Filter by:This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of Orca-T, an allogeneic stem cell and T-cell immunotherapy biologic manufactured for each patient (transplant recipient) from the mobilized peripheral blood of a specific, unique donor. It is composed of purified hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs), purified regulatory T cells (Tregs), and conventional T cells (Tcons) in participants undergoing myeloablative allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant transplantation for hematologic malignancies. This posting represents the Phase III component of Precision-T. The Precision-T Ph1b component is described under NCT04013685.
Intermittent fasting is a method of restricting calories over a defined period of time and includes regimens such as whole-day fasting, alternate-day fasting, and time-restricted feeding. There is emerging evidence that intermittent fasting or energy restriction might be more beneficial than continuous energy restriction for some risk factors. The effect of intermittent fasting on risk factors associated with obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease, however, is not clear. The European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) has yet to make any recommendations regarding the role of intermittent fasting in the management of diabetes. To inform the update of the EASD Clinical Practice Guidelines for Nutrition Therapy, tthe Diabetes and Nutrition Study Group (DNSG) of the EASD has commissioned a systematic review and network meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials of the effect of different intermittent fasting strategies on established cardiometabolic risk factors. The findings generated by this proposed knowledge synthesis will shape guide current guidelines and improve health outcomes by educating healthcare providers and patients, and by guiding future research design.
This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, study of SPI-62 in subjects with ACTH-dependent Cushing's syndrome caused by a non-adrenal tumor. Subjects will receive each of the following 2 treatments for 24 weeks: SPI-62 and matching placebo with the option of long-term extension.
People with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), especially those with diarrhea (IBS-D), often describe worsening symptoms after eating certain foods. A structured dietary approach may represent a reliable strategy to improve their symptoms. In this framework, the diet low in oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides, and fermentable polyols (FODMAPs - LFD) has been demonstrated to mitigate symptoms and reduce inflammatory status, increase vitamin D content, and affect the lipidomic profile. Unfortunately, adherence to LFD can be somewhat problematic, needing continuous nutritional support. Other dietary approaches with putative beneficial effects have been proposed to overcome these limitations. Among them, Tritordeum-based foods (TBD, bread, bakery products, and pasta) in substitution of other cereals seem to achieve promising results. TBD may represent a valid alternative, with high palatability, especially among Italian patients for whom pasta is considered one of the main assets of dietetic culture and easier to manage in their daily habits. Given these premises, this study aims to evaluate, in a randomized single-blinded controlled trial, the effects of 12-weeks of TBD compared with LFD and dietary advice of the same duration in improving the symptom profile well as the intestinal permeability and reducing putative dysbiosis of IBS-D patients. Along with the clinical study, an evaluation of gluten and proteomic composition will be performed to examine more in detail the intrinsic characteristics of Tritordeum.
This two-phase pilot study will test the feasibility of a "combined chronotherapy" (CC) intervention consisting of morning bright light therapy (BLT) and evening blue light blocking (BLB), administered daily for 4 weeks in patients who experienced acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Phase A of the study will be a single-arm open-label study of the home-based CC intervention in 5 post-ACS patients. Phase B of the study will be a parallel-arm randomized clinical trial (RCT) in which 15 post-ACS patients will be randomized (using a 2:1 allocation) to active CC treatment or sleep hygiene education control group. In Phase A and Phase B, the primary aims are study feasibility, acceptability, appropriateness, and usability. In Phase B, the investigator will additionally assess whether the intervention engages its proposed proximal target mechanism - sleep.
Multi-system Inflammatory Syndrome in Children (MIS-C) is a new condition related to COVID-19, the study investigators are still learning about its causes, effects, and long-term impact. "Long-Term Outcomes after the Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome In Children", the Coronavirus MUSIC Study, is a research study funded by NIH and the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute. The study investigators hope to enroll at least 900 young people with MIS-C at children's medical centers in the U.S. and Canada. This research study will help us learn more about MIS-C and its effects on the long-term health of children.
Children with West syndrome are prone to refractory seizures with poor neurocognitive outcome overall. The current standard of care consists of treatment with ACTH, but the grade of evidence is not high and not much RCTs are available. Ketogenic diet is an effective and well tolerated treatment option in drug refractory epilepsy and also in refractory west syndrome. In view of minimal side effects, better cost parameters and ability to continue for a longer duration our study aiims to investigate the efficacy of ketogenic diet as a first line therapy in comparison to ACTH therapy. Children with west syndrome after satisfying the inclusion and exclusion criteria will be randomised into the two treatment arms and primary response will be noted at the end of 6 weeks of therapy in terms of mean percentage of spasm reduction.
The purpose of this study is to investigate efficacy of phonophoresis with vitamin B12 on median nerve distal latency, pain level and hand grip strength in patients with carpal tunnel syndrome. At least Fifty four Patients from both sexes will be recruited for this study from various hospitals in 6th October city - Group A (n = 27): will receive Phonophoresis with Vitamin B12 gel. - Group B (n = 27): will receive placebo phonophoresis with Vitamin B12 gel. Median nerve distal latency, hand grip strength and numerical pain rating scale will be measured at baseline and after 3 weeks.
Given that there is a significant prevalence of Lynch syndrome among patients with endometrial cancer (about 5% of patients with endometrial cancer), and given there is a known risk of endometrial cancer among patients with endometrial hyperplasia (40% risk of pre-existing occult cancer with endometrial intraepithelial neoplasia), it is hypothesized that a diagnosis of endometrial hyperplasia may herald on-going risk of harboring a Lynch Syndrome gene mutation. The purpose of this study is to examine endometrial hyperplasia specimens and compare the frequency of Lynch Syndrome gene mutations between endometrial hyperplasia and endometrial cancer subjects. This will provide a rationale and opportunity for earlier screening, and reduce colon cancer morbidity and mortality secondary to the Lynch syndrome gene.
The purpose of this study is to assesses the clinical efficacy of oral supplementation with glutamine over 3 years.
