Filter by:The objective of the study aims to collect tumor tissue at the moment of progression under Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) in biological resources center in Ambroise Paré hospital, in order to insure later study on molecular mechanism involving the progression of NSCLC and SCLC under ICI. The further analysis of research will be performed in the EA 4340 unity, Biomarkers and Clinical Trials in cancerology and onco-hematology, UVSQ, University of Paris-Saclay.
The two-year prospective study aims at investigating the benefits of frequent replacement (monthly) orthokeratology lenses in myopia control in terms of effectiveness in control and prevention of ocular complications. The secondary objective will be investigating the use of weekly protein removal system in monthly replacement modality orthokeratology lenses on surface deposit.
The two-year prospective study aims at investigating frequently replacement effect on myopia control in young children, and the use of weekly protein removal system in monthly replacement modality orthokeratology lenses on surface deposit.
The primary objective is to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of BIIB078 in participants with chromosome 9 open reading frame 72-amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (C9ORF72-ALS). The secondary objective is to evaluate the pharmacokinectic (PK) of BIIB078 in participants with C9ORF72-ALS.
Endocrine therapy is the initial treatment for most hormone receptor positive (HR+), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative (HER2-) breast cancers. This study will evaluate the use of venetoclax in combination with capecitabine in adult participants with HR+, HER2-, metastatic breast cancer (MBC) who had disease progression following treatment that included a cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) inhibitor. Venetoclax is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of breast cancer. This study is open-label meaning both the participants and study doctors will know what treatment is being given. The study includes two phases: dose escalation and dose expansion. In dose escalation, participants will receive various doses of venetoclax in combination with capecitabine. In dose expansion, participants will receive the recommended dose of venetoclax determined during dose escalation in combination with capecitabine. Adult participants with locally advanced or MBC that is not amenable to curative therapy will be enrolled. Around 42 participants will be enrolled at approximately 20 sites worldwide. Venetoclax and capecitabine will be administered on a 21-day cycle. During dose escalation, participants will take various doses of venetoclax as a tablet by mouth once a day and capecitabine as a tablet by mouth twice per day on days 1 - 14 of each cycle for approximately 30 weeks. During dose expansion, participants will take venetoclax at the dose identified during dose escalation as a tablet by mouth once a day and capecitabine as a tablet by mouth twice per day on days 1 - 14 of each cycle for approximately 30 weeks. There may be a higher burden for participants in this trial compared to standard of care. Participants will attend weekly visits during the course of the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, and evaluating for side effects.
This study will evaluate whether a lifestyle intervention focused on weight loss, EMPOWER, reduces prostate cancer progression at 12 months among men with biochemical recurrence following local treatment for prostate cancer. Half of the men will be randomized to receive the EMPOWER intervention, while the other half will receive standard of care.
Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is a rare and fatal neurodegenerative disease characterised by a variable combination of parkinsonism, cerebellar impairment and autonomic dysfunction. The neuropathological hallmark is the accumulation of alpha-synuclein in oligodendrocytes. While some symptomatic treatments exist, neuroprotective treatments for MSA remain an urgent, unmet need. Moreover, at present there is not a single surrogate biomarker of MSA which could be used to inform clinical trials. This study seeks to characterise the natural history of MSA on a panel of candidate biomarkers, pre-selected for being putative surrogates of the underlying neurodegenerative process
In this longitudinal study, the investigators will follow Parkinson's disease (PD) patients with and without glucocerebrosidase (GBA) mutations. The investigators hypothesize that the rate of increase in brain network activity over time (network progression rate) is faster in patients with GBA gene mutations.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a common disorder that affects approximately 400,000 Danish citizens. About 3,000-3,500 Danes die yearly because of the disorder, and the costs associated with hospital admissions are estimated to be 535 million Danish kroner (DKK). Patients with COPD risk a worsening of their disorder, and in most cases, this will require hospitalization. One of the used treatments is providing oxygen to the patients via e.g. masks. The recommendations on oxygen treatment are currently based on a study from 2010 where 37% of the participants in this study did not receive the intended treatment, which may have had massive effects on the results. It is worrying that no other studies have shown which oxygen treatment is safest for the patients. As such, we deem it important to study how best to treat the patients. Our study is of high clinical relevance as hospitals receive patients with worsening of COPD daily. We need more, better data regarding the oxygen treatment of our patients, in order to provide our patients with the best possible care. The purpose of our study is thus to determine which oxygen treatment is best for patients with acute worsening of COPD symptoms. We will use a prospective, randomized controlled open-label trial. We will use two treatments: Treatment 1 is giving oxygen to the patient to reach a peripheral oxygen saturation of above 94%. Treatment 2 is giving oxygen to reach a peripheral oxygen saturation of between 88% and 92%. Our primary outcome is 30-day all-cause mortality, with secondary outcomes being 7-day all-cause mortality, need for non-invasive ventilation, intubation or intensive care admission, over-all length of hospital stay and respiratory acidosis. We believe that a lower oxygen saturation percentage may be superior as one study (Austin et al., 2010) showed a lower mortality rate in the group of patients that had a lower peripheral oxygen saturation. Additionally, the risk of respiratory acidosis and hypercapnia were lower. We wish to perform our study in the hospital sector as this study was performed in the prehospital sector and thus their results cannot be translated directly.
This phase II trial studies how well anakinra works in preventing severe chimeric antigen receptor T-cell-related encephalopathy syndrome after chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy in patients with large B-cell lymphoma that has come back or has not responded to treatment. Immunosuppressive therapy, such as anakinra, is used to decrease the body?s immune response, which may prevent severe chimeric antigen receptor T-cell-related encephalopathy syndrome.
