NCT07078383
The Goal of this Clinical Study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Rapidlink device in the repair or replacement of the supra-aortic vessels during open surgical repair of aortic disease affecting the thoracic aorta. This study will collect information on patients who are already having surgery to repair their aorta and who will have Rapidlink device implanted into one or more of the aortic arch vessels. The first 32 subjects enrolled will undergo left subclavian artery repair or replacement, only, with the Rapidlink device. After the 32nd subject, enrollment will proceed to include subjects undergoing any supra-aortic vessel (i.e., left subclavian artery, left common carotid artery, and/or innominate artery) repair or replacement with the Rapidlink device in a planned surgery. After the 32nd subject is enrolled in the main group, up to 30 subjects will undergo supra-aortic vessel (i.e., left subclavian artery, left common carotid artery, and/or innominate artery) repair or replacement with the Rapidlink device in an emergency setting. Data will be collected before, during and after surgery including recovery at discharge, 30 days, 6 months, 1 and 2 years after the surgery.
NCT07392775
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether education plus genetic testing for ALDH2\*2 and ADH1B\*2 is feasible and acceptable and whether it influences modifiable health behaviors in East Asian American adults who experience alcohol flushing when they drink alcohol or have a family history of flushing. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Is providing education plus ALDH2\*2/ADH1B\*2 genetic testing feasible and acceptable in a clinical care context? 2. Does receiving genetic testing results plus education lead to changes in modifiable health behaviors compared with education alone? Researchers will compare education plus genetic testing (intervention arm) to education only (control arm) to see if adding genetic testing improves feasibility/acceptability and supports health behavior change. Participants will: 1. Complete an education module about alcohol flushing and ALDH2/ADH1B 2. Be randomized to either: (A) Receive genetic testing for ALDH2\*2 and ADH1B\*2 with results disclosure, or (B) Receive education only. 3. Complete follow-up measures about feasibility, acceptability, and modifiable health behaviors
NCT01904851
XLPAD is an observational study designed to evaluate the effectiveness and use of stent and non-stent based therapies among PAD patients. The study will create a registry that will include entry of procedural and clinical follow-up information into an online data collection software, REDCAP.Data available since Jan 1 2005 will be included in the registry, until 14,000 patients have been included. The primary objectives of this observational registry study are to: 1. Compare stent and non-stent based outcomes defined as a composite of symptom driven target vessel revascularization (TVR), unplanned surgical revascularization of the target limb and need for target limb amputation through 12 months post-index procedure (Primary efficacy endpoint) 2. Compare stent and non-stent based outcomes defined as a composite of causes such as: death, myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, peri-procedural complications, target vessel revascularization (TVR) and unplanned surgical revascularization/amputation of the target limb through 12 months (Primary safety endpoint) 3. Compare stent and non-stent based change in walking distance, Rutherford category and/or ankle- brachial index (ABI) at 12 months compared to baseline (Primary clinical improvement endpoint) Approximately 14,000patients will be enrolled at approximately 60 sites worldwide. Enrollment in the observational study will be monitored in an effort to achieve at least 20% (and no more than 80%) of the population receiving stents as the initial treatment strategy. Follow-up visits by sites will be reported at 6 and 12 months after index procedure to collect data on treatment patterns and effectiveness, and outcomes. The follow-up procedures are not mandated by the registry protocol. Each site will be encouraged to enter follow-up information derived from clinically indicated follow-up visits. All events post-index procedure till the 7th month will be reported under the 6 month follow-up form and subsequent follow-up till the 13th month post-procedure will be entered on the 12 month follow-up form. Patient management and treatment decisions are at the discretion of the care team per routine clinical practice. The procedural aspects (including selection of stent type or non-stent based treatments) and follow-up are not mandated by the registry and will be up to the discretion of the operator and/or based upon the practice dictated by the clinical care of the patient. Therefore the study poses minimal risk to the patient.
NCT05998018
This prospective, multi-center, randomized, controlled clinical trial is being conducted to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the pdSTIM System to facilitate weaning from mechanical ventilation through phrenic nerve stimulation. Potential subjects who are on mechanical ventilation for at least four days and have failed at least one weaning attempt will be considered for the study. Those enrolled will be randomized in a 1:1 manner between the treatment group that is standard of care with the pdSTIM System and a Control group, which is standard of care alone.
