There are about 36818 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in China. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
The goal of this clinical trial is to conduct a dietary intervention targeting HIV-specific gut microbiota alterations for primary ASCVD prevention and evaluate its effectiveness in preventing borderline ASCVD risk among HIV-infected patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Explore the pivotal role of the gut-heart axis in the causal relationship between HIV infection and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. - Develop a targeted dietary intervention focusing on gut microbiota to prevent the borderline risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease in HIV-infected patients. - Evaluate the effectiveness of the gut microbiota-targeted dietary intervention in reducing atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk among HIV-infected patients, altering gut microbiota composition, improving risk factors of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, and alleviating prodromal symptoms associated with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Participants in the intervention group will receive the gut microbiota-targeted dietary intervention thrice weekly for 3 months, accompanied by bi-weekly health education videos for the same duration. Meanwhile, the control group will continue routine follow-up and health education practices. The intervention will span three months, followed by a three-month follow-up period. Data collection will occur at baseline, 3 months, and 6 months.
Glioblastoma, the most prevalent malignant tumor in the central nervous system, is characterized by high invasiveness and a propensity to recur, contributing to a relatively elevated mortality rate. Patients diagnosed with high-grade glioblastomas typically experience a median survival period of less than 14 months. Presently, the standard treatment for glioblastoma involves surgical resection combined with postoperative radiotherapy and chemotherapy, with postoperative chemotherapy playing a pivotal role in enhancing patient prognosis. Temozolomide (TMZ), a cutting-edge oral alkylating agent known for its advantageous properties, including easy traversal of the blood-brain barrier, induces DNA alkylation in tumor cells, fostering apoptosis. Currently, it serves as a frontline medication for postoperative chemotherapy in glioblastoma. However, clinical resistance to TMZ chemotherapy significantly hampers its efficacy in later stages. We have recently discovered and validated that 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide (AICA), derived from TMZ, can transform into 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide-5-phosphate (AICAR) in GBM cells. Hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase 1 (HPRT1) has been identified as the catalyst for the AICA reaction, generating AICAR. AICAR acts as an endogenous activator of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), fostering chemoresistance in glioblastoma through the activation of the AMPK signaling pathway. 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP) competes effectively to inhibit HPRT1 activity, thereby impeding TMZ-induced AMPK activation and significantly heightening glioblastoma cell sensitivity to TMZ. In this project, we propose an innovative strategy involving the combination of 6-MP with TMZ for the treatment of glioblastoma.
An evaluation of LY007 cell injection for recurrent/refractory CD20 was positive Tolerability, safety, and efficacy of B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma in open, single-arm Phsea I Clinical research
This study is divided into two parts: the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic profiles of LV232 capsules after multiple ascending doses (hereinafter referred to as "PK characteristics of multiple ascending doses study ") and food effect study (hereinafter referred to as "FE study"). A total of 48 subjects are planned to be enrolled. The two parts of the study can be carried out simultaneously, and there is no order requirement.
Purpose: To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of virtual reality (VR) technology in alleviating pain during colonoscopy. Design and Methods: In the context of a single-centered, prospective, randomized controlled study, the pain levels experienced during colonoscopy are compared between the VR group and the control group.
Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) poses challenges in achieving optimal three-dimensional correction. While posterior fusion with pedicle screws has shown success, osteotomy techniques, such as Ponte osteotomy, have further improved outcomes. However, residual vertebral rotation remains a concern, impacting long-term complications. Intervertebral disc release (IDR) presents a potential solution to enhance derotation and reduce fusion levels, particularly in Lenke Type 5 AIS. This prospective randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of IDR in treating Lenke 5 AIS, comparing it to Ponte osteotomy. The study focuses on axial vertebral rotation correction, coronal curve improvement, blood loss, hospital stay, and adverse events. Participants aged 10-18 with Lenke 5 AIS will undergo either IDR or Ponte osteotomy, randomly assigned. Outcome measures include axial rotation correction rate, radiographic parameters, and clinical assessments. A total of 132 participants will be recruited. The IDR technique, through posterior disc removal, presents a promising approach to optimize derotation in Lenke 5 AIS. While offering potential advantages, challenges like limited working space and bleeding risks require careful consideration. The study's findings aim to provide robust clinical evidence, enhancing treatment strategies for Lenke 5 AIS and offering innovative approaches for AIS as a whole.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of SKB264 as first-line treatment for patients with unresectable recurrent or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) whose tumors do not express programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) or in patients with PD-L1 positive tumors who received prior anti-programmed cell death 1 (PD-1)/PD-L1 inhibitor in early setting
The purpose of this study is to investigate the metastatic status of lateral pelvic lymph nodes in rectal neuroendocrine neoplasms (rNENs) undergoing laparoscopic total mesenteric excision (TME). The hypothesis is that the rate of lateral lymph node metastasis is underestimated in rNENs undergoing TME, necessitating concurrent lateral Pelvic lymph node dissection.
The primary purpose of this phase Ⅰb/Ⅱ study is to investigate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (the study of the way a drug enters and leaves the blood and tissues over time) after multiple dose administration and the efficacy of HS-10506 (change versus placebo) on latency to persistent sleep (LPS) measured by polysomnography (PSG) in Chinese adult participants with insomnia disorder.
The risky decision-making deficits is the core feature of the methamphetamine (MA) dependence. Our previous research found that MA dependents have network abnormalities such as decision-making and rewarding. The feedback-related negativity amplitude in the prefrontal central area of MA users becomes smaller and blunted after a loss. Moreover, the neural modulation over the prefrontal cortex showed potent to decrease the craving, and the functional connectivity between frontal cortex and subparietal lobules increases. It suggests that there is a correlation between the decision-making network and the reward network of MA addicts, but there is no real-time observation of the dynamic changes of these brain network activities, so it is difficult to correct the interaction mechanism. In order to clarify the dynamic brain network mechanism of the risky decision-making deficits among MA dependents, firstly, based on magneto-encephalography source information reconstruction methods, firstly, based on magneto-encephalography source information reconstruction methods, the investigators will observe the sequence and interaction among decision-making network, rewarding network, and emotion network. Besides, the investigators clarify that the trans-cranial current stimulation over prefrontal cortex could improve the speed and intensity of the key network interactions among MA dependents, which could improve risky decision-making and craving. The successful implementation of the study is expected to provide important clues for elucidating the pathological mechanism of risky decision-making deficits in MA dependents and providing a theoretical basis for the treatment of addiction.
