Elderly patients * with multiple comorbidities are underrepresented in most radio-oncology studies. In times of individualized therapy and when weighing up oncological over- or under-therapy, this observational study is a step towards the implementation of established geriatric instruments and concepts in radiation oncology. As part of the initial outpatient consultation on radiotherapy, the quality of life of patients older than 70 years before the start of therapy is assessed using the EORTC QLQ-C30 and ELD14 questionnaires. Furthermore, a geriatric screening is carried out using the G8 questionnaire. The geriatric screening carried out in routine clinical practice with little effort is used to filter out patients with no risk of increased vulnerability - these participants do not require any further examinations.
The overall goal of this protocol is to evaluate the imaging characteristics of [18F]PI-2620 using positron emission tomography (PET) in patients with progressive supranuclear palsy, Richardson's syndrome (PSP-RS)
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of aficamten (CK-3773274) in adults with symptomatic hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and left ventricular outflow tract obstruction
This study is open to adults with chronic kidney disease. People with and without type 2 diabetes can take part in this study. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called BI 690517 improves kidney function in people with chronic kidney disease when taken alone or in combination with a medicine called empagliflozin. In the first part of the study, participants take empagliflozin or placebo as tablets every day for 2 months. Placebo tablets look like empagliflozin tablets but do not contain any medicine. In the second part, participants are divided into several groups. Depending on the group, the participants then additionally take different doses of BI 690517 or placebo as tablets for 3.5 months. In this case, placebo tablets look like BI 690517 tablets but do not contain any medicine. Participants are in the study for about 6 months. During this time, they visit the study site about 12 times. Where possible, about 4 of the 12 visits can be done at the participant's home instead of the study site. The trial staff may also contact the participants by phone or video call. Participants collect urine samples at home. These samples are then analysed to assess kidney function. At the end of the trial the results are compared between the different groups. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.
Patients with crohn's disease often suffer significant limitations to their quality of life, which are also conditioned by particular stress and psychosocial accompanying symptoms of the disease. A multimodal program for stress-reduction and lifestyle-modification has been shown to be effective in promoting the quality of life in patients with uncreative colitis. The study will examine the promotion of the quality of life of patients with crohn's disease and the positive Influence on stress, psychological symptoms and physiological parameters.

This is an observational study in which patient data from the past of females with heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB) is studied. • HMB describes menstrual periods with abnormally heavy or prolonged bleeding. Women concerned may not be able to maintain their usual activities during their period. Thus, HMB can reduce the quality of life and may lead to other medical problems. It is described that up to 30 of 100 women ask doctors for help concerning HMB during their fertile years. HMB is often not recognized and treated timely. In addition, there is little information about characteristics of women with HMB and real-world data on available treatments are missing. Despite the availability of non-invasive therapeutic options, for some women with severe HMB, surgical treatments (also called invasive) may be needed that can lead to infertility. - In this study researchers want to learn more about: - the percentage of women diagnosed with HMB - characteristics of these women like age at diagnosis or medical problems - treatment pathways of women with HMB in usual care Regarding treatment pathways, the researchers are especially interested in: - the percentage of women who use different therapeutic options over time - the percentage of women receiving invasive treatment for HMB after they received treatment as recommended by guidelines versus those not treated as recommended - To do this, researchers will collect information from five observational healthcare databases. Data will be from the year 2000 up to 2020. - Besides this data collection, no further tests or examinations are planned in this study. - In future, this information shall help to identify women with HMB and to learn what information may predict if invasive treatment will be needed later on.
