Filter by:Participants of this study are adults with GEP-NETs and/or acromegaly who were using the Ipsen lanreotide syringe and have transitioned in the last 6 months to the Pharmathen lanreotide syringe, having received at least two injections using the Pharmathen syringe. GEP-NETs are abnormal growths that develop in the digestive system, including the stomach, intestines, and pancreas. These tumors arise from special cells called neuroendocrine cells, which are found in these organs and release hormones to regulate various bodily functions. GEP-NETs can be slow-growing, and symptoms may vary depending on their location and size. Acromegaly is a condition where a person's body produces too much growth hormone. This excess hormone can cause certain body parts, like the hands, feet, and face, to enlarge over time. It typically occurs because of a tumor on the pituitary gland in the brain, which is responsible for regulating hormones. Acromegaly can lead to various health issues if not treated, but medications or surgery can often help manage the condition. Long-acting somatostatin analogs (LA-SSAs) are indicated for patients with Gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs) and acromegaly who are not eligible for surgery or when surgery fails to achieve remission. Data for this study will be collected after the treatment switch from the Ipsen lanreotide syringe to the Pharmathen lanreotide syringe has occurred, using one round of one-to-one qualitative telephone and/or videoconference interviews with patients. Interviews will last 45 minutes and be carried out in the local language of the participant's country. The main aim of this study is to capture the patient experience of the Ipsen lanreotide syringe and their experience with the Pharmathen lanreotide syringe.
Investigators will evaluate the safety of CG0070 for the treatment of patients with Intermediate-Risk Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer (IR NMIBC).
This study will determine if defecation posture, when using a defecation posture modification device (DPMD), improves ease with first bowel movement following pelvic reconstructive surgery, specifically posterior repair.
The goal of this clinical study is to learn more about KTE-X19, and how safe and effective it is in adult Japanese participants with relapsed/refractory (r/r) Mantle Cell Lymphoma (MCL) or r/r B-precursor Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (B-ALL). The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the efficacy of KTE-X19, as measured by: - Objective response rate (ORR) per investigator assessment, in adult Japanese participants with r/r MCL - Overall complete remission (OCR) defined as complete remission (CR) and complete remission with incomplete hematologic recovery (CRi) per investigator assessment, in adult Japanese participants with r/r ALL
This is an open-label, multicenter, phase 1a/1b clinical study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary antitumor activity of BGB-43395, a cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (CDK4) inhibitor, as monotherapy or in combination with fulvestrant, letrozole, or other combination partners in Chinese participants with hormone receptor positive (HR+) and human epidermal growth factor 2 negative (HER2-) breast cancer (BC) and other advanced or metastatic solid tumors.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of SCTC21C in patients with CD38+ hematologic malignancies
This is a non-interventional, cross-sectional, multicentric, and nationwide study, based on primary and secondary data collection.
Participants will receive study treatment with agenT-797, botensilimab, balstilimab, ramucirumab, and paclitaxel. When participants start each agent will depend on how their disease is affecting them.
Burden: Post-Kala-Azar Dermal Leishmaniasis (PKDL) commonly follows visceral leishmaniasis (VL) caused by Leishmania donovani. It is characterized by skin lesions in which parasites can be identified, in a patient who is otherwise fully recovered from VL or exposed to L. donovani (LD) infection. It occurs in the Indian subcontinent (mainly India and Bangladesh) as well as in Africa (mainly Sudan). It is now established that PKDL patients play an important role in transmission of LD parasite where chronic PKDL patients have been implicated in major VL outbreaks in the past. Though VL cases are in decline due to extensive programmes conducted by NKEP, PKDL cases are in the rise and VL:PKDL ratio has risen from 1:0.47 to 1:1.21 from 2016 to 2020. In this current situation, elimination of PKDL cases is of crucial importance in the current VL elimination efforts in Bangladesh as well as in the Indian subcontinent. Knowledge gap: Currently there are no satisfactory treatments for any forms of PKDL. Both miltefosine and Ambisome® as monotherapy have shown to be effective. However, with the current recommended scheme there are some drawbacks such as the length of the treatment with miltefosine alone (8-12 weeks), toxicity related to it; a high dose Ambisome® (total dose of 20 mg/kg) given frequently in 4 divided dosage often causes adverse events (e.g. pancytopania, hypokalemia, increased creatinine level etc.). There is also the potential risk for development of resistance with miltefosine as monotherapy. Ivermectin has been proven to have a significant leishmanicidal effect by several experimental studies at higher doses without significant toxicity and may offer shorter duration of treatment thus preventing prolonged hospitalization. Another possible advantage is reduction of cost. These principles can be applied to PKDL, where the need for an ambulatory treatment with a highly safe, efficacious and user friendly regimen is even more pressing as the patients feel otherwise healthy, except for the rashes. Relevance: This study aims primarily to improve current treatment options. In addition, this will be the first human study ever in PKDL in relation to Ivermectin, in which outcome will be described in clinical, parasitological and immunological terms. Ultimately this study findings will help National Kala-Azar Elimination Program (NKAEP) to adopt specific strategies for elimination of PKDL cases. Hypothesis (if any): Oral ivermectin in multiple doses is safe and more effective than Miltefosine for the treatment of PKDL cases. Objectives: To measure the safety and efficacy of Ivermectin monotherapy regimen (60 mg oral on five consecutive days, for three consecutive months) in comparison to oral Miltefosine allometric dose for twelve weeks, for treating PKDL patients in Bangladesh. Methods: This will be a comparative, open label, non-blinded, individually randomized, proof-of-concept Clinical Trial to assess the safety and efficacy of oral Ivermectin monotherapy (5 x 12 mg daily at a total dose of 60 mg per month for three consecutive months, 180 mg in total) and Miltefosine monotherapy (50 mg twice daily for 12 weeks) in treating PKDL patients in Bangladesh. All participants will be recruited at SKKRC, Mymensingh with due consent. All patients will be followed up for 12 months. Cure assessment will be performed. Outcome measures/variables: Safety and efficacy of Ivermectin for PKDL treatment will be determined.
Incisional hernia related to the umbilical trocar site is probably the most frequent complication after laparoscopic surgical procedures. However, this is an underestimated sequelae of laparoscopic surgery which may involve an important morbidity and an increase in healthcare costs. The incidence of incisional trocar site hernia ranges from 20 to 35% of patients after laparoscopic surgery depending on the different investigations. Prophylactic meshes have been tried in an attempt to reduce the incidence of this complication in obese patients. In that sense, suture-meshes can be an alternative to conventional meshes to improve the incidence of incisional hernias. INDURATE TRIAL aims to test if suture-mesh is capable of reducing the incidence of incisional hernia in patients with risk factors for the development of this frequent complication when compared with conventional monofilament sutures.
