UTD1 Combined With Capecitabine in Metastatic HER2-negative Breast Cancer Patients With Brain Metastases
This study is a single-arm, multicenter, open-labeled clinical study of UTD1 combined with Capecitabine in metastatic HER2-negative breast cancaner patients with brain metastases. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of UDT1 combined with capecitabine in metastatic HER2-negative breast cancer patients with brain metastases.

Utility of PET-MRI in Surveillance of Paediatric Brain Tumours
This is a pilot project to explore the utility of PET-MRI in the post-treatment surveillance of high-grade gliomas or medulloblastomas in children in our institution.

Uveal Melanoma - Comparative Study
The progress of uveal melanoma is typically monitored with sonography by experienced onco-ophthalmologists. However, there is evidence that twodimensional measurements in color fundus photography match precisely with sonography measurements. This study aims to compare sonography and color fundus photography measurements in order to evaluate the feasibility of monitoring of uveal melanoma with color fundus photography.

Vaccination With Autologous Dendritic Cells Loaded With Autologous Tumour Homogenate in Glioblastoma
Single arm, monocentric trial to assess the safety and the progression-free survival related to the combined treatment of dendritic cell vaccine loaded with autologous tumor homogenate and temozolomide in patients operated for glioblastoma and then treated with standard radiochemotherapy (according to Stupp regimen).

Vacuolar ATPase and Drug Resistance of High Grade Gliomas
GBMs are still considered tumors with few available treatment options that are able only to achieve a temporary local control of the disease. In case of a GBM, tumor recurrence is generally expected within 12 months and it is due to the presence of marginal tumoral cells with pro-oncogenic molecular phenotypes that are resistant to actual chemotherapies and to radiation therapy. Nowadays, surgery still represent the first treatment option in case of suspected GBM and it aims to remove the contrast enhancing lesion seen at the pre-operative brain MRI. In particular, the peripheral layer of the tumor is made of low replicating cellsglioblastoma-associated stromal cell (GASC) that can...

Validation of ICG-99mTc-nanoscan as Hybrid Tracer for Sentinel Node Biopsy
99mTc-nanocolloid, the world wide used hybrid tracer for dynamic sentinel node biopsy, has recently been replaced with 99mTc-nanoscan. The hybrid form (ICG-99mTc-nanoscan) has not yet been validated, to show the similarity between the lymphatic drainage pattern between ICG-99mTc-nanoscan and 99mTc-nanoscan.

Validation of Pre-clinical Nano-Based Analgesics in Cells From Human Dorsal Root Ganglia
This study investigates the pre-clinical nano-based analgesics in cells from human dorsal root ganglia (clusters of neurons). Collecting these neurons may help future research related to safe and effective pain treatment.

Value of Screening MRI Brain in Stage IV Non-small Cell Lung Cancer
Patients with newly diagnosed stage IV non-oncogene addicted NSCLC, who are fit for systemic treatment and don't have any symptoms of brain disease will undergo an MRI of the brain to screen for brain disease.

Variations of Immune Infiltrate and Cell Plasticity Markers in Treated Metastatic Melanoma Patients
COLEMAN is an opened prospective monocentric non-randomized study, initiated by the Hospices Civils de Lyon. Population targeted are patients from 18 years old with stage III or IV metastatic melanoma eligible for a metastatic melanoma treatment administered as part of usual care. The objective is to study the variations of immune infiltrate and cell plasticity before and under immunotherapy or targeted therapy. Two biopsies are done before and one month after the treatment initiation and one blood sample is done after the treatment initiation. 100 patients will be included and followed during 5 years.

Vascular Signature Mapping of Brain Tumor Genotypes
A glioma is a primary brain tumor in adults that is characterized by a highly variable, but overall poor survival. The optimal timing of treatment is in part determined by the expected biological behavior of the tumor. At present the expected biological behavior, determined by the tumor genotype, can only be determined by tissue analysis, which requires brain surgery. Non-invasive and improved diagnostic methods are sought to obtain insight into the molecular profile of the tumor and the expected biological behavior to avoid surgery performed solely for diagnostic purposes. Vascularization is an important aspect of the biological behavior of a primary brain tumor. Tumor...
