NCT07287098
This study will include two groups of patients: Cohort 1 and Cohort 2. Cohort 1: will help researchers learn how a medicine called imlunestrant (LY3484356) affects a specific type of breast cancer. Some patients will take both imlunestrant and another treatment to suppress their ovarian function. Some will take it without ovarian suppression. Researchers will compare the effects in breast cancer cells to those of another medicine called tamoxifen. All patients in this group will be premenopausal women who have a type of early breast cancer called estrogen receptor-positive, HER2-negative. The treatment in this group will last for up to 29 days. Cohort 2: will help researchers understand how imlunestrant affects the ovaries when it is taken without ovarian suppression. Researchers will compare the effects to those of another medicine called tamoxifen. This group will also include premenopausal women with the same type of breast cancer. The treatment in this group will last for up to 6 months.
NCT03691714
The purpose of this research study is to test the combination of the anti-cancer drugs durvalumab, the study drug, and cetuximab as a treatment for metastatic or recurrent head and neck cancer. Participants will receive both durvalumab and cetuximab.
NCT03692975
Clinically isolated syndrome (CIS) can evolve into multiple sclerosis. In CIS patients, episodic memory is frequently impaired. Memory disorders could be preceded by microstructural abnormalities without visible atrophy in hippocampus. A recent MRI imaging of diffusion called NODDI (Neurite Orientation Dispersion and Density Imaging) can measure specifically microstructural abnormalities and map the axons in the white matter (WM) and dendrites in the grey matter (GM). The aim of this study is to evaluate microstructural abnormalities in the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus in CIS patients compared to controls.
NCT07668128
Pregnancy involves significant physiological changes, such as hormone fluctuations, weight gain, and fetal growth, which can affect multiple organ systems. These changes often lead to symptoms like stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and may worsen existing conditions. SUI affects about one-third of pregnant women and can decrease quality of life. Pelvic floor muscle exercise (PFME) is a recommended treatment to manage urinary incontinence during pregnancy and postpartum. This study aims to compare the effectiveness of three interventions: routine health education, traditional PFME, and tactile feedback PFME, on reducing SUI symptoms, shortening the second stage of labor, and improving quality of life. Participants will be enrolled in their third trimester and randomly assigned to one of the three groups, with each intervention lasting 8 weeks. Outcome measures include urinary symptoms (via bladder diary, UDI-6, and IIQ-7), quality of life (via KHQ and WHOQOL-BREF), and labor outcomes (duration of the second stage).
NCT06663319
The purpose of this study is to determine the putative recommended phase 2 dose(s) (RP2Ds) and best way to take (optimal route of administration) JNJ-89402638 and to determine the safety of JNJ-89402638 at the RP2D(s) in participants with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) and metastatic gastric cancer (mGAC) and to determine the safety and tolerability of JNJ-89402638 in combination with bevacizumab or biosimilar with or without chemotherapy in participants with mCRC.
NCT07664813
Magnifying endoscopy provides high-resolution images that enhance the detection of early gastrointestinal lesions. However, conventional manual zoom techniques require frequent focal adjustments, which can be technically demanding and may compromise image stability, especially in complex anatomical settings. This study evaluates a novel one-click autofocus system based on image recognition and computer vision algorithms. The system automatically adjusts focal distance within seconds, eliminating the need for manual operation. This trial aims to compare the efficiency and image quality of one-click autofocus versus segmented manual focus in patients undergoing magnifying endoscopy for gastric diseases. A tandem randomized controlled trial will be conducted to assess procedure time, image clarity score, and operator satisfaction between the two techniques.
NCT07663266
Just-In-Time Adaptive Interventions (JITAIs) offer a framework for delivering personalized behavioral support using time-varying data to optimize the timing and type of intervention content. This project will develop the foundational components of a JITAI tailored to adults with chronic pain and either MS or SCI by drawing on symptom self-management content from existing programs (PainGuide, MyMSToolkit, and MySCIToolkit). Intervention content and delivery parameters will be refined through stakeholder engagement via structured interviews to ensure relevance, acceptability, and feasibility.
