Filter by:The goal of this study is to investigate that a common cholesterol lowering agent (atorvastatin) alone or combining with a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (aspirin) would reduce the risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) in high-risk individuals with Lynch syndrome.
This is a Phase I/II. proof of concept, open label, two-dose, dose escalation study of NM-002 in adult patients with SBS who previously responded to exenatide. NM-002 is planned to be administered twice, at up to 3 different dose levels, in up to 3 cohorts, each consisting of 3-4 patients. Doses will be administered on Days 1 and 15 by subcutaneous injection. Patients will be monitored for their usage of parenteral supplementation, and will fill out a daily diary for their symptoms of SBS. Urine output will be measured on a daily basis. Patients will be followed for 6 weeks after the second dose.
This is an open label phase II study of treatment with LEAF-4L6715 in patients who experience severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) due to COVID-19, Sepsis or other Causes. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the improvement in PaO2/FiO2 by more than 25% in patients treated with LEAF-4L6715.
Exploring epigenetic mechanisms of Myalgic Encephalomyelitis / Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) is crucial to understand the mechanisms underlying its pathophysiology. Three potential candidates have been selected (BDNF, COMT, and HDAC genes). DNA methylation in the promoter regions of those genes will be explored. The investigators designed a randomised controlled trial and will enrol 70 patients with ME/CFS and 35 age-, sex-, and BMI-matched healthy controls. Both groups will be randomised in 2 groups and receive either one session of aerobic exercise or a validated test designed to trigger mental stress and mental fatigue. The primary aim is to assess genetic and epigenetic mechanisms of BDNF, COMT and HDAC genes in response to exercise and the stress task.
While international guidelines have indicated that use of a routine invasive strategy was favored for high-risk patients with NSTE-ACS and for all STE- ACS, the lower risk patients successfully reperfused and carrefully selected may perhaps not benefit of this systematic strategy. Evaluation of complications occurring in a contemporary population of ACS may help to evaluate the need of ICU strategy. Coupled with favorable outcomes in many patients, these data may be an opportunity for testing of strategies to refine triage to less costly hospital care units. The investigators thus want to compare, through an observational and prospective study, the event rate of two groups of patients with ACS admitted to ICU . Patients are classified as "high risk" and "low risk" according to specific medical criteria validated in the literature. The study will include all consecutive patients admitted for NSTACS and STACS admitted to the intensive care department of the Montpellier university hospital with the diagnosis of ACS confirmed by coronary angiography. Our primary goal is to compare the percentage of patients with at least one serious clinical event between the high and low risk groups. A serious event is defined by the occurrence within 7+/-5 days of one of the following criteria: death all causes, serious neurological or hemorrhagic complications, hemodynamic instability and severe heart failure, rhythm or sustained or poorly tolerated conduction disorders requiring therapeutic intervention, painful recurrence requiring new coronary angiography, secondary transfer to intensive care for any reason. Our hypothesis is that low-risk patients will have very few events and no fatal events and that they could not require intensive care unit admission .
Pressure offloading is often considered the most crucial aspect in healing after a foot injury. The investigators have devised a novel foot offloading device (PopSole™) which will allow for customization of the area where there is foot pain, as well as allow for customizable arch support and elevation of the metatarsals. This validation study is aimed to assess improvement of pain with use, ease of use, fit and feel, compliance, and durability over a 4 week period. Validated patient reported outcome measures will be used at baseline, 2 weeks and 4 weeks.
This is a parallel-arm, double-blind, placebo-controlled study with a screening phase that includes a 28-day run-in phase to establish baseline seizure frequency, followed by a 24-week, randomized, placebo-controlled phase. After completion of the randomized, placebo-controlled phase, participants may enter a 48-week, long-term, extension phase during which they will receive open-label treatment with vatiquinone.
This study compare the efficacy and safety of tocilizumab versus methylprednisolone in the cytokine release syndrome of patients with COVID-19
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a syndromic definition of an acute lung injury with alteration of biomechanics (lower respiratory system compliance) mostly associated with increased lesional edema. Increase in Pulmonary Vascular Permeability Index (PVPI) accompanied with accumulation of excess Extravascular Lung Water (EVLW) is the hallmark of ARDS. In routine clinical practice, the investigators measure the EVLW and PVPI in ARDS patients, as suggested by expert's recommendations, using a transpulmonary thermodilution (TPTD) technique. Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a newly recognized illness that has spread rapidly throughout Wuhan (Hubei province) to other provinces in China and around the world. Most critically ill patients with SARS-CoV-2 will present the criteria for the definition of ARDS. However, many of these patients have a particular form of ARDS with severe hypoxemia often associated with near normal respiratory system compliance. This combination is almost never seen in severe ARDS. Thus other mechanisms (including probably vascular mechanisms), that are still poorly described, have to be involved in SARS-CoV-2. EVLW and PVPI have never been assessed in SARS-CoV-2 mechanically ventilated patients. The aim of this study is to evaluate these two parameters in order to best characterize and understand the mechanisms related to SARS-CoV-2. Based on observation of several cases in intensive care units (ICU), the investigators hypothesize that there are following different SARS-CoV-2 patterns: 1. Nearly normal compliance, low lung recruitability, normal EVLW and low PVPI. 2. Low compliance due to increased edema, high lung recruitability, high EVLW and high PVPI.
