NCT02488720
The LEARN study a multicenter, observational study will that will evaluate the rate of cognitive change in approximately 500 clinically normal older individuals who "screen-fail" for the A4 trial on the basis of their screening PET imaging not demonstrating evidence of elevated amyloid accumulation (Aβ negative) but meet all other A4 study eligibility criteria. This study will leverage the A4 infrastructure and maximize the data acquired in screening a large number of well-characterized older adults for the A4 trial. The LEARN observational cohort will provide a critical comparison group for the A4 placebo arm, and future trials in preclinical AD. Although accumulating longitudinal data suggest that older individuals with elevated Aβ burden are at increased risk of cognitive decline, it is important to demonstrate a differential rate of clinical decline between Aβe ("Aβ elevated") and Aβne ("Aβ not elevated") individuals on a standardized set of clinical outcomes. Over 2000 well-characterized, highly motivated older volunteers will "screen fail" for the A4 trial. The LEARN study will follow 500 of these individuals, matched as closely as possible to the two treatment arms, in this observation cohort. The LEARN study may selectively recruit from a specific range of SUVr that fall below the threshold for "elevated amyloid" in order to support analyses of the relationship of baseline SUVr to subsequent cognitive change and amyloid accumulation. The observational cohort will be followed for 384 weeks with identical clinical/cognitive testing performed every 24 weeks, running parallel to the A4 treatment study and open label extension.
NCT02986659
Medical scientists have found that people with diabetes who take the drug Metformin have less age-related disease than those taking other treatments and researchers believe it may prevent numerous diseases and conditions that effect older people. In addition, metformin extends lifespan in some animal models of human disease. The purpose of this study is to see if taking Metformin causes changes in blood cells consistent with improved health and longevity in people who do not have diabetes. In this study Metformin will be compared to placebo. A placebo is a substance, like a sugar pill, that is not thought to have any effect on a participants disease or condition. In this study participants will either receive the active study medication, Metformin or placebo which is not active. Placebos are used in research studies to see if the drug being studied really does have an effect.
NCT02599324
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of single agent ibrutinib or the combination treatments of ibrutinib with everolimus, paclitaxel, docetaxel, pembrolizumab or cetuximab in selected advance gastrointestinal and genitourinary tumors.
NCT04543409
The aim of this Phase 3 study is to investigate the use of benralizumab as a treatment for patients with EoE. The effect of doses of benralizumab on EoE histologic signs and symptoms will be assessed over a 52-week treatment period (including a 24-week double-blind placebo-controlled treatment period and a 28-week open-label treatment period). It is proposed that benralizumab will deplete eosinophils from GI tissue(s), improve the symptoms of dysphagia, and improve endoscopy scores as well as other markers of disease activity. Upon completion of the initial 52-week treatment period, patients will be offered an additional Open Label Extension period of at least 1 year, with benralizumab treatment and ongoing study assessments.
NCT04538092
In the field of Adult Spinal Deformity (ASD), there are currently no standardized protocols for preoperative, intraoperative or post-operative care. New standards are being created for minimally invasive spine surgery within orthopedics and some neurosurgical centers. This study will evaluate the efficacy of an Enhanced Recovery After Surgery protocol for complex spine surgery performed for the treatment of ASD.
NCT05390775
The main objective of this study is to determine whether remote delivery of written exposure therapy after motor vehicle collision reduces incidence and severity of posttraumatic stress symptoms in high risk individuals. This randomized controlled trial is a pilot study to determine feasibility and potential efficacy. This data can be used to adequately power a larger randomized controlled trial.
NCT05074498
Part 1 of this study will be conducted to determine the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of multiple doses of TB006, as well as the maximum tolerated dose of TB006, and to assess the immunogenicity of TB006 (production of anti-TB006 antibody). Part 2 of this study will be conducted to determine the clinical efficacy of TB006 in participants with mild to severe Alzheimer's Disease.
NCT03859973
This is a study in adults with schizophrenia. The study tests whether a medicine called BI 425809 together with brain training improves mental abilities. Participants take study medication once a day for 12 weeks. At the start of the study, the participants are put into 2 groups. It is decided by chance who gets into which group. One group gets BI 425809 tablets every day. The other group gets placebo tablets every day. Placebo tablets look like the BI 425809 tablets, but contain no medicine. During the study, all participants do brain training using a computer. The doctors regularly test mental abilities of the participants. The results of the mental ability tests are compared between the groups. The doctors also check the general health of the patients.
NCT04030143
The purpose of this trial is to determine the safety and tolerability of multiple-dose administrations of aripiprazole, to establish the similarity of aripiprazole concentrations on the last day of the dosing interval following the final administration of aripiprazole into the gluteal muscle site, and to establish the similarity of aripiprazole exposure over the dosing interval following the administration of aripiprazole into the gluteal muscle site in adult participants with schizophrenia or bipolar I disorder.
