NCT07281027
The goal of this clinical trial is to find out whether two existing medications-anakinra and tocilizumab-can effectively treat a rare and life-threatening brain condition called NORSE (New-Onset Refractory Status Epilepticus). NORSE causes continuous seizures in previously healthy children and adults and does not respond to standard treatments. It often leads to long-term disability or death. Doctors currently use anakinra and tocilizumab as second-line treatments when first-line therapies fail, but there is no clear evidence showing which drug works better or when it should be given. This study aims to answer those questions. The study will enroll patients across 33 hospitals in the United States, Canada, Europe, and Asia. It includes two groups: 1. Randomized Cohort Patients will be randomly assigned to receive either anakinra or tocilizumab within the first 7 days of their illness. Only patients whose doctors were already planning to use one of these medications as part of standard care will be eligible for randomization. Researchers will monitor their recovery and compare outcomes between the two treatments. 2. Observational Cohort Patients who cannot be randomized-usually because they were diagnosed too late-will still be followed to study how the timing of treatment affects recovery. Participants will: * Receive one of the two medications (depending on their group assignment). * Take part in follow-up assessments over the course of one year, including medical evaluations and surveys. Some participants may be followed annually beyond one year. * Optionally participate in a 60-minute interview to share their or their caregiver's experience with NORSE.
NCT07283341
The goal of this observational study is to identify factors that influence symptoms in children with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), to find ways to make diet treatments work better and possibly create personalized plans to help each child with IBS feel better. The main question it aims to answer is: 1. What types of food do the kids eat and how do these diets relate to their symptoms? 2. Is there any motility pattern that we can identify from the kids with or without IBS using a wearable patch? 3. What kinds of bacteria and chemicals are found in the gut and urine of children with IBS, and how are these linked to their IBS symptoms? Participants will use the wearable patch, answer questionnaires, collect stool and urine samples, and recall their 24 hours dietary.
NCT05226663
This phase II trial tests whether \[18F\]FluorThanatrace by positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) can improve imaging techniques in patients with breast cancer undergoing a standard of care biopsy or surgery. \[18F\]FluorThanatrace is a new radioactive tracer, which is a type of imaging agent that is labeled with a radioactive tag and injected into the body to help with imaging scans. PET is an established imaging technique that utilizes small amounts of radioactivity attached to very minimal amounts of tracer, in the case of this research, \[18F\]FluorThanatrace. Because some cancers take up \[18F\]FluorThanatrace it can be seen with PET. CT utilizes x-rays that traverse body from the outside. CT images provide an exact outline of organs and potential inflammatory tissue where it occurs in patient's body. \[18F\]FluorThanatrace by PET/CT may help detect the activity of a certain enzyme in the body that may be related to cancer growth in patients with breast cancer.
NCT04684862
This is a single-site, open-label continued access study/treatment protocol under a treatment IDE. In addition to treating patients, the primary objective of this study is to assess the safety of using the Medtronic SynchroMed II programmable pump combined with the Intera tapered catheter for hepatic artery infusion (HAI) of a standard chemotherapy (FUDR) drug for adults with a clinical or biopsy-proven diagnosis of colorectal cancer metastatic to the liver or intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. After successful implantation, the combined pump and catheter system will be evaluated using a nuclear scan in the postoperative period, which is standard procedure to confirm that the pump is functioning prior to HAI of FUDR. Monitoring for safety will include a record of residual pump volume when it is emptied (every 2-12 weeks depending on whether the pump is being used for chemotherapy infusion) to determine if the pump is still working and surveillance of routine cross-sectional imaging (usually every 2-6 months) for any sign of a pump or catheter problem. Patients will be monitored for the safety of the pump/catheter combination for up to 5 years or pump removal/study withdrawal.

Method the combination of drugs derived from natural and artificial medicaments. Has stronger effect on immune system, effective good against HBV replication. This is a substantial new insight into the pathogenesis of disease, with a clear path toward clinical application, or which would lead to a substantial advance and perfect in management or public health policy.
NCT04949256
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab plus lenvatinib plus chemotherapy compared with pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy as first-line intervention in participants with metastatic esophageal carcinoma. The primary hypotheses are that pembrolizumab plus lenvatinib plus chemotherapy is superior to pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy with respect to overall survival (OS) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) by blinded independent central review (BICR). As of Amendment 09, Study MK-7902-014 will begin close out activities. Any participant who discontinues study intervention for any reason will be discontinued from the study without further follow-up. Second Course and treatment beyond disease progression will no longer be offered. No safety concerns contributed to the termination of this study.
NCT05111626
The main objective of Part 1 is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of bemarituzumab plus 5-fluorouracil, leucovorin, and oxaliplatin (mFOLFOX6) and nivolumab. The main objective Part 2 is to compare efficacy of bemarituzumab plus chemotherapy (mFOLFOX6 or capecitabine combined with oxaliplatin (CAPOX)) and nivolumab to placebo plus chemotherapy (mFOLFOX6 or CAPOX) and nivolumab as assessed by overall survival.

NCT05085366
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of mRNA 1647 vaccine in CMV-seronegative female participants and to evaluate the safety and reactogenicity of mRNA-1647 vaccine in all participants. The purpose of the Phase 3 extension substudy is to extend the observation period of the main study and to assess the longer-term immunogenicity, efficacy, and safety of the mRNA-1647 vaccine against primary CMV infection in healthy females who were CMV-seronegative at Baseline of the mRNA-1647-P301 main study (including participants who remain CMV-seronegative upon entry into the extension substudy and participants who seroconverted during the main study). The extension substudy will also evaluate the immune persistence and safety of mRNA-1647 in a subset of female participants who were CMV-seropositive at Baseline of the main study. No interventional vaccine will be administered in the extension substudy.
NCT05988411

The purpose of the study is to determine the role of adjunctive renal sympathetic denervation in the prevention of Atrial Fibrillation (AF) recurrence in patients with hypertension scheduled for a redo AF ablation procedure for paroxysmal or persistent AF. Patients will be randomized to either i) AF ablation (Control) or ii) AF ablation + renal sympathetic denervation (Intervention).
NCT05672173
This phase II trial tests how well adding lisocabtagene maraleucel (liso-cel) to nivolumab and ibrutinib works in treating patients with Richter's transformation. Liso-cel is in a class of medications called autologous cellular immunotherapy, a type of medication prepared by using cells from patient's own blood. It works by causing the body's immune system (a group of cells, tissues, and organs that protects the body from attack by bacteria, viruses, cancer cells and other substances that cause disease) to fight the cancer cells. Nivolumab is in a class of medications called monoclonal antibodies. It works by helping the immune system to slow or stop the grown of cancer. Ibrutinib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of the abnormal protein that signals cancer cells to multiply. This helps stop the spread of cancer cells. Giving ibrutinib and nivolumab with Liso-cel may kill more cancer cells in patients with Richter's transformation.
