NCT ID: NCT01754454 Enrolling by invitation - Acute GVH Disease Clinical Trials

Safety and Efficacy of UC-MSC in Patients With Acute Severe Graft-versus-host Disease

Start date: December 2012
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

Allogenic haemopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is the treatment for many malignant and non-malignant hematologic disorders. Acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) is a serious life-threatening complication after allo-HSCT. The outcome for patients with aGVHD is poor and overall survival is low. Acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), as the major complication of allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation(PBSCT), limits the application of this curative therapy. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent stem cells, which are able to modulate immune response in vitro and in vivo, and have possibilities of treating diseases caused by immune dysregulation such as aGVHD. MSCs obtained from umbilical cord (UC) have similar immunosuppressive properties as bone marrow-MSCs. In addition, UC-derived MSCs can be used for off-the-shelf use and are obtained without any harm to donors than bone marrow-MSCs. Therefore, the investigators designed this study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of UC-derived MSCs in patients with aGVHD.

Shensongyangxin Capsule in the Treatment of Sinus Bradycardia With Premature Ventricular Contractions

SS-SBVPT
Start date: August 2012
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of Chinese medicine Shansong Yangxin capsule for sinus bradycardia complicated with ventricular premature beats.

NCT ID: NCT01677806 Enrolling by invitation - Clinical trials for Acute Osteoporotic Spinal Fractures

Safety and Efficacy Study of Percutaneous Vertebroplasty for Painful Acute Osteoporotic Spine Fractures

Start date: October 2012
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) is now a therapeutic option for individuals for whom medical management has not been successful or for those who are at risk for developing complications due to long-term immobilization. Recently, three randomized controlled trials (RCT) concerning PVP have been published with conflicting results. Two RCTs with a sham control intervention failed to show an advantage of vertebroplasty over placebo for participants with acute, subacute, and chronic fractures or severe pain. In the third RCT, PVP compared to optimal conservative treatment showed significant immediate postoperative pain relief in the vertebroplasty group, but not at 3 and 12 months. To examine these issues, this study is initiated to compare PVP with conservative therapy in patients with osteoporotic VCFs. Moreover, this study addresses concerns about the possibility that PVP increases the incidence of new compression fractures in adjacent vertebrae.

NCT ID: NCT01637350 Enrolling by invitation - Gastric Cancer Clinical Trials

Digestive Tract Reconstruction After Gastrectomy of Gastric Cancer With Type 2 Diabetes

Start date: August 2012
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

Different digestive tract reconstruction will affect the blood glucose level of gastric cancer with type 2 diabetes. Subtotal gastrectomy with Billroth II reconstruction and total gastrectomy with Roux-en-Y reconstruction may help to improve glycaemic control which includes fasting blood glucose, postprandial blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, C -peptide and body weight of gastric cancer patients with type 2 diabetes.

NCT ID: NCT01618474 Enrolling by invitation - Stomach Cancer Clinical Trials

Trial of Adjuvant Chemotherapy for High Risk Gastric Cancer Patients

Start date: May 2012
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This trial is going to evaluate the efficacy and safety of two regimens of DX (docetaxel plus capecitabine)and XELOX (oxaliplatin plus capecitabine)as adjuvant chemotherapy for stage IIIb-IIIc gastric cancer patients after curative D2/D2+ operation, and to investigate the optimal adjuvant regimen for such extremely high risk patients.

NCT ID: NCT01563510 Enrolling by invitation - Biliary Stones Clinical Trials

Research of the Key Technology and Standardization of Minimal Invasive Treatment for Hepatolithiasis

Start date: January 2012
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this research is to investigate the key technology and the related issues of minimal invasive treatment for hepatolithiasis and to build new methods of minimal invasive operation for hepatolithiasis. The validity, feasibility and limitations of the laparoscopic operation were assessed objectively through our clinical prospective study. The technique points, indications and contraindications were summarized to evaluate the status and role of minimal invasive laparoscopic operation in the treatment of hepatolithiasis.

NCT ID: NCT01539460 Enrolling by invitation - Clinical trials for Sweat Gland Diseases

A Minimally Invasive Surgery for Axillary Osmidrosis: Combined Liposuction With Subcutaneous Pruning

Start date: February 2012
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Patients with axillary osmidrosis are treated with minimally invasive procedure combined tumescent liposuction with Subcutaneous Pruning. Effectiveness of this modified method in reducing odor is to be determined.

NCT ID: NCT01510470 Enrolling by invitation - Clinical trials for Malocclusion; Displaced or Missing Teeth

Clinical and Radiological Outcomes Study on Astra Tech Osseospeed Tx Profile Implant

Start date: January 2012
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The Astra Tech Osseospeed Profile Implant design when placed in the healed extraction site maintains the marginal bone level

NCT ID: NCT01494480 Enrolling by invitation - Clinical trials for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

The Clinical Trial on the Use of Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

Start date: March 2012
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

Patients with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) typically endure a progressive paralysis due to the continued loss of motoneurons that leads them to death in less than 5 years. No treatment has changed its natural history. Intrathecal injection of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells can secret trophic factors that keep the motorneurons functional. The investigators have designed a phase I/II clinical trial to check the feasibility of this approach in humans.

NCT ID: NCT01489566 Enrolling by invitation - Clinical trials for Hepatocellular,Carcinoma

Study of Tyroserleutide for Injection in Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) Patients

Start date: July 2011
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This is a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, multi-center Clinical Trial. Patients with no tumor lesions one month after resection of hepatocellular carcinoma will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to 1 of the 2 treatment groups:6mg/d Tyroserleutide (injection), or placebo. The objective is to evaluate the effect of Injectable Tyroserleutide on the recurrence-free survival,overall survival,quality of life,and the safety and tolerability of subjects after the resection of hepatocellular carcinoma
