Radiotherapy; Complications

This is a phase II randomized trial, where patients with histologically proven squamous cell carcinoma of oropharynx that have primary tumor (T3 - T4) in place, treated with curative intent chemoradiation, will be randomized to systematic mid-treatment MRI-based radiotherapy adaptation vs. standard of care. The primary objective is to compare patient-rated dysphagia (as assessed by the MD Anderson Dysphagia Inventory composite score at 6 months post-treatment in patients undergoing routine mid-treatment MR-guided radiotherapy adaptation vs. in patients receiving the current standard of care.

Locally advanced basal cell carcinoma (BCC) are large BCCs or BCCs located in areas subject to functional and aesthetic risk following surgery or radiotherapy. In these particular situations, surgery and radiotherapy are sometimes not appropriate, and Sonic Hedgehog inhibitors (SHHi) (Vismodegib and Sonidegib) can be proposed. SHHi are effective treatments in laBCC but most CR patients discontinue treatment because of tolerability. Approximately 65% of the population experience a relapse after discontinuation. A few cases of patients treated concomitantly by radiotherapy and vismodegib have been reported in the literature, suggesting that combining vismodegib and concomitant radiotherapy results in an improved overall response compared to a single modality treatment. There is no study evaluating a "consolidation radiotherapy" after complete response to SHHi. We carry out a prospective multicenter study in order to evaluate consolidation radiotherapy in patients with laBCC after achieving complete response with SHHi, with the hypothesis of reducing recurrence after discontinuation of SHHi.

The aim of this randomized study is to investigate local tumor control,survival outcomes and complications on patients of liver metastasis in small cell lung cancer.

The goal of this observational study is to learn about the long-term effects of HDR Brachytherapy in men with isolated local relapses after radical prostatectomy. The main question it aims to answer is: Does HDR Brachytherapy increase control rates and decreases complications compared with conventional External Irradiation? Participants will be asked to receive HDR brachytherapy as part of their regular medical care for isolated local relapses after radical prostatectomy

The primary objective of the study is to describe the tolerance profile of radiation treatments performed during systemic treatment with new drugs (molecular targeted therapies, immunotherapy, others).

Analysis of outcomes and adverse events of patients undergoing radiation therapy. Quality control using data base of patient records 2000-2025

This is an observational mono-institutional study. Patients with gynecologic tumors treated with advanced radiotherapy- Image Guided Radiotherapy (IGRT), Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT), Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT)- will be included and toxicity and outcomes analyzed.

Introduction: Oral candidiasis is an infectious disease caused by the growth of Candida colonies and their penetration into oral tissues when physical barriers and host defenses are weakened. It constitutes one of the most common pathologies within the field covered by Dentistry. Candida infections are found in at least 80% of AIDS patients and in a third of HIV infection cases. Systemic diseases such as diabetes and a wide pharmacological arsenal to which the general population is subjected, are other causes of the increase in the prevalence of this disease. In addition, the high prevalence of oral sequelae (hyposialia) in the population over 65 years of age, due to the specific characteristics of this age group, such as multiple pathologies and drug use, explains the presence of this disease in this segment. of the population One of the great difficulties for the study of this disease is the diversity of predisposing factors, which do nothing but throw greater confusion into the results of the different works. Objective: To evaluate the reduction/suppression of signs and symptoms of oral candidiasis in patients treated with head and neck RT, users of Vacucis or Placebo. Material and method: Patients will receive information regarding the trial and, if they meet the inclusion criteria and agree to participate in it, they will sign the informed consent. All patients will be informed following the usual care practice of the characteristics of their candidiasis infection as well as the possibilities and alternatives of treatment and their respective efficacy. A descriptive analysis of the sample in terms of prevalence will be carried out. Categorical variables will be described as frequency and percentage and continuous variables as mean and standard deviation or median and interquartile range depending on their adjustment to normality, which will be calculated with the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. To study the effect of the vaccine on the evolution of candidiasis, the Chi-square test, Student's t test or the non-parametric Mann-Whitney test will be used. The association of prevalence with CFU in both groups will be analyzed using the ANOVA test. Those values of p \< 0.05 will be considered significant.

