A randomized, placebo controlled, double-blind (within dosing group), sequential dose escalation study. This phase 1 trial addresses the urgent need for a vaccine to prevent disease resulting from infection with West Nile virus (WNV), a virus that is primarily spread to people by the bite of an infected mosquito. The purpose of this Phase 1 trial is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of the HydroVax-001B WNV vaccine in healthy adult volunteers. The study Population will consist of healthy male and non-pregnant, non-breastfeeding female adults, 18 to 49 years of age, inclusive. Potential participants with a history of prior flavivirus infection or receipt of any flavivirus vaccine or monoclonal antibody, and those who likely had a prior flavivirus infection based on exposure history will be ineligible for the study. Participants will be randomized to receive HydroVax-001B WNV vaccine or placebo in a 12:3 ratio within a dosage group. Participants will be sequentially enrolled into two dosage groups. The primary objective is to assess the safety and reactogenicity of 4 mcg versus 10 mcg dose of the HydroVax-001B WNV vaccine administered intramuscularly (IM) on Days 1, 29 and 181.
NCT06183320
Treatment clinical trial, randomized, controlled, parallel, double-blinded, with two groups, that aims to evaluate the best application strategy when using a flowable bulk fill composite (Opus Bulk Fill Flow APS, FGM, Brazil) in class II cavities. Volunteers will be selected and recruited, following inclusion criteria and pre-established exclusion criteria. All volunteers will be informed and sign a term of clarification and consent. 38 enrolled patients will receive 76 Class II dental restorations, made in two different ways, one from each experimental group. Authors will perform restorations with an incremental composite (Vittra APS - FGM) associated with a bulk-fill flowable composite (Opus Bulk Fill Flow APS - FGM), in class II cavities, exposing (Group BP) or not (Group IP) the bulk fill flowable composite to the cavosurface angle on the proximal wall of the restorations. In both groups, Opus Bulk Fill Flow APS resin will be used in the bulk technique with up to 5mm depth increments, leaving 1 mm in the occlusal for incremental Vittra APS composite resin. Immediate post-operative tooth sensitivity will be evaluated after one week. Restorations will be evaluated every 6 months for pain assessment, shape, fractures, staining or recurrent caries, using FDI scores. To determine in which group each tooth will be enrolled, the authors will randomize the teeth.
NCT07583797
The goal of this pilot prospective cohort study is to evaluate the efficacy of a novel hand and foot mask in alleviating symptoms of peripheral neuropathy caused by chemotherapy or diabetes. The study aims to determine whether regular use of these masks can improve patient comfort and quality of life. The primary questions this study aims to answer are: Does the use of the hand and foot mask reduce the severity of symptoms associated with chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) or diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN)? Does the application of the masks improve patient quality of life and treatment compliance for those undergoing chemotherapy? Participants will: Complete an initial assessment questionnaire on Day 1. Apply hand and foot masks daily for 5 minutes, for 7 consecutive days. Complete a follow-up questionnaire on Day 7 to assess the effects of one week of use. Inclusion Criteria Individuals are eligible for the study if they meet the following criteria: Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy (CIPN) group: Age 20 or older. Currently receiving or having previously received chemotherapy. Demonstrating clinical signs and symptoms of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy. Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy (DPN) group: Age 20 or older. Diagnosed with diabetes mellitus. Demonstrating clinical signs and symptoms of diabetic peripheral neuropathy. General requirement: Participants must be willing to participate and capable of signing the Informed Consent Form (ICF).

NCT07587190
The study aims 1) to adapt, 2) to develop implementation strategies for and 3) to evaluate the effect of implementing a practice guideline for acute abdomen at primary care level in Zambia. We employ a sequential exploratory mixed method study design. Qualitative and quantitative data from health care workers will be used to adapt a practice guideline developed in a high-income into a low- and middle-income (LMIC) context and to develop strategies for successful implementation. The primary outcome of interest is the prospective change in length of stay in hospital among patients presenting with acute abdomen in the intervention site compared to the control site. The study will address the scarcity of literature on practice guidelines for acute abdomen in the LMIC context. The implementation of an adapted guideline may contribute to a reduction of the morbidity and mortality rates associated with acute abdomen in this setting by increasing management capacity at the primary care level.
NCT07387653
The LIMB Study is a prospective, observational pilot study evaluating the feasibility of combined non-invasive hemodynamic and lower-limb tissue oximetry monitoring during prolonged minimally invasive pelvic surgeries performed in lithotomy position. Thirty patients will undergo continuous intraoperative monitoring, with the primary outcome being the frequency and duration of tissue oxygen desaturation events and secondary outcomes examining correlations with postoperative limb pain, sensation, and motor function. The study is non-interventional, poses minimal risk, and aims to generate preliminary data to inform future strategies for early detection and prevention of limb ischemia and well-leg compartment syndrome
NCT07587073
This pragmatic, cluster-randomized trial will evaluate whether a comprehensive CalAIM-aligned care model consisting of Enhanced Care Management, selected Community Supports, Transitional Care Services, and residential care coordination improves population health outcomes among high-risk Medi-Cal managed care members in California compared with usual CalAIM service delivery. The intervention is intended to improve continuity of care after discharge, reduce potentially avoidable utilization, increase successful linkage to outpatient and social supports, and improve community tenure and patient-reported outcomes.
