RATIONALE: Sodium thiosulfate may reduce or prevent hearing loss in young patients receiving cisplatin for cancer. It is not yet known whether sodium thiosulfate is more effective than no additional treatment in preventing hearing loss. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying sodium thiosulfate to see how well it works in preventing hearing loss in young patients receiving cisplatin for newly diagnosed germ cell tumor, hepatoblastoma, medulloblastoma, neuroblastoma, osteosarcoma, or other malignancy.
NCT01849874
The MILO Study (MEK Inhibitor in Low-grade Serous Ovarian Cancer) is a Phase 3 study during which patients with recurrent or persistent low-grade serous (LGS) carcinomas of the ovary, fallopian tube or primary peritoneum will receive either investigational study drug MEK162 or a chemotherapy chosen by the physician (liposomal doxorubicin, paclitaxel or topotecan). Patients will be followed to compare the effectiveness of the study drug to that of the selected chemotherapies. Patients may be eligible to crossover from physician's choice chemotherapy to MEK162 if they meet certain inclusion criteria including centrally confirmed disease progression. Approximately 360 patients from North America, Europe and Australia will be enrolled in this study.

NCT05534100
The aim of the project is to advance our understanding of how individuals with Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) experience symptoms in their every-day lives when they are in their home environment. To date, all PTSD assessments are retrospective; individuals with PTSD are asked to recount and report their symptoms over the past weeks or months. Such assessment procedures are negatively impacted by individuals' abilities to accurately recall information. Moreover, retrospective assessments provide little information about how symptoms are experienced in the moment and how these experiences then lead to other behaviors. The proposed project addresses these limitations by assessing PTSD symptoms and associated biological markers (e.g., sleep, heart rate, heart rate variability) in real-time by asking subjects to wear a smart device and complete brief surveys. Data will be collected from 50 individuals with PTSD and 20 healthy controls to help us better understand individuals' real-time experience with PTSD and lay the foundation to develop algorithms for possible in-the-moment interventions in the future.
NCT03727100
This study will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a new pain medication in development, clonidine micropellet. Participants will receive a single injection of either clonidine micropellet or sham injection for the treatment of low back and leg pain from sciatica.
NCT03634072
Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is the most common cyanotic congenital heart defect with the vast majority of survivors of corrective surgery left with some degree of right ventricular (RV) volume overload due to pulmonary regurgitation (PR) which cause RV enlargement with right heart failure, diminished biventricular function, ventricular arrhythmia, sudden death and decreased exercise performance over time. Pulmonary valve replacement (PVR) has been thought to ameliorate these complications but the timing of replacement has yet to be determined with equipoise at the moment in this decision making process. As nearly all studies in this regard are retrospective with much less data in pediatric TOF than adults, this pilot trial sets the stage to create a prospective randomized trial in the teenage years.
NCT03776318
Long-term follow-up study to evaluate the safety of clonidine micropellets up to 12 months post injection.
NCT02772081
This study compared the administration of porcine surfactant (poractant alfa, Curosurf®) through a less invasive method (LISA), using a thin catheter, CHF 6440 (LISACATH®), during non-invasive ventilation (CPAP, NIPPV, BiPAP) with an approved conventional surfactant administration during invasive ventilation followed by rapid extubation in terms of short term and mid-term safety and efficacy in spontaneously breathing preterm neonates who have clinical signs of respiratory distress syndrome (RDS).
NCT02542267
The objective of the ISR 14-04 study is to evaluate post-market safety and effectiveness of GORE® VIABAHN® Endoprosthesis for treatment of In-Stent Restenosis of the Superficial Femoral Artery.
NCT04740827
This study will assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of Atogepant 60 mg compared with placebo in participants with episodic migraine and who have previously failed 2 to 4 classes of oral prophylactic treatments.
NCT04936061
This is a prospective, double-blind, sham-controlled, randomized study to assess the safety, tolerability, and optimal dose of the COOLSTAT Transnasal Thermal Regulating Device for acute treatment of migraine. The hypothesis is that evaporative cooling induced by the CoolStat using only ambient, dry air will reduce the pain and other symptoms of migraine headaches during an acute migraine episode.
NCT00280917
This trial will test the hypothesis that the addition of CF101, a novel anti-inflammatory agent, will improve the clinical condition of patients with rheumatoid arthritis who still have active joint inflammation despite taking methotrexate for at least 6 months.
