NCT05769582
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of AntiBKV in reducing BKV DNAemia and progression to biopsy-confirmed BKVAN in kidney transplant recipients. This study has an operationally seamless phase II/III design. The phase II part will evaluate the safety of AntiBKV in kidney transplant recipients and establish antiviral proof of concept. The phase II part includes a dose-comparison part to generate additional PK and PD data of AntiBKV. The phase III part will assess the efficacy of AntiBKV in kidney transplant recipients. For both the phase II and phase III parts, participants will be randomized to receive either four doses of AntiBKV or four doses of placebo (every four weeks). In phase II, 60 participants will be first randomized (1:1) to receive either four doses of 1,000 mg of AntiBKV or placebo. In an additional dose-comparison extension, another 30 participants will be enrolled and randomized (1:1:1) to receive either four doses of 1,000 mg AntiBKV, four doses of 500 mg AntiBKV, or placebo. Based on a Day 141 analysis after phase II the sample size for the phase III part of the trial will be defined. Both the phase II and phase III parts will follow identical study assessments and schedules for participants. Eligible participants will receive an intravenous infusion of the investigational medicinal product (IMP) that will be administered four times at a four-week interval. For the first ten participants enrolled in the study, the infusion time will be at least 60 minutes. Provided there are no safety concerns observed with the first ten participants the duration of subsequent infusions will be at least 30 minutes. After administration of the final dose, participants will return as out participants for periodic safety, BKV DNAemia, and PK follow-up assessments until the end of the trial visits, 26 weeks post last IMP application. Regular kidney biopsies will be performed at baseline (prior to infusion) and on Day 141 (8 weeks after full dosing). An additional biopsy will be taken on Day 267 (optional) and if clinically indicated.
NCT06429059
GenieUs developed an analysis platform that will be tested to separate study participants with ALS into four categories based on blood work. These general categories are neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, impaired autophagy \& axonal transport, and mitochondrial dysfunction. Once a disease category is established, participants in this study will receive one of four individualized supplements for 6 months and we will determine whether these are slowing ALS progression: Astaxanthin will be given for the category of neuroinflammation, Protandim for oxidative stress, Melatonin for impaired autophagy and MitoQ for mitochondrial dysfunction. During the first 3 months, participants will have routine monitoring and in months 3 through 9 they will receive the assigned supplement.
NCT05212233
This is a hypothesis-driven, observational, cross-sectional, multi-site study of the financial difficulties experienced by patients undergoing treatment for multiple myeloma (MM) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). It is composed of a patient survey (n=250) (Appendix A), a physician survey (n=100) (Appendix B), and a practice survey completed by each site enrolling patients onto this study (Appendix C). A subset of enrolled patients (n=35) will be invited to participate in an optional second telephone interview (Appendix D). This study will measure the prevalence of patient-reported financial difficulty, specific financial burdens and resources currently available to patients and from practices to assist with patient financial navigation.
NCT07194928
Opioid use for pain has increased drastically over last decade with disastrous results that lead to an epidemic of overdoses and deaths in the United States. Philadelphia has been described as "ground zero" in the opiate epidemic of overdoses and deaths in the United States. Some initial clinical experience shows that medical marijuana can potentially assist patients suffering from certain serious medical conditions by alleviating pain and improving quality of life, allowing them to discontinue opiates. Medical Cannabis is very safe and a viable option for pain relief to improve patients and their family's quality of life. The medical marijuana law in Pennsylvania was passed in 2016 with the hope that this might alleviate the opiate crisis. The opioid death rate in Pennsylvania was 37.9 per 100,000 people. However, medical cannabis is not covered by insurance and is an out of pocket expense. This has been a barrier to some patients trying medical cannabis as an alternative. This can create a disparity in care of chronic pain patients. Methods: Recruitment and inclusion/exclusion criteria: Potential participants will be recruited from an outpatient chronic pain clinic. 40 patients who have agreed to attempt wean down on opioid medication and have a diagnosis which qualifies them for medical marijuana will be selected for the study. In these selected patients cost of the treatment was the main barrier for starting medical cannabis. Each participant will undergo a urine drug screen, a pain assessment using the visual analog scale and pain quality will be assessed using the Short Form-36 health related quality and McGill Pain Questionnaire, which measures sensory, affective and evaluative dimensions of pain prior to receiving medical marijuana and then at 6 months. Each patient will be evaluated by a physician who is certified to evaluate patients for Medical Cannabis. If the patient qualifies for Medical Cannabis the next step is for the patient to register on the state of Pennsylvania medical marijuana website. Medical conditions that qualify patient in the states of Pennsylvania for medical marijuana are Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Cancer, Crohn's disease, multiple sclerosis, Neurodegenerative diseases, neuropathies, chronic or intractable pain of neuropathic origin. After the patient registers the physician will also certify them on the website. After the patients are certified they will apply for medical marijuana card. Once the patient receives a medical marijuana card the patient will start an opioid weaning plan. Each patient will have an individualized plan for weaning off their opioids which is their standard care plan. The patient will go to the select medical marijuana dispensary and will be able to choose their medical cannabis product. The Curaleaf medical cannabis dispensary will have a list of patients and participants will be able to choose from the cannabis products. The patient will be followed up monthly for six months by physician and will assess the patient's pain levels and Medical Cannabis doses and opioid doses monthly. The investigators will also note the patient side effects, tolerance and any decrease in symptoms. At six months the physician will recheck a urine drug screen, current pain level and readminister the McGill Pain Questionnaire and Short form-36 health related quality. The Medical Cannabis doses and strains will be noted.

NCT06291922
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effects of a home-based exercise program using mobile technology on physical activity and capacity, frailty and muscle mass, and quality of life in patients with a newly implanted HeartMate 3 left ventricular assist device (HM3 LVAD). Researchers will compare the effects of an exercise intervention vs. usual care on physical activity and capacity, frailty and muscle mass, and quality of life.
NCT03690388

NCT03570801
The purpose of the project is to perform an RCT comparing patient satisfaction and outcome with or without the use of an expert panel. The purpose is also to create a registry to compare the effectiveness of decompression alone versus decompression with fusion for patients with degenerative grade I spondylolisthesis and symptomatic lumbar spinal stenosis. Primary analysis will focus on the patients' improvement from baseline patient-reported outcome questionnaires. In addition, the SLIP II registry aims to (i) develop an algorithm which could identify cases in which surgical experts are likely to recommend one treatment (i.e. \>80% of experts recommend one form of treatment) and (ii) develop a radiology-based machine learning algorithm that would prospectively classify patients as either 'stable' or 'unstable.' In addition to patient reported outcomes, step counts will be collected in order to determine the correlation of step count with patient-reported outcomes (ODI and EQ-5D) and the need for re-operation. This registry portion of the study aims to prospectively collect comparative data for these patients treated with either decompression alone or decompression with fusion.
