This study investigates renal functional reserve in elderly.
The purpose of this Phase III study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tozorakimab Dose 1 and Dose 2 administered subcutaneously (SC) in adult participants with symptomatic COPD and history of ≥ 2 moderate or ≥ 1 severe exacerbation of COPD in the previous 12 months. Participants should be receiving optimised treatment with maintenance inhaled therapy (ICS/LABA/LAMA triple therapy, or dual therapy if triple is not considered appropriate) in stable doses throughout at least 3 months prior to enrolment.
This study aims to 1) determine the immediate effects of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on corticospinal excitability, lumbar multifidus muscle (LM) activation, as well as lumbar stability in patients with chronic low back pain (CLBP), 2) determine the immediate effects of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) on corticospinal excitability, LM activation, as well as lumbar stability in patients with CLBP, 3) compare the effectiveness of 6-week intervention program among tDCS priming with motor control exercise (MCE), NMES priming with MCE, and MCE alone in patients with CLBP, and 4) determine the associations among corticospinal excitability, LM activation, lumbar stability, movement patterns, and clinical outcomes in patients with CLBP.
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infections are rapidly spreading worldwide and continue to be a global public health crisis. The use of repurposed drugs with the potential to inhibit SARS-CoV-2 could be a vital alternative approach when the novel therapeutic has not yet available. The guidelines for emergency treatment of COVID-19 vary across different countries and largely rely on the off-label prescription of repurposed drugs. As a result, clinical studies to generate robust efficacy data for these repurposed drugs are warranted to effectively fight against the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The broad spectrum antiparasitic drug ivermectin has previously been shown to exhibit broad antiviral activities against many RNA and DNA viruses. It has a reliable safety profile with comprehensive data for decades especially in mass drug administration programs for river blindness prophylaxis in several countries in Africa. Owing to its strong inhibitory activity against the replication of SARS-CoV-2 in vitro and its putative role in reducing cytokine storm, the drug has been repurposed to treat COVID-19 patients and has shown promising results in several clinical studies. Ivermectin has thus gained a considerable attention as a potential treatment for COVID-19. However, the National Institute of Health (NIH) and World Health Organization (WHO) currently state that studies on using ivermectin to treat COVID-19 patients remain inconclusive due to insufficient data. Therefore, a large well designed randomized, double blinded, placebo-controlled trial to assess the efficacy of ivermectin is urgently needed. Another important treatment option for COVID-19 is favipiravir, an antiviral drug for influenza treatment. Although the drug has not been approved for a COVID-19 treatment by the US-FDA, it has been included in Guidelines on clinical practice, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of healthcare-associated infection for COVID-19 in Thailand. Favipiravir, a known inhibitor of RNA-dependent RNA polymerase, was shown to have an in vitro activity against SARS-CoV-2. The meta-analysis showed a significant improvement in clinical outcome at day 14 along with chest imaging in the favipiravir group compared to standard care. However, there are no significant differences in terms of clinical deterioration rates, viral clearance, oxygen support requirement and side effect profiles. There are still ongoing clinical trials assessing the effectiveness of favipiravir in the treatment of COVID-19. Antivirals can be generally divided into direct-acting antivirals (DAA) and host-targeting drugs. For example, the widely used drug remdesivir repurposed to treat COVID-19 is a DAA, and chloroquine is considered a host-targeting drug. Because these repurposed drugs were not specifically designed and developed for COVID-19, they are likely to be less efficacious, and partner drugs need to be further explored. Finding a right combination for DAA is a common practice for developing virus treatment regimens. Relying on different modes of action and absence of unfavorable drug interaction, the combinations are usually additive or synergistic. It is important to note that our in vitro data demonstrated the synergistic profile for the combination of favipiravir and ivermectin against SARS-CoV-2. It resulted in 4-fold reduction in the half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) as compared to individual drugs, from 1.2 µM to 0.3 µM with a peak Loewe synergy score of over 33.2 and a mean score of 18.8 (noted that Loewe synergy score > 10 indicates synergistic effect). In response to this COVID-19 pandemic crisis, especially in a resource limited setting like Thailand, clinical studies to evaluate affordable and implementable interventions are a priority and are urgently needed. Ivermectin, a cheap and safe drug, has been widely used in humans for decades, and it has also demonstrated an inhibitory effect against SARS-CoV-2 in vitro. Here, we aim to conduct a multi-center, double-blind, randomized controlled trial in Thailand to reveal the effectiveness of ivermectin as a combination therapy with favipiravir (standard treatment) for COVID-19. The results of this study will provide much needed information for pursuing larger efficacy clinical trials to confirm whether the combination could be effectively used to treat COVID-19. Also, they could provide information on the rate of viral clearance, the primary endpoint of this study, which was proposed to be a predictive surrogate of clinical benefits and used as a proper endpoint in the phase II trials for candidate drug screening for COVID-19.
This is an observational, prospective primary data collection study. The duration of observation is 2 years after study enrolment date. Disease and treatment history will be retrospectively reviewed from medical record at enrollment with no time limits for the key diagnosis of enrolment (plaque psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis and non-radiographic axial spondyloarthropathy).
IMPAACT 2028 is an observational prospective study to characterize a cohort of early treated children who may participate in future research related to HIV remission or cure. Up to approximately 250 participants will be in the study for approximately seven years. No intervention is provided in the study.
This study is being done to find out if zanidatamab, when given with chemotherapy plus or minus tislelizumab, is safe and works better than trastuzumab given with chemotherapy. The patients in this study will have advanced human epidermal growth factor 2 (HER2)-positive stomach and esophageal cancers that are no longer treatable with surgery (unresectable) or chemoradiation, and/or have grown or spread to other parts of the body (metastatic).
The study is a randomized controlled trial. The participants will be equally allocated into 2 groups to compare clinical effectiveness of curcumin mouthwash in fixed orthodontic patients during the first month of treatment.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate zilovertamab vedotin with respect to objective response rate and duration of response per Lugano Response Criteria as assessed by blinded independent central review (BICR). Safety and tolerability will also be evaluated in this Phase 2, single arm, interventional study.
