NCT ID: NCT03376100 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Fracture Closed of Lower End of Forearm, Unspecified

Distal Nerve Blocks for Closed Reduction of Distal Forearm Fractures

Start date: December 1, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Randomized controlled trial comparing the standard haematoma block used for reduction of distal forearm fractures in the Emergency Department with ultrasound guided nerveblocks. The investigators hypothesize that ultrasound guided blocking of the radial and median nerves will improve fracture reduction satisfaction for the true Colles' fractures and improve analgesia for reduction of all distal forearm fracture types compared to the standard haematoma block.

NCT ID: NCT03363373 Recruiting - Neuroblastoma Clinical Trials

Naxitamab for High-Risk Neuroblastoma Patients With Primary Refractory Disease or Incomplete Response to Salvage Treatment in Bone and/or Bone Marrow

Start date: April 3, 2018
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

Children and adults diagnosed with high-risk neuroblastoma patients with primary refractory disease or incomplete response to salvage treatment in bone and/or bone marrow will be treated for up to 101 weeks with naxitamab and granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF). Patients will be followed for up to five years after first dose. Naxitamab, also known as hu3F8 is a humanised monoclonal antibody targeting GD2

NCT ID: NCT03340506 Recruiting - Melanoma Clinical Trials

Dabrafenib and/or Trametinib Rollover Study

Start date: December 28, 2017
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

This study is to provide access for patients who are receiving treatment with dabrafenib and/or trametinib in a Novartis-sponsored Oncology Global Development, Global Medical Affairs or a former GSK-sponsored study who have fulfilled the requirements for the primary objective, and who are judged by the investigator as benefiting from continued treatment in the parent study as judged by the Investigator at the completion of the parent study.

NCT ID: NCT03315546 Recruiting - Pediatric Cancer Clinical Trials

Radiotherapy Delivery in Deep Inspiration for Pediatric Patients

TEDDI
Start date: January 1, 2017
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

TEDDI is a non-randomised phase II trial in Scandinavia. All pediatric patients, referred for radiotherapy in the thorax or abdomen and irrespective of diagnosis, are eligible. Deep inspiration breath-hold (DIBH) is a simple radiotherapy technique, which could have a dramatic impact on the risk of late effects in children. In DIBH, the radiotherapy is delivered while the patient holds his/her breath (4-6 sequential breath-holds). The anatomy is changed and imaging artifacts from respiratory movement are diminished. DIBH is widely used in adult patients with breast cancer and mediastinal lymphoma to minimize the risk of radiation-induced late effects due to a reduced dose to the healthy organs. Also, the technique is simple and cost-efficient. For pediatric patients, the investigators aim to: - Estimate the dosimetric benefit of radiotherapy using DIBH compared to free-breathing - Establish the compliance of DIBH - Determine if DIBH is an accurate and reproducible strategy - Optimize treatment planning considering the risk from loss of tumour control as well as the risk of late effects.

NCT ID: NCT03313349 Recruiting - Clinical trials for ADHD - Combined Type

A School-Based Intervention to Improve Social Functioning

Start date: March 1, 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Evaluating interventions for children/adolescents with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a field that offers many challenges. Even though psychotherapeutic treatment for ADHD is recommended as the first choice in many countries(1), the evidence base for this is inconsistent and outcome specific (2). For instance, parent training may not have significant effects on the core Symptoms of ADHD (3). However, trials suggest that it facilitates skills in other areas. One area where it is of potential value is social functioning (4). The randomized controlled trial (RCT)described here will test the therapeutic value of a package of psychological interventions designed to target social functioning for children and adolescents with ADHD. It will be conducted in a special school environment designed specifically for children with severe behavioral problems. Therefore, routine provision is already substantial. As a result, it was not possible to include a "no intervention group" (control group) for ethical reasons. Therefore, the value of social skills intervention was examined by comparing different "doses" of the routine intervention by testing a usual provision (UP) group against an enriched/need-based (ENP) form of provision.

NCT ID: NCT03311776 Recruiting - Pancreatic Cancer Clinical Trials

BIOmarkers in Patients With Pancreatic Cancer ("BIOPAC")

BIOPAC
Start date: July 3, 2008
Phase:
Study type: Observational

No validated biomarkers to identify PC at an early stage and to predict treatment outcomes in the individual patient exist. The objective of the present study is to find diagnostic, prognostic and predictive biomarkers.

NCT ID: NCT03309423 Recruiting - Sepsis Clinical Trials

Is Venous to Arterial Conversion (v-TAC) of Blood Gas Reliable in Critical Ill Patients in the ICU?

Start date: October 9, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

Objective: Arterial blood gas (ABG) is essential in the clinical assessment of potential acutely ill patients venous to arterial conversion (v-TAC), a mathematical method, has recently been developed to convert peripheral venous blood gas (VBG) values to arterialized VBG (aVBG) values. The aim of this study is to test the reliability of aVBG compared to ABG in an intensive care unit (ICU) setting. Method: Consecutive patients admitted to the ICU with pH values <7,35 or >7,45 are included in this study. Paired ABG and aVBG samples are drawn from patients via arterial catheter, central venous catheter and/or peripheral venous catheter and compared.

NCT ID: NCT03308916 Recruiting - Fibrosis Clinical Trials

Screening At-risk Populations for Hepatic Fibrosis With Non-invasive Markers

SIPHON
Start date: October 6, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Prospective screening study at Odense University Hospital to assess the effect of transient elastography and other serum and imaging markers of liver fibrosis to detect advanced fibrosis (Kleiner Fibrosis score F3-F4) in patients at risk of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, alcoholic fatty liver disease, with a control group of participants recruited from the general population.

NCT ID: NCT03305263 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Recurrent Pregnancy Loss

Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) for Recurrent Pregnancy Loss

Start date: January 25, 2018
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) defined as 3 or more pregnancy losses affects approximately 3% of couples trying to achieve parenthood. Most cases of RPL are unexplained and have no effective treatment to improve the chance of a live birth. Exciting indications for using Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) include: Malaria profylaxis and treatment, systemic and discoid lupus erythematosus (SLE) and rheumatoid athritis (RA). HCQ has been reported to have the following properties (anti-thrombotic, vascular-protective, immunomodulatory, improving glucose tolerance, lipid-lowering, and anti-infectious). There is no data concerning the benefit of HCQ in RPL. Administration for other indications provides extensive safety data during pregnancy. This study has the potential to establish support for a new treatment option for unexplained RPL.

NCT ID: NCT03289949 Recruiting - Basic Science Clinical Trials

The Neurobiological Effect of 5-HT2AR Modulation

NeuroPharm2
Start date: March 3, 2017
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

The investigators wish to investigate neurobiological effects of serotonin 2A receptor modulation in healthy volunteers, contrasting effects of an agonist (psilocybin) and an antagonist (ketanserin). Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission tomography (PET) will be used as neuroimaging tools.
