Filter by:The aim of this prospective, monocentric, non-randomized trial is to investigate the impact of catheter ablation of atrial tachyarrhythmias on the ABC-stroke and ABC-bleeding risk scores. Participants planned for first catheter ablation for symptomatic atrial tachyarrrhythmias (atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter) will be enrolled. Serial blood samples will be collected before and 3, 6 and 12 months after catheter ablation to calculate the ABC scores as well as the traditional bleeding and stroke risks. Following catheter ablation, continuous rhythm monitoring will be achieved using an insertable monitor or an implanted atrial lead of a cardiac implantable electronic device. Additionally, heart rate monitoring via photoplethysmography using a smartwatch and/or smartphone is performed for a period of six months. Data are analyzed for differences in ABC scores before and after ablation in relation to possible AF/AT recurrences. Furthermore, we are going to compare the sensitivity and specificity of different follow-up modalities post ablation. The monitoring via ICM (gold standard) is compared to smartwatch-based monitoring alone, versus smartphone-based monitoring alone or a combination of both for AT/AF recurrences.
This phase III trial compares the effect of the combination of ramucirumab and pembrolizumab versus standard of care chemotherapy for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer that is stage IV or that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). Ramucirumab is a monoclonal antibody that may prevent the growth of new blood vessels that tumors need to grow. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Chemotherapy drugs work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. This trial may help doctors find out if giving ramucirumab with pembrolizumab is more effective at treating patients with stage IV or recurrent non-small cell lung cancer than standard chemotherapy.
A unique approach for cancer treatment employing intratumoral diffusing alpha radiation emitter device for treatment of recurrent Lung Cancer .
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effects of resistance exercise and endurance in post-bariatric surgery patients with insuficcient weight loss. The main question it aims to answer is: - Is resistance exercise more effective than endurance exercise in preventing obesity relapse in post-bariatric surgery patients with insuficcient weight loss? - Is resistance exercise more effective than endurance exercise in increasing resting metabolic rate in post-bariatric surgery patients with insuficcient weight loss? Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the following groups: - Resistance group: performing resistance exercise-training for 16 weeks - Endurace group: performing endurance exercise-training for 16 weeks - Control group: no intervention / standard medical care
ARISTOCRAT is a phase II, multi-centre, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomised trial to compare the cannabinoid Nabiximols with placebo in patients with recurrent MGMT methylated glioblastoma (GBM) treated with temozolomide (TMZ).
The study is a prospective, single-center, single-arm, two-cohort, phase II clinical trial. Patients aged 18 years or older who had pelvic recurrence rectal cancer with or without resectable distant metastasis, with treatment naive disease (cohort A) or progressive disease after first-line chemotherapy (cohort B), Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0-1, will receive 25-40Gy/5Fx irradiation or 15-30Gy/5Fx reirradiation (pelvic radiation history), 18 weeks toripalimab and investigator's choice of chemotherapy, and stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) for all metastatic lesions between chemoimmunotherapy cycles, followed by multidisciplinary team (MDT) for decision:follow-up of complete response (CR), radical surgery, sustained treatment of non resection, or exit. The primary endpoint was local objective response rate. Secondary endpoints were extrapelvic objective response rate, R0 resection rate, duration of response, progression-free survival, overall survival, and safety and tolerability of the treatment. Shanghai Junshi Biomedical Technology Co., Ltd. Provides the first three cycles of toripalimab for free and has purchased liability insurance for clinical trial subjects.
This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of combination therapy with tazemetostat and belinostat in treating patients with lymphomas that have returned (relapsed) or resisted treatment (refractory). Tazemetostat is in a class of medications called EZH2 inhibitors. The EZH2 gene provides instructions for making a type of enzyme called histone methyltransferase which is involved in gene expression and cell division. Blocking EZH2 may help keep cancer cells from growing. Belinostat is in a class of medications called histone deacetylase inhibitors. Histone deacetylases are enzymes needed for cell division. Belinostat may kill cancer cells by blocking histone deacetylase. It may also prevent the growth of new blood vessels that tumors need to grow and may help make cancer cells easier to kill with other anticancer drugs. There is some evidence in animals and in living human cells that combination therapy with tazemetostat and belinostat can shrink or stabilize cancer, but it is not known whether this will happen in people. This trial may help doctors learn more about treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory lymphoma.
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma is one of the high incidence head and neck cancer in Southeast Asia. Radiotherapy is the main treatment for nasopharyngeal carcinoma, and its response rate can reach 80~90%. However, for radiotherapy resistant patients with metastasis and recurrence, the survival prognosis decreased significantly, and the 5-year overall survival rate was only 20% - 40%. Tranilast is an anti-allergic drug, which is clinically used to treat bronchial asthma and can inhibit fibroblasts α- SMA and type I collagen expression. Through experiments in vivo and in vitro, the investigators' research group has proved that Tranilast can inhibit the activity of tumor related fibroblasts, reduce the radiotherapy resistance of nasopharyngeal carcinoma, and has the radiosensitizing effect of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. This result has been published in J exp Clin cancer res (if=11.16). The investigators plan to carry out the clinical transformation of basic research, carry out a prospective intervention phase II clinical trial, compare the objective remission rate of patients with recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma treated with previous radiotherapy, and explore the safety and effectiveness of using Tranilast as a radiotherapy sensitizer for radiotherapy to resist the treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
This is a multi-center, open-label phase 1 dose escalation trial that uses a modified 3+3 design to identify a recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of AB-1015 cell product. Backfill cohorts will enroll additional subjects at doses deemed to be safe for a total enrollment of up to 12 subjects per each backfill cohort on the protocol.
This is a multi-centre, Phase 1/2, open-label clinical trial of the VTP-850 prime-boost immunotherapeutic in men with biochemical recurrence after definitive local therapy for prostate cancer.
