Filter by:Covid-19 has the potential to affect physical, cognitive and psychological functions in multiple ways. It has been clear that a significant proportion of patients with Covid-19 develop long-term symptoms. The term post-acute Covid-19 syndrome (PACS) is now used to describe the wide range of prolonged symptoms following the infection. Patients may need specialized rehabilitation to be able to meet the complex symptoms and problems that may arise. A more specific syndrome that seems to occur more frequently than expected in the group of non-hospitalized patients who have had Covid-19 is the postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS). To evaluate the effects of physical training in patients with POTS after Covid-19 a single subject design will be used (the patient is their own control). Inidividual semistructured interviews will be performed to explore and describe the patients´ experiences of the rehabilitation intervention. Participants: Patients diagnosed with POTS after Covid-19 (N=30) will be included. Procedure and outcomes: The primary outcomes are physical activity and health-related quality of life. Secondary outcomes are: physical capacity, active standing test, Malmö-POTS-questionnaire, Anxiety and depression, fatigue, self-reported outcome measure of physical function and work ability. Initially measurements will be performed several times during a period of 2-4 weeks to obtain a baseline before the intervention starts. Then the included participants will undergo a specially designed physical training program that will be performed 3 times /week during a period of 12 weeks. The intervention of physical training will consist of different exercises to enhance muscle strength and endurance. The intervention will be individually adjusted with a progression in dose, intensity, and position. The exercise is based on a program used in a previous study. Measurements will then be repeated after completion of the intervention period. A qualitative approach, with semistructured interviews, will be used to explore the patients´ experiences of the intervention, after commence of the interventional trial.
This clinical trial compares the effects of parent/caregiver-focused programs to family-focused programs in reducing obesity risk in racial ethnic minority families. Obesity tends to run in families, thus family-based interventions have been strongly recommended. Parent and family obesity programs may reduce obesity risk and ultimately reduce the risk of obesity-related cancer.
In this phase I study, the investigators will first evaluate the safety of CAR20.19.22 T-cells in patients with B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) / chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of vericiguat in participants with chronic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), specifically those with symptomatic chronic HFrEF who have not had a recent hospitalization for heart failure or need for outpatient intravenous (IV) diuretics. The primary hypothesis is that vericiguat is superior to placebo in reducing the risk of cardiovascular death or heart failure hospitalization.
This phase III trial compares the effect of adding cabozantinib to avelumab versus avelumab alone in treating patients with urothelial cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Cabozantinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as avelumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving cabozantinib and avelumab together may further shrink the cancer or prevent it from returning/progressing.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of low-dose radiotherapy (LDRT) combined with durvalumab, etoposide, and cisplatin/carboplatin in the first-line treatment of extensive-stage small cell lung cancer.
The Pulmair Implantable Artificial Bronchus (IAB) is a device intended for implantation into the diseased bronchi of emphysema patients. The IAB is indicated for bronchoscopic treatment of adults with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)/emphysema to relieve hyperinflation and allow bidirectional ventilation of the affected lobes. The objective of this trial is to demonstrate a suitable benefit/risk profile to support a subsequent trial of the safety and effectiveness of the IAB to achieve its intended purpose. The trial will enroll 24 subjects implanted with IAB(s), at no more than three study centers.
This clinical trial evaluates the feasibility and acceptability of a mobile health device in improving oral chemotherapy adherence in women with triple negative breast cancer that has not spread to other places in the body (non-metastatic). A mobile health device, called SMRxT smart pill bottle may help doctors to remind patients to take medicine on time and monitor their symptoms.
This study will evaluate the impact of ofatumumab in Relapsing Remitting Multiple Sclerosis (RRMS) participants that are very early in the course of their disease using clinical and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) outcomes. The study will also assess changes in disease using monitoring techniques including digital biometric device use, biomarker analysis and non-conventional MRI. Select outcomes in the ofatumumab treated group will be compared to a group of Healthy participants to determine if there are similarities between the groups after the patients with MS undergo treatment with ofatumumab.
The main aim of the study is to check for side effects from TAK-771, and to check how well TAK-771 controls symptoms in Japanese participants with chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP) and multifocal motor neuropathy (MMN) The participants will be treated with TAK-771 for 45 months as a maximum. There will be many clinic visits. The number of visits will depend on the infusion cycles of study drug (every 2, 3, or 4 weeks).
