Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the safety and effectiveness of LAM-001 in patients who have developed bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS), a form of chronic rejection, after lung transplantation. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is LAM-001 safe in these patients? - Is LAM-001 effective in slowing BOS progression? Participants will: - Be randomly assigned to inhale either LAM-001 or placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no active drug) daily for 48 weeks - Attend 10 study visits (mixture of in-person and telehealth) over the 48 week period - Undergo pulmonary function testing, bronchoscopy, lab testing, and physical examination - Submit weekly home spirometry monitoring Researchers will compare participants assigned to LAM-001 versus placebo to see if LAM-001 is safely tolerated and to assess the effectiveness of LAM-001 on slowing BOS progression.
Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) encompasses a continuum of clinical situations secondary to acute myocardial ischemia. In France, it is a major health problem and represented 60,000 to 65,000 hospitalizations in 2010. In 2015, a diagnosis of ACS was made in 15 to 25% of patients consulting for chest pain in emergency medicine. The incidence of ACS is estimated between 80,000 and 100,000 new cases per year. At the University Hospital Center (CHU) of Réunion, acute chest pain is the leading cause of discharges from the Mobile Emergency and Resuscitation Service (SMUR). In 2019, it represented 23% of exits, 8.5% of which concerned SCAs. The SCA can be anxiety-provoking due to its unexpected and brutal nature. Pain related to myocardial ischemia generates anxiety. This increases when patients associate these pains with death. This anxiety is exacerbated by waiting times for care, especially for patients living in rural areas. In addition, conditions relating to medical care such as noise and the pre-hospital medical environment are perceived as influencing anxiety by patients. The prevalence of anxiety is high, ranging from 30 to 48.5%, in patients with chest pain and/or ACS. A 2020 meta-analysis revealed that anxious patients at the start of their ACS treatment had an increased risk of death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, rehospitalization, recurrence of ACS and the need for coronary revascularization repeated. Overall, ACS patients with anxiety have a 21% increased risk of mortality and 47% increased risk of adverse cardiovascular events compared to those without anxiety. Pre-hospital anxiolytic treatment is therefore essential and consists above all in reassuring the patient with ACS. Medicated anxiolytics are often combined with analgesics and recommended in front of a picture of agitation due to anxiety. However, negative effects may interfere, making clinical monitoring of these patients unsuitable. At the same time, several studies note that anxiety is underdiagnosed and undertreated in the care of these patients. In reducing the anxiety of patients with ACS, unconventional care techniques such as aromatherapy or touch massage have demonstrated their effectiveness. Music therapy is recognized in reducing the anxiety of patients in intensive care or Cardiology. To the knowledge, in France, the effect of a musical intervention on patients with pre-hospital ACS has not yet been studied. It is in this context that the MuSCA study takes place.
Primary Mitochondrial diseases are a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of disorders caused by mutations in genes encoded by nuclear Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) or by mutations and/or deletions in the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). While some mitochondrial disorders only affect a single organ (e.g., the eye in Leber hereditary optic neuropathy [LHON]), many involve multiple organs. Mitochondrial disorders may present at any age and a frequent feature is the increasing number of organs involved in the course of the disease. Minovia Therapeutics Ltd. ("Minovia") is a biotech company developing novel therapeutics based on its mitochondrial augmentation technology (MAT). MNV-201 is a cell therapy produced by MAT that consists of the participant's autologous CD34+ hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) enriched with allogeneic placental-derived mitochondria, manufactured in Minovia's GMP facility.
Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) can significantly affect an individual's ability perform to functional activities, such as walking, running, climbing stairs, and sitting for prolonged periods. PFPS is often associated with pain and discomfort in the front of the knee, which can limit an individual's range of motion and cause difficulty with weight-bearing activities. The pain may also be exacerbated by activities that involve bending the knee, such as squatting or kneeling. Whole body vibration (WBV) has been suggested as a potential intervention for patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS). Some studies have shown that WBV can improve muscle strength, balance, and proprioception, which are all factors that may contribute to PFPS. Additionally, WBV may help reduce pain and improve functional abilities in individuals with PFPS However, the evidence for the effectiveness of WBV as an intervention for PFPS is still limited, and more research is needed to fully understand its potential benefits and limitations. It is important to note that WBV may not be suitable for all individuals with PFPS.
