NCT02404441
The purpose of this "first-in-human" study of PDR001 was to characterize the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD) and antitumor activity of PDR001 administered i.v. as a single agent to adult patients with solid tumors. By blocking the interaction between PD-1 and its ligands, PD-L1 and PD-L2, PDR001 inhibits the PD-1 immune checkpoint, resulting in activation of an antitumor immune response by activating effector T-cells and inhibiting regulatory T-cells.
NCT02193542
Anesthesiologists commonly administer pain relief during labor or providing anesthesia for cesarean delivery. Two main methods are used to achieve these goal: "Regional anesthesia" where the mother is given medication through a needle or catheter in her back and the mother is kept awake, or "General anesthesia", where the mother is given intravenous medication and is kept asleep. Regional anesthesia uses a needle to enter a narrow space in the mother's back where medications can be given. In some patients, it takes longer to find this target space in the back. In emergency situation, however, there is often little time to find this space, and the backup method would be the general anesthesia technique. If general anesthesia is required, a breathing tube needs to be inserted to help support the mother's breathing. In some patients, it is harder to insert the breathing tubes, so knowing this in advanced helps anesthesiologists create a safe plan for the patients. A lot of research has been done to determine factors that would predict which patients would need more time and preparation for general anesthesia and regional anesthesia. The purpose of this study is to study how common it is for the pregnant patients who have a difficult regional and general anesthesia.
NCT02283931
There is currently little information regarding the hemodynamic differences in uterine displacement techniques. Previous studies examining the hemodynamic effects of uterine displacement maneuvers have focused on incidence of hypotension and use of ephedrine. Noninvasive cardiac output monitoring (NICOM) and transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) are becoming popular techniques in anesthesiology because they can provide noninvasive, valid, and precise hemodynamic data.There has been no study specifically examining the hemodynamic differences between the uterine displacement techniques using NICOM or TTE. While all three uterine displacement techniques are recommended, whether one technique may maximize maternal cardiac output is currently unknown.
NCT03602560
A 52-week, placebo-controlled, randomized, Phase 3 study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of seladelpar in subjects with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) and an inadequate response to or intolerance to ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) The participants might enter the ongoing open-label safety study (NCT03301506) following this double-blind study.
NCT04986397
This is a randomized control trial to evaluate the efficacy of an FDA approved cold therapy device vs. usual care among children undergoing appendectomy at a large children's hospital.
NCT03452540
The purpose of this randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase II study is to assess the efficacy and safety of orally administered DS102 in adult patients with acute decompensated alcoholic hepatitis
NCT03221842
This is a double-blind, randomized-withdrawal, placebo-controlled study in kidney transplant patients with AMR to evaluate the efficacy and safety of human plasma-derived C1-esterase inhibitor as add-on to standard of care (IVIG).
NCT03208127
This is a single center study for the donation of Hepatitis C Virus (HCV)-positive livers to HCV negative recipient patients, with preemptive, interventional treatment to prevent HCV transmission upon transplantation.
NCT02684032
This is a multicenter, open label, Phase 1b study in patients with mBC. This study will have a dose escalation to identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of the combination of gedatolisib plus palbociclib/fulvestrant and gedatolisib plus palbociclib/letrozole and expansion to estimate the objective response rate (OR) of the combination of gedatolisib plus palbociclib/letrozole or palbociclib/fulvestrant.
NCT03315130
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of RA101495 in patients with generalized Myasthenia Gravis (gMG). Subjects will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to receive daily SC doses of 0.1 mg/kg RA101495, 0.3 mg/kg RA101495, or matching placebo for 12 weeks.
NCT02091011
The study is to determine the rate and cause of device replacements at 5 years post-implantation. It will assess the battery and device longevity of the Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillators (ICD) and CRT-D Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Defibrillator (CRT-D) devices. It will also validate the device survival information given in Boston Scientific's Product Performance Report by comparing the pulse generator (PG) survival probability in the study to that presented in the Product Performance Reports (PPR)
NCT03528109
There is strong evidence that cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) with exposure is the preferred treatment for youth with anxiety disorders, but outpatient services that provide this type of treatment are limited. Even for those who do have access to anxiety-specific treatment, a traditional outpatient model of treatment delivery may not be suitable. Among the numerous logistical barriers to treatment access and response is the inability to generalize treatment tools to settings outside of the office. Patient-centered (home-based or telehealth; patient-centered telehealth closed as of 5/1/21) treatment models that target symptoms in the context in which they occur could be more effective, efficient, and accessible for families. The present study aims to compare the efficacy, efficiency, and feasibility of patient centered home-based CBT and patient centered telehealth CBT with a traditional office-based model of care. The question proposed, including proposed outcomes, have been generated and developed by a group of hospital, payer, patient and family stakeholders who will also contribute to the iterative process of protocol revision. The investigators anticipate 379 anxious youth to be randomized to receive outpatient treatment using telehealth (patient-centered telehealth closed as of 5/1/21), home-based services, or treatment as usual using a traditional outpatient model. Results of this study are expected to provide evidence for the efficacy and efficiency of patient-centered treatment, as well as increase treatment access and family engagement in the treatment process.
NCT04124926
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of vonoprazan compared to lansoprazole in participants with erosive esophagitis.
NCT01005368
RATIONALE: Studying samples of tumor tissue from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors identify and learn more about biomarkers related to cancer. PURPOSE: This research study is looking at biomarkers in blood and bone marrow samples from patients with previously untreated chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
NCT04816916
This is a global study to compare the effects of AXA1665, an orally active mixture of amino acids, compared to placebo, on cognitive and physical function, as well as the safety and tolerability of AXA1665.
NCT03636906
The purpose of this study is to provide critical information on the safety, reactogenicity and immunogenicity profile of the investigational recombinant chimpanzee adenovirus Type 155-vectored RSV (ChAd155-RSV) vaccine in infants likely to be unexposed to RSV and will assess a single lower dose and a higher two dose regimen, before moving to future studies. This study will also assess if there is a risk of 'vaccine-induced enhanced RSV disease' after vaccination of these infants with the ChAd155-RSV vaccine.
NCT02704273
This is a pre-Phase 1 prospective, non interventional clinical assessment study to evaluate XLMTM subjects aged 3 years and younger. Many of these clinically relevant measures have not yet been routinely assessed in this population and may provide important insight on the natural history of XLMTM and for future evaluation of potential therapies.
