Filter by:This study is designed to test the efficacy and safety of combinations of two well-understood agents - famotidine and celecoxib in patients hospitalized with moderate-to-severe COVID-19 (based on World Health Organization [WHO] Ordinal Scale for Clinical Improvement). Both famotidine and celecoxib separately demonstrate clinical activity in mitigating COVID-19 disease symptoms or severity, and appear to have separate and complementary mechanisms of action.
The study objective is to demonstrate that rejection surveillance of heart transplant recipients with Prospera dd-cfDNA is non-inferior to rejection surveillance with endomyocardial biopsy and histology in the first post-transplant year.
This study is intended to help establish standard procedures for use of FFR in the peripheral arterial system and to evaluate the correlation of post-procedural FFR values and clinical outcomes in Superficial Femoral artery (SFA) interventions in subjects ages 18 to 79 with PAD.
This is a three-year pre- and post- interventional study to assess the effectiveness of collaborative quality improvement interventions on reducing mortality and severe intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) for neonates receiving extracorporeal life support (ECLS) in China.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of weekly iron and folic acid (IFA) supplementation and one-time deworming treatment at the community level in improving hemoglobin levels among adolescent girls in Liberia, West Africa, and to assess the feasibility and effectiveness of a targeted nutrition education program in improving nutrition knowledge, attitudes, and practices in the same population.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate remission induction therapy for refractory Lupus Erythematosus with autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT) versus Rituximab (anti CD20) followed by maintenance therapy with mycophenolate mofetil (MMF).
The purpose of this study is to examine how a single dose of MIFEPREX® (mifepristone) affects the breast tissue in patients with BRCA1 (a gene that normally acts to restrain the growth of cells in the breast, but if it mutates may lead to breast cancer) mutations undergoing a planned prophylactic mastectomy (having one or both breasts removed).
The primary objective of this study is to investigate the efficacy of nemolizumab administered in combination with topical background therapy (topical corticosteroids [TCS] with or without topical calcineurin inhibitors [TCI]) in adult participants with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD) who are not adequately controlled with or are not advised to use oral cyclosporine A (CsA) for medical reasons. The secondary objective is to investigate the safety of nemolizumab in adult participants with moderate-to-severe AD who are not adequately controlled with or are not advised to use oral CsA for medical reasons. The study will be carried out in up to 70 different locations across Europe.
PQ-504a-001 (Fuchs Focus) is an open-label, single-dose, exploratory study to evaluate safety, tolerability, and corneal endothelium molecular biomarker(s) in subjects with Fuchs Endothelial Corneal Dystrophy with Trinucleotide Repeat Expansion in the TCF4 gene (FECD3).
The prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD ) in the American population is approximately 30% in adults and 10% in children, making it the most common. Cause of chronic liver disease in the United States. Although the majority of patients with NAFLD have a benign clinical course, the development of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH ), with necro-inflammation and progressive fibrosis, increases the risk for development of cirrhosis and its complications. Among patients with NASH, approximately 28% develop cirrhosis over an 8-year follow-up period. NASH and advanced fibrosis is associated with increased morbidity and mortality among those patients with advanced histologic severity such as NASH and fibrosis the gold standard for diagnosing and staging NAFLD is liver biopsy. Liver biopsy is associated with costs and risks that make it impractical for generalized use in a condition that affects such a high portion of the population. Furthermore, liver biopsy is also limited by significant sampling error in NAFLD. Thus, there is a pressing need for accurate non-invasive predictors of NAFLD that would also allow differentiation of those subjects at higher risk of disease progression. At present, in the clinical setting, some demographic factors, blood tests, and imaging studies can be used to predict a higher risk of disease in patients being evaluated for NAFLD. These predictors, however, are of limited sensitivity and specificity compared with liver biopsy. The development and validation of accurate predictors and scoring systems to identify patients at higher risk for NASH and fibrosis would allow identification of subjects who would benefit the most from liver biopsy and potentially help monitor disease
