Periodontal disease in pregnant women has been implicated as a potential risk factor for adverse pregnancy outcomes, including being born preterm, small-for-gestational age, and/or low birth weight. Infants who have at least one of these outcomes, known as small vulnerable newborns (SVN)), are at increased risk of early death and poor infant growth and development. Rigorous, high-quality randomized trials are needed to evaluate whether improving the periodontal health of pregnant women can reduce the risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes in areas like South Asia, where these outcomes are common and neonatal mortality remains high. This study is a community-based, randomized controlled trial (n=2,280) to evaluate a package of oral health interventions delivered to pregnant women in the first trimester until delivery on the incidence of SVNs in rural Sarlahi District, Nepal. The intervention package will include a daily antiseptic oral rinse and intensive oral hygiene education and instruction. Both intervention and control groups will be provided a manual toothbrush and toothpaste. The investigators will determine intervention effects on incidence of SVNs and individual outcomes of preterm birth, small-for-gestational age, and low birth weight. In a biospecimen sub-study (n=200), the investigators will collect venous blood, gingival crevicular fluid, and plaque in early and late pregnancy to explore relationships between subgingival inflammation, systemic inflammation, and SVN types and other adverse pregnancy outcomes. If efficacious, a low-cost package of oral health interventions - including an antiseptic oral rinse, intensive oral hygiene education and instruction, and provision of a manual toothbrush and toothpaste - could improve maternal and newborn outcomes at this critical time of growth and development.
NCT05671510
The goal of this Phase 3 clinical trial is to study the safety and efficacy of the nextgen anti-CTLA-4 antibody, gotistobart (ONC-392/BNT316), in patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer who have disease progressed on anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody based therapy. The study will test whether gotistobart, in comparison with chemotherapy agent docetaxel, could prolong the life for NSCLC patients. Patients will be randomized to be treated with either gotistobart or docetaxel, IV infusion, once every 21 days, for up to 17 cycles in approximately one year.

NCT02595944
This phase III ALCHEMIST treatment trial studies how well nivolumab after surgery and chemotherapy work in treating patients with stage IB-IIIA non-small cell lung cancer. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.
NCT06204094
phase II clinical trial to evaluate node-sparing short-course radiation combined with total neoadjuvant CAPOX and Sintilimab for MSS locally advanced rectal cancers.
NCT05017025
This phase Ib/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of aurora A kinase inhibitor LY3295668 when given together with osimertinib in patients with EGFR-mutant non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to other places in the body (advanced or metastatic). Aurora A kinase inhibitor LY3295668 and osimertinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving aurora A kinase inhibitor LY3295668 in combination with osimertinib may help control EGFR-mutant non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer.
NCT05642195
Background: Surgery is the primary treatment for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that is diagnosed in its earlier stages. But the tumors often return. Radiation and chemotherapy can improve survival in some people who have had surgery for NSCLC, but these treatments also cause serious side effects. A new approach, called immunotherapy, may be a better way to stop NSCLC tumors from coming back. Objective: To test a new treatment (H1299 lung cancer cell vaccine combined with the drug N-803) in people who received surgery for NSCLC. Eligibility: Adults aged 18 years or older with no sign of disease after surgery for NSCLC. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam with blood tests. They will have tests of their heart and lung function. They will have imaging scans. Study treatment will be given in 28-day cycles. Participants will visit the clinic on the first day of each cycle. They will receive 2 treatments at each visit: The study vaccine is given as 2-4 small shots under the skin of the thigh or arm. N-803 is given as a shot under the skin of the abdomen. Treatment will continue for 6 cycles. Blood tests and imaging scans will be repeated throughout the study. Participants will have a blood test 1 month after receiving the 6th vaccine. Some participants may then resume taking N-803; they may also receive 2 more vaccinations at 3 and 6 months after their previous treatment. Follow-up visits will continue for up to 5 years.

Toripalimab is a humanized monoclonal antibody for human programmed cell death protein 1. Toripalimab was approved as a consolidation treatment after perioperative therapy in combination with chemotherapy for resectable stage III NSCLC.
NCT07547332
This is a prospective, single-arm, investigator-initiated clinical study (IIT) designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of nab-paclitaxel combined with local radiotherapy for patients with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) whose disease has progressed after first-line treatment. Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is an aggressive type of lung cancer, and extensive-stage SCLC (ES-SCLC) refers to its advanced stage. For patients whose cancer progresses after first-line treatment, there are very limited effective second-line and later-line treatment options. Commonly used clinical regimens such as topotecan and lurbinectedin only provide modest improvements in tumor response and survival, and often cause severe hematological toxicities (represented by bone marrow suppression). This leaves patients in a persistent dilemma of "insufficient efficacy and limited tolerability", highlighting a clear unmet medical need for better treatment options in this population. Against this background, this study explores a comprehensive treatment strategy using nab-paclitaxel as the chemotherapy backbone, combined with local radiotherapy in eligible patients. Nab-paclitaxel is a nanoparticle albumin-bound form of paclitaxel, with a relatively controllable toxicity profile and manageable administration in clinical practice. Local radiotherapy may create a synergistic effect by improving the tumor immune microenvironment and enhancing local tumor control, with the goal of providing better evidence for a "chemotherapy ± local therapy" combination as a second-line treatment option.
NCT06855771
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of BMS-986504 monotherapy in participants with advanced or metastatic Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) with homozygous MTAP deletion after progression on prior therapies.
NCT05883540
Background: Terminally ill patients often experience significant psychosocial distress having depressed mood, death anxiety, pain, and an overall poor quality of life. Recent evidence from pilot studies suggests that serotonergic hallucinogens including lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) and psilocybin produce significant and sustained reductions of depressive symptoms and anxiety, along with increases in quality of life, and life meaning in patients suffering from life-threatening diseases. Additionally, serotonergic hallucinogens may produce antinociceptive effects. Objective and Design: The study aims to evaluate effects of LSD on psychosocial distress in 60 patients suffering from an advanced or end-stage fatal disease with a life expectancy ≥12wks and ≤2yrs in an active placebo-controlled double-blind parallel study. Patients will be allocated in a 2:1 ratio to one of the two intervention arms receiving either two moderate to high doses of LSD (100 µg and 100 µg or 100 µg and 200 µg) as intervention and two low doses of LSD (25 µg and 25 µg) as active-placebo control.
NCT07545928
Palliative care patients frequently face a "symptom cluster" of pain (up to 96%), fatigue (up to 90%), and anxiety (up to 79%), which severely degrades their quality of life in their final months.The study is built on the concept of passive exposure therapy (VREP), which engages multiple senses to distract the brain from pain signals. By creating an "immersive distraction" or a "flow state," VR can activate the brain's reward networks and reduce activity in areas associated with pain perception. Unlike most existing VR research in palliative care which uses "passive" VR (like watching a 360-degree video), this study uses interactive VR. Patients can perform simple actions-like grabbing or dropping virtual objects-within a calming natural environment, which may better support their sense of autonomy and dignity. Because this is a pilot study, the "Go/No-Go" decision for future larger trials depends on a strict composite of three factors: * Adherence: The patient must complete at least 11 out of 14 planned daily sessions. * Duration: Each session must average at least 7.5 minutes of usable VR exposure. * Tolerance: The patient must experience no device-related serious adverse events and maintain a high average tolerance score (VRISE score ≥ 25).
