Group II: Will take HU alone and Group III: Will take Thalidomide alone and outcome will be recorded.
NCT02792582
Craniopharyngioma is a rare brain tumor that affects both children and adults. It arises in a region of the brain near the pituitary gland, visual pathways, and central blood vessels. Patients often present with headache, loss of vision or delayed growth. In some instances they may present with imbalance of water and salts in the body. The treatment for craniopharyngioma may be radical surgery or a combination of surgery and radiation therapy. In some instances surgery is not required. If the tumor cannot be completely removed, radiation therapy may be required. In this study we will use the most advanced form of proton therapy which is called intensity-modulated proton therapy. This is a newer form of radiation therapy which has a number of advantages over older forms of proton therapy and conventional radiation therapy using x-rays. The main goal of this study is to learn if proton therapy will effectively treat patients with craniopharyngioma brain tumors and reduce side effects compared to more traditional forms of radiation therapy.
NCT07654387
The management of nucleus may be challenging in rocky hard cataracts. Hard cataracts are difficult to fragment, and the excessive energy required to emulsify the hard nucleus can result in complications such as corneal edema, inflammation, wound burn, posterior capsular rupture, and zonular dialysis. different surgical techniques are used for the management of hard cataracts, with their advantages and limitations. Divide and conquer with debulking is a new technique for management of rocky hard cataract. In this research we assess its safety comparing it with standard divide and conquer technique.
NCT07653880
This randomized controlled, single-blind clinical trial investigates whether virtual reality (VR)-assisted, video game-based exercise training, added to a conventional pulmonary physiotherapy and rehabilitation program, improves functional level, respiratory parameters, and physical fitness in pediatric patients (5-18 years) following hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Participants attended 24 supervised, face-to-face exercise sessions over 8 weeks (3×/week) under physiotherapist supervision. The Experimental Group received game-based exercise using the Nintendo Wii Fit U platform with the Wii Balance Board and the Breathing Labs Breathing Games software (Slovenia) in addition to the conventional program. Outcomes included the Modified Alpha-Fit Pediatric Test Battery (vertical jump, 6-minute walk test, sit-and-reach, flamingo balance), upper-extremity isometric muscle strength (handheld dynamometry) and handgrip strength (Jamar), pulmonary function tests, maximal inspiratory and expiratory mouth pressures, accessory respiratory muscle architecture by myotonometry (MyotonPro: sternocleidomastoid, upper trapezius, pectoralis major), and ultrasound assessment of pleural thickness, diaphragm thickness, and diaphragm excursion.
NCT03086421
Many children with cancer are diagnosed in early childhood, and as such, will likely miss key social experiences such as participation in preschool or kindergarten, playing on playgrounds, and other normative experiences. In typically-developing children, it is known that these experiences - and the skills that are learned during them - are critical to later well-being. Very little is known about the psychological functioning of young children with cancer, as studies have predominantly focused on those who are older (at least 8 years of age). This study will explicitly assess social functioning in preschool-aged children with cancer and follow the development of their social functioning from the end of treatment into survivorship. The goals of this pilot study are to begin to assess the impact of missed early childhood social experiences, as well as the interaction with developing neurocognitive problems. PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: Explore the impact of cancer in the central nervous system on social functioning of young children (ages 4-6) after completion of therapy.
NCT06892093
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of probiotics for the prevention of diarrhea in patients with breast cancer receiving the tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) Neratinib. Study Design: This is a prospective, randomized controlled clinical trial. Participants will be randomly assigned to either a probiotics intervention group or a placebo-controlled group. Both groups will receive prophylactic loperamide according to the FDA-recommended dosing schedule for neratinib-associated diarrhea. Primary Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of probiotics in reducing the incidence and severity of diarrhea in patients receiving Neratinib. Secondary Objectives: This study will also investigate the effects of probiotics on gut microbiota composition and their potential impact on drug efficacy. Study Duration: Enrollment is planned from August 2025 to June 2027 at Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hospital, Sun Yat-Sen University. Both the intervention and control groups will receive treatment for a total of six weeks (two cycles of three weeks each). No post-treatment observation period is included. Eligibility Criteria: Participants must be diagnosed with HER2-positive breast cancer and scheduled to receive Neratinib. Exclusion criteria include patients with severe gastrointestinal disorders or recent probiotic consumption.
NCT04166409
This phase III trial compares the effect of selumetinib versus the standard of care treatment with carboplatin and vincristine (CV) in treating patients with newly diagnosed or previously untreated low-grade glioma (LGG) that does not have a genetic abnormality called BRAFV600E mutation and is not associated with systemic neurofibromatosis type 1. Selumetinib works by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and may kill tumor cells. Carboplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. It works in a way similar to the anticancer drug cisplatin, but may be better tolerated than cisplatin. Carboplatin works by killing, stopping or slowing the growth of tumor cells. Vincristine is in a class of medications called vinca alkaloids. It works by stopping tumor cells from growing and dividing and may kill them. The overall goal of this study is to see if selumetinib works just as well as the standard treatment of CV for patients with LGG. Another goal of this study is to compare the effects of selumetinib versus CV in subjects with LGG to find out which is better. Additionally, this trial will also examine if treatment with selumetinib improves the quality of life for subjects who take it.
