Filter by:Observational, multicentre, retrospective study on patients taken care according to the national guidelines. The objective is to define, after the diagnosis confirmation, the frequency of PD-L1 expression in patients with large-cell lung neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC), whatever the stage of the disease, and to correlate this parameter to clinical data at the time of diagnosis, therapeutic response and survival. Large-cell NECs present a bad prognostic and there is no evidence of treatment for these patients with advanced disease in second ligne of treatment at that time. To demonstrate the PD-L1 expression in this type of cancer might have a major therapeutic impact in a close future to access immunotherapies.
A 26 week trial of TransCon hGH, a long-acting growth hormone product, administered once-a-week. Approximately 150 children (males and females) with growth hormone deficiency (GHD) will be included. All study participants will receive TransCon hGH. This is a global trial that will be conducted in, but not limited to, the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.
This is a single arm, single center, non-randomized, phase II trial of stage IIB/III TNBC. Patients received neoadjuvant chemotherapy with cisplatin (50 mg/m2) in combination with doxorubicin (50 mg/m2) and cyclophosphamide (500 mg/m2) every 21 days and for a total of 6 cycles. After surgery, adjuvant chemotherapy consisting of docetaxel (75 mg/m2) every 21 days was further provided for 4 cycles. Primary outcome was pathological complete response in the breast and axilla (pCR; ypT0ypN0). Secondary outcomes were safety, disease-free survival and overall survival.
This is a pilot study that investigates the efficacy and safety of budesonide as an immune suppressing agent for liver transplant recipients in the early post-transplant period. The primary end-point is rates of acute cellular rejection within first 24 weeks post-liver transplant. Secondary end points include rates of new onset diabetes after transplant and safety of budesonide. The study is structured as a prospective clinical trial. After receiving 4 days of intravenous corticosteroids on liver transplant post-operative days 0 through 3, subjects will be started on standard immunosuppression plus enteric coated budesonide (study drug) in place of standard immune suppression plus prednisone (standard of care). Study drug will be tapered over 12 weeks in accordance with the existing standard of care immune suppression protocol. Subjects will be followed in outpatient transplant clinic for 24 weeks. The purpose of the study is to conduct a pilot study to generate rates and effect size that can be used in a subsequent equivalent trial. A total of 20 subjects will be enrolled to receive the standard immunosuppression plus budesonide and their outcomes will be compared to 20 controls receiving standard immunosuppression plus prednisone (standard of care). The use of controls is to generate rate and variability that can be compared with the rate obtained from patients that receive study drug by examining the 95% confidence band.
Quadriceps and hamstring muscle strenghts have important role in returning to sport after ACL reconstruction and one of the main focus of rehabilitation is to improve strenght of these muscles. With the strenghtening of the contralateral limb (cross-over training) we aimed to improve the strenght of the quadriceps
In patients undergoing coronary bypass surgery; 10% topical lidocaine administered endotracheally before intubation is to investigate the effect of hemodynamic response and EKG paramater after intubation.
This is a phase IIa, open label, single arm, and prospective study of hormone therapy-naïve men with oligometastatic prostate cancer to the bone. The study will test if treating the primary tumor sites and 5 or fewer sites of bone-only metastasis with external beam radiation with concomitant systemic Radium-223 will reduce the utilization of androgen deprivation therapy, improve QOL and improve OS over a the comparator cohort of SWOG intermittent ADT historic cohort.
The PIPAC nab-pac study is designed to examine the maximal tolerated dose of albumin bound nanoparticle paclitaxel (nab-pac, Abraxane) administered with repeated pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (PIPAC), in a multicentre, multinational phase I trial.
Use of Artificial Intelligent (AI) technology to assist audiologists in programming cochlear implants.
Two Phase III trials showed superiority in terms of efficacy and tolerance of nivolumab in second-line treatment compared to docetaxel in metastatic NSCLC in the general population, so it is important to evaluate this treatment in PLWHIV (Patient Living With HIV) in maximum security conditions, taking into account their specificities and complex underlying immunological status. As NSCLC in PLWHIV is a rare tumour, a phase 2 trial, using DCR (Disease Control Rate) data, would be able to recruit a sufficient number of patients, in a reasonable period of time, to provide a proof of concept of the safety and efficacy of nivolumab in this population. Therefore, we think that an open-label, one arm phase 2 trial, with a rapid accrual, would be currently a crucial approach and a window of opportunity to explore whether nivolumab could find its place in PLWHIV with NSCLC. Such a trial is typically a trial for an academic sponsor, experienced in PLWHIV with NSCLC, which previously showed its ability to recruit patients with such a rare disease as the IFCT did with the IFCT-1001 CHIVA trial, testing carboplatin plus pemetrexed followed by pemetrexed.
