The main purpose of this study was to observe the efficacy and safety of treatment with pyrotinib and CDK4/6 inhibitor SHR6390 for HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer.
The purpose of this study is to identify the highest tolerable dose of pyrotinib in combination with vinorelbine and to assess the safety and efficacy of the combination in Patients With HER2-Positive Locally Advanced or Metastatic Breast Cancer. The study will be conducted in two parts. In the first part, testing will be done on up to 12 subjects to determine the highest tolerable dose of pyrotinib and vinorelbine in patients with advanced solid tumors. In the second part of the study, we will compare the safety and efficacy of Pyrotinib + vinorelbine vs. Treatment of Physician's Choice in Patients With HER2-Positive Locally Advanced or Metastatic Breast Cancer Who Have Received Prior Trastuzumab-Based Therapy.Participants will be treated until disease progression (PD), unmanageable toxicity, or study termination.
Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) patients are at high risk of development of reduced bone mineral density due to impairment of functional status due to the disease and a relatively high dose of glucocorticoid use for the treatment. Reduced bone mineral density is prevalent in local IIMs patients. Denosumab and zoledronic acid are established treatments for osteoporosis in postmenopausal women and glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis. However, the role of these treatments in reduced bone mineral density including osteoporosis and osteopenia related to IIMs are lacking. There is also no evidence on comparing the efficacy of the two agents. Therefore, the investigators conducted this prospective randomized controlled study to compare the efficacies of denosumab and zoledronic acid in treating reduced bone mineral density in IIMs patients. The hypothesis in this study is that treatment by denosumab or zoledronic acid would improve bone mineral density in IIMs patients with reduced bone mineral density.
Obesity is an increasing problem for adults in the UK. Diets high in fat and sugar are the major contributors to weight gain. Individual differences in taste perception are a crucial factor in determining the investigator's choice of foods and an individual's sensitivity to the either bitter or fat taste compounds has been linked to a preference for different foods including sweet and high fat foods. Previous research has not comprehensively explored the effect of both fat and bitter taste sensitivity on dietary intake and obesity status. Therefore, the aim of this study is to explore the associations between genetics, fat and bitter taste sensitivity, food preference, dietary intake and obesity measures in the adult UK population.
This clinical study evaluates short-term feasibility and safety of CardioRenal ExpHeart in patients with worsening heart failure with reduced ejection fraction to optimize pharmacological heart failure treatment.
Acute on chronic liver failure (ACLF) is a distinct syndrome in patients with chronic liver disease with rapid clinical deterioration and has high short term mortality within one month.Despite aggressive clinical care, only half of the patients could survive an episode of ACLF. The investigators hypothesized that the early treatment with therapeutic plasma exchange with plasma and albumin in ACLF patients might improve overall survival in carefully selected patients by removing cytokines, chemokines and toxic substances.
Introduction: Quadriceps weakness was previously associated with functional impairment of osteoarthritis (OA). Evidence also suggests that muscle strength may prevent the progression of existing OA. It is estimated that the decline in muscle mass between 40 and 80 years is between 30% and 50%, with reported losses in functional capacity reaching 3% each year beyond the age of 60 years. Therefore, procedures capable of increasing the effects of exercise on muscle strength and function may be beneficial for elderly patients with knee OA. The results of our studies have shown that with each year of life the patient loses strength gain capacity. Objective: To evaluate if a multiprofessional educational program associated with BCAA and creatine supplementation improves the quality of life, function, pain and body composition of patients with OA and age greater than or equal to 70 years. METHODS: 34 patients with knee OA and age greater than or equal to 70 years will undergo an educational and physical training program lasting 20 weeks. Half of the patients will receive creatine (control) and the others will receive creatine and BCAA (study). Patients will be evaluated through functional tests (sit-up and 30-second tests and time up and go), standardized questionnaires (WOMAC and Lequesne), quality of life scales (Euroqol-EQ-5D-5L), pain (through VAS), body composition and bone density (through densitometry), and level of physical activity. All of the above parameters will be assessed at the beginning of the study and 6 and 12 months later. All project costs will be reported and a cost-effectiveness and cost-utility analysis will be performed. All project costs will be reported and a cost-effectiveness and cost-utility analysis will be performed.
This is a non-randomized, phase II, open-label study. The goal of this clinical research study is to investigate how well sintilimab works in preventing high-risk oral premalignant lesions cancerization.
This is a Phase 1, randomized, open-label, 2-way crossover, pharmacokinetic study in adult patients with hematological malignancies eligible to receive either cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (CHOP) regimen or rituximab-CHOP (R-CHOP) regimen.
COronaVIrus Disease or Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome -CoV-2 or COVID-19, mortality occurs mainly from immunological behavior or by suicide after healing . In both cases, the causal link is coronavirus within the host response. The rationale of use of deep yoga breathing as adjuvant treatment to COVID-19 disease , is linked to the mechanical action to stimulate the vagus nerve through scalene and sternocleidomastoid muscles function of which the continuity of action bring to modulate upto suppress, the inflammatory reflex and pro-inflammatory cytokines overproduction and contextual lowering of the sympathetic stress response as a first cause of sleep and late mental disorders which can increase the annual suicide rate. An easily breathing medical Yoga protocol has been developed to test a cost-effective care provision, training, contact tracing and mass efficacy testing.
