NCT05156762
This is a randomized clinical trial (RCT) to assess the efficacy of bariatric surgery vs medical weight loss vs. the "usual standard of care" to optimize a morbidly obese patient with end-stage osteoarthritis of the hip or knee joint for total joint arthroplasty (TJA). The study population will include patients with hip or knee joint osteoarthritis and BMI (Body Mass Index) \> 40 kg/m2 who are evaluated in the joint arthroplasty clinic at Boston Medical Center. The primary objective of the study is to determine if bariatric surgery or medical weight loss is more effective than the usual standard of care in optimizing a morbidly obese patient with osteoarthritis of the hip or knee joint for TJA. This will be determined by comparing the number of patients within each group who are able to lose weight through either bariatric surgery, medical weight loss, or the usual standard of care to achieve a BMI ≤ 40 kg/m2 to eventually undergo TJA. The secondary objectives of this study are to compare total operative time, postoperative complication rates, readmission rates, percentage of total body weight lost, revision rate, and reoperation rate. The ability of patients within each study arm to maintain a BMI ≤ 40 kg/m2 for up to 2 years after undergoing TJA will also be assessed, as well as their level of satisfaction before and after being in the study.
NCT05217641
This is an open-label, multicenter, randomized phase 1 study to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of BG505 MD39.3, BG505 MD39.3 gp151, and BG505 MD39.3 gp151 CD4KO HIV trimer mRNA. These trimers are based on the BG505 MD39 native-like trimer reported in Steichen et al. Immunity 2016. The primary hypothesis is that the BG505 MD39.3 soluble and membrane-bound trimer mRNA vaccines will be safe and well-tolerated among HIV-uninfected individuals and will elicit autologous neutralizing antibodies.
NCT04103892
The clinical trial is a Phase 2, double-blind, randomized, placebo controlled study in Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) participants currently treated with antidepressant therapy. The objective of the study is to assess CLE-100 for the treatment of MDD in participants currently treated with standard antidepressant therapy.
NCT03500328
FDA-approved multiple sclerosis (MS) disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) target the relapsing phase of MS but have minimal impact once the progressive phase has begun. It is unclear if, in the relapsing phase, there is an advantage of early aggressive therapy with respect to preventing long-term disability. The infectious risks and other complications associated with higher-efficacy treatments highlight the need to quantify their effectiveness in preventing disability. The TRaditional versus Early Aggressive Therapy for MS (TREAT-MS) trial is a pragmatic, randomized controlled trial that has two primary aims: 1) to evaluate, jointly and independently among patients deemed at higher risk vs. lower risk for disability accumulation, whether an "early aggressive" therapy approach, versus starting with a traditional, first-line therapy, influences the intermediate-term risk of disability, and 2) to evaluate if, among patients deemed at lower risk for disability who start on first-line MS therapies but experience breakthrough disease, those who switch to a higher-efficacy versus a new first-line therapy have different intermediate-term risk of disability.
NCT02942004
The purpose of this study was to determine if SAGE-547 Injection infused intravenously at up to 90 micrograms per kilogram per hour (μg/kg/h) for 60 hours reduces depressive symptoms in participants with severe postpartum depression (PPD) compared to placebo injection as assessed by the change from baseline in Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAM-D) total score.
NCT04988386

NCT03412773
This Phase 3 study was a global, multicenter trial that randomly assigned participants to either tislelizumab or sorafenib as a first-line treatment for adults with advanced liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma) that could not be surgically removed. Before enrolling Japanese participants in the main Phase 3 study, a preliminary assessment of safety and tolerability (the Safety Run-In Sub-study) was conducted in Japan.
NCT07216521
This multicenter retrospective observational cohort study seeks to: 1. Classify surgical intent in patients with resected Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasms (IPMN) and quantify the proportion of IPMN-associated cancers diagnosed as overt pancreatic cancer with incidental IPMN association on pathology. 2. Compare clinicopathologic features and outcomes between surveillance-detected and incidentally detected IPMN-derived pancreatic cancers. 3. Revise and redefine risk features limited to patients undergoing surgery for IPMN-related indications, identifying optimal predictors of malignant IPMN (high-grade dysplasia or invasive cancer).
NCT03887455
This study will be conducted to evaluate the efficacy of lecanemab in participants with early Alzheimer's disease (EAD) by determining the superiority of lecanemab compared with placebo on the change from baseline in the Clinical Dementia Rating-Sum of Boxes (CDR-SB) at 18 months of treatment in the Core Study. This study will also evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of lecanemab in participants with EAD in the Extension Phase and whether the long-term effects of lecanemab as measured by the CDR-SB at the end of the Core Study is maintained over time in the Extension Phase. Extension Phase Part B will continue dosing with lecanemab in countries where lecanemab may not be commercially available.
NCT06947928
This Phase 2/3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial will evaluate the Objective Response Rate (ORR) of IFx-Hu2.0 as an adjunctive therapy to pembrolizumab in adult participants (≥18 years) with advanced or metastatic Merkel Cell Carcinoma. A total of 118 participants will be randomized to receive either IFx-Hu2.0 or placebo via intralesional injection in a single lesion, followed by pembrolizumab.
NCT05783622
This study is a first-in-human (FIH), Phase 1/1b, open-label, multicenter dose escalation and dose expansion study to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and preliminary anti-tumor activity of JANX008 in adult subjects with advanced or metastatic carcinoma expressing EGFR.
NCT03939689
This clinical trial was done to show whether a radioactive drug (I-131-1095) that binds to prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is useful in treating metastatic prostate cancer that is positive for PSMA. The trial enrolled men whose PSMA-positive metastatic prostate cancer had progressed while they were taking abiraterone. During the trial, all of the men took enzalutamide (standard-of-care therapy) once a day. However, some of the men also had up to 4 doses (8 weeks apart) of I-131-1095 (in addition to taking enzalutamide once a day). At specified times during the trial, all of the men had blood tests (to measure levels of prostate-specific antigen \[PSA\]) and imaging studies (to assess tumor status). The two groups of men were then compared in several ways. The main comparison was the percentage of men in each group with at least a 50% decrease in PSA levels. Other comparisons involved the response of the tumors (as seen on imaging) and overall survival. To assess safety, the number of adverse events in both groups were also compared.

NCT05899673
The main aim of this study is to learn if fazirsiran is safe during long-term use in people with liver disease caused by the abnormal Z-alpha-1 antitrypsin (Z-AAT) protein. People who have taken part in previous fazirsiran studies (AROAAT2001 \[NCT03945292\] or AROAAT2002 \[NCT03946449\]) can continue to receive fazirsiran every 3 months as long as they participate in this study, the study is ongoing or until health authorities in their country approve fazirsiran to be publicly available. The study may also provide information on whether fazirsiran has a long-term effect in reducing liver fibrosis or slowing down the progression of liver fibrosis in people with liver disease due to the abnormal Z-AAT protein.