NCT04914507
Anterior vertebral body tethering (AVBT) is a novel, minimally invasive, growth modulation technique that was recently approved by the FDA under a Humanitarian Device Exemption (HDE). The goal of AVBT is to control curve progression by applying compression on the convex side of the spine deformity. While there has been great initial enthusiasm about the technique as an alternate treatment option to spinal fusion for skeletally immature children with scoliosis, there is a need to better understand the long-term outcomes. The purpose of this study is to report the long-term clinical outcomes of skeletally immature patients treated with AVBT, specifically: 1. The effect on three-dimensional spine growth as compared to normal controls 2. Maintenance of major Cobb angle less than or equal to 50 degrees at skeletal maturity 3. Complications associated with both the procedure and the device

NCT02826161
This is an international, multi-center, prospective, randomized, open-label Phase 3 clinical trial of the cancer stemness inhibitor napabucasin administered with weekly paclitaxel versus weekly paclitaxel alone in patients with advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer who have disease progression following systemic treatment with a platinum-based combination regimen in the metastatic setting, who have received treatment with an immune checkpoint inhibitor if a candidate, additional approved therapies, and for whom weekly paclitaxel is an acceptable treatment option.
NCT03409458
This is a Phase 1/2, open-label, multi-center, non-randomized, dose-escalation study of PT-112 in combination with the anti-PD-L1 antibody, avelumab, in selected advanced solid tumors. The study is to be conducted in two parts: the Dose Escalation Phase of PT-112 within the combination and the Dose Confirmation Phase in patients with non-small cell lung cancer who will be treated at the RP2D.
NCT03684811
This Phase 1/2 study will evaluate the safety, efficacy, PK, and PD of FT-2102 as a single agent and in combination with other anti-cancer drugs in patients with advanced solid tumors and gliomas. The study is divided into two parts: single agent FT-2102 followed by combination therapy. Part 1: A single agent, open-label study in up to five cohorts (glioma, hepatobiliary tumors, chondrosarcoma, intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, and other IDH1 mutant solid tumors) that will include a Phase 1 dose confirmation followed by a Phase 2 investigation of clinical activity in up to 4 cohorts. During the dose confirmation, additional doses or altered dose schedules may be explored. Part 2: An open-label study of FT-2102 in combination with other anti-cancer agents. Patients will be enrolled across 4 different disease cohorts, examining the effect of FT-2102 + azacitidine (glioma and chondrosarcoma), FT-2102 + nivolumab (hepatobiliary tumors), and FT-2102 + gemcitabine/cisplatin (intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma). There will be a safety lead-in followed by a Phase 2 evaluation in up to four cohorts of patients.

NCT04596865
Pancreatic head malignancies are aggressive cancers that are often inoperable when they are diagnosed. In the \~20% of patients who are diagnosed when the disease is still operable, surgery is the only treatment that can provide a chance of cure. Unfortunately, up to 75% of patients undergoing surgery will have the cancer come back (recur). One of the reasons for this is the challenge of removing the whole tumour with some surrounding non-cancerous tissue to ensure that every tumour cell has been removed. This is difficult because there are many structures very close to the pancreas (such as the blood vessels that supply the intestines) that cannot be removed. A recent review study of \>1700 patients who had a Whipple's operation (the cancer operation that is performed to remove the head of pancreas) and found that whilst the majority of patients had cancer recurrence in distant sites (like the liver) that would not be affected by how the operation was performed, 12% of patients had the cancer recur just at the site of where the operation had been; this is known as 'local' recurrence. This suggests that a small amount of cancer was not removed at the time of surgery in these patients. Very few studies have looked at the relationship between the Computerised Tomography (CT) scan before surgery and the histology results (information about the tumour after it has been examined under the microscope) and whether this can predict exactly where the tumour recurs. If investigators can find factors that predict which patients get local only recurrence, investigators may be able to offer improved surgical techniques or other therapies during or immediately after the operation to these patients, hopefully leading to improved cure rates. This retrospective international study will look at these factors in patients who underwent a Whipple's operation for pancreatic cancer, bile duct cancer or ampullary cancer over a three year period between 2012 and 2015. Participating centres will provide data on pre-operative scans, complications around the time of surgery, any therapies (e.g. chemotherapy) that the patients had and if and where the cancer recurred. With this information, investigators hope to find ways to predict which patients will get local-only recurrence, so researchers can select them for future studies to see if additional treatments can improve the chance of cure from surgery for these patients.
NCT03471624
Primary Objective: To describe rate of persistence and/or improvement of viral suppression with TAF as with previous anti-HBV (hepatitis B virus) treatment
NCT06136702
This study includes a community-based, two-arm prospective acceptability study, whereby arm 1 consists of an educational session on sexual health and cervical cancer (screening) and a follow-up assessment after 3 months. Arm 2 consists of an educational session on sexual health and cervical cancer (screening) and self-sampling, additionally women will be asked to take a self-sample on-site, followed by a follow-up assessment after 3 months. Attitudes, uptake and users' experiences related to the use of a HPV self-sampling test will be assessed, additionally, the impact on looking for follow up care of self-sampling with standard cervical screening strategies will be assessed and finally the feasibility of an HPV self-sampling in hard-to-reach groups versus educational sessions and standard care will be compared (arm 1 and 2).
