NCT04179305
When advanced disease progresses, there comes a time when an oncologists must explain to their patients that they only have months left to live. During these discussions the oncologist attempts to explain to the patient their prognoses and what it means for them going forward. However our prior studies shown that even when patients only have months left to live, most do not understand that their cancer is incurable and that it is late/end-stage. Dying cancer patients who fully understand their prognosis are able to make more informed decisions and are therefore more likely to engage in advanced care planning, and receive care what in consistent with their values and preferences. They are also in a better position to avoid burdensome, non-beneficial care. The investigator developed Oncolo-GIST in order to help increase the number of patients who fully understand their prognosis and its implications. Oncolo-GIST is an intervention aimed at enhancing clinicians' communication with patients by teaching them to relay information both sensitively and using simple terminology. The Oncolo-GIST training will provide instruction in areas such as how to introduce the topic of prognosis (describe scan results as "worse"), how to phrase the prognosis itself ("likely months, not years"), how to explain expected treatment outcomes (e.g., "not expected to be cured by treatment") and how to describe expected treatments impact on quality of life - that is, whether the anticancer treatment is likely to make them feel overall better or worse. The training materials consist of a manual and a set of videos that act out situations described in the manual. The second phase of this study will be a randomized controlled trial. The investigator will recruit (n=50) adults with metastatic GI or lung cancers with scan results that reveal progression (worsened disease) on an initial systemic treatment; that is, patients whose life-expectancy can reliably be estimated to be months, not years. Medical oncologists (n=4) who care for these patients will also be consented for study participation and half (n=2) will be randomized to receive the Oncolo-GIST training. Patients will be assessed by trained research staff in the week prior to a scheduled meeting with their oncologist to discuss the scan results. This will provide patients' baseline levels of prognostic understanding and enable the investigator to determine how the intervention relates to pre-post scan visit changes in prognostic understanding. Patients will be assessed post-scan within a week of that progressive scan visit. The assessment battery that will be administered at these time-points will measure the patient's degree of prognostic understanding, the primary outcome of the study. Other outcomes that will be measured by the assessment battery include the patients quality of life, therapeutic alliances of the patient, whether or not a DNR was ordered, the care received by the patient, whether or not the patient preferred greater quality of longer quantity of life, and whether or not the patients received "value-consistent" care.
NCT04571060
The purpose of this study is to test the safety and efficacy of BHV-3500 (zavegepant) versus placebo in the acute treatment of moderate or severe migraine.
NCT02190305
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of two rapid diagnostic tests in plasma, venipuncture whole blood, and fingerstick whole blood. The clinical performance of Multiplo HBc/HIV/HCV will be determined by comparing the results with patient infected status for HIV-1/2 (human immunodeficiency viruses 1 and 2), HBV (hepatitis B virus) and HCV (hepatitis C virus). The clinical performance of Reveal HBsAg will be determined by comparing the results with patient infected status for HBV. Subject participation in the study will consist of a single one-hour visit, at which time blood samples will be drawn for testing with the investigational devices and with approved comparator assays. The test results, which are the outcome of the study, will be obtained only once, at the time of this visit.

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.

NCT03970733
In the Main Study Phase a total of 246 subjects were randomized 2:2:1 into three treatment groups to receive either VLA15 with Alum (lower or higher dose) or Placebo. Main Study Phase vaccinations were administered as intramuscular injections on Day 1, Day 57 and Day 180. In the Booster Phase subjects from the higher dose group who completed their primary immunization schedule according to protocol will be randomized 2:1 to receive an additional higher dose VLA15 vaccination or Placebo at Month 18. Study duration in the Main Study Phase per subject is a maximum of 20 months. Overall study Duration is estimated to be 22 months. Study duration per subject in the Booster Phase is a maximum of approximately 13 months. Study duration per subject in the Main Study Phase and Booster Phase together is estimated to be a maximum of approximately 33 months. Overall study duration (i.e., First-Subject-In to Last-Subject Out/ end of Booster Phase) is estimated to be approximately 37 months.
NCT04557189
Some adults are at a higher risk of feeling sick (nausea) or being sick (vomiting) after they have surgery. In this study, these adults will have planned surgery. The main aim of this study is to learn if TAK-951 stops these adults from getting nausea or vomiting after surgery. This will be compared with another medicine called ondansetron. Another aim is to check for side effects from the study medicines. Before surgery, the study doctor will check who can take part in this study. Those who can take part will be picked for either Treatment Group A or Treatment Group B by chance. * Treatment Group A: Just before surgery, participants will receive a placebo slowly through a vein (infusion). Just before the end of the surgery, they will receive TAK-951 as an injection under the skin. * Treatment Group B: Just before surgery, participants will receive ondansetron slowly through a vein (infusion). Just before the end of the surgery, they will receive a placebo as an injection under the skin. In this study, a placebo will look like TAK-951 but will not have any medicine in it. Participants will not know which study medicines they received, or in which order, nor will their study doctors or surgeons. This is to help make sure the results are more reliable. Participants will stay in the hospital for 24 hours after their surgery so that the study doctors can check for nausea and vomiting. The study doctors will also check for side effects from the study medicines. Participants will visit the hospital for a check-up 14 days later.
NCT02658032

NCT01344018
RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Giving radiation therapy before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed. It is not yet known whether surgery is more effective with or without radiation therapy in treating nonmetastatic retroperitoneal soft tissue sarcoma. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying radiation therapy followed by surgery to see how well it works compared with surgery alone in treating patients with previously untreated nonmetastatic retroperitoneal soft tissue sarcoma.