NCT03216187
This study will test the benefits and risks of using pregabalin perioperatively to prevent persistent postoperative pain in patients at high risk (\>30%) of developing such pain after breast cancer surgery.
NCT07407998
This prospective observational study aims to evaluate the performance of multiple artificial intelligence-based large language models in assigning American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status (ASA-PS) classifications in adult preoperative patients. AI-generated ASA scores obtained using both prompted and unprompted clinical scenario inputs will be compared with assessments performed by experienced anesthesiologists. The agreement, accuracy, readability, and overall quality of AI outputs will be analyzed to determine the potential role of artificial intelligence in supporting preoperative risk stratification.
NCT05616910
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) causes acute deficits in cerebral perfusion which may lead to secondary injury and worse outcomes. Inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) is a vasodilator that increases cerebral blood flow and is clinically used for hypoxic respiratory failure in neonates and adults. The investigators will perform a randomized controlled trial of iNO treatment in TBI patients acutely after injury. The investigators will then assess perfusion changes with optic neuromonitoring, blood biomarkers, and 6 month clinical outcomes.
NCT07655089
This randomized controlled trial aims to compare Ward's incision and Comma incision regarding postoperative swelling following extraction of impacted mandibular third molars. Secondary outcomes include pain and bleeding assessed 48 hours after surgery. The findings will help identify the incision technique associated with better postoperative outcomes
NCT05557279
The purpose of this study is to learn about how the use of 500 mg of dried cranberry powder extract (NDS-446) changes the bacteria that normal reside in the bladder of women who don't have urinary leakage problems but do have problems with urinary urgency and frequency.
NCT07652814
The goal of this clinical trial is to study the efficacy and safety of treatment with avalglucosidase alfa in patients with late onset Pompe disease that previously deteriorated on alglucosidase alfa. The main question it aims to answer is: * Is switching to avalglucosidase alfa in late-onset Pompe patients deteriorating on alglucosidase alfa safe? * Is switching to avalglucosidase alfa in late-onset Pompe patients deteriorating on alglucosidase alfa potentially more effective? Participants will switch to biweekly avalglucosidase alfa infusions (instead of alglucosidase alfa infusions) and perform assessment for: * Efficacy: muscle strength and function, pulmonary function, patient-reported outcomes. * Safety: Adverse events assessment, physical examination, clinical laboratory evaluations, vital signs, ECGs and immunogenicity assessments. * Pharmacokinetic assessments during 2 avalglucosidase alfa infusions.
NCT04197713
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of adavosertib when given together with olaparib in treating patients with solid tumors that have spread to other places in the body (advanced) with selected mutations. Adavosertib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. PARPs are proteins that help repair DNA mutations. PARP inhibitors, such as olaparib, can keep PARP from working, so tumor cells can't repair themselves, and they may stop growing. Giving olaparib and adavosertib one after the other may shrink or stabilize advanced solid tumors as successfully as using them together, with fewer side effects.
NCT01676805
Background: \- Lab studies help researchers better understand cancer biology. This information may lead to new methods for diagnosing or treating cancer. To develop these studies, researchers want to collect samples from people with cancer or precancer conditions of the lymph system. These conditions include multiple myeloma, different types of lymphoma, and adult leukemia/lymphoma. The samples collected will include blood, urine, bone marrow, and tumor and skin tissue. Objectives: \- To collect tissue samples to study different types of lymph cancer. Eligibility: \- Individuals at least 18 years of age who have a lymphoid cancer or precancer condition. Design: * Participants will be screened with a physical exam and medical history. * Different samples will be collected for study. Blood samples will be collected at the initial testing. More blood samples will be collected at different treatment points. Other liquid samples include urine, bone marrow, and any abnormal fluid. Tumor tissue and skin tissue biopsies will also be collected for study. * Treatment will not be provided as part of this study.

NCT07654205
The primary goal of this clinical trial is to test if a smartphone-based intervention is feasible \& acceptable among young adults with ADHD who also engage in risky drinking behaviors. A secondary aim is to test preliminary intervention efficacy. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is the smartphone intervention feasible \& acceptable for participants (e.g., are they responding regularly, is there a low level of burden reported)? Does the smartphone intervention improve symptom awareness, inhibitory control, and problematic alcohol use? Participants will: Attend a virtual baseline visit to assess ADHD, alcohol use, and other life experiences. Complete either the TIPS smartphone intervention or a control smartphone protocol over the course of 31-days, starting the first Friday after the baseline visit. Attend a virtual follow-up visit, where many of the same questions from the baseline visit will be asked again.
