NCT01236560
This randomized phase II/III trial is studying vorinostat, temozolomide, or bevacizumab to see how well they work compared with each other when given together with radiation therapy followed by bevacizumab and temozolomide in treating young patients with newly diagnosed high-grade glioma. Vorinostat may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. It is not yet known whether giving vorinostat is more effective then temozolomide or bevacizumab when given together with radiation therapy in treating glioma.
NCT02901899
The purpose of this study is to look at how patients respond to treatment with guadecitabine and pembrolizumab. The researchers will also be looking at the amount of time it takes for cancer to get worse when participants take the study drugs. All participants will be treated with guadecitabine and pembrolizumab. Guadecitabine interferes with the cancer cells' DNA and can increase the production of certain proteins, making cancer cells more recognizable by the immune system. Pembrolizumab helps your immune system to kill cancer cells. Thus the combination of guadecitabine and pembrolizumab may increase the ability of the immune system to eliminate cancer cells. Researchers want to find out whether the combination of guadecitabine and pembrolizumab is effective in treating ovarian cancer that has not responded to traditional chemotherapy. Participants will keep receiving treatment until their cancer gets worse, they have side effects, or they decide they don't want to receive the treatment anymore. After stopping treatment, the study doctor will watch participants for side effects and follow their condition every 6-12 weeks. The study aims to keep track of participants' medical conditions for the rest of their lives. This helps us look at the long-term effects of the study drugs.

NCT05726253
National guidelines make two recommendations for treatment of young children with mild pneumonia - one to avoid routine antibiotics and another to use narrow-spectrum antibiotics. No studies have compared the effectiveness of these two approaches. This pilot study will evaluate study processes and feasibility of a future clinical trial that proposes to test whether low-risk children managed as outpatients with mild community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) treated with supportive treatment without antibiotics will have a similar clinical response, with fewer adverse effects, compared with those treated with a supportive treatment plan that includes antibiotics.
NCT04963764
This pilot study will evaluate study processes and feasibility of a future large-scale clinical trial that proposes to test whether low-risk children managed as outpatients with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) and procalcitonin (PCT) levels \<0.25 ng/mL treated with placebo have a similar clinical response to those treated with antibiotics and fewer adverse effects.

All randomised patients with Charcot-Marie-Tooth Type 1A (CMT1A) who completed the primary study CLN-PXT3003-02, i.e. treatment with PXT3003 or placebo, are eligible to continue in the extension study CLN-PXT3003-03. Period 1: Patients randomised to PXT3003 dose 1 or placebo in the primary study (CLN-PXT3003-02) continued in the extension study on PXT3003 dose 1 (5 mL). Patients randomised to PXT3003 dose 2 (5 mL) in the primary study (CLN-PXT3003-02) continued in the extension study on PXT3003 dose 2 or PXT3003 twice dose 1 (2x5 mL). Period 2: All patients continue on twice dose 1 (2X5mL).
NCT01911195
Currently it is unknown how the human brain reorganizes its network organization to generate conscious experience and cognitive activity after a period of unconsciousness. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to assess how cognitive activity is reconstructed after general anesthesia. The investigators hypothesize that the brain's transition from unconsciousness to consciousness and full cognition is a complex process that occurs over an extended period of time. Specifically, the investigators hypothesize the following order of cognitive reconstitution: responsiveness to command, attention, complex scanning and visual tracking, working memory, and executive function. Volunteers will be healthy participants who are anesthetized with commonly used anesthetic drugs as well as a non-anesthetized group to control for circadian influences. A total of 60 subjects will be recruited for this study. All subjects (male and female) will perform basic tests for cognition on a laptop computer at 30-minute intervals during this study. The testing battery to be administered was assembled to assess multiple cognitive functions in order to determine whether and how cognitive processes return to baseline function. Electroencephalogram (measuring brain electrical activity) data will be monitored and recorded during both anesthesia and cognitive testing, for subsequent analysis. This study is significant because it could lead to a better understanding of the neural correlates of human consciousness, as well as normal and abnormal conscious state transitions (including barriers to such transitions).

NCT04934137
Pressure-related injuries in individuals with SCI and persons who use wheelchairs are one of the most dangerous secondary health problems encountered throughout the lifespan. With recurrence rates as high as 79% and mortality rates as high as 48% when sepsis is present, there exists a critical clinical need to target prevention of pressure injuries. This study will examine the effects of two novel seat mapping technologies ("AW-Shift" and "Sensoria") on increasing in-seat movement in persons who may be at risk for pressure injuries due to altered sensation on their sitting surface. AW-Shift provides a visual display about pressure distribution directly between the body and the seat cushion to a wheelchair user outside of a clinical setting. Sensoria represents a novel technology to promote tissue health by providing users with information about their daily in-seat movement and providing weight shift reminders that are based on time since previous weight shift activities. Changes in the frequency of in-seat movement behaviors will be compared between baseline and each intervention period.
