NCT03719690
An international, multicenter, open-label, 2 cohort, non-comparative, pivotal study evaluating the efficacy of tipifarnib in HRAS mutant HNSCC (AIM-HN). The first cohort will assess the objective response rate (ORR) of tipifarnib in subjects with HNSCC with HRAS mutations. The second study cohort, SEQ-HN, is an observational sub-study including HNSCC patients in whom HRAS mutations were not identified (wild type HRAS HNSCC) and who consent to provide first line outcome data and additional follow up.
NCT06189781
Pain management in pediatric patients presents a difficult challenge. Unlike adults, pediatric patients often cannot communicate their pain management needs clearly. This is especially true in patients with cerebral palsy (CP), who often have concomitant developmental delay, intellectual disability and verbal limitations. Current literature indicates pain as a common experience for children with CP but has been understudied in this population. Moreover, inadequate post-operative pain control can result in negative physiologic and psychological complications and lead to poor surgical outcomes. Currently, perioperative pain management following orthopaedic procedures in pediatric patients follows traditional protocols that rely on the administration of opioid medications despite their known adverse side effects including nausea, vomiting, itching, constipation, urinary retention, confusion, and respiratory depression. Epidural anesthesia is a key modality in traditional pain management for pediatric patients with CP given its proven efficacy in decreasing pain and managing spasticity. Yet, administering epidural anesthesia in this patient population poses several risks including damage to preexisting intrathecal baclofen pumps, iatrogenic infection, and technically demanding insertion given high rates of concomitant neuromuscular scoliosis. Alternatively, multimodal analgesic injections theoretically offer an efficacious adjunct to traditional pain management protocols with a lower risk profile. Preliminary data from our study group's pilot randomized control trial comparing the safety and efficacy of a multimodal surgical site injection to placebo showed decreased pain scores and narcotic consumption postoperatively in this patient population. Based on these promising results, the objective of this randomized control trial is to evaluate the efficacy of a multimodal surgical site injection compared to epidural anesthesia for postoperative pain control following operative management of hip dysplasia in pediatric patients with CP.
NCT04581434
Many people who have posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) also struggle with problematic alcohol or drug use (substance use disorders \[SUD\]). Patients with both conditions prefer PTSD be treated alongside SUD. However, clinicians don't know if treatments that have been found to help those with PTSD work as well for people who also have SUD. This often leads to delaying PTSD treatment or using psychotherapies without research support. Trauma-focused psychotherapy (TFT) is the type of psychotherapy for PTSD that has been studied most often among people with both PTSD and SUD. It reduces symptoms of PTSD and substance use, although it might not work as well in those who have SUD as those who do not. Further, many patients with both PTSD and SUD do not complete TFT. Another strategy for treating PTSD is non-trauma-focused psychotherapy (NTFT). One NTFT, Present Centered Therapy, has been found to reduce symptoms of PTSD and more patients are able to complete NTFT than are able to finish TFT. However, no one has studied how well Present Centered Therapy works among patients who also have SUD. We will test which approach (TFT of NTFT) is better for reducing symptoms of PTSD and which is more likely to be completed by patients with both PTSD and SUD at VA healthcare facilities. We will also test to see whether some participants did better than others, so we can learn how to individualize treatment recommendations to patients. Participants will be assigned by chance to either TFT of NTFT. Patients assigned to TFT will receive either Prolonged Exposure or Cognitive Processing Therapy; both are weekly psychotherapies focused on addressing thoughts and/or memories related to their trauma. Those assigned to NTFT will receive Present Centered Therapy, a weekly psychotherapy in which patients learn about how PTSD relates to their current difficulties and problem solve current life difficulties. All participants will also receive SUD treatment. Participants will answer questions about their symptoms and experience with treatment before, right after they finish, and three and six months after they finish PTSD treatment. At the end of the study we will compare which treatment approach worked better to decrease PTSD symptom severity and which treatment patients were better able to complete. We will also track other outcomes that are important to patients (e.g., how they are doing in their relationships).

NCT02493530
This is a Phase 1, open-label, study of TGR-1202, a PI3K delta inhibitor, administered together with ruxolitinib in patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms (specifically: polycythemia vera, primary myelofibrosis, PPV-MF or PET-MF) and MDS/MPN.
NCT04933968
A study to evaluate ALVR106; an allogeneic, off-the-shelf multi-virus specific T cell therapy that targets four community acquired respiratory viruses: respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), influenza, human metapneumovirus (hMPV), and/or parainfluenza virus (PIV) following hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) and solid organ transplant (SOT).
NCT02675244
The purpose of the research is to determine whether repairing a tricuspid valve (TV) in patients with mild to moderate tricuspid regurgitation (TR), at the time of planned mitral valve surgery (MVS), would improve the heart health of those who receive it compared to those who do not. At this point, the medical community is split in their opinion on whether surgeons should routinely repair mild to moderate TR in patients who are undergoing planned mitral valve surgery, and this study will answer this question.
