NCT05444348
Patients diagnosed with hematologic cancer are at substantial risk of dying, as 5-year survival among patients with acute myeloid leukemia is 20 % and only every second patient treated for incurable myeloma lives 5 years after date of diagnosis. Nevertheless, many overestimate their prognosis, and value of therapy. Patients with hematological cancers frequently have poor end of life outcomes, such as high treatment activity close to death, where clinical effects are doubtful, and low utilization of palliative care. Prognostic awareness and end of life (EOL) issues have urgency in the communication between patients, their caregiving relatives, and clinicians, in order to avoid futile treatments and suffering at EOL. Inspired by advanced care planning, the investigators developed the concept "Advance Consultations Concerning participants Life and Treatment" (ACT) in collaboration with a group consisting of hematologists, nurses, patients, and caregivers. The ACT concept consists of an 8-hour training day for clinicians, clinical tools, system changes, and preparation material for patients and caregivers prior to the consultation. ACT involves patients and caregivers earlier in preparation for life with chronic progressive disease and EOL-decisions, through an intervention based on compassionate communication and early planning of EOL-care. The aim of the study is to investigate the effect of the intervention on use of chemotherapy and quality of EOL-care in patients with hematological malignancy. Based on the results of the completed pilot study, the investigators are planning a nationwide 2-arm cluster randomized controlled trial where 40 physicians and 80 nurses across seven different hematological departments are randomized to either usual care or ACT training and completing ACT conversations. The investigators expect to include a total of 400 patients and their family caregivers. It is hypothesized that the ACT intervention will decrease use of futile chemotherapy, prepare patients and caregivers for difficult end-of-life-decisions, and improve quality of end-of-life care in hematology.
NCT05309733
VOR33 long-term follow-up (LTFU) study
NCT07089940
This early phase I trial studies the biological activity of OMO-103 in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). OMO-103 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. This trial may help researchers determine how exposure to OMO-103 changes pancreatic tumor cells.
NCT07091006
Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) is the only treatment that offers a possible cure for relapsed/refractory AML. Currently, the optimal preallo-HCT bridging regimen for relapsed/refractory AML patients is unclear. Venetoclax-based regimens, including Venetoclax + demethylating agents (HMA) , Venetoclax + HMA + other drugs and Venetoclax-based multidrug combinations as a bridging regimen improves response rate and post-transplant survival in relapsed/refractory AML patients. Therefore, the investigators conduct a prospective single-centre clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of VAH as a transplant bridging regimen for relapsed/refractory AML.
NCT04906746
To assess toxicity with use of Ruxolitinib in NSCLC cachexia patients; to associate levels of JAK/STAT signaling in blood, adipose, and muscle pre- and post-ruxolitinib treatment with changes in cachexia and anorexia.
NCT04160390
This trial uses blood samples to understand how patients' bodies process and respond to a drug called cyclophosphamide given after a donor stem cell transplant. Identifying biomarkers (molecules that can indicate normal or abnormal processes) may help researchers develop a blood test that can be used to predict how well patients will process and respond to cyclophosphamide.
NCT02769962
Background: EP0057 (formerly CRLX101) consists of a sugar molecule cyclodextrin linked to a chemotherapy drug called camptothecin. The combined molecule or "nanoparticle drug conjugate" travels through the blood. Once inside cancer cells, the chemotherapy drug is released from the molecule. Olaparib is a drug that may stop cancer cells from repairing the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) damage caused by chemotherapy. Researchers want to see how safe it is to give EP0057 and olaparib together and to see how well the combination treats a specific type of lung cancer called small cell lung cancer (SCLC). Objectives: To test the safety and maximum dose of EP0057 and olaparib together. To test how well they treat small cell lung cancer. Eligibility: Adults 18 and older with small cell lung cancer. Design: Participants will be screened with standard cancer care tests. Participants will get the 2 study drugs in 28-day cycles. EP0057 will be given every 2 weeks, through a small plastic tube in an arm vein. Olaparib will be taken by mouth twice a day most days. Participants will keep a pill diary. For Cycle 1, participants will have 3 visits. All other cycles will have 2 visits. At study visits, participants may have: * Blood and hair samples taken * History and Physical exam * Questions about health and side effects * Pregnancy test * Optional tumor biopsy where a piece of tumor is removed by needle after numbing the skin. * Computed tomography (CT) scan * Injection of EP0057 (twice per cycle) * Olaparib prescription Participants will have a follow-up visit 4 weeks after finish taking the drugs. They will have a physical exam and blood tests. They may have a tumor biopsy. The study team will call the patient every 3 months for follow up after completing the study treatment.
NCT04051827
The purpose of this study is to characterize the effect of repeated oral administration of TAK-788 160 milligram (mg) once daily on the single oral and intravenous dose pharmacokinetics (PK) of midazolam.
