NCT01659606
Dyskeratosis congenita is a disease that affects numerous parts of the body, most typically causing failure of the blood system. Lung disease, liver disease and cancer are other frequent causes of illness and death. Bone marrow transplantation (BMT) can cure the blood system but can make the lung and liver disease and risk of cancer worse, because of DNA damaging agents such as alkylators and radiation that are typically used in the procedure. Based on the biology of DC, we hypothesize that it may be possible to avoid these DNA damaging agents in patients with DC, and still have a successful BMT. In this protocol we will test whether a regimen that avoids DNA alkylators and radiation can permit successful BMT without compromising survival in patients with DC.
NCT03844620
This phase II trial studies circulating cell-free tumor DNA testing to guide treatment with regorafenib or TAS-102 in patients with colorectal cancer that has spread to other areas of the body. Studying samples of blood from patients with colorectal cancer may help doctors understand how well patients respond to treatment. Regorafenib and TAS-102 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known how well ctDNA testing works in guiding treatment with regorafenib and TAS-102 for patients with advanced or metastatic colorectal cancer.
NCT06520358
Acute intermittent hypoxia (AIH) involves 1-2min of breathing low oxygen air to stimulate neuroplasticity. Animal and human studies show that AIH improves motor function after neural injury, particularly when paired with task-specific training. Using a double blind cross-over study we will test whether AIH and task-specific airway protection training improves airway protection more than training alone in individuals with chronic mild-moderate traumatic brain injury (TBI).
NCT07328685
One biopsychosocial approach proven effective in headache treatment is basic body awareness therapy. This study was planned to evaluate the effectiveness of basic body awareness training and lifestyle recommendations in individuals diagnosed with migraine. Functional status will be assessed using the Migraine-Related Disability Assessment Scale (MIDAS), sleep quality using the Jenkins Sleep Scale (JUS), and quality of life using the Headache Impact Test. Assessment of functional status, sleep quality, and quality of life will be performed before treatment and after treatment (at the end of week 8).
NCT07114276
This study aims to investigate the utility of predictive models for chemotherapy-induced nephrotoxicity in the Taiwanese cancer population. The investigators will prospectively collect clinical data from enrolled participants, including demographic information, comorbidities, laboratory data, and chemotherapy treatment details. After chemotherapy administration, participants' renal function will be monitored over time to assess the development of nephrotoxicity, based on changes in serum creatinine (SCr) and other relevant clinical criteria. The primary objective is to evaluate and compare the predictive performance of a machine learning model and clinical physicians, using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) as the main metric for discrimination performance.
NCT07147933
Children with cerebral palsy (CP) often develop gait abnormalities, with crouch gait being a common and challenging issue that affects their posture and daily function. Numerous studies indicate that crouch gait is primarily caused by hamstring tightness and quadriceps weakness. Traditional treatment approaches focus on hamstring stretching and quadriceps strengthening exercises to improve gait patterns. highlight the importance of strengthening muscles like the quadriceps and stretching tight muscles such as the hamstrings in improving gait abnormalities source. Despite these common treatments, results often fall short of achieving full correction of crouch gait. Therefore, I propose a novel approach to treating abnormal gait in children with CP by targeting the anterior pelvic tilt and strengthening the soleus muscle. This approach aims to address biomechanical factors that are not typically considered in traditional treatments, potentially leading to better functional outcomes we use Surface EMG to record activity of key muscle (soleus) during Seated Calf Raises exercise Muscle activity will be recorded before and after a series of physical therapy sessions focused on pelvic alignment and soleus strengthening. EMG Data Analysis: Root Mean Square (RMS), timing of activation, and amplitude changes will be assessed.
NCT07329881
This diagnostic study aims to compare the performance of an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm designed to assist in the interpretation of traumatic bone radiographs (all anatomical regions excluding the thorax) with that of human readers, including emergency medicine and family medicine residents as well as senior physicians (one emergency medicine specialist and one orthopedic surgeon). The study follows a paired reader study design: identical anonymized radiographic images are independently interpreted by the AI system and by human readers. The reference standard ("gold standard") will be defined by the consensus reading of the two senior physicians. Inter-observer agreement (kappa statistics) between the AI, residents, and senior reference readings will be estimated, and false negatives and false positives will be analyzed by lesion type and anatomical location.
NCT04777071
This trial studies how well 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET scan works in imaging patients with prostate cancer. Diagnostic procedures, such as 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET may find and diagnose prostate cancer and improve monitoring of treatment response.
NCT00012545
This study will determine the best ways to collect, process and store umbilical cord blood from babies with sickle cell disease, sickle cell trait and unaffected babies. Sickle cell disease is an abnormality of the hemoglobin in red blood cells that causes the cells to change shape and clump together, preventing their normal flow in the bloodstream. This impairs blood flow to various organs, and the resulting oxygen deprivation causes organ damage. Cord blood is rich in stem cells (cells produced in the bone marrow that mature to different types of blood cells), which may prove useful in new sickle cell therapies. However, cord blood from babies with sickle cell trait, sickle cell disease and normal babies may act differently under laboratory conditions, so it is important to learn how best to work with blood from all three groups of babies for future use in possible treatments. Pregnant women between 18 and 45 years of age who are at risk of having an infant with sickle cell disease and normal volunteers who are pregnant and not at risk for this disease may be eligible for this study. Potential participants will be counseled about donating her infant s blood in order to make an informed choice. All women who participate in the study will provide a medical history and have blood collected from the umbilical cord and placenta (afterbirth) after the baby s delivery. The blood will be tested for various infectious diseases, processed, frozen and stored for research purposes. In addition, blood from women with babies at risk for sickle cell disease will be tested for the presence of the sickle cell gene, tissue typed, and used for research as follows: * Sickle cell disease - If cord blood tests show the baby has sickle cell disease, the blood will be frozen for an indefinite period of time for possible use in future treatment of the child. This treatment could include stem cell transplantation or gene therapy, treatments are not currently considered routine for sickle cell disease. * Sickle cell trait or normal hemoglobin - If cord blood tests show the baby has sickle cell trait or is unaffected, the blood will be processed and stored for up to 3 years, during which time it may possibly be used to treat a currently living or future sibling with sickle cell disease. After 3 years, the participant may agree to either have the blood discarded, given to research or moved to another facility for continued storage at the participant s expense, if there is a storage fee. Alternatively, if there is no anticipated future need for the collected blood, or if it does not meet standards needed for future treatment, it will be used in NIH-approved research studies. Participants and their family doctor or the baby s pediatrician will be contacted twice a year for information about changes in the baby s health. Participants may also be asked permission to perform new tests developed by researchers. ...

