There are about 10438 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Taiwan. 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.
Due to the fact that majority of breast cancers are estrogen-receptor and/or progesterone receptor positive, tamoxifen and aromatase inhibitors (AIs) are among the mainstay therapies to treat breast cancer. Prior clinical studies of tamoxifen suggested that up to 80 % of patients experienced hot flashes during therapy with tamoxifen, and 30 % defined their symptoms as severe. Despite the high efficacy of tamoxifen, the harmful side effects have been identified in previous studies as a significant reason for not persisting with the treatment in 16 - 30 % of breast cancer patients. The primary purpose of this study is to determine if RCN3028 is effective and safe in the treatment of moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms associated. In accordance with the latest FDA guidance study participants will have a minimum of 7 moderate to sever hot flashes per day, or 50 per week at baseline.
Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people with atrial fibrillation and prevent stroke or systemic embolism (blood clots travelling through the blood stream to plug another vessel). Atrial fibrillation is a condition of having irregular and often rapid heartbeat. It can lead to the formation of blood clots in the heart which can travel through the blood stream to plug another vessel, and like this lead to serious and life-threatening conditions, such as a stroke. A stroke occurs because the brain tissue beyond the blockage no longer receives nutrients and oxygen so that brain cells die. As strokes arising from atrial fibrillation can involve extensive areas of the brain, it is important to prevent them. Blood clots are formed in a process known as coagulation. Medications are already available to prevent the formation of blood clots. When taken by mouth (orally), they are known as oral anticoagulants (OACs) including apixaban. OACs decrease the risk of the above-mentioned serious and life-threatening conditions. The main side effect of OACs is an increase of the risk of bleeding. The study treatment asundexian is a new type of anticoagulant currently under development to provide further treatment options. Asundexian aims to further improve the standard of care with regard to the risk of bleeding. The main purpose of this study is to collect more data about how well asundexian works to prevent stroke and systemic embolism and how safe it is compared to apixaban in people with atrial fibrillation and at high risk for stroke. To see how well the study treatment asundexian works researchers compare: - how long asundexian works well and - how long apixaban works well after the start of the treatment. Working well means that the treatments can prevent the following from happening: - stroke and/or - systemic embolism. The study will keep collecting data until a certain number of strokes or embolisms happen in the study. To see how safe asundexian is, the researchers will compare how often major bleedings occur after taking the study treatments asundexian and apixaban, respectively. Major bleedings are bleedings that have a serious or even life-threatening impact on a person's health. The study participants will be randomly (by chance) assigned to 1 of 2 treatment groups, A and B. Dependent on the treatment group, the participants will either take the study treatment asundexian by mouth once a day or apixaban by mouth twice a day for approximately 9 - 33 months. Each participant will be in the study for approximately 9 - 34 months. There will be visits to the study site every 3 to 6 months and up to 7 phone calls. Those participants who do not want or are unable to have visits to the study site may join the study remotely in selected locations. The location name contains the abbreviation - DCT in such cases. During the study, the study team will: - take blood samples - do physical examinations - examine heart health using an electrocardiogram (ECG) - check vital signs such as blood pressure and heart rate - do pregnancy tests - ask the participants questions about their quality of life - ask the participants questions about how they are feeling and what adverse events they are having. An adverse event is any medical problem that a participant has during a study. Doctors keep track of all adverse events that happen in studies, even if they do not think the adverse events might be related to the study treatments.
The goal of this clinical study is to test how well the study drug, obeldesivir (formerly GS-5245), works and how safe it is in treating coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in participants that have a higher risk of getting a serious illness.
Phase 2, multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel-group trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of daxdilimab in patients with active, proliferative lupus nephritis (LN).
Insomnia is the most common sleep disorder in patients with primary brain tumors. In the past, 21.5% to 59.2% of patients with primary brain tumors suffer from insomnia symptoms. In addition to hypnotics, nonpharmacological interventions for insomnia in patients with brain tumors are still lacking. When using hypnotics may cause daytime sleepiness, cognitive impairment, and increase the risk of cancer, seeking an effective intervention is of clinical importance. Sensorimotor rhythm neurofeedback therapy has been shown to improve insomnia in different populations. However, its effect on insomnia has not been explored in patients with brain tumors. We, therefore, aim to investigate the feasibility and effect of sensorimotor rhythm neurofeedback in improving insomnia in patients with benign brain tumors after surgery and to examine the correlation between the degree of insomnia improvement and quality of life changes after receiving sensorimotor rhythm neurofeedback.
Parkinson's disease is a disease that is prevalent in the elderly, and the risk increases with age. Sleep disturbance is a common complaint of patients with Parkinson's disease, with a prevalence of 60% to 96%. Long-term sleep disturbance in Parkinson's disease patients significantly reduces cognitive function and quality of life. Nursing staff are the first line of care and should seek appropriate strategies to address sleep disturbances in patients with Parkinson's disease. This study is a feasibility and pilot study, which will be a single-blind, parallel randomized controlled trial. It is expected to include 30 patients with Parkinson's disease with poor sleep quality, and they will be equally allocated to the mixed music group (10 people), passive music group (10 people), and usual care group (10 people) in a 1:1:1 ratio. If assigned to the passive music group, they are required to listen to soft and low-pitched music at about 60 beats per minute for 30 minutes before sleep every day for four weeks. If assigned to the mixed music group, in order to synchronize active daytime music and passive music at bedtime, active daytime music will require patients to perform physical music activities once a week and watch a recorded music intervention video three times a week during the study period (The content is the same as the physical music activities) and follow the activities, and the intervention content before going to bed is the same as the intervention content of the pure passive music group. Subjects assigned to the usual care group maintained their original lifestyle and were assisted by study evaluators to complete pre-and post-test data. The researchers will establish a line group, and the three groups of patients or primary caregivers will be contacted by line every two days to care for the patient's condition. The variables measured included anxiety, depression, quality of life, and sleep quality, as assessed by the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, Parkinson 's Disease. Questionnaire - 39, and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Scale . This study will use one-way ANOVA and linear mixed model for statistical analysis to test the hypothesis of this study. If the effectiveness of this intervention can be confirmed, it will be implemented in Parkinson's disease patients in the future to reduce sleep disturbances and improve patients' quality of life.
Participants who are in clinical remission on 200 mg filgotinib once daily (q.d.) for at least 2 consecutive quarterly visits in the ongoing SELECTION-LTE study (GS-US-418-3899, NCT02914535), are planned to be rolled over and randomized in this study. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of filgotinib in participants in stable clinical remission on 200 mg filgotinib q.d. for whom the dose was decreased to 100 mg q.d. compared to participants remaining on 200 mg q.d.
