There are about 21071 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Spain. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
This is a retrospective observational cohort study, the primary objective is investigate the activity and efficacy of anti PD-1 antibodies in children, adolescents and young adult melanoma patients, with radically resected or metastatic disease
The purpose of this adaptive Phase 1/2 study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and antileukemic activity of CCTx-001 in adult patients with r/r Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML). CCTx-001 targets IL-1RAP, which is specifically expressed in leukemic cells. In preclinical studies, IL-1RAP-targeted Chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) have demonstrated encouraging activity in both in vitro and in vivo experiments in AML models. Based on these promising preclinical results, it is expected that CCTx-001 could potentially alter the natural course of r/r AML and provide a potential novel treatment option.
Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (alloHSCT) represents the only curative option for many patients diagnosed with various hematologic neoplasms. Procedure-related morbidity and mortality pose challenges to long-term outcomes and quality of life, especially among patients who develop chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD). There is a gap in healthcare that comprehensively addresses the specific needs of these patients. Physical therapy as an adjuvant treatment, through therapeutic exercise involving muscle strength and cardiorespiratory endurance, has shown positive influences on health markers and serves as a strong medical ally in similar profiles. Although these strategies could be reproducible and potentially beneficial for cGVHD patients, research has been limited to date, with the role of physical therapy possibly underutilized in this field. Justification: Unaddressed medical gap with no rigorously scientific responses specific to cGVHD. Objectives: This project aims to conduct the first randomized clinical trial from a physical therapy perspective as an adjuvant treatment for patients undergoing alloHSCT diagnosed with cGVHD.
Background: Cardiorespiratory arrest (CPA) occurs when there is a cessation of cardiac mechanical activity, typically diagnosed by the absence of consciousness, pulse, and breathing. Actions taken in response to CPA include recognizing the condition and promptly notifying emergency medical services, initiating Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) maneuvers, and employing an Automated External Defibrillator (AED). Survival rates are directly influenced by the time elapsed between CPA onset and the initiation of CPR maneuvers, as well as the quality of these interventions Hypotheses: Online education in CPR maneuvers is an effective and efficient tool for training individuals from the general population on how to respond to cardiac arrests Objectives: The primary aim of this study is to assess the efficacy of online CPR and AED training within the general population of the province of Tarragona. Specific objectives include: 1) evaluating participants' theoretical and practical CPR skills in the short and medium term following online training, and 2) exploring the experiences of individuals who have completed the online training and simulation sessions using qualitative methodology. Methodology:This study will unfold in several phases: 1) Online CPR-AED training and assessment of theoretical knowledge acquisition; 2) Evaluation of acquired practical CPR skills (know-how) within a simulation environment, conducted on a subset of the population completing phase 1;3)Analysis of the experiences of a subset of individuals who have participated in the preceding two phases, employing qualitative methodology Variables and determinations:The primary response variable for phase 1 will be the difference in scores obtained from the online questionnaire between the final (post-training) and initial (pre-training) assessments. In phase 2, the main variable will be the pass/fail categorization of scores in the simulation. This evaluation will be conducted by two members of the Advanced Clinical Simulation Unit at Joan XXII Hospital using a predefined checklist. Throughout the various phases of the study, socio-demographic data and course performance data will be taken into account Expected results: The research team for this study aims to ascertain the efficacy and effectiveness of online CPR-AED training within the general population. Furthermore, the study aims to provide evidence regarding the optimal duration and frequency for repeating such training. Applicability and Relevance: This proposal advocates for a significant and innovative project, given the dearth of literature on this topic. While there are existing indications and studies on CPR-AED training among specific populations such as students and healthcare professionals, the presented proposal seeks to broaden the scope of training to encompass the general population.
Introduction. At the neurophysiological level, it is possible to observe an increase in the central processing of pain in patients diagnosed with persistent Spinal Pain Syndrome (PSPS-T1/2), potentially stemming from dysfunctions in the endogenous facilitation and inhibition of pain. Administration of high doses of spinal cord stimulation to individuals with PSPS-T1/2 may induce supraspinal descending activation. Similarly, exercise is recognized as a fundamental aspect of spinal pain management. Studies have demonstrated its impact on neurophysiological factors, including the release of spinal and supraspinal beta-endorphins, which activate μ-opioid receptors. Therefore, the purpose of this study will be to examine the effect of SCS in combination with lumbo-pelvic stability core training on perceived low back pain, quality of life and disability in failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS) patients. Methods/Materials. A double-blind randomized clinical trial (RCT) has been designed. All participants will be randomized from a pre-set sequence. The intervention design has been elaborated from the CONSORT guidelines. This study protocol has been approved by the Ethics Committee in research of Salamanca Health Area (protocol number PI 2023 101435 in (24/01/2024) in accordance with the ethical guidelines of the Helsinki declaration. Sample size was calculated using G Power® Sample size software (University of Düsseldorf). The calculation was based on a moderate effect size of 0.4 (partial η2 = 0.40, α = .05, power = 0.90), resulting in a total of 28 patients. Assuming a 30% dropout rate, 36 participants will be recruited in total. Two sessions per week will be scheduled for 8 weeks with a total of 16 sessions. Each work session will have a duration of 60 minutes. The exercise will be adapted according to the phases based on the results already published, limiting in each phase the degrees of flexion and extension of the spine in order to avoid the risk of electrode migration. Primary outcomes will be functionality, satisfaction, strength, psychosocial variables, quality of life and pain perception.
Admission to an Intensive Care Unit (ICU) is a potentially traumatic experience for a mentally vulnerable person. Beyond the stress and anxiety associated with the ICU environment and medical procedures, survivors of critical illness are at risk of developing cognitive and psychological sequelae related to Post-Intensive Care Syndrome (PICS). These disorders are associated with high economic, medical and personal costs. This trial aims to evaluate the efficacy of an innovative neuropsychological e-health intervention for early cognitive stimulation and psychological support of people in critical care, i.e. the Rehabilitation Gaming System for Intensive Care Units (RGS-ICU) intervention, in improving comfort during ICU admission and cognition and mental health three and 12 months after ICU discharge. The RGS-ICU intervention, applied as an adjunct to standard ICU care, is based on non-immersive virtual reality techniques and has been specifically designed and developed to suit the needs of people in critical care and the characteristics of the ICU environment. To ensure the safety of the intervention, participants' physiological parameters will be automatically recorded by advanced continuous monitoring systems as part of standard ICU care. The investigadors hypothesize that the cognitive stimulation and psychological support protocols of the RGS-ICU intervention, applied as an adjunct to standard ICU care, in addition to being safe for people in critical care units, will improve comfort during ICU admission and cognitive and mental health outcomes after ICU discharge, compared to receiving standard ICU care alone. The findings derived from this trial may contribute to establish a novel and superior paradigm of human-centered ICU care to improve the comfort of people admitted to the ICU. This achievement could also have a relevant impact on medical and economic costs during ICU admission, and on functionality and health-related quality of life after ICU discharge associated with the reduction of cognitive and psychological sequelae linked to PICS. The RGS-ICU intervention has been designed at Corporacion Parc Taulí with the collaboration of the University of the Balearic Islands and has been developed by Eodyne Systems S.L., a company dedicated to the development of science-based technological solutions for intervention, monitoring, diagnosis, and prognosis in stroke and other brain disorders.