NCT06957444
The patients from the Department of Orthopaedics Center for Joint Replacement will be asked to participate in the study. These patients will be randomized to one of three wound closure products, Sylke adhesive dressing, Exofin skin glue, or Suture Strip Plus. Participants will be asked to take a photograph of the incision 4 days after surgery to submit via MyChart for review by the WVU Department of Dermatology Team. All patients will be evaluated at their regular 2-week, 6-week, and 3-month post-operative visits where clinical photographs will be submitted for independent review by the WVU Department of Dermatology Team to assess outcomes.
NCT05756569
This phase II trial tests how well enfortumab vedotin (EV) and pembrolizumab works in treating patients with bladder cancer of variant histology (a group of less common types of bladder cancer) that have spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Enfortumab vedotin is a monoclonal antibody, enfortumab, linked to an anticancer drug called vedotin. Enfortumab attaches to a protein called nectin-4 on cancer cells in a targeted way and delivers vedotin to kill them. It is a type of antibody-drug conjugate. 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. Giving enfortumab vedotin and pembrolizumab may kill more tumor cells in patients with locally advanced or metastatic bladder cancer of variant histology.
NCT06539767
This project proposes to establish a prospective cohort of MIA based on a preexisting multicenter MIA database and to combine multidimensional methods such as high-resolution magnetic resonance, hemodynamics, ambulatory blood pressure, and imaging histology to study aneurysm instability.
NCT01463072
This phase II trial studies the side effects of nab-paclitaxel in treating older patients with breast cancer that has spread from where it started to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or to other places in the body (metastatic). Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as nab-paclitaxel, 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.
NCT02392455
This observational study will investigate the efficacy and tolerability of Vargatef (Nintedanib) plus docetaxel in daily routine second-line treatment in patients with locally advanced, metastatic or locally recurrent NSCLC. Treatment with Vargatef in eligible NSCLC patients, for whom the treating physician has decided to initiate treatment with Vargatef in second line according to the local label, will be observed for up to 24 months. Survial follow-up will be done until the end of the study.
NCT05237258
This research study is evaluating whether primary palliative care is an alternative strategy to specialty palliative care for improving quality of life, symptoms, mood, coping, and end of life outcomes in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
NCT07086456
This is a prospective, single-arm, phase II clinical study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of surufatinib and tislelizumab in combination with concurrent chemoradiotherapy, followed by consolidation therapy with tislelizumab plus surufatinib, in patients with unresectable, locally advanced stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
NCT05991037
There are many epidemiological data on the relationship between the number or nature of psychoactive medications used and the risk of falling in elderly, but very little on the relationship between the amount of psychoactive medication actually present in the blood and the severity of the fall. However, the inevitable drug-drug interactions related to polypharmacy and the pharmacokinetic modifications related to old age may lead plasma overdose situations which can potentiate the risk of falls but also aggravate these consequences. The investigators therefore propose a study with the objective of verifying whether the proportion of falls with serious traumatic consequences is more frequent in patients over 75 years old, presenting plasma overdoses of psychoactive drugs (plasma concentrations higher than the usual therapeutic concentrations) in regard to those between therapeutic ranges. The aim of this work is to verify if the falls present more severe characters when the psychoactive drug concentrations are beyond the usual therapeutic ranges.
NCT05182385
This study is designed to determine the feasibility, safety, tolerability and maximum tolerated dose of Venetoclax in combination with Blinatumomab and to evaluate the response in patients treated with the combination of Venetoclax and Blinatumomab in in patients with hematological relapse or molecular relapse.
NCT07085559

NCT04579679
This is a Phase 2, open-label, multi-centre study of surufatinib in patients with low to intermediate grade (Grade 1 or Grade 2), well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumours (NETs).
NCT05910580
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effectiveness of evidence-based Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment (SBIRT) among adult patients who screen positive to one or more risky alcohol or substance use behaviors while seeking care at a sexual and reproductive health (SRH) clinic. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does SBIRT impact patients' alcohol and substance use, SRH, mental health, physical health, quality of life, and wellbeing? * Does SBIRT effectiveness differ by ethnicity, socioeconomic status, age, gender, and urbanicity? * Does SBIRT effectiveness differ by delivery mode (in-person vs. telemedicine)? Participants will receive in-person and telemedicine SBIRT, or usual care. Participants will complete surveys at interviews at baseline, 30 days, and 3 months. Researchers will compare patients who received SBIRT to patients who receive usual care to see if patients who receive the SBIRT intervention have a greater reduction in negative outcomes as compared to those who receive usual care. In this setting, usual care consists of basic quantity and frequency questions asked inconsistently as part of the admission process and varying by provider, with no standardized approach to screening, treatment, follow-up, or referral.
