NCT00522535
Purpose of this study: The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Lombard Medical endovascular Aorfix™ AAA bifurcated stent graft in the treatment of abdominal aortic, aorto-iliac and common iliac aneurysms with anatomies including angled aorta, angled aneurysmal body, or both, between 0° and 90°. Study hypothesis: The primary efficacy hypothesis is the proportion of grafts remaining free from endoleak, migration, and fracture at 12 months. Efficacy: The 12 month, all cause mortality rate in the Aorfix™ group will be non-inferior to the 12 month, all cause mortality rate in the Open Control group. Safety: The rates of early serious adverse events between 0 and 30 days post-operative in the Aorfix™ groups will be non-inferior to the early serious adverse event rates between 0 and 30 days post-operative in the Open Control group.
NCT03301831
Technology-dependent children, those who live at home but rely on medical equipment such as mechanical ventilation or feeding tubes, require complex care for their chronic condition. Parents usually provide a majority of their care and are often overwhelmed by the caregiving demands resulting in deterioration of their own mental and physical health. The goal of this 2-arm (intervention vs. attention control) RCT is to test a cognitive-behavioral Resourcefulness Training intervention that includes teaching social (help-seeking) and personal (self-help) resourcefulness skills; ongoing access to video vignettes of caregivers of technology-dependent children describing resourcefulness skill application in daily life; 4 weeks of skills' reinforcement using daily journal writing; weekly phone calls for the first 4 weeks; and booster sessions at 2 and 4 months post enrollment. The intervention is proposed to improve these caregivers' mental and physical health outcomes and family functioning outcomes while they continue to provide vital care for these vulnerable children.
NCT04107623
The investigators also aim to use our previously described quantifying method (q-ICG), to evaluate changes in gastric perfusion, during resection of cancer in the gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) and if a change in the operative technique influences microvascular flow in the gastroesophageal (GE) anastomosis.
NCT05087706
To explore the feasibility, efficacy and safety of determining the treatment regimen based on genomic profiling in patients with locally advanced and advanced salivary gland cancer.
NCT04941040
Hemodynamic control during craniotomies can be a bit hectic specially during periods of intense noxious stimulation. For long anesthesiologists used high doses of opioids such as fentanyl and remifentanyl to provide analgesia with a good hemodynamic control during intraoperative period in patients undergoing craniotomies. However, the use of opioids was not devoid of side effects. Exploring other anesthetic plans using multiple opioid free anesthetic adjuvants that have analgesic effects given together in small doses appear to be appealing plan. This idea is the basis of our proposed study in which we compare the hemodynamic effects of using opioid free anesthesia versus opioid anesthesia in cranial surgeries.
NCT05069376
This is a prospective randomized clinical trial, evaluating the effect of the intra-ureteral placement of the stent's distal end versus the conventional stent placement on the postoperative LUTS and pain.

A cerebrospinal fluid sample will also be collected if a Cerebrospinal Fluid Analysis Lumbar puncture is performed
NCT05078424
The proposed study is a randomized controlled trial (RCT) that aims to examine the effectiveness of cognitive behavioural therapy in reducing depressive and anxiety symptoms for youths in Hong Kong. It is to be carried out with 120 youths aged 12 - 24 recruited from a series of community-based LevelMind@JC hubs, funded by the Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust. It is designed to improve the youths' abilities/ skills in handling moods to have better emotional management. A written informed consent will be signed by participants. Researchers will perform cognitive behavioural therapy on youths who agree to join the study.
NCT03401307
OBJECTIVE To investigate neurodegeneration and demyelination in the central and peripheral nervous system in multiple sclerosis linked to disease progression and mechanisms that can explain different responses to Fampridine treatment in MS patients with walking disability. METHOD The study is a prospective cohort follow-up study with 98 participants with MS and walking disability. Participants are identified as responders or non-responders to Fampridine treatment prior to the study. Participants will undergo MRI of the cerebrum with lesion load quantification, neurophysiological tests comprised of motor evoked potentials and electroneurographic examination, blood samples examining KIR4.1 antibodies, brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), myelin protein zero (MPZ), peripheral myelin protein 22 (PMP22), p75-nerve growth factor receptor (p75NGFR) and anti-myelin associated glycoprotein (anti-MAG). The presence of SORCS-3 gene mutation will also be examined, as will cerebrospinal fluid levels of myelin basic protein, neurofilament heavy and light chains. Functional test of Timed 25-foot walk test (T25FW) will identify response to Fampridine treatment. A functional test battery will further detail function of upper extremities and cognition. CONCLUSION This study will add to the understanding of neurodegeneration and demyelination in CNS and PNS in patients with MS having walking disability. This will impact clinical decision-making by improving organization of immunomodulatory treatment, identifying biomarkers thus facilitating earlier treatment and improving patient control, information and education.
