Filter by:For locally advanced gastric and gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma (cT3-4bNanyM0), perioperative PD-1 antibody combined with chemotherapy can downstage tumor stage, increase the R0 resection rate, and may improve the long-term survival. Combination of perioperative surufatinib, sintilimab and chemotherapy for locally advanced gastric and gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma could be a novel therapeutic strategy to increase response rate and therapeutic efficacy. Surufatinib, as the oral drug in this study is a small molecule kinase inhibitor that mainly acts on vascular growth factor receptor (VEGFR1, 2,3), fibroblast growth factor receptor 1(FGFR1) and colony stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R). It is a proprietary product developed by Hutchison Whampoa Pharmaceutical (Shanghai, China) Co., LTD. Surufatinib has been approved for neuroendocrine tumor. This study is a monocenter, single-arm phase 2 clinical trial to evaluate tolerability, safety and efficacy of perioperative surufatinib in combination with sintilimab and chemotherapy in locally advanced gastric and gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma.
"RECK" is a combination of local anesthesia medications, used for the purpose of pain control. RECK is an acronym which stands for Ropivacaine, Epinephrine, Clonidine, and Ketorolac. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of RECK local injectable anesthetic in the setting of posterior spinal fusion. Our specific aims are the following. Primary aim: to investigate the effect of RECK local injectable anesthetic on postoperative VAS pain scores. Secondary aims: to investigate of effect of RECK injection on postoperative opioid consumption and hospital length of stay. Hypothesis: RECK injection will significantly decrease postoperative VAS pain score, opioid consumption, and hospital length of stay compared to placebo controls.
This study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of low-dose radiation combined with neoadjuvant chemotherapy and immunotherapy in the treatment of locally advanced thoracic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. By reducing the radiation dose from 40 Gy in 20 fractions to 4 Gy in 2 fractions, the goal is to lessen the adverse reactions caused by radiotherapy. Additionally, the study explores whether low-dose radiation therapy can promote the cross-presentation of tumor-specific antigens and increase lymphocyte infiltration into the tumor site. Study also examines whether this approach can enhance tumor-specific immune responses, thereby potentially improving the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors.
Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) is the use of ultrasound by the bedside provider in real time to answer a specific question and guide medical management. POCUS can be used to diagnose the severity of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) through a lung ultrasound score. Lung ultrasound scores have also been shown to predict if an infant is treated with an initial dose of surfactant. Therefore, using lung ultrasound scores to guide surfactant therapy for RDS will likely lead to earlier surfactant therapy and may improve short-term respiratory outcomes. This study will test this theory by comparing lung ultrasound score-guided surfactant therapy for premature infants with RDS with our current surfactant administration guidelines.
The investigators explore the efficacy and safety of adebrelimab (PD-L1 inhibitor) plus chemotherapy and bevacizumab induction therapy followed by maintenance therapy with adebrelimab plus fluzoparib (PARP inhibitor)and bevacizumab in platinum-sensitive relapsed ovarian cancer.
The study is evaluating the performance of prosthesis control system, referred to as Phantom X, in able bodied individuals and individuals with upper limb amputation at the forearm level.
This study aims to confirm the safety and effectiveness of the INDIGO Aspiration System in patients requiring immediate treatment for acute lower extremity artery occlusion, acute superior mesenteric artery occlusion, or severe acute deep vein thrombosis. Primary objective of the study is to collect predetermined data on use, safety and effectiveness, including clinical and technical performance of the INDIGO System in Japan.
Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is a distressing and common complication after surgery. The concept of clinical important PONV (CI-PONV) assesses the impact of PONV on patient-reported outcomes. This research aims to conduct an analysis of the risk factors contributing to CI-PONV utilizing the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) and stepwise regression techniques. All 1154 patients participating in the FDP-PONV trial are included in this study and categorized into two groups: the CI-PONV group and the non-CI-PONV group. CI-PONV is defined as the occurrence of PONV with a simplified PONV impact scale score of 5 or higher within 24 hours after surgery. The LASSO method is employed to identify the most relevant variables from an initial set of 56 related variables and stepwise regression is used to further refine the selection of the ultimate predictors.
This study examines the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of anti-CD19 /CD22 CAR T cells (KQ-2002)manufactured on-site in adults with relapsed or refractory CD19+ B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia or CD19+ B cell non Hodgkin lymphoma.
The goal of this clinical trial is to better understand how different strategies, timing, and enhancements to medically tailored food delivery will address structural inequities in the food environment, empower communities to sustain behavior change, and ultimately improve postpartum weight control to prevent chronic hypertension-a potent contributor to disparate mortality among Black women. - To conduct a pilot randomized control trial to test the feasibility, acceptability, and effectiveness of a multi-component Medically Tailored Food (MTF) intervention, MFeast ENHANCED (a hybrid MTF intervention with a patient-activated change from prepared meals to fresh food delivery, customized for postpartum people, culturally customized for engagement and adherence, and food provision for dependents) versus MFeast Usual Care (prepared medically tailored foods only). - To test sustainability and scalability. Participants will: - Respond to online surveys (supported by study team members via scheduled phone calls) via REDCap links shared before each study visit at baseline, 3 and 6 months post-delivery after the baseline survey. - Submit anthropometric data (e.g. weight and blood pressure)
