NCT ID: NCT04961164 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Chronic Kidney Diseases

Resistant Starch Prebiotic Effects in Chronic Kidney Disease

ReSPECKD
Start date: September 27, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

In patients with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), there is a buildup of nitrogenous uremic toxins of gut microbiome origin, which can contribute to uremic symptoms, reduced quality of life, and earlier progression to dialysis. The goal of this project is to investigate whether the consumption of resistant potato starch (RPS) as an adjunctive therapy to current standard of CKD care will reduce uremic toxins and symptoms by altering the gut microbiota in patients with CKD.

NCT ID: NCT04960709 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer

Treatment Combination of Durvalumab, Tremelimumab and Enfortumab Vedotin or Durvalumab and Enfortumab Vedotin in Patients With Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer Ineligible to Cisplatin or Who Refuse Cisplatin

VOLGA
Start date: August 5, 2021
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

A global phase 3, multicenter, randomized, trial, to Determine the Efficacy and Safety of Durvalumab in combination with Tremelimumab and Enfortumab Vedotin or Durvalumab in combination with Enfortumab vedotin for Perioperative Treatment in Patients Ineligible for Cisplatin or who refuse Cisplantin Undergoing Radical Cystectomy for Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer. The goal of the study is to explore the triplet combination of Durvalumab, Tremelimumab and Enfortumab Vedotin in terms of efficacy and safety compared to the current Standard Of Care (SOC). Volga trial consists of two parts: Safety Run-In and Main Study. In total the study aims to enroll approximately 830 patients, who will receive triplet combination, duplet combination of Durvalumab and Enfortumab vedotin or currently approved SOC in the main trial. In the main part of the trial there is two out of three chances of being on a treatment arm and the treatment is assigned at random by a computer system. In this trial patients in the two treatment arms will receive either 3 cycles of neoadjuvant Durvalumab + Tremelimumab + Enfortumab Vedotin or Durvalumab + Enfortumab vedotin and after surgery both treatment arms will continue with adjuvant Durvalumab.

NCT ID: NCT04960046 Recruiting - Postoperative Pain Clinical Trials

A Comparison Between a PC and a CC Approach for the Placement of Infraclavicular Perineural Catheters in Hand Surgery

Start date: October 25, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

In outpatient hand surgery, 40% of patients report moderate to severe pain within 24 hours of the operation. Effective pain management is therefore essential to ensure a comfortable and safe return home for the patient. Loco-regional anesthesia is the optimal method of analgesia for complex hand surgery. It involves the injection of a local anesthetic (LA) near the nerves responsible for the sensitivity of the arm. Following a single injection of long-acting local anesthetic, the maximum duration of analgesia is limited to approximately 13 hours, with great variability between individuals. In order to provide pain relief over a longer period of time, placing catheters near nerves has become a routine practice at the CHUM. Infraclavicular nerve block is one of the most widely used loco-regional anesthesia techniques for hand surgery. This block can be achieved either by paracoracoid (PC) or costoclavicular (CC) approach. Both approaches are currently used at the CHUM. The PC approach involves inserting a needle under the lower rim of the clavicle below the coracoid process. This approach makes it possible to reach the 3 different nerve bundles, located around the axillary artery, which are involved in the sensitivity of the hand. The CC approach, more recently described, proposes an insertion of the needle under the lower edge of the clavicle but in a lateral way to the axillary artery which makes it possible to reach the nerves at a place where the 3 main nerve bundles are still joined together. The clustering of nerve structures at the injection site may facilitate the spread of local anesthetics. Recent studies have demonstrated that the CC approach requires a smaller volume compared to the PC approach to achieve perineural blockade. The effective dose 90 (ED90) for the CC approach was 19 mL while it is 31 mL for the PC approach. This is explained by the greater proximity between the three nerve bundles targeted in the CC approach and a lower prevalence of anatomical variations at this level. However, studies on the subject are rare and do not allow conclusions to be drawn on the superiority of either approach.

NCT ID: NCT04958902 Recruiting - Anxiety Clinical Trials

RESTORE in Patients Who Had COVID-19 and Close Others

Start date: October 22, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

There is considerable need for psychological intervention targeting stressor-related mental health symptoms related to COVID-19. The investigators have developed an online self-directed transdiagnostic intervention to address this need called RESTORE: Recovering from Extreme Stressors Through Online Resources and E-health. The specific aims of this project are to refine and investigate the initial safety, efficacy, and desirability of RESTORE for addressing mental-health symptoms in individuals who have recovered from severe COVID-19 and close others.

NCT ID: NCT04955470 Recruiting - Suicidal Ideation Clinical Trials

Ketamine Infusion for Rapid Reduction of Suicidality in Pediatrics

Keta4SI
Start date: June 1, 2022
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

Suicide is a leading cause of death for children and adolescents. Since warning signs of suicide and links to precipitating events differ between age groups, suicide can be difficult to predict. As a result, children often seek care for suicidal ideation (SI) in the emergency department (ED) where a limited number of treatment options exist. Current psychotherapies and pharmacotherapies, such as antidepressants, provide benefit over weeks or months and thus limits their effective application in the ED. Consequently, when there is an imminent threat to the child's safety, the typical management solution is to admit the patient to a safe environment and hopefully de-escalate over time. To address a more rapid-onset treatment option for SI, a number of studies in adults have suggested that a single, sub-anesthetic dose of intravenous ketamine can rapidly reduce depression and SI severity. These results are promising, but large-scale trials are needed to determine if ketamine is a safe and effective treatment for acute suicidality in the pediatric population. This approach has the benefit of working rapidly, avoiding involuntary hospitalizations, and protecting patients from self-harm until they can be connected to longer term mental health resources. This study will compare the use of intravenous ketamine to both active and placebo controls in children 10 to 17 years of age presenting to the pediatric ED for SI. The primary objective of this pilot trial is to explore the adequacy and range of three instruments measuring suicidality and to determine the sample size required for a large definitive randomized control trial. This larger trial will be used to estimate the effectiveness of intravenous ketamine for reducing SI in children in the pediatric ED. The secondary objectives are to assess study feasibility and optimize study procedures. Given very few side effects reported in adult studies and the relatively benign nature of those reported, the investigators do not expect any major safety concerns in the study.
