Filter by:This is a randomized controlled trial to test a combination behavioral and biomedical interventions to improve the HIV prevention and care cascades in a population of mobile men in a high priority setting (fishermen in Kenya). The intervention strategy is to recruit and train highly socially-connected men to distribute HIV self-tests and provide linkage support to men in their close social networks. The study will determine whether this social network-based approach along with small financial incentives in the form of transport vouchers can increase men's self-testing, linkage to and uptake of ART and PrEP after self-testing, virologic suppression at 6 months (for those initiating ART) and PrEP adherence (for those initiating PrEP) at 6 months. The study includes a longitudinal qualitative and mixed methods (quantitative and qualitative assessments) to identify the pathways of intervention action, and understand how the social network-based approach with support for linkage affects testing and ART and PrEP uptake and retention in men.
The presence of blood clot in stomach limited quality of endoscopic view ,which affect successful rate of hemostatic endoscopy in patient with acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding. The study is aimed to evaluate the efficacy of metoclopramide, as pro-kinetic agent ,for gastric visualization in the patient with acute UGIB; double-blind randomized controlled trial and two centers study. The patient were randomly assigned to receive either metoclopramide (10mg) intravenously or placebo before endoscopy 30-120 min. The primary endpoint was endoscopic yield, assessed by objective gastric visualized scoring systems. Secondary end points include duration of endoscope, technical success rate, the need for second-look EGD, units of blood transfusion, length of hospital stay and 30-day rebleeding rate.
In this study, the researchers will compare 2 new tablet forms of BAY2731954 with liquid oral forms of BAY2731954. A maximum of 61 healthy volunteers aged 18 to 55 will be asked to participate. The study will have 2 parts. In part 1 researchers want to gather information how the body absorbs, distributes and excretes the drug BAY2731954 given as two different tablet formulations. Participants will take the study drugs on 3 days separated by breaks of at least 3 days between each intake. The duration of this study part will be in total of up to 6 weeks from first screening visit to follow-up visit. In part 2 of the study researchers want to study how the body absorbs, distributes and excretes the drug BAY2731954 given as two different tablet formulations with or without food or as 2 liquid oral formulations. Participants will take the study drugs on 4 days separated by breaks of at least 3 days between each intake. The duration of the second part of study part will be in total of up to 7 weeks from first screening visit to follow-up visit. During the study, researchers will collect blood and urine samples. In addition, doctors will check the participants' overall health. They will also ask the participants if they have any medical problems.
This study is open for men and women with a liver disease called nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and liver fibrosis. The purpose of the study is to find out whether a medicine called BI 456906 helps patients with NASH and liver fibrosis. The study tests 3 different doses of BI 456906 to find the dose that helps best. Participants are put into 4 groups randomly, which means by chance. There are 3 groups that each receive a different dose of BI 456906 and there is 1 group that receives placebo. BI 456906 and placebo are given as an injection under the skin once per week. The placebo injection looks like the BI 456906 injection but does not contain any medicine. Participants are in the study for a little over 1 year (60 weeks). During this time, they visit the study site several times and have some video calls in addition. At the visits, the study doctors take different measurements. To see whether the treatment works, the doctors take a very small sample of liver tissue (biopsy) from each participant at the start and at the end of the study. They also examine the liver by ultrasound and MRI. The doctors also regularly check the general health of the participants.
This is a retrospective biobank study evaluating the impact of novel genetic variants in a population of 6-mercaptopurine treated pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia patients.
This study will evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and immunogenicity of MEDI7352 in healthy participants.
The present longitudinal study aims at (i) identifying neurobiological mechanisms associated with successful social integration during the treatment of inpatients with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) and (ii) improving biomarker-based predictions of treatment response by incorporating core metrics of social integration.
The general goal of the present proposal, Progetto MOSAICO, is the identification of a multimodal panel of neuropsychological, kinematic, neurophysiological, and genetic markers associated with motor abnormalities present in ASD.
PD1-PSMA-CART in Treating Patients With Castrate-Resistant Prostate Cancer
The main objective of our study is to investigate the metabolic effects of whey protein (whey protein isolate, WPI, (Lacprodan® ISO.Water. from Arla Foods Ingredients) compared to placebo when consumed by women in risk of gestational diabetes mellitus (GMD) 30 minutes prior to an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). We will also investigate any changes in substrate metabolism and energy expenditure using indirect calorimetry. Differences in hunger and satiety parameters as well as rate of gastric emptying will also be assessed. Furthermore, we will investigate the glucose response when the women consume the intervention at home in their own environment 30 minutes before breakfast in various doses (placebo, 10, 15, 20, 30 g whey). The women will be monitored with continuous glucose monitors, activity monitors and all meals will be provided. The two study days in the laboratory will be repeated 3-9 months after pregnancy. The purpose of this is to be able to compare the metabolic response of pre-meal whey during pregnancy with the response in a not-pregnant state. The study days at home will not be repeated after pregnancy.
