Filter by:This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of oxidative phosphorylation inhibitor IACS-010759 (IACS-010759) in treating patients with lymphoma that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory) or solid tumors that have spread to other places in the body (advanced/metastatic) or cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). IACS-010759 may stop the growth of cancer or tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
The primary objective of this study is to investigate the effect of 5 mg KHK2375 on progression free survival (PFS) when administered orally at weekly intervals in combination with exemestane in a placebo-controlled, double-blind comparative study in subjects with advanced or recurrent hormone receptor-positive breast cancer. The secondary objectives are to investigate the effect of on overall survival (OS) and the antitumor effect and to evaluate the pharmacokinetics and safety.
Human Tc17 cells (IL-17-producing CD8+ T cells) have been found to contribute to different kinds of human inflammatory and malignant diseases. Previous studies indicate that Tc17 cells can convert to Tc1 cells (IFN-γ-producing CD8+ T cells) in tumor bearing mice to exert anti-tumor effect. Base on these results in murine models, human Tc17 may have potential in developing cancer immunotherapy. However, there is limited evidence to reveal the characteristics and functional plasticity of human Tc17 cells. In this proposal, we aim to optimize the differentiation of Tc17 cells and then investigate whether the reprograming of Tc17 to Tc1 cells can promote the anti-tumor cytotoxicity. Preliminarily, we isolated CD8+ T cells from the peripheral blood mononuclear cells of healthy donors to induce Tc17 differentiation. Human CD8+ T cells were stimulated with anti-CD3/anti-CD28 antibodies, TGF-β, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-23, IL-2, anti-IFN-γ, and anti-IL-4 antibodies. After 10 days in culture, there were 4% of IL-17A+IFN-γ- and 7% of IL-17A+IFN-γ+ CD8+ T cells. However, IFN-γ+ CD8+ T cells still represented high percentage, although it's significantly lower than that in Tc1 cells. Our preliminary study demonstrated that Tc17 cells expressed lower levels of cytotoxic molecules than Tc1 cells. We will further test if the expressions of cytotoxic molecules, including perforin and granzyme B, and EOMES will be enhanced by various cytokines. Ultimately, we will evaluate the functional plasticity of Tc17 cells under various cytokine stimulation. Collectively, success of this project will establish more insight for human Tc17 cells and provide the information for future developing human CD8+ T cell-mediate immunotherapy.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine whether whole body vibration with plyometric training has effect on physical performance parameters and balance also this study searched for if vibration support additional benefits to normal plyometric training. Methods: 24 elite basketball players divided into two group as 12 players with the mean age of 24 ± 6,96 years (Study Group) and 12 players with the mean age of 22,45 ± 5,22 years (Control Group). Plyometric training were applied to study group on whole body vibration platform for 6 weeks (2 days/week) with routine basketball training, in control group plyometric training were applied on whole body vibration platform with the similar period of time but platform had been closed. All the assessments (physical measurement, vertical and horizontal jump tests, one-repetition maximum (1-RM) half squat strength test, 20 m speed test, T agility test, sit and reach flexibility test, star excursion balance test) were applied before and after 6 weeks plyometric training for both groups.
Phase II clinical trial on the combination of avelumab and axitinib for the treatment of patients with recurrent glioblastoma (histologically confirmed WHO grade IV glioma), at documented recurrence/progression following prior treatment with surgery, radiation therapy and temozolomide.
The main objective of this study is to describe the incidence of postoperative residual paralysis (mean train-of-four <90%) when weaning from the ventilator in patients admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) after elective cardiac surgery. Train-of-four monitoring is a widely used term for the peripheral nerve stimulation used in neuromuscular blockade monitoring. When the patient is ready for weaning from the ventilator, an ICU doctor will perform a measurement of the train-of-four at the thumb with a neuromuscular transmission monitor. Every value below 90% will be considered as residual paralysis and treated appropriately by means of a reversal agent.
The proposed regulatory post-marketing surveillance (PMS) study will be planned to collect the safety data of aflibercept intravitreal injection in patients with wet Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD) in real-life treatment practice The primary objective is: - To collect safety data in wet AMD patients treated with intravitreal aflibercept injection The secondary objective is: - To determine how disease activity is monitored including type and frequency of ocular tests and frequency of injections
The main objective of this study is to analyse sexual behavior of HIV + MSM in Bordeaux, who have sexually contracted hepatitis C between January 1st 2013, to January 31, 2017. These data will bring some improvement about prevention and maybe reduced the hepatitis C incidence.
Post-operative cognitive dysfunction is defined as a decrease in cognitive functions which develop following surgery and anesthesia administration that can last up to weeks or even months after surgery. In this study, our main objective was to investigate the effect of preoperative hospitalisation period on early post operative cognitive dysfunction development and its risk factors in patients who underwent total hip replacement surgery for hip fractures under regional anesthesia.
This is a longitudinal, multi-center study to be conducted in at least five institutions from the private surgeon offices. These surgeons will collect data from X-rays, wound complications \and hardware complications.
