and 1 in 6 men will have had a stroke; 26% of which will have occurred before the age of 65. Moreover, over half of all stroke survivors are left with a disability and 41% of these are discharged
The study will recruit in-hospital surgical patients with obstructive jaundice caused by malignancies of pancreatic and hepatobiliary zone.
The study consists of the following periods:
- Screening - preliminary examination of patients (duration up to 3 days).
- Period of therapy (including surgery
The study will be performed in in-hospital patients with obstructive jaundice cause by conditions other than tumor (predominantly by cholelithiasis; ICD-10 codes K80 and K83.1). The patients will be screened in the 15 days preceeding the appointed drainage surgery. The treatment will be started in
Tumor heterogeneity leads to a significant difference in the rate of response to drugs in patients with the same pathological type. According to the information, the current initial effective rate of domestic and foreign chemotherapeutic single drug is no more than 30%, even if treated with repeated
Background:
- Pheochromocytomas/paragangliomas (PHEOs/PGLs) are rare tumors arising from neural crest tissue that can develop in sympathetic and parasympathetic paraganglia throughout the body. Those arising in the adrenal gland are called PHEOs while those located extraadrenally are called PGLs.

Background
- Loss of activity of the Krebs cycle components succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) complex or fumarate hydratase (FH), has been identified as a mechanism of tumorigenesis in subsets of gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST), pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma (PHEO/PGL), and renal cell
Endoscopic submucosal dissection as the fastest growing endoscopic treatment technology in the past decade has been widely used in the treatment of early esophageal cancer and gastric cancer without local lymph node metastasis. The main complications of ESD treatment of early esophageal cancer are
Background:
- An estimated 1-3% of gastric cancer cases occur within a familial background as part of an inherited cancer syndrome
- Hereditary Diffuse Gastric Cancer (HDGC) is the most frequent form of familial gastric cancer and has been linked to a germline mutation in the CDH1 gene
- Gastric
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine if the administration of post-Induction age-adjusted intrathecal triple therapy (ITT) on a Modified Berlin-Frankfurt-Munster (MBFM) interim maintenance high-dose methotrexate (IMHDM) backbone will improve 5-year disease-free survival (DFS) of children with
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
I. To evaluate the tolerability of azacitidine in addition to Interfant-06 standard chemotherapy in infants with newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) with KMT2A gene rearrangement (KMT2A-R).
SECONDARY OBJECTIVE:
I. To evaluate the biologic activity of azacitidine by
