Effectiveness Study of Nivolumab Compared to Placebo in Prevention of Recurrent Melanoma After Complete Resection of Stage IIB/C Melanoma
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of nivolumab adjuvant immunotherapy compared to placebo in adults and pediatric participants after complete resection of Stage IIB/C melanoma with no evidence of disease (NED) who are at high risk for recurrence.

Effect of Diet on the Immune System in Patients With Stage III-IV Melanoma Receiving Immunotherapy, DIET Study
This phase II trial investigates the possible immune effects of two different diets targeting the gut microbiome in patients with stage III-IV melanoma that has been removed by surgery (resectable), has spread to other places in the body (metastatic), or is unable to be removed by surgery (unresectable), and who are being treated with the immunotherapy drugs pembrolizumab or nivolumab as part of their standard of care. Both diets are whole foods diets that meet the American Cancer Society recommendations for cancer patients, but they will vary in fiber content. The purpose of this trial is to learn about the effects of dietary interventions on the structure and function of the...

Effect of Different Anesthetic Drugs on Electrocorticography (ECOG).
Prospective, double-blind, randomized-controlled study for pediatric cases scheduled for brain tumor excision with the aid of electrocorticography (ECOG). Intraoperative ECOG has been used in an effort to localize the site of epileptogenicity through the demonstration of Interictal Epileptiform Discharges (IED) persistence, frequency, and distribution. During ECOG, pharmaco-activation may be required in order to activate Interictal Epileptiform Abnormalities (IEAs). Frequency of IEAs will be measured for each drug. The effects of anesthetic agents on intraoperative ECOG, as we assume that fentanyl will be superior to ketamine.

Effects of Combined Music Therapy and Occupational Therapy on Motor and Physiological Parameters in Children With Neurological Impairments: A Non-Randomized Controlled Trial
This study aims to explore the effects of an occupational therapy program combined with music therapy elements on children 5-12 years old with neurological disorders including those with neurogenic scoliosis. Occupational therapy programs typically focus on improving motor and cognitive functions to enhance the child's overall participation and daily functioning. Music has been shown to positively affect brain areas involved in emotions, memory, and language, and may reduce stress and increase feelings of happiness. The study will measure changes in biological markers such as blood pressure, oxygen saturation, heart rate, and respiratory rate, as well as improvements in...

Efficacy and Safety of 177Lu-edotreotide PRRT in GEP-NET Patients
The purpose of the study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy (PRRT) with 177Lu-Edotreotide compared to targeted molecular therapy with Everolimus in patients with inoperable, progressive, somatostatin receptor-positive (SSTR+), neuroendocrine tumours of gastroenteric or pancreatic origin (GEP-NET).

Efficacy and Safety of Pembrolizumab in Combination With Lenvatinib in Metastatic Uveal MElanoma Patients (PLUME)
Because we suspect that the benefit of anti-PD-1 in metastatic UM patients could vary according to previous exposure to Tebentafusp (better efficacy of anti-PD-1 after Tebentafusp), the combination of pembrolizumab and lenvatinib will be assessed in two independent cohorts: cohort 1 with Tebentafusp-naive patients, and cohort 2 with patients previously treated by Tebentafusp. The study is a monocentric, phase II trial with a single-arm of treatment in each cohort. Liver MRI and chest-abdomen-pelvis CT will be performed every 9 weeks until progressive disease (PD), followed by a Follow-up visit within 28 days after last treatment intake. Survival status will be registered after...

Efficacy of Tislelizumab and Spartalizumab Across Multiple Cancer-types in Patients with PD1-high MRNA Expressing Tumors
This is an open-label, parallel group, non-randomized, multicenter phase II study to evaluate the efficacy of spartalizumab (cohorts 1 and 2) and tislelizumab (cohort 3) in monotherapy in patients with PD1-high-expressing tumors.

Efficiency of Vaccination with Lysate-loaded Dendritic Cells in Patients with Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma
The primary objective of the study is to determine whether overall survival of newly diagnosed glioblastoma patients treated with lysate-loaded, mature dendritic cell vaccines as add-on to the standard of care consisting of resection, radiotherapy with concomitant temozolomide chemotherapy and subsequent adjuvant temozolomide chemotherapy is superior to the treatment with the standard of care alone.

eFLASH for Skin Lesions of Malignant Melanomas
This prospective single center phase I trials aims to assess feasibility and safety of electron FLASH RT for treatment of melanoma skin metastases. Feasibility will be defined as FLASH delivery with an accuracy of +/-10% for each fraction, safety will be confirmed if a maximum of 2 out of 6 patients develop dose limited toxicity.
