NCT00098475
This randomized phase III trial studies lenalidomide and low-dose dexamethasone to see how well it works compared to lenalidomide and standard-dose dexamethasone, given with or without thalidomide, in treating patients with multiple myeloma. Biological therapies, such as lenalidomide, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing. Lenalidomide and thalidomide may also stop the growth of multiple myeloma by blocking blood flow to the cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as dexamethasone, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving lenalidomide, thalidomide, and dexamethasone together may kill more cancer cells.
NCT04916470
This study will look at how participants' daily life is affected by their heart failure. The study will also look at the change in participants' body weight. This study will compare the effect of semaglutide (a new medicine) compared to "dummy" medicine on body weight and heart failure symptoms. Participants will either get semaglutide or "dummy" medicine, which treatment participants get is decided by chance. Participants will need to take 1 injection once a week. The study medicine is injected with a thin needle in a skin fold in the stomach area, thigh or upper arm. During the study participants will have talks with the study staff about healthy lifestyle and physical activity. The study will last for about 59 weeks, that is a little more than 1 year. Participants will have 12 clinic visits with the study doctor. * At 6 of the visits participants will have blood samples taken. * At 5 of the visits participants will be asked to fill in a questionnaire * At 4 of the visits participants will have to do a 6-minute walking test * At 3 of the visits participants will have a test to check the heart. * participants will have their eyes checked before or at the start of the study and at the end of the study Women cannot take part if pregnant, breast-feeding or plan to become pregnant during the study period.

NCT05144984
This study is looking at semaglutide in combination with a potential new medicine (NNC0480-0389) in people with type 2 diabetes. The study is being conducted to see how well semaglutide, in combination with different doses of NNC0480-0389, work to lower blood sugar levels. Results from this study will be used to select the doses of the two medicines for other studies. Participants will either get: Semaglutide (a medicine doctors can already prescribe for treatment of type 2 diabetes) in combination with NNC0480-0389 (a potential new medicine) or placebo (a 'dummy' medicine that looks like the medicines but without any medicine). NNC0480-0389 alone, or semaglutide alone which treatment participant get is decided by chance. Participant will need to take 2-3 injections once every week during the study. One injection will be with semaglutide or placebo and 1-2 injections will be with NNC0480-0389 or placebo. Participant must inject the study medicines themself into the stomach, thigh, or upper arm. The study will last for about 41weeks. Participant will have 20 clinic visits. Participant will have blood samples taken at all clinic visits. At 3 clinic visits, participant will also have an electrocardiogram (ECG). This is a test to check participants heart. Participant will have their eyes checked before or at the start of the study and at the end of the study. Women can only take part in the study if they are not able to become pregnant

NCT02211755
Background: \- Researchers want to develop better ways to treat cancer. In this study, they will give people with cancer two drugs. These drugs have been used on their own to treat some blood cell cancers. Objectives: \- To test the safety and efficacy of the drug combination of bortezomib and clofarabine. Eligibility: \- Adults age 18 and over with advanced cancer that has progressed after receiving standard treatment or that has no effective therapy. Design: * Participants will be screened with medical history, physical exam, and scans to measure their tumors. They will also have heart, blood, and urine tests. All of these may be done by their regular doctors. * Participants will get the study drugs in 21-day cyles. They will stay at the clinic for week 1 of every cycle, then have 2 weeks off. \<TAB\>- Bortezomib will be injected under the skin on days 1 and 4. \<TAB\>- Clofarabine will be injected in a vein for days 1-5. * During cycle 1 only, participants will go to the clinic or their doctor to have a physical exam and blood tests at the start of the second and third week. * Participants will have clinical evaluations throughout the study, including before receiving treatment and then before the start of each cycle. * Participants may stay in the study as long as they are tolerating the drugs and their tumor is not getting worse. * Participants will have follow-up for 30 days after the last dose of study drugs. * The first part of this study tests the safety of different doses of clofarabine and bortezomib. * The second part of this study involves a separate group of participants who will undergo mandatory research biopsies to learn more about the effects of clofarabine and bortezomib on cancer cells.

