Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: Safety assessment of the impact of ECT associated with bleomycin ;Secondary Objective: 1. feasibility assessment of the applied technique 2. ECT quality life assessment 3. ECT treatment response evaluation 4. Overall Survival assessment at 18 months ;Primary end point(s): 1) monitoring adverse events according to CTCAE criteria during the 18 months of follow up 2) monitoring clinical paramenters (T° C, blood pressure, heart rate), laboratory parameters (specific tumor markers CEA and Ca19.9 and inflammation index PCR) and instrumental parameters (eventually normal clinical practice exams) during the 18 months of follow up;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 18 months of follow up | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 18 mesi di follow up;Secondary end point(s): 1) feasibility assessment of the applied technique understood as perfectly successful operation (bleomycin injection and proper and possible insertion of electrodes in the time and manner prescribed by the protocol) 2) for the Quality Life assessment it will use the Karnofsky Performance Index 13.12 each follow-up visit (to 1.3.6.9.12.15.18 months after ECT) and VAS to the different time points (to 1.3.6.9.12.15.18 months after ECT) 3) for ECT treatment response evaluation it will used RECIST criteria to 1.3.6.9.12 months after ECT 4) Overall Survival measurement at 12th month after ECT, measured as time from ECT to death because of all causes5) adaptive and innate immune response will be evaluated by the variation in levels of IL6 and HSP70 between the pre-ECT, 2 days and 30 days after surgery. | — |
