Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine whether the implementation of pre-emptive pharmacogenomic (PGx) testing of a panel of clinically relevant PGx markers, to guide the dose and drug selection for 39 commonly prescribed drugs, will result in an overall reduction in the number of clinically relevant drug-genotype associated ADRs which are causally related to the initial drug of inclusion (referred to as 'index drug').
Psilocin is the active metabolite of psilocybin a natural material found in several types of fungi. The bioavailability of psilocybin, the prodrug of psilocin, has been reported to be over 60%. However, pharmacokinetics and bioavailability of psilocin mucate has not been reported. This Phase I "First in Man" study of psilocin mucate is designed to determine its safety, pharmacokinetics, and bioavailability. The study is conducted under the supervision of physicians and psychiatrists who also will administer a mini-mental state evaluation and report observable anti-anxiolytic effect of the dosage. Safety and possible indications of efficacy will be tracked during the study period, a week following the dose administration and one month after.
This study is a phase III, multicenter, prospective randomized controlled clinical study comparing the efficacy of non-surgical esophageal squamous cell carcinoma with radical chemoradiotherapy and radical chemoradiotherapy combined with consolidation chemotherapy. The survival time and side effects of patients were observed and compared.
Previous studies show that the majority NMIBC patients experience side effects to BCG and therefore terminate the instillations before completing all planned instillations. This will increase their risk of recurrence and potential cystectomy. The purpose of this study is to investigate if NMIBC patients who experience severe side effects to BCG instillations will experience fewer or less severe side effects if reducing dwell-time of BCG instillations. The study will include patients from Denmark, Iceland, Norway and Sweden.
- Single centre observational cohort study. - 20 older patients undergoing cardiac surgery who receive standard of care pain treatment. - Postoperative ICU: blood sampling to determine morphine and metabolite (M3G, M6G, noroxycodone and oxymorphone) pharmacokinetics - After ICU discharge on general ward: blood sampling to determine morphine, oxycodone and metabolite (M3G, M6G, noroxycodone and oxymorphone) pharmacokinetics - During study monitoring of pain scores, total opioid consumption, side effects (e.g. nausea, vomiting, pruritus), sedation and delirium scores.
Preterm labor is one of the problems of obstetrics, and is one of the leading cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality. The incidence of preterm birth is around 7 to 9 %. The preterm baby is prone to respiratory, renal, neurologic and gastrointestinal problems. The correct diagnosis should be followed by the early administration of the most effective tocolytic agent with least side effects for both mother and fetus. Nifedipine, a calcium channel blocker, has gained a world-wide popularity recently since it has the least side-effects on both mother and fetus. In the present study, we aimed to evaluate the success rate of tocolytic agent 'nifedipine' on the spontaneous preterm labor of singeton pregnant women with intact amnionic membrane.
The role of a single-dose intraoperative methadone on postoperative pain and opioid consumption in patients undergoing Surgeon Accuracy Robot Assistant cystectomy. A prospective double-blind, randomized controlled trial investigating the effect of a single-dose of intraoperative methadone in patients undergoing robotassisted cystectomy.
Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) is a biomedical strategy consisting of the use of antiretroviral therapy by HIV-seronegative people at high risk of acquiring HIV, to prevent the infection. Many controlled and randomized clinical trials, as well as implementation projects have shown that the use of tenofovir disoproxil (TDF) and emtricitabine (FTC) is both safe and effective in the prevention of HIV infection. However, the administrative situation of PrEP in Spain is anomalous. Unlike in some European countries, PrEP is not available within the National Health System (SNS), although being available for the treatment of HIV infection. In Spain the fixed-dose combination of FTC / TDF is for hospital use only, which requires prescription by HIV specialists exclusively and restricts its dispensation to pharmacy services within the hospital. This limitation in access and the knowledge of its prevention capacity of PrEP by vulnerable population has led them to obtain "generic FTC / TDF" outside the standardized health care system. According to a survey conducted in Europe to characterize MSM users of PrEP carried out in 2016, 5% of PrEP users had acquired it on their own. Of these 70% stated they were not included in any regular follow-up program while using the medication. Despite the growing demand, there are no health programs (including information, counseling, systematic screening for sexually transmissible infection (STI), etc.) aimed at meeting the health care needs of those who already use or wish to use PrEP, neither by public nor private healthcare providers. This type of service is especially necessary when considering that, among PrEP users, one may have already an established HIV infection, theoretical increase of other STI and a lack of monitoring kidney functions.. BCN Checkpoint is a community center since 2006 for the detection of HIV and other STI aimed at gay men, other men who have sex with men (MSM) and transgender women (TGW), which has shown high efficiency in HIV screening and fast referral to standard HIV care and treatment.. In 2017 the organization opened BCN PrEP·Point, a community centre with the goal to provide information, to conduct clinical trials and clinical monitoring of informal PrEP use. For this reason, it is presented here the protocol of the SeguiPrEP study, prospective, longitudinal study of health care in the community environment, to MSM and TGW, users of informal PrEP, based on point-of-care testing technology.
The overall aim of the study is to compare safety and immunogenicity of inactivated influenza vaccine (IIV), adjuvanted (FLUAD®) versus High-Dose inactivated influenza (Fluzone® High-Dose) vaccine in persons ≥65 years (20% aged ≥80 years). A prospective, randomized, blinded clinical trial that will be conducted during the 2017/2018 and 2018/2019 influenza seasons. During each season, approximately 220 older adults will be enrolled at Duke University Medical Center and 140 older adults at Boston University Medical Center. Eligible subjects will be randomized to receive either adjuvanted influenza vaccine or High-Dose influenza vaccine. All subjects will receive vaccine and provide a blood draw at Visit 1, and then return for a second blood draw without vaccination about 4 weeks later to assess for influenza antibody titers. A subset of 100 subjects at Duke will provide a third blood draw 6 months post-vaccination to assess for waning of influenza antibody titers. Subjects will record the occurrence of local and systemic reactions (including fever, pain, tenderness, swelling, redness, general systemic systems), unsolicited adverse events, medical care utilization, and changes in medications over 8 days following vaccination. In addition, serious adverse events and events of clinical interest will be assessed through 42 days post-vaccination. Health-related quality of life will be assessed pre-vaccination (Day 1) and on Days 3 and 9 post-vaccination.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the anti-emetic effect of oral ondansetron. For this evaluation, the investigators will perform a multi-center, double-blind, placebo-controled, randomized study. The investigators assumption is that oral ondansetron prior to intramuscular ketamine will reduce the occurrence of ketamine-induced vomiting.
