Filter by:A randomized controlled pilot trial with the aim of identifying the dose of liposomal amphotericin B associated with the highest cure rate in Cutaneous Leishmaniasis (CL). We selected 28 patients of both sexes, aged 60 years or older, diagnosed with CL and confirmed by detection of L. braziliensis DNA. The groups were treated with different total doses of medication: G1: 12 mg/kg; G2: 18mg/kg; G3: 24 mg/kg. Clinical and laboratory evaluations were carried out during the period of 180 days (D0, D15, D30, D60, D120, D150 and D180).
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate efficacy of danicopan as add-on treatment to ravulizumab or eculizumab as assessed by hemoglobin (Hgb) change from Baseline at Week 12 in pediatric participants with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) and clinically significant extravascular hemolysis (CS-EVH).
The primary objective of this prospective observational physiological study is to evaluate the variation in regional distribution of intrapulmonary volume in the dependent and non-dependent lung regions in patients undergoing neurosurgical intervention between supine and Park-Bench position.
The technique of intravenous regional analgesia using a tourniquet consisting of two cuffs over the upper arm is a well-known procedure, With the tourniquet being conventionally placed over the upper arm, a relatively high dose of local anaesthetic drug is required and occasionally systemic toxic reactions have occurred. The purpose of the present study is to establish the efficacy of the technique of intravenous regional analgesia with a forearm tourniquet using reduced doses of lidocaine.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the perspectives and preferences of patients and healthcare professionals (medical oncologists, pneumologists, thoracic surgeons) regarding treatment options in the resectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) setting
The purpose of this study is to learn about the safety (the impact of the study drug on the participant's body), effects of the study drug alone or in combination with bevacizumab or sasanlimab, and to find the best dose. This study is seeking participants who have solid tumors that: - have advanced (cancer that doesn't disappear or stay away with treatment) or - has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic). This includes (but limited to) the following cancer types: - Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC): It's a type of lung cancer where the cells grow slowly but often spread to other parts of the body. - Colorectal Cancer (CRC): This is a disease where cells in the colon or rectum grow out of control. - Urothelial Cancer (UC): This is a cancer that starts in the urinary systems. - Melanoma: Skin cancer that develops when melanocytes (the cells that give the skin its tan or brown color) start to grow out of control. All participants in this study will receive the study medication (PF-07329640) as an IV infusion (given directly into a vein) at the study clinic every week for repeating 28-day cycles. Depending on which part of the study participants are enrolled in they will receive the study medication (PF-07329640 alone or in combination with other anti-cancer medications (bevacizumab or sasanlimab). Bevacizumab is given in the clinic as IV infusion every two weeks and sasanlimab is given as a shot under the skin every 4 weeks. Participants can continue to take the study medication (PF-07329640) and bevacizumab until their cancer is no longer responding. Participants who are taking sasanlimab may receive it for up to 2 years. The study will look at the experiences of people receiving the study medicines. This will help see if the study medicines are safe and effective. Participants will be involved in this study for up to 4 years. During this time, they will have a study visit every week. After they have stopped taking the study medication (at about at 2 years) they will be followed for another two years to see how they are doing.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the application of fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2) with normal saline for the healing of chronic tympanic membrane (TM) perforations. This is an extension of a prior study. The main question it aims to answer is: Will modifications to our prior surgical trial provide higher success rates in obtaining complete closure of chronic tympanic membrane perforations? Twenty participants will be randomized in a controlled study to FGF2 or saline in a 3:1 ratio and the total tympanic membrane closure compared.
This phase Ib trial tests the safety, side effects, and effectiveness of humanized (hu)CD19-chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy in treating patients with CD19 positive B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) that has come back after a period of improvement (relapsed) or that has not responded to previous treatment (refractory). CAR T-cell therapy is a treatment in which a patient's T cells (a type of immune system cell) are changed in the laboratory so they will attack cancer cells. T cells are taken from a patient's blood. Then the gene for a special receptor that binds to a certain protein, such as CD19, on the patient's cancer cells is added to the T cells in the laboratory. The special receptor is called a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR). Large numbers of the huCD19 positive CAR T cells are grown in the laboratory and given to the patient by infusion for treatment of certain cancers. Chemotherapy drugs, such as fludarabine and cyclophosphamide, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. huCD19-CAR T cell therapy may be safe, tolerable and effective in treating patients with relapsed or refractory CD19 positive ALL.
This is a open-label, randomized, paired design, multicenter study of the Cardiovascular Autonomic Nervous Function Multi-Parameter Evaluation System (R6000) for evaluating cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy. R6000 is novel intellectual diagnostic device for cardiovascular autonomic reflex tests and heart rate variability analysis. A total of 85 subjects will be enrolled in trial Ⅰ and 150 subjects will be enrolled in trial Ⅱ. In trial Ⅰ, subjects will be randomized to two groups, one of which will receive test by the tested device first and the other one will be tested by conventional blood pressure kit. The primary objective of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of the Cardiovascular Autonomic Nervous Function Multi-Parameter Evaluation System. The secondary objective is to evaluate the safety of the cardiovascular autonomic testing system and stability.
The goal of this validation study is to provide further evidence of the metrological properties of the 6-minute stepper test in individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or interstitial lung disease (ILD). The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Is the 6-minute stepper test valid when compared to the 6-minute walk test and a maximal cardiopulmonary cycling test? 2. Does the 6-minute stepper test give the same results when conducted through direct (i.e., therapist in person) and remote (i.e., videoconferencing) monitoring? 3. Is the 6-minute stepper test safe when conducted at the home of the individual with direct (i.e., therapist in person) or remote (i.e., videoconferencing) monitoring? Participants will: - Conduct the 6-minute stepper test (several trials on separate days) - Conduct the 6-minute walk test (1 trial on 1 day) - Conduct a maximal cardiopulmonary test on a cycle ergometer (1 trial on 1 day) - Participate in a semi-structured interview to provide their feedback with regards to the 6-minute stepper test
