NCT01853748
This research study is a Phase II clinical trial. Phase II clinical trials test the effectiveness of an investigational drug to learn whether the drug works in treating a specific cancer. "Investigational" means that the drug is still being studied and that research doctors are trying to find out more about it-such as the safest dose to use, the side effects it may cause, and if the drug is effective for treating different types of cancer. It also means that the FDA has not approved this drug for use patients undergoing adjuvant treatment for HER2+ breast cancer. Trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) is a drug that may stop cancer cells from growing. This drug has been used in other research studies and information from those other research studies suggests that this drug may help to prevent the recurrence of breast cancer in this research study. The use of T-DM1 in this research study is experimental, which means it is not approved by any regulatory authority for the adjuvant treatment of HER2-positive breast cancer. However, it FDA-approved for metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer. T-DM1 has caused cancer cells to die in laboratory studies. In preclinical studies, this drug has prevented or slowed the growth of breast cancer. The breast cancer treatments (paclitaxel and Trastuzumab) used in this study are considered part of standard-of-care regimens in early breast cancer. A standard treatment means that this is a treatment that would be accepted by the majority of the medical community as a suitable treatment for your type of breast cancer. In this research study, the investigators are looking to see if the study drug T-DM1 will have less side effects than traditional HER2-positive breast cancer treatment of trastuzumab and paclitaxel. The investigators are also hoping to learn about the long term benefits and disease-free survival of participants who take the study drug T-DM1 in comparison to those participants to take the combination of trastuzumab and paclitaxel.
NCT05356117
The purpose of this research is to determine whether a virtually supervised resistance exercise (RE) intervention combined with protein supplementation (PS) is feasible in pancreatic cancer patients initiating chemotherapy and if it will improve skeletal muscle mass. The names of the study interventions involved in this study are: * Resistance training and protein supplement intake (RE + PS) * Resistance training (RE) * Attention control (AC), home-based stretching
NCT02984761
Patients with stage I non-small cell lung cancer have been historically treated with surgery whenever they are fit for an operation. However, an alternative treatment known as stereotactic radiotherapy now appears to offer an equally effective alternative. Doctors believe both are good treatments and are therefore conducting this study to determine if one may be possibly better than the other.
NCT07118124
The purpose of this study is to see if the Zio® monitor device can be worn by children for up to 14-days and to determine if the skin preparation process will provide good adherence to the skin and clear signal quality. The Zio® monitor (Study Device) is an adhesive patch that is worn on the upper left chest for a specified period of time and is similar to a band aid. The Study Device contains a battery-powered heart monitor and will look at the heart rhythm and rate.
NCT03929601
The study is a two-arm, multicenter, double-blinded clinical trial testing sequential therapy with rituximab-pvvr followed by abatacept versus rituximab-pvvr alone in new onset T1D. The primary objective is to test whether the C-peptide response to a 2-hour mixed meal tolerance test, will be improved in participants with new onset T1D who are treated with Abatacept after Rituximab-pvvr compared to those treated with Rituximab-pvvr and placebo 24 months after enrollment.

NCT07420075
The design is an open-ended, prospective, observational, (non-interventional) registry for subjects with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), early symptomatic Alzheimer's disease, Alzheimer's disease, or dementia with clinical suspicion of Alzheimer's disease under the care of a neurologist, psychiatrist, geriatrician or other qualified provider. Longitudinal data are collected from subjects, their care partner(s), and their treating healthcare provider during routine clinical encounters using a structured and standardized data collection method. Approximately 2,000 subjects, with no defined upper limit, across around 75 clinical sites worldwide will be recruited.
NCT06152276
This SafeHeal study is designed to assess the overall safety of the low anterior resection (LAR) standard of care cancer treatment by establishing a definition of major complications. The current literature on standard of care reports adverse events/complications but does not provide a single endpoint that can be used to compare the safety of LAR cancer treatment to alternative therapies or treatments. This study will allow for the establishment of a new single safety endpoint for LAR standard of care cancer treatment.

NCT03829332
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of pembrolizumab (MK-3475) combined with lenvatinib (MK-7902/E7080) compared to pembrolizumab alone (with placebo for lenvatinib) in treatment-naïve adults with no prior systemic therapy for their metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose tumors have a programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) Tumor Proportion Score (TPS) greater than or equal to 1%. The primary study hypotheses are that: 1) the combination of pembrolizumab and lenvatinib is superior to pembrolizumab alone as assessed by Progression-free Survival (PFS) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1); and 2) the combination of pembrolizumab and lenvatinib is superior to pembrolizumab alone as assessed by Overall Survival (OS).
NCT04372953
Premature babies often need help immediately after birth to open their lungs to air, start breathing and keep their hearts beating. Opening their lungs can be difficult, and once open the under-developed lungs of premature babies will often collapse again between each breath. To prevent this nearly all premature babies receive some form of mechanical respiratory support to aid breathing. Common to all types of respiratory support is the delivery of a treatment called positive end-expiratory pressure, or PEEP. PEEP gives air, or a mixture of air and oxygen, to the lung between each breath to keep the lungs open and stop them collapsing. Currently, clinicians do not have enough evidence on the right amount, or level, of PEEP to give at birth. As a result, doctors around the world give different amounts (or levels) of PEEP to premature babies at birth. In this study, the Investigators will look at 2 different approaches to PEEP to help premature babies during their first breaths at birth. At the moment, the Investigators do not know if one is better than the other. One is to give the same PEEP level to the lungs. The others is to give a high PEEP level at birth when the lungs are hardest to open and then decrease the PEEP later once the lungs are opened and the baby is breathing. Very premature babies have a risk of long-term lung disease (chronic lung disease). The more breathing support a premature baby needs, the more likely the risk of developing chronic lung disease. The Investigators want to find out whether one method of opening the baby's lungs at birth results in them needing less breathing support. This research has been initiated by a group of doctors from Australia, the Netherlands and the USA, all who look after premature babies.
NCT05233436
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effects of PF-07265028 as monotherapy and in combination with sasanlimab. The study aims to identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of PF-07265028 as monotherapy; evaluate the clinical activity of monotherapy and combination; and select the recommended dose of PF-07265028 monotherapy and in combination for potential further studies and development. The study contains 2 parts, Dose Escalation (Part 1) to determine the recommended dose of PF-07265028 as single agent and in combination, followed by Dose Expansion (Part 2) in selected tumor types at the recommended dose. It is expected that most participants will take part in this study for up to 1 year with six on-site visits in the first month and then at least twice every subsequent month while they are on treatment.
