Filter by:The aim of this study is to develop a post-earthquake, trauma-focused Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)-based psychosocial intervention program (DeST-ACT) and to examine its effectiveness, feasibility, and acceptability of this program in enhancing life satisfaction and psychological flexibility in individuals exposed to earthquake trauma. In this regard, the main hypothesis is that the DeST-ACT psychosocial intervention program is effective, feasible, and acceptable among individuals exposed to earthquake trauma, including both primary and secondary outcomes of the program.
This study consists of two home-based exercise programs: a stationary exercise bicycle intervention (Arm A), and a walking intervention (Arm B). The study will enroll 24 patients who are starting ADT (Androgen Deprivation Therapy)/ARSI (Androgen-Receptor Signaling Inhibitors) therapy for newly diagnosed metastatic castrate-sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC). All participants will be asked to complete 1-2 training sessions at UVA prior to starting the exercise. All participants will be asked to complete aerobic and strength testing before and after the exercise program. Participants will be asked to answer questionnaires throughout the program. The at-home exercise will last for 12 weeks.
This is a prospective, single-arm clinical study designed to evaluate the 6-month progression-free survival rate (6-month PFS rate) of a PD-L1 inhibitor combined with apatinib as first-line maintenance treatment for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC). The study plans to recruit 40 patients. After receiving 4-6 cycles of induction therapy, patients whose efficacy is evaluated as CR, PR or SD (according to RECIST 1.1) will enter maintenance therapy with PD-L1 inhibitor + apatinib 250 mg po qd. , the selection of PD-L1 inhibitors in the maintenance phase is consistent with the first-line standard treatment in the induction phase. Efficacy was assessed using RECISIT 1.1, with imaging evaluations every 6 weeks (±7 days) for 48 weeks after the first dose and every 9 weeks (±7 days) after week 48, regardless of treatment delays or interruptions, until Disease progression or study termination, whichever occurs first. The primary efficacy endpoint of this study is 6-month PFS rate, and secondary efficacy endpoints include median PFS, median OS and safety.
This protocol is for an open-label randomized trial evaluating the safety of using ketamine in combination with propofol for sedation versus the standard of care analgosedation in patients admitted to the intensive care unit with severe traumatic brain injury.
In this study, researchers want to learn about the safety of BAY3283142 after a single dose and multiple doses in participants with mild to moderate high blood pressure. The study treatment called BAY3283142 helps to relax blood vessels. It is currently under development for the treatment of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR). CKD is a condition in which the kidneys' ability to work gradually decrease over time. NPDR is a condition in which high blood glucose levels cause damage to the blood vessels of the retina, which is a tissue at the back of the eyes. During this study, participants will take either different doses of the study drug BAY3283142 as tablets by mouth or a placebo. A placebo looks like the study drug but does not have any medicine in it. At the start of this study, the study doctor will check the medical history and current medications of the participants. They will also perform a complete health check on all the participants. Researchers will collect blood and urine samples from the participants at different time points to assess the safety and effects of BAY3283142. Each treatment scheme will consist of three doses that are given in a consecutive manner. For the first 7 days, participants will receive a lower dose of BAY3283142 in each treatment scheme. The middle and the higher dose of each treatment scheme will be given for 14 days each. Participants will not know which treatment (placebo or BAY3283142) they will be given, but the study doctor will know which group received which treatment. A participant can be in the study for 10 weeks. This study will be conducted on men or postmenopausal women participants with mild to moderate high blood pressure who may not directly benefit from treatment with BAY3283142. However, information collected in this study will serve as a basis for the development of BAY3283142 for the treatment of people with CKD or NPDR. Participants may experience pain and discomfort when blood samples are taken. The researchers will closely monitor and manage any medical problems that the participants may have during the study.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of a probiotic supplement containing Bifidobacterium animalis lactis BL-04 on the clinical effectiveness of immunotherapy in patients diagnosed with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer who are receiving immunotherapy.
The goal of this randomized, controlled, single blinded trial is to evaluate the medium to long-term effects of an Afrocentric sexual health curriculum on health professional students' knowledge, attitudes, and clinical skills in providing sexual health in Tanzania.
This study is a first-in-human (FIH) Phase 1 study of BGB-B2033 to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics, and preliminary antitumor activity of the BGB-B2033 in participants with advanced or metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), alpha-fetoprotein (AFP)-producing gastric cancer (GC), extragonadal yolk sac tumors, non-dysgerminomas, or glypican-3 (GPC3)-positive squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The study will also identify the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of BGB-B2033 alone and in combination with tislelizumab for subsequent proof-of-concept studies. BGB-B2033 will be administered by intravenous infusion. The Phase 1 study will be conducted in 2 parts: Part A (Monotherapy Dose Escalation and Safety Expansion) and Part B (Combination Dose Escalation and Safety Expansion).
Introduction Diabetic foot-ulcers leads to decreased quality of life, risk of major amputation, and resource demanding health-care. To minimize the risk of developing foot-ulcers, persons with diabetes are given the advice to daily inspect their feet and to apply skincare formulations. However, commercially available skincare products have rarely been developed and evaluated for diabetes foot care specifically. The primary aim of this randomized controlled trial (RCT) is to evaluate the effects in reducing foot xerosis in persons with diabetes without foot-ulcers using two skincare creams containing different humectants (interventions) against a cream base non-humectant (comparator). Secondary outcomes are to evaluate differences on skin barrier integrity, low-molecular weight biomarkers and skin microbiota, microcirculation including transcutaneous oxygen pressure, degree of neuropathy, and HbA1c between intervention-comparator cream. Methods Two-armed double-blind RCT. With 80% power, two-tailed significance of 2.5% in each arm, 39 study persons is needed in each arm, total 78 persons, to be able to prove a reduction of at least one category in the Xerosis Severity Scale with the intervention creams compared to the comparator. In one arm, each participant will treat one foot with one of the intervention creams (Oviderm® or Canoderm®), while the opposite foot will be treated with the comparator cream (Decubal® lipid cream®), twice a day. If needed, participants are enrolled after a wash-out period of two weeks. The participants will undergo examinations at baseline, day 14 and day 28. Discussion This RCT evaluate the potential effects of humectants in skin creams against foot xerosis in persons with diabetes. The outcomes of this trial could have implications on treatment recommendations of foot care and for the prevention of foot ulcer.
The Drugs Controller General of India (DCGI) has granted approval for Asciminib film-coated 40 mg tablets on 20 Oct 2023 with the condition to perform a Phase IV clinical study in Indian patients with Philadelphia chromosome-positive chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase (Ph+ CML-CP) per the India Prescribing Information (PI). The purpose of this prospective, multicenter, single-arm, open-label, Phase IV study is, therefore, to confirm the safety and efficacy of Asciminib in Indian patients with Ph+ CML-CP (without threonine-315 residue with isoleucine [T315I] mutation), previously treated with 2 or more tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) and patients with Ph+ CML-CP with T315I mutation.
