NCT03635788
The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy, safety, and durability of two different strategies to treat participants with a history of sub-optimal adherence and control of their HIV infection: long-acting (LA) antiretroviral therapy (ART) and all-oral standard of care (SOC).
NCT05726747
Clinical data regarding quality of life in patients with refractory ascites is limited and preceded the development of newer questionnaires that may be more robust. One primary objective of this study is to study changes in quality in life in a prospective fashion using newer general and ascites-specific quality of life survey instruments specific to benign and malignant etiologies. Sarcopenia is a condition that is prevalent in cancer and cirrhosis. Current data is retrospective and associative, evaluating heterogeneous patient populations at different stages within the timeline of refractory ascites. The other primary objective of this study is to study sarcopenia in a prospective fashion and to understand its kinetics once a patient develops refractory ascites. Prospectively-obtained measures of deterioration in patient-reported outcomes and in muscle mass will form the basis for the next stage of investigation of interventions to mitigate these declines.
NCT04437511
The reason for this study is to see how safe and effective the study drug donanemab is in participants with early Alzheimer's disease. Additional participants will be enrolled to an addendum safety cohort. The participants will be administered open-label donanemab. Trial participants who were dosed with donanemab in the main study will be enrolled to a 3-year follow up addendum. No study drug will be administered during this follow up.
NCT06643988
The research study is being conducted to better understand memory function in people with opioid use disorder (OUD) and whether memory training can improve the symptoms and lives of people with OUD. Further, this study seeks to identify how brain and heart activity contribute to memory function and OUD symptoms. Participants will be asked to complete a baseline assessment, four weeks of at-home memory training (MemFlex), and a post-treatment follow-up assessment. Everyone enrolled will receive MemFlex as there is no placebo group. Each visit will include collection of a urine sample for drug testing. During the baseline and follow-up assessments, researchers will collect brain information using functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) and heartbeat data using a wearable wristband sensor. MemFlex is a cognitive-behavioral intervention that does not pose any risk. However, the use of MemFlex in this study is experimental as it has not been tested in individuals with OUD. We will enroll 20 participants with OUD and 10 participants meeting healthy volunteer criteria.
NCT04564027
The study is investigating efficacy, safety and tolerability of DNA-damage Response Agents (or Combinations), in participants with advanced/metastatic solid malignancies whose tumours contain molecular alterations
NCT06364709
Aphasia is a disorder of spoken and written language, most commonly following a stroke. It is estimated that between 2.5 and 4 million Americans are living with aphasia today. A common problem in aphasia involves difficulty retrieving known words in the course of language production and comprehension. The overarching goal of this project is to develop and test early efficacy, efficiency, and the tolerability of a lexical treatment for aphasia in multiple-session regimens that are comprised of retrieval practice, distributed practice, and training dedicated to the elicitation of correct retrievals. The aim of this work is to add to and refine the evidence base for the implementation and optimization of these elements in the treatment of production and comprehension deficits in aphasia, and make important steps towards an ultimate goal of self-administered lexical treatment grounded in retrieval practice principles (RPP) to supplement traditional speech-language therapy that is appropriate for People with Aphasia (PWA) from a broad level of severity of lexical processing deficit in naming and/or comprehension. This project cumulatively builds on prior work to develop a theory of learning for lexical processing impairment in aphasia that aims to ultimately explain why and for whom familiar lexical treatments work, and how to maximize the benefits they confer.
NCT03765736
This trial screens patients with colon or rectal cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic) or cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable) for genetic mutations for recommendation to a molecularly assigned therapy. Identifying gene mutations may help patients enroll onto target companion trials that target these mutations.
NCT05085275
A 9-month randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to compare the effect of fixed dose ferric citrate versus placebo in patients with advanced chronic kidney disease (eGFR ≤20 ml/min/1.73m2) on the composite endpoint of time to initiation of maintenance dialysis or all-cause mortality.
NCT04629508
This is a 2-part study. In Part 1, participants will be dosed at 2 different dose levels in order to select the RP2D for Part 2 of the study.
NCT03924856
A global study to evaluate peri-operative pembrolizumab with chemotherapy versus placebo to pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy in cisplatin eligible patients.
NCT04167514
Study CSL964\_5001 will investigate the efficacy of AAT with corticosteroids compared with corticosteroids alone as first line therapy for patients with high-risk acute GVHD
NCT03070119
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of BIIB067 (tofersen) in participants with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and confirmed superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) mutation. The secondary objectives are to evaluate the pharmacokinetic (PK), pharmacodynamic (PD), biomarker effects, and efficacy of BIIB067 administered to participants with ALS and a confirmed SOD1 mutation.
NCT05406583
This study will test an anti-HIV drug (ARV) for newborn babies. The study will include a minimum of 36 and up to 108 mothers living with HIV and their newborn babies from Brazil, South Africa, Thailand, and the United States. Infants will be in the study for approximately 16 weeks (four months) after they are born. Mothers will not receive study drug and will exit the study after the Entry visit.
NCT04736667
This study aims to examine the clinical profile/anatomical characteristics and natural history of patients who subsequently fail screening for transcatheter mitral valve intervention (TMVI).
NCT07030868
The main purpose of this study, performed under the master protocol W8M-MC-CWMM (NCT06143956), is to evaluate the effects of treatment with LY3549492 compared to placebo in adult participants with obesity or who are overweight with type 2 diabetes. Participation in the study will last about 11 months.
NCT03501979
A phase 2 non-randomized study to assess the safety and efficacy of the combination of tucatinib and trastuzumab with capecitabine for the treatment of leptomeningeal metastases in HER2-neu positive breast cancer.
NCT03900026

NCT07085468
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of LY3549492 in adult participants with a healthy body max index (BMI) of 22 to 25 kilograms per square meter (kg/m2). Participation in the study will last about 13 months.
NCT02330926
Cancer cachexia is a multi-factorial syndrome defined by an ongoing loss of skeletal muscle mass (with or without loss of fat mass) that cannot be fully reversed by conventional nutritional support and leads to progressive functional impairment. There is an urgency for improving management, but there is no consensus on the optimal treatment for cancer cachexia. Several single therapies for cancer cachexia have been examined in clinical trials, with disappointing overall results. As multiple factors are responsible for the development of cachexia, it has been argued that optimal cachexia interventions should target all components: multimodal therapy for a multimodal problem. The overall aim of this study is to early prevent the development of cachexia rather than treatment late in the disease trajectory. From a patient perspective a short term effect will be to improve physical and psychological function, to reduce symptom burden and to improve survival. In other words live a longer and better life during and after chemotherapy. Direct effects of the cachexia intervention are expected to be reduction of weight and muscle loss, and improved physical activity and quality of life.
NCT05323656
The primary objective of this study is to compare the change in tumour size per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours Version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1) in recurrent or metastatic SCCHN patients treated with setanaxib and pembrolizumab versus patients treated with placebo and pembrolizumab.
