Filter by:This is a Phase 2, open-label, multiple-dose, dose-escalation study to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of NBI-74788 in approximately 12 pediatric female and male subjects (14 to 17 years of age) with a documented medical diagnosis of classic 21-hydroxylase deficiency congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH).
Objectives: The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of photobiomodulation therapies on root resorption compared with the placebo group. Materials and Methods: 30 patients, who were admitted to the …………. University Faculty of Dentistry Orthodontics Department for treatment, with an indication of upper right 1st premolar tooth extraction was included. Before the individuals' orthodontic treatment, 0.022 slot MBT brackets and tubes were placed on the maxillary 1st premolar and molar. A 150g buccal tipping force was applied to the 1st premolar. Individuals were then randomly divided into 3 groups. For the first group; laser application was performed with a 810 nm GaAlAs laser device at 0,3,7,14,21 and 28 days to 8 J/cm2. Second group; an LED application according to the manufacturer's instructions with a 850 nm wavelength and 20 mW/cm2 output power for 10 minutes per day during the experiment. Third group; a placebo therapy was completed whereby a laser device that did not make active pulses was used. At the end of four weeks, the amount of root surface resorption was compared using micro-CT imaging after the extraction of the teeth.
This phase II trial studies how well F-18 fluoroethyltyrosine (fluoroethyltyrosine) works in detecting tumors in participants with intracranial tumors that have come back. FET accumulates in malignant cells within intracranial neoplasms and can be used to detect recurrent disease and characterize the grade of glial neoplasms. Imaging agents such as FET can help oncologist to see the tumor better during a positron emission tomography (PET) scan.
This study aims to investigate the effects of high-intensity noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV), as compared with low-intensity NPPV, on hypercapnia, consciousness, inspiratory muscle effort, dyspnea, NPPV tolerance, inflammatory response, adverse events and other outcomes in patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
This is a prospective, open label, two-centre, randomized, controlled, two-stage, phase Ib/IIa study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, drug-drug interaction and bactericidal activity of BTZ-043 administered orally once daily over 14 days to participants with newly diagnosed, uncomplicated, smear-positive, drug-susceptible pulmonary tuberculosis. The primary objective is to assess the safety and tolerability of BTZ-043 given over 14 days by evaluation of adverse events during treatment and follow-up period in patients with newly diagnosed, uncomplicated, smear-positive, drug-susceptible pulmonary tuberculosis.
There is sufficient evidence that military service members markedly underutilize behavioral health care services, in part, due to stigma. This study proposes to examine a novel application of a cognitive bias modification (CBM) intervention designed to target stigma-related cognitions among service members at elevated suicide risk not currently engaged in behavioral health treatment.
The study investigates non-alcoholic fatty liver disease from serial liver biopsies collected from participants referred for assessment of bariatric surgery, RYGB or SG.
A multi center, open label, prospective study that will include up to 100 subjects with Type 1 Diabetes treated with Multiple Daily Injections (MDI) of insulin according to a predefined sliding scale plan or carbohydrate ratio (CR) and correction factor (CF) plan, and Self-Monitoring of Blood Glucose (SMBG) or Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM). The study will include screening, a 3-4 weeks run-in period and a 6 weeks intervention period. Subjects will be asked to record their insulin delivery during basal/bolus insulin treatment (using dedicated apps and/or connected pens) and their daily activities (meals, physical activity etc.) using electronic log (implemented on Dedicated Apps), for a total period of 9-10 weeks.
Postoperative nausea and vomiting(PONV) refers to at least one nausea, retching or vomiting after operation, or any combination of the above symptoms. The incidence of PONV in high-risk patients can reach 61%-79%. PONV can not only cause dizziness and headache, but also cause disturbance of acid-base balance of water and electrolyte, wound dehiscence, formation of incisional hernia, aspiration, and aspiration pneumonia, leading to prolonged hospitalization, increased medical expenses, and reduced surgical satisfaction. At present, the guidelines for prevention and treatment of PONV and the consensus of experts suggest that identifying high-risk patients according to Apfel risk score ≥3 points, reducing baseline PONV risks, and implementing multimodal PONV prophylaxis. However, the incidence of PONV in high-risk patients is still as high as 20% even if 2-3 drugs are combined used for prevention and treatment. It is difficult to further reduce the incidence of PONV by adding different kinds or dosages of drugs, while drug-related side effects are increasing gradually. Acupuncture (electroacupuncture, transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulationTEAS, transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation, etc.) is a safe, effective, non-toxic side-effect non-drug treatment method. A large number of studies have confirmed that acupuncture can reduce the incidence of PONV, and it is expected to become an important supplement to drug treatment of PONV, but there are quality defects such as small sample size, inaccurate intervention and so on. At the same time, most acupuncture studies aim to compare the efficacy of PONV with drug therapy, without considering the clinical situation, using acupuncture treatment based on drug standard treatment to further reduce the incidence of PONV, thus limiting the clinical application value of acupuncture. On the basis of standardized drug prevention and treatment of PONV, TEAS will be used to further reduce the incidence of PONV and promote rapid recovery of patients. This study will strongly demonstrate that acupuncture can break through the bottleneck of drug treatment and provide evidence for the application of acupuncture in modern perioperative clinical medicine.
Open-label, non-randomized, dose escalation trial of AAV2hAQP1 administered via Stensen's duct to a single or both parotid glands in subjects with radiation-induced xerostomia The objectives are to evaluate the safety and identify either a maximum tolerated dose or a maximum feasible dose of a single dose of AAV2hAQP1 infused into one or both parotid glands: To evaluate subject improvement of xerostomia symptoms, to evaluate the increase in parotid gland salivary output after treatment with AAV2hAQP1, to evaluate additional efficacy outcomes.
