NCT07470619
This randomized clinical trial aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of Twin Hearts Meditation in reducing chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting among women with breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy. Chemotherapy-related nausea and vomiting are among the most distressing side effects of cancer treatment and can negatively affect patients' quality of life, nutritional status, and adherence to therapy. The study focused on whether regular practice of this meditation technique could significantly reduce the severity of nausea and the frequency of vomiting episodes following chemotherapy. The main research questions were: Does Twin Hearts Meditation reduce chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting among women with breast cancer? Can this complementary and non-invasive intervention be considered a supportive strategy for managing chemotherapy-related symptoms? Participants were randomly assigned to either the intervention group, which practiced Twin Hearts Meditation, or the control group, which received routine care without meditation. The intervention group received a 30-minute guided meditation training session and practiced the meditation three times per week for two weeks. Nausea severity and vomiting episodes were assessed using a nausea severity scale and a vomiting record flow sheet at baseline and at 6, 12, 18, and 24 hours after chemotherapy to evaluate the effectiveness of the intervention.
NCT06031012
The goal of this study is to compare glutamine combined with thalidomide with glutamine in preventing radiation-induced oral mucositis. The aim of this study is to answer whether glutamine plus thalidomide could improve the median incidence time of grade 2 oral mucositis. Participants would be randomly divided into the two groups above mentioned.
NCT06372899
This between-subjects study aims to evaluate whether e-cigarettes (ECIGS) versus oral nicotine pouches (ONPS) more readily substitute for combustible cigarettes among 200 cigarette smokers. After measuring baseline cigarette smoking rate, participants will be randomized to ECIGS or ONPS and be instructed to switch (versus smoking cigarettes) over a 6-week period. Relative reductions in biomarkers of exposure will be measured. ECIG- and ONP-associated subjective reward and the reinforcing value of ECIGS and ONPS relative to combustible cigarettes will be assessed as mechanisms.
NCT07016971
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a commercially available cannabigerol (CBG)/cannabidiol (CBD) oil is safe, feasible to use, and can help reduce symptoms of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) in adults who have completed platinum-based chemotherapy for gastrointestinal cancers. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is CBG/CBD oil safe and well-tolerated over a 12-week treatment period? Can participants with CIPN use CBG/CBD oil consistently as part of their care? Does CBG/CBD oil help reduce pain, numbness, or other symptoms of CIPN? Participants will: Take CBG/CBD oil under the tongue (sublingually) twice daily for 12 weeks Complete regular symptom assessments and functional tests during study visits Provide blood samples for cannabinoid and metabolite level testing
NCT07214376
The goal of this clinical study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of percutaneous pulmonary artery denervation with the Multi-Pole Pulmonary Artery Radiofrequency Ablation Enhancor System in patients with combined pre- and post-capillary pulmonary hypertension (CpcPH) associated with left heart disease (LHD). This randomized control trial will compare the investigational device (The Enhancor System) to control (medical therapy.) Participants who will consist of patients with chronic heart failure (HF) who are receiving maximally tolerated guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) for left heart failure, are clinically stable, and who have been diagnosed with CpcPH by right heart catheterization (RHC), will be treated with PADN and followed for 3 years.
NCT07465913
This is a randomized, double-masked, single-site, prospective, contralateral eye study designed to evaluate the outcomes of Direct Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (DSLT) followed by the addition of combination netarsudil and latanoprost (Rocklatan) versus latanoprost monotherapy. The study will be conducted at one investigational site. The primary endpoint is the change in mean diurnal intraocular pressure (IOP) from baseline (post DSLT and post washout) at visit 3 between the two groups. Secondary endpoints include the change in mean IOP from baseline at each timepoint (8am, 12pm, 4pm) at visit 3 between groups, and the mean percentage decrease in IOP from baseline for each group. Assessments will be conducted at three key visits: Visit 1 (Screening Phase and DSLT Procedure on Day 0), Visit 2 (Baseline Visit post washout at Week 8), and Visit 3 (Follow-Up Visit 1 at Week 12). Each visit will include specific examinations and measurements such as visual field and OCT imaging, diurnal IOP measurements, and documentation of adverse events.
NCT07468318
Tinnitus (ringing or buzzing in the ears) affects approximately 10-15% of the adult population and significantly reduces quality of life in many patients. In a substantial proportion of cases, tinnitus is associated with dysfunction of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and cervical spine - this subtype is called somatosensory tinnitus. This randomised controlled trial investigates the effectiveness of a multimodal intervention combining: (1) physiotherapy targeting TMJ and cervical spine dysfunction, (2) a structured combined exercise program (aerobic + resistance + breathing), and (3) psychological support (cognitive-behavioural psychoeducation) in patients with chronic somatosensory tinnitus. The study also examines the acute effects of different types and intensities of physical exercise on tinnitus perception, and performs psychometric validation of Czech-language tinnitus assessment questionnaires. Participants (N=160, aged 18-70 years) will be randomly assigned to either the multimodal intervention group (8 weeks, 5 sessions/week) or a control group. Follow-up assessments will be conducted at 3, 12, and 24 months. The primary outcome is the change in the Tinnitus Handicap Inventory (THI) score.
