NCT02410772
The purpose of this study is to determine whether one or two four-month regimens of tuberculosis treatment are as effective as a standard six-month regimen for treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis (TB). All three regimens are administered daily, seven days each week, with direct observation of each dose by a health-care worker at least five of the seven days of each week. The standard six-month regimen is two months of isoniazid, rifampin, ethambutol, and pyrazinamide followed by four months of isoniazid and rifampin. The first short regimen is a single substitution of rifapentine for rifampin: two months of isoniazid, rifapentine, ethambutol, and pyrazinamide, followed by two months of isoniazid and rifapentine. The second short regimen is a double substitution of rifapentine for rifampin and moxifloxacin for ethambutol: two months of isoniazid, rifapentine, moxifloxacin, and pyrazinamide, followed by two months of isoniazid, rifapentine, and moxifloxacin. Target enrollment is 2500 participants. Each study participant will remain in the study for 18 months in order to include at least 12 months of evaluation of whether the participant's TB recurs.
NCT04956692
The purpose of this study is to evaluate pembrolizumab (MK-3475) subcutaneous (SC) administration as the first-line therapy in the treatment of metastatic squamous and nonsquamous NSCLC by assessing the pharmacokinetics (PK), safety, and efficacy of pembrolizumab SC injection in combination with standard-of-care chemotherapy. The primary hypothesis of the study is Pembrolizumab SC is noninferior to pembrolizumab intravenous (IV) for Cycle 1 Area Under Curve (AUC) and Cycle 6 minimal concentration (Ctrough) at steady state. Participants who discontinue study treatment after receiving the first course of 35 administrations of pembrolizumab (approximately up to 2 years) for reasons other than disease progression or intolerability, may be eligible for a second course of pembrolizumab for up to approximately 1 additional year if they have experienced radiographic disease progression per RECIST 1.1 as assessed by BICR after stopping first course treatment.

NCT02403323
This open-label extension and safety monitoring study is composed of two parts: Part 1 will evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of continued etrolizumab treatment in participants with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease who were previously enrolled in the etrolizumab Phase III Study GA29144 (NCT02394028) and who meet eligibility criteria for enrollment into Part 1. In Part 2, participants who have stopped etrolizumab treatment (either by exiting Part 1 of this study or by entering directly from Study GA29144 \[NCT02394028\]) will be monitored for 92 weeks for progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) and other safety events.
NCT03671018
This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and efficacy of intravenous (IV) or subcutaneous (SC) mosunetuzumab in combination with polatuzumab vedotin in participants with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), follicular lymphoma (FL), and mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). It will consist of a dose finding portion followed by an expansion phase for second line or later (2L+) participants with relapsed or refractory (R/R) DLBCL and 2L+ R/R FL. In addition, subcutaneous mosunetuzumab in combination with polatuzumab vedotin will be evaluated in participants with at least 2 prior lines of systemic therapy (3L+) for the treatment of R/R mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) and in participants with 2L+ R/R DLBCL.
NCT03408314
PediQUEST Response proposes a new system of care that expects to improve quality of life in children, adolescents, and young adults with advanced cancer and their parents. The investigators want to learn whether patients that are cared for using PediQUEST Response do in fact feel better than those receiving usual care. National recommendations call for early palliative care (PC) integration for seriously ill children to ease suffering, however, very few randomized controlled trials (RCTs) have evaluated whether PC improves child and family outcomes. In prior work, the investigators developed the Pediatric Quality of Life and Evaluation of Symptoms Technology (PediQUEST/PQ), a software that collects electronic Patient-Reported Outcomes (e-PROMS) and generates feedback reports. Now, the PI and research team developed PediQUEST Response (Response to Pediatric Oncology Symptom Experience). PediQUEST Response includes an enhanced PediQUEST system (web-based and with an App that allows to answer surveys and see reports), that is coupled with early integration of a palliative care consulting team (Response team). This dual strategy will help to standardize the family report of distress, which will be done through the PediQUEST system. It will also help standardize the providers' response to such distress, as providers will be specifically trained. Pilot work for PediQUEST Response found it feasible, well received by families and oncologists, and potentially effective. Thus, the overall goal of this study is to conduct a RCT of PQ Response versus usual care at four large pediatric oncology centers among 136 children ≥2 years old with advanced cancer. Hypotheses include a) children receiving the intervention will have better (higher) quality of life scores b) parents of children in the intervention group will report better state-anxiety, depression and symptom-related stress scores, and c) intervention group families will demonstrate higher levels of activation.

