Filter by:The hypothesis under the study is that there could be a link between a dysfunction in peripheral microcirculation, sublingual microcirculation or cardiovascular control and the development of post cardiac surgery major morbidities (stroke, acute kidney injury, prolonged intubation, mediastinitis, surgical reopening, death). The state of sublingual microcirculation, of peripheral microcirculation and cardiovascular control will be assessed in 100 patients undergoing cardiac surgery during general anesthesia before the intervention and at the end of the intervention at the arrival in post-surgery ICU by means of signal processing techniques. The extracted markers will be used to assess a statistical prediction model of major morbidities.
This is a phase l, single arm, prospective open, dose-escalation study in patients with relapsed or refractory CD19-positive B cell malignancies (ALL, NHL, CLL). The trial will include adult and pediatric patients. There will be three individual cohorts, defined by disease biology: pediatric ALL and aggressive pediatric NHL (Cohort 1), adult ALL (Cohort 2) and adult NHL/CLL (Cohort 3).
ADAPT-HER2-IV will address question of optimal neoadjuvant therapy in patients with less advanced -HER2+ EBC. ADAPT-HER2-IV is planned as a superiority trial to demonstrate higher pCR rates in both clinically relevant subgroups of low-intermediate risk HER2+ EBC. Moreover, it aims to demonstrate excellent survival in patients treated by T-DXd (with the use of standard chemotherapy at investigator´s decision restricted only to patients with substantial residual tumour burden after T-DXd-treatment).
To our knowledge, as of this day there are only four studies which examined the effects of eTRE with a duration of 12 weeks. There are no studies that examined this phenomenon beyond 12 weeks, one study that lasted five weeks and four studies that lasted 4 weeks or less, some even days. The four studies that lasted 12 weeks in duration all have opportunities to improve upon, which will be discussed here. The first study performed by Gabel et al., focused primarily on measuring body weight, not body composition in older adults. The eating window also began later in the morning at 1000h and finished at 1800h. There also was no restriction on participants consuming caffeine during the fasting window. The second study conducted by Gasmi et al., was focused on strictly older male participants that were active and healthy, again, without measuring body composition. The third study conducted by Wilkinson et al., did not measure body composition and the eating window lasted 10 hours instead of 8. The fourth study performed by Chow et al., examined eTRE with adults aged 45+/-12 years old and did not mention any exclusion criteria based upon physical activity levels or restrictions on caffeine/artificial sweetener intake during the fasting window. Furthermore, none of the studies mentioned above examined eTRE against eTRE with Brief Intense Stair Climbing (BISC) directly. We believe that the proposed study will address the concerns mentioned previously and further knowledge associated with eTRE.
This study will be carried out to examine the effect of telephone-assisted smoking cessation program on self-efficacy, smoking behavior, tumor recurrence and progression in patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer.
This study aimed to evaluate the safety,tolerability and preliminary efficacy of QLF32101 administered intravenously and subcutaneously in patients with R/R, AML.
This study aims to verify the prediction model of postoperative pulmonary complications by collecting clinical information on elderly patients. In addition, the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications in elderly patients before and after using the prediction model was compared.
Carbonic anhydrase IX (CA IX) has been implicated in the progression of most solid tumours and expression has been demonstrated in clinical samples from a variety of solid cancers. High expression is often associated with high grade or metastatic disease and poor prognosis. CA IX is not expressed in normal tissue, potentially providing a cancer-associated target that would not likely result in significant interruption of normal biologic function in organs not affected by cancer. A humanized monoclonal antibody CA9hu-1 has shown robust activity in a variety of tumour models including models of ovarian, prostate, breast, pancreatic, colon and lung where tumour growth and metastasis are inhibited when CA9hu-1 is used as a monotherapy. Enhancement of chemotherapy has also been demonstrated in several models in combination with CA9hu-1. CA IX is also expressed by tumour-associated cells (angiogenic endothelium, tumour-associated macrophages), which also drive cancer progression. Thus, targeting CA IX with CA9hu-1 in cancer patients is expected to affect multiple pathways and multiple tumour compartments that are important to tumour progression. Taken together, there is strong rationale for developing hu-CA91 for the treatment of advanced cancer. The present study was designed to establish safety and toxicity profile and maximum tolerated dose of CA9hu-1, evaluate pharmacokinetics, investigate the presence of anti-drug antibody, to document anti-tumour activity at a clinically relevant dose, and to document the use of [18F]FLT-PET as a biomarker for detection of early tumour response at a clinically relevant dose.
The primary objective of this work is to study the 1-year prognosis of patients who received Veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for cardiogenic shock with the need for blood transfusion. Secondary objectives are to determine whether the transfusion strategy used (liberal or restrictive) still has an impact on overall mortality. We will also determine the factors associated with overall in-hospital mortality and look at the impact of transfusion in relation to the risk of hemolysis on the consequences in the occurrence of long-term chronic renal failure.
This study aims at evaluating the diagnostic accuracy of serum procalcitonin, PEC index, modified Wehmeyer, and Mansoura scoring systems for SBP in cirrhotic patients with ascites
