Avelumab and M6620 for the Treatment of DDR Deficient Metastatic or Unresectable Solid Tumors
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of avelumab with M6620 in treating patients with deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) damage repair (DDR) deficient solid tumors that have spread to other places in the body (metastatic) or cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). DDR deficiency refers to a …
Dual-scopic Pancreatic Necrosectomy (DPN)
The LPN procedure is performed under general anesthesia. The transperitoneal access to peripancreatic space is via the gastro-colic ligament and greater omentum, effusion and pus is removed by laparoscopic forceps and suction. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is performed during the LPN procedure on patients with indication. The NPN procedure is followed …
