NCT04877288
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the benefits and risks of conversion of existing adolescent kidney allograft recipients aged 12 to less than 18 years of age to a belatacept-based immunosuppressive regimen as compared to continuation of a calcineurin inhibitor-based regimen and their adherence to immunosuppressive medications.
NCT03186898
This phase III trial studies how well radiation therapy with protons works compared with photons in treating patients with liver cancer. Radiation therapy, such as photon therapy, uses high energy x-rays to send the radiation inside the body to the tumor while proton therapy uses a beam of proton particles. Proton therapy can stop shortly after penetrating through the tumor and may cause less damage to the surrounding healthy organs and result in better survival in patients with liver cancer.
NCT07136012
The primary objective is to evaluate the effect of olpasiran, compared to placebo, on the risk for coronary heart disease death (CHD death), myocardial infarction, or urgent coronary revascularization in participants at risk for a first major cardiovascular event with elevated lipoprotein(a) (Lp\[a\]).
NCT06052267
The primary objective of the study is to assess the efficacy of high dose fluticasone propionate (Fp)/albuterol sulfate (ABS) integrated electronic module multidose dry powder inhaler (eMDPI) compared to ABS eMDPI in decreasing severe clinical asthma exacerbation (CAEs). Secondary Objectives: To evaluate the efficacy of Fp/ABS low dose compared to ABS and the effect on systemic corticosteroid (SCS) exposure To evaluate the safety and tolerability of Fp/A BS The duration for each participant will be a minimum of 28 weeks including 2 weeks of screening, 2-4 weeks of run-in period and a double blind treatment period of minimum 24 weeks, however due to the event-driven nature of this study, the duration may range up to approximately 42 months depending on the timing when the participant was enrolled to the study, and when the study reaches its completion criteria
NCT07335289
PrEP4U is designed as a pragmatic, randomized implementation trial to test strategies that could directly inform real-world roll-out of lenacapavir. By integrating: * Same-day initiation based on rapid HIV testing, and * Choice of follow-up delivery location (home, community, or clinic) the study addresses two of the most pressing implementation questions for long-acting injectable PrEP. The primary hypothesis is that giving participants choice in follow-up location will improve PrEP persistence compared to a clinic-only model. Secondary analyses will evaluate safety of rapid testing, acceptability, and participant costs. Exploratory analyses will assess HIV incidence and resistance. Findings from PrEP4U will provide essential evidence to guide scalable, equitable, person-centered delivery models for lenacapavir PrEP in the U.S. and globally.
NCT05713071
In the proposed study, we will be evaluating the effects of pylorus sparing antral myotomy alone, without concomitant endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG), on weight loss for subjects undergoing the procedure with a history of obesity. This is referred to as Bariatric Endoscopic Antral Myotomy (BEAM). To better understand treatment effects, we will track weight loss, gastric emptying with gastric emptying breath tests (GEBT), and gut hormones (i.e. ghrelin). This pilot, single-center, randomized, controlled, clinical study aims to assess the safety, tolerability, and short-term efficacy of BEAM, in addition to exploring its impact on gastric physiology. This will also provide data that may be used in designing a larger clinical trial that could be submitted for NIH grant funding.
NCT06745024
This phase III trial compares the effect of adding radiation therapy to usual treatment on the occurrence of bone-related complications in cancer patients with high-risk bone metastases that are not causing symptoms, such as pain (asymptomatic). High-risk bone metastases are defined by their location (including hip, shoulder, long bones, and certain levels of the spine), or size (2 cm or larger). These bone metastases appear to be at higher risk of complications such as fracture, spinal cord compression, and/or pain warranting surgery or radiation treatment. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. The total dose of radiation can be delivered in a single day or divided in smaller doses for up to 5 days of total treatment. Usual treatment for asymptomatic bone metastases may include drugs that prevent bone loss, in addition to the treatment for the primary cancer or observation (which means no treatment until symptoms appear). Evidence has shown that preventative radiation therapy may be effective in lowering the number of bone metastases-related complications, however, it is not known if this approach is superior to usual care. Adding radiation therapy to usual treatment may be more effective in preventing bone-related complications than usual care alone in cancer patients with asymptomatic high-risk bone metastases.
NCT06532279
This phase II trial compares the effectiveness of adding BMX-001 to usual symptom management versus usual symptom management alone for reducing oral mucositis in patients who are receiving chemoradiation for head and neck cancer. Oral mucositis (inflammation and mouth sores) is a common side effect of chemoradiation that can cause pain and difficulty swallowing. Usual management of these side effects typically consists of using mouth rinses and pain medications during treatment and for several weeks after completion of treatment. BMX-001 neutralizes harmful substances in the body, preventing damage to macromolecules such as DNA and minimizes free radical-related toxicity in normal tissues. Adding BMX-001 to usual symptom management may be more effective than usual symptom management alone at reducing oral mucositis in patients receiving chemoradiation for head and neck cancer.
NCT07294144
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether tofersen is safe and effective in adults with non-SOD1 ALS. Tofersen is currently approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to treat SOD1-ALS. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does tofersen lower the levels of neurofilament light chain (NfL) in the blood and CSF of adult participants with non-SOD1 ALS? * Is tofersen safe and tolerable for adult participants with non-SOD1 ALS? * Does tofersen affect other measurements such as clinical outcomes and quality-of-life measures in participants with non-SOD1 ALS? Participants will : * Receive 100mg tofersen via lumbar puncture for 24 weeks. The doses are at the following time points: Weeks 0, 2, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, and 24. * Complete 2 follow-up visits following the end of the dosing period at Weeks 28 and 32. * Complete a variety of questionnaires and outcome measurements such as strength and breathing testing.
NCT05646862
This is a Phase III, multicenter, randomized, open-label, global study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of inavolisib plus fulvestrant compared with alpelisib plus fulvestrant in patients with hormone receptor (HR)-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) -negative, PIK3CA-mutated, locally advanced (LA) or metastatic breast cancer (mBC), who progressed during or after cyclin dependent kinase 4/6i (CDK4/6i)-based therapy. Enrollment for the main study is now complete.

NCT06215716
This is a multi-center evaluation of efruxifermin (EFX) in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in subjects with non-cirrhotic NASH/MASH and fibrosis stage 2 or 3 (F2 or F3). The study will enroll subjects in two cohorts for a total samples size of 1650 subjects.
NCT05902169
The brain is protected from any toxic or inflammatory molecule by the blood-brain barrier (BBB). This physical barrier is located at the level of the blood vessel walls. Because of these barrier properties, the blood vessels are also impermeable to the passage of therapeutic molecules from the blood to the brain. The development of effective treatments against glioblastoma is thus limited due to the BBB that prevents most drugs injected in the bloodstream from getting into brain tissue where the tumour is seated. The SonoCloud-9 (SC9) is an investigational device using ultrasound technology and specially developed to open the BBB in the area of and surrounding the tumour. The transient opening of the BBB allows more drugs to reach the brain tumour tissue. Carboplatin is a chemotherapy that is approved to treat different cancer types alone or in combination with other drugs, and has been used in the treatment of glioblastoma. Despite its proven efficacy in the laboratory on glioblastoma cells, carboplatin does not readily cross the BBB in humans. A clinical trial has shown that in combination with the SonoCloud-9, more carboplatin can reach the brain tumour tissue. The objective of the proposed trial is to show that the association - carboplatin with the SonoCloud-9 - will increase efficacy of the drug in patients with recurrent glioblastoma.
