Risk Factors for Neuroendocrine Neoplasms
Recent studies show an increase in neuroendocrine neoplasms, especially for the digestive tract. Previous studies suggest various risk factors that were observed for various tumor sites, e.g. a family history of cancer, tobacco and alcohol consumption as well as metabolic disorders including diabetes and obesity. A risk factor that has been little studied to date is depressive disorders, which could increase the risk of neuroendocrine neoplasms either independently or through associated risk behaviors and/or antidepressant medication. The aim of this study is to identify risk factors for neuroendocrine neoplasms based on a ...

Role of ChatGPT in Vestibular Schwannoma Management
Previous studies have demonstrated that patients frequently undergo significant decision conflict regarding major medical decisions in otolaryngology. There lack validated tools available for decision support for patients. While limited evidence has demonstrated that clinical decision support tools can alleviate decision conflict for patients with diagnosis in otolaryngology, conversational language models were not employed in these studies and may provide additional benefit in this context. This study seeks to evaluate the efficacy of using ChatGPT, a conversational language model with basic clinical knowledge, in alleviating ...

Role of the Tumor Microenvironment in Aggressive Meningiomas
Meningiomas are the most common primary tumors of the central nervous system in adults. High-grade forms have a high frequency of neurofibromatosis 2 (NF2) mutations and represent 25% of meningiomas, with multiple recurrences associated with morbidity and reduced survival without medical options, including immunotherapy. The meninges play a key role in neuro-immune communication through the diversity of their immune cells and the presence of meningeal lymphatic vessels (MLV). Recent data, including from our team, shows frequent infiltration of lymphocytes and myeloid cells specific to benign meningiomas. Our hypothesis is that the...

Ropidoxuridine as a Radiosensitizer in Newly Diagnosed IDH-Wildtype Glioblastoma With Unmethylated MGMT Promoter
This is a randomized, open-label, phase 2 study evaluating the safety and efficacy of oral ropidoxuridine as a radiation-sensitizing agent in patients with newly diagnosed wild-type isocitrate dehydrogenase glioblastoma with an unmethylated O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase promoter, undergoing standard 60 Gy radiotherapy.

Rurality Adapted Physical Activity Sport Health
Physical activity (PA) has been an integral part of non-drug therapy since the early 2010s. This supportive care is likely to reduce fatigue and improve the quality of life of patients during and after the cancer treatment phase. Physical activity also has a protective effect in terms of tertiary prevention by reducing the risk of recurrence of certain cancers (breast, colon, prostate) by around 40 to 50% and by reducing overall mortality. Adapted physical activity (APA) is offered at the Institut de Cancérologie de l'Ouest (ICO) in Angers, but there are obstacles particularly linked to the geographical distance of the ...

Sacituzumab Govitecan and Bevacizumab for NSCLC Brain Metastases
This study will evaluate whether the combination of sacituzumab govitecan (SG) and bevacizumab will result in shrinkage of brain metastases from patients with non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), with disease progression on chemotherapy and immunotherapy.

Sacituzumab Govitecan and Intrathecal Chemotherapy for Treating Leptomeningeal Metastases From Her2-negative Breast Cancer
Leptomeningeal metastases is a specific pattern of central involvement in which tumor cells invade and proliferate in the subarachnoid space, and is a lethal complication of malignant tumors. Leptomeningeal metastases from Her2-negative breast cancer is still tricky to treat at present, with an overall median survival of only 3-6 months, even after aggressive treatment. This study is an open, uncontrolled phase I/II clinical study to observe the safety, feasibility, and potential efficacy of Sacituzumab Govitecan combined with pemetrexed intrathecal chemotherapy in the treatment of patients with Her2-negative breast cancer ...

Sacituzumab Govitecan and Zimberelimab w/SRS in the Management of Metastatic Triple Negative Breast Cancer With Brain Metastases
This is a Phase I/II Study to determine the safety and efficacy of Sacituzumab Govitecan and Zimberelimab with stereotactic radiation (SRS) in participants with metastatic triple negative breast cancer with brain metastases, compared to treatment with Sacituzumab Govitecan alone.
