NCT01217411
This randomized phase I/II trial studies the side effects and the best dose of RO4929097 (gamma-secretase/Notch signalling pathway inhibitor RO4929097) when given together with whole-brain radiation therapy or stereotactic radiosurgery and to see how well it works compared to whole-brain radiation therapy or stereotactic radiosurgery alone in treating patients with breast cancer or other cancers (such as lung cancer or melanoma) that have spread to the brain. RO4929097 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Whole-brain radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays deliver radiation to the entire brain to treat tumors that can and cannot be seen. Stereotactic radiosurgery may be able to deliver x-rays directly to the tumor and cause less damage to normal tissue. It is not yet known whether giving RO4929097 together with whole-brain radiation therapy or stereotactic radiosurgery may kill more tumor cells.
NCT02181413
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of ixazomib citrate maintenance therapy on progression-free survival (PFS), compared to placebo, in participants with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) who have had a response (complete response \[CR\], very good partial response \[VGPR\], or partial response \[PR\]) to induction therapy followed by high-dose therapy (HDT) and autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT).
NCT02839733
Background: Cerebral palsy (CP) is the most common childhood motor disability. The neurotransmitter dopamine (DA) is important in cognition and emotions/behavior. DA may also be important in motor skill learning. Genes that relate to DA function may affect a person s ability to learn new cognitive or motor skills. Some children with CP can learn motor skills easily while others have trouble. Researchers want to find out if DA gene variations cause some of this variability. Objectives: To learn more about how DA and its related genes affect motor and cognitive learning in people with and without CP. Eligibility: People ages 5 25 with and without CP who can: Follow the protocol Attend and perform the training sessions Design: Participants will be screened with: Medical history Physical exam Blood draw for genetic tests The study has 2 parts. Participants with CP can join both. Those without can join only Part 1. All participants will have a baseline assessment: short motor skills test and blood draw. Part 1: Two 10-session training programs over 2 weeks. Cognitive training will be 2 sessions at the clinic, 8 at home. Participants will perform memory tasks on a computer. All 10 motor training sessions are at the clinic. Participants will step on lines in a virtual reality environment. Part 2: Two lab training sessions at least 1 week apart. Participants will perform tasks on a computer. Participants with CP may have a brain MRI at 1 visit. They will lie on a table that slides into a machine that takes pictures. They will be in the scanner about 45 minutes. They may have a
NCT06694623
In non-implant edentulous patients reduction of height and width of residual alveolar ridge and reduced attached KT compromise the denture-bearing area unambiguously leading to decrease in full denture stability and retention. Furthermore, in implant edentulous patients insufficient KT is associated with increased plaque accumulation, tissue inflammation, soft tissue recession, marginal bone loss and increased prevalence of peri-implantitis. The present study aimed to evaluate keratinized tissue gain and the wound contraction rate between apically positioned flap without and with free gingival graft strip over a 6-month follow up period. This research was designed as split mouth controlled clinical study included 17 patients having edentulous upper jaw with reduced width of keratinized tissue ( ≤ 4mm measured from middle of the crest to the buccal mucogingival junction or ≤ 2mm from occluso-buccal edge of the alveolar ridge to the mucogingival junction). In each patient, both surgical techniques, apically positioned flap without and with free gingival graft strip, were applied simultaneously. The change of keratinized tissue width and wound contraction rate were measured 30, 60 , 90 and 180 days after surgery
NCT06694207
To compare analgesic effect of adding dexmedomedin or fentanyl to intraperitoneal bupivacain in pediatric patients undergoing laparoscopy. The primary outcome is to compare pain using the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario score (CHEOPS). The secondary goal is to compare the time to the first request for analgesia in the post-operative period, the total dose of analgesics used in the 24 hours (post-operative), side effects, and signs of systemic absorption and toxicity.
