Active clinical trials for "Recurrence"

Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of thalidomide in treating patients who have relapsed or refractory low-grade non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Thalidomide may stop the growth of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma by stopping blood flow to the tumor

The reason for doing this study is to determine whether a new method of blood stem cell transplant (also known as bone marrow transplant) is able to treat acute lymphocytic leukemia. Blood stem cells are the "seed cells" necessary to make all blood cells. This new method of transplant uses a combination of low dose radiation and chemotherapy that may be less toxic and cause less harm than a conventional transplant. This lower dose transplant is called a "nonmyeloablative transplant". Researchers want to see if using less radiation and less chemotherapy combined with new immune suppressing drugs after the transplant will help a stem cell transplant to work. Researchers hope that this treatment will cure acute lymphocytic leukemia with fewer side effects. Researchers are hoping to see a mixture of recipient and donor blood cells after transplant. This mixture of donor and recipient blood cells is called "mixed chimerism". Researchers hope that donor cells will attack and eliminate the leukemia. This is called the "graft-versus-leukemia" effect. In addition, after the transplant, white blood cells from the donor may be given to enhance or "boost" the graft-versus-leukemia effect, and hopefully remove all remaining cancer cells. This study is being done because at the present time blood stem cell transplantation (or bone marrow transplantation) is the only known curative therapy for acute lymphocytic leukemia. Because of age or underlying health status acute lymphocytic leukemia patients have a higher likelihood of experiencing severe harm from a conventional blood stem cell transplant. Researchers are doing this study to see if this new nonmyeloablative method of low dose radiation and low dose chemotherapy given before transplant and immune suppressive drugs after transplant will help make the transplant safer and also cure acute lymphocytic leukemia

Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of gefitinib in treating patients who have persistent or recurrent endometrial cancer. Biological therapies such as gefitinib may interfere with the growth of tumor cells and slow the growth of endometrial cancer.

This is a single-arm, prospective, non-interventional, real-world study to observe and evaluate the efficacy and safety of selinexor in combination with daratumumab and dexamethasone in patients with multiple myeloma at first relapse.

This clinical trial is a prospective study of radiosurgery treatment for progressive GBM to test 1)the efficacy of radiosurgery for recurrent/progressive GBM compared to chemotherapy , and 2) the role of diffusion-weighted image (DWI) to predict the early tumor progression and treatment response.

This study aims to compare the recurrence rates of Esomeprazole and Lansoprazole in triple combination therapy to eradicate H.pylori infection in children. The participants were divided into two groups, those who received Esomeprazole and those who received Lansoprazole

This project is focusing on who have locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and have undergone neoadjuvant and adjuvant therapy, followed by surgical resection. The exclusive MRD (Minimal residual disease) probe consists of an exclusive "molecular label" formulated according to the individual genome mutation profile and 21 critical tumor driver genes. By continuously monitoring each patient's ctDNA dynamics, changes in ctDNA concentration or ctDNA-MRD negative/positive results will serve as the primary indicators to assess the efficacy and prognosis of patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

Management of indirect hernial sac in inguinal hernia repairs has long been a subject of debate among general surgeons. Although hernial sac high ligation (HL) is a time-honored concept in groin hernia surgery, non-ligation/invagination is gaining more popularity. The aim of this study is to compare the effects of hernia sac ligation and invagination in patients with Lichtenstein mesh hernioplasty (LMH). Also, investigators aimed to investigate the possible association between the hernial defect size and postoperative early pain in both groups.

Objective: "Decentering" is defined as the ability to observe one's thoughts and feelings as temporary, objective events in the mind, and is increasingly regarded as a candidate mechanism in mindfulness-based interventions. The current study sought to examine the role of decentering, and other related variables, in the efficacy of Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) as compared to two active comparison conditions. Method: Formerly depressed individuals (N = 227), randomly assigned to MBCT (n = 74), relaxation group therapy (RGT; n = 77) or treatment-as-usual (TAU; n = 76), completed self-report measures of decentering and symptoms of depression at pre-, mid-, and post-treatment, and relapse was assessed at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months, post-treatment.

The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the influence of thyroxine supplementation on pregnancy outcomes in women with varying levels of Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH), who have experienced recurrent pregnancy loss in the first trimester. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does thyroxine treatment improve pregnancy outcomes in women with TSH levels between 2.5 mU/L and 4 mU/L? Is the effect of thyroxine treatment different in women with TSH levels higher than 4 mU/L? Participants will be grouped based on their TSH levels, into two groups - those with TSH levels between 2.5 mU/L and 4 mU/L, and those with TSH levels higher than 4 mU/L. They will then be given thyroxine treatment. Researchers will compare these two groups to see if the pregnancy outcomes differ based on the different TSH levels and thyroxine treatment.
