Filter by:This is an open-label, adaptive study using the P. falciparum induced blood stage malaria (IBSM) model to characterise the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) profile and safety of MMV367 (the IMP). Up to 18 participants will be enrolled in cohorts of up to 6 participants each. The study will proceed as follows for all participants: - Screening period of up to 28 days to recruit healthy adult participants. - Day 0: Intravenous inoculation with approximately 2,800 viable P. falciparum-infected red blood cells. - Days 1-3: Daily follow up via phone call or text message. - Days 4-7: Daily site visits for clinical evaluation and blood sampling to monitor malaria parasite numbers via quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). - Day 7 PM: Start of confinement within the clinical trial unit. - Day 8: Administration of a single oral dose of the IMP (MMV367). Different doses of MMV367 will be administered across and within cohorts in order to effectively characterise the PK/PD relationship. - Days 8-11: Regular clinical evaluation and blood sampling while confined to monitor malaria parasite numbers and measure MMV367 plasma concentration. - Day 11 AM: End of confinement within clinical trial unit. - Days 12-23: Outpatient follow-up for clinical evaluation and blood sampling. - Day 24: Initiation of compulsory definitive antimalarial treatment with Riamet® (artemether/lumefantrine) and/or other registered antimalarials if required. Treatment will be initiated earlier than Day 24 in the event of: - Insufficient parasite clearance following IMP dosing - Parasite regrowth following IMP dosing Characterising the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic relationship of MMV367 - Participant discontinuation/withdrawal, - Investigator's discretion in the interest of participant safety. - Day 27: End of study visit for final clinical evaluation and to ensure complete clearance of malaria parasites.
This primary purpose of this study will be to (1) examine the feasibility and acceptability of transitional care focusing on care needs of skilled nursing facility (SNF) patients with dementia and their caregivers (primary aim). The secondary purpose will be to describe the effect of the intervention on SNF patient outcomes (preparedness for discharge, quality of life, function and acute care use) and caregiver outcomes (preparedness for the caregiving role, caregiver burden and caregiver distress).
The primary goal of this study is to provide additional data regarding B and T-cell mediated responses to COVID-19 vaccines in MS patients treated with OCR and to determine which clinical and paraclinical variables correlating with vaccine immunogenicity. B-cell mediated humoral responses and adaptive T-cell mediated cellular responses were measured in patients treated with OCR who received any of the available SARS-CoV-2 vaccines, 3-4 weeks after completion of vaccination.
Sedation of severe COVID-19 disease are often complicated. We try to find a correlate for this observation by encephalographic studies.
The role of a single-dose intraoperative methadone on postoperative pain and opioid consumption in patients undergoing Surgeon Accuracy Robot Assistant cystectomy. A prospective double-blind, randomized controlled trial investigating the effect of a single-dose of intraoperative methadone in patients undergoing robotassisted cystectomy.
The purpose of this study is to examine if a new and simple method involving complete photo-protection of multivitamins only (since sampling through infusion) will result in a significant reduction of peroxide contamination of parenteral nutrition compared to standard method of parenteral nutrition preparation and infusion in extremely preterm infants.
The objective of this proposal is to advance medication development for alcohol use disorder by examining the efficacy and mechanisms of action of minocycline, a neuroimmune modulator, as a potential treatment. This study has important clinical implications, as the available treatments for alcohol use disorder are only modestly effective and testing novel medications is a high research priority.
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a highly prevalent, morbid condition. Anticoagulation to prevent thromboembolic strokes is a foremost priority in AF but adherence is challenging for patients and lapses in anticoagulation are common. Chronic disease self-management (CDSM) is a recognized program to enhance self-efficacy and improve adherence, quality of life, and patient-centered health outcomes. Rural patients with AF experience increased vulnerability to adverse outcomes due to geographic and social isolation, poor health care access, and limited health literacy. This study uses an innovative, scalable CDSM intervention to improve anticoagulation adherence in rural patients with AF.
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common, morbid condition with increasing prevalence. Poor health-related quality of life is common in AF. Patients experience debilitating symptoms and challenging adherence to long-term (possibly lifelong) anticoagulation. The increased risks of stroke, heart failure and mortality associated with AF persist even with optimal treatment. Morbidity in AF is further exacerbated by social factors. Limited health literacy carries challenges of learning a specialized terminology and navigating specialized treatments. In multiple cardiovascular diseases, self-care has demonstrated improvement in self-efficacy, health-related quality of life, symptom burden, and health care utilization - essential components of patient success with AF. Selfcare can provide the critical skills to navigate a challenging chronic disease and improve patient-centered outcomes. Delivery of self-care as a mobile health intervention can complement standard care with a longitudinal intervention to improve patient-centered strategies for AF. While self-care interventions for AF have focused foremost on self-monitoring of anticoagulation,self-care has demonstrated its potential to meet the "triple aim" of improved patient experience, reduced health care utilization, and lower costs.
