NCT04783935
The primary purpose of this study was to evaluate the long-term effectiveness of Mavenclad® tablets, in terms of disease activity and safety, in participants with highly-active relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS) previously participating in the MAGNIFY MS trial MS700568\_0022 (NCT03364036).
NCT03075748
The outcomes from prior clinical evaluation of the study device, including successfully treating 99% (84/85) of the intended target vessels and 96% (27/28) limb patency observed at one year, demonstrate the potential benefits of the device. When contrasted with open repair's significant complication rates and branch fenestrated device's significant anatomic and logistic limitations, the potential risk of the proposed novel graft does not outweigh the potential benefit of widened anatomic availability and improved patency rates. Given the potential benefits, the investigators feel that it is justified to expose the target patient population to the potential risk. The non-clinical testing performed by Medtronic and the clinical results reported by Sanford Health show adequate safety of the device to support an early feasibility study. The investigators would like to perform an early feasibility study under a defined and controlled protocol to collect prospective preliminary safety and device functionality data. The investigators believe an early feasibility study is most appropriate for this novel approach. The limited sample size allows adequate patient data to be collected under a controlled protocol without exposing a large patient population to the risk associated with a novel device design.
NCT01285479
The purpose of the Multi-National Gilenya Pregnancy Exposure Registry in Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is to continuously monitor, evaluate, and assess for major and minor teratogenic effects in the offspring of women exposed to fingolimod before (up to 8 weeks before last menstrual period (LMP)) and during pregnancy in routine clinical practice. The overall aim is to collect and evaluate data on maternal, fetal, and infant outcomes and compare it with reference populations.
NCT03127007

The phase Ib part of the study aims to determine the safety and tolerance of administration at a fixed dosing of 1200 mg / 3 weeks, concomitantly to the standard preoperative radio-chemotherapy. The phase II part of the study aims to explore efficacy of atezolizumab in combination with the standard preoperative chemo/radiotherapy in stage II and III rectal cancers.
NCT06785545
It has been shown in the literature that urinary CA19-9 levels are associated with the degree of hydronephrosis and the anteroposterior diameter of the renal pelvis. Additionally, this marker has been reported as a potential indicator of kidney damage related to obstructive uropathies. A study conducted in our clinic, which has yet to be published, investigated CA19-9 levels in children with hydronephrosis of different etiologies. It found a statistically significant difference in CA19-9 levels between children with neurogenic and non-neurogenic lower urinary tract (LUT) dysfunction (Evaluation of Spot Urine Carbohydrate Antigen 19-9, Sodium, Potassium, and Creatinine Levels as Biomarkers for Differential Diagnosis of Hydronephrosis and Detection of Kidney Damage in Children Aged 0-16: A Prospective Study, Kütükoğlu et al.). Based on this, the hypothesis was formulated that urinary CA19-9 might be a potential biomarker for indicating neurological deficits in children presenting with LUT symptoms. Therefore, this study aimed to compare CA19-9 levels in a larger group of children with neurogenic and non-neurogenic LUT dysfunction.

NCT03994653
Approximately 7,400 new cases of ovarian cancer are diagnosed each year in the United Kingdom (UK), and with over 4,000 women dying from the disease each year it is a particularly lethal form of cancer. The symptoms for ovarian cancer are not well known and vague, and most women are diagnosed at a late stage when the cancer has already spread around the abdominal cavity with poor prognosis. Novel methods are needed to improve earlier detection and thereby improve survival from this disease. The Cancer Loyalty Card Study (CLOCS) proposes to use loyalty card data from two participating high street retailers to investigate purchase behaviour as an opportunity for cancer symptom surveillance. The investigators aim to conduct a case-control study of ovarian cancer patients matched with women without ovarian cancer and to explore public preferences for how to communicate potential outcomes of the commercial and health data linkages back to individuals. Eligible participants will be women in the UK who own at least one loyalty card with the participating high street retailers. Of these women, those who have been diagnosed with ovarian cancer are eligible to participate in the study as cases, while women who have not been diagnosed with ovarian cancer are eligible to participate as controls. Upon choosing to participate, all participants will be asked to complete a short questionnaire about well-established ovarian cancer risk factors and common symptoms either in the clinic (cases) or online/from a packet in the mail(controls). This information will be used in risk assessment for ovarian cancer of participants, which will be used at the analysis stage.
