This is a phase 2b, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study investigating the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of Taplucainium Inhalation Powder (NOC-110) once daily in adults with refractory or unexplained chronic cough.
NCT04973163
This study is open to adults with different types of advanced or metastatic cancer (including lung cancer, colorectal cancer, pancreatic cancer, and bile duct cancer). This study is for people for whom previous treatment was not successful or no treatment exists. People who have a tumour with a KRAS mutation can participate in the study. A KRAS mutation makes tumours grow faster. BI 1823911 and BI 1701963 are medicines that may turn off KRAS, each in a different way. In this study, BI 1823911 is given to people for the first time. The purpose of this study is to find the highest dose of BI 1823911 that people can tolerate when taken alone and together with BI 1701963. The most suitable dose is used to find out whether BI 1823911 alone and in combination with BI 1701963 can make tumours shrink. Participants can stay in the study as long as they benefit from treatment and can tolerate it. During this time, participants take tablets of BI 1823911 alone or in combination with BI 1701963 once a day. The doctors regularly monitor the size of the tumour. Doctors also regularly record any unwanted effects and check participant's health.
NCT03147612
This phase II trial studies how well low-intensity chemotherapy and ponatinib work in treating patients with Philadelphia chromosome-positive and/or BCR-ABL positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia that may have come back or is not responding to treatment. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, vincristine, dexamethasone, methotrexate, and cytarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Immunotherapy with rituximab and blinatumomab, may induce changes in body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Ponatinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Granulocyte colony stimulating factor helps the bone marrow make recover after treatment. Giving low-intensity chemotherapy, ponatinib, and blinatumomab may work better in treating patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
NCT07246837
Urine culture is the most common microbiological test in the outpatient setting in the United States. Unfortunately, contamination during collection is prevalent and undermines test accuracy, leading to incorrect diagnosis, unnecessary treatment, wasted laboratory resources, and inflated costs. Unnecessary antibiotic treatment increases the risk of developing antimicrobial resistance, one of the most serious threats to patients and public health. The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether a bilingual (English and Spanish) educational intervention, an animated video and pictorial flyer, can reduce urine culture contamination and associated inappropriate antibiotic use in adult patients visiting safety-net primary care clinics. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does providing patients with a bilingual educational intervention reduce urine culture contamination rates? 2. Does the intervention lead to fewer unnecessary urinary antibiotic prescriptions? 3. Does providing patients with a bilingual educational intervention reduce contaminated urinalyses? Researchers will compare patients randomized to receive the educational intervention (video and flyer) to those receiving usual care to see if the intervention improves urine collection accuracy and reduces inappropriate antibiotic use. Participants will watch a short, animated video with step-by-step instructions for proper midstream clean-catch urine (MSCC) collection, receive a pictorial flyer (with stills from the video) reinforcing the instructions, and provide a urine sample for culture. Hypothesis: patients who receive the educational intervention will have: lower urine culture contamination rates (primary outcome), fewer urinary antibiotic prescriptions (secondary outcome), and fewer contaminated urinalyses (secondary outcome). The objectives are to (1) develop educational tools: Create an animated video and pictorial flyer with step-by-step urine collection instructions for women and men, developed through an iterative, stakeholder-engaged process, (2) assess acceptability: Use mixed methods (quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews) to evaluate and refine the tools for usability and cultural/linguistic appropriateness, and (3) test effectiveness: Conduct a randomized controlled trial to assess the intervention's impact on urine contamination rates, antibiotic prescribing, and patient satisfaction.
NCT05139602
Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic and often painful inflammatory skin disease which includes the forming of lumps, abscesses and scars in areas of the skin such as under the breasts, under armpits, inner thighs, groin and buttocks. Despite the clinical benefit anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) therapy offers to patients with HS, there remains a significant unmet medical need for patients who fail to achieve adequate benefit with anti-TNF therapy. This study will compare lutikizumab (ABT-981) versus placebo for the treatment of adult participants with moderate to severe HS who have failed anti-TNF therapy. Lutikizumab (ABT-981) is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of HS. In the Main Study, participants will be put in 1 of 4 groups, called treatment arms. There is a 1 in 4 chance that participants will be assigned to placebo. Around 160 adult participants with moderate to severe HS who have failed anti-TNF therapy will be enrolled in the study at approximately 50 sites worldwide. In the Sub-study, participants will be put in 1 of 2 groups, called treatment arms. Both arms will receive treatment at different dosing intervals. Around 40 adult participants with moderate to severe HS who are naïve to biologic therapy will be enrolled in the study at approximately 20 sites. In the Main Study, participants will receive subcutaneous injections of lutikizumab (ABT-981) or placebo every week for 16 weeks. In the Sub-study, participants will receive subcutaneous injections of lutikizumab (ABT-981) every week for the first 15 weeks, then either every week or every other week for 36 weeks. There will be an optional Long Term Extension (LTE) for participants who completed Week 52 of the Sub-study and, as confirmed by the investigator, have shown a therapeutic benefit to study drug. Participants would then received lutikizumab using the same assigned dosing regimen as that from Period 2 of the Sub-study for an additional 104 weeks. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires and diaries.
