Proton Radiotherapy for Primary Central Nervous System Tumours in Adults
Open label, multi-centre prospective study. Adult patients with primary central nervous system tumours fulfilling the inclusion criteria according to the study protocol. The study consists of 2 sequential cohorts evaluated consecutively for the feasibility, safety and toxicity, as well as long-term survival data, when using spot scanning proton beam therapy.

Proton Therapy Research Infrastructure- ProTRAIT- Neuro-oncology
The first proton therapy treatments in the Netherlands have taken place in 2018. Due to the physical properties of protons, proton therapy has tremendous potential to reduce the radiation dose to the healthy, tumour-surrounding tissues. In turn, this leads to less radiation-induced complications, and a decrease in the formation of secondary tumours. The Netherlands has spearheaded the development of the model-based approach (MBA) for the selection of patients for proton therapy when applied to prevent radiation-induced complications. In MBA, a pre-treatment in-silico planning study is done, comparing proton and photon treatment plans...

PSMA in Gastrointestinal Tumors (GIPSMA, Focusing on Neuroendocrine Neoplasms)
The theranostic principle is based on the use of radiolabeled compounds which can be applied for diagnostic molecular imaging and targeted delivery of radiation to the tumor. Gastrointestinal tumors (GIT), including gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP-NEN) also express a phenotypic biomarker called prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA), thereby rendering it a potential diagnostic (through positron emission tomography (PET) scan imaging) and therapeutic target for radioligand therapy. Aim is to evaluate whether PSMA-directed in-vivo imaging can be also applied to GEP-NEN patients to determine if i) biopsy-derived...

Psychoeducation for Uveal Melanoma
This clinical trial evaluates a video-based psychoeducational intervention for patients with uveal melanoma. Uveal melanoma (UM) is a rare intraocular cancer. UM patients face an uncertain course of survivorship in terms of their visual acuity, treatment-related side effects, and risk for eventual metastasis of the cancer. Learning about patients' thoughts and reactions to informational resources may better support patients during ocular melanoma survivorship.

PTCs-based Precision Treatment Strategy on Recurrent High-grade Gliomas
This trial is an open-label, single-arm, phase 0/1 study of high-grade glioma that aims to evaluate the feasibility, preliminary efficacy and safety of the precision treatment strategy.

Pyrotinib Combined With Capecitabine and Bevacizumab for Patients With HER2 Positive Breast Cancer and Brain Metastases
This study intends to conduct a small, prospective, single-center clinical study to explore and evaluate the efficacy and safety of pyrrotinib combined with capecitabine and bevacizumab in HER2-positive advanced breast cancer with brain metastases.The overall objective is to provide a new drug regimen for HER2 positive breast cancer patients with brain metastases by balancing survival benefits and patient quality of life.

Quadruple Immunotherapy for Neuroblastoma
This is a single-arm clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of quadruple immunotherapy with natural killer (NK) cells, anti-GD2 antibody, cytokines (interleukin-2 (IL-2) and granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF)) and retinoid X receptor gamma (RXRg) agonist spironolactone for paediatric patients with relapsed or refractory neuroblastoma.

Quality of Life, Lifestyle, and Psychosocial Factors in Patients With Melanoma
This study investigates the extent to which lifestyle factors including mental health, social support, diet, and exercise are associated with quality of life and melanoma patient outcomes. Knowledge gained from this study may be used to guide the design of prospective clinical trials of lifestyle interventions to improve the outcomes of melanoma patients and assist doctors in counseling their patients.