Rationale: Proton beam therapy has recently become available for the treatment of patients with WHO grade 2 and 3 IDH mutated (IDHmt) glioma in the Netherlands. The dose distributions associated with proton therapy have substantially reduced the volume of the normal brain irradiated with low and intermediate radiotherapy doses. Whether this impacts rates of progressive disease or safety issues and how this compares with a similar population treated with photon therapy is currently unknown. Objective: To investigate short term outcomes after proton and photon radiotherapy for grade 2 and 3 IDHmt glioma.

The aim of the study is to establish a multi-center, retrospective database for patients with intramedullary spinal cord metastases (ISCM) and analyse the functional outcome in surgically treated ISCM patients. The hypothesis is that the surgical treatment of selected ISCM patients does not lead to persistent morbidity and does not increase mortality, compared to patients that are treated non-operatively. Secondary objectives are to assess pre- to postoperative neurological deficits, ambulatory status, and overall survival of surgically treated ISCM patients. The investigators intend to include a control cohort of patients with ISCM from participating centers, who underwent non-surgical oncological treatment (radiotherapy with or without chemotherapy). This control cohort of patients will be used to match patients with and without surgical treatment. Primary endpoint (analysed in surgically treated ISCM patients): Functional outcome at 90 days after treatment initiation, measured by the modified McCormick Scale. This is a score for grading of neurological function in spinal cord conditions. The McCormick scale ranges from Grade I (neurologically intact) to grade V (paraplegic or quadriplegic). The McCormick scale is suitable for our retrospective study because of its good reproducibility and comparability. Secondary endpoints (analysed in surgically treated ISCM patients and analysed in matched patients with and without surgical treatment): * Functional outcome by the McCormick scale and the modified Japanese Orthopaedic Association scale (mJOA) at 6 and 12 months. This is a score evaluating motor function of upper and lower extremities, sensory function of upper extremities and sphincter function / voidance. The mJOA ranges from 0 - 18 points, with higher score values representing better functional outcome. The minimum clinically important difference of the mJOA is 1-2 points, and scores lower than 14 indicate moderate myelopathy, scores lower than 11 indicate severe myelopathy. * Ambulatory status and continence at 90 days, 6 \& 12 months (determined by mJOA subscores) * Neurological outcome, measured by American Spinal Cord Injury Association (ASIA) * Impairment Scale at 90 days, 6 and 12 months * Rate \& type of complications at 90 days after treatment according to The Novel Therapy * Disability-Neurology Grade (TDN grade)16 * Overall survival (in days)

Radiation therapy is a crucial part in the comprehensive treatment of breast cancer. In recent years, emerging systemic treatment regimens such as HER 2 inhibitors, CDK 4/6 inhibitors, PARP inhibitors, capecitabine and PD1 inhibitors have greatly improved the prognosis of breast cancer and has become the standard treatment for specific populations. A considerable number of patients require both radiotherapy and maintenance systemic therapy. However, it is not clear whether systemic therapy should be synchronized or suspended in radiotherapy，despite that previous basic research shows that some molecular drug therapy and radiotherapy has a clear synergy mechanism. There is an agent need for a definite evidence to evaluate the safety of synchronous treatment, to support clinical diagnosis and treatment and the next step of comprehensive treatment. The implementation of the new radiotherapy technology represented by IMRT takes into account the prescription dose homogenization and the minimization of normal tissue dosage, which provides a certain basis for the combination therapy. Based on the above conditions, this study intends to enroll patients between 18 and 70 years old with chest wall / breast ± lymphatic drainage area and requiring capecitabine, CDK 4/ 6 inhibitor, HER2 targeted therapy or immunotherapy. Radiation and novel systemic therapies would be delivered concurrently. The study aimed at evaluating the safety of combined treatments.

