Filter by:Factors influencing the prognosis of patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) have been extensively studied. Previous studies have found that elevated serum total bilirubin levels are associated with cardiac death, heart failure readmission, and all-cause mortality in patients with chronic heart failure. However, the relationship between direct bilirubin and prognosis in patients with HFpEF is unclear.
This study aims to evaluate the activity and safety of the combination of platinum-pemetrexed based chemotherapy plus Lorlatinib in ALK positive Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) with exclusively extracranial disease progression on Lorlatinib. Platinum-pemetrexed based chemotherapy plus Lorlatinib will be administered for an induction phase of four cycles. Subsequently, patients with response or stability of disease at radiological assessment will start the maintenance phase with pemetrexed-Lorlatinib in 21-day cycles until progression, unacceptable toxicity, death, or withdrawal of consent.
To explore the predictive value of immune cells by single-cell sequencing on the outcome of locally advanced cervical cancer treated by concurrent chemoradiotherapy Followed by PD-1 inhibitor
Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people who have advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with specific genetic changes called epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) mutations. Advanced NSCLC refers to a type of lung cancer that has spread from the lungs to nearby tissues or other body parts. People with advanced NSCLC may have changes in certain proteins, like EGFR and HER2, that cause uncontrolled cell growth and increased spread of cancer. In this study, participants will be healthy and will not benefit from taking the study treatment, BAY2927088. However, the study will provide information about how to test BAY2927088 in future studies with people who have advanced NSCLC with EGFR or HER2 mutations. BAY2927088 is under development for the treatment of advanced NSCLC with EGFR or HER2 mutations. It is expected to work against these changed proteins, which might slow down the spread of cancer. The absorption of BAY2927088 into the blood is dependent on the amount of acid present in the stomach. Esomeprazole is a medicine which is used in the treatment of heartburn and excessive acid in the stomach. Both food and esomeprazole may change the amount of acid present in the stomach. The main purpose of this study is to find out how food and esomeprazole may affect the absorption of BAY2927088 into the blood of healthy participants. For this, researchers will measure the levels of BAY2927088 in participants' blood when it is given with or without food as well as with or without esomeprazole. Researchers will then calculate the following: - Area under the curve (AUC): a measure of the total amount of BAY2927088 in participants' blood over time - Maximum observed concentration (Cmax): the highest amount of BAY2927088 in participants' blood The study will have 4 treatment periods: - Periods 1 to 3 (Day 1 to Day 9): All participants will take BAY2927088 with a low-fat meal, with a high-fat meal, and on an empty stomach, but in a different order, over the 3 study periods. Each period will last for 3 days and BAY2927088 will be given on the first day of each period. On Day 9, participants will take esomeprazole on an empty stomach. - Period 4 (Day 10 to Day 14): On Days 10 and 11, participants will take esomeprazole on an empty stomach. On Day 12, participants will take esomeprazole on an empty stomach. After 1 and a half hours, participants will take low-fat meal and BAY2927088. On Day 13, participants will take esomeprazole on an empty stomach. Participants will be in this study for about 8 weeks with 3 visits to the study clinic. Participants will visit the study clinic: - at least once, 2 to 28 days before the treatment starts, to confirm they can take part in this study - once on the day before the treatment starts and will stay in the clinic until Day 14 of the treatment - once, 7 to 10 days after last dose of BAY2927088, for a health check-up During the study, the doctors and their study team will: - do physical examinations - collect blood samples from the participants to measure the levels of BAY2927088 - check participants' health by performing tests, such as blood and urine tests, and checking heart health using an electrocardiogram (ECG) - ask the participants questions about how they are feeling and what adverse events they are having An adverse event is any medical problem that a participant has during a study. The study doctors keep track of all adverse events, irrespective of whether they think it is related or not to the study treatment.
This study aims to determine the safety and tolerability of combining sequential therapy of Irreversible Electroporation (IRE) and Immunotherapy (IO) for patients with locally advanced unresectable pancreas cancer following first-line treatment with chemotherapy and ablative stereotactic magnetic resonance image-guided adaptive radiation therapy (A-SMART).
