NCT03520985
Pomalidomide is an approved treatment for refractory multiple myeloma. Toxicity of pomalidomide in the pivotal MM-003 trial, was considerable, with 60% of patients experiencing drug-related G3/4 toxicity. Neutropenia (48% vs 16%) and pneumonia (13% vs 8%) were significantly more common in the pomalidomide arm. This resulted in frequent dose interruptions (67%) and dose reductions (27%). This suggests that for the majority of patients the 4 mg daily dosing schedule is too toxic, and that strategies to deliver reduced dosing of pomalidomide are of high practical relevance. The aim of this trial therefore is to establish that alternate day dosing of pomalidomide (4 mg q2d, d1-28) is non-inferior to daily dosing (4 mg d1-21 q28) in terms of efficacy of the drug with potentially less side effects.
NCT03211013
The investigators will test whether intranasal oxytocin (24 IU vs placebo) will induce effects on attention bias and startle comparable to those the investigators have shown to be induced by the presence (vs absence) of a service dog in Veterans diagnosed with PTSD. This possibility is suggested by a 2015 study showing that urinary oxytocin levels are elevated in association with mutual gaze between dogs and their owners.
NCT03771352
For patients undergoing cataract surgery, the purpose of this study is to evaluate a patient's far vision without glasses and quality of vision after implantation and UV treatment of the RxSight Light Adjustable Lens (RxLAL).Following completion of all light treatments, the patient's far vision without glasses and quality of vision will be assessed 6 months postoperatively.
NCT02630732
The primary scientific objective of the study entails examining whether perioperative pain neuroscience education (PPNE or 'brain school') is more effective than classical back school in reducing pain and improving pain inhibition in patients undergoing surgery for spinal radiculopathy. A secondary objective implies examining whether PPNE is more effective than classical back school in imparting a behavioural change (i.e. decreasing postoperative healthcare expenditure for lumbar radiculopathy), improving functioning in daily life and improving surgical experience (=better prepared for surgery, surgery meeting their expectations) in patients undergoing surgery for spinal radiculopathy.
NCT01124149
This study was designed to evaluate if subjects who achieve complete remission after 8 weeks of acute therapy with MMX mesalamine/mesalazine 4.8g/day given QD have better long-term outcomes and remain in remission longer compared with subjects who demonstrate only partial remission after acute therapy with MMX mesalamine/mesalazine 4.8g/day given QD. Therefore, subjects who achieve either complete or partial remission will enter into a 12-month maintenance phase, during which they will receive MMX mesalamine/mesalazine 2.4g/day given QD. Remission status for the 2 groups will be evaluated and compared at the end of this 12-month maintenance period. The data obtained from this study will provide scientifically meaningful information to demonstrate that achieving complete remission (clinical and endoscopic remission) is important for a better long-term prognosis, or that the current paradigm of symptomatic treatment is appropriate.
NCT04913545
Due to cancer is a leading cause of death world wide , we will coduct the study to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of using salivary miRNAs (412,512) from the salivary extracellular vesicles (index test) in detection of the malignant transformation of the premalignant lesions using the qualitative real time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) analysis in comparison to taking biopsy .
NCT03784794
Obstetric Hemorrhage continues to be the first cause of maternal morbidity and mortality around the world especially in middle to low income countriesThe blood components are high value resources; however, its use has been shown to be a risk factor of known complications. The aim of the study is to compare two algorithms of coagulation management in massive obstetric hemorrhage Methods A randomized prospective trial single center two arms study in patients with severe obstetric hemorrhage (PPH \> 1000) 2 different transfusion protocols one guided by thromboelastometry and hemostatic drugs (protrombine complex concentrate and fibrinogen concentrate) and the second guided by standard coagulation test and hemocomponents. Sample is calculated to known variance, Analyses are intention-to-treat without imputation, with outcomes will be performed between groups using mixed-effects two level regression models. For binary outcomes, a logistic model will be used and results presented as adjusted odds ratios (ORs) alongside 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Count data will be analysed using Poisson multilevel or negative binomial models. Primary Outcome Parameter: Compare between the two protocols: Number of allogeneic blood products transfused intra-op, within 24h after screening and in-hospital (RBC, Platelets and FFP; separate and overall) Secondary Outcome Parameter: Analysis of mortality, lenth of stay admission to the ICU, hysterectomy surgical reintervencion, Transfuse associated circulatory overload, Transfusion associated Acute lung injury, health associated infection will be measured as secondary outcome.
NCT02842242
The purpose of this phase 2 open-label pilot study is to evaluate the efficacy, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), safety, and tolerability of MYK-461 in subjects with symptomatic HCM and LVOT obstruction aged 18-70 years.
NCT03306563
The objective of the study is to confirm the clinical relevance of the novel biomarker for traumatic brain injury (TBI) detection. Samples of blood, urine and saliva will be collected from a) patients with suspected TBI (isolated), b) patients with orthopedic injury, and c) healthy controls. The sponsor will do biochemical investigations for the samples to evaluate the presence, level and structure of the targeted biomarker.
NCT02317042
This study is to evaluate the efficacy of a new therapy (Automatic Expiratory Positive Airway Pressure with intelligent Volume Assured Pressure Support (AutoEPAP iVAPS)) designed to treat respiratory insufficiency, respiratory failure and/or nocturnal hypoventilation with upper airway obstruction. The study will be performed in two phases: In a sleep unit and in the home environment. The new therapy will be compared against two existing ventilator therapies: "Spontaneous Timed (ST) mode" and "Intelligent Volume Assured Pressure Support (iVAPS)".
NCT01552915
The purpose of this study is to determine effectiveness of Vyvanse compared to Concerta in adolescents with Attention-deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).
NCT03776526
Patients over the age of 65 who are admitted to the Juravinski Hospital for treatment of hip fractures will be invited to take part in the study. An activity monitor (a Fitbit® Alta HR) will be attached to the participant post-operatively, to record quality of sleep and amount of activity for the duration of hospital stay. The time spent in hospital and whether complications or confusion develops will also be recorded. The aim is to determine whether poor sleep affects recovery after hip fracture surgery.
NCT02402166
The purpose of this study is to gain initial safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic, and efficacy information on SPD489 in preschool children 4-5 years old who are diagnosed with ADHD. Generating such data will provide data on the use of SPD489 in the preschool ADHD population.
NCT04916873
Rehabilitation status of children with cerebral palsy (CP) and anxiety of their caregivers during the covid19 pandemic were explored. 206 caregivers who voluntarily accepted to participate were administered the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory and evaluated about the rehabilitation status of their children.The anxiety levels of all caregivers were found high and the rehabilitation programmes of the children were interrupted.
NCT03969316
Transversus abdominis plane (TAP) and Quadratus lumborum (QL) blocks are used for the management of acute pain treatment, especially after the lower and upper abdominal surgeries. The TAP block which is one of the abdominal truncal blocks is performed with the blockage of the nerve group which innervates the anterior abdominal muscle wall layers. However, in QL block, the local anesthetic agent spreads through the abdominal wall and paravertebral space with the help of the perimuscular fascia to maintain the somatic analgesia. The investigators' aim in this study, to investigate the effect of the TAP and QL blocks on peroperative and postoperative analgesic consumption in children undergoing unilateral elective orchiopexy.