Brigimadlin is a so-called MDM2 inhibitor that is being developed to treat cancer. Brigimadlin is taken as a tablet. Participants either take a dose of brigimadlin on one day every 3 weeks or on two days every 4 weeks. The participants are in the study for as long as they benefit from and can tolerate treatment. The doctors regularly check the participants' general health during the study.
NCT03146156
Studies evaluating lifestyle intervention in obese women during pregnancy have reported limited success in decreasing excessive gestational weight gain, and have failed to achieve the key outcome of breaking the obesity cycle and reducing neonatal adiposity or birth weight. Although some investigators advocate weight loss during pregnancy in obese women, these recommendations were based on extrapolation of retrospective epidemiological data. Of concern, we reported increased small for gestational age babies and decreased lean body mass in neonates of obese women with weight loss or inadequate gestational weight gain. Based on our research, optimal outcomes from lifestyle interventions are likely to be temporal and therefore must be initiated prior to conception to first improve maternal metabolic function, and subsequently, placental/fetal growth. Several large retrospective cohort studies support our hypothesis. For example, women who lost weight between pregnancies had fewer large for gestational age babies in contrast to women who increased interpregnancy weight. In addition, prospective randomized controlled trials have shown that postpartum weight loss is achievable without adverse maternal or neonatal outcomes, these studies include women who breastfed. Based on these observations, we propose a randomized control trial to determine the effect of lifestyle intervention initiated prior to a planned pregnancy on improving neonatal metabolism and adiposity. Our overarching hypothesis is that the maternal pre-pregnancy metabolic condition determines the obesogenic in-utero environment, which affects programming of placental mitochondrial function and metabolic pathways, promoting lipid accumulation and neonatal adiposity. Our rationale is based on the need to establish the most effective time to introduce an intervention that will break the obesity cycle in mothers and their children. Understanding how pregravid metabolic conditioning improves maternal physiology, and cellular and molecular function in pregnancy will provide the empirical data to support the intervention. We have a highly successful record of recruiting women who are planning a pregnancy, obtaining compliance in longitudinal studies, and in long-term follow-up of mothers and their offspring. Lifestyle intervention will be initiated prior to conception to decrease maternal body fat, inflammation, insulin resistance, and ?-cell dysfunction. Our transdisciplinary team has the required expertise in lifestyle interventions management of obesity, and in human physiology that is needed to determine the effects of these interventions on maternal metabolism and fetalplacental growth and function. We will recruit 200 women to pursue the following specific aims: Specific Aim 1: To investigate the physiological significance of lifestyle intervention in preparation for pregnancy (LIPP) on maternal and neonatal metabolism and adiposity. Specific Aim 2: To determine the molecular effects whereby lifestyle intervention initiated before pregnancy can improve placental mitochondrial lipid oxidation and accumulation.
NCT03528694

NCT06934239
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare patient-centered outcomes when screening digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) exams are interpreted with versus without a leading FDA-cleared artificial intelligence (AI) decision-support tool in real-world U.S. settings and to assess patients' and radiologists' perspectives on AI in medicine. The main question it aims to answer is: Does an FDA-cleared AI decision-support tool for digital tomosynthesis (DBT) improve screening outcomes in real world US clinical settings? This trial will include all interpreting radiologists and all adult patients undergoing screening mammography at any of the participating breast imaging facilities across 6 regional health systems (University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), University of California, San Diego (UCSD), University of Washington-Seattle, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Boston Medical Center, and University of Miami) during the trial period. All screening mammograms at these facilities will be randomized to either intervention (radiologist assisted by an AI decision support tool) versus usual care (radiologist alone) to see if interpreting these mammograms with the AI tool's assistance improves patient screening outcomes. We are targeting 400,000 screening exams across the participating health systems in this trial.
