NCT ID: NCT02764034 Available - Infertility Clinical Trials

Effect of Low Level Laser Therapy on Endometrial Cells: An In Vitro Study

LLLT
Start date: n/a
Phase: N/A
Study type: Expanded Access

The human endometrium is an extremely sensitive target. LLLT can enhance the proliferation rate of various cell lines, it produces higher rates of ATP, RNA, and DNA synthesis in stem cells and other cell lines. Thus, LLLT improves the proliferation of the cells without causing any cytotoxic effects. The aim of this work is to assess the ability of low level laser therapy in enhancing endometrial proliferation and increasing endometrial receptivity. A number of 120 human endometrial samples will be studied, and will be collected from 40 infertile women attending the infertility clinic at NRC. Each human endometrial sample will be divided into 3 plates, in order to establish 3 main groups of 40 culture plates for single laser exposure group versus 40 culture plates for multiple laser exposure group and 40 tissue culture plates for control samples, thus a total of 120 tissue culture plates will be studied, the study groups will be exposed to low level laser therapy and compared to their matched controls.. Assessment of number and size of cells after LLLT as a marker of normal proliferation and b) The expression of Integrin aVB3 "alpha v B3", MUC-1 and LIFand the development of pinopodes on the surface of epithelial cells as markers of endometrial receptivity and the detection of PTEN tumor suppressor gene as a marker of abnormal proliferation or premalignant condition will be performed to assess the effect of LLLT on the endometrial cell culture. This study might offer a new therapeutic modality which might increase endometrial thickness and enhance receptivity .

NCT ID: NCT02934282 Available - Anemia Clinical Trials

HBOC-201 Expanded Access Protocol for Life-threatening Anemia for Whom Allogeneic Blood Transfusion is Not an Option

Start date: n/a
Phase:
Study type: Expanded Access

The purpose of this protocol is to provide treatment with HBOC-201 to patients with life-threatening anemia for whom blood is not an option. Such patients may also be referred to in this document as patients who refuse blood transfusion (PWRBT). Other patients who potentially may require HBOC-201 treatment include those with red blood cell alloantibodies for whom immunologically compatible red blood cell units cannot be found, although these patients are less common than PWRBT.

NCT ID: NCT03015844 Available - Neuroblastoma Clinical Trials

A Compassionate Use/Expanded Access Protocol Using 131I-MIBG Therapy for Patients With Refractory Neuroblastoma and Metastatic Pheochromocytoma

Start date: n/a
Phase:
Study type: Expanded Access

This is an expanded access protocol/compassionate use single institution study designed to determine the palliative benefit and toxicity of 131I-MIBG in patients with progressive neuroblastoma and metastatic pheochromocytoma who are not eligible for therapies of higher priority. Response rate, toxicity, and time to progression and death will be evaluated.

NCT ID: NCT03123029 Available - Multiple Myeloma Clinical Trials

Expanded Access to Venetoclax

Start date: n/a
Phase:
Study type: Expanded Access

This is an expanded access program (EAP) for eligible participants. This program is designed to provide access to Venetoclax prior to approval by the local regulatory agency. Availability will depend on territory eligibility. A medical doctor must decide whether the potential benefit outweighs the risk of receiving an investigational therapy based on the individual patient's medical history and program eligibility criteria.

NCT ID: NCT03145545 Available - Leukemia Clinical Trials

Expanded Access Protocol Using Alpha/Beta T and CD19+ Depleted PBSC

Start date: n/a
Phase:
Study type: Expanded Access

The primary objective of this protocol is to expand access for patients who lack a fully HLA (Human leukocyte antigen) matched sibling donor, and who are candidates for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). These patients have a serious or immediately life-threatening disease for which HSCT is indicated. These patients are not eligible for other Children's Hospital of Philadelphia Institutional Review Board (IRB) approved protocols that utilize CliniMACs technology for T depletion.

NCT ID: NCT03327467 Available - Cerebral Palsy Clinical Trials

Expanded Access Protocol: Umbilical Cord Blood Infusions for Children With Brain Injuries

Start date: n/a
Phase:
Study type: Expanded Access

The purpose of this protocol is to enable access to intravenous infusions of banked autologous (a person's own) or sibling umbilical cord blood (CB) for children with various brain disorders. This is an expanded access protocol intended for patients who are unable to participate in a clinical trial involving their own or their sibling's cord blood. Children with cerebral palsy, congenital hydrocephalus, apraxia, stroke, hypoxic brain injury and related conditions will be eligible if they have normal immune function and do not qualify for, have previously participated in, or are unable to participate in an active cell therapy clinical trial at Duke Medicine. For the purpose of this protocol the term children refers to patients less than 26 years of age. The cord blood is thawed and then administered as an intravenous infusion. Recipients do not receive chemotherapy or immunosuppression. The mechanism of action is through paracrine signaling of cord blood monocytes inducing endogenous cells to repair existing damage.

NCT ID: NCT03412539 Available - Oncology Problem Clinical Trials

Mechanism of Effectiveness of Neurosurgery Treatments for Durable Pain

Start date: n/a
Phase: N/A
Study type: Expanded Access

The participants in the study are patients who undergo surgery to damaged nerve transmission and processing system in the nervous system as part of the routine clinical treatment that will not be affected by the proposed study. Patients who are candidates for procedures are referred from all over the country and undergo a multidisciplinary evaluation in the framework of the Palliative Pain Management Clinic, which operates exclusively in Israel at the Sourasky Medical Center in Tel Aviv.

NCT ID: NCT03414489 Available - Cholangiocarcinoma Clinical Trials

Expanded Access for the Treatment of Advanced Cholangiocarcinoma With ABC294640 (Yeliva ®)

Start date: n/a
Phase:
Study type: Expanded Access

This is an expanded access program (EAP) for eligible participants who do not qualify for participation in, or who are otherwise unable to access, the ongoing clinical trial ABC-108. This program is designed to provide access to ABC294640 (Yeliva ®) for treatment of cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) prior to approval by the local regulatory agency. Availability will depend on territory eligibility. Participating sites will be added as they apply for and are approved for the EAP. An oncologist must decide whether the potential benefit outweighs the risk of receiving an investigational therapy based on the individual patient's medical history and program eligibility criteria.

NCT ID: NCT03419949 Available - Clinical trials for Acute and Chronic Pain Following Modified Radical Mastectomy

Comparison of Oral Lamotrigine Versus Pregabalin for Control of Acute and Chronic Pain

Start date: n/a
Phase:
Study type: Expanded Access

Breast cancer is the most frequent neoplastic tumor in women, and surgical treatment is indicated in most patients. Complications related to this treatment, such as post-mastectomy pain syndrome (PMPS), a persistent pain that develops after surgery, have been reported. Although the genesis of the pain is multifactorial, sectioning of the intercostobrachial nerve is the nerve lesion diagnosed more often (1) .. Pain relief using drugs with high efficacy provides significant improvement in the patients' lives. Drugs like lamotrigine (LTG) and gabapentin (GBP) have the ability to overcome the symptoms of neuropathic pain (4). Both LTG and PGB have been extensively reviewed in the past for management of painful neuropathic conditions (5)
