Study the efficacy of endoresection of the tumor scar or, when surgery is not possible, transpupillary thermotherapy on the tumor scar to prevent neovascular glaucoma and secondary enucleation
Main aim of this study was to assess survival rates of short implants with a length of 4 mm in the edentulous mandible after 1, 3, and 5 years.
The purpose of this clinical trial (NCT02627196) is to develop valid scientific evidence for safety and effectiveness of Baroreflex Activation Therapy with the BAROSTIM NEO System in subjects with heart failure, defined as New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional Class III, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤ 35% and NT-proBNP<1600 pg/ml despite being treated with the appropriate heart failure guideline directed therapy, excluding subjects eligible for or actively receiving Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT). The total trial duration is anticipated to be approximately 5 years; however, the duration of an individual subject enrollment will depend on when he or she entered the trial.
Informed consent obtained from the patient or the patient's legal surrogate. The window for randomization and initiation of study drug infusion is 2 days from day of Admission. All further time points are relative to the day of randomization. Patients will be randomized (1:1) to receive either recombinant human GM-CSF or placebo. Using randomized block design of 10 each generated by computer and provided in sequential, sealed, opaque envelopes. Subjects will be stratified based on Child status. Patients who fulfil the inclusion criteria will receive either slow IV infusion of GM CSF (Sargamostatim-250mcg/M2) over 4 hour and inhalation of same dose by micronebulizer for 7 days OR Placebo(saline infusion and saline nebulization). Standard medical care will be given in both limbs.
The short chain fatty acid (SCFA) metabolism has not been studied in subjects suffering from COPD. The purpose of this study is to compare the SCFA metabolism in COPD patients to healthy matched controls. This protocol is an extension of recent studies about protein digestion and absorption abnormalities in COPD patients. The investigators hypothesize that SCFA production might be lower in COPD patients than in healthy subjects.
To evaluate the following items in patients with locally advanced and metastatic biliary tract cancer receiving SLOG or GC treatment, Primary objective: 6-month progression-free survival rate Secondary objectives: Objective response rate Disease control rate (Objective response rate (ORR) + stable disease ≧ 12 weeks) Progression-free Survival Overall survival Safety profile Biomarker study
The main objective of the CIRCULATE project is to compare the clinical outcomes of CardioCell administration in treatment of ischemic damages of cardiovascular system with control group, who will be treated by the administration of placebo during the sham procedure.
This study will evaluate the performance of Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-cognitive subscale (ADAS-cog) in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD).
The primary aim of this randomized controlled trial is to determine if the integration of a Community Health Worker into the healthcare team is associated with an improvement in diabetes control in children with type 1 diabetes. The secondary objectives are to determine if utilization of Community Health Workers is also associated with reduced emergency department visits and hospitalizations, improved attendance at outpatient diabetes appointments, and improvements in psychosocial outcomes and diabetes control.
The investigators plan to include both operable and inoperable patients with esophagus cancer in this prospective trial. Since both proton and photon treatments are biologically equivalent, the investigators do not expect a difference in tumor control compared to intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT). The investigators have a prospective experience of physician-reported toxicity and patient outcome using IMRT for patients with inoperable esophagus cancer that will serve as a comparison group. For the resectable patients receiving trimodality therapy (chemoradiation followed by surgery), the investigators will carefully track toxicity and patient outcomes prospectively. The central hypothesis is that the biologic efficacy for tumor control should be similar between protons and photons, and therefore survival measures should be similar between the two groups, but that the main difference lies in the total severe toxicities experienced by the patients undergoing therapy.