NCT07169851
The purpose of this study is to check how well LY35327021 works and how safe it is for controlling nausea and vomiting caused by chemotherapy. Participants who join this study will be in it until all parts are finished, which could take about 2 months.
NCT07189325
Multiple sclerosis (MS), the main central nervous system autoimmune disorder, is the first cause of non-traumatic disability in young adults and has thus significant individual consequences with elevated public health cost. It commonly starts during the third and fourth decades. Over the last twenty years, several disease-modifying therapies with variable benefit/risk profiles have been introduced leading to dramatic changes in the prognosis of MS. First, several moderately effective therapies , with good safety profile, have allowed to decrease the frequency of relapses along with a possible, albeit limited, effect on medium- and long-term disability. More recently highly effective therapies (HET), with immunosuppressive properties, have dramatically reduced clinical and MRI disease activity and significantly improved patient's prognosis. Anti-CD20 therapies (B-cells depleting therapies, given either intravenous or subcutaneous), one of the main HET, have demonstrated higher efficacy than platform therapies in several phase 3 randomized clinical trials and their use within the very first years of the disease seems to be associated with improved long-term outcomes. Taking all of this into account, the investigators hypothesize that RRMS patients who experience a de-escalation from anti-CD20 therapies to platform therapies after 40 years will not experience disease activity accrual and disability worsening.
NCT07628998
Colorectal cancer is a leading cause of mortality in Catalonia. Although early detection programs using the fecal immunochemical test (FIT) are effective in reducing both incidence and mortality, their success relies on high population participation. Currently, in the Vallès Occidental region, the participation rate stands at 42%, which is below the 65% minimum recommended by European health authorities. The objective of this randomized controlled trial is to evaluate whether sending a reminder text message (SMS) is an effective tool to increase participation in the screening program. The study will include 10,084 participants aged between 50 and 69 years. Half of the participants will receive a reminder SMS five weeks after their initial invitation, while the other half will follow the standard of care involving postal letters. Researchers anticipate that this strategy will not only increase the number of individuals undergoing screening but also shorten the response time and reduce the need for sending postal reminders
NCT05614739
The main purpose of this study is to learn more about the safety, side effects, and effectiveness of LOXO-435 by itself or when it is combined with other standard medicines that treat cancer. LOXO-435 may be used to treat cancer of the cells that line the urinary system and other solid tumor cancers that have a change in a particular gene (known as the FGFR3 gene). Participation could last up to 30 months (2.5 years) and possibly longer if the disease does not get worse.
NCT07656571
Postoperative pancreatic fistula is the most important complication after laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy for tumors of the body and tail of the pancreas. It can cause infection, bleeding, longer hospital stay, and even death. New imaging technology using indocyanine green (ICG) dye and near-infrared fluorescence may help surgeons see blood flow to the pancreatic stump, spleen, and nearby vessels during surgery and make safer decisions about where to cut and which structures to preserve. This study will compare two standard laparoscopic operations for pancreatic body and tail lesions: one with ICG fluorescence imaging at key steps of the procedure and one without ICG imaging. Adult patients who need elective laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy will be randomly assigned to one of the two groups. All other aspects of care before, during, and after surgery will be the same. The main goal is to find out whether using ICG fluorescence can reduce the rate of clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (Grade B or C) within 90 days after surgery. Secondary goals include comparing blood loss, operating time, need to convert to open surgery, spleen preservation, complications, hospital stay, and oncologic outcomes such as margin status and lymph node yield.
NCT07213609
Solid tumours are abnormal lumps of tissue that can occur in different parts of the body. The tumours involved in this study have specific genetic characteristics that can make them more aggressive and challenging to treat. The study will test whether GSK5460025 alone or in combination (potential combinations may be included in future amendments to the protocol) with other anti-cancer agents can decrease tumor size, is safe, well-tolerated, and how the drug is processed in the body over time.