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of neoadjuvant radiochemotherapy in the surgical resection of glioblastoma (GBM). The main questions it aims to answer are: * What is the safety profile of neoadjuvant radiochemotherapy in terms of neurological deficit, radionecrosis, edema, headache, wound dehiscence, infection, and cerebrospinal fluid fistula? * What is the efficacy of neoadjuvant radiochemotherapy in terms of progression-free survival, overall survival, cognitive function, and quality of life? Participants will undergo the following tasks and treatments: * Stereotactic biopsy and diagnosis confirmation. * Conformal hypofractionated stereotactic radiotherapy with concurrent temozolomide. * Supramarginal resection guided by 5-ALA under intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring. * Maintenance temozolomide administration for 6 months. Researchers will compare the group receiving neoadjuvant radiochemotherapy to the control group following the standard Stupp protocol to assess safety and efficacy outcomes.

Subjects: patients with postoperative local recurrent or metastatic differentiated thyroid cancer . Experimental group: Recombinant human thyroid stimulating hormone injection: 0.9mg/1.0mL/piece; intramuscular injection; once a day for two consecutive days. Control group: Thyroid hormone withdraw for 4-6 weeks. The two groups were treated with radioiodine 131I after plasma thyroid stimulating hormone elevated (\>30mU/L). The efficacy and adverse reactions were observed.

Randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blinded, parallel group clinical trial to investigate if 6 months of oral lithium tablets (S-lithium 0,5-1,0 mmol/l) will prevent cognitive decline after brain radiotherapy in pediatric brain tumor survivors. Primary outcome measure is Processing Speed Index (PSI) 2 years after start of study treatment.

In the IMRT era, patients with stage II-III (AJCC8th) nasopharyngeal carcinoma achieve high local control. However, survivors are increasingly experiencing late radiation-induced toxicities. A previous study found that reducing the radiation dose to the primary site to 60Gy for patients who achieved partial or complete response to induction chemotherapy resulted in a lower rate of late toxicities and an inferior local control rate. The investigators aim to reduce the radiation dose to the primary site for patients after immunochemotherapy, given the potential of neoadjuvant chemotherapy and immunotherapy to increase response rates and long-term survival. The protocol includes participants with stage II-III (AJCC8th), except T2N0M0, to receive three courses of neoadjuvant gemcitabine plus cisplatin and Toripalimab. If the primary tumour regresses by over 75%, de-escalated radiotherapy with 60Gy will be administered, and participants will receive two cycles of cisplatin and three cycles of Toripalimab during the radiotherapy course. Otherwise, participants will receive conventional radiotherapy and concurrent chemotherapy with cisplatin for two cycles as usual. The aim of this study is to investigate the 3-year local control rate and toxicities of de-escalated radiotherapy.

This randomized Phase III study aims to show major complication rate of hypofractionation radiation therapy is not inferior, compared to conventional fractionation radiation therapy in breast cancer patients undergoing mastectomy and reconstruction surgery.

Locally advanced breast cancer has high-risk local regional recurrence after surgery. Radiotherapy could reduce the local regional recurrence and improve disease free survival and overall survival. Regional lymph node irradiation is the important part of breast cancer radiotherapy. However, there are some controversies about regional lymph node delineation, especially the supraclavicular irradiation volume. Many studies had confirmed that posterolateral region of the supraclavicular fossa (also named Posterior neck lymph node) had a high risk involvement based on the mapping of recurrence nodes. This randomized phase III trial compares medial supraclavicular lymph node irradiation with entire supraclavicular lymph node irradiation in patients with pathologically positive axillary lymph node and high risk of recurrence after mastectomy or breast conservative surgery. It is not yet known if radiation works better with entire supraclavicular fossa than medial supraclavicular fossa.