NCT00683722
The objective of the present study is to establish the safety and efficacy of multiple administrations of Prochymal™(ex-vivo cultured human adult mesenchymal stem cells) in participants with moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
NCT03724175
The cause of Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is unknown, but intestinal bacteria-involved in the production of molecules that impact health-are widely accepted to play a key role. A significant proportion of IBD patients with pouches (surgically created rectums after the diseased colon is removed) continue to have inflammation similar to their previous disease. Only a few microbes are known to have the capability to modify primary bile acids (PBAs) made by the liver to secondary bile acids (SBAs). SBAs are some of the most common metabolites in the colon and play key roles in several diseases. In this study the investigators will investigate if ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) may reduce inflammatory markers and improve quality of life (as assessed by validate survey) in those subjects with active antibiotic refractory or antibiotic dependent pouchitis.
NCT07463469
This study was conducted at the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Faculty of Dentistry, Tanta University. A prospective non-controlled clinical study was performed on ten patients with compromised zygomaticomaxillary bone. Surgical intervention was carried out using a customized surgical guide. Pre-surgical planning was performed using computed tomography (CT) scans for each patient. Surgical guides were fabricated using direct metal laser sintering technology. Zygomatic implants were inserted using a guided surgical protocol and specialized instruments. Postoperative CT scans were obtained to evaluate deviations between the planned and actual implant positions. Accuracy was assessed by superimposing the postoperative implant position onto the virtual pre-surgical implant plan using dedicated software. Descriptive and bivariate statistical analyses were performed.
NCT07465016
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the induction-to-abortion time interval between women receiving Laminaria tent followed by misoprostol and those receiving misoprostol alone for mid-trimester abortion induction in women with a scarred uterus. The main question it aims to answer is: • Is the usage of laminaria japonicum as a mechanical dilator for the cervix followed by Prostaglandin E1 more effective and time saving than using prostaglandin E1 alone in induction of mid-trimester abortion in a previously scarred uterus? Researchers will compare induction-to-abortion time interval between women receiving Laminaria tent followed by misoprostol and those receiving misoprostol alone for mid-trimester abortion induction in women with a scarred uterus. Participants in Group A: induction of abortion will be started with insertion of Laminaria japonicum for 12 hours to be followed by prostaglandin E1 methyl analogue, Misoprostol according to the FIGO 2017 recommendation. Participants in Group B: induction of abortion will be carried out by prostaglandin E1 methyl analogue, Misoprostol according to the FIGO 2017 recommendation.
NCT00939627
Monoclonal antibodies, such as cetuximab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Sorafenib tosylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor. It is not yet known whether cetuximab is more effective when given alone or together with sorafenib tosylate in treating patients with head and neck cancer. This randomized phase II trial is studying cetuximab to see how well it works when given together with or without sorafenib tosylate in treating patients with refractory, recurrent, and/or metastatic head and neck cancer.
NCT06043830
Patients with chronic pain who use opioids appear to be at increased risk for breathing issues during sleep, termed sleep disordered breathing (SDB). Treatment of SDB often consists of use of a device during sleep that provides continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) via a mask interface. However, this device is not effective or tolerated in all individuals. The goal of this study is to examine whether a medication called acetazolamide can improve SDB, as an alternative to CPAP treatment. The investigators will measure the improvement in SDB, as well as any change in symptoms, during a 1 week treatment with acetazolamide compared with 1 week of placebo (sugar pill). This study will help to provide data for longer term studies of treatment for SDB in patients who use opioids.
