Filter by:This research project is evaluate the incidence of platelet refractoriness in newly diagnosed acute leukemia patients receiving PFB during induction and first consolidation phase chemotherapy compared to 2 historical control groups which are patients receiving non-leukocyte depleted blood product group and leukocyte depleted blood product group and demonstrate cost-effectiveness of using blood products with filtered process to prevent clinical platelet refractoriness compare with using HLA-matched blood products after platelet refractoriness occurs
the investigators's study group has developed a fully automated 3D convolutional neural network (CNN)-based diagnostic framework using information of appendix (IA) model to identify non-appendicitis and simple and complicated appendicitis on CT scan images based on the two-stage binary classification algorithm, as a clinician does for deciding treatment. The dataset was built from a large population of patients visiting emergency departments who underwent intravenous contrast-enhanced abdominopelvic CT examinations to evaluate abdominal pain in the right or lower quadrant area as the chief complaint. Recently, the IA model was externally validated using a dataset of multicenter institutions through data exfiltration. In this study, the investigators hypothesized that the IA model would show a comparable negative appendicitis rate of <10% non-inferior margins compared to non-radiologists with a shorter interpretation time in a prospectively randomized dataset.
Vapendavir (VPV) is a drug being developed to treat human rhinovirus (RV) infection, one virus responsible for the common cold. Vapendavir prevents the virus from entering cells and making more infectious copies of itself. A study is being planned to investigate VPV in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD, a lung disease making it difficult to breathe) who develop a rhinoviral infection; however, VPV has not been approved for use in treating any indication (disease) by the FDA or any other global regulatory agency. Therefore, VPV is considered investigational, and the study doctor is conducting this investigational research study. Safety will be monitored throughout the entire study.
The study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Atusin® CAP in reducing the severity of acute bronchitis.
This phase II trial studies how well giving an umbilical cord blood transplant together with cyclophosphamide, fludarabine, and total-body irradiation (TBI) works in treating patients with hematologic diseases. Giving chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, fludarabine and thiotepa, and TBI before a donor cord blood transplant (CBT) helps stop the growth of cancer and abnormal cells and helps stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. When the healthy stem cells from a donor are infused into the patient they may help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil after transplant may stop this from happening in patients with high-risk hematologic diseases.
Study design is multicenter prospective registry study. Participants are consecutive (non-selected, a sequential registration) patients admitted from emergency rooms of participating hospitals who meet the eligibility criteria. The primary objectives are to estimate the prevalence of and risk factors for RS and other respiratory virus infection and their effect on hospital course in patients with any respiratory symptom who admit from emergency room using a multicenter prospective registry study. The primary target virus is RS virus and the secondary target viruses are respiratory virus and other microorganisms measured by FilmArray 2.1.
This is an open-label, multicenter, single-group study designed to determine the effectiveness of Mucinex® when used by patients to treat SCB over a 12-week period, following a 2-week run-in period of no treatment (to establish a baseline).
Non-operative management (NOM) with antibiotics may be a safe alternative to surgery for uncomplicated appendicitis, but preoperative differentiation between uncomplicated and complicated appendicitis is challenging. The study aimed to develop a clinical-radiomics nomogram to distinguish uncomplicated from complicated appendicitis.
To preliminarily evaluate the safety and feasibility of the pulsed electric field ablation system independently developed by Zhouling (Shanghai) Medical Appliance Co., Ltd. in the treatment of chronic bronchitis.
This phase II trial tests the safety and best dose of SNDX-5613 (revumenib) in combination with chemotherapy, and evaluates whether this treatment improves the outcome in infants and young children who have leukemia that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory) and is associated with a KMT2A (MLL) gene rearrangement (KMT2A-R). Leukemia is a cancer of the white blood cells, where too many underdeveloped (abnormal) white blood cells, called "blasts", are found in the bone marrow, which is the soft, spongy center of the bones that produces the three major blood cells: white blood cells to fight infection; red blood cells that carry oxygen; and platelets that help blood clot and stop bleeding. The blasts crowd out the normal blood cells in the bone marrow and spread to the blood. They can also spread to the brain, spinal cord, and/or other organs of the body. The leukemia cells of some children have a genetic change in which a gene (KMT2A) is broken and combined with other genes that typically do not interact with one another; this is called "rearranged". This genetic rearrangement alters how other genes are turned on or off in the cell, turning on genes that drive the development of leukemia. Patients with KMT2A rearrangement have higher risk for cancer coming back after treatment. Revumenib is an oral medicine that directly targets the changes that occur in a cell with a KMT2A rearrangement and has been shown to specifically kill these leukemia cells in preclinical laboratory settings and in animals. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as vincristine, prednisone, asparaginase, fludarabine and cytarabine work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. This trial is being done to find out if the combination of revumenib and chemotherapy would be safe and/or effective in treating infants and young children with relapsed or refractory KMT2A-R leukemia.
