Researchers are studying treatments for patients with hormone receptor-positive HR-positive and HER2-negative early-stage breast cancer who are at higher risk of relapse after surgery. This phase II, open-label study focuses on using a biomarker called circulating tumor DNA ctDNA to monitor minimal residual disease. The goal is to identify patients at molecular relapse and evaluate whether treatment at this stage can improve outcomes. The study involves multiple centers and is designed to test different treatment options based on ctDNA results. The study has three phases pre-screening, molecular follow-up ctDNA surveillance, and treatment. After giving consent, about 976 eligible patients will enter the ctDNA surveillance phase where tumor tissue and blood samples are collected to create a personalized mutation panel. Blood samples will be analyzed every three months during the first year and every six months thereafter to detect ctDNA. When ctDNA positivity is confirmed, up to 40 patients will be assigned sequentially to one of four treatment arms continuing standard endocrine therapy ET, giredestrant alone, giredestrant with abemaciclib, or giredestrant with inavolisib. Treatments are taken orally in cycles lasting 28 days and may continue up to five years or until disease recurrence or unacceptable side effects. Male and premenopausal participants receive additional hormone therapy LHRH agonist as needed. Participants will undergo regular blood sample collections during surveillance and treatment to monitor ctDNA levels and correlate changes with treatment response. Safety and side effects will be tracked throughout the treatment phase, which can last up to five years. After stopping treatment, patients enter a follow-up period where survival and new cancer therapies are recorded every three months. The primary outcome is measuring a decrease or clearance of ctDNA three months after starting treatment. Secondary outcomes include various ctDNA changes over time and treatment-related adverse events. Additional treatment arms may be added based on ongoing results.

The registry focuses on patients with venous thromboembolism VTE, including those often excluded from typical clinical trials such as pregnant women, elderly patients, and those with serious health conditions. It aims to improve medical knowledge and patient care by collecting detailed data on these patients clinical status and treatment outcomes. The project also seeks to develop predictive scores to identify patients at higher risk of complications from thromboembolic disease. This observational registry collects extensive information on patients diagnosed with VTE, including details on coexisting conditions, antithrombotic treatment type, dose, and duration, as well as outcomes during the first three months of therapy. It captures data on VTE recurrences, bleeding complications, and deaths, providing insights into real-world treatment and patient management. Participants provide informed consent and are followed for at least three months to monitor clinical outcomes. The registry supports physicians by giving access to data on patients with similar profiles to help manage complex cases. The main outcomes measured include VTE events and complications over a three-year period, supporting ongoing improvements in patient care and risk assessment.

Researchers are conducting a national, multicenter observational study called SOGUG-PRINCIS to collect and analyze data on patients with genitourinary cancers treated with recently approved drugs under routine clinical practice in Spain. This study is both retrospective and prospective, aiming to validate real-world effectiveness of these drugs and support future funding decisions. It will serve as a registry where new subprojects will open whenever new drugs receive authorization. The study follows patients who have started treatment with specific drugs funded by the Spanish National Health System, including darolutamide combined with androgen deprivation therapy and docetaxel for hormone-sensitive prostate cancer, adjuvant nivolumab after surgery for urothelial carcinoma, and enfortumab vedotin for urothelial carcinoma. All treatments follow their approved dosing and administration guidelines and standard clinical practice. Participants progress will be monitored through routine data collection to evaluate outcomes such as progression-free survival at 18 months, relapse-free survival at 24 months, and overall survival at 12 months after starting treatment. Data will be gathered from patients treated at participating centers, with follow-up continuing as per routine care. The study does not intervene in treatment decisions, which are made independently before enrollment.

This research aims to collect detailed information about patients with lung cancer and other thoracic tumors to better understand the disease and treatment outcomes. It focuses on individualizing treatment based on markers that predict response to chemotherapy and molecular inhibitors. The study addresses challenges such as poor prognosis, variability in diagnosis and treatment, and the need for improved early detection and prevention strategies across Europe and Spain. The study is observational and multicenter, gathering data both retrospectively and prospectively from patients diagnosed and treated by medical professionals including thoracic surgeons and oncologists. It includes multiple groups of patients based on the type of thoracic tumor, such as non-small cell lung cancer, small cell lung cancer, mesothelioma, thymic cancer, and carcinoid cancer. There are no experimental treatments instead, it involves comprehensive data collection on patient characteristics and treatments. Participants provide information from their medical history and treatment records over up to 10 years. Researchers study epidemiological and therapeutic factors related to thoracic tumors by reviewing clinical data. The main outcome is to describe characteristics of these tumors in Spanish patients. The study involves no interventions or medications, focusing on observation and data analysis to inform future care and research.
