NCT02895360
Single-agent, open-label, multi-center sequential dose escalation and expansion study of BAL101553, administered as an intravenous (IV) infusion over 48 hours to adults with advanced or recurrent solid tumors or recurrent glioblastoma.
NCT03898570
The purpose of this study is to test if a patient can be directly connected to a quality assurance (QA) database, traditionally known as a registry. Patient-reported outcomes (PRO) data will be entered into the database directly from a patient's mobile phone from their index procedure for 12 months. The investigators hope this study to be a "proof of concept" for such a distributed registry and evaluate 1) consistency of data acquisition, 2) engagement of patients, 3) overall value of patient-reported outcomes to enhance long term follow up.
NCT04100850
Objective: To compare the effectiveness between aquatic exercises (water aerobics versus Watsu) versus control groups, for improving the outcomes of depression, anxiety, stress, sleep quality, functionality, cognition and quality of life in patients with depression.
NCT05482724
Super Skills for Life (SSL) is a transdiagnostic cognitive-behavioral protocol developed for children aged 6 to 12 with anxiety and comorbid problems (e.g., depression, low self-esteem, and lack of social skills). SSL consists of eight sessions targeting common risk factors for internalizing disorders such as cognitive distortions, avoidance, emotional management, low self-esteem, social skills deficits and coping strategies. The aim of the study is to investigate the short- and long-term effects of SSL on internalizing and externalizing symptoms in Spanish children attending the Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services.
NCT05589090
The study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the transdiagnostic program Super Skills for Life (SSL). This protocol targets children aged 8 to 12 with emotional problems (anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and lack of social skills). SSL consists of eight sessions targeting common risk factors for internalizing disorders such as cognitive distortions, avoidance, emotional management, low self-esteem, social skills deficits, and coping strategies. The present research focuses on assessing the effectiveness of SSL applied online (through a virtual platform).
NCT04574466
The current refugee crisis across the Middle East and Europe has large effects on individual refugees' psychological well-being, as well as on the healthcare systems of countries hosting refugees. For example, in Switzerland patients sometimes have to wait up to 12 months for the specific psychological treatment due to a lack of specialists. To address this problem the WHO has developed Problem Management Plus (PM+), a brief (five sessions), low-intensity psychological intervention, delivered by paraprofessionals, that addresses common mental disorders in people in communities affected by adversity. The effectiveness and implementation of PM+ has never been examined in Switzerland before, this is the aim of the current randomized controlled trial.
NCT01606137
Subjects who had previously received GW-1000-02 in a GW study who opted to continue using it in the long-term were monitored for ongoing tolerability and evidence of clinical benefit.
NCT03423121
This study aims to identify the safety and tolerability of bile acid supplementation in patients with progressive Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Participants will also be assessed for an impact of the bile acid on their immune system and gut microbiome. Half of the participants will receive the bile acid tauroursodeoxycholic acid (TUDCA) and half will receive placebo. The investigators believe participants who take TUDCA will have normalization of blood bile acid levels, a normalization of abnormal immune response and a normalization of the gut microbiome.
NCT05837988
Through a cross-sectional questionnaire survey, a general information questionnaire and Dialysis Frequency, Severity, and Symptom Burden Index were used to investigate the frequency, severity, and degree of symptom distress in MHD patients, and to analyze the differences in symptom distress status between long and short dialysis age MHD patients. Using the R 4.2.2 software qgraph package, construct symptom networks for MHD patients of long and short dialysis age through network analysis. Analyze network centrality indicators, including intensity, closeness centrality, and mediation centrality, to identify core symptoms and compare if there are any differences between the two groups, aiming to lay the foundation for precise and efficient phased symptom management.
NCT02376699
This study is being done to find out if SEA-CD40 is safe and effective when given alone, in combination with pembrolizumab, and in combination with pembrolizumab, gemcitabine, and nab-paclitaxel. The study will test increasing doses of SEA-CD40 given at least every 3 weeks to small groups of patients. The goal is to find the highest dose of SEA-CD40 that can be given to patients that does not cause unacceptable side effects. Different dose regimens will be evaluated. Different methods of administration may be evaluated. The pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamic effects, biomarkers of response, and antitumor activity of SEA-CD40 will also be evaluated.
NCT00272987
This study was originally designed as a Phase III randomized, double blind, placebo controlled study to assess the safety and tolerability, and efficacy of paclitaxel plus trastuzumab plus lapatinib compared with paclitaxel plus trastuzumab plus placebo in women with ErbB2 overexpressing metastatic breast cancer. The planned study was a two stage design with an initial open-label safety stage to be conducted in approximately 65 subjects followed by a randomized phase conducted in a further 700 subjects. The open-label part of the study sequentially enrolled three cohorts with patients receiving a different dose combination of paclitaxel, trastuzumab and lapatinib. Following poor recruitment rate in the open label stage, the randomized stage of the study was terminated, thus no subjects were enrolled into the randomization stage.