The purpose of The Preeclampsia Registry is to collect and store medical and other information from women who have been medically diagnosed with preeclampsia or a related hypertensive (high blood pressure) disorder of pregnancy such as eclampsia or HELLP syndrome, their family members, and women who have not had preeclampsia to serve as controls. Information from participants will be used for medical research to try to understand why preeclampsia occurs, how to predict it better, and to develop experimental clinical trials of new treatments. The Registry will consist of a web-based survey and mechanism for collecting and reviewing medical records. This data will be utilized for immediate investigator-driven cross-sectional research projects (after proposal review by the Registry's scientific advisory board and as directed by the PI). Participants may also choose to be contacted regarding possible participation in future studies, about providing a biospecimen, as well as investigator-driven clinical trials. The Registry is anticipated to exist long-term and to serve as a foundation of participants from which to draw for studies of preeclampsia, anticipated to evolve as our scientific understanding of preeclampsia evolves.
With the cardiopulmonary exercise testing as the primary outcome, the study aims to evaluate the efficacy of Qishen Granules on cardiac function, quality of life and biomarker level of patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), which will provide evidence for the treatment of HFpEF with traditional Chinese medicine.
The patients diagnosed with relapsed/refractory or advanced NK/T-cell Lymphoma (r/r NKTCL) were selected as the research objects. To explore effective and safe treatment for advanced or r/r NKTCL, the combination of PI3K-δ inhibitor Linperlisib with PD-1 blockade Camrelizumab and anti-metabolic agent Pegaspargase was applied for the treatment.
Study rationale: to evaluate clinical and prognostic relevance of microvascular dysfunction, coronary flow reserve and cardioprotective effects of iv administration of esmolol in patients with myocardial infarction. First substudy is an open randomized trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of early intravenous administration of esmolol in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (MI) and relative contraindications to administration of other intravenous β1-adrenergic blocker (metoprolol etс.). Сomparison group will include patients who have not received intravenous β1-adrenergic blocker. Secondary outcome in this substudy is the degree of microvascular obstruction and infarct size according to MRI with gadolinium delayed enhancement. Second substudy examines the quantitative parameters of coronary physiology in patients with MI and multivessel disease. Changes of coronary physiology measurements over time ((iFR, Pd/Pa, FFR, delta FFR, gradient FFR per time unit (dFFR(t)/dt), pullback pressure gradient (PPG)) measured in the infarct-related artery and in non-infarct-related arteries with diameter stenosis of 50-85% immediately after the completion of a primary percutaneous coronary intervention and during a second hospitalization (30-45 days after STEMI) will be evaluated. The comparison changes of coronary physiology over time with presence of an MVO and infarct size determined by MRI. The model of calculating coronary flow reserve (CFR) based on tridimensional reconstruction of coronary arteries and coronary physiology parameters as measured during coronary angiography will be developed. The influence of coronary physiology parameters measured after complete myocardial revascularization by PCI, and derived CFR in patients with MI on long-term clinical outcomes will be evaluated, based on prospective data collection. Primary composite outcome in all substudies will be the sum of adverse cardiac outcomes (congestive heart failure, episodes of recurrent congestive heart failure worsening resulting in hospitalizations, cardiac mortality, MI recurrences, unstable angina, urgent myocardial revascularization) within > 12 months post-infarction. Secondary composite outcome in all substudies is the degree of microvascular obstruction and infarct size evaluated by MRI with gadolinium delayed enhancement.
This study is a single-center, open-label Phase II clinical trial, aiming to enroll approximately 30 unresectable BCLC stage B or C hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients from China. The primary objective is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of AK112 (a dual-specific antibody against PD-1/VEGF) in combination with hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) for the treatment of unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma. All enrolled subjects will receive AK112 (20mg/kg Q3W) combined with HAIC (utilizing the FOLFOX chemotherapy regimen) until the investigator determines no further clinical benefit (based on RECIST v1.1 imaging evaluation and clinical assessment), intolerable toxicity, completion of 24 months of treatment, or meeting other criteria for treatment discontinuation as outlined in the protocol, whichever occurs first.
