NCT04031729
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), defined by fatty infiltration of the liver in the absence of excess alcohol consumption, affects an estimated 30% of adults in the United States. A proportion of people with NAFLD will develop progressive, inflammatory nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), which can progress to liver cirrhosis and liver failure. NAFLD is expected to be the most common indication for liver transplantation by the year 2020. We hypothesize that among adults with NAFLD, aspirin will reduce intrahepatic lipid content, as quantified by 1H magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-MRS).
NCT04090697
The primary aim of this study is to determine if clinically relevant doses of buccally administered oxandrolone are safe and tolerable in neonates with hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) or other single right ventricular anomalies who have undergone a Norwood procedure. The secondary aim is to evaluate the efficacy of buccally administered oxandrolone in improving objective indices of growth and nutrition in neonates who have undergone a Norwood procedure.
NCT04424290
This is a study in people with a type of diabetic eye disease called diabetic retinopathy with diabetic macular ischemia. People who have had laser treatment for their diabetic retinopathy can participate in the study. The laser treatment is called panretinal photocoagulation. The purpose of the study is to find out how well different doses of a medicine called BI 764524 are tolerated. BI 764524 is injected into the eye. The study has 2 parts. In the first part, participants get different doses of BI 764524 only once. Participants are in the first part for about 5 months and visit the study site about 8 times. In the second part, participants are put into different groups by chance. Some participants get BI 764524 injections every 4 weeks. Other participants get sham injections every 4 weeks. A sham injection means that it is not a real injection and contains no medicine. Participants cannot tell whether they get the real injection or a sham injection. For the second part, participants are in the study for about 7 months. During this time, they visit the study site about 7 times. In this study, BI 764524 is given to humans for the first time. The doctors compare how well people tolerate the BI 764524 injections and the sham injections. The doctors also regularly check the general health of the participants.
NCT02185417
The Diuretic Comparison Project aimed to evaluate whether chlorthalidone, as compared with hydrochlorothiazide, would reduce the risk of major nonfatal cardiovascular disease outcomes and non-cancer-related deaths in older patients with hypertension who were receiving hydrochlorothiazide at baseline. The investigators incorporated the pragmatic methods used by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Healthcare System to provide a real-world assessment of the effectiveness of chlorthalidone as compared with hydrochlorothiazide in routine clinical care.
NCT03847909
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of DCR-PHXC in Children and Adults with Primary Hyperoxaluria Type 1 (PH1) and Primary Hyperoxaluria Type 2 (PH2)
NCT03992456
This phase II trial studies how well retreatment with panitumumab works compared to standard of care regorafenib or trifluridine and tipiracil hydrochloride (TAS-102) in treating patients with colorectal cancer that is negative for RAS wild-type colorectal cancer has spread to other places in the body (metastatic), and/or cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable), and is negative for resistance mutations in blood. Treatment with panitumumab may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Some tumors need growth factors to keep growing. Growth factor antagonists, such as regorafenib, may interfere with the growth factor and stop the tumor from growing. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as TAS-102, 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. Giving panitumumab may work better in treating patients with colorectal cancer than with the usual treatment of regorafenib or TAS-102.
NCT05532982
The ultimate goal of this project is to use the findings to develop culturally appropriate programs and resources that can be disseminated to key stakeholders to improve access to PD care and increase inclusivity in PD research for Asian Americans. This study will serve as a first step towards developing broader community and patient education programs and active outreach campaigns to increase PD-specific literacy among Asian Americans. The results from this study will elucidate the role that language barriers, cultural perceptions, family influence, and other predisposing, enabling, or need factors have on delaying care for PD among Asian Americans. It will also provide much needed insight on how to improve inclusion of Asian Americans in PD research studies.
NCT04660643
This was a study of tirzepatide in participants with obesity or overweight. The main purpose was to learn more about how tirzepatide maintained body weight loss. The study had two phases: a lead-in phase in which all participants took tirzepatide and a treatment phase in which participants either continued tirzepatide or switched to placebo. The study lasted about 2 years (25 visits).
NCT04547998

NCT05532995
This retrospective collaborative study on persistent exercise intolerance after COVID-19 offers to perform a large descriptive analysis of CPET performed in real-life by pulmonologists, cardiologists and physiologists. Indeed, these practicians are regularly consulted for a persistent intolerance to exercise expressed by dyspnea and/or frank fatigability sometimes associated with muscular or thoracic pain. When these complaints persist beyond 3 months after the first symptoms, it is legitimate to perform a CPET: * Either to evaluate the functional impact of an identified organ deficiency (e.g. myocarditis, pulmonary fibrosis, etc.), * Or, in the absence of formal arguments for an identified organ deficiency, to observe possible abnormalities in physiological responses during an incremental exercise test, likely to explain the persistence of symptoms and intolerance to exercise. Indeed, the recent literature highlights the presence of non-specific ventilatory and cardio-circulatory abnormalities leading to various physio-pathological observations. Unfortunately, these reports now concern relatively small numbers of patients with very diverse clinical forms of Covid, comorbidities and habitus. In order to improve the understanding of persistent symptoms and in particular the diversity of physiological response presentations, the investigators propose to collect a very large amount of data through a web-based platform designed to collect the measurements made throughout the exercise test directly from the ergospirometer. The relevant data covers the period from January 2, 2020 to December 31, 2022 (i.e. 35 months), The retrospective data collection will be carried out from February 1, 2023 to December 31, 2023. The descriptive analysis will focus on the kinetics of all the variables measured and calculated on subgroups defined a priori on age, sex, comorbidities, acute covid severity, persistent symptoms post covid, regular habitual physical activity level, etc. according to the sample. The study is expected to collect data from around 1000 patients and to involve around 40 French-speaking investigators. However, this collaborative study is open on request to all centers wishing to participate, as the web platform has been developed for data collection in English.
NCT02393859
B-precursor ALL is an aggressive malignant disease. Therapy is usually stratified according to risk characteristics to ensure that appropriate treatment is administered to patients with high-risk of relapse. In general, pediatric treatment regimens are more intense than those employed in adults and include courses of combination chemotherapy. Standard of care chemotherapy is associated with considerable toxicity. There is a lack of novel treatment options for subjects who relapse or are refractory to treatment. Therefore, innovative therapeutic approaches are urgently needed. Blinatumomab is a bispecific single-chain antibody construct designed to link B cells and T cells resulting in T cell activation and a cytotoxic T cell response against CD19 expressing cells. This study will evaluate the event-free survival (EFS) after treatment with blinatumomab when compared to standard of care (SOC) chemotherapy. The effect of blinatumomab on overall survival and reduction of minimal residual disease compared to SOC chemotherapy will also be investigated.
