Implementing a Randomized Control Trial to Test the Expanded Web-based Decision Aid

The aim of the study is to test the effect of tDCS stimulation on upper and lower limb function in neurological patients and to reduce pain in gynaecological patients. And the impact of tDCS stimulation on patients' quality of life. Standardised questionnaires will be used for pre- and post-stimulation evaluation.

Metastatic colorectal cancer or mCRC is a cancer that starts in the parts of the large intestine (the colon or rectum) and has already spread to other parts of the body. This cancer can be hard to treat because it can behave differently from one person to another. Over time, treatments may stop working, and side effects can build up. In later treatment stages, there are only a few standard medicine options available. Because of this, studies often look at both how long people live and how treatment affects quality of life. The main aim of this study is to see how long adults in Poland with mCRC live without their cancer getting worse (progression-free survival or PFS) when they receive fruquintinib after at least two previous treatments. Fruquintinib (TAK 113) is a medicine taken by mouth that is designed to slow tumor growth. Other aim is to find out how long adults in Poland with mCRC live while being treated with fruquintinib (overall survival or OS). The study also wants to record how fruquintinib is used in routine care in adults with mCRC in Poland (for example when treatment starts, changes in doses, and how long treatment continues). Another aim is to learn about people with mCRC, such as their medical history and past treatment as well as their quality of life while they are in the study. The study will look at data already existing in the participants' medical charts.

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the most effective dose of EIK1005 that a person can take safely. Additionally, this study will test how well EIK1005 is tolerated alone and in combination with pembrolizumab in treating patients with advanced cancer.

Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people with advanced colorectal cancer. Colorectal cancer (cancer of the colon or rectum) is one of the most common cancers worldwide. Treatments include surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and immunotherapy; however, these treatments do not work for everyone, may cause serious adverse events or may stop working eventually. New treatments and treatment combinations are needed, especially for cancers that cannot be removed with surgery or that have spread to other parts of the body (called advanced or metastatic cancer). Cells normally repair themselves when mistakes happen as they divide. But in some people with cancer, the repair system does not work properly because of a problem called dMMR (deficient mismatch repair). As a result, mistakes build up in the cell's DNA, leading to a condition called MSI (microsatellite instability). Over time, these changes can cause cells to grow and behave abnormally, contributing to the development and growth of cancer. To survive, some cancer cells with dMMR or MSI rely on a protein called Werner helicase. This protein helps repair some of the DNA damage allowing them to keep growing. Because these cancer cells depend more on Werner helicase than healthy cells, blocking this protein may help stop cancer cells from surviving while having less effect on healthy cells. The study drug, VVD-133214, is designed to block the Werner helicase protein. Blocking this protein may help stop cancer cells from growing, while causing less harm to healthy cells. VVD-133214 is being studied in combination with pembrolizumab, an approved immunotherapy that helps the immune system recognize and attack cancer cells. This study will test the combination of VVD-133214 and pembrolizumab in people with advanced colorectal cancer with MSI and/or dMMR who have not yet received treatment for their advanced disease. The study aims to find the best dose of VVD-133214 in combination with pembrolizumab and to test whether the combination is more effective than pembrolizumab alone. Participants will receive treatment with VVD-133214 for as long as it can help them and does not cause serious adverse events. Treatment with pembrolizumab will stop after two years. Participants can also stop treatment at any time. During the study, participants will have regular visits with the study doctor for tests, scans, and check-ups. These visits help check how well the cancer is responding to the treatment and monitor the participants' health. The study will also monitor adverse events, which are any new or worsening medical problems that can happen during the study. Doctors record all adverse events, irrespective of whether the study doctor believes they are related to the study treatments, to help ensure participants' safety throughout the study. After stopping treatment, participants will return for follow-up visits: 30 days after their last dose of VVD-133214 and/or 100 days after their last dose of pembrolizumab. After that, participants will have long-term follow-up visits every 90 days for as long as they agree to continue participating in follow-up.
