Neoplasms Research at Azienda USL Toscana Centro
At Azienda USL Toscana Centro in Prato, the clinical trial program is focused on neoplasms, with studies exploring new ways to treat several difficult-to-manage cancers and rare tumors. The research includes work on improving treatment effectiveness, delaying disease progression, and testing promising therapies for both early-stage and advanced disease.
- Endometrial cancer research is evaluating a new maintenance approach for advanced or recurrent disease to better control cancer growth.
- Studies in colorectal cancer are assessing short-course preoperative targeted treatments for molecularly selected resectable tumors.
- Trials in ovarian, fallopian tube, and primary peritoneal cancers are testing maintenance strategies for platinum-sensitive disease.
- Breast cancer research covers both ER-positive/HER2-negative early breast cancer and HER2-low or HER2 IHC 0 metastatic breast cancer, with studies aimed at improving anti-tumor activity and treatment outcomes.
- A rare tumor study is focused on tenosynovial giant cell tumor, evaluating whether a new therapy can reduce tumor activity.
Overall, the site’s oncology team is investigating therapies designed to improve response rates, extend progression-free survival, and support more effective care across a range of solid tumors.