In this study, patients with HFpEF (EF ≥50%) or HFmrEF (LVEF 45-49%) will be included.
NCT07073937
The goal of this study is to learn if combining minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) procedures with different mechanisms of action increases the effectiveness of MIGS. The main question the study aims to answer is: Does combining viscodilation (a surgical technique, often used in glaucoma treatment, that involves using a high-viscosity, elastic gel to widen and open the Schlemm's canal, a main drainage channel in the eye) with the iTrack catheter, along with the Hydrus microstent, show better reduction in intraocular pressure than cataract surgery alone? Researchers will retrospectively review charts of patients who have open-angle glaucoma who have undergone combination Hydrus implantation and 360-degree iTrack canaloplasty with concomitant cataract surgery, who have at least 36 months of clinical follow-up data. Baseline demographic information and severity of glaucoma will be recorded, as will change from baseline yearly to three years in average optical coherence tomography (OCT) retina nerve fiber layer (RNFL) measurements and visual field (VF) pattern standard deviation. Safety outcomes and the percentage of eyes requiring secondary surgical intervention will be recorded at yearly time points.
NCT07328919

NCT06832306
Multi-center, randomized, controlled, open-label Phase 2 feasibility trial. Subjects on mechanical ventilation (MV) for acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF) with lung injury (including subjects who meet criteria for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS)) will be randomized 2:1 to diaphragm neurostimulation-assisted ventilation (DNAV) using the AeroNova System plus lung-protective ventilation (Treatment) vs. lung-protective ventilation alone (Control).
NCT07329257
Rare genetic neurodevelopmental disorders, such as Syt-1 or Baker Gordon Syndrome (BAGOS) arise from mutations in genes essential for brain development and function, often disrupting neurotransmission and neuronal connectivity. These conditions present with a wide range of symptoms including developmental delays, seizures, motor and behavioral challenges, and vary widely in severity. These disorders are complex, and they remain poorly understood and lack effective treatments. Natural history and clinical genetic studies are crucial for mapping how these disorders progress, improving diagnostic accuracy, and guiding therapy development. A major focus is identifying reliable biomarkers (genetic, imaging, and physiological) to track disease severity and support clinical trials. This study will securely collect and analyze data to better understand disease impact, develop patient-derived model systems, and build resources to support future treatments.

NCT05270096
The iLTB is a proof-of-concept initiative for children with r/r hematological malignancies, in which available treatment options will be prioritized by actionable events in a harmonized and uniform setting across Europe by a team of biologists, bio-statisticians, bio-informaticians, disease experts, geneticists, flow-experts, clinical trial physicians and also the treating physician. The iLTB will discuss molecular (genetic lesions), immunophenotypic/surface antigen markers information and, if available, drug response profiles to prioritize these events taking into account the treatment history and treatment intention (bridging to hematopoietic stem cell transplanation/CAR-T or palliative) of each patient followed by a registry to monitor how often iLTB advice has been followed, which other therapy was chosen (off-label, compassionate use) and what the patient outcome is at an aggregated level. As such the iLTB is non-interventional as it mainly provides advice and registers data on patients discussed in the iLTB.
NCT07314853
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if using artificial intelligence to guide intravenous fluid therapy during major cancer surgery can help keep blood pressure more stable compared with usual care in adult patients undergoing major cancer surgery. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does artificial intelligence-guided fluid therapy reduce hypotensive events during surgery? * Does this approach improve recovery and reduce complications after major cancer surgery? Researchers will compare artificial intelligence-guided fluid therapy with standard fluid management to see if the artificial intelligence-guided approach provides better support during surgery. Participants will: * Undergo major cancer surgery under general anesthesia * Receive either artificial intelligence-guided fluid management or standard fluid management during surgery * Be monitored during and after surgery as part of routine clinical care * Be followed after surgery to assess recovery and possible complications
