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.
This study takes amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) patients as the main research object. Through collecting genetics, imaging and clinical symptoms for Exploratory research, we will construct the gene spectrum of ALS in China, explore unknown pathogenic genes, explore the characteristic image characteristics of ALS, and establish the iPSCs library of ALS, providing resources and basis for the research of pathogenesis and treatment targets of ALS.
In this study, patients with aged-related hearing loss with depression and without depression were evaluated by audiometry (pure tone audiometry and speech audiometry), cognitive function assessment (MMSE scale for simple mental state test, MoCA Scale for Montreal Cognitive Assessment), and depressive symptoms assessment (GDS-15 and HAMD), resting state EEG. The ananlysis of resting state EEG included power spectral density, traceability analysis, functional connectivity, microstate, clustering coefficient, characteristic path length, characteristic path permeability, and compatibility coefficient. EEG signals were used to explore the activation of brain regions and poor connectivity of brain regions affected by cognitive reserve dissonance on the level of brain imaging. This paper innovatively explores the influence of cognitive reserve dissonance on depressive mood in senile deafness by means of audiological assessment, cognitive function assessment, depression symptom assessment, resting state electroencephalography (EEG) and other technical means. Auditory and cognitive cortical activation, functional connectivity of brain regions, small-world attributes and microstates were analyzed in senile deafness with or without depression at the brain imaging level.
Overall Design: This is a phase I, open-label, multicenter clinical study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary anti-cancer efficacy of ABM-1310 in patients with BRAF V600-mutant relapsed and drug resistant primary malignant brain tumors. The study including four periods of screening (28 days), treatment (no more than 2 years), safety follow-up and survival follow-up. This study consists of two stages: dose escalation and dose expansion. During the dose escalation stage, a classic "3+3" design will be used to guide dose escalation to determine MTD and RP2D. Three to six subjects are expected to be enrolled in each dose group and at least 6 subjects are enrolled in the MTD/highest dose group. The total number of subjects enrolled during the dose escalation stage will depend on the amount of DLT and the total number of dose levels explored. If DLT is not observed in the first 3 subjects enrolled for each dose level, the Safety Monitoring Committee (SMC, including investigators, pharmacologists, and the sponsor's medical specialists, and other experienced members specially invited as necessary) will review the cumulative safety data of subjects at each dose level and decide whether to proceed with dose escalation upon the completion of study treatment at least for the DLT evaluation period (28 days of Cycle 1). The dose expansion stage in this study will be initiated at the MTD or the optimal dose determined by the SMC as a fixed dose level (MTD or the optimal dose needs to be reviewed by the SMC and subjects are safe and tolerable at that dose level). The dose expansion stage is expected to include the following two cohorts of relapsed and drug resistant primary malignant brain tumors with BRAF V600 mutations:Cohort 1: GBM, N = up to 25 patients; Cohort 2: In addition to GBM, other primary malignant brain tumors, N = up to 15 patients. In this study, the corresponding sample size for each cohort/tumor type may be determined according to the actual efficacy and safety data obtained. After each cohort included the first 10 patients, the available safety, efficacy, and PK data were analyzed. Based on the analysis results, the sponsor decided whether to continue recruiting patients for the study.
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic chronic inflammatory disease, and depression and anxiety are among the most common comorbidities in RA patients, with a high prevalence rate. Epidemiological studies have found that joint deformities, severe pain, positive serum RF titers, as well as comorbidities such as hypertension, insomnia, pain, and fatigue are significantly associated with depression and anxiety in RA patients. Currently, clinical studies have found that the relief of depression or anxiety is one of the expected treatment goals for RA patients. Due to the unclear pathogenic factors of depression or anxiety in RA patients, there is a lack of effective clinical treatment options. Therefore, this study will use a "causal inference model" to identify possible "mediating variables" that may lead to the comorbidity of RA and emotional disorders through clinical investigation, aiming to improve the precision of treatment for physicians.
Ciprofol, a novel intravenous general anesthetic with a chemical structure akin to propofol, boasts significantly enhanced potency. It offers a rapid onset, reduced incidence of injection pain, and minor impact on the cardiovascular system. However, clinical research regarding ciprofol's use for anesthesia induction in cardiac surgery remains limited. The investigators want to assesse the safety and effectiveness of ciprofol in cardiac surgery anesthesia
Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST) are the preferred techniques for treating common bile duct stones (CBDS) due to their advantages of minimal trauma, rapid recovery, low cost, and high success rates of up to 95%. Despite these benefits, the recurrence rate of CBDS in patients after endoscopic therapy ranges from 4% to 25%, posing a significant challenge for endoscopists and an urgent problem to be addressed. Abdominal massage is a promising non-invasive physical intervention for preventing recurrent CBDS. This technique is a simple, effective, and non-invasive technique that can be utilized for patient self-management and is widely used in the field of digestive diseases. External pressure applied to the common bile duct during abdominal massage may promote bile excretion from the duct to the duodenum, similar to the effect of gallbladder movement flushing bile, which can prevent bile deposition in the common bile duct, thereby preventing the formation of new stones or flushing away newly-generated small stones. Therefore, investigators plan to conduct a prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled study to investigate the preventive effect of abdominal massage in patients with recurrent CBDS.
