NCT02434003
Scoliosis is a three-dimensional deformity affecting the orientation and position of the spine. Locally, the shape of the vertebra is also affected. The most common form is adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) with a prevalence of 1-3% affecting primarily young adolescent females. AIS can either be treated using a brace and in some cases necessitate surgical correction to prevent progressive deformity. Risk factors for progression include female gender, curve magnitude and location, skeletal maturity and growth velocity. However, these risk factors have been shown to be inconsistent in predicting curve progression. Over the past 6 years, the investigators have developed a predictive model of the final Cobb angle in AIS based on 3D spinal parameters. This analysis was based on a prospective cohort of 195 patients that were enrolled upon their initial visit and followed until maturity. This predictive model has a determination coefficient of 0.702. The proposed new study aims at refining and testing the external validity of this model in a larger cohort. The next step towards using the new model in the clinical setting is to redesign the model and to externally validate the model by measuring the agreement between the new method and the traditional Cobb angle at maturity in a larger multicenter study. The objective of this study is to characterize the risk of scoliosis progression based on local three-dimensional vertebral and pelvic measurements present on initial evaluation. Three-dimensional reconstructions will be derived from stereo-radiographs acquired with a new biplanar low-dose radiographic system installed in all 8 clinical sites (EOS system, EOS-Imaging, Paris). These calibrated radiographs will then be used to reconstruct the vertebrae and intervertebral disks at each level as well as the geometry of the pelvis. A series of local and regional parameters will then be calculated from these 3D reconstructions. Correlation analysis will help determine if intervertebral disk wedging, vertebral wedging, transverse plane rotation or pelvic geometry can be used as early predictors of curve progression in AIS. Identifying a new 3D measure of scoliosis associated with rapid curve progression could help predict which curves need early treatment to prevent further progression. The ultimate goal of this research project will be to validate this new predictive model and finally transfer this new predictive tool in the hands of clinicians treating AIS.
NCT04336020
Develop an app-based nationwide study of individuals who routinely use a smartwatch or other wearable activity tracker to determine if individualized tracking of changes in heart rate, activity and sleep can provide an early indication of influenza-like illnesses (ILI) and possibly other viral infections.
NCT04861038
The objective of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of the aerSleep® II device for treatment of moderate to severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) over 24 weeks of home use in spontaneously breathing adult subjects who are intolerant of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) therapy.
NCT04171765
This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of BFKB8488A compared to placebo in participants with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH).
NCT04636892
This comparative diagnostic accuracy study will determine the accuracy of a noninvasive wearable infrasonic sensor to detect the mechanical, electrical, and hemodynamic function of the cardiovascular system.
NCT04536792
The purpose of the study is to assess the safety and tolerability of AG-946 in healthy volunteers after oral administration of single ascending doses (SAD) and multiple ascending doses (MAD) of AG-946 over 14 or up to 28 days of dosing, and to identify a range of doses that are safe and pharmacologically active in participants with sickle cell disease. The SAD and MAD parts of the study will be randomized and double-blinded, and will assess the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of AG-946 as well as the effect of food (SAD only) on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of AG-946. The sickle cell disease (SCD) part of the study will be non-randomized and open-label, and is designed to identify 1 or more safe and tolerable dose(s) of AG-946 with potential activity in the treatment of participants with sickle cell disease (SCD).
NCT04570150
This study assesses the efficacy of sugammadex against neostigmine for hastening recovery from neuromuscular blockade and optimizing pulmonary function in obese patients with obstructive sleep apnea presenting for outpatient surgery. Both drugs are used in anesthesiology to reverse neuromuscular blockade that is given in the setting of inducing and maintaining general anesthesia.
NCT04279314
To investigate the safety and tolerability of long-term treatment with oral trofinetide in girls and women with Rett syndrome
NCT04649255
To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Lava LES for the embolic treatment of arterial hemorrhage in the peripheral vasculature.
NCT04990388
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the safety of UX053 in adults with Glycogen Storage Disease Type III (GSD III).
NCT04593121
The primary objective is to determine the safety and tolerability of single and multiple ascending subcutaneous (SC) doses and a single intravenous (IV) dose of BIIB107 in healthy adult participants. The secondary objectives are to characterize the single-dose pharmacokinetic (PK) of SC and IV BIIB107 in healthy adult participants and to characterize the multiple-dose PK of SC BIIB107 in healthy adult participants.
NCT05001516
A Phase I, First-in-Human, Open-Label, Dose Escalation and Expansion Study of LM-302 in Patients with CLDN18.2-Positive Advanced Solid Tumors
NCT04305275
This is a phase 2, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of SAGE-324 compared to placebo on upper limb (UL) tremor reduction in individuals with essential tremor (ET).
NCT02054741
This cluster randomized clinical trial compares a geriatric assessment intervention with usual care for reducing cancer treatment toxicity in older patients with cancer that has spread to other places in the body. A geriatric assessment may identify risk factors for cancer treatment toxicity and may improve outcomes for older patients with advanced cancer.
NCT03089320
The investigators plan to determine the effectiveness of contingency management (CM) plus stepped care for unhealthy alcohol use in HIV-positive patients.
NCT05877066
This is an observational study, meaning participants will not receive any investigational treatment as part of this study. Researchers will collect real-world data (RWD), based on usual care, to gain a more in-depth knowledge of the natural history and the treatment outcomes of Dupuytren's Contracture (DC) to evaluate the management of DC.
NCT04814732
This treatment protocol is intended to provide early access of surufatinib to patients with locally advanced or metastatic NETs for whom, in the opinion of their treating physician, other treatment options or surufatinib clinical trials in this indication are unsuitable. This EAP is currently available in the US only.
NCT01353209
The hypothesis in this study is that estrogen suppression by an aromatase inhibitor in postmenopausal women with lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) will prevent or delay progression of lung disease and result in a decrease in the rate of decline in FEV1
NCT01564368
RATIONALE: Imaging procedures, such as diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) and dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI), may help in evaluating how well patients with breast cancer respond to treatment. PURPOSE: This research trial studies DWI and DCE-MRI in assessing treatment response in patients with breast cancer undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
NCT00110110
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin, etoposide, and vincristine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Sometimes when chemotherapy is given, it does not stop the growth of tumor cells. The tumor is said to be resistant to chemotherapy. Giving cyclosporine together with chemotherapy may reduce drug resistance and allow the tumor cells to be killed. Cryotherapy kills tumor cells by freezing them. Laser therapy uses light to kill tumor cells. Giving combination chemotherapy together with cyclosporine followed by cryotherapy and/or laser therapy may be an effective treatment for retinoblastoma. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving combination chemotherapy together with cyclosporine followed by cryotherapy and/or laser therapy works in treating patients with newly diagnosed retinoblastoma in both eyes.
