NCT05845814
This study is a substudy being conducted under one pembrolizumab umbrella master study KEYMAKER-U04. The substudy will consist of 2 parts. Part 1 will evaluate the efficacy and safety of coformulated favezelimab/pembrolizumab plus EV and coformulated vibostolimab/pembrolizumab plus EV relative to pembrolizumab plus EV. There will be no comparison of coformulated favezelimab/pembrolizumab plus EV versus coformulated vibostolimab/pembrolizumab plus EV. If ORR and/or DRR are substantially better on coformulated favezelimab/pembrolizumab plus EV and/or coformulated vibostolimab/pembrolizumab plus EV compared with pembrolizumab plus EV, after evaluation of the totality of data, the sponsor might consider Part 2 (expansion) to further characterize the efficacy and safety of the treatment arms under study.
NCT06933160
Physical activity and exercise help manage symptoms like fatigue in people living with multiple sclerosis (MS). Despite research supporting physical activity participation, people with MS are often insufficiently active to reach health benefits. Promotional efforts that are sustainable within the United States healthcare system are needed. This project is a pilot randomized controlled trial examining the feasibility of a consultative physical therapy intervention for increasing physical activity engagement.

NCT07161869
In the POELH-II trial (Clinicaltrials.gov ID NCT05678218) patients with presumed resectable perihilar (pCCA), intrahepatic (iCCA) or mid-common bile duct (CBD) cholangiocarcinoma had the outcomes of their preoperative endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) registered. This EUS procedure was done systematically, targeting lymph nodes (LNs) with the aim to identify LN metastases preoperatively. The goal of this follow-up observational cohort study (POELH-III) is to assess the yield of preoperative EUS, with an improved EUS approach. The EUS protocol as used in the POELH-II trial was improved based on preliminary results of the POELH-II trial. The main questions it aims to answer is: \- The number of patients precluded from surgical work-up due to positive regional or extraregional LNs identified by EUS guided tissue acquisition
NCT05335031
The purpose of this study is to collect real-world data and to gain insights about long-term usage of ozanimod (Zeposia ®), its effect on well-defined outcome parameters comprising participant-relevant outcomes, as well as quality of life, effectiveness, and incidence of adverse events.
NCT07119762
Our aims are to evaluate the impact of 24-week combined Pilates and dual-task exercises on physical fitness, balance, cognitive function, bone density in older adults. Participants ≥ 65 years of both genders will be randomly allocated to a control (n= 55) or intervention group (n= 55). Twice a week, sessions will take place in the FADEUP- UPORTO, with moderate intensity Pilates exercise and dual-task exercises. Trunk strength and stability, balance, cognitive function, and physical fitness will be accessed before and after the intervention. The Pilates method is easy to apply, low cost and widely accepted by older adults and it can integrate dual-task exercises easily. The researcher expected the intervention to improve balance, physical and cognitive skills of the participants, which may reduce the number of falls. The investigators seek to contribute with relevant information and enlighten the Dual Task-Pilates program as a safe strategy to reduce falls and maintain elderly's autonomy.
NCT04694534
The main goal of this study is to assess the effectiveness of a cognitive remediation program based on a "serious game" on the information processing speed evolution and the process of learning via episodic memory in multiple sclerosis patients.
NCT04879849
In this study, adults with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and squamous-cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN) will be treated with TAK-676 and pembrolizumab following radiotherapy. The main aims of this study are to check if people are improving after treatment with TAK-676, getting side effects from these combined treatments, and how much TAK-676 people with these cancers can receive without getting unacceptable side effects from it. Participants will receive radiotherapy, then at least 40 hours later will receive pembrolizumab followed by TAK-676 slowly through a vein (infusion). Participants will receive an infusion of pembrolizumab at the same dose every 3 weeks. Different small groups of participants will receive lower to higher doses of TAK-676 on specific days of a 21-day cycle. This study will be happening at sites in North America.
NCT04949646
The purpose of this research protocol is the evaluation of the improvement of the anorectal and urogenital urinary function, alongside the postoperative quality of life after the application of pIONM in patients submitted to TME for rectal cancer.
NCT04998812
This study will evaluate the potential placental transfer of ocrelizumab in pregnant women with clinically isolated syndrome (CIS) or multiple sclerosis (MS) \[in line with the locally approved indications\] whose last dose of ocrelizumab was administered any time from 6 months before the last menstrual period (LMP) through to the first trimester (up to gestational week 13) of pregnancy, and the corresponding pharmacodynamic effects (B cell levels) in the infant.