NCT03155620
This phase II Pediatric MATCH screening and multi-sub-trial studies how well treatment that is directed by genetic testing works in pediatric patients with solid tumors, non-Hodgkin lymphomas, or histiocytic disorders that have progressed following at least one line of standard systemic therapy and/or for which no standard treatment exists that has been shown to prolong survival. Genetic tests look at the unique genetic material (genes) of patients' tumor cells. Patients with genetic changes or abnormalities (mutations) may benefit more from treatment which targets their tumor's particular genetic mutation, and may help doctors plan better treatment for patients with solid tumors or non-Hodgkin lymphomas.
NCT07653256
This study aims to investigate the effects of repeated transcranial magnetic stimulation combined with modified otago exercise program balance training intervention on motor cortex excitability, balance, and gait performance in patients with Parkinson's disease.
NCT06342440
This study aims to develop a highly sensitive, specific, and cost-effective blood assay for early detection of colorectal adenomas and cancer, using advanced machine learning and state-of-the-art biological analyses.
NCT07652775
This study aims to evaluate the effects of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) and aerobic exercise on cognitive function and mental health in older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and comorbid depression. Forty-five participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups: (1) rTMS alone, (2) rTMS combined with stationary cycling exercise, or (3) sham rTMS combined with stationary cycling exercise. Participants will receive 20 intervention sessions over a 5-week period (4 sessions per week). Outcomes, including cognitive function, depressive symptoms, sleep quality, life satisfaction, self-efficacy, and gait performance, will be assessed at baseline, immediately after completion of the 5-week intervention, and at a 1-month follow-up. The findings may contribute to the development of evidence-based, non-pharmacological interventions for improving cognitive and mental health outcomes in older adults with MCI and comorbid depression.
NCT06551519
This is a prospective, multicenter, observational, non-interventional study (NIS) in patients with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and routinely assessed serum neurofilament light (sNfL) values in Germany
NCT06949553
This is an observational study to learn more about vasomotor symptoms (VSM) burden and treatment patterns in menopausal women before and after participating in OASIS studies. In this study, data from women with VMS associated with menopause who took part in any of the three OASIS studies and were treated with elizanetant or a placebo, are collected and studied. In observational studies, only observations are made without participants receiving any advice or any changes to healthcare. VMS associated with menopause is a condition in which women who have been through the menopause have hot flashes caused by hormonal changes. Menopause is the stage when a woman stops having menstrual cycles or periods. No investigational products will be administered in this study. The participants in this study already received the standard of care (SOC) treatment for VMS before and after their participation in the study, as part of their regular care from their doctors. The SOC is the treatment that medical experts consider most appropriate currently. OASIS is a set of clinical studies. In this study data will be collected from participants who took part in OASIS 1, 2 or 3 . These three studies assessed the safety and effects of elizanetant compared to a placebo for VMS associated with the menopause. Based on the results of these three studies, Bayer filed a New Drug Application for elizanetant. To better understand the impact of elizanetant on VMS, more knowledge is needed about treatment patterns that were followed for VMS before and after the OASIS studies. The main purpose of this study is to gather real-world data on participants' prescription trends, whether they continued or stopped taking treatments, and healthcare resource utilization, before and after their participation. This study will include participants from OASIS 1,2 or 3 from the United States of America, who have agreed to be contacted to share information regarding their treatment. This study will have 2 parts: Part A - researchers will invite participants to complete an online survey about the treatments given in the year before starting the OASIS study. Part B - researchers will use tokens (an anonymized number to ensure participants' privacy) to learn about the treatments given to them 6 months after the completion of the OASIS study through their anonymized medical records. Researchers will collect the following information: Part A: * the prescription and over-the-counter medicines used by the participants for VMS in the year before the OASIS start * whether they continued or stopped taking them, and * the reason for doing so Part B: * the prescription medicines used by the participants for VMS in 6 months after the OASIS ended * whether they continued or stopped taking them For Part A the data will be collected from the participant survey between March 2025 and June 2025, and for Part B the data will be collected using participants' medical records between April 2025 to May 2025. In this study, only available data from routine care are collected. No visits or tests are required as part of this study.
