NCT ID: NCT06439290 Recruiting - Surgery Clinical Trials

Voice Outcome of Glottoplasty, Cricothyroid Approximation, Thyroplasty, and Chondrolaryngoplasty

Start date: April 10, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to measure the short- and long-term voice outcome and outcome predictors of glottoplasty, cricothyroid approximation, thyroplasty, and chondrolaryngoplasty using a prospective non-randomized controlled trial and a multidimensional voice assessment protocol. Secondly, a laryngeal magnetic resonance imaging protocol will be developed to measure pre- and postoperative anatomical factors and compare them with the acoustic changes.

NCT ID: NCT05746780 Completed - Larynx Cancer Clinical Trials

Bilateral Elective Neck Dissection in Salvage Total Laryngectomy

Start date: September 1, 2020
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The aim of this study is to evaluate the role of elective bilateral neck dissection in patients with clinically negative lymph nodes (cN0) who underwent salvage total laryngectomy, by estimating the prevalence of histologically positive occult lymph nodes (pN+). Secondary objective will be the assessment of complication rate and the evaluation of 5-year Overall Survival (OS) and 5-year Disease-Specific Survival (DSS) in these patients.

NCT ID: NCT05636410 Recruiting - Larynx Clinical Trials

Ultrasound Assessment of the Larynx and Trachea in the Neonatal Period

Start date: June 14, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

Diseases of the larynx and trachea are a heterogenous group of disorders. Witch may include congenital anatomical disorders, neoplastic changes, vocal cord paralysis of varied aetiology or narrowing of the larynx associated with long-term intubation. The multitude of disorders of these organs necessitates the continuing search for diagnostic methods which will not only provide answers to clinical questions but will also be safe and with the least level of interference with the wellbeing of the patient, which is of particular importance in the neonate. In recent decades only a few studies have been reported which described the ultrasound anatomy of the larynx prior to and following intubation or that of the mobility of the vocal cords. To date, no standards have been published concerning the size of the structures of the larynx and trachea or the mobility of the vocal cords on ultrasound examination in the neonate. Additionally, there are no recommendations which include ultrasound examination as a reliable component of the diagnosis of congenital disorders of the larynx or other diseases of this organ. Ultrasound is a non-invasive, repeatable and safe diagnostic method, which has recently, thanks the development of technology, provided for the very accurate imaging of even small structures, as well as their assessment on dynamic examination. Furthermore, the easy availability of this examination may in the future contribute to the early diagnosis of diseases of the larynx and trachea without the need to prolong neonatal hospitalization or anaesthesia. In addition, the use of neural networks to analyse the ultrasound images obtained will provide for the development of algorithms which could become an irreplaceable tool, not only in the diagnosis of the disorders described, but also in predicating disorders affecting their further development or functional disorders in infancy.

NCT ID: NCT05565430 Recruiting - Asthma Clinical Trials

Vocal Cord Responses During Hyperventilation in Normal Individuals and in Mild and Severe Asthmatics.

Start date: June 1, 2018
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The Investigators aim to: 1. Study the effect of hyperventilation on the development of paradoxical vocal cord movement (PVCM) in healthy individuals and in patients with mild and severe asthma, 2. Relate PVCM to airway symptoms and measurements of intra- and extra-thoracic airway hyperresponsiveness (ET-AHR), 3. Evaluate the effects of inhaled anti-cholinergic agents on PVCM induced by hyperventilation. Hypotheses: 1. In health PVCM will not occur in response to hyperventilation, 2. In asthma PVCM will occur in response to hyperventilation, 3. Airway symptoms and ET-AHR will develop in parallel with PVCM, 4. Inhaled anticholinergic agents will prevent PVCM induced by hyperventilation.

NCT ID: NCT05145556 Recruiting - Larynx Clinical Trials

Teach Intubation by Novices in Anaesthesiology

TeachIntub
Start date: December 2, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Comparision of direct laryngoscopy and video laryngoscopy to learn successful tracheal intubation by novices in anaesthesiology

NCT ID: NCT04168671 Withdrawn - Larynx Clinical Trials

CLE During Exercise Testing in Asthma

CLEtesting
Start date: March 1, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose is to assess visualize the level of laryngeal obstruction and vocal cord dysfunction and to obtain more information on causes for dyspnea in asthma and severe asthma and to assess safety of CLE in patients with asthma and with severe asthma. Patients are examined if symptomatic during exercise.

NCT ID: NCT03854032 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Nivolumab and BMS986205 in Treating Patients With Stage II-IV Squamous Cell Cancer of the Head and Neck

Start date: April 9, 2019
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This phase II trial studies how well nivolumab works, with or without BMS986205, in treating patients with stage II-IV squamous cell cancer of the head and neck. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. BMS986205 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving nivolumab with BMS986205 may work better than nivolumab alone in treating patients with squamous cell cancer of the head and neck.

NCT ID: NCT03737968 Active, not recruiting - Larynx Clinical Trials

Window of Opportunity Trial of Durvalumab (MEDI4736) or Durvalumab/Tremelimumab as Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy to Identify Immune Dynamics in Surgically Resectable Head and Neck Cancer Patients.

Start date: January 2, 2019
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This is a phase II randomized, open label study of durvalumab with/ without tremelimumab as neoadjuvant therapy and durvalumab maintenance after SoC RTx with/without cisplatin as post-surgical adjuvant therapy in treatment naïve participants with newly diagnosed resectable LA HNSCC. The study will be conducted in conformance with Good Clinical Practices (GCP). Approximately 44 participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to below two Arms

NCT ID: NCT03529422 Active, not recruiting - Oral Cancer Clinical Trials

Durvalumab With Radiotherapy for Adjuvant Treatment of Intermediate Risk SCCHN

Start date: October 7, 2019
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to investigate other drugs that may be combined with radiation to treat cancer. The study focuses on determining whether a combination of durvalumab with radiation can both improve cure rate and at the same time have less serious side effects. Throughout this document, this investigational drug will be referred to as the "study drug", or named individually (durvalumab). The study drug in this research is referred to as investigational because the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not yet approved itfor the treatment of head and neck cancer. Durvalumab was FDA approved in 2017 for the treatment of certain types of bladder cancer, but has not been approved for use in Head and Neck cancer patients. Durvalumab is an experimental drug that uses the body's immune system to fight the cancer. This study drug is being used in other ongoing clinical trials for other types of cancers. The doctor feels that a patient may experience fewer side effects using this study drug with radiation rather than using cisplatin. The doctor is also investigating whether using this drug can increase the effectiveness of treatment.

Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional
