NCT04233866
This phase II trial compares two treatment combinations: gemcitabine hydrochloride and nab-paclitaxel, or fluorouracil, leucovorin calcium, and liposomal irinotecan in older patients with pancreatic cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine hydrochloride, nab-paclitaxel, fluorouracil, leucovorin calcium, and liposomal irinotecan, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. This study may help doctors find out which treatment combination is better at prolonging life in older patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer.
NCT06999733
The Sponsor is developing KB801, a replication-defective, non-integrating herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1)-derived vector engineered to deliver functional full-length human nerve growth factor (NGF) to the corneas of people with Stage 2 or 3 neurotrophic keratitis (NK) via topical application. This is a Phase 1/2, multicenter, double-masked, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of KB801 in these subjects.
NCT07282834
This research study aims to improve the treatment of Peritoneal Carcinomatosis (PC), a condition where cancer spreads within the abdomen. Patients with PC often experience significant pain and nutritional problems. Currently, there isn't a standard treatment approach, and doctors use different combinations of chemotherapy, surgery, and methods to deliver chemotherapy directly into the abdomen (intra-peritoneal or "IP" chemotherapy). The study will compare two IP chemotherapy methods: HIPEC and PIPAC. HIPEC involves circulating heated chemotherapy through the abdomen during surgery, while PIPAC delivers chemotherapy as a pressurized aerosol during a laparoscopic procedure. Both methods aim to achieve the same goal, but they haven't been directly compared to see which is safer, more tolerable, more effective, and provides better value.
NCT01909453
This is 2-part, randomized, open label, multi-center, parallel group, phase III study comparing the efficacy and safety of LGX818 plus MEK162 to vemurafenib and LGX818 monotherapy in patients with locally advanced unresectable or metastatic melanoma with BRAF V600 mutation. A total of approximately 900 patients will be randomized. Part 1: Patients will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to one of 3 treatment arms: 1. LGX818 450 mg QD plus MEK162 45 mg BID (denoted as Combo 450 arm) 2. LGX818 300 mg QD monotherapy (denoted as LGX818 arm) or 3. vemurafenib 960 mg BID (denoted as vemurafenib arm) Part 2: Patients will be randomized in a 3:1 ratio to one of the 2 treatment arms: 1. LGX818 300 mg QD plus MEK162 45 mg BID (denoted as Combo 300 arm) or 2. LGX818 300 mg QD monotherapy (denoted as LGX818 arm)
NCT06070012
This is a phase II open-label, single-arm, multi-center study of tebentafusp in HLA- A\*0201 positive previously untreated (1L) untreated metastatic uveal melanoma (mUM) with an integrated circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) biomarker.
NCT06598059
This clinical study will test a new type of cochlear implant known as CI632D. This experimental cochlear implant has been designed to slowly release a drug called dexamethasone. Dexamethasone works to ease inflammation and reduce tissue injury, which is common after any type of surgery. The goal is to learn if the dexamethasone in the CI632D implant lessens these reactions inside the ear following surgery and if this makes the implant work as well, or even better, in improving hearing than what would be expected with a standard cochlear implant. The study will be conducted in adults with sensorineural hearing loss, a type of hearing loss caused by damage to the inner ear or auditory nerve (the nerve that carries sound signals from the ear to the brain). The study participants will receive the CI632D experimental implant and will complete tests to see how well they are hearing and how well the implant is working.
NCT06272487
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of zilebesiran as add-on therapy in patients with high cardiovascular risk and hypertension not adequately controlled by standard of care antihypertensive medications.
NCT06799221
The purpose of this program is to provide access to obe-cel treatment for adult patients with ALL who have undergone leukapheresis and had obe-cel manufactured from their blood cells but the product is deemed OOS (does not meet the specifications to be used commercially). The target patients for this study have limited options for treatment and repeat blood sampling is not feasible. The main aims of this study are (1) to provide adult patients with ALL with access to obe-cel and (2) to describe the safety profile of obe-cel (including CRS, ICANS, serious infections, secondary cancers, and any side effects) within the first 45 days after infusion of OOS obe-cel. This study is a single-arm, open-label, multicenter expanded access program (EAP). The patient population included in this EAP will be adult patients diagnosed with recurring or refractory ALL who were prescribed obe-cel as part of their standard of care and are eligible for use under the approved local prescribing information. To be in the study, patients must provide informed consent, be at least 18 years of age, have a confirmed diagnosis of ALL, be medically fit and stable to receive obe-cel, have had commercial obe-cel prescribed by their treating physician as per standard of care, and for whom remanufacturing is not clinically appropriate. Patients cannot be in the study if they have a history of severe immediate allergic reaction to any drugs or metabolites of similar chemical classes as obe-cel, are a pregnant woman, or are receiving treatment in another study. All data will be collected from information routinely recorded in the medical record. There is no formal hypothesis testing. Data will be analyzed descriptively (numbers, percentages and ranges, etc.).
