Filter by:Background: Throat cancer is a common tumor that can occur in people infected with the human papilloma virus (HPV). Most people with this cancer survive more than 5 years with standard chemotherapy drugs plus radiation. But radiation can cause serious adverse effects. Researchers believe that adding a vaccine (PRGN-2009) to this drug therapy may improve survival without the need for radiation. Objective: To test a study vaccine combined with standard chemotherapy in patients with HPV-associated throat cancers. Eligibility: People aged 18 years and older with newly diagnosed throat cancer associated with HPV. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam and blood tests. They will have imaging scans and tests of their heart function and hearing. They will provide a sample of tissue from their tumor. A recent sample may be used; if none is available, a new sample will be taken. All participants will get two common drugs for treating cancer. These drugs are given through a tube attached to a needle inserted into a vein in the arm. Participants will receive these drugs on the first day of three 3-week cycles. Half of the participants will also get the vaccine. PRGN-2009 is injected under the skin in the arm. They will get these shots 4 times: 7 days before the start of the first cycle and on the 11th day of each cycle. Participants will have standard surgery to remove their tumors 3 to 6 weeks after completing the study treatment. They will have follow-up visits 3, 6, 12, and 24 months after their surgery.
In this study, investigators intend to prospectively study treatment-naive AA patients (including SAA and NSAA) who are non-transplant candidates in northern China. Patients with SAA receive ATG+CsA+Herombopag, and patients with NSAA receive CsA+ Herombopag. Investigators explored possible indicators of participants' predictive efficacy and built predictive models. After the participants achieved response, they used a tapering regimen, observed relapse and clonal evolution, and developed a predictive model of relapse.
A randomized clinical trials with cross-over design to evaluate changes in blood pressure, renal function (creatinine, estimated glomerular filtration), LDL and HDL-cholesterol after taking antihypertensive drugs in the morning or at bedtime. Blood pressure will be estimated by ambulatory blood pressure measurements. There will be a shift in time of drug intake after 8 weeks for each participant. Approximately 100 individuals aged 40-75 years and on stable anti-hypertensive treatment and blood pressure <150/95 mm Hg will be recruited. No new drugs will be introduced during the study.
Real-world studies on long-term prognosis in patients who underwent anti-tumor treatments during hospitalization from a hospital-based cancer registry in china.
The study wishes to examine whether "extended" antipsychotic treatment, in this case, antipsychotic treatment every other day, is as effective as daily treatment. It is also evaluating whether there may be differences in terms of side effects. Participants will be randomly assigned to either the treatment as usual group (i.e., taking antipsychotic daily) or the extended dosing group (i.e., taking antipsychotic one day on, one day off). That means, like flipping a coin, there is a 50/50 chance that participants will continue on daily dosing of your antipsychotic or have it switched to every other day dosing. This study will last for 1 year. Participants will be evaluated at the beginning and every two weeks during the first 6 months, with visits once every 4 weeks for the final 6 months. In total, participants will make 22 visits over 52 weeks to the investigator's office. The investigators hypothesize that with ED, there will be no change in symptom severity but improvement in the frequency and severity of side effects, wellbeing, and functioning.
