Filter by:Observational, single-site prospective and minimally interventional study in women with X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD), conducted in France.
The trabeculectomy is the gold standard in glaucoma surgery, nevertheless often postoperative interventions have to be done. (1),(2) The PreserFlo MicroShunt (Santen, Osaka, Japan) implantation occurs without critical steps of trabeculectomy. (3) According to a study a 20% eye pressure reduction was achieved in 53.9% of patients one year after PreserFlo MicroShunt implantation and the risk of postoperative hypotony was clearly minimized. (4) It has been shown that after trabeculectomy there is a stable development of visual fields in the first 3 months after surgery and then, despite adequate intraocular pressure reduction, visual fields deteriorate. (5) At the Klinikum Klagenfurt structural and functional changes after PreserFlo MicroShunt Implantation shall be evaluated.
Observational study on the quality of life and pathological state of patients underwent radical cystectomy.
T Regulatory cells which suppressor subset of T cells and related cytokines remain in blood and infiltrates into the tissue under need. The role of Treg and related cytokines in succession of periodontal inflammation is recently a subject of research interest. Chronic gingivitis and periodontitis being chronic inflammatory diseases can upregulate various cytokines in the systemic circulation and gingival crevicular fluid. This study aimed to compare levels of Tregs with Interleukin-21, 22, 33, 35 and vitamin D-binding protein in blood and GCF of periodontally healthy persons, chronic gingivitis patients, and severe chronic periodontitis patients.
Immunotherapy with programmed death-1(PD-1) inhibitors is now standard therapy for first-line use in patients with driver-negative advanced NSCLC, whether as single-agent or in combination with chemotherapy. After progression of first-line immunotherapy, NSCLC patients may be treated with chemotherapy, radiotherapy or targeted therapies, among others. Recently, Immune Checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) rechallenge has become a highly anticipated option. Although the objective response rate of the ICIs rechallenge patients has decreased substantially compared with the efficacy of the first ICI treatment, nearly 50% of patients can regain disease control. Cryoablation is a minimally invasive technique that utilizes very low temperature to eliminate viable tumour cells in target tissues. It has been reported that ablation can enhance immune response. The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of toripalimab (PD-1) in combination with cryoablation in the treatment of oligometastatic driver-negative advanced NSCLC after first-line immunotherapy progress.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the efficacy and safety of trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) in the treatment of patients with advanced HER2-positive breast cancer after TKIs or HP therapy. The main questions it aims to answer are: - The objective response rate of patients receiving T-DM1 therapy with advanced HER2-positive breast cancer after TKIs or HP therapy. - The adverse events and prognosis of patients with advanced HER2-positive breast cancer who receive the T-DM1 therapy. - Changes of anti-tumor immunity during T-DM1 therapy in patients with advanced HER2-positive breast cancer. Participants will receive T-DM1 treatment (3.6mg/kg, d1/21, IVD) until progressive diseases or intolerable adverse effects occurs.
The aim of this trial is to assess the potential key drug-drug interactions with EP395 in the clinical setting.
The main goal of this study is to describe the clinical course, outcomes and risk factors for myocarditis and pericarditis associated with Moderna vaccination targeting SARS-CoV-2.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the use of creatine monohydrate supplementation with resistance training to preserve muscle mass and help lessen prostate cancer progression. The main question it aims to answer is if this treatment will help maintain muscle mass to help in reducing fatigue and improving physical function, independence, and quality of life. Participants will be asked to participate in a 52-week exercise intervention consisting of a twice weekly telehealth resistance training program.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a chronic and often progressive pulmonary disease, where inflammation and recurrent infections are key pathophysiological contibutors in disease progression. Acute exacerbations of COPD (AECOPD) are often treated with antibiotics, even though only about 50% are caused by bacteria, and the evidence for benefit of empiric antibiotic treatment in AECOPD is conflicting. Microbiological sampling is often insufficient in the setting of AECOPD, and there is a lack of biomarkers distinguishing AECOPD caused by bacteria from those not caused by bacteria, leaving the clinician with few tools to guide the use of antibiotics. Overuse of antibiotics is the main driver of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), a major global public health threat, and obtaining the correct microbiological diagnose is important in guiding treatment of AECOPD. COPEXNOR seeks to examine which samples give the highest microbiological yield in AECOPD, comparing induced sputum to nasopharyngeal swabs. We will also compare conventional microbiological diagnostics to modern rapid molecular microbiological tests, to evaluate if faster microbiological diagnosis improves antibiotic stewardship. The study aims to define the microbiological etiology causing AECOPD in the Norwegian COPD-population, and examine the lung microbiome over time. COPEXNOR will explore biomarkers in sputum and blood that can be useful for differentiating patients who will benefit from antibiotic treatment from patients who will not.