NCT02628405
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of lenalidomide when given together with rituximab-ifosfamide-carboplatin-etoposide (R-ICE) and to see how well they work in treating patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma that has returned after a period of improvement (relapsed) and that has not responded to previous treatment (refractory). Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as rituximab, ifosfamide, carboplatin, etoposide, and lenalidomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving lenalidomide with R-ICE may be a better treatment for patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
NCT05848128
The purpose of the study is to compare the efficacy and safety of 5% tavilermide ophthalmic solution to placebo for the treatment of the signs and symptoms of dry eye disease.
NCT04241094
PTSD occurs in as many as 17% of US military Veterans and is associated with a host of negative, long-term consequences to the individual, their families, and society at large. EBPs, such as Prolonged Exposure, result in clinically significant symptom relief for many. Yet, these therapies have proven less effective for military personnel and Veterans and treatment dropout rates are high. The investigators' team surveyed Veterans initiating EBPs for PTSD and a family member across four VA medical centers (N = 598; Project HomeFront). The investigators found that Veterans were more than twice as likely to complete EBPs when loved ones encouraged them to confront distress and that Veterans experienced greater treatment gains when they shared more with their loved ones about their treatment. A couples-based, exposure therapy for PTSD that integrates intimate partners into every session of PE could provide the opportunity to mobilize the whole household in the service of EBP engagement, while extending the goals of therapy beyond symptom reduction to family functioning. The investigators anticipate this intervention will teach couples to embrace a lifestyle that supports confronting trauma-related distress, so the Veteran and his/her family can achieve optimal functional outcomes.
NCT03256227
Evidence-based psychotherapies (EBP) for PTSD, such as Prolonged Exposure (PE), result in clinically significant symptom relief for many. Yet, adherence to this treatment (i.e., session attendance and homework compliance), which is vital to ensuring recovery, can be poor. This project will test the effectiveness of improving family support for PE as a tool to improve Veterans' PE adherence. Reducing rates of dropout from PE will positively impact Veterans' health and well-being and lower the cost of treating PTSD. Additionally, despite congressional legislation and national mandates within VA/DoD for family involvement in PTSD care, there remains no proven strategies for how to routinely include family in traditional individual (i.e., one-on-one) EBPs for PTSD. This proposal will provide the initial test of a model of family engagement that can be translated to other problems faced by Veterans, including suicide prevention, traumatic brain injury (TBI) rehabilitation, and pain management, contributing to a broader evolution towards evidence-based, family-inclusive care.
NCT05393284
OPL-0401-201 is a multicenter study to investigate the safety and efficacy of OPL-0401 in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) with diabetic retinopathy.
NCT03941834
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of BHV3000 compared to placebo for subjects with treatment refractory Trigeminal Neuralgia as measured by a 2-point or greater reduction in the average Numeric Pain Rating Scale between the two-week treatment phases.
NCT02017912
This is a multi-center, randomized, double blind, placebo controlled study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of autologous (self) transplantation of Neurotrophic factors-secreting Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (MSC-NTF, NurOwn™) in patients with ALS . MSC-NTF cells are a novel cell-therapeutic approach which is expected to effectively deliver Neurotrophic factors, which are potent survival factors for neurons, directly to the site of damage.
NCT03451825
This is a multi-center, open-label, international study to evaluate the dose, safety and tolerability, antitumor activity, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamics of avelumab in pediatric subjects 0 to less than 18 years of age with refractory or relapsed malignant solid tumors (including central nervous system tumors) and lymphoma for which no standard therapy is available or for which the subject is not eligible for the existing therapy. The study was planned to be conducted in 2 parts: the dose-finding part (Phase I) and the tumor-specified expansion part (Phase II). However, Phase II was cancelled due to limited clinical benefit of PD-L1 monotherapy in pediatric participants.
NCT03999801
This is a prospective, observational study designed to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of RGX-314. Eligible participants are those who were previously enrolled in a clinical study in which they received a single subretinal administration of RGX-314 in their study eye. Enrollment of each participant in the current study should occur after the participant has completed either the end of study or early termination visit in the previous (parent) clinical study. Participants will be followed for up to 5 years post-RGX-314 administration (inclusive of the parent study). After enrollment and a 6-month follow-up visit, participants will attend at least annual study visits through the end of the 5-year post-RGX-314 administration follow-up period. Additionally, an interventional fellow eye treatment substudy will evaluate the safety, efficacy, and immunogenicity of subretinal RGX-314 administration in the fellow eye of participants having bilateral disease who previously received a subretinal injection of RGX-314 in their study eye. Participants who qualify for the substudy will receive subretinal administration of RGX-314 in their fellow eye and complete 13 study visits in a 54-week period. Following completion of the substudy participants will continue in the observational portion of the study for up to 5 years post RGX-314 administration in their fellow eye.
