Filter by:This randomized, multicenter, double-blind, phase 3 study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of the combination of cadonilimab (AK104) and pulocimab (AK109) and paclitaxel compared with paclitaxel in patients with advanced gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma who failed first-line immunochemotherapy.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test and compare different surgical techniques in patients with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries. The main questions it aims to answer are: - What are the optimal criteria for selecting between single-bundle ACL reconstruction combined with anterolateral ligament (ALL) reconstruction versus double-bundle ACL reconstruction combined with ALL reconstruction? - How do these two surgical techniques compare in terms of post-operative knee stability, functional outcomes, and reducing re-tear rates? Participants will: - Undergo pre-operative MRI imaging, ligament stability testing, and motion analysis evaluations - Be randomly assigned to either: - Single-bundle ACL + ALL reconstruction - Double-bundle ACL + ALL reconstruction - Receive the assigned surgical procedure - Participate in post-operative follow-ups, ligament stability testing, and motion analysis at 6 months and 1 year Researchers will compare the single-bundle ACL + ALL group and the double-bundle ACL + ALL group to see if one technique demonstrates superior knee stability, functional outcomes (e.g. return to sport ability), and lower ACL re-tear rates.
Breech delivery is one of the mail topic in emergency obstetrics for Italian Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology. Formal frontal lecture and digital learning represent nowadays the two typical learning methods. A bedside evaluation it's not feasible due to rarity of such emergency, due to the common senior physicians involvement when it occurs, and due to medico-legal risks. Mannequin scenario represents the best way of skill evaluation
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) offers a high-resolution intravascular imaging modality to accurately assess vessel and lumen geometry and identify the hallmark of a culprit lesion including plaque disruption and thrombus. In addition, the incorporation of the MLD MAX algorithm into daily practice guides an efficient and easily-memorable workflow for optimized OCT-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with drug-eluting stents (DES). Regarding the antithrombotic therapy after revascularization, the 2023 ESC guidelines recommend the P2Y12 receptor inhibitor de-escalation (i.e. switching from ticagrelor to clopidogrel) in ACS patients may be considered as an alternative strategy to the default treatment regimen in order to reduce the risk of bleeding events. Based on the above conclusions, we designed a single-center, prospective, randomized controlled, exploratory study trial to evaluate whether the utility of OCT for guiding PCI with DES followed by antiplatelet de-escalation therapy could further reduce the stent-induced intimal hyperplasia of STEMI patients after stent implantation.
This study aims to investigate the clinical performance of the Osia 3 Sound Processor in comparison to the Osia 2 Sound Processor in adults with mixed or conductive hearing loss or single-sided deafness implanted with an Osia implant. Participants will attend four study visits, where they will complete various hearing assessments using the Osia sound processors.
Cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) 4/6 inhibitors are a class of agents recently introduced in the clinic for the treatment of advanced hormone receptor-positive (HR+) and HER2-negative (HER2-) BC. Palbociclib, ribociclib and abemaciclib have all been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Medicines Agency among other regulatory bodies
The use of antibiotic therapy is common in intensive care units and primarily involves beta-lactams. Its optimal implementation is made difficult by the pharmacokinetic changes inherent in critically ill patients. Despite the current recommendations from the French Society of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care (SFAR) and the French Society of Pharmacology and Therapeutics (SFPT), there are no recommendations on prescription modalities for patients under veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO). The use of antibiotic therapy is common in VA-ECMO patients and their pharmacokinetic variability factors are then exacerbated. We aim to conduct a prospective, multicenter, interventional study designed to identify predictive factors for failure to achieve therapeutic target circulating concentrations of beta-lactams in patients under VA-ECMO treated with one of the studied beta-lactams
This research investigates the effectiveness and safety of large neutral amino acid (LNAA) supplementation in patients with classical phenylketonuria (PKU). Advanced brain imaging techniques alongside comprehensive neuropsychological and functional assessments will be employed. Short-term and long-term follow-up of participants will be conducted.
This phase Ib trial tests the safety, side effects, and effectiveness of botensilimab, and balstilimab in combination with a fasting mimicking diet and high dose vitamin C in treating patients with KRAS-mutant metastatic colorectal cancer. Botensilimab and balstilimab are monoclonal antibodies that may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. KRAS is protein found on some tumor cells that is involved in the growth of tumor cells. KRAS mutant cells have been found to be more sensitive to vitamin C induced growth suppression in the presence of low-sugar (glucose). A fasting mimicking diet, a plant-based, calorie reduced, low-sugar diet alternating with refeeding periods, may positively change the way the body responds to cancer treatment. Vitamin C is a nutrient that the body needs in small amounts to function and stay healthy. It is an antioxidant that that can help prevent cell damage and may block growth and spread of tumor cells. Botensilimab and balstilimab in combination with a fasting mimicking diet and high dose vitamin C may be safe, tolerable and effective in treating patients with KRAS-mutant metastatic colorectal cancer.
The purpose of the study is to provide immunosuppression weaning and/or monitoring for an additional 12-months to evaluate the safety and efficacy of belatacept monotherapy in patients previously enrolled in the clinical trial: "Use of donor derived-cell free DNA (AlloSure) and gene expression profiling (AlloMap Kidney) to facilitate Belatacept monotherapy in kidney transplant patients."
