NCT00992459
This was a randomized, active-controlled, double-blind, cross-over study designed to enroll subjects with UCDs who are being treated with NaPBA.
NCT04458103
Prior studies have shown that left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation commonly results in right ventricular failure (RVF). Right ventricular dysfunction and failure after LVAD implantation is known to increase morbidity and mortality and contribute to longer post-implant hospital length of stay. Since RVF is difficult to predict and can have harmful effects such as increased ICU stay, adverse outcomes, and mortality, it could be beneficial to preemptively treat patients through preoperative or intraoperative percutaneous right ventricular assist device (RVAD) placement to prevent RVF. This trial will include both a prospective interventional cohort and a retrospective control cohort. The prospective interventional cohort will consist of patients undergoing LVAD implantation at Massachusetts General Hospital. These patients will preemptively receive an RVAD (either the ProtekDuo or Impella RP) surrounding LVAD implantation. The historical control cohort will consist of retrospective data collection on patients who have undergone LVAD implantation in the past. This group will be matched with the enrolled prospective interventional patients. The purpose of this study is to compare clinical outcomes of standard of care treatment versus percutaneous RVAD placement perioperatively to LVAD implantation. The investigators hypothesize that the use of the RVAD will mitigate need for inotropic support, reducing the vasoactive-inotrope score (VIS) by 50%, and will improve end organ function in patients compared to standard of care. Subjects who consent to the study will undergo peri-operative placement of an RVAD, which will be left in up to 72 hours postoperatively. The type of RVAD (Impella RP or ProtekDuo) inserted will be determined by patient needs and venous access and will be up to the discretion of the treating physician. 25 subjects will be enrolled in the prospective interventional cohort and compared to 25 subjects in the matched retrospective control cohort.
NCT02712151
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is associated with considerable postoperative pain and surgeon-administered local anesthetic infiltration is the standard practice for achieving post-operative analgesia. However, recent studies have shown that pediatric patients continue to experience significant pain during the first 24 hours. The investigators plan to conduct a prospective, double-blinded, randomized study where patients will be designated into either a test group receiving an ultrasound-guided transversus abdominis plane (TAP) and rectus sheath (RS) blocks with ropivacaine and peri-portal sterile saline or the control group that will receive ultrasound-guided TAP block with sterile saline and peri-portal infiltration of ropivacaine. The anesthesia team and surgical team will both be blinded as well as the research personal in the postoperative period. Patients age 5-17 and American Society of Anesthesiology status I and II undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy will be included. The study hypothesis is that ultrasound-guided peripheral nerve blocks, specifically single shot transversus abdominis plane and rectus sheath blocks, are superior to local wound infiltration during laparoscopic cholecystectomy for decreasing postoperative pain and pain related behavior and facilitating functional recovery.
NCT04047303
CC-90010-GBM-001 is a multi-center, open-label study to assess the pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD) and CNS penetration of CC-90010 following short-term interval therapy (4 daily doses ) prior to surgery, in subjects with progressive or recurrent WHO Grade II Diffuse Astrocytoma, Grade III Anaplastic Astrocytoma and recurrent Glioblastoma who have failed radiation and chemotherapy, and who are candidates for surgical tumor resection as part of their salvage regimen (planned salvage resection).
NCT04702373
This is a Phase III randomized controlled trial of a passive ROM exercise program that will be performed in infants with HLHS and other single right ventricle anomalies following the Norwood procedure at PHN and Auxiliary Centers.
NCT04707391
The purpose of this study was to assess immunogenicity and safety of MenABCWY vaccine in healthy adolescents and adults aged 15 to 25 years previously vaccinated with MenACWY vaccine.
NCT04677504
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of atezolizumab with bevacizumab in combination with cisplatin and gemcitabine(CisGem), compared with atezolizumab in combination with CisGem, in participants with advanced biliary tract cancer (BTC) who have not received prior systemic therapy. Treatment will consist of a chemotherapy combination phase followed by a cancer immunotherapy (CIT)/placebo phase.
NCT04662151
The purpose of this study is to determine if an investigational drug, AT-100, can reduce the occurrence of Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia (BPD) in babies born premature, as compared to babies born premature who receive an air-sham alone.
NCT02800863
The purpose of this prospective, multicenter, single arm post-approval study is to demonstrate continued safety of the Axium and Proclaim Neurostimulator System for dorsal root ganglion (DRG) stimulation. The primary endpoint is the 12-month serious adverse event rate for permanent implants.
NCT03599622
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of BMS-986165 compared to placebo in participants with moderately to severely active Crohn's Disease.
NCT02963259
This post-marketing evaluation has been designed to consistently investigate the subject's preference when switching from a Medtronic® constant voltage or constant current device to a St Jude Medical Infinity™ or St Jude Medical Brio™ constant current system. As electrodes will not be re-positioned, differences in subject's preference are to be explained by the difference in shape of the delivered pulse or waveform between the two systems.
NCT04093024
The main objective of the study is to evaluate dose-exposure and safety of nintedanib in children and adolescents with fibrosing Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD).
NCT02968355
This study will evaluate the clinical sensitivity and specificity of the FilmArray Global Fever (GF) Panel.
NCT04789616
The CAMAROS trial is a randomized controlled phase II trial analyzing the effect of coupling a C-C chemokine receptor 5 (CCR5) antagonist, Maraviroc (Celsentri), and exercise to improve both upper and lower extremity recovery after a stroke.
NCT01010542
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of ILV-095 when it is given to individuals with moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis. Another purpose of the study is to observe how the drug enters the blood and tissues over time, how the body breaks down the drug and whether or not the body will develop an immune reaction (sensitivity) to the drug.
NCT05070260

The study evaluates the efficacy and safety of a fixed dose of glenzocimab (1000 mg IV over 6 hrs including initial bolus of 15 minutes) on top of the best standard of care.
NCT03439293

NCT05349643
AMB-051-07 is an open-label, adaptive, dose-ranging study with long-term extension in adults with tenosynovial giant cell tumor
NCT04822298
This study aims to evaluate the safety and tolerability of AMG 160 and to evaluate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D).
NCT02676986
Open-label, international, multicentre window of opportunity phase II trial to evaluate the effects of short-term preoperative therapy with enzalutamide (alone or in combination with exemestane) in women with newly diagnosed invasive primary breast cancer. The study has two cohorts: * ER+ve breast cancer * AR+ve, Triple-negative (i.e. ER-negative, PR-negative and HER2-negative) breast cancer Study treatment is planned for a minimum of 15 days and a maximum of 29 days unless there is evidence of unacceptable toxicity or the patient requests to be withdrawn from the trial. Thereafter, patients will either be considered for definitive surgery or primary medical treatment (e.g. neoadjuvant chemotherapy) at the discretion of the treating physician. The effects of enzalutamide (alone or in combination with exemestane) will be assessed on tumour tissue specimens taken at baseline and on the last day of study treatment.