NCT05930379
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is one of the most common causes of neurological disability in young adults. At least 62% of people with MS have speech, vocal, or communication disorders. Among these, alterations in voice intensity and quality constitute a limitation in MS people's social life leading to experience difficulties in work, conversations, and communication especially in noisy environments or through the telephone. Though voice and speech impairments and speech impairments are widely prevalent in this population, only 2% of the people receive speech therapy. The Lee Silverman Voice Treatment (LSVT)-Loud is a well-documented, efficacious intensive speech intervention, for treating hypophonia in subjects with neurological conditions. Despite the effectiveness of LSVT-Loud treatment on the voice has been reported in MS, several factors prevent the agile use of this method in rehabilitation centers: motor disability, work commitments, and distance barriers may preclude repeated attendance of this intervention at a healthcare facility. Telerehabilitation represents a feasible solution to bypass these potential barriers related to attendance at the rehabilitation programs in the clinic. The increasing evidence sustains the role of telerehabilitation for the migration of care from the clinic to the patient's homes, overcoming several obstacles affecting service accessibility. Previous studies showed the validity and the non-inferiority of LSVT-Loud delivered via telerehabilitation in subjects with Parkinson's Disease, while no pieces of evidence are still available on the efficacy of voice treatment delivered by telerehabilitation in MS. It is plausible to assume that LSVT-Loud delivered by telerehabilitation would be feasible and provide a beneficial effect also for MS non-inferior compared to the same treatment delivered in the clinic.
NCT06136481
The aim of the study is to test the pilot effectiveness of Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) in decreasing psychological distress and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms and increasing well-being in earthquake survivors in Türkiye, using randomized controlled trial study design, which is considered the gold standard in research for evaluating the effectiveness of interventions. This pilot study will help to identify any further adaptations required prior to further effectiveness testing in a large cluster randomized controlled trial. Study hypothesis: Hypothesis 1: The participants who receive the CPT will have a significantly higher decrease in PTSD symptoms compared to the participants in the care-as-usual control group at the post-assessment. Hypothesis 2: The participants who receive the CPT will have a significantly higher decrease in depressive symptom severity compared to the participants in the care-as-usual control group at the post-assessment. Hypothesis 4: The participants who receive the CPT will have a significantly higher decrease in anxiety severity compared to the participants in the care-as-usual control group at the post-assessment. Hypothesis 5: The participants who receive the CPT will have a significantly higher increase in well-being compared to the participants in the care-as-usual control group at post-assessment.
NCT06309173
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system (CNS). Diagnosis is established by clinical assessment of persons with MS (PwMS), in combination with imaging and body fluid assessments. Treatment decisions in MS are mainly based on periodic monitoring of disease activity and progression through clinical and imaging assessments. The predictive and prognostic value of currently used assessments to individualize treatment decisions is still very limited. Emerging digital measures have the potential to provide granular health status measurements that would allow monitoring MS disease activity and progression continuously and remotely, in real-world settings, with minimal disruption of patients' life. Using the investigators' self developed dreaMS software program the investigators previously identified digital biomarkers (DB) that hold promise to provide detailed and accurate assessments of MS-related health status and disease progression to complement traditional clinical, imaging, or body fluid assessments. This international, observational study aims to evaluate and validate the generalizability of these DB across different languages and cultural settings to provide DB that are helpful for patient care, research, and regulatory decisions. Beyond this, the processes and data structures created for this study are intended to establish a collaborative research platform for subsequent studies, including pragmatic trials, promoting new long-term international academic collaborations.
NCT06929598
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if adding Shiatsu therapy to standard treatment can improve quality of life in children and adolescents with chronic pain that is not caused by inflammation. The main question it aims to answer is: Does Shiatsu therapy help improve the quality of life in children with long-lasting pain? All participants will continue their regular treatment and will also: * Receive a 30-minute Shiatsu session once a week for six weeks * Complete questionnaires about their quality of life and family impact before, during, and after the treatment period The study includes about 40 participants between the ages of 10 and 18, who are already being followed at the pediatric pain and rheumatology clinics at Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center.
NCT03985800

NCT06957145
The aim of this study is to investigate whether VISTA, a newly identified negative immune regulatory protein, differs in monocytes and T cells of patients diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and Clinically Isolated Syndrome (CIS) compared to the same cell types in healthy controls. Additionally, the potential clinical correlation of VISTA expression in the follow-up of MS and CIS patients will be examined. By elucidating the role of VISTA in the pathophysiology of MS, this study will contribute to the literature by exploring its potential as a biomarker and its relevance in the development of novel therapeutic strategies. Specifically, this study will compare VISTA protein secretion in MS patients at the time of their first attack with that of healthy controls. Furthermore, changes in VISTA protein secretion will be assessed in blood samples collected at 6- and 12-month follow-ups, and the correlations of these changes with clinical and laboratory findings will be investigated. Finally, this study aims to determine whether CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, monocytes, and T regulatory (Treg) subgroups in the first attack blood samples of MS patients exhibit similar functional properties in terms of VISTA protein secretion as their counterparts in healthy controls. To achieve this, monocytes and T cell subtypes will be stimulated, and their pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokine responses will be analyzed.
NCT07061379
A multicenter, national pharmacological observational study that has as its overall goal to implement a set of validated and agreed upon European-wide questionnaires (PROMs - patient's reported outcomes) to assess patients' perceptions of aspects of their lives based on the treatment they are receiving. Specifically, with the research we present here, we aim to obtain data on patients' health and condition, including quality of life, symptom status, physical function, mental health (anxiety and depression), sleep quality, and sexuality as useful indicators not only of patient well-being but also of the effectiveness of the treatment itself. The study involves the following: patients will be asked to complete online questionnaires at the following timepoints: before the start of treatment, after 4 and 8 treatment cycles, and at disease progression. Data will also be collected regarding the patient's oncological medical history, treatment performed, response to treatment at CT/PET reevaluations, any toxicities that arose during treatment.
