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.
Functional dyspepsia (FD) is one of most common chronic gastrointestinal disorders. Several types of drugs were demonstrated to be effective in reduction or remission of symptoms and severity of FD, including proton pump inhibitors (PPI), Tricyclic antidepressant and prokinetics. However, the clinical course of FD after taking medication-based treatment was unknown. Furthermore, 20-50% patients remained persistent or worsening of dyspepsia symptoms after treatment. Previous studies have suggested psychological factors (eg. anxiety, sleep disturbance) were related to less improvement of symptoms in natural clinical course. However, there is limited evidence in terms of clinical and psychological factors for less improvement in patients receiving medication treatment for dyspepsia.
The purpose of this extension study is to collect long-term efficacy, safety and tolerability data on remibrutinib in a selected group of participants with Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria (CSU) who previously completed the treatment phase of remibrutinib preceding Phase 3 studies. This study will also fulfill the Novartis commitment to provide post-trial access to participants who have completed the preceding Phase 3 studies, where applicable.
The chronic kidney disease is caused by renal structural and functional impairment for more than 3 months due to various causes, including normal and abnormal glomerular filtration rate (GFR), abnormal blood, urine, and imaging findings, or an unexplained decline in GFR (<60 ml/min). Recent years, the incidence of chronic kidney disease has increased year by year worldwide, the incidence of CKD is 8% to 16% in the world's total population. chronic kidney disease has become an important public health problem in China and even the world. Summarizing the basic and clinical studies at home and abroad, inflammatory factors such as inflammatory chemokines, cytokines, and reactive oxygen species interact with fibrosis factors such as mesangial cells, fibroblasts, and fibroblast activation, which are the root causes of the progression of CKD and the formation of tubular interstitial fibrosis and glomerular sclerosis and developing into end-stage renal disease. Current treatments for chronic kidney disease are very limited, and to be precise, there is currently no cure for chronic kidney disease, nor is there a proven way to improve the kidneys survive after acute kidney injury (AKI). The progression of the disease itself can only be delayed as much as possible by changing the diet, controlling related complications with oral medications (such as hypertension, hyperlipidemia, nephropathy, etc.), and actively controlling blood glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin levels in patients with diabetes. For patients with stage CKD5 and more severe, renal replacement therapy is recommended, including hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis, but there are many complications in both dialysis methods, such as narrowing of the internal fistula, occlusion, catheter infection, peritonitis, etc. Kidney transplantation may be considered when economic conditions permit and there is a matching kidney source, but kidney transplant surgery is riskier. The above treatment methods have brought a heavy burden to patients and social medicine. In order to seek innovative and effective strategies to cultivate the limited regenerative capacity of the kidneys and reverse renal fibrosis, the mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) with tissue regenerative potential and immunomodulatory functions have brought new ideas and hopes for the prevention and treatment of chronic kidney disease.
This is a prospective, randomized, open-label, evaluator-blinded, single center, proof of concept trial to explore possible beneficial effect of minocycline on acute ischemic stroke (AIS) undergoing endovascular treatment due to basilar artery occlusion (BAO). Minocycline has excellent safety profiles, have been previously demonstrated individually to reduce infarction in animal models of stroke, and have potentially mechanisms of antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic and protection of blood-brain barrier. However, it is not known whether minocycline can reduce futile recanalization of endovascular treatment, and improve the outcome of patients with AIS due to BAO. Eligible and willing subjects will be randomly assigned to the treatment group or the control group. The treatment group will receive 200 mg oral minocycline within three hours prior to successful reperfusion, followed by 100 mg every 12 hours times for a total of 5 days. Both groups will receive endovascular thrombectomy and standard medical. The treatment with minocycline will start as soon as possible after diagnosis of stroke. Measures of stroke severity and disability will be recorded at baseline and through the follow-up periods (90 days). The evaluator will be blind to the allocation of patients further minimizing the bias.
Study method: This test screened the subjects first, and proposed to include 50 subjects with primary or recurrent eyelid plate gland cysts without obvious surgical indications. All subjects underwent three strong pulsed light therapy combined with eyelid plate gland massage, treatment of local anesthesia eye drops, and metal pads were placed in conjunctival sac protection. Eye protection, using the M22 strong pulsed light small optical treatment head of the medical company, energy selection 14-16J/cm2, laser position is selected on the upper and lower eyelids, 3mm away from the root of the eyelashes. Each interval is 3 weeks. Eye-related examinations were performed before treatment and 3 times after treatment. The evaluation content included: ocular surface, slit lamp observation, anterior segment photography, intraocular pressure, vision, corneal fluorescein staining, tear film rupture time, eyelid plate gland evaluation, eyelid plate gland cyst relief, eyelid plate gland cyst recurrence rate.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the diagnostic value and safety of Thin Convex Probe Endobronchial Ultrasound (TCP-EBUS) Scope for peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPLs)
Retrospective studies suggested that the addition of thoracic concurrent chemoradiotherapy to systemic chemotherapy improved the survival and quality of life (QOL) of patients with metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). However, no prospective study had been conducted to confirm these findings. Recently, immunotherapy targeting the PD-1/PD-L1 checkpoints combined with chemotherapy had been proved to significantly prolong the survival of those patients compared with chemotherapy alone. Moreover, anti-PD-1 combined with radiotherapy exerts a synergistic anti-tumor effect, which may further improve the combination efficacy. This randomized, phase II study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the chemotherapy and anti-PD-1 combined with concurrent chemoradiotherapy to primary tumor versus systemic therapy alone in stage IVB ESCC. Of note, non-regional lymph node metastasis only was the stratification factor in the random assignment.
Neoadjuvant therapy is feasible in stage Ⅱ-Ⅲ melanoma, Carrelizumab combined with apatinib and temozolomide has synergistic antitumor effects and may improve pathological response.
The primary aim of this prospective, multicentre study is to determine whether the involved node can be marked using black carbon dye and successfully identified at the time of surgery. The secondary aims are to determine the concordance between the tattooed node and sentinel node, migration of black dye into other nodes, and false-negative rate of tattooed node (in patients undergoing ALND after NACT).
the aim of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of the various virtual articulator mounting procedures.