NCT06687629
Concha bullosa (CB) refers to the condition where the middle turbinate's interior is aerated (making the turbinate wide and thick). CB can narrow the middle meatus and the ostiomeatal complex. In adults suffering from chronic sinusitis, the prevalence of CB is approximately 34%. The most common treatment method for CB is turbinate crushing. This is considered a conservative treatment that preserves the mucous membranes relatively intact without opening the interior of the turbinate. Another fairly common method is the removal of the lateral part of the bullous middle turbinate. Opening the CB and removing the lateral part of the middle turbinate can lead to adhesions between the middle turbinate and the lateral wall of the nose. These adhesions can impede airflow and narrow or completely close the ostium or the surgically created middle meatal antrostomy. Crushing the CB is technically easier and possibly a less traumatic procedure. However, it is suspected that some of these crushed bullous turbinates may refill. The development of a mucocele is another potential issue. Crushing might be a better option compared to resection in the long term. Preserving the mucous membranes during crushing may reduce the formation of adhesions, which are sometimes seen after resection of the middle turbinate. The purpose of the study is to investigate the long-term benefits and side effects of CB treatment methods. The study will include 60 patients undergoing a basic Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS) procedure due to recurrent or chronic maxillary sinusitis. The patients will be randomized, with 31 undergoing resection and 31 undergoing crushing. Before the procedure, patients will undergo a CT scan (NSO-TT) and symptom evaluation through various questionnaires. All patients will also undergo nasoscopy. One year after the procedure, the patients' conditions will be reassessed (questionnaires, nasoscopy, NSO-TT only if necessary), including the need for revision surgery.
NCT07461194
This study examines how the timing of intake of a broccoli sprout-based drink (a natural source of isothiocyanates, ITCs) affects physiological responses, recovery, and performance after a standardized endurance cycling session. Healthy, endurance-trained adults (18-64 years) will complete four laboratory visits at the Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences (GIH): one screening/physiology test visit and three intervention visits in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled cross-over design. On intervention visits, participants will ingest either an active broccoli sprout drink (50 g sprouts) or a placebo drink based on alfalfa sprouts (50 g sprouts) according to randomization. The drink will be consumed either approximately 16 hours before exercise (the evening before) or approximately 3 hours before exercise (the morning of the test), enabling comparison of timing in relation to a standardized \~2-hour cycling protocol (individualized intensity) followed by a 10 km cycling time trial. Outcomes include measures of performance, heart rate, perceived exertion and recovery, blood glucose and lactate, and metabolic responses. Venous blood samples are collected at multiple time points before and after exercise and during the subsequent laboratory recovery period, and muscle biopsies are obtained at defined time points to assess muscle metabolism and recovery-related markers. Participants return \~24 hours after exercise for follow-up sampling after an overnight fast, including a glucose tolerance test
NCT06975722

The primary objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of different doses of SAR442970 compared with placebo in participants with moderate to severe Ulcerative Colitis. The total study duration is up to 168 weeks, with a treatment period of up to 158 weeks including an open-label (OL) long-term extension (LTE) period of up to 104 weeks for eligible participants.
NCT07037862
This is a study of the investigational medicine ENTR-601-44 in participants who have Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), a rare genetic condition. The researchers want to: Test how safe ENTR-601-44 is, learn about any side effects, and look at the potential positive effects of ENTR-601-44, compared to placebo. Placebo looks like the investigational medicine but does not contain any active ingredient. In this summary ENTR-601-44 and placebo are both called study treatments. The study has 2 parts: * Part A * A Double-Blind Period, to evaluate if ENTR-601-44 is safe and to determine the best dose of ENTR-601-44 for Part B. * Following the Double-Blind period, participants will roll into an open-label treatment period during which the safety and efficacy of extended dosing will be evaluated. * Part B * To further evaluate the effect and safety of ENTR-601-44 at the dose determined in Part A. Participants will: * Receive study treatment in the form of multiple intravenous (IV) infusions (slow injection) into a vein over the course of several weeks in Part A and in Part B * Visit the clinic regularly for checkups and tests such as: blood and urine tests, physical examinations, questionnaires, and exercise tests. Participants will have a muscle biopsy at the beginning of their participation and after their last dose to allow researchers to compare whether there have been changes in the muscle as a result of the study drug. Participants are allowed to continue receiving their standard of care therapy for DMD during the study, as long as their health remains stable.
NCT07057466
This study aims to improve the early detection of undiagnosed heart disease, which causes serious health issues, hospital admissions, and high healthcare costs. Researchers are exploring how artificial intelligence (AI) can analyse routine heart tests, called electrocardiograms (ECGs), to detect heart problems. These tests can be done using both traditional ECG machines and portable, wearable devices like smartwatches, making it easier for people to monitor their heart health at home. While AI has shown promise using past data, this study will involve the collection of ECG data and subsequent testing of its accuracy in real-world settings to ensure it works well for both doctors and patients. The goal is to see if AI can identify conditions like heart muscle weakness, valve issues, and high lung pressure from the ECG data of patients. The researchers will also compare AI's detections with other blood tests commonly used to diagnose heart disease. The AI models that will be used are being tested for research and validation purposes only. They will not be used for clinical decision-making or providing information to influence diagnosis, treatment, or patient care during the study. The AI outputs are not shared with clinicians and will have no impact on the care pathway. This research will demonstrate if AI-powered ECG analysis - whether from traditional or portable devices - can provide a low-cost, non-invasive way to detect heart disease early and improve health assessments.