NCT03898180
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of lenvatinib (MK-7902/E7080) in combination with pembrolizumab (MK-3475) in the treatment of cisplatin-ineligible participants with a Programmed Cell Death-Ligand 1 (PD-L1) Combined Positive Score (CPS) ≥10, or in participants ineligible for any platinum-containing chemotherapy regardless of CPS, with advanced/unresectable or metastatic urothelial carcinoma (UC). The primary hypotheses for this study are that: 1. Pembrolizumab + lenvatinib is superior to pembrolizumab + placebo with respect to Progression-free Survival (PFS) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) by blinded independent central review (BICR), and 2. Pembrolizumab + lenvatinib is superior to pembrolizumab + placebo with respect to Overall Survival (OS). Based on recommendation of the external Data Monitoring Committee (eDMC), Amendment 3 (effective: September \[Sep\]-24-2021) was implemented to unblind the study and discontinue lenvatinib and placebo treatment. The eDMC was then disbanded. With Amendment 4 (effective: December-5-2022) second course pembrolizumab will no longer be offered. Any participant receiving second course pembrolizumab treatment prior to initiation of Amendment 4 will be able to complete treatment as planned. Study participation will end after the final administration of pembrolizumab. Participants who either complete 35 administrations of pembrolizumab or discontinue pembrolizumab will discontinue from the study following the safety follow-up visit. AEs and spontaneously reported pregnancies will be reported and followed per protocol. The overall study ends when the last participant completes the last study-related contact or visit, withdraws from the study, or is lost to follow-up.
NCT06965686
By age 45, women's lifetime risk of dementia is estimated to be 1 in 5. Two-thirds of people currently living with a dementia diagnosis are women, and-women make up the majority of carers for people with dementia. Because women bear a larger burden of the dementia epidemic, they tend to be more fearful about dementia compared to men. Women may be especially fearful during the menopause transition, which can impact cognition. These fears can cause significant psychological distress, functional impairment, and avoidance of help seeking. Interventions that acknowledge women's fears and promote adaptive coping during the menopause transition are needed to combat dementia-related fear and its negative impacts. This project aims to develop, and pilot test a brief personalized, psychosocial intervention for middle-aged perimenopausal individuals with elevated dementia risk. The investigators will assess the intervention's acceptability and feasibility for use in this population. The project will be completed in three stages. First, the investigators will conduct focus groups to better understand individual fears about dementia, informational and decisional needs, and strategies to promote adaptive coping as they transition through menopause (case-only, single time point). Second, the investigators will develop an intervention to meet the specific needs identified by the focus groups. Intervention components will address multiple areas of women's health in midlife, including aspects of physical and psychological health, as well as functional health outcomes that have important and long-lasting life implications. Finally, the investigators will conduct pilot testing to assess the acceptability and feasibility of the intervention (cohort, 3-week testing period). This project will deliver a novel psychosocial intervention that can provide middle-aged perimenopausal women with the information and practical skills that can help them manage their dementia-related fears and encourage adaptive coping behaviors. Outputs from the project will serve as preliminary data for a fully powered randomized controlled trial.

NCT06508164
Calcium Release Deficiency Syndrome (CRDS) is a newly discovered genetic arrhythmia syndrome that confers a risk of life-threatening arrhythmias secondary to RYR2 loss-of-function. The International CRDS registry has been designed to facilitate large-scale evaluation of CRDS, including its phenotypic spectrum, approaches to risk stratification, and optimal treatment strategies.
NCT06659549
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) affects millions of elderly patients. When advanced, there is Geographic Atrophy (GA) in the retina. This means that there is an area with a loss of light-sensitive cells, called photoreceptors. That part of the retina can no longer see. Atrophy begins as a small spot in the retina distant from the fovea which is the part of the retina responsible for sharp central vision. The GA grows, and when it reaches the fovea, vision is severely diminished, and details cannot be seen anymore. The purpose of the eDREAM study is to understand if GAL-101 can slow the growth of GA and prevent it from reaching the fovea. GAL-101 is given as eyedrops. eDREAM patients will administer study eyedrops every day. Patients will be assigned by chance (randomly) to receive either eye-drops that contain the new medication, GAL-101, or eyedrops without the active drug (Placebo). Neither patients nor doctors will know which treatment was assigned to each patient until the end of the study.
