To define indications for recently developed, but more expensive, self-expanding metal stents (SEMS) versus cheaper plastic stents in patients with primary or recurrent inoperable malignant extrahepatic common bile duct (CBD) obstruction, based on…
The main objective of this study is to determine whether tumor concentrations of kinase inhibitors at pharmacological active doses can be predicted from PET studies using tracer amounts (microdosing) of corresponding radiolabeled kinase inhibitors.…
To determine the influence of OATP1B inhibition, through rifampicin exposure, on the metabolism and plasma pharmacokinetics of sorafenib and its metabolites.
The purpose of this study is to find out if patients with locally advanced/metastatic Radioactive Iodine-refractory (RAI) thyroid cancer (papillary, follicular or Hurthle cell carcinoma), will benefit from sorafenib treatment compared to patients…
The primary aim of the proposed study is to assess whether stenting for symptomatic vertebral artery stenosis >= 50% is feasible and safe. A secondary aim is to assess the rate of new vascular events in the territory of the vertebrobasilar…
Treatment strategy in early HCC aims at the local removal of the tumor and represents a potentially curative treatment option (resection, liver transplantation, PEI, RFA, BT). Patients in intermediate and advanced stage of HCC receive treatment with…
The objective for the study is to establish a proof of concept for the use of self-expandable stenting in subacute to chronic total occlusions and evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the STENTYS Coronary Stent System in the treatment of these…
* To compare TKI258 vs. sorafenib with respect to progression-free survival (PFS) determined by central radiology assessment in patients with metastatic renal cell cancer (mRCC) after failure of anti-angiogenic (VEGF-targeted and mTOR inhibitor)…
To assess the efficacy of combined treatment with sorafenib and metformin.
The objective of this phase III study is to compare the efficacy and safety of sorafenib monotherapy plus best supportive care (BSC) versus placebo plus BSC for the treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory advanced predominantly non…
The main objective of this pilot study is to determine the biological impact of treatment with targeted agents at the systemic and local tissue level in relation to toxicity.
The aim of this study is to determine safety, patency of placement and long term symptom-free outcome of a covered self expandable metal stent in patients with a benign CBD stricture.
The main objective of this pilot study is to determine intratumoral concentrations of kinase inhibitors upon 2 weeks of treatment in tumor tissue of patients.
To determine the relation between tumor tissue phosphoproteomic profiles and progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with advanced RCC
To determine the safety and effectiveness of Boston Scientific*s Everolimus-eluting coronary stent system (PROMUS Element*) for coronary revascularization in an unrestricted population compared to the Xience* Prime control.
The primary objective of this study is to assess the overall survival (OS) of oral linifanib given as monotherapy daily (QD) compared to sorafenib given twice daily (BID) per standard of care in subjects with advanced or metastatic HCC. The…
To select targeted treatment based on ex vivo kinase activity inhibition profiles to targeted agents of tumor tissue from patients with advanced cancer for whom no standard treatment is available.
The primary objective is to assess the safety and operation of the Stentys coronary stent system in patients with acute myocardial infarction compared with a balloon-expanding stent. These are the effect and safety in the short term (the procedure…
The aim of this study is to determine safety, patency of placement and long term symptom-free outcome of a covered self expandable metal stent in patients with a benign CBD stricture.
Efficacy of sorafenib in NSCLC with a K-RAS mutation as determined by the Disease Control Rate at 6 weeks
