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 aims to assess the impact of adding olanzapine to nutritional advice and standard anti-tumor therapy on the survival and safety of patients with locally advanced, unresectable or metastatic gastric cancer, esophageal cancer, hepato-pancreaticobiliary cancer, and lung cancer. Researchers seek to determine whether olanzapine can improve progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and objective response rate (ORR) in advanced cancer patients who received standard anti-tumor therapy, and investigate the relationship between olanzapine-induced weight changes and patient survival.
Sleep disorder is common in ICU patients, such as reduced sleep time, fragmentation, and abnormal sleep rhythm. In 2023, American Thoracic Society released a research statement on sleep and circadian disruption(SCD) in ICU, which considered SCD is an important potential target for improving critical illness outcomes. Although polysomnography(PSG) is the gold standard of sleep measurement, subjective sleep evaluation tools are still used in most clinical studies related to sleep in ICU. This makes the sleep quality of ICU patients overestimated and difficult to reflect their true sleep conditions. And the answers to how and which outcomes different levels of sleep deprivation affect patient outcomes are still unclear and need to be further explored.
The association between Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) and Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is well established. Traditional risk factors for CVD and CKD are similar, with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) being the most prevalent risk factor. However, CKD is underdiagnosed and undertreated in patients with CVD. Further understanding of the combination of CKD in CVD patients is important to formulate prevention and treatment strategies for CVD patients and high-risk groups, reduce adverse events in CVD patients, and prevent progression of CKD to End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD).
The purpose of this study is to explore the mechanism of cognitive impairment in patients with symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS), and further plans to explore the impact of different treatment options on cognitive function in symptomatic ICAS patients.
This study is a single-arm Phase II clinical trial aiming to evaluate the safety and efficacy of HAIC combined with Cadonilimab and Regorafenib as second-line treatment for unresectable intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. The study plans to enroll approximately 45 participants. All enrolled participants will receive continuous treatment: HAIC-Gemox: Gemcitabine 1000mg/m2 on Day 1 + Oxaliplatin 85mg/m2 on Day 1, every 3 weeks (Q3W), for up to 6 treatment cycles, Cadonilimab(6mg/kg, D2, Q3W) and Regorafenib (80mg QD, Q3W) until the investigator determines that there is no longer any clinical benefit (based on comprehensive assessment including RECIST v1.1 imaging evaluation and clinical condition), intolerable toxicity, initiation of new anti-tumor therapy, or meeting other criteria for treatment discontinuation, whichever occurs first.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the effects of social isolation and social interaction on the risk of dementia progression and brain function in SCD 1. To explore the association between social isolation and lonely SCD populations and the occurrence and progression of MCI and AD through cross-sectional studies, cohort studies and randomized controlled trials of SCD; 2. To clarify the correlation between different carrier states, resting brain function connectivity characteristics, and dual-task walking ability of APOEε4 allele and the progression of SCD to MCI and AD during the cognitive progress of people with SCD affected by social isolation; 3. Establish a predictive model of cognitive decline from SCD to MCI and AD, and apply it to the SCD population to carry out individualized interventions; 4. Confirm the protective effect of social interaction on cognitive level and brain function in SCD patients.
Hypofractionated radiation therapy is a new type of radiotherapy which has been shown to play a larger role in the treatment of prostate cancer. The aims of the trial were to evaluate the safety and feasibility of adjuvant hypofractionated radiotherapy following radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer.
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common malignancy and the second leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Colonoscopy is considered the preferred method of screening for colorectal cancer, and resection of colorectal lesions can significantly reduce the incidence and mortality of colorectal cancer. In order to improve the qualitative and quantitative diagnosis of colorectal lesions, many endoscopic techniques, such as image-enhanced endoscopy (IEE), including narrowband imaging (NBI), magnifying endoscopy, pigment endoscopy, confocal laser endoscopy, and endocytoscopy (EC) are applied clinically. However, with the increasing number of endoscopic resection, the costs associated with the pathological diagnosis of endoscopic resection and resection specimens increase year by year. In clinical practice, some non-neoplastic colorectal lesions may not require resection, so it is important to distinguish neoplastic from non-neoplastic during colonoscopy. The application of EC is intended to achieve the purpose of real-time histopathological endoscopic diagnosis without biopsy. Several studies have shown that EC is effective in identifying the nature of colorectal lesions and judging the depth of invasion in CRC. Based on the endoscopic diagnosis, the endoscopist can determine the treatment plan for the colorectal lesions. The latest EC is an integrated endoscope with a contact light microscopy system with a maximum magnification of 520 x. EC can demonstrate the atypical of gland structure and cells after staining and display the super-amplified surface microvessels of the lesion under the EC-NBI mode. However, the judgment of endocytoscopic images needs a lot of experience to improve the diagnostic accuracy. Moreover, endoscopists have certain subjective judgments and errors in endocytoscopic diagnosis. There is an artificial intelligence system which has been developed to identify colorectal neoplasms. However, there is still a lack of prospective clinical verification based on Chinese population. In the study, the investigators performed a prospective clinical study to determine the diagnostic accuracy of artificial intelligence system.
This study aims to conduct a large-sample randomized controlled clinical trial, using traditional CT-guided thoracic puncture localization as a comparison, to explore the accuracy, safety and clinical advantages of Intelligent AR glasses in assisting preoperative localizing of small pulmonary nodules.
With the aging of population and the change of lifestyle, the prevalence of prediabetes is increasing year by year. Nutritional factors are one of the important environmental factors in the occurrence and development of abnormal glucose metabolism. The medical nutritional treatment of diabetes is recommended as the cornerstone of diabetes treatment by various guidelines. With the development of nutrigenomics, it has been found that genes related to the absorption, metabolism, distribution and excretion of various nutrients are related to diabetes. This study intends to conduct precision nutrition intervention for prediabetic patients based on nutritional genes, and evaluate the effectiveness and safety of these nutritional interventions.