NCT03120949
The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of olokizumab (OKZ) 64 mg administered subcutaneously (SC) once every 2 weeks (q2w) or once every 4 weeks (q4w) in subjects with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who previously had completed 24 weeks of double-blind treatment in Study CREDO 1, 2 or 3 (core studies). The long-term efficacy, immunogenicity, the physical function and quality of life of subjects received long-term treatment with OKZ were assessed as well.
NCT04688671
A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Multicenter, Parallel-Group Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of ETX 018810 in Subjects with Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathic Pain.
NCT03690154
This research study is being done in people with advanced-stage solid tumor cancer. Advanced stage solid tumor cancer is a cancer that forms an abnormal mass of tissue that usually does not contain cysts or liquid areas. Different types of solid tumors are named for the type of cells that form them. Examples of solid tumors include lung cancer, breast cancer, prostate cancer, kidney cancer, colorectal cancer, melanoma and sarcoma. The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the safety of the investigational study drug, FN-1501, at different dose levels. FN-1501 has not previously been given to human subjects. It is intended for the treatment in this study of patients with advanced solid tumor cancers. This study will determine the effects, good and/or bad, on patients' cancer. The main objective of this study is to define the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of FN-1501. The MTD is the highest dose a person can take without having bad side effects, and the RP2D will be the dose of FN-1501 used in future studies.
NCT04277546
The purpose of this OLE Study D5272C00002 (Legacy #3151-202-008) is to permit participants who previously enrolled in the double-blind Study D5272C00001 (Legacy #3151-201-008) to receive brazikumab, allowing for long-term observation of safety and efficacy in these participants treated with brazikumab. There are no formal hypotheses to be tested. Safety and efficacy data obtained in this study will be included in regulatory product submissions as appropriate.
NCT03531008
The HEP2 study is designed to better understand the challenges of living with focal seizures that do not respond to medication, by following 205 people with medication-resistant focal epilepsy over two years to measure changes in health status, healthcare costs, quality of life, and biomarkers of epilepsy severity and treatment response.
NCT03582930
Surfactant replacement therapy can be life-saving for newborn infants born with symptomatic lung surfactant deficiency causing Respiratory Distress Syndrome (RDS). Currently, such therapy requires instillation of a liquid suspension into the trachea through an endotracheal tube. Endotracheal intubations have undesirable adverse effects on fragile premature infants. Instilling surfactant as a liquid suspension into the lung is associated with adverse events due to interruption of breathing in patients who already have respiratory insufficiency. This treatment protocol is expanded access that offers the opportunity for patients to receive aerosolized Infasurf prior to FDA acting on ONY Biotech's application for approval for commercial marketing of aerosolized Infasurf.
NCT05196165
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the incidence of hypoglycemia in adult and pediatric participants with glycogen storage disease type III (GSD III).
NCT04344626
Refractory epilepsy, meaning epilepsy that no longer responds to medication, is a common neurosurgical indication in children. In such cases, surgery is the treatment of choice. Complete resection of affected brain tissue is associated with highest probability of seizure freedom. However, epileptogenic brain tissue is visually identical to normal brain tissue, complicating complete resection. Modern investigative methods are of limited use. An important subjective assessment during surgery is that affected brain tissue feels stiffer, however there is presently no way to determine this without committing to resecting the affected area. It is hypothesized that intra-operative use of a tonometer (Diaton) will identify abnormal brain tissue stiffness in affected brain relative to normal brain. This will help identify stiffer brain regions without having to resect them. The objective is to determine if intra-operative use of a tonometer to measure brain tissue stiffness will offer additional precision in identifying epileptogenic lesions. In participants with refractory epilepsy, various locations on the cerebral cortex will be identified using standard pre-operative investigations like magnetic resonance imagin (MRI) and positron emission tomography (PET). These are areas of presumed normal and abnormal brain where the tonometer will be used during surgery to measure brain tissue stiffness. Brain tissue stiffness measurements will then be compared with results of routine pre-operative and intra-operative tests. Such comparisons will help determine if and to what extent intra-operative brain tissue stiffness measurements correlate with other tests and help identify epileptogenic brain tissue. 24 participants have already undergone intra-operative brain tonometry. Results in these participants are encouraging: abnormally high brain tissue stiffness measurements have consistently been identified and significantly associated with abnormal brain tissue. If the tonometer adequately identifies epileptogenic brain tissue through brain tissue stiffness measurements, it is possible that resection of identified tissue could lead to better post-operative outcomes, lowering seizure recurrences and neurological deficits.