NCT03709134
The primary aim of the study is to identify genomic markers (circulating tumor cells (CTCs), circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), transcriptomic markers) as biomarkers of response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) among patients with invasive breast cancer.
NCT06504732
The safety, tolerability, and determination of the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of the combination therapy were first evaluated for IAH0968 in combination with or without the CAPEOX regimen in unsystematically treated subjects with HER2-expressing advanced/metastatic colorectal or gastric cancers (including adenocarcinomas of the gastro-esophageal junction) or HER2-hypo-expressing advanced/metastatic solid tumors. The efficacy of IAH0968 in combination with the CAPEOX regimen versus trastuzumab in combination with the CAPEOX regimen in subjects with HER2-positive advanced/metastatic gastric cancer, including gastro-esophageal junction adenocarcinoma, was then assessed by progression-free survival (PFS) according to the Research and Evaluation Criteria for the Evaluation of Efficacy in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1.
NCT06773234
This Cross-Sectional Study aims to evaluate the dental educational environment in Upper Egypt using the Dundee Ready Education Environment Measure (DREEM) Questionnaire.
NCT02966483
Laparoscopic surgery for rectal cancer has been successfully proven to be a non-inferior alternative regarding resection quality, and oncological outcomes of patients as compared to open surgery in mangy clinical trails. Moreover, laparoscopic surgery is advantageous over open surgery with regard to operative invasiveness, patient's recovery, and wound related complications. Thus, laparoscopic surgery has gained great popularity over the past decades. However, specifically for mid and low rectal cancer, laparoscopic surgery is technically demanding, which sometimes leads to high morbidity and unsatisfactory resection quality, especially in challenging cases such as bulky mesorectum, enlarged prostate, irradiated pelvis, etc. Under this circumstance, transanal total mesorectal excision (TaTME) , the so called "down-to-up" alternative, has emerged as a promising solution to these problems in recent years and more and more small studies have proven the feasibility and advantages of this technique, making it become a hot topic among both literature and conferences. However, TaTME is still at early birth, higher-level evidences, either multicentric, or comparative study with conventional surgery is strikingly lacking. Thus the investigators conduct this multicentre randomised clinical trial, comparing transanal TME versus laparoscopic TME for mid and low rectal cancer, aiming to prove the hypothesis that TaTME may achieve better resection quality and result in non-inferior oncological outcome, as well as short term operative morbidity and mortality.

NCT06781216
Cancer is still the second leading cause of death worldwide with approximately 9.6 million deaths per year. Gynecological cancers, which are the most common type of cancer among women, significantly affect the quality of life by disrupting the functions of the reproductive system of women. Endometrial cancer has an important place due to its prevalence in our country and worldwide. Although stress factors related to endometrial cancer may continue after the completion of treatment, this situation has the potential to negatively affect the psychological and physiological health of women. This research is a randomized controlled trial aiming to evaluate the effect of motivational interviewing applied to women who completed endometrial cancer treatment and were followed up in the outpatient clinic on post-traumatic stress symptoms and post-traumatic growth. Simple randomization method will be used in the study. The sample size to be included in the study was determined as 66 participants in total, 33 in the intervention group and 33 in the control group. In the study, the effectiveness of motivational interviewing technique application in women with endometrial cancer will be evaluated based on evidence using Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder Checklist for DSM-5, Post-Traumatic Growth Scale and Ways of Coping Scale. Research data will be collected from women who meet the inclusion criteria at Akdeniz University Hospital Gynecology and Obstetrics Clinic between January 2 and August 31, 2025. The motivational interviews planned to be implemented as an intervention method in the research aim to reduce post-traumatic stress symptoms, develop coping strategies and increase the level of post-traumatic growth in women with endometrial cancer.
