TORPEdO: A phase III trial of intensity-modulated proton beam therapy versus intensity-modulated radiotherapy for multi-toxicity reduction in oropharyngeal cancer.
(ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2022-11-01)
•There is a lack of prospective level I evidence for the use of PBT for most adult cancers including oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC).•TORPEdO is the UK's first PBT clinical trial and aims to determine the ...
Practical guidance for running late-phase platform protocols for clinical trials: lessons from experienced UK clinical trials units.
(BMC, 2022-09-06)
BACKGROUND: Late-phase platform protocols (including basket, umbrella, multi-arm multi-stage (MAMS), and master protocols) are generally agreed to be more efficient than traditional two-arm clinical trial designs but are ...
Joint models for dynamic prediction in localised prostate cancer: a literature review.
(BMC, 2022-09-19)
BACKGROUND: Prostate cancer is a very prevalent disease in men. Patients are monitored regularly during and after treatment with repeated assessment of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels. Prognosis of localised prostate ...
VinCaP: a phase II trial of vinflunine in locally advanced and metastatic squamous carcinoma of the penis.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2022-01-01)
BACKGROUND: We investigated the first-line activity of vinflunine in patients with penis cancer. Cisplatin-based combinations are commonly used, but survival is not prolonged; many patients are unfit for such treatment or ...
A Road Map for Designing Phase I Clinical Trials of Radiotherapy-Novel Agent Combinations.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2022-09-02)
Radiotherapy has proven efficacy in a wide range of cancers. There is growing interest in evaluating radiotherapy-novel agent combinations and a drive to initiate this earlier in the clinical development of the novel agent, ...
A Phase I Trial of CT900, a Novel α-Folate Receptor-Mediated Thymidylate Synthase Inhibitor, in Patients with Solid Tumors with Expansion Cohorts in Patients with High-Grade Serous Ovarian Cancer.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2022-11-01)
PURPOSE: CT900 is a novel small molecule thymidylate synthase inhibitor that binds to α-folate receptor (α-FR) and thus is selectively taken up by α-FR-overexpressing tumors. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A 3+3 dose escalation ...
Adaptive magnetic resonance image guided radiation for intact localized prostate cancer how to optimally test a rapidly emerging technology.
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2022-09-05)
INTRODUCTION: Prostate cancer is a common malignancy for which radiation therapy (RT) provides an excellent management option with high rates of control and low toxicity. Historically RT has been given with CT based image ...
Photodynamic versus white-light-guided resection of first-diagnosis non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer: PHOTO RCT.
(NIHR JOURNALS LIBRARY, 2022-10-01)
BACKGROUND: Around 7500 people are diagnosed with non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer in the UK annually. Recurrence following transurethral resection of bladder tumour is common, and the intensive monitoring schedule ...
