NCT05546190
The participants of this study will have AUL spasticity and have a need for botulinum toxin type A injections. AUL spasticity is where people develop tightening or stiffness of the muscles in the arms. Botulinum toxin type A is used for the treatment of spasticity in addition to physiotherapy. This study will ask participants to describe their experience living with AUL spasticity. This information will be used to assess the Arm Activity Measure (ArmA). ArmA is a scale designed to assess upper limb function in people with AUL spasticity. This study could suggest changes to the ArmA to improve its suitability for people with AUL spasticity or even the development of a new scale.
NCT02305095
The response to therapy with a fixed dose combination of isosorbide dinitrate and hydralazine (FDC I/H) is enhanced in African Americans with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) when compared to similar white cohorts. This study will seek to confirm the previous genetic sub-study from AHeFT which suggested a functional polymorphism of guanine nucleotide binding protein beta polypeptide 3 subunit (GNB3), C825T in exon 10, influences the therapeutic efficacy of FDC I/H. This study will initiate treatment with FDC I/H in 500 self designated African American subjects with systolic heart failure. They will be followed for up to two years on therapy. Clinical outcomes (survival, heart failure hospitalizations, and change in quality of life) on FDC I/H will be compared by GNB3 genotype subset. The hypothesis to be confirmed is that subjects homozygous for the T allele (those with the GNB3 TT genotype which is present in approximately 50% of black subjects) demonstrate enhanced therapeutic benefit from FDC I/H.
