AI-Based Ultrasound Prediction Model for Intracranial Pressure and Prognosis in Lung Cancer Patients With Leptomeningeal Metastasis: A Dual-Center Study
This study focuses on developing an innovative, artificial intelligence-based model using optic nerve sheath ultrasound videos to predict intracranial pressure in lung cancer patients with leptomeningeal metastasis. The study also aims to create a multimodal clinical prognosis model that can help improve patient outcomes. By analyzing ultrasound data from patients at two major medical centres, the research seeks to provide more accurate and early predictions of complications related to elevated intracranial pressure, ultimately improving treatment and management strategies for these patients.

Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation for 4/M Neuroblastoma
Neuroblastoma (NB) is the most common extracranial solid tumor of embryonal origin in children. According to the International Neuroblastoma Risk Group (INRG) staging criteria and the International Neuroblastoma Staging System (INSS) ,NB preoperative staging is divided into L1, L2, M and Ms stages, the postoperative staging is divided into 1 to 4 stages and 4s stage. Among them, 4/M stage is of the highest degree of malignancy and the worst prognosis. Despite the aggressive combination therapy, the 5-year survival rate (OS) is still less than 15%, and the 2-year relapse rate is 80%. Currently, no effective treatment is accessible for refractory/relapsed stage 4/M NB after...

Alpha/Beta T and B Cell Depletion With Zoledronic Acid for Solid Tumors
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation can cure patients with blood cancer and other underlying diseases. αβ-T cell and B cell depletion has been introduced to decrease GVHD and PTLD and has demonstrated effectiveness for hematologic malignancies and non-malignant diseases additionally increasing the donor pool as to allow for haploidentical transplant to safely occur. While solid tumors can be highly chemotherapy sensitive, many remain resistant and require multimodalities of treatment. Immunotherapy has been developed to harness the immune system in fighting solid tumors, though not all have targeted effects. Some solid tumors are treated with autologous transplants; however,...

A Multicenter Study to Assess the Feasibility of 5-Aminolevulinic Acid (5-ALA) in Pediatric Brain Tumor Patients
This clinical trial focuses on pediatric patients aged 2 up to 18 years of age with a new or recurrent pediatric brain tumor, suspected to be either a high-grade or low-grade glioma, and scheduled for surgical removal. 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) is FDA-approved for improving brain tumor visualization in adults during surgery through fluorescence, enabling more complete removal of the tumor. This study aims to evaluate the feasibility of administering 5-ALA to pediatric brain tumor patients and to assess the quality of tumor fluorescence during surgery in this patient population. For the clinical trial, the patient will orally ingest 5-ALA 6 to 12 hours before brain surgery....

A Multicentre, Retrospective-prospective Real-world Study: to Evaluate the Effectiveness and Safety of Vorasidenib in Patients With Isocitrate Dehydrogenase IDH1/2 Mutant Grade 2 Astrocytoma or Oligodendroglioma (VICTORIA Study)
The goal of this Study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Vorasidenib in Patients with Isocitrate dehydrogenase IDH1/2 mutant Grade 2 astrocytoma or oligodendroglioma, primary purposeis to evaluate the efficectiveness of Vorasidenib in glioma patients treated in routine clinical practice in In China, patients aged 12 and above with grade II or higher astrocytoma or oligodendroglioma with IDH1 or IDH2 mutations. The main question it aims to answer is: if this trend is consistent with the efficacy observed in the INDIGO study, and there is not any new safety signal compared to previous research data? Researchers will compare to no treatment. Participants is not...

Amyloid Proteins From Medullary Thyroid Cancer and Laryngeal Amyloidosis
Using excess tumour samples that contain amyoid, from patients with Medullary Thyroid Cancer, we aim to determine the structures of ex vivo amyloid fibrils from human tumour tissue samples and compare them with that of existing stock of in vitro formed amyloid fibrils. This will permit the analysis of the effects of gene mutation and post-translational modification on the development of amyloid from a disease state. Amyloid is known to accumulate in the brain tissue of patients with neuro-degenerative conditions such as Alzheimer's disease and Dementia. Therefore solving the structure of amyloid fibrils may aid the development of future treatments for these conditions.

A New Approach in Intensive Care Unit Consciousness Assessment: FIVE Score
1. The primary aim of this study is to investigate the correlation between the length of ICU stay and a newly developed FIVE score in neuro-intensive care patients. 2. The secondary objectives are to evaluate the impact of the FIVE score on hospital length of stay, Modified Rankin Scale, and mortality, as well as to determine the correlation between the GCS, FOUR, and FIVE scores

An Investigational Scan (18F-DOPA PET/CT) for Improving the Clinical Management of Brain Tumors
This phase II trial studies how well the addition of 18F-DOPA (amino acid) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) to standard of care (SOC) imaging can improve the clinical management of patients with brain tumors in over 50% of cases. PET is an imaging test that helps to measure the information about functions of tissues and organs within the body. A PET scan uses a radioactive drug (radiotracer) to show this activity. CT scan uses X-rays to create images of the bones and internal organs within the body. Combining a PET scan with a CT scan can help make the images easier to interpret. PET/CT scans are hybrid scanners that combine both of the two modalities...
