Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacodynamics, safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy of RO7204239, a humanized monoclonal antibody that binds to human latent myostatin, in ambulant adult participants with facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD).
As a follow-up to the RAPIDIRON Trial (NCT05358509), and in combination with the RAPIDIRON-KIDS Study (NCT05504863), this study will involve infants of RAPIDIRON Trial participants recruited at one site in Karnataka and is designed to implement a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) protocol and incorporate neuroimaging measures. Implementation of this study will promote an understanding of the effects on fetal and neonatal brain development, including iron deposition in brain tissues, when a woman is treated for iron deficiency anemia (IDA) by either (a) providing her oral iron tablets and instructions for use; or (b) administering a single-dose IV iron infusion for the treatment of IDA during pregnancy.
SV-102 is intended to overcome the complex and multifactorial nature of the mechanisms mediating tumor immune evasion, by the use of a combination of therapeutic agents that elicit multiple immuno-pharmacologic effects.
The main aim of the study is to check if TAK-625 improves symptoms of Progressive Familial Intrahepatic Cholestasis (PFIC), side effect from the study treatment or TAK-625, and how much TAK-625 stays in their blood over time. This will help the study sponsor (Takeda) to work out the best dose to give people in the future. The participants will be treated with TAK-625 for up to the end of study (about 34 months). Participants will visit their study clinic 15 times from the start of study. After 15 times visits, participants will visit their study clinic every 12 weeks up to the end of study.
Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) remains the most common systemic disorder associated with pediatric uveitis. Studies estimate that 28-67% of patients with JIA-associated uveitis develop ocular complications, with 12% developing poor visual outcome. The only means of improving long term effects of uveitis, is early and aggressive anti-inflammatory treatment, including biologics.
This is a Phase 1 dose-escalation study of PRT3645, a Cyclin-dependent Kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) inhibitor, in patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors. The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety, tolerability, dose limiting toxicity, and to determine maximally tolerated dose and recommended phase 2 dose to be used in subsequent development of PRT3645.
Prescribing of potentially unsafe medications for older adults is extremely common; benzodiazepines and sedative hypnotics are, for example, key drug classes frequently implicated in adverse health consequences for vulnerable older adults, such as confusion or sedation, leading to hospitalizations, falls, and fractures. Fortunately, most of these consequences are preventable. Physicians' lack of awareness of alternatives, ambiguous practice guidelines, and perceived pressure from patients or caregivers are among the reasons why these drugs are used more than might be optimal. Reducing inappropriate use of these drugs may be achieved through decision support tools for providers that are embedded in electronic health record (EHR) systems. While EHR strategies are widely used to support the informational needs of providers, these tools have demonstrated only modest effectiveness at improving prescribing. The effectiveness of these tools could be enhanced by leveraging principles of behavioral economics and related sciences.
This is a single-patient, phase I/II clinical trial that aims to evaluate the potential of bacteriophage therapy to treat and prevent the recurrence of a drug-resistant urinary tract infection with serious long-term effects. This study will follow a minimally invasive phage therapy approach consisting of oral, topical (opening of the urethra) and bladder installations of a 3-phage cocktail comprised of HP3, HP3.1 and ES19.
Neovascular or wet age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) is a degenerative ocular disease associated with the infiltration of abnormal blood vessels in the retina from the underlying choroid layer and is a leading cause of blindness in patients over 65 years of age. The abnormal angiogenic process in nAMD is stimulated and modulated by vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). Treatment of nAMD requires frequent intravitreal (IVT) injections of VEGF inhibitors (anti-VEGF) administered every 4-16 weeks. ADVM-022 (AAV.7m8-aflibercept) is a gene therapy product being developed for the treatment of nAMD and offers the potential for sustained intraocular expression of aflibercept following a single IVT injection. ADVM-022 is designed to reduce the current treatment burden which often results in undertreatment and vision loss in patients with nAMD receiving anti-VEGF therapy in clinical practice.
This is a phase 2, double-masked, randomized, placebo-controlled, dose-response study. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of QA102 oral capsules on the development of soft drusen, visual acuity (VA), and geographic atrophy (GA) or choroidal neovascularization (CNV) or the progression of GA in subjects with intermediate to advanced dry AMD.