NCT05834855
Rationale: Ocrelizumab is widely and effectively used to treat relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS). Phase II studies and data from large patient cohorts indicate that rituximab, another anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody, is probably equally effective and safe as ocrelizumab in the treatment of RMS. An advantage of rituximab is a considerably lower price. Therefore we will start a study aimed at demonstrating non-inferiority of rituximab compared to ocrelizumab in RMS. If non-inferiority of rituximab can be shown, important reductions in the cost of treatment of RMS will be possible, without loss of efficacy. Objective: Evaluating the efficacy and safety of ritixumab compared to ocrelizumab in the treatmens of RMS. Study design: Randomized double blind multi-centre non-inferiority study of rituximab compared to ocrelizumab in 200 patients with RMS. The trial duration will be 30 months Study population: The study population consists of 200 adult RMS patiens with an indication to start anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody treatment. Intervention: Patients will be randomized 1:1 into the standard group (ocrelizumab treatment) or the experimental group (rituximab treatment). Main study parameters: To conclude non-inferiority of rituximab there will be one primary endpoint: the proportion of patients free of inflammatory disease activity (defined as: new or enlarged T2 lesions) between week 24 (M6) and week 96 (M24) of treatment in each arm. Secondary trial endpoints are presence and number of clinical relapses,T2 and contrast enhancing lesion volumes, brain volume and brain volume changes, disease progression (defined as clinically relevant change on any of the measures: EDSS, T25FW, 9HPT, SDMT), biochemical parameters such as lipidomics and neurofilament light (NfL), immunological parameters, safety as measured by the number of (serious) adverse events ((S)AE), quality of life (EQ-5D-L) and treatment satisfaction (TSQM) and patient reported measures of MS impact (MSIS-29) and well-being (questionnaire on physical complaints) Nature and extent of the burden and risk: Patients included in this study will be treated and monitored by MRI, clinical tests and laboratory tests according to existing protocols and will not be exposed to extra or unknown risks. They will have extra annual questionnaires and larger blood samples at some time points. There is extensive experience with both rituximab and ocrelizumab as efficacious and safe treatments of RMS.
NCT01838174
We hypothesize that the novel melanocortin-mediated anti-inflammatory effects of ACTH will reduce axonal loss following ON by limiting inflammatory optic nerve injury. We will compare the effect of ACTH and intravenous methylprednisolone therapy on axonal injury following ON using OCT, a sensitive, reproducible and noninvasive tool to measure RNFL thickness. The primary outcome will be the average RNFL thickness at 6 months. Additional pre-specified statistical analyses will compare the difference in the mean RNFL thickness at 6 months in the affected eye between the IV methylprednisolone- and Acthar-treated groups, and the mean 6-month affected eye RNFL thicknesses adjusted for the baseline unaffected eye RNFL. The secondary outcome measure will examine the frequency of optic nerves with RNFL swelling between the IV methylprednisolone- and Acthar-treated groups at 1 and 3 months. A predefined exploratory outcome will compare the ganglion cell plus inner plexiform layer (GC+IPL) thickness at 6 months between treatment groups. Additional tertiary outcome will be the assessment of changes in fatigue, mood, visual function depression, and quality of life in patients with AON. Assessment will be completed by administration of the following questionnaires: Modified Fatigue Impact Scale, Multiple Sclerosis Quality of Life 54 Instrument, 25-item Visual Function Questionnaire with 10-item supplement, Beck's Depression Inventory. These questionnaires have been validated for the MS (AON) population. Descriptive and correlative analysis will be done at each visit time point to assess for QOL for this study population.
NCT04225312
Rationale: Natalizumab is an effective drug in the treatment for relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) and is approved by de FDA/EMA in a treatment regimen of 4-weekly 300mg natalizumab infusions. Natalizumab trough concentrations after a 4-weekly interval are high in the large majority of patients which implies a relative overdose in most patients. A recent randomized controlled trial (RCT) suggests natalizumab maintains a high level of effi-cacy in stable patients with RRMS switching to a 6 week interval. Our study group demon-strated that efficacy of natalizumab is maintained when the infusion interval is extended based on natalizumab trough concentrations (personalized extended interval dosing). This leads to fewer hospital visits, a decrease of healthcare costs and decrease of risk of compli-cations of natalizumab treatment. Objective: Our objective is to test feasibility and validate safety of personalized extended interval dosing of natalizumab starting from 6 weeks in a large real-life cohort across the Netherlands. Study design: Prospective national phase IV natalizumab cohort study. Study population: All patients, aged 18 years or older, who are currently treated with natalizumab in the Netherlands for RRMS, with a minimum of 6 consecutive infusions. Intervention: All patients currently included in the NEXT-MS trial will receive an adjusted personalized extended interval dosing treatment regimen of natalizumab based on natalizumab concentrations starting from an infusion interval of 6 weeks. Main study parameters/endpoints: Our main study endpoint is the safety (defined by radiological disease activity) of personalized natalizumab dosing in a large real-life cohort across the Netherlands. Data will be collected regarding disease activity and disability progression. A cost analysis will be performed to show the extent of cost reduction. Patients will be annually followed to assess the influence of personalized dosing on JC virus conversion, JC virus index, incidence of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy, treatment satisfaction and quality of life. The influence of personalized dosing on pharmacokinetics will be monitored.

NCT04067388
There are currently no widely accepted methods which provide real time in vivo, in situ tissue diagnostics within the operating theatre environment. This project proposes that the oncological nature of in vivo tissue may be accurately identified using mass spectrometric analysis of tissue specific ions released during thermal degradation of tissue as occurs during electrosurgery. Subsequently, the protocol describes a technique for a prospective study to determine whether Rapid Evaporative Ionisation Mass Spectrometry (REIMS) can be used to accurately identify the nature of human tissue both ex vivo and in vivo.
