NCT04134260
This phase III trial studies whether adding apalutamide to the usual treatment improves outcome in patients with lymph node positive prostate cancer after surgery. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-ray to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Androgens, or male sex hormones, can cause the growth of prostate cancer cells. Drugs, such as apalutamide, may help stop or reduce the growth of prostate cancer cell growth by blocking the attachment of androgen to its receptors on cancer cells, a mechanism similar to stopping the entrance of a key into its lock. Adding apalutamide to the usual hormone therapy and radiation therapy after surgery may stabilize prostate cancer and prevent it from spreading and extend time without disease spreading compared to the usual approach.
NCT02112188
The purpose of the study is to modify a type of counseling called "Individual Meaning Centered Psychotherapy" to meet the needs of Chinese cancer patients. Many cancer patients use counseling or other resources to help cope with the emotional burden of their illnesses. Counseling often helps them cope with cancer by giving them a place to express their feelings. "Meaning-Centered" counseling aims to teach cancer patients how to maintain or even increase a sense of meaning and purpose in their lives, despite cancer.
NCT05050084
This phase III trial uses the Decipher risk score to guide therapy selection. Decipher score is based on the activity of 22 genes in prostate tumor and may predict how likely it is for recurrent prostate cancer to spread (metastasize) to other parts of the body. Decipher score in this study is used for patient selection and the two variations of treatment to be studied: intensification for higher Decipher score or de-intensification for low Decipher score. Patients with higher Decipher risk score will be assigned to the part of the study that compares the use of 6 months of the usual treatment (hormone therapy and radiation treatment) to the use of darolutamide plus the usual treatment (intensification). The purpose of this section of the study is to determine whether the additional drug can reduce the chance of cancer coming back and spreading in patients with higher Decipher score. The addition of darolutamide to the usual treatment may better control the cancer and prevent it from spreading. Alternatively, patients with low Decipher risk score will be assigned to the part of the study that compares the use of radiation treatment alone (de-intensification) to the usual approach (6 months of hormone therapy plus radiation). The purpose of this part of the study is to determine if radiation treatment alone is as effective compared to the usual treatment without affecting the chance of tumor coming back in patients with low Decipher score prostate cancer. Radiation therapy uses high energy to kill tumor cells and reduce the tumor size. Hormone therapy drugs such as darolutamide suppress or block the production or action of male hormones that play role in prostate cancer development. Effect of radiation treatment alone in patients with low Decipher score prostate cancer could be the same as the usual approach in stabilizing prostate cancer and preventing it from spreading, while avoiding the side effects associated with hormonal therapy.
NCT05616026
This mixed method study includes a Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) and qualitative methods to assess the impact of a SMS text strategy in diabetes control among persons who experience homelessness.
NCT05624996
This phase III trial compares the effect of adding stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) to the usual treatment (conventional image guided radiation therapy \[IGRT\] and chemotherapy followed by immunotherapy with durvalumab or targeted therapy with osimertinib) versus the usual treatment alone in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) and cannot be treated by surgery (inoperable). SBRT uses special equipment to position a patient and deliver radiation therapy to tumors with high precision. This method may kill tumor cells with fewer doses over a shorter period and cause less damage to normal tissue. IGRT is a type of radiation therapy that creates a picture of the tumor to help guide the radiation beam during therapy, making it more accurate and causing less damage to healthy tissue. Usual chemotherapy used in this trial consists of combinations of the following drugs: cisplatin, carboplatin, paclitaxel, nab-paclitaxel, pemetrexed, and etoposide. Cisplatin and carboplatin are in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. Cisplatin works by killing, stopping, or slowing the growth of tumor cells. Carboplatin works in a way similar to the anticancer drug cisplatin but may be better tolerated than cisplatin. Carboplatin works by killing, stopping, or slowing the growth of tumor cells as well. Paclitaxel is in a class of medications called antimicrotubule agents. It works by stopping the growth and spread of tumor cells. Nab-paclitaxel is an albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation of paclitaxel which may have fewer side effects and work better than other forms of paclitaxel. Pemetrexed is in a class of medications called antifolate antineoplastic agents. It works by blocking the action of a certain substance in the body that may help tumor cells multiply. Etoposide is in a class of medications known as podophyllotoxin derivatives. It blocks a certain enzyme needed for cell division and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) repair and may kill tumor cells. Immunotherapy with durvalumab can induce changes in the body's immune system and can interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Osimertinib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of a protein called EGFR that signals cancer cells to multiply. This helps slow or stop the spread of tumor cells. Adding SBRT to the usual treatment of IGRT with chemotherapy and immunotherapy may be more effective at treating patients with locally-advanced non-small cell lung cancer than giving the usual treatment alone.

NCT04476862
This is a multicenter, observational study for patients with a confirmed diagnosis of neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis type 2 (CLN2 disease), also known as TPP1 deficiency, who intend to be or are currently being treated with cerliponase alfa. Patients receiving or expected to receive cerliponase alfa within 60 days of signing the informed consent form (ICF) may be eligible to enroll in the study, assuming all regulatory requirements for sites that have agreed to participate and protocol inclusion criteria are met. Data may be collected for all or some of the assessments as outlined in the protocol, dependent upon the clinic's and/or individual patient's standard of care.
