There are about 9745 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Israel. 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.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of mRNA 1647 vaccine in CMV-seronegative female participants and to evaluate the safety and reactogenicity of mRNA-1647 vaccine in all participants. The purpose of the Phase 3 extension sub study is to extend the observation period of the main study and to evaluate the longer-term immune persistence of mRNA-1647 vaccine administered to CMV-seronegative females who complete mRNA-1647-P301 main study and to assess for CMV seroconversion in CMV-seronegative participants who did not seroconvert during mRNA-1647-P301 main study. No interventional vaccine will be administered in the extension study.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of the combined meningococcal groups A, B, C, W and Y (MenABCWY-2Gen) vaccine intended to protect against invasive meningococcal disease (IMD) caused by all 5 meningococcal serogroups, in healthy infants 2 months of age (MoA) at enrolment.
Atopic dermatitis (AD; also known as atopic eczema) is an inflammatory skin disease. The safety and effectiveness of upadacitinib for AD has been well-documented in previous studies, however, important information is missing on the use patterns and outcomes with upadacitinib in a real-world setting. Therefore, the purpose of this observational study is to help inform real-world usage patterns regarding the safety and effectiveness and duration of response of upadacitinib in adolescent and adult AD participants >=12 years old in the real-world setting. Upadacitinib is an approved drug being developed for the treatment of AD. Around 975 adolescent and adult participants who are prescribed upadacitinib for the treatment of AD in routine clinical practice will be enrolled worldwide. Participants will receive oral upadacitinib as prescribed by their physician. Data from these participants will be collected for approximately 2 years. There will be no additional burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the course of the study at a hospital or clinic and will be asked to provide additional information by questionnaire at each visit.
The prevalence of food allergy in the western world is a growing health problem. The majority of reactions are caused due to oral exposure to the known food allergen. However, there are reports about allergic symptoms after exposure to the allergenic food by contact and/ or inhalation. Most of those reports are subjective without an objective report of healthcare professionals. There are only a few prospective studies that observed objectively the "reliability" of those subjective reports. The estimated chance for systemic allergic reaction due to skin prick test with fresh food is 0.008%, and even then it will not cause anaphylaxis that will need epinephrine use. That evidence is in concordance with our experience. Even with all the information gathered, a study that examines the chance of systemic reaction after skin contact with the allergenic food is still missing. Additionally, lately, researchers start to examine the influence of food allergy on the quality of life (QOL) of allergic children and their parents. As expected, all studies show negative effects on QOL. The major concern of the parents is from random exposure and severe allergic reaction due to contact with the allergenic food. As far as the investigators know, no study examined the influence of supervised contact with allergenic food on the fear of the child and his parents. The study aims to evaluate the risk for a systemic allergic reaction after skin exposure to allergenic food in children with known food allergy.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of olezarsen as compared to placebo on the percent change in fasting triglycerides (TG) from baseline.
The goal of this clinical study is to compare the study drugs, magrolimab + venetoclax + azacitidine, versus placebo + venetoclax + azacitidine in participants with untreated acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are not able to have chemotherapy.
Background: Despite a favorable prognosis, metastatic cervical lymph nodes (LN), are not uncommon among patients with differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC). Current guidelines recommend that a suspicious cervical LN on neck ultrasound (US) should be investigated with fine needle aspiration biopsy for cytology (FNAC) and for thyroglobulin (Tg) measurement (FNA-Tg), using saline washout of the needle content. Since Tg is a protein produced exclusively by thyroid follicular cells, a positive FNA-Tg result establishes the diagnosis of metastatic DTC. Currently, following LN biopsy, a patient must wait days to weeks to receive results, that directly impacts the treatment plan. This delay may be solved by a point of care assay of the washout Tg (POC-Tg), drawn from a suspicious cervical LN. Another potential novel usage of POC-Tg is the evaluation of suspicious LN found during neck surgery for known or suspicious DTC. Here, the POC-Tg may save the time needed for the completion of 'frozen section'. The study product: POC-Tg is a lateral flow immunoassay for Tg, able to detect within minutes Tg at concentration equal to 5 ng/mL and above (the midrange of the accepted cut-off). Methods: The multi-center validation study will include 100 patients in the FNA clinic, and 150 LN (dissected from 50-150 patients) in the operating room (OR). Each LN will be evaluated using both the formal accepted method (in the FNA clinic, the combination of FNAC and FNA-Tg; and frozen section in the OR), and the novel POC-Tg. Clinical decisions will be made according to the formal evaluation only. In a retrospective analysis, the investigators will estimate the sensitivity and specificity of the POC-Tg and the formal accepted method against the reference ('gold') standard (cytology, histology and follow-up US in the FNA clinic setting, and final histology in the OR setting).
An Eye-Tracking-Based Binocular Amblyopia Technology Improves Both Visual Acuity and Binocularity Screening A child is considered for the study after undergoing a standard of care and study-specific eye examinations (by a study investigator as part of the standard of care) that identify amblyopia appearing to meet the eligibility criteria. The study will be discussed with the child's parent(s) or guardian(s) (referred to subsequently as parent (s)). Parent(s) who express an interest in the study will be given a copy of the informed consent form to read. Written informed consent must be obtained from a parent and child prior to performing any study-specific procedures that are not part of the child's routine care. On screening visit, eligibility assessment, medical history, Demographic data, Refraction and Cycloplegia, Demonstration suitability using the CureSight, ATS Diplopia Questionnaire, Symptom Survey Distance VA Testing, Ocular Alignment Testing, Near VA Testing, Stereoacuity Testing- Titmus Fly, Eye movement exams (optional), Contrast sensitivity (optional), Reading rest (optional). All eligible subjects enrolled in the study will be followed for 24 weeks of training followed by 52 weeks of follow-up. 24 weeks: Binocular treatment 90 minutes per day, 5 days per week for 12 weeks followed by 90 minutes per day, 3 days per week for an additional 12 weeks Follow up visits - Visit 1: 4 weeks ± 1 week - Visit 2: 8 weeks ± 1 week - Visit 3: 12 weeks ± 1 week - Visit 4: 24 weeks ± 1 week (primary endpoint) - Optional Visit 5: 52 weeks ± 1 week (exploratory outcome, including retainment of improvement; and additional exploratory outcomes)
The fungus Pneumocystis jirovecii is responsible for pneumocystosis (PcP), a life threatening pneumonia in patients undergoing HSCT. The spontaneous attack rate of 16% within the first 6 months following allogeneic HSCT reported in the 1980's has considerably decreased with prophylaxis. However, PcP still remains a concern in the transplant ward with an incidence rate up to 2.5% in allo- and 1.4% in autologous HSCT but up to 7.2% on low dose of Dapsone. The mortality of PcP is especially high in HSCT recipients. One of the main factors of PcP after HSCT seems to be either the lack of TMP-SMX prophylaxis (all the other prophylactic drugs being inferior to TMP-SMX), or poor compliance to prophylaxis. Due to the rarity of the disease after HSCT, it is impossible to study it in monocenter studies, except on very long periods of time which may not reflect current practice. Several questions deserve investigations in a multicenter study, about timing, risk factors, and outcome. Moreover, some European laboratories involved in the diagnosis of PcP have already given up to classical diagnostic methods and switched to qPCR. This implies that lower fungal burden can be detected and the clinical pertinence of such a diagnostic strategy deserves to be assessed.