NCT04508335
The purpose of this study is to obtain preliminary data on the effectiveness, safety, function, comfort, and patient satisfaction with a novel vaginal pessary design for the use in women who suffer from symptoms of pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and have already opted for non-surgical management. Recruited patients will have Stage II POP or greater and will be current users of a Gellhorn or ring style pessary. Following enrollment, each subject will enter a 1-month wash out period in which they will continue using their current pessary so that baseline subjective and objective data can be collected. They will then be fit with a study pessary and enter a 3-month treatment phase. Comparative, subjective, and objective data will be collected at the conclusion of the study.

NCT04378153
Despite the increasingly common use of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulator therapies in treating CF, it is still largely unknown whether or not other chronic therapies can be safely stopped. The SIMPLIFY study is being done to test whether or not it is safe to stop taking inhaled hypertonic saline or Pulmozyme® (dornase alfa) in those people that are also taking Trikafta™. Trikafta (elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor) is a combination CFTR modulator therapy that was approved by the Food and Drug Administration for people with CF who have at least one F508del mutation. The three drugs that make up Trikafta work together to allow many more chloride ions to move into and out of the cells, improving the balance of salt and water in the lungs. These changes result in better clearance of mucus from the lungs and improvements in lung function. Inhaled hypertonic saline and Pulmozyme (dornase alfa) also improve clearance of mucus from the lungs to support lung function and have been available to people with CF for many years. Both therapies are considered to be relatively burdensome and it is not known whether either therapy can improve or maintain lung function above what is already gained through Trikafta use. The goal of the SIMPLIFY study is to get information about whether or not it is safe to stop either inhaled hypertonic saline or Pulmozyme (dornase alfa) by testing if there is a change in lung function in subjects with cystic fibrosis (CF) who are assigned to stop their chronic medication (either hypertonic saline or Pulmozyme) as compared to those who are assigned to keep taking their medication while continuing to take Trikafta.
NCT05835024
Acorai is developing a non-invasive monitoring system for the estimation of intracardiac hemodynamic parameters in patients with suspected or confirmed heart failure, and/or pulmonary hypertension, who require hemodynamic assessment. The device will be intended as a companion test or clinical decision support tool to be used and interpreted by qualified healthcare professionals to aid standard-of-care clinical assessment in identifying hemodynamic congestion and supporting personalized treatment of heart failure and pulmonary congestion. This study is part of the development of a non-invasive monitoring system for the estimation of intracardiac hemodynamic parameters. It will be conducted to collect the data needed to train the machine learning models retrospectively.
NCT05108922
The main purpose of this study is to compare donanemab to aducanumab on brain amyloid plaque clearance in participants with early symptomatic Alzheimer's Disease (AD).
NCT03643965
The overall aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of Nefecon 16 mg per day in the treatment of patients with primary IgAN (Immunoglobulin A nephropathy) at risk of progressing to end-stage renal disease (ESRD), despite maximum tolerated treatment with renin-angiotensin system (RAS) blockade using angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) or angiotensin II type I receptor blockers (ARBs).
NCT01016353
This study is being done to gather data that will be used to compare two different TAC (Temporary Abdominal Closure) methods that your doctor may use. The two TAC methods being compared are the Barker's vacuum packing technique or BVPT and the Open Abdomen Negative Pressure Therapy System (ABThera) developed by the sponsor of this research (KCI, San Antonio, TX). The BVPT is made up of supplies that are stocked in most surgery rooms. The ABThera dressing is available commercially. Neither method will be supplied to the doctor (Principal Investigator), so that in no way would the subject's standard of care be different from what they would get if the study was not being done. This study is observational and only collects data about how the subject progresses after surgery TAC is used. When a study is observational it means that the subject's standard medical care will not be altered in any way, simply watched. The doctor will not change treatment of your open abdomen.
