NCT ID: NCT03820115 Completed - Gynecologic Disease Clinical Trials

Elastic Abdominal Binder After Open Abdominal Surgery for Benign Gynecologic Conditions

Start date: October 1, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Surgery remains the backbone of modern management of benign gynecologic conditions. Some common surgical procedures include hysterectomy for uterine leiomyoma or adenomyosis, adnexectomy for ovarian and tubal pathology, and other conservative surgeries. These procedures can be accomplished by different surgical approaches comprising abdominal, vaginal, and laparoscopic routes. Although the use of vaginal and laparoscopic approach has increased in recent years, the open abdominal route is still the most commonly employed approach. This is especially the case in developing countries where resources to support the more expensive approach such as laparoscopy are quite limited. However, the procedure can be associated with significant morbidity. Delayed functional recovery influenced by pain and immobilization are important contributing factors for increased morbidity. Elastic abdominal binder, a wide elastic belt that is wore around the patient's abdomen to support surgical incision after surgery, has been employed by clinicians for pain relief, wound complications prevention, improved pulmonary function, and stabilization. Benefits of the abdominal binder use in this patient population have not been properly examined. The aim of this study is to examine the effect of postoperative elastic abdominal binder use on recovery by comparing pain scores and mobility function (through the 6-minute walk test [6MWT]) in postoperative gynecologic patients who use versus do not use the elastic abdominal binder to support incisional site.

NCT ID: NCT03819465 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)

A Study of Novel Anti-cancer Agents in Patients With Previously Untreated NSCLC

MAGELLAN
Start date: December 27, 2018

NCT ID: NCT03819153 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

A Research Study to See How Semaglutide Works Compared to Placebo in People With Type 2 Diabetes and Chronic Kidney Disease

FLOW
Start date: June 17, 2019
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The researchers are doing this study to see if semaglutide can slow down the growth and worsening of chronic kidney disease in people with type 2 diabetes. Participants will get semaglutide (active medicine) or placebo ('dummy medicine'). This is known as participants' study medicine - which treatment participants get is decided by chance. Semaglutide is a medicine, doctors can prescribe in some countries for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. Participants will get the study medicine in a pen. Participants will use the pen to inject the medicine in a skin fold once a week. The study will close when there is enough information collected to show clear result of the study. The total time participants will be in this study is about 3 to 5 years, but it could be longer.

NCT ID: NCT03819114 Completed - HIV Infections Clinical Trials

Pharmacokinetic Study to Evaluate Double-Dose Levonorgestrel Emergency Contraception in Combination With Efavirenz-Based Antiretroviral Therapy or Rifampicin-Containing Anti-Tuberculosis Therapy

Start date: May 6, 2019
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this pharmacokinetic (PK) study was to evaluate if a double dose (3 mg) of levonorgestrel (LNG) overcomes known drug-drug interactions (DDIs) with efavirenz (EFV)-based antiretroviral therapy (ART) or rifampicin (RIF)-containing tuberculosis (TB) therapy. The safety of double-dose (3.0 mg) LNG versus standard-dose (1.5 mg) was also compared.

NCT ID: NCT03818633 Completed - Gynecologic Cancer Clinical Trials

Elastic Abdominal Binder Following Gynecologic Cancer Surgery

Start date: April 24, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Surgery is the primary treatment for gynecologic malignancies. The surgical approach provides opportunities for removal of the affected organs and complete assessment of extent of cancer spread. However, the procedures are often associated with significant morbidity. This is especially true with open laparotomy, the most frequently employed approach in developing countries. Delayed functional recovery influenced by pain and immobilization are important contributing factors for increased morbidity. Elastic abdominal binder, a wide elastic belt that is wore around the patient's abdomen to support surgical incision after surgery, has been employed by clinicians for pain relief, wound complications prevention, improved pulmonary function, and stabilization. Benefits of the abdominal binder use in this patient population have not been properly examined. The aim of this study is to examine the effect of postoperative elastic abdominal binder use on recovery by comparing pain scores and mobility function (through the 6-minute walk test [6MWT]) in postoperative gynecologic cancer patients who use versus do not use the elastic abdominal binder to support incisional site.

NCT ID: NCT03815643 Active, not recruiting - Solid Tumors Clinical Trials

Avelumab Program Rollover Study

Start date: March 22, 2019
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The main purpose of this study is to monitor the safety and tolerability of avelumab in participants with solid tumors who continue treatment with avelumab under the same treatment regimen as in the parent avelumab study.

NCT ID: NCT03814343 Completed - Onychomycosis Clinical Trials

Topical Amphotericin B in 30% Dimethylsulphoxide in Treating of Non-dermatophytes Onychomycosis

amphotericin
Start date: January 15, 2019
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

The randomized control trial study aimed to evaluate effectiveness and safety of amphotericin B in 30% DMSO solution comparing with 30% DMSO solution in NDMs onychomycosis treatment.

NCT ID: NCT03811535 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Growth Hormone Deficiency in Children

A Research Study in Children With a Low Level of Hormone to Grow. Treatment is Somapacitan Once a Week Compared to Norditropin® Once a Day (REAL4)

REAL4
Start date: May 20, 2019
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The study compares 2 medicines for children who do not have enough hormone to grow: somapacitan given once a week (a new medicine) and Norditropin® given once a day (the medicine doctors can already prescribe). Researchers will test to see how well somapacitan works. The study will also test if somapacitan is safe. Participants will either get somapacitan or Norditropin® - which treatment participants get, is decided by chance. Both participants and the study doctor will know which treatment participants get. The study will last for 4 years. Participants will attend 19 clinic visits and have 1 phone call with the study doctor.

NCT ID: NCT03810313 Terminated - Clinical trials for Central Retinal Vein Occlusion

Assessing the Efficacy and Safety of Brolucizumab Versus Aflibercept in Patients With Visual Impairment Due to Macular Edema Secondary to Central Retinal Vein Occlusion

RAVEN
Start date: July 3, 2019
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of brolucizumab in treatment of patients with macular edema (ME) secondary to central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO).

NCT ID: NCT03805620 Completed - Clinical trials for Mild Cognitive Impairment

Effects of Combined Physical-cognitive Training on Cognitive Function in MCI

Start date: March 18, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The present study aims to investigate the effects of combined physical-cognitive training on cognitive function as well as peripheral BDNF level and mitochondrial function of individuals with MCI. It is hypothesized that: 1) the combined physical-cognitive training program will be superior to the physical and cognitive training program alone; and 2) the degree of cognitive improvement will be positively correlated with the improvement of plasma BDNF and mitochondrial function.
