NCT03144167
No predictive factors are known for the response to the bevacizumab anti-angiogenic molecule (Avastin) given in the event of relapse of glioblastoma (GBM) following radiochemotherapy. Classical MRI with gadolinium injection and perfusion is not sufficient to predict survival and response or duration. We propose to evaluate the prognostic interest for 6-month survival of spectroscopic biomarkers of proliferation, glial reaction, infiltration and glutaminergic metabolism or glycolytic metabolism recorded at 7 and 28 days of application of the treatment. These biomarkers are based on the increase of an index combining choline / Creatine (Cho / Cr), Glx / Cr (Glutamine and glutamate / Creatine), NAA / Cr (N acetyl aspartate / Creatine) and lactate / Cr ratios. The long-term objective is to predict the survival of these relapsed GBM patients at an early stage and to identify responder patients who would benefit from this expensive molecule and avoid using it in non-responding patients

NCT07324824
Surgical resection is the preferred therapeutic modality for patients with resectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the recurrence rate of HCC remains up to 70%. Neoadjuvant therapy for HCC could potentially reduce the risk of postoperative recurrence and prolong overall survival. Nevertheless, there is no standard neoadjuvant treatment regimen for HCC to date. In recent years, targeted therapy and immunotherapy are proved to improve the prognosis of advanced HCC patients. Previous study (ORIENT-32) has confirmed that, compared with sorafenib, sintilimab combined with bevacizumab biosimilar can delay tumor progression, reduce the risk of death, and exhibit a favorable safety profile in patients with advanced HCC. Therefore, we conducted a prospective, single-arm phase II study to investigate the efficacy of sintilimab combined with a bevacizumab biosimilar as neoadjuvant therapy in patients with resectable HCC beyond the Milan criteria.
NCT07346963
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a leading cause of acute lower respiratory tract infection in infants and young children and contributes substantially to pediatric emergency department (ED) visits and hospitalizations. In Türkiye, nationally representative prospective data describing the epidemiology, clinical spectrum, and resource utilization of RSV-positive children presenting to pediatric EDs remain limited. This multicenter prospective observational study aims to characterize demographic and clinical features of RSV-positive children under 5 years of age presenting to participating pediatric EDs across two consecutive RSV seasons, and to quantify key healthcare utilization outcomes, including ED observation duration, hospitalization, and intensive care unit (ICU) admission.
NCT07347119
By leveraging parameters including fractal dimension and topological index, we constructed a quantitative evaluation framework for ultra-widefield optical coherence tomography angiography (UWF-OCTA) images in patients with central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC), thus overcoming the limitations of conventional qualitative analysis.
NCT07348926
This study aims to examine the psychological status and quality of life of families with children who have rare genetic disorders. The focus of the study is to understand how the child's level of functional independence relates to the well-being of the family. Functional independence will be assessed using standardized tools, and parental psychological status and quality of life will be evaluated with validated questionnaires. The information gathered from this study may help improve the understanding of how rare genetic disorders affect family dynamics and daily functioning. The results may guide health care professionals in planning family-centered physiotherapy, psychological support, and care programs.
NCT04258774
The purpose of this research study is to better understand how blood flow and metabolism are different between normal controls and patients with disease. The investigators will examine brain blood flow and metabolism using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The brain's blood vessels expand and constrict to regulate blood flow based on the brain's needs. The amount of expanding and contracting the blood vessels can do varies by age. The brain's blood flow changes in small ways during everyday activities, such as normal brain growth, exercise, or deep concentration. Significant illness or physiologic stress may increase the brain's metabolic demand or cause other bigger changes in blood flow. If blood vessels are not able to expand to give more blood flow when metabolic demand is high, the brain may not get all of the oxygen it needs. In less extreme circumstances, not having as much oxygen as it wants may cause the brain to grow and develop more slowly than it should. One way to test the ability of the blood vessels to expand is by measuring blood flow while breathing in carbon dioxide (CO2). CO2 causes blood vessels in the brain to dilate without increasing brain metabolism. The study team will use a special mask to control the amount of oxygen and carbon dioxide patients breath in so that we can study how their brain reacts to these changes. This device designed to simulate carbon dioxide levels achieved by a breath-hold and target the concentration of carbon dioxide in the blood in breathing patients. The device captures exhaled gas and provides an admixture of fresh gas and neutral/expired gas to target different carbon dioxide levels while maintaining a fixed oxygen level. The study team will obtain MRI images of the brain while the subjects are breathing air controlled by the device.
NCT07347028
Chronic musculoskeletal pain (CMP) is a common disease in China, with a high incidence among the elderly, and has a significant impact on patients' quality of life. Knee osteoarthritis is a common type of CMP. Currently, both domestic and international studies have confirmed that glucocorticoid injection at myofascial trigger points(MTrPs) can alleviate patients' pain symptoms. MTrPs injection is safe and easy to operate, and can improve the clinical management efficiency of patients with knee osteoarthritis. Therefore, we designed a prospective, randomized controlled, blinded outcome, non-inferiority study to compare the long-term clinical efficacy of glucocorticoid injection at myofascial trigger points and complex intra-articular injection in treating knee osteoarthritis. Patients will be randomly divided into two groups and receive either glucocorticoid injection at MTrPs or joint cavities. After treatment, patients will be followed up for 2 years. Their NRS scores, WOMAC scores, Patient Global Impression of Change(PGIC) scale, and adverse reactions will be recorded at 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 8 weeks, 12 weeks, and 24 weeks. If the results indicate that the clinical efficacy of myofascial trigger point injection for knee osteoarthritis is not inferior to that of injection at intra-articular injection, it will provide a safe and simple treatment option that is easy to promote for patients who do not respond to conservative treatment.
NCT06479863