NCT06284460
The goal of Part 1 of this clinical research study is to find the highest tolerable dose of ASTX029 that can be given in combination with ASTX727 to participants who have RAS-mutant MDS or MDS/MPN. The goal of Part 2 of this clinical research study is to learn if the dose of ASTX029 found in Part 1 can help to control the disease when used in combination with ASTX727.
NCT05132322
The purpose of this study is to identify the optimal deimplementation strategies for an overused practice: continuous pulse oximetry monitoring of children hospitalized with bronchiolitis who are not receiving supplemental oxygen.
NCT04160052
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of venetoclax when given together with azacitidine in treating patients with high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome that has come back (recurrent) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as venetoclax and azacitidine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading.
NCT02875314
This is a prospective randomized clinical trial, to determine whether dose-intensive tandem Consolidation, in a randomized comparison with single cycle Consolidation, provides an event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS). The study population will be high-risk patients (non-Wnt and non-Shh sub-groups) with medulloblastoma, and for all patients with central nervous system (CNS) embryonal tumors completing "Head Start 4" Induction. This study will further determine whether the additional labor intensity (duration of hospitalizations and short-term and long-term morbidities) associated with the tandem treatment is justified by the improvement in outcome. It is expected that the tandem (3 cycles) Consolidation regimen will produce a superior outcome compared to the single cycle Consolidation, given the substantially higher dose intensity of the tandem regimen, without significant addition of either short-term or long-term morbidities.
NCT06360354
The study aims to determine maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or recommended combination dose of the MTA-cooperative PRMT5 inhibitor AMG 193 administered in combination with other therapies in adult participants with metastatic or locally advanced methylthioadenosine phosphorylase (MTAP)-deleted gastrointestinal, biliary tract, or pancreatic cancers. The study also aims to determine the safety profile of AMG 193 administered in combination with other therapies in adult participants with metastatic or locally advanced MTAP-deleted gastrointestinal, biliary tract, or pancreatic cancers.
NCT04767373
The primary objectives of this phase 2b/3 double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study are to evaluate the efficacy and safety of clesrovimab in healthy pre-term and full-term infants. It is hypothesized that clesrovimab will reduce the incidence of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)-associated medically attended lower respiratory infection (MALRI) from Days 1 through 150 postdose compared to placebo.
NCT07160179
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the abnormal growth of new blood vessels in the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye called the retina. Geographic Atrophy (GA) is an advanced form of dry AMD. The purpose of this study is to assess the adverse events and how intravitreal ABBV-6628 moves through the body of adult participants with secondary to age-related macular degeneration ABBV-6628 is an investigational monoclonal antibody fragment being developed for the treatment of geographic atrophy (GA) secondary to (AMD) age-related macular degeneration. Participants in the Stage 1 part will be placed in 1 of 4 groups, called treatment arms. Participants in Stage 2 will be placed into 1 of 2 groups. Each group receives different treatment. Adult participants aged 50 and older years with a diagnosis GA secondary to age-related macular degeneration will be enrolled. Around 66 participants will be enrolled in the study at approximately 27 sites across the US. Participants in Stage 1 will be given ABBV-6628 as an intravitreal injection (injection into the jelly-like tissue that fills the eyeball injection) with dose escalation. Participants in Stage 2 will receive ABBV-6628 or SYFOVRE, an approved treatment for geographic atrophy, administered as per the FDA-approved label. The treatment duration is approximately 22 months and 3 months of follow-up. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular weekly visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.
NCT07206121
This study aims to assess the safety and clinical accuracy of the SIRA-1000, SIRA® RFA Electrosurgical Device in ablating margins post-lumpectomy in patients undergoing breast conserving surgery for breast cancer. Radiofrequency ablation, or RFA, uses radio waves to create heat, that in turn, causes deliberate controlled damage to the tissue surrounding where the tumor was located. You may hear your doctor refer to this as the 'margins'. Your doctor is using this treatment to help destroy remaining cancer cells in the margins around the site of the lump.

