The primary objective of this study is to quantify disease progression measured by best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) in the real-world setting among Choroideremia (CHM) participants. The secondary objectives are to describe demographic and baseline clinical characteristics among CHM participants and to match CHM participants in the Intelligent Research in Sight (IRIS®) Registry to Biogen's investigator sponsored trial (IST) study population using propensity score matching.
Prospective observational study with 7-year follow up. 55 patients are included with moderate to severe tooth wear, whereby through informed consent the decision was taking to monitor the patients. At the baseline and 1, 3 5, and the 7-year recall digital 3D scans will be made, which will be compared and subtracted.
This is a prospective study addressing the challenge of predicting disease progression and/or recurrence in patients diagnosed with metastatic colorectal, pancreatobiliary, or esophagogastric cancer that are receiving anti-cancer therapy.
The aim of this randomized controlled, double-blinded, split-mouth clinical trial was to evaluate the efficacy of self-assembling peptide P11-4 solution (Curodont™ Repair) with fluoride varnish on the progression of non-cavitated proximal caries compared to casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP) with fluoride varnish (MI Varnish™) sodium fluoride (NaF) varnish (Profluorid® Varnish). The study included 300 permanent molars belonging to 150 children, aged between 7 to 13 years old, who had two non-cavitated proximal carious lesions.
The purpose of this pilot study is to assess the feasibility of a brief digital mindfulness-based intervention for COPD patients and its effectiveness regarding the reduction of psychological distress as well as stress.
Based on the literature, it seems likely that a nutritional intervention with nicotinamide (a form of vitamin B3) can support the therapy of SARS-CoV-2 infection (COVID-19). A pilot phase of the COVit trial showed an effect of nicotinamide on the time to complete resolution of COVID-19 symptoms. In addition, diarrhoea is a common symptom of COVID-19. Therefore, in a second part of the study, 420 symptomatic patients each with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection are to take 1,000 mg nicotinamide (500 mg conventional nicotinamide and 500 mg nicotinamide released in a controlled manner in the intestine) or corresponding placebos per day in a blinded fashion for 4 weeks. The primary endpoint of the trial is the occurrence of individual COVID-19 symptoms over time (primary analysis time point: week 2). Secondary endpoints focus on the severity of COVID-19 symptoms, the post-COVID-19 syndrome (PCS), anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody levels, and the time to resolution of individual or all symptoms. Exploratory endpoints include the WHO clinical scale for COVID-19, development of severe COVID-19, fatigue, quality of life and biomarkers. Patients are approached after positive testing and give their informed consent online. After randomised distribution of the trial supplements, patients are interviewed by telephone about their disease course at baseline (week 0), week 2, week 4, week 6 and after 6 months. Stool samples are collected from up to 400 patients at the same timepoints. In addition to blood count and standard blood profile, various inflammatory markers and the metabolome, in particular tryptophan metabolism, are examined in the blood of up to 20 selected patients. In these patients, the viral strain is determined by sequencing from nasopharyngeal swabs. In selected patients, short-term pharmacokinetics of nicotinamide, nicotinic acid and nicotinuric acid as well as of metabolites of nicotinamide and tryptophan are investigated. In the stool, changes in the microbiome (in 100-300 patients) as well as metagenome and metabolome (in a subgroup) will be analysed. The study is expected to produce rapid results on whether nicotinamide supplementation can alleviate the disease course of COVID-19. Moreover, a follow-up interview, a smell test, a cognitive test and anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody levels after at least 6 months will be used to investigate whether the supplementation has any influence on PCS as well as the immune reaction against SARS-CoV-2.
Participants were assigned randomly into two groups, exercise and control groups. All participants in both groups followed the WHO guidelines of quarantine and used standardized medications given by the physician according to the Turkish Ministry of Health guidelines, including the Hydroxyclorocin Sulphate 200 Mg Film Tablet (Plaquenil 200 Mg Film Tablet). The dose was 2 times/ day, 200Mg/time, for 5 days. Besides, the exercise group performed moderate-intensity aerobic exercises for 40 min/ 3 sessions/week, 40 minute/session.
This trial is testing two novel combinations (temozolomide plus osimertinib OR temozolomide plus lorlatinib) which have not been evaluated in clinical trials. Thus, the exact benefits of these novel combinations are unclear. However, based on the mechanism of action of temozolomide and CNS(Central Nervous System) penetration/activity in other tumor types, it is hypothesized that adding temozolomide to osimertinib or temozolomide to lorlatinib may provide improvement in CNS disease control in patients with CNS progression on either of these latter two TKIs (Tyrosine kinase inhibitors).
Corona virus disease 2019 (COVID 19), first identified in December 2019 in a cluster of population in a Chinese province, soon emerged as a pandemic, causing a huge strain on healthcare system and mortality all over the world. An ideal marker for predicting course of this illness should be easily available and reproducible; as the disease burden has spread to third world countries whose healthcare system is resource limited. Our study is aimed to study the utility of lymphocyte- monocyte ratio in the early stages to predict the progression of COVID 19 pneumonia.
