Filter by:The aim of this research is to create a prosthetic system that will automatically adjust the fit of the socket and create a well-fitting prosthesis for people with leg amputations who experience volume fluctuations when using their prosthesis.
Our main objective is to evaluate the effect of Ocoxin-Viusid on the quality of life of patients with advanced stomach cancer and esophagogastric junction. The Ocoxin-Viusid nutritional supplement is expected to improve quality of life and tolerance to treatment with Chemotherapy.
This study will look at the change in participant's body weight from the start to the end of the study. This is to compare the effect on body weight in people taking semaglutide (a new medicine) and people taking "dummy" medicine. In addition to taking the medicine, the participant will have talks with study staff about healthy food choices, how to be more physically active and what a participant can do to lose weight. The participant will get semaglutide for the first 20 weeks. Then the participant will get either semaglutide or "dummy" medicine - which treatment the participant gets after the 20 weeks is decided by chance. The participants will need to take 1 injection once a week. The study medicine is injected with a thin needle in a skin fold in the stomach, thigh or upper arm. The study will last for about 1.5 years.
This study will look at the change in participants' body weight from the start to the end of the study. The weight loss in participants taking semaglutide (a new medicine) will be compared to the weight loss of participants taking "dummy" medicine. In addition to taking the medicine, participants will have talks with study staff about healthy food choices, how to be more physically active and what you can do to lose weight. Participants will either get semaglutide or "dummy" medicine - which treatment participants get, is decided by chance. Participants will need to take 1 injection once a week. The study medicine is injected with a thin needle in a skin fold in the stomach, thigh or upper arm. The study has two phases: A main phase and an extension phase.The main phase will last for about 1.5 years. Participants will have 15 clinic visits and 10 phone calls with the study doctor. Extension phase: Approximately 300 participants will continue in the extension phase in the following countries only: Canada, Germany, the UK and selected sites in the US and Japan. These participants will be in the study for about 2.5 years.They will not receive treatment, but will attend another 5 follow-up visits with the study doctor.
This study compares the efficacy of 2 doses of brexpiprazole with placebo in participants with agitation associated with dementia of the Alzheimer's type.
This open labelled first in human dose phase 1/2a study is designed to evaluate safety, feasibility and efficacy of multiple dosing with individualised VB10.NEO and bempegaldesleukin (NKTR-214) immunotherapy in patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumours.
This research study aims to evaluate the relation between non-invasive ventilation and feeding tolerance in preterms with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS). To this purpose a multicenter randomized controlled trial was designed. It will involve 13 neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) in Italy and will be coordinated by the NICU of the University of Turin. The study focuses on the impact of two non-invasive respiratory support techniques (NCPAP and HHHFNC) on feeding intolerance and gastrointestinal complications to identify which technique is the most effective and safe in preterms with RDS. Further aim is to identify which technique could be the most suitable for full enteral feeding achievement and acquisition of oral feeding. Improving enteral feeding tolerance and promoting oral feeding could improve clinical outcomes and reduce risks and costs of prolonged hospital stay. Further aim is to evaluate the response to NCPAP and HHHFNC in the treatment of RDS, focusing on a population of extremely low preterms.
With funding from the Candian Cancer Society, the Men's Healthy Eating Active Living (MHEAL) project began the development, evaluation, and optimization of a program called POWERPLAY to promote men's health at work.
Peer co-led education describes educators who are expert patients, user representatives or former patients, participating and teaching in educational interventions in cooperation with health care professionals. Peer co-led education is included in the Norwegian national guidelines for treatment of mental disorders, but despite some promising results for the treatment of other conditions, still little is known about the efficacy of peer co-led educational group interventions interventions for adults with attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). This pilot trial will evaluate patient satisfaction with and preliminary efficacy of a 2-session peer co-led educational group program designed to address specific challenges faced by adults diagnosed with ADHD at an outpatient clinics in mid-Norway.
The investigators are proposing a randomized pilot feasibility study to evaluate the effects of galantamine versus placebo on preventing relapse to opioid use following tapering from methadone or buprenorphine maintenance (Medication Assisted Treatment, or MAT) among adults with opioid use disorder, with additional behavioral therapy (web-based cognitive behavioral therapy) provided across all conditions to help individuals successfully transition from MAT to a drug-free state.