NCT06834243
This retrospective study evaluates the effects of two different administration methods of the Pericapsular Nerve Group (PENG) Block on postoperative pain control, opioid consumption, and recovery in patients undergoing hip surgery. All patients in the study received: * PENG block via a catheter * Patient-Controlled Analgesia (PCA) with tramadol * Multimodal analgesia, including IV paracetamol and nonsteroidal anti inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) as rescue analgesia The study compares two groups: 1. Intermittent Bolus Group: A researcher administered 20 mL of 0.25% bupivacaine every 4 hours. 2. Continuous Infusion Group: A pump delivered 5 mL/hour of 0.25% bupivacaine continuously. Both groups received the same total volume of local anesthetic over 24 hours. All PENG blocks were performed under ultrasound guidance at the end of surgery. This study aims to determine whether intermittent bolus or continuous infusion PENG block administration leads to better pain control, lower opioid consumption, and improved recovery outcomes.
NCT06934525
The purpose of this study is to test how the delivery of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for pediatric anxiety and OCD via different methods might increase its availability and effectiveness. CBT involves teaching the patient skills to enable them to gradually come into contact with feared situations. This process of gradually approaching feared situations is called exposure. Although CBT with exposure has the best evidence for treating anxiety disorders, not all children have equal access or respond the same way to CBT. As part of this study, patients will receive weekly CBT treatment sessions involving a combination of weekly visits with an exposure coach and one visit a month with a licensed provider (e.g., psychologist, social worker). This treatment will be delivered using one of three methods: 1) in-person (face-to-face sessions, occurring in the office and the home/community), or 2) telehealth (entirely remote sessions via web-based video conference), or 3) flexible (individualized mix of in-person and/or telehealth sessions). Eligible participants will be randomly assigned to one of these three methods. Results of this study will help determine which treatment method works best for whom. Treatment as described above will occur as part of care at partnering community care sites in Rhode Island. Providers from the following partnering community care sites will make up patient treatment teams: Blackstone Valley Community Health Care, Family Services of Rhode Island, Gateway Healthcare, Newport Mental Health, and Thrive Behavioral Health. The research study is being conducted by the Pediatric Anxiety Research Center at Brown University Health. The research team will conduct the study assessments that patients will be asked to participate in as study participants. Patients will be asked to complete assessments prior to starting treatment, at two time points during treatment, at the end of treatment, and at two timepoints 3 and 6 months following the end of treatment. Participants will be compensated for their time completing research assessments.
NCT05512377
This study is open to adults with advanced cancer in the biliary tract, pancreas, lung, or bladder. This is a study for people for whom previous treatment was not successful or no treatment exists. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called BI 907828 helps people with cancer in the biliary tract, pancreas, lung, or bladder. BI 907828 is a so-called MDM2 inhibitor that is being developed to treat cancer. All participants take BI 907828 as a tablet once every 3 weeks. Participants may continue to take BI 907828 as long as they benefit from treatment and can tolerate it. They visit the study site regularly. At the study site, doctors regularly check the size of the tumour and whether it has spread to other parts of the body. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.
NCT04975919
This phase II trial studies the effects of venetoxlax in combination with decitabine and cedazuridine in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Chemotherapy drugs, such as venetoclax and decitabine, 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. Cedazuridine may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving venetoxlax in combination with decitabine and cedazuridine may help to control acute myeloid leukemia.
NCT07261787
Respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) is common in very preterm infants due to surfactant deficiency. Surfactant replacement therapy is lifesaving, and current guidelines recommend the less invasive surfactant administration (LISA) technique. However, the optimal duration of surfactant instillation during LISA has never been systematically evaluated. Rapid instillation may provoke transient hypoxia and bradycardia, while slower administration might improve physiological stability and cerebral oxygenation. This randomised controlled trial investigates whether the duration of surfactant administration (1 minute versus 5 minutes) affects cerebral and systemic oxygen stability in extremely preterm neonates (\< 28 weeks).
NCT04630028
The purpose of this study is to evaluate: a) the efficacy of ustekinumab dosing in inducing clinical remission, b) safety profile of ustekinumab, and c) ustekinumab exposure (pharmacokinetics \[PK\]) in pediatric participants with moderately to severely active UC.
NCT07587476
This randomized controlled trial aims to compare the effectiveness of Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy (CIMT) combined with Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) versus CIMT alone in improving upper limb function, reducing spasticity, and enhancing functional independence in children with cerebral palsy (CP). A total of 46 children aged 3 to 15 years with spastic or dyskinetic cerebral palsy will be recruited from rehabilitation centers and hospitals in Sukkur, Pakistan. Participants will be randomly assigned into two groups: Group A will receive CIMT combined with FES, while Group B will receive CIMT alone. Both groups will undergo supervised therapy sessions five times per week for six weeks. Outcomes will be assessed before and after treatment using the Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS), Melbourne Assessment of Unilateral Upper Limb Function (MUUL), and Pediatric Evaluation of Disability Inventory (PEDI). The study aims to determine whether combining FES with CIMT provides greater improvements in motor recovery and daily functional performance in children with CP.
