NCT04077411
Approaches and Decisions in Acute Pediatric TBI Trial (ADAPT) is an international research study designed to evaluate the impact of interventions on the outcomes of children with severe traumatic brain injury. Pediatric traumatic brain injury (TBI) is the leading killer of children, resulting in more than 7000 deaths and $2 billion in acute care costs each year. Despite this large burden of disease, advances in the field have been limited due to weak evidenced-based guidelines and the limitations of randomized, controlled trials (RCTs) to demonstrate efficacy of single treatment strategies due to wide treatment variability. ADAPT is a practical study design in a novel approach - an observational cohort study designed to evaluate the association of 6 aspects of pediatric TBI care with outcomes using statistical modeling to correct for confounding variables. Completion of this study will provide compelling evidence to change clinical practices, provide evidence for new Level II recommendations for future guidelines and lead to improved research protocols that would limit variability in TBI treatments - helping children immediately through better clinical practices and ultimately through more effective investigation.
NCT05096754
Post-approval observational study of subjects that were enrolled and transplanted in the OCS Liver PROTECT CAP.
NCT05282654
This study aims to predict and minimize post-discharge adverse events (AEs) during care transitions through early identification and escalation of patient-reported symptoms to inpatient and ambulatory clinicians by way of predictive algorithms and clinically integrated digital health apps. We will (1) develop and prospectively validate a predictive model of post-discharge AEs for patients with multiple chronic conditions (MCC); (2) combine, adapt, extend, and iteratively refine our EHR-integrated digital health infrastructure in a series of design sessions with patient and clinician participants; (3) conduct a RCT to evaluate the impact of ePRO monitoring on post-discharge AEs for MCC patients discharged from the general medicine service across Brigham Health; and (4) use mixed methods to evaluate barriers and facilitators of implementation and use as we develop a plan for sustainability, scale, and dissemination.
NCT02608268
The purpose of this first-in-human study of MBG453 was to characterize the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and anti-tumor activity of MBG453 administered i.v. as a single agent or in combination with PDR001 or decitabine in adult patients with advanced solid tumors
NCT04359901
Objectives: To determine whether blockade of IL-6R is beneficial in patients with COVID-19 infection of moderate severity. Research Design: Randomized, controlled trial. Two-arm trial comparing standard care alone to standard care with addition of sarilumab (anti-IL6R). The trial will use a randomized play-the-winner design, in which randomization becomes weighted toward the arm that was more effective in previous subjects in the trial. Methodology Hospitalized patients meeting clinical criteria for moderate disease and testing positive for coronavirus infection. Interventions: sarilumab, 400 mg subcutaneous injection. Standard care is not pre-specified, may vary among patients, and may include agents with anti-viral activity, such as remdesivir or hydroxychloroquine, among others. Up to 120 patients, primary outcome intubation or death within 14 days. All data will be extracted remotely from the electronic health record (EHR). Clinical Implications: The study has potential to establish IL-6R blockade, delivered subcutaneously, as standard of care in reducing progression to critical illness in patients with moderate COVID-19 disease.
NCT00385697
The primary purpose of this protocol is to assess the efficacy, tolerability, and safety of MGA031 when administered according to 3 different MGA031 dosing regimens in children and adults with recent-onset (diagnosis within past 12 weeks) type 1 diabetes mellitus. All regimens will be administered as an addition to insulin and other standard of care treatments. Efficacy will be defined primarily by the capacity of MGA031 to markedly reduce typical insulin requirements while maintaining relatively normal blood sugar levels. Other studies involving the study drug use the name hOKT3γ1 (Ala-Ala). MGA031, a humanized monoclonal antibody, is the name used for hOKT3γ1 (Ala-Ala) that is produced by MacroGenics, Inc. The United States Adopted Name (USAN) for MGA031 is teplizumab.
NCT04177095
* To determine the utility of novel blood-based immune monitoring tools (Allosure and Trugraf) to facilitate belatacept monotherapy. * To determine the percent of belatacept-treated renal transplant patients that can be safely converted to belatacept monotherapy.
NCT04596267
This is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, crossover design trial that will test the effect of pitolisant on alcohol self-administration and craving following a priming dose of alcohol. The specific objective of this proposal is to determine whether pitolisant has effects on alcohol consumption and craving
NCT03599544
This study evaluates the effects of robot-assisted therapy for adults more than 6 months after stroke on upper limb functioning. Half of the participants will receive robot-assisted therapy for the arm affected by stroke, and the other half will receive robot-assisted therapy plus training in how to use the weaker arm during every day activities.
NCT04247334
Inhibitory control is relevant to many clinical disorders, including substance abuse/dependence, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder. This proposal is designed to assess brain networks related to response inhibition in healthy young adults, and use neuromodulation to change these networks and behavioral performance on a response inhibition task. Having an understanding of the brain mechanisms involved in response inhibition may enable us to improve pre-existing treatments for disorders with inhibitory control difficulties.
NCT05625373
The study will be a pilot randomized control trial with a 1:1 patient randomization of vancomycin powder placement at the time of surgery (compared to no vancomycin placement) with the goal of reducing postoperative complications in patients undergoing an inguinal lymph node dissection for vulvar cancer. The primary objective is to measure the composite rate of postoperative complications within 30 days of inguinal lymph node dissection in patients with vulvar cancer.
NCT02067832
Chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) can be hard to diagnose, difficult to manage and contributes significantly to morbidity and mortality in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation patients. The research will look into identifying and validating cGVHD biological indicators (=bio-markers) which will be evaluated whether they can predict a future development of the disease. The study hypothesis is that a number of previously reported cGVHD bio-markers, known to be present at the time of cGVHD diagnosis, will also be present at earlier time points, before cGVHD develops. Following validation, the bio-markers will be beneficial for finding those patients who are in higher risk to develop cGVHD. By identifying the higher-risk group, which is more likely to develop cGVHD, a pre-emptive therapy might be applied in order to prevent or reduce the prevalence of the disease.
NCT04382326

NCT02870920
The standard or usual treatment for this disease is treatment with drugs and other treatments that may help to make a patient better or may improve their quality of life. This treatment is known as "best supportive care" (BSC). Although patients with best supportive care can feel better for some months, the cancer usually continues to grow.
NCT04450732
Phase I Dose Finding Study for GQ1001 in Patients with HER2-Positive Advanced Solid Tumors
NCT05052333
This is an observational study examining the psychosocial impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic in seven low-and-middle income countries (Indonesia, Iran, Iraq, Malaysia, Pakistan, Somaliland, and Turkiye). The data was obtained on standardised measures of wellbeing (WHO Well-Being Index), psychological distress (Kessler 10), post-traumatic stress (PTSD Checklist for DSM-5), post-traumatic growth (Posttraumatic Growth Inventory), and a novel pandemic-related stress (COVID Psychosocial Impacts Scale). Data was collected employing either a unilingual (in native language) or bilingual online survey (with English as a second language) from participants (N=2574) aged 18 and above using a non-probability convenient sampling. The findings enabled us to examine the psychosocial impacts of COVID-19, validate the translations of the CPIS and standardized measures; and determine the trajectory of study variables with pandemic exposure.
NCT02871856
People who may be at increased risk of lung cancer due to age and smoking history will be invited to participate in this international study to determine the best way of using computed tomography (CT) of the chest to screen for early lung cancer. Overseas data show that CT screening (screening tests can find diseases early, when they're easier to treat) can reduce deaths from lung cancer and this study will help determine who is most likely benefit from screening.