NCT04019197
This is a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial designed to assess the effect of the GLP-1 receptor agonist, semaglutide, on visceral and ectopic fat, insulin resistance, inflammation markers, and the downstream effect of cardiovascular risk in people with HIV. The primary endpoints will be visceral and ectopic fat changes over the study period. The secondary endpoints will include changes in markers of inflammation, immune activation, gut integrity, and cardiovascular disease risk assessment.
NCT02589938
This study is being done to find out what effects, good and/or bad, acupuncture has on participants and their xerostomia caused by radiation therapy for the treatment of the cancer.
NCT03981289
Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy comprise a group of disorders made up of over 30 mutations which share a common phenotype of progressive weakness of the shoulder and hip girdle muscles. While the individual genetic mutations are rare, as a cohort, LGMDs are one of the four most common muscular dystrophies. The overall goal of project 1 is to define the key phenotypes as measured by standard clinical outcome assessments (COAs) for limb girdle muscular dystrophies (LGMD) to hasten therapeutic development.
NCT07434869
This study is for people who have had a lung transplant and developed a condition called chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD), which is a type of chronic rejection. Doctors often treat CLAD with a procedure called extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP), but it can take up to six months to know if the treatment is working. The goal of the study is to find early signs (biomarkers) that show whether ECP is helping, so patients can get the right care sooner. For participants in the study, small blood samples will be collected at three points during ECP treatment and, for some participants, two MRI scans of the lungs will be performed-one before starting ECP and one after finishing treatment. The MRI uses a safe contrast dye to help us see changes in lung blood flow and tissue. Investigators will also look at certain immune cells in the blood. This is not a study of a new drug or treatment-participants will receive the same ECP therapy their doctor already recommended. The study will help researchers understand how ECP works and identify markers that predict who benefits most. There is no direct benefit to participants, but participation may help improve care for future lung transplant patients.
NCT06056791
This is an open-label, phase I/IIa dose escalation and expansion study of INKmune in men with mCRPC. INKmune is administered to patients intravenously over three doses, at least one-week apart. The study will consist of two stages.
NCT02164019
The purpose of this study is to look at two different types of surgeries regularly used for treating cancer that has spread to and weakened the thigh bone (femur). Because it is not known which of these surgeries is best, the investigators will compare the results of the two procedures. They are looking to see if differences exist (after surgery) in function, quality of life, pain control, and possible complications.
NCT02652767
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the effectiveness of GS010, a gene therapy, in improving the visual outcome in participants with Leber Hereditary Optic Neuropathy (LHON) due to the G11778A ND4 mitochondrial mutation when vision loss is present for six months or less.
NCT06665997
This research is being conducted to see if using an injectable contraception, Depot Medroxyprogesterone Acetate (Depo-Provera), can reduce the pain experienced by women with sickle cell disease. Participants in this study will be adult women with sickle cell disease who regularly experience sickle cell pain. They will complete a 3-month "baseline "with no use of hormonal contraception, and then a 3-month follow-up after receiving an injection of Depo-Provera. Participants will complete 6 to 7 in-person visits with a urine pregnancy test, blood draw, and surveys, as well as complete remote weekly surveys and monthly home pregnancy tests.
NCT06668493
The primary purpose of this trial is to evaluate the safety \& tolerability of Nadofaragene Firadenovec in subjects with LG-UTUC. To help with this evaluation, a safety lead-in period will be conducted for the first 6 subjects. Complete response is at 3 or 6 months defined as absence of any UTUC in the renal pelvis.
NCT07098988
This is an exploratory, signal finding, randomized, placebo-controlled, blinded, multi-center Phase 2b trial of the anti GDF-15 antibody Visugromab (CTL-002) versus Placebo, combined with Immunochemotherapy (ICT: Pembrolizumab, Pemetrexed, Carboplatin) in the first-line treatment of participants with newly diagnosed metastatic non-squamous NSCLC. The trial consists of 3 Parts, a non-randomized Safety-run-in part (Part A) and the subsequent randomized Ph2b trial with 2 treatment arms. After the treatment of 15 participants with visugromab at the expansion dose, an interim safety and preliminary efficacy analysis will be conducted (Part B), followed by the treatment of the remaining participants (Part C).
NCT06450639
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of satralizumab, a humanized anti-interleukin-6 receptor (aIL-6R) monoclonal antibody, in ambulatory and non-ambulatory participants with DMD age ≥ 8 to \< 18 years old receiving corticosteroid therapy.
NCT07443670
VAPP-HF is a prospective, multi-center, observational study assessing whether daily voice recordings analyzed by a machine learning algorithm can detect changes in pulmonary arterial (PA) pressure in heart failure patients with implanted PA pressure sensors (e.g., CardioMEMS, Cordella). Patients across three sites in Germany and the United States provide daily voice recordings via a mobile app for 12 weeks while continuing standard PA pressure monitoring and heart failure care. Voice data is analyzed retrospectively after study completion; no clinical decisions are based on voice analysis during the study. The primary endpoint is the sensitivity and specificity of the AI-based voice analysis in detecting PA pressure changes at defined thresholds.