NCT02746744
A randomized phase 3 study comparing Rituximab with Dimethyl Fumarate in early Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis and Clinically Isolated Syndrome.
NCT02508636
This phase II trial studies the safety of giving enzalutamide with leuprolide acetate before and after radiation therapy and to see how well it works in treating patients with prostate cancer that is at high risk of returning. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Most types of prostate cancer also need testosterone to grow and spread. After radiation therapy, patients often receive treatments to reduce testosterone to prevent the cancer from returning. Leuprolide acetate works by reducing the amount of testosterone that the body makes. Enzalutamide is a stronger treatment that may block testosterone from reaching cancer cells. Adding enzalutamide to treatment with leuprolide acetate after radiation therapy may help prevent high-risk prostate cancer from returning and improve patient survival.
NCT00444821
The purpose of this study is to compare endovascular repair using any FDA approved Medtronic AAA Stent Graft System versus surveillance in subjects with smaller abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA)(4-5CM), with respect to AAA rupture and AAA related deaths.
NCT05012527
The aim of the study is retrospectively evaluating all features of endoscopic and pathological diagnoses of cases who underwent upper and lower gastrointestinal endoscopy.
NCT03560739
The primary purpose of this study is to demonstrate pharmacokinetic bioequivalence of ofatumumab injected by Pre-filled Syringe (PFS) versus Auto-Injector (AI) devices and thereby establish a bridge between the ongoing Phase 3 program and the to-be-marketed drug-device combinations

NCT04228003
The study is a single site, prospective, open label, observational, single arm trial in 30 patients with type 2 diabetes with GI complaints using 1 or more oral or injectable anti-hyperglycemic agents to investigate if altering the microbiome though Pendulum T2D dietary supplementation can further enhance the efficacy of the current treatment while reducing the GI associated symptoms in patients with Type 2 diabetes.
NCT00314353
Bevacizumab is an angiogenesis inhibitor which means it works to stop blood vessel formation in tumors. Without new blood vessels, the growth of a tumor is slowed. Chemotherapy works to kill cancer cells directly. This study is being done to see how colorectal cancer responds to treatment with the combination of bevacizumab and chemotherapy.
NCT05068180
Postoperative delirium（POD）is a common complication that can directly affect important clinical outcomes, and exert an enormous burden on patients, their families, hospitals, and public resources. In order to evaluate whether an intraoperative administration of low-dose neuroleptanalgesia reduces postoperative delirium, droperidol 1.25 mg and fentanyl 0.025 mg or normal saline is used by intravenous injection 30 minutes before the end of the operation, in elderly patients with non-cardiac major surgery under general anesthesia. The efficiency and safety of neuroleptanalgesia on the incidence of POD would be evaluated in elderly patients.
NCT03521557
In order to provide information that will improve therapy, the goals of this project are to determine if persons with MS with complaints of dizziness and at risk for falls can improve their balance and vision stability as a result of a bout of specific treatment. This project seeks to do this by conducting an experiment where people with MS are randomly assigned to a group that practices activities known to help improve inner ear function or a group that practices activities known to improve endurance and strength but that should not change inner ear function. Such a comparison will allow us to gain understanding of how the inner ear system is affected in MS and how it responds to treatment.
NCT01589263
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and its related symptoms are a common condition that affects nearly half of men over age 50 and 90% of men over 80. Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) caused by BPH can be very troublesome, affect an individual's quality of life significantly, and are costly. his Phase 2 clinical research trial is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study to compare the treatment effects of onaBoNT-A 200 U versus 0.4 mg per day of oral tamsulosin in male Veterans diagnosed with moderate to severe LUTS \[American Urologic Association Symptom Score (AUASS) equal to or greater than 8\] associated with BPH. A total of 74 volunteers will be recruited to participate in this clinical trial. Volunteers will include only males who are greater than 50 years of age and diagnosed with LUTS associated with BPH. They are Veterans who visit the Michael E. DeBakey Veterans Affairs Medical Center - Houston (MEDVAMC). There are no eligibility restrictions as to race or ethnicity.