NCT02831049
Background: Sights, sounds, and smells can be associated with alcohol and tempt people to drink. The connection between encountering cues and wanting to drink might be reduced by behavioral techniques, like giving the cues at certain times, in certain circumstances. Objective: To see if visual imagery and behavioral techniques can reduce alcohol craving and drinking. Eligibility: Healthy people ages 21 to 65 years old who are mildly concerned about their drinking and have had these habits in the past 3 months: * Women: More than three (3) drinks any single day or more than seven (7) drinks per week * Men: More than four (4) drinks any single day or more than 14 drinks per week Design: * Participants will be screened with medical history, physical exam, blood tests, alcohol breath tests, hepatitis tests, and alcohol and drug use questionnaires. * Participants will get a smartphone to carry throughout the study. They will use it to report on their drinking, moods, and activities daily. The phone's global positioning system (GPS) will record their locations throughout each day. * There will be six (6) study visits approximately over four (4) weeks. Visits will last up to four (4) hours, but the final visit may last up to seven (7) hours. Visits include the following: * Not drinking alcohol or using illicit or over-the-counter drugs at least 24 hours before each visit * Providing urine and breath samples. * Exposure to various cues: Participants' reactions will be monitored by measuring heart rate, blood pressure, and skin temperature. * Drinking alcohol or soft drinks: For visits with alcohol, transportation to and from the visit will be provided. * About a month after the last visit, participants will be called to ask about their drinking and cravings.
NCT02714439
The purpose of this study is to evaluate a different type of medical equipment called "High-Resolution Microendoscope" (HRME) for the diagnosis of cervical pre-cancerous lesions and cervical cancer. The investigators want to compare patients' clinical findings using the current equipment used in clinic with the clinical findings using new equipment we are testing on this research project. If the new equipment is proven to give comparable findings with current equipment being used, doctors might be able to offer a diagnosis and treat cervical lesions in one visit. It might not be necessary to wait for cervical biopsies to come back before women would receive the indicated treatment. Study subjects are being asked to participate because they have been diagnosed with an abnormal Papanicolaou (Pap) PAP smear, positive human papillomavirus (HPV) test or history of cervical dysplasia and need to have a colposcopic examination to determine the reason for abnormal results and receive treatment.
NCT06776835
Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignancies of the gastrointestinal system, especially in East Asia. A host of patients are diagnosed with GC at the late stage, leading to poor patient prognosis. Therefore, there is a strong demand to develop new biomarkers to detect this tumor early. Small non-coding RNA species include microRNA (miRNA), PIWI-interacting RNA (piRNA), small interfering RNA (siRNA), tRNA-derived small RNA (tsRNA), etc. It has been demonstrated that small non-coding RNAs are involved in gastric cancer cell proliferation, metastasis, progression and survival. Hence, it is considered as an auxiliary diagnostic biomarker for gastric cancer.
NCT06777342
This is a multicenter, randomized, controlled clinical trial aimed to determine whether preoperative sleep interventions could reduce the incidence of adverse outcomes, such as postoperative delirium, in adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery. The study will include adult patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting and/or valve surgery with concomitant sleep disorders, as assessed by the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. All participants will be randomly assigned to placebo, placebo + cognitive behavioral therapy, and melatonin + cognitive behavioral therapy in a 1:1:1 ratio. The primary outcome is the incidence of postoperative delirium within 7 days after surgery or before discharge, and secondary outcomes include postoperative cognitive function, sleep quality, and severity and duration of delirium. The results of this study will provide suggestions for the prevention of delirium after cardiac surgery.
NCT04179773
Cirrhosis and cancers of the upper digestive tract, colorectal and ENT share common risk factors. Liver cirrhosis can change the elimination of cancer drugs. Precise data on management and outcome of patients with liver cirrhosis undergoing chemotherapy are lacking. Most patients have been excluded from clinical trials evaluating conventional therapies. The study of tolerance, side effects, and outcome in patients with cirrhosis could help improve chemotherapy management for better tolerance and efficacy. The main objective is to estimate the frequency of liver cirrhosis among patients evaluated in CPR for ENT, upper digestive or colorectal cancer. Secondary objective includes the evaluation ofthe impact of cirrhosis on the management of chemotherapy by comparing cirrhotic patients' outcomes with a control group of matched non-cirrhotic patients.