The purpose of this first-in-human study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and preliminary efficacy of AMG 410 when administered alone or in combination with other agents in participants with advanced or metastatic solid tumors harboring KRAS alterations. This is a dose-escalation study in which participants will be assigned to multiple dose levels (DLs) of AMG 410, either as monotherapy or in combination with other agents, followed by expansion cohorts. The goal is to determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD)-the highest dose with acceptable safety and manageable side effects-or the Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) of AMG 410 in adult participants with KRAS-altered advanced or metastatic solid tumors.
NCT07396376
ELU42 01 01 (SuperHealer42) is a Phase I/IIA open label study sponsored by Eluciderm, Inc. that evaluates the safety and preliminary effectiveness of ELU42, a topical small molecule designed to modulate Wnt signaling, for the treatment of chronic diabetic foot ulcers (DFU). ELU42 combines a tankyrase inhibitor (XAV939) with a novel derivatized hyaluronic acid excipient (DHA77) and is applied as a topical spray to the index ulcer. Fifteen adults with Wagner grade 1-2 diabetic foot ulcers that have been present for at least 4 weeks and up to 52 weeks will be enrolled across up to four U.S. clinical sites. After a 2 week run in period during which standard of care (SOC) is provided (off loading, dressings, and debridement), subjects will receive ELU42 applied on site by trained study staff or the investigator three times per week (Monday, Wednesday, Friday) for six weeks (up to 18 applications). Subjects will be followed weekly during treatment and for up to 6 weeks after the final dose; additional Healing Confirmation visits are scheduled if the wound closes to evaluate the subjects over a course of a 3 month period. The study's co-primary objectives are to assess safety (incidence and severity of adverse events and infections) and to measure percent area reduction (PAR) of the index ulcer at Weeks 4 and 6. Efficacy assessments will be performed by the site investigator using direct two axis planimetry and by automated evaluation using the Tissue Analytics platform (surface area, volume, and PAR). Secondary and exploratory assessments include patient reported outcomes (Wound Q and SF 36), frequency of complete wound healing, wound hydration metrics, and pharmacokinetic sampling in a subset of subjects. Contact information for potential participants and referring clinicians is available at each participating site.
NCT03949855
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of belimumab and intravenous rituximab co-administration at inducing a complete or partial remission (CR or PR) compared to rituximab alone in participants with primary membranous nephropathy. Background: Primary membranous nephropathy (MN) is among the most common causes of nephrotic syndrome in adults. MN affects individuals of all ages and races. The peak incidence of MN is in the fifth decade of life. Primary MN is recognized to be an autoimmune disease, a disease where the body's own immune system causes damage to kidneys. This damage can cause the loss of too much protein in the urine. Drugs used to treat MN aim to reduce the attack by one's own immune system on the kidneys by blocking inflammation and reducing the immune system's function. These drugs can have serious side effects and often do not cure the disease. There is a need for new treatments for MN that are better at improving the disease while reducing fewer treatment associated side effects. In this study, researchers will evaluate if treatment with a combination of two different drugs, belimumab and rituximab, is effective at blocking the immune attacks on the kidney compared to rituximab alone. Rituximab works by decreasing a type of immune cell, called B cells. B cells are known to have a role in MN. Once these cells are removed, disease may become less active or even inactive. However, after stopping treatment, the body will make new B cells which may cause disease to become active again. Belimumab works by decreasing the new B cells produced by the body and, may even change the type of new B cells subsequently produced. Belimumab is approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat systemic lupus erythematosus (also referred to as lupus or SLE). Rituximab is approved by the FDA to treat some types of cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, and vasculitis. Neither rituximab nor belimumab is approved by the FDA to treat MN. Treatment with a combination of belimumab and rituximab has not been studied in individuals with MN, but has been tested in other autoimmune diseases, including lupus nephritis and Sjögren's syndrome.

Outcome measures will be assessed individually for each cohort.
NCT05442047
This study is testing a potential new medicine, NNC6019-0001, for people who have a heart disease due to TTR amyloidosis.The study will look at if this medicine can reduce the symptoms of a heart disease due to TTR amyloidosis, such as heart failure. Participants will either get NNC6019-0001 (apotential new medicine) or placebo (a medicine which has no effect on the body). Which treatment participants get is decided by chance. The chance of getting NNC6019-0001 is two times higher than getting placebo. NNC6019-0001 is not yet approved in any country or region in the world. It is a new medicine that doctors cannot prescribe yet. Participants will get an infusion of the study medicine 13 times, once every 4 weeks. The study will last for about 64 weeks after the first dose of medicine. Participants cannot participate in this study if they have a heart disease other than a heart disease due to TTR amyloidosis.