For free hand dental implant placement, a key difficulty is to accurately control the position. Improving precision of dental implant placement is considered important for safety and efficacy of tooth replacement with dental implants. There are 3 available methods to improve implant position according to a digitally constructed prosthetically guided plan: the use of a 3D printed static guide, the use of a dynamic navigation system or the use of a robotic system. The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to compare the positional implant accuracy, the surgical time, and patient satisfaction among three methods of digital guidance: the use of a 3D printed static guide, dynamic navigation, and robotic assisted surgery. Patients requiring single tooth replacement with a dental implant will be digitally planned using a CBCT and an intraoral digital scan. Subjects will be randomized to one of the three treatment modalities based on the plan. The accuracy of placement will be assessed evaluating the difference between the planned and the actual position using a follow-up scan taken at the end of the surgery. Subjects will be followed up for one year to assess both patient reported and professional outcomes.
This study aims to use a combination of abbreviated protocol and artificial intelligence to automatically identify lesions and make diagnosis without decreasing the diagnostic accuracy of breast cancer, thus enhancing the comfort of patient examination, accelerating the flow of examination and reducing the load of clinical work.
Proximal early gastric cancer can choose radical total gastrectomy or proximal gastrectomy. The patients have poor nutritional status and quality of life after total gastrectomy. Compare to total gastrectomy, the nutritional status can improve after proximal gastrectomy . But if use simple esophagogastric anastomosis for proximal gastrectomy, the incidence of postoperative reflux esophagitis is high, which seriously affects the quality of life, and the short-term outcome is poorer than the total gastrectomy. If the incidence of postoperative reflux esophagitis can be reduced, proximal gastrectomy would be the treatment choice for proximal early gastric cancer, which may more improve both quality of life and nutritional condition than total gastrectomy. Double-flap technique is a new surgical reconstruction procedure between esophagus and remnant stomach. It can reduce the occurrence of reflux oesophagitis through reconstruction a simulative cardia. At present, the technique has been carried out in some hospitals in China but still lack large-scale prospective studies and evidence of evidence-based medicine. At present, some retrospective studies have shown that robotic assisted proximal gastrectomy with double-flap technique is safe and effective, and the learning curve is shorter than laparoscopic surgery. The applicant have finished two robotic assisted proximal gastrectomy with double-flap technique cases. Two patients recovered well after surgery, with no occurrence of anastomotic leakage or stenosis and the postoperative quality of life was good. Now we plan to conduct a multi-center, single arm study on proximal early gastric cancer patients(T1N0-1M0 and T2N0M0) to evaluate the feasibility of robotic assisted proximal gastrectomy with double-flap technique , and to evaluate the surgical and oncological safety of this surgical method. Aim to provide initial evidence of evidence-based medicine for its clinical application..
Central-type lung cancer refers to lung malignancies originating from the segmental bronchi and above. The most common tissue type is squamous cell carcinoma. Patients often present with cough, hemoptysis, hoarseness and also some critical conditions including superior vena caval obstruction syndrome. Therefore, effective treatment should be implemented as early as possible to rapidly reduce tumor burden and control the progression of the disease. Most of the central-type NSCLC are classified into T3-4, N1-2 stage and are non-resectable. The PACIFIC study changed the standard treatment model for inoperable locally advanced lung cancer with synchronous chemoradiotherapy and sequential PD-L1 immunotherapy. In clinical practice, Chinese patients often failed to finish concurrent chemoradiotherapy for high toxicity. In addition, combination with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors increased the risk of immune related pneumonia. Bronchial artery infusion (BAI), that directly infused drugs (chemo and PD-1 inhibitor) through tumor-nourishing arteries, has potential advantages in the treatment of central-type lung cancer. The drug concentration in tumor region increased to potentiate the antitumoral effect and also reduced the systemic adverse reactions. In this study, bronchial artery interventional therapy is conducted with precedence. The protocol for bronchial artery intervention includes infusion of chemo and PD-1 inhibitor followed by bronchial artery embolism (Chemo-Immulo-embolization via Tumor arterial, CIETAI). Followed CIETAI, two cycles of chemo/PD-1 therapy are planned to carried out before radiotherapy. After radiotherapy, maintenance PD-1 inhibitor are initiated for 1 year or until progression.
