Filter by:This is an open-label, two-arm, phase III non-inferiority trial to evaluate the safety of a liberalized hospital diet inclusive of fresh fruits and vegetables to a neutropenic diet in patients with prolonged neutropenia. Both cohorts and diets will adhere to the hygiene and common sense advice listed in the FDA-endorsed food safety guidelines.
Chronic Back and/or Leg Pain (CBLP) after spinal surgical procedures, a condition commonly labelled Failed Back Surgery Syndrome (FBSS), affects between 15% and 40% of patients after a spine surgery. Treatment of this chronic condition by further operation or medical management has a heavy financial impact on health care systems. Many studies have demonstrated the efficacy and economic value of Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) for chronic neuropathic pain, and randomized controlled trials (RCTs) have shown SCS to be a clinically effective adjunct to medical management. SCS has the advantages of being reversible and less invasive than surgery and may cause fewer issues over time than long-term pharmacological treatments. Despite variable levels of success in the literature, approximately 30-55% of the patients treated with traditional SCS for neuropathic pain disorders will not receive adequate long term pain relief. Therefore, technical SCS system refinements, as well as new techniques have emerged. Two new stimulation waveforms based on traditional SCS technology have appeared to further optimize the outcome for specific painful conditions; - Burst stimulation mode: which generates constant-current stimuli with 5 spikes at 500 Hz per burst and pulse width and interspike intervals of 1 ms. - High-frequency stimulation (from 1 to 10 kHz) mode. Several studies have demonstrated the potential interest of these 2 new waveforms to treat FBSS patients compared to traditional SCS. The Precision Spectra™ system allows MultiWave Technology by offering a broad spectrum of waveform options (from Tonic Conventional Stimulation (TCS), BURST stimulation to High Frequency stimulation (HF)). To date, literature data comparing these 3 stimulation patterns is lacking but it is suggested the pain relief in some of non-responsive patients can be "recaptured" by increasing the SCS frequency to 500 Hz by BURST stimulation or beyond by HF stimulation. It seems important to conduct RCT in crossover, thanks to the new Precision SCS Stimulator, to compare the effects of these 3 different SCS modalities in FBSS patients and to determine which concept is the most effective in terms of pain reduction and energy consumption.
The current "gold-standard" for the management of alcohol withdrawal syndrome (AWS) is symptom-triggered administration of benzodiazepines. This method of treatment has several drawbacks that have been described in the literature. Thus benzodiazepine sparing agents have been evaluated for use in AWS. One of these agents that has not only shown benefit for AWS but also benefits on complete abstinence, reducing a return to heavy drinking, and cravings is gabapentin. In clinical practice at Mayo Clinic gabapentin is used for this purpose. Due to the limited reports of the safety and efficacy of a protocol involving gabapentin for AWS, a study to compare gabapentin to symptom-triggered lorazepam will be completed.
The study aims to test the safety of Repetitive Magnetic Stimulation (RMS) treatment for dry eye disease. Patients are asked to undergo a one-time treatment with Epitech Ocular Magnetic Stimulation Device on one eye in the first stage and both eyes sequentially in the second stage of the study. Changes are monitored for over a study period of 3 months.
The main purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy (transfusion independence [TI]) of talacotuzumab (JNJ-56022473) or daratumumab in transfusion-dependent participants with low or intermediate-1 risk Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) whose disease has relapsed during treatment with or is refractory to Erythropoiesis-Stimulating Agent (ESAs).
To investigate the association between metabolic syndrome (MS) and thyroid nodule(s).
This a randomised open-label parallel study involving women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). The patients will be randomised either to metformin 1500mg or empagliflozin 25mg daily for three months. The aim of the study is to examine the effect of empagliflozin on hormonal, metabolic and cardiovascular risk markers and quality of life in women with PCOS.
This is a prospective, randomized trial comparing different doses of rosuvastatin in patients with acute coronary syndrome post drug-eluting stents implantation. Through the study, the investigators aim to evaluate the effects of high dose rosuvastatin calcium on "target vessel" endothelialization and "non-target vessel" plaque stability. Moreover, the investigators may provide mechanically evidence of clinical application of high dose rosuvastatin in patients with acute coronary syndrome.
This is a Phase 2 study with an initial 24-week Treatment Period and an Extension Phase. The primary objectives of this Phase 2 study are to determine the safety, tolerability, and dose selection of mavorixafor in participants with WHIM syndrome. Participants are allowed to continue treatment in an Extension Phase, if regionally applicable, until it becomes commercially available or until the study is terminated by the Sponsor.
The study purpose is to determine the hypolipidemic effect of Alirocumab co-administered with atorvastatin on levels of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins and LDL compared to monotherapy with atorvastatin in patients with dyslipidemia secondary to nephrotic syndrome.
