Start date: October 24, 2018

NCT ID: NCT03608423 Completed - Clinical trials for Intracerebral Hemorrhage

Dutch Intracerebral Hemorrhage Surgery Trial Pilot Study

DIST pilot
Start date: December 3, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Background: Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) accounts for 15-20% of all strokes in Western Europe, and contributes profoundly to mortality and disability. Thirty day case fatality is 40% and of those surviving, only few gain independence. Except for stroke unit care and early blood pressure lowering there is currently no treatment of proven benefit. Important predictors of poor outcome are increasing age, decreasing Glasgow Coma Scale score, increasing ICH volume, presence of intraventricular hemorrhage and deep or infratentorial location. In addition, secondary injury due to development of edema and inflammatory response, contribute to disability and death. Surgical treatment, mostly comprising craniotomy, has so far not been proven effective. In the largest trials STICH and STICH II, the median time to treatment was more than 24 hours, which may be an important explanation for the lack of treatment effect. The investigators hypothesize that early, minimally-invasive, endoscopy-guided surgery improves outcome in patients with spontaneous supratentorial ICH. Objective: to study safety, feasibility and technical effectiveness of minimally-invasive endoscopy guided surgery for treatment of spontaneous supratentorial ICH and to estimate the potential effect on outcome. Study design: a multicenter, prospective intervention study (phase II) with a telephonic follow up interview at 90 and 180 days.The pilot study serves as a prelude to a randomized phase III trial in which the investigators aim to assess whether this intervention improves functional outcome at 90 and 180 days. Study population: patients with spontaneous supratentorial ICH of 18 years and older. Forty patients in three participating centers (Radboudumc, Erasmus MC and AMC) will undergo minimally-invasive endoscopy-guided surgery. Three-hundred-and-sixty patients undergoing standard medical treatment in one of 7 other participating centers, will be included as a control group. Intervention: minimally-invasive endoscopy-guided surgery within 8 hours of symptom onset, in addition to standard medical management. Primary study outcomes: safety (death within 24 hours, 7-day procedure related complications, 7-day mortality, 30-day mortality) and technical effectiveness (proportional volume reduction, proportion of participants with volume reduction > 60 and >80%, and proportion with remaining clot volume <15mL). Secondary outcomes: modified Rankin Scale score at 90 and 180 days after ICH (functional outcome).

NCT ID: NCT03607903 Completed - Pain Clinical Trials

Adalimumab Microneedles in Healthy Volunteers

Start date: July 11, 2018
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

Adalimumab (Humira, AbbVie) is a highly effective treatment for a variety of auto-immune/auto-inflammatory diseases including juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). Adalimumab works by binding to tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF), hereby preventing its interaction with the TNF receptor. In the presence of complement, adalimumab can also lyse TNF-expressing cells. Adalimumab is administered via subcutaneous injection, which has the major drawback of being perceived as unpleasant and painful, especially during long term use for both adults and children. As subcutaneous administration may therefore eventually jeopardize treatment adherence, there is a clear need for less invasive alternatives to administer highly effective biological drugs such as adalimumab. Microneedles may be a potential alternative for invasive drug administration. Microneedles are currently widely investigated for the administration of various vaccines. The experience with administration of biological drugs is rather limited. The sparse available data suggests similar pharmacokinetics of adalimumab when administered either subcutaneous or intradermal in healthy volunteers. Moreover, the first studies report good tolerability of microneedles. However, no systematic studies have been performed yet i) to investigate pain, acceptability, and local tolerability for intradermal versus subcutaneous adalimumab administration ii) to evaluate safety, PK and immunogenicity for intradermal versus subcutaneous adalimumab and iii) to explore the usability of optical coherence tomography, clinical photography, thermal imaging and laser speckle contrast imaging in the evaluation of intradermal injections. This study will directly compare the pain perception and hence acceptability of a single dose (40 mg) of adalimumab administered subcutaneously (SC) versus intradermally (ID) via microneedles in healthy adult volunteers. Furthermore, the pharmacokinetic profile, pharmacodynamics, the immunogenicity and the tolerability will be assessed. This study will enable bridging to a future study in children and adolescents with JIA, in which the suitability of microneedles for the administration of adalimumab in pediatric patients will be examined. The overarching aim of these studies is to make administration of biologicals in children as pain free as possible.

NCT ID: NCT03604445 Terminated - Neoplasms Clinical Trials

This Study Aims to Find and Test a Safe Dose of BI 905677 in Patients With Different Types of Cancer (Solid Tumours)

Start date: August 8, 2018
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This study is open to adults with different types of advanced cancer (solid tumours). This study is open to people in whom previous treatments were not successful. The purpose of this study is to find out the highest dose of BI 905677 the participants can tolerate. BI 905677 is a type of an antibody that is being developed to treat cancer. One dose of BI 905677 is given to the participants every 2 or 3 weeks as infusion into a vein. In this study, BI 905677 is given to humans for the first time. The participants visit the study site at least once a week so that the doctors can check their general health. The participants are in the study for as long as they benefit from and can tolerate treatment.

Start date: May 7, 2018
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This is an open-label extension study to evaluate the long-term safety of relacorilant in patients with endogenous Cushing syndrome who successfully completed participation in a Corcept-sponsored study of relacorilant and may benefit from continuing treatment.

NCT ID: NCT03602859 Active, not recruiting - Ovarian Neoplasms Clinical Trials

A Comparison of Platinum-based Therapy With TSR-042 and Niraparib Versus Standard of Care (SOC) Platinum-based Therapy as First-line Treatment of Stage III or IV Nonmucinous Epithelial Ovarian Cancer

FIRST
Start date: October 11, 2018
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Ovarian cancer is a heterogeneous disease, characterized by complex molecular and genetic changes. The high expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor, programmed death receptor ligands 1 (PD-L1) expression, and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) damage in ovarian tumors provide several targets for treatment and maintenance of disease response. Given the unmet medical need of participants with advanced or metastatic ovarian cancer, this study design will enable investigators to provide participants with current SOC for ovarian cancer for the duration of the study. This is a global, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, controlled Phase 3 study that will primarily compare the progression-free survival (PFS) for participants receiving dostarlimab with SOC chemotherapy +/- bevacizumab followed by niraparib and dostarlimab maintenance +/- bevacizumab versus participants receiving SOC with chemotherapy followed by niraparib maintenance. This comparison will be investigated both in the PD-L1 positive and overall population of newly diagnosed stage III or IV advanced non-mucinous epithelial ovarian cancer participants and also to compare PFS of all participants with Stage III or IV high-grade non-mucinous epithelial ovarian cancer treated with platinum-based combination therapy, dostarlimab (TSR-042), and niraparib to SOC platinum-based combination therapy. The currently recommended SOC therapy for the first line treatment of Stage III or IV ovarian cancer is the combination of paclitaxel and carboplatin, with or without concurrent and maintenance bevacizumab. Participants will receive SOC during the chemotherapy Run-In period (cycle 1) before randomization to study treatment (cycle 2). Concurrent bevacizumab use must be determined prior to randomization at cycle 2.