NCT07312058
Cancer treatments, despite their increasing effectiveness, carry a significant risk of gamete toxicity. Women of reproductive age are commonly offered fertility preservation (FP) before starting their treatment. However, few studies have analyzed the long-term reproductive outcomes of these interventions, nor how patients ultimately use or do not use the FP options once in remission. This project aims to better understand the effectiveness, utilization, and psychological impacts of these strategies. This work is part of an effort to understand and evaluate fertility preservation practices implemented for women of reproductive age undergoing cancer treatment at the Amiens-Picardie University Hospital (CHU). Its objective is to document patient pathways, clinical decisions, techniques employed, and reproductive outcomes observed after remission, in order to identify potential areas for improvement in the support and follow-up of these patients, thereby enhancing the overall quality and coordination of care. This work is conducted alongside the development of a fertility observatory at the Department of Medicine and Reproductive Biology, CHU Amiens-Picardie.
NCT04273607
Currently international experts recommend therapeutic anticoagulation for veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO). Reports and case series suggest that the absence of therapeutic anticoagulation is safe for VV-ECMO. No randomized control trials have assessed this. The aim of this pilot study is to assess safety and feasibility of an "anticoagulation-free strategy" for veno-venous ECMO (VV-ECMO) in Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).
NCT07170176
Patent Foramen Ovale (PFO) is a common congenital heart defect. Recent studies have suggested a potential association between PFO and migraines, particularly migraine with aura. It is hypothesized that PFO may allow microemboli or vasoactive substances from venous blood to bypass pulmonary metabolism and enter the arterial system directly, potentially triggering migraines. Although PFO closure has been shown to reduce the frequency and severity of migraine attacks, its long-term efficacy and underlying mechanisms require further investigation. This study aims to explore the characteristics of glymphatic system function in PFO patients and its relationship with migraine symptoms, as well as the impact of PFO closure on glymphatic function and its role in alleviating migraine symptoms. A case-control and self-controlled before-after study design is adopted. Two groups of participants are enrolled: a case group consisting of PFO patients with significant right-to-left shunt and migraine, and a control group comprising PFO patients with significant shunt but without migraine. According to clinical guidelines and after obtaining informed consent, eligible patients in the case group undergo percutaneous PFO closure. By comparing migraine symptoms and glymphatic function indicators both before and after the procedure between the two groups, the interventional effect of PFO closure and its potential mechanism will be investigated. The primary endpoint is the improvement in migraine symptoms, while the secondary endpoints include glymphatic function metrics. The findings of this study will provide new theoretical insights and clinical guidance for the management of PFO-related migraines.

Pharmacokinetics of antibiotics in critically ill neonates, infants and children on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO).
NCT05186857
Recent published data suggest that specific alterations in intestinal metabolome signature of hematopoietic stem cell transplant (allo-SCT) recipients might influence incidence and severity of acute graft versus host disease (aGVHD). Nevertheless, this possible relationship has not been undoubtedly established, pathophysiologic mechanisms have not been elucidated and possible clinical implications have not been studied. We hypothesized that in the early phase of allo-SCT, specific alterations in faecal metabolome occurred related to loss of intestinal microbiota diversity and disbalance of specific bacterial taxa, and that both alterations determine reduced survival of patients through increased incidence and severity of aGVHD. To test this hypothesis, a prospective multi-center cohort of allo-SCT recipients will had faecal and plasmatic samples collected at predetermined time-points pre\&post-allo-SCT, and clinical relevant variables will be prospectively recorded throughout two years posttransplant follow-up. Metabolomic and microbiome analysis will be done to answer objectives of the study. To additionally explore if differential evolving characteristics in the intestinal metabolome and microbiome of donor/recipient sibling pairs influence the incidence and severity of aGVHD, probability of malignancy relapse and early and late mortality an additional cohort of family donors of enrolled patients will also have faecal and plasmatic samples collected and analysed.
