Filter by:This is a 2-part, 2 periods per part, open-label study with spironolactone oral suspension in pediatric patients with edema due to HF or hepatic cirrhosis. Both study parts will evaluate the safety, PK and PD of multiple doses of spironolactone in patients aged from birth to ≤17 years of age.
According to the most recent guideline of the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN), desmoplasia is considered to be a very high risk factor for recurrence, metastasis and death in cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC). The presence of desmoplasia is assessed by dermatopathologists during histological examination of cSCCs. However, the inter-observer agreement is between dermatopathologists in the assessment of desmoplasia is unclear. Studies on inter-observer variability in the assessment of differentiation grade in cSCCs showed that there is only a weak to moderate agreement among dermatopathologists in the assessment of differentiation grade (2-4). This study aims to investigate the interobserver agreement of desmoplasia between dermatopathologists. In this prospective study, 50 cSCCs will be assessed for desmoplasia by at least eight dermatopathologists using a predefined definition.
The goal of this observational study is to assess the main clinical and anamnestic characteristics, and frailty syndrome in an adult Cystic Fibrosis population. The main question it aims to answer is the possible association of the frailty status with the main clinical, therapeutical characteristics, including the genotyping classification of Cystic Fibrosis patients.
The primary aim of the project is to analyse gene expression in individual types of ectopic endometrium (ovarian endometriosis, peritoneal endometriosis, deep infiltrating endometriosis) and compare it with gene expression in eutopic endometrium. The analysis focuses on the identification of genes with significantly increased expression in each type of ectopic endometrium and comparison of their expression with the degree of disease, ovarian reserve and clinical manifestations of the disease (pain, infertility).
The goal of the clinical trial is to test whether a mental health program that is delivered through the Internet works well for children and adolescents with cystic fibrosis (CF) and their healthy siblings. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does the program improve the mental health such as depression and anxiety symptoms? - Does the program improve overall quality of life? - Does the program improve self-efficacy - an individual's belief in their ability to complete tasks to achieve their goals? Participants will: - Fill out an online survey asking questions about their personal and health information, as well as their mental health before the program - Complete the online mental health program - Fill out an online survey asking questions about their mental health after completing the program, and 1-month and 3-months following completing the program Participants be compared against another group of children with CF and their healthy siblings who are on a waitlist and receiving usual CF treatment. Researchers will compare participants scores before starting the program with their scores immediately following completing the program, 1-month, and 3-month after completing the program. Researchers hope to develop a program that improves mental health, quality of life, self-efficacy, and knowledge about CF.
A double-blind, active-controlled, multiple-ascending dose, safety study of aerosolized RSP-1502 in subjects with cystic fibrosis Pseudomonas aeruginosa lung infection.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the changes in coagulation factor VIII and IX levels in patients undergoing liver transplantation to help guide future management of coagulation factor replacement in patients with hemophilia and liver disease. The question we aim to answer is: should the recommendations for factor replacement in patients with hereditary bleeding disorders be altered in the setting of end stage liver cirrhosis? Participants will be asked to provide two blood samples, one at the beginning of their liver transplant, and one after their liver transplant.
The goal of the clinical trial is to test whether a mental health program that is delivered through the Internet works well for healthy children and adolescents with siblings with cystic fibrosis (CF). The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does the program improve the mental health and quality of life of healthy siblings? - Does the program improve the relationship between healthy children and adolescents and their sibling with CF? - Does the program help healthy siblings learn about CF? Participants will: - Fill out an online survey asking questions about their family and mental health before the program - Complete the online mental health program over five weeks - Fill out a weekly question asking about their mood for 10 weeks - Fill out an online survey asking questions about their family and mental health after the program Healthy children and adolescents with siblings with CF will be compared against themselves. Researchers will compare participants scores before starting the program with their scores during and after completing the program. Researchers hope to develop a program that improves mental health, quality of life, sibling relationships, and knowledge about CF.
This is a single-site prospective study to describe efficacy endpoints of single agent memantine in patients with unresectable, locally advanced, or metastatic HCC otherwise not deemed candidates for intensive systemic therapy. In addition to the primary endpoint and multiple secondary efficacy endpoints, we will describe changes in quality of life on treatment over time.
Conduct a community intervention study that will 1) validate a screening approach to identify patients at risk for advanced NAFLD in the obese or T2DM population, and 2) test whether semaglutide treatment is effective for the management of significant fibrosis due to NAFLD in high-risk patients.
