A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single ascending dose (SAD) and multiple ascending dose (MAD) study to assess the safety, tolerability, and PK of single and multiple ascending doses of MTX-463 administered in healthy adults.
This is a clinical study aiming to assess pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and preliminary efficacy of 83-0060 in Healthy Volunteers
The Lumerah System, developed and manufactured by Raydiant Oximetry, Inc., is a non-invasive fetal pulse oximeter that measures fetal arterial oxygen saturation using safe, non-invasive, transabdominal near-infrared spectroscopy. The Lumerah System is intended as an adjunct to cardiotocography. In this study, women in labor will also be simultaneously monitored with a re-engineered version of the previously approved transvaginal oximeter sensor connected to a Nellcor N-400 fetal oximetry monitor for the purposes of device development. The data obtained from the transabdominal sensor and the transvaginal sensor will be used for research purposes only and will not be used to guide or alter patient management.
The aim of the study is to investigate the effects of 28 days supplementation of Lions mane mushroom and mushroom blend of Lions mane and reishi mushroom, on wellbeing in stressed or anxious women. The study will follow a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group design. Participants will receive either lion's mane mushroom mane (1.8 gram per day, consisting of 3 x 600mgcapsules), a blend of lion's mane mushroom and reishi mushroom 1.8 gram per day, consisting of 3x600mg capsules) or placebo (1.8-gram microcrystalline cellulose placebo powder, 3x600mg capsules). The trial will utilise Generalised Anxiety Disorder Assessment (GAD-7); the anxiety subscale of the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS); Chalder Fatigue Scale; Rosenberg's Self-Esteem Scale; Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) and Stress Visual Analogue Scales (S-VAS) at baseline and after 28 days supplementation. Participants will complete the HADS and S-VAS at home on days 7, 14 and 21. On day 42 (14 days after treatment ending) participants will complete the GAD-7, HADS and S-VAS. 135 healthy women (who self-report being stressed and/or anxious) aged 18-26 (and born between 1997 and 2013) will be recruited using opportunity sampling. Participants will be supplied with either one of the active treatments or the placebo (allocated by a randomised schedule) whilst visiting the research centre for the testing appointments and will take treatment home to consume daily for the duration of the study. Participants will record time of taking treatment each day in a treatment diary which will be returned to the research centre, along with any unused treatment, upon completion of the study.
Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) is an orphan disease that affects approximately 20,000 people in the United States and is caused by infection with human papillomavirus (HPV) types 6 and 11. Since RRP is an orphan disease, it is an understudied disease entity with correspondingly few treatment options. The investigators hypothesize that by understanding the biology of RRP and the failed host immune responses against HPV, novel and rational therapies can be developed. This study will examine the genetic and immunologic alterations found in these rare tumors and distant metastatic involved sites (such as the lung) in patients diagnosed with RRP.
Rotator cuff tear is one of the most common shoulder diseases and conservative treatment is commonly used for tears involving ≤50% of tendon thickness. Since conventional conservative treatments are not fundamental to repair tendon tissue, there is a growing need of new therapy to improve structural outcome. This study assesses the safety and efficacy of allogeneic fibroblasts on partial-thickness rotator cuff tear. The primary outcome is change in Constant Score (CS) at 24 weeks after TPX-115 injection. Secondary outcomes include changes from baseline in CS, Visual Analogue Score (VAS) pain score, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score, Quick Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (Quick-DASH), Simple Shoulder Test (SST), and functional evaluations including Range of Motion (ROM) at 4, 12, 24 and 52 weeks after administration and structural evaluation using MRI at 24 and 52 weeks after injection.
The study investigates the genetic backgrounds of extreme childhood obesity (using saliva sample) and contains short online questionnaires on family history, phenotypical characteristics and hunger behavior. It is an observational study in a predefined cohort (subjects with data in CrescNet aged 0-18 with BMI measurement(s) above the 99.5th percentile). Recruitment will initially be from CrescNet data through the cooperating pediatric and adolescent medical institutions associated with these initiative of data collection in Germany.
Assessment of healing of thin and perforated cornea after surgical treatment by anterior segment optical coherence tomography
Thyroid nodule is a common condition that affects up to 60% of the population. There is an estimated 10% lifetime probability of developing a thyroid nodule. Although most thyroid nodules are benign, up to 10-15% can enlarge to cause compressive symptoms including neck pressure and discomfort, dysphagia, dyspnea, and dysphonia. The conventional treatment for these benign but problematic nodules has been thyroidectomy. Although generally a low risk operation, thyroidectomy is associated with some risk for recurrent laryngeal nerve injury, bleeding, infection, and need for thyroid hormone supplementation. Since the early 2000s, ultrasound-guided percutaneous thermal ablation has emerged as a potential alternative treatment to surgery for benign thyroid nodules. Of the myriad ablation methods, the most commonly used techniques are radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and microwave ablation (MWA). [1-3] A growing body of evidence shows that RFA is an effective treatment for benign solid thyroid nodules, toxic adenomas, and thyroid cysts resulting in overall volume reduction ranges of 40-80% at 1 year, with durable resolution of compressive and hyperthyroid symptoms. However, RFA is not without its limitations. Radiofrequency waves can be limited by the heat sink effect and tissue char leading to longer procedure times and potentially less optimal outcomes in larger, hypervascular, and/or more cystic nodules. Microwave ablation (MWA) is another ablative technique that uses electromagnetic energy waves to cause tissue hyperthermia and coagulative necrosis. It generally causes higher ablation temperatures than RFA and is less subject to the heat sink effect, and therefore can facilitate more efficient ablation procedures. Current evidence comparing RFA versus MWA for thyroid ablation was limited and was either retrospective, non-randomized [4-9], under-powered, or with an unequal baseline. The results from these studies were also conflicting, suggesting suboptimal quality of evidence and bias due to non-standardized technique of ablation across studies. To date, there is no randomized controlled trial comparing the efficacy and safety of RFA versus MWA for the treatment of benign thyroid nodules. Given the higher ablation temperatures, freedom from heat sink effect, and no influence from impedance changes during ablation, MWA may achieve different treatment efficacy.
In adults, chronic plantar fasciitis stands as the predominant cause of persistent heel discomfort.Usually, individuals depict a pulsating pain concentrated around the point of origin of the plantar fascia on the calcaneus. Numerous randomized and non-randomized studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of radiofrequency as a treatment modality for chronic plantar heel pain.In this study, our objective is to assess the impact of radiofrequency modalities applied to the posterior tibial nerve and/or the calcaneal spur area, guided by ultrasound, on patient satisfaction, pain scores, and functional improvement in individuals with chronic plantar fasciitis