A single-center, open-label, off-label use investigator-initiated clinical study with safety run-in to explore the clinical activity and safety of Anti-CD38 Antibody in adult ES patients who have not responded adequately or relapsed after first-line treatment and at least one second-line therapy including immunosuppressive agents, Anti-CD20 Antibody and/or TPO-RA, or those in whom no other second-line treatment options are suitable.
The purpose of the study is to prospectively assess longitudinal changes in biomarkers (MECP2, potential biomarkers of target engagement and disease activity) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and blood; characterize longitudinal changes in performance on clinical scales (clinician-reported measures of neurodevelopment and functioning) and caregiver-reported outcome assessments (communication, gastrointestinal, social-emotional-adaptive behavioral measures); evaluate longitudinal changes in caregiver-reported health-related quality-of-life measures; and assess the frequency, type, and severity of seizures over time.
This study will investigate how different types of routine sedation may affect patient's breathing whilst on a ventilator in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). There are different approaches to sedation which may have advantages and disadvantages. During the study patients will receive both intravenous and inhaled volatile sedation (similar to anaesthetic 'gases' used for general anaesthesia) and the drive to breath, breathing efforts and function of the lung will be assessed.
Disorders of glycemic regulation are common in patients hospitalized for acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Abnormal glycaemia is observed in 50% of cases, in 30-40% diabetes, and in 25-35% fasting hyperglycaemia or glucose intolerance. Hyperglycemia is a major prognostic factor in ACS, with admission hyperglycemia having independent prognostic value for both short- and long-term major cardiovascular events (MACE), regardless of the presence of diabetes. Metabolically, several situations can be distinguished: - Hyperglycaemia occurs in known non-diabetic ACS subjects. It can be indicative of (i) Type 2 Diabetes or (ii) stress hyperglycaemia (diagnostic threshold for blood sugar varies according to learned societies, with HbA1c < 6.5%). - Hyperglycaemia occurs in known diabetic ACS subjects Most studies use admission blood sugar as a predictor. However, it has recently been shown that glycemic variability indexes would be better predictors of MACE. Using continuous glucose measurement for 48 h, it has been shown that significant glycemic variability is a more powerful predictor of MACE at 1 year than admission glycemia The measurement of glycemic variability is mainly possible thanks to the development of CGM (continuous glucose measurement). To our knowledge, no study has been interested in evaluating the predictive value of the various glycemic parameters measured by CGM. Published studies have used continuous glucose measurements for very short periods (24 or 72 hours maximum), which limits these measurements. The freestyle libre Pro iQ (FSLPro iQ) is a professional sensor for continuous, non-invasive interstitial glucose measurement allowing the recording of glycemic parameters for 2 weeks. Our hypothesis is that glycaemic parameters, alone or in combination with each other or with other patient risk factors, measured with the Freestyle libre Pro iQ have a significant prognostic value in terms of cardiovascular clinical events at 12 months in a population of patients with ACS managed as standard and followed up.
This clinical trial aims to compare conventional radial access versus distal radial access in patients with STEMI undergoing PCI. The main question it aims to answer is: • Mayor adverse cardiac events (MACE) at 30 days in STEMI patients treated by PCI are not inferior when comparing the distal radial approach versus the conventional radial approach ? Participants will: - sign the informed consent to enroll in the clinical trial. - will agree to be treated by PCI - will be randomized 1:1 to perform PCI by conventional radial or distal radial approach. If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare conventional radial access vs distal radial access to see if the distal approach is not inferior compared to the conventional radial access in order to offer less or equal MACE and a similar rate of a successful procedure.
