Filter by:The aim of this monocentric randomized controlled intervention study is to improve visual function in persons with multiple sclerosis (pwMS) following optic neuritis (neuritis nervi optici, NNO) by means of a light stimulation. In the treatment arm, two 80-second light stimulations are to be administered daily for 12 days in 25 pwMS following recent NNO (1-3 months). For the standardized application of light stimulation in the sense of standardized training, the light stimulation is to be carried out by watching a generated flicker video on a mobile phone. In a sham-intervened control group (n=25), the spontaneous course after NNO will be recorded in parallel. Intensive neuronal stimulation of the visual pathway will be used to stimulate regenerative processes, which will be recorded by means of changes in high-contrast visual acuity (primary endpoint). Secondary endpoints are changes in a colored-contrast test, in 2.5% low contrast visual acuity (LCVA), the P100 conduction latency of visual evoked potentials, and retinal layer thicknesses and vessel densities measured in optical coherence tomography (OCT) and OCT angiography (OCTA). These physiological parameters should help to understand the underlying processes of a potentially altered visual performance.
This study, titled "Prospective Randomized Study on Multimodal Self-Treatment for Women with Incontinence Symptoms Using a Digital Health Application," abbreviated as DINKS, aims to investigate the efficacy of a digital health application in treating incontinence in women. The study involves a single-center, single blinded, randomized, controlled trial with two arms: one receiving digital therapy intervention and the other serving as a control group with standard of care. The primary objective is to reduce the frequency of incontinence episodes over a 12-week intervention period, with secondary goals including improvements in disease symptoms, quality of life, and patient activation. The study plans to recruit 198 female participants and assess various endpoints related to incontinence severity, quality of life, and treatment outcomes.
This clinical trial evaluates the use of an imaging scan (18F-rhPSMA-7.3 positron emission tomography [PET]/magnetic resonance imaging [MRI]) for identifying patients who are at risk of having their disease spread to the lymph nodes in those undergoing radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer that has not spread to other parts of the body (localized). Prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) PET/computed tomography (CT) has emerged as an option to stage newly diagnosed high risk prostate cancer patients. PSMA PET/CT has demonstrated improved diagnostic accuracy for identifying metastasis. PET is procedure in which a small amount of radioactive glucose (sugar) is injected into a vein, and a scanner is used to make detailed, computerized pictures of areas inside the body where the glucose is used. Because cancer cells often use more glucose than normal cells, the pictures can be used to find cancer cells in the body. MRI is procedure in which radio waves and a powerful magnet linked to a computer are used to create detailed pictures of areas inside the body. These pictures can show the difference between normal and diseased tissue. This study may help researchers learn whether 18F-rhPSMA-7.3 PET/ MRI may improve predicting which patients are at risk of lymph node metastases and who are suitable candidates for pelvic lymph node dissection in patients with localized high-risk prostate cancer undergoing radical prostatectomy.
The primary purpose of this trial is to assess the tolerability and safety of CHS-1000 alone and in combination with toripalimab-tpzi in participants with advanced solid tumors.
The aim of this study is to demonstrate the immune response and to evaluate safety of the RSVPreF3 OA investigational vaccine in non-immunocompromised adults 18-49 years of age (YOA), who are at increased risk (AIR) for respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) disease, compared to older adults (OA) (>=) 60 YOA and above
This is a single-center, double-blind, randomized trial. Patients with relapsed or refractory acute B-lymphoblastic leukemia(r/r B-ALL) experiencing early functional exhaustion of CAR-T cells will be randomly allocated into three groups: the control cell group, the CIK treatment group, and the messenger RNA(mRNA)-CIK treatment group. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the prognostic impact of CIK cell therapy on the early functional exhaustion of CAR-T cells in children and adolescent and young adult (AYA) with r/r B-ALL. The primary endpoint of the study is the event-free survival rate of these patient in the CIK cell therapy group.A total number of 213 subjects will be enrolled.
1) The purpose of this study is to test the effects of leg exercise assistive paddling (LEAP) therapy during prolonged sitting (PS) on vascular and functional performance in those with peripheral artery disease (PAD) and age-matched controls. LEAP therapy is a novel application of passive limb movement to enhance blood flow through the legs without muscular contractions. Specifically, LEAP therapy is the rotational passive movement of the lower leg about the knee from 90 to 180 degrees of rotation at a cadence of 1Hz. Previous literature has indicated that this movement pattern can produce robust increases in blood flow in the passively moved limb in healthy individuals, and passive limb movement may protect vascular function during PS. However, the impact of LEAP therapy to improve blood flow in the legs of those with PAD during PS is unknown. 2) To be eligible for this study, those with PAD must be between the ages of 50-85 years, women must be postmenopausal, must have a history of exercise-limiting claudication, have an ankle brachial index (ABI) 0.9. 3) Subjects will participate in a randomized cross-over design study with 2 visits (LEAP therapy and no LEAP therapy). For the first visit, subjects will be randomly allocated to receive LEAP therapy during 2.5 hours of PS or not. For the second visit, subjects will sit for 2.5 hours and will receive the condition that they did not previously receive. Before and after PS, the following measurements will be made: flow-mediated dilation of the popliteal and brachial arteries, arterial stiffness with tonometry techniques, microvascular vasodilatory capacity and skeletal muscle metabolic rate with near-infrared spectroscopy, autonomic nervous system function, and there will be blood drawn from the antecubital vein. After PS, subjects will participate in a graded exercise test to assess functional walking capacity. Finally, during PS, near-infrared spectroscopy on the calf muscles and electrocardiogram will be collected continuously to monitor muscle oxygen availability and autonomic activity, respectively. 4) There will be no follow-up.
The goal of this Phase 3 clinical trial is to compare the efficacy of niraparib versus temozolomide (TMZ) in adult participants with newly-diagnosed, MGMT unmethylated glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). The main questions it aims to answer are: Does niraparib improve progression-free survival (PFS) compared to TMZ? Does niraparib improve overall survival (OS) compared to TMZ? Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two treatment arms: niraparib or TMZ. - study drug (Niraparib) or - comparator drug (Temozolomide - which is the standard approved treatment for MGMT unmethylated glioblastoma). The study medication will be taken daily while receiving standard of care radiation therapy (RT) for 6-7 weeks. Participants may continue to take the niraparib or TMZ adjuvantly as long as the cancer does not get worse or completion of 6 cycles of treatment (TMZ). A total of 450 participants will be enrolled in the study. Participants' tasks will include: - Complete study visits as scheduled - Complete a diary to record study medication