NCT04452149
The ALLEVIATE-HF study is a prospective, randomized, controlled, blinded, multi-site, interventional, investigational device exemption (IDE) pivotal study. The purpose of the study is to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of a patient management pathway that utilizes an integrated device diagnostic-based risk stratification algorithm to guide patient care in subjects with NYHA class II and III heart failure, and to demonstrate the safety of the Reveal LINQ™ system and procedure in the study population.
NCT05766592
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of an LGBTQ-affirmative individual cognitive behavioral psychotherapy (CBT) and LGBTQ-affirmative family therapy (attachment-based family therapy for sexual and gender minority young adults; ABFT-SGM) delivered via telehealth to a sample of sexual and gender minority adults with nonaccepting parent(s) in New York, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, and Israel. The investigators will assess whether both treatments are associated with significant decreases in depressive and anxiety symptoms. The investigators will also assess whether and how each treatment achieves reductions in mental health symptoms through specific mechanisms (e.g., rejection sensitivity, internalized stigma, emotion dysregulation, parental rejection and acceptance).
NCT07335601
A Phase 2 double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study to evaluate resmetirom in 2 cohorts of subjects with moderate to advanced fibrosis, consistent with stage F2 and F3 fibrosis, who have undergone liver transplant. Cohort 1 will consist of patients who have undergone liver transplant for MASH cirrhosis who developed recurrent MASH. Cohort 2 will consist of subjects who have undergone liver transplant for indications other than MASH cirrhosis who developed de novo MASH.
NCT05775510
Medtronic, Inc. is sponsoring the SENSE SCS clinical study, a prospective, multi-center, post-market, non-randomized, observational study with a hybrid decentralized model of execution, utilizing a mobile application for the collection of patient reported outcomes (PROs). The purpose of the study is to evaluate workflow of a mobile application for collection of PROs and to gather data on patient experience with spinal cord stimulation therapy.
NCT05053152
This phase II trial compares the usual treatment of radiation therapy alone to using the study drug, relugolix, plus the usual radiation therapy in patients with castration-sensitive prostate cancer that has spread to limited other parts of the body (oligometastatic). Relugolix is in a class of medications called gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) receptor antagonists. It works by decreasing the amount of testosterone (a male hormone) produced by the body. It may stop the growth of cancer cells that need testosterone to grow. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x rays or protons to kill tumor cells. The addition of relugolix to the radiation may reduce the chance of oligometastatic prostate cancer spreading further.
NCT05719077
The purpose of this study is to pilot test the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of a clinically useful, inclusive dementia-enhanced training and tool for use by home hospice clinicians to improve care and support for Black and White patients with dementia and their family caregivers. The investigators expect family caregivers of clinicians in the intervention group will report less caregiver burden (primary outcome) than caregivers of clinicians in the control group. The investigators expect that, compared to clinicians in the control group (usual care), clinicians in the intervention group (receive the training and use the tool) will demonstrate more knowledge of dementia-related caregiving issues (secondary outcomes). In exploratory analyses, the investigators expect family caregivers will report greater self-efficacy and preparedness, and that patients of clinicians in the intervention group will experience fewer live discharges than family caregivers of patients of clinicians in the control group.
NCT04486716
A single arm study evaluating the continued efficacy, safety and tolerability of ofatumumab in patients with relapsing multiple sclerosis who are transitioning from aCD20 mAb therapy
NCT04789070
The hypothesis is that Sirolimus, (Rapamycin (R)) which is currently used in organ transplantation and works by blocking the activity of T effector cells but preserving T regulatory cells, as well as by inducing autophagy (protein degradation), will be effective in IBM to slow or stabilize disease progression, helping to maintain patient function and independence. This phase III trial will confirm pilot data showing statistically significant clinical outcomes.
NCT05272176
Veterans Coordinated Community Care (3C) Study will recruit 850 Veterans at risk for suicide post inpatient hospitalization. Each participant will be randomly assigned to treatment as usual (TAU) or TAU plus the Coping Long Term with Active Suicide Program (CLASP), with follow-up for 6 months after discharge. Outcomes include suicide-related behaviors (including deaths due to suicide, opioid overdose, or other substance-related accidents; and nonfatal suicide attempts) and suicidal ideation and functioning.
NCT00335816
RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as fluorouracil, oxaliplatin, and leucovorin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Fluorouracil may also make tumor cells more sensitive to radiation therapy. Leucovorin calcium may protect normal cells from the side effects of chemotherapy, and it may help fluorouracil work better by making tumor cells more sensitive to the drug. Giving radiation therapy together with chemotherapy before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving radiation therapy together with fluorouracil with or without combination therapy works in treating patients who are undergoing surgery for stage II or stage III rectal cancer.
NCT02616302
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is caused by food or acid coming up from the stomach into the esophagus, repeatedly. The esophagus is the tube that carries food and liquids from the mouth to the stomach. The body uses stomach acid to break down food, but when acid rises up into the esophagus it can hurt or damage it. People with GERD often feel food coming back up into the throat and mouth and have a burning feeling in their stomach, chest, or throat, called heartburn. Other symptoms of GERD include pain in the stomach or throat, difficulty eating, and throwing up. Symptomatic nonerosive GERD is a condition where people have the symptoms of GERD but the esophagus has not been damaged. People of all ages can have GERD. The causes of GERD in children are similar to those in adults and teenagers. Dexlansoprazole is a medicine that has been shown to help relieve the symptoms of GERD in adults and teenagers. This study aims to find out if dexlansoprazole doses given to children with symptomatic nonerosive GERD, based on their body weight, helps them feel better.