NCT06160206
This phase II trial tests how well retifanlimab with bevacizumab and hypofractionated radiotherapy, compared to bevacizumab and hypofractionated radiotherapy alone, works in treating patients with glioblastoma that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). A monoclonal antibody is a type of protein that can bind to certain targets in the body, such as molecules that cause the body to make an immune response (antigens). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as retifanlimab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Bevacizumab is in a class of medications called antiangiogenic agents. It works by stopping the formation of blood vessels that bring oxygen and nutrients to tumor. This may slow the growth and spread of tumor. Hypofractionated radiation therapy delivers higher doses of radiation therapy over a shorter period of time and may kill more tumor cells and have fewer side effects. Giving retifanlimab with bevacizumab and hypofractionated radiotherapy may work better in treating patients with recurrent glioblastoma than bevacizumab and hypofractionated radiotherapy alone.
NCT06694077
This study explores the effectiveness of adding dexamethasone to a suprazygomatic maxillary nerve block for postoperative pain relief in children undergoing adenotonsillectomy. The procedure, often performed to address recurrent infections and airway obstruction, results in significant pain due to inflammation and nerve irtypicallyritation. Traditional pain management methods, such as systemic analgesics, may be inadequate or lead to side effects in children. By combining dexamethasone, a potent anti-inflammatory, with local anesthetics, this trial aims to determine if enhanced pain control and a reduction in opioid use can be achieved. The randomized, double-blind clinical trial will involve 80 children aged 3 to 10 years, randomized into two groups: one receiving the nerve block with bupivacaine and dexamethasone, and the other receiving bupivacaine alone. Pain will be assessed postoperatively using the FLACC score, with secondary measures including time to first analgesia, total analgesic use, hemodynamic stability, and any complications. This study aims to demonstrate that the addition of dexamethasone may provide superior pain management in pediatric adenotonsillectomy, offering a safer, opioid-sparing alternative for postoperative care.
NCT05811637
This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of Pilates exercises in Patellofemoral pain patients compared to hip and knee combined exercises in improving pain, muscle strength, flexibility, function and quality of life in short term.
NCT06695520
A caudal epidural block is among the most widely administered techniques of regional anesthesia in pediatric patients. It helps in reducing the intraoperative dose of inhalational anesthetic agent used for maintenance of anesthesia and in addition provides an excellent postoperative analgesia without the side effects of intravenous opioid medication, like nausea and vomiting during emergence, cardiovascular, and respiratory depression. the aim of the study was to assess, perfusion index (PI) as an indicator for success of caudal block onset in pediatric patients scheduled for elective surgery of lower abdomen, pelvic region, genital region, or lower limbs. with guidance of ultrasonography.

NCT05077917
The study hypothesis is that cromolyn, when combined with standard COVID-19 treatment, will improve patient symptoms and reduce the number of days to improved quality of life. Investigators will study the effects of adding cromolyn to the standard treatment of hospitalized patients with COVID-19 pneumonia and who require supplemental oxygen. Cromolyn will be administered as a nebulized treatment four times a day for four days followed by intranasal administration for two weeks. Investigators may also screen for biomarkers that could indicate inflammatory responses and treatment-induced improvement. Participants will receive either study drug or placebo which will be administered by nebulization for 4 days followed by 14 days of intranasal administration. Participants will be followed while in the hospital and then as outpatients up to day 21 following randomization.
NCT05313633
Plyometric training includes muscle contraction that moves rapidly from the eccentric to the concentric phase of movement while using proper biomechanics. It is an effective neuromuscular stimulus that can improve motor functions of children with cerebral palsy. In plyometric training, muscles exert maximum force in short intervals of time, with the goal of increasing power. Commercially available video games have been used for a wide range of clinical populations with generally positive clinical outcomes. They have been shown to be active enough to provide an increase in energy expenditure and physical activity in children with cerebral palsy. Furthermore, an early case study showed improvements in visual-perceptual processing, balance, and mobility in a child with cerebral palsy.
