NCT01969409
Recent research studies have suggested that proteins called antibodies that are produced by the immune system might be involved in the lung damage of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Antibodies produced by the immune system normal help to fight infections by attacking bacteria and viruses without harming our own tissues. In patients with IPF, there is evidence that certain antibodies (called autoantibodies) attack the lung and contributes to the injury and scarring that occurs in IPF. Our recent studies have found that many IPF patients appear to have excessive autoantibody levels in blood and lungs that might make their disease worse. Rituximab is a medication approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of autoantibody diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis. Rituximab works by destroying B cells, a type of white blood cell, called a B-lymphocyte, which produce autoantibodies. In this research study, rituximab will be given into a vein to reduce the autoantibody levels that we believe might be contributing to the lung damage in IPF. This study is being conducted to determine if rituximab provides beneficial effects for IPF patients by decreasing further lung injury.
NCT02989857
Study AG120-C-005 is a Phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of orally administered AG-120. Participants, all personnel involved in the evaluation of participants' response to treatment (e.g., Investigators, study coordinators, study pharmacists), and designated Sponsor team members will be blinded to study treatment. Participants are required to have a histologically-confirmed diagnosis of isocitrate dehydrogenase-1 (IDH1) gene-mutated cholangiocarcinoma that is not eligible for curative resection, transplantation, or ablative therapies prior to enrollment. IDH1 mutation testing will be performed at participating investigative sites. Participants must have progression of disease and have received at least 1 but not more than 2 prior treatment regimens for advanced disease (nonresectable or metastatic). All participants must have received either a gemcitabine or a 5 fluorouracil (5-FU) based chemotherapy regimen.
NCT03685149
Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy (ARVC) is an inherited arrhythmia disorder with high risk of ventricular tachycardia or fibrillation, and implantable cardioverter defibrillator remains as therapy of choice. Antiarrhythmic therapy with different agents including beta-blockers, sotalol and amiodarone are usually not effective in reducing risk of arrhythmic events. Recent data indicated that flecainide effectively prevented the arrhythmias observed in the experimental ARVC animals and in small series of ARVC patients. These observations provide a strong rationale for conducting a pilot randomized clinical trial to determine whether flecainide will reduce ventricular arrhythmias in high-risk ARVC patients. This pilot study is designed as randomized double-blinded placebo-controlled crossover trial with administration of 100 mg of Flecainide or matching placebo twice a day for 4 weeks each with a washout period. Primary specific aim of this pilot trial is to determine whether Flecainide administration is associated with a significant reduction of number of ventricular ectopic beats (VEBs) in ARVC patients with implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD).
NCT02719184
The study will include 60 healthy subjects (ex-smoker without any airflow limitation), 125 COPD GOLD (global initiative for chronic obstructive lung disease) I , 125 COPD GOLD II, 125 COPD GOLD III and up to 20 patients with COPD and A1AT (Alpha1-Antitrypsin) deficiency (ZZ genotype). Soluble and imaging biomarkers will be investigated addressing different aspects of disease pathways postulated to be relevant for COPD progression.
NCT03333629
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is defined by impaired social engagement and social communication, and repetitive, restricted, or stereotyped behaviors and interests. The average age of diagnosis in the US is after the fourth birthday. However, children who start ASD-specific early intervention have better outcomes than children start later. The current study will address a gap identified by the US Prevention Services Task Force, namely that children detected through screening respond positively to early intervention. This study will directly relate early detection strategies to early intervention, and measure the impact of age of intervention onset on outcomes when children are entering kindergarten. Local pediatric providers will be randomized to provide either usual care, or to an experimental condition in which autism early detection strategies are enhanced through the addition of specific procedures. Across all sites, 8,000 children will be recruited through their participating pediatric practice. Qualifying children will receive up to one year of early intensive behavioral intervention, after getting an ASD diagnosis. Primary outcome measures will include children's cognitive functioning and ASD symptom severity, which will be measured at multiple time points. The investigators predict that this study will inform early detection strategies which will result in improving children's social and cognitive functioning, mitigating lifespan disability, reducing societal costs, and improving personal well-being and productivity of individuals with ASD.
NCT05151172
Stroke occurs when a blood clot causes a blockage in a blood vessel (artery) within the brain. This type of stroke is called an ischemic stroke and carries a high risk of disability or death. Stroke must be treated very fast. Any delay of even 10 minutes can result in the difference between an independent and a disabled outcome, and in some cases between life and death. Endovascular therapy (EVT) or Thrombectomy is a procedure to remove the blood clot (thrombus) from a blood vessel to reopen it (recanalization). Patients are likely to benefit from a thrombectomy procedure when it is performed in a larger blood vessel. Currently it is not known if thrombectomy procedure will benefit the patients presenting with the stroke that has been caused by a blood clot in a medium sized blood vessel (medium vessel occlusion, MeVO). This trial will enrol patients diagnosed with acute stroke due to a clot in the medium sized vessel. The patients will be randomized within 12 hours of their symptom onset to either standard of care or standard of care plus thrombectomy procedure. The participation will last for 12 months Escape MeVO coordinating centre is located at the University of Calgary. There will be up to 75 sites. We will be recruiting a total of 530 patients.
NCT06139666
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate if there is a difference in pain after an arthroscopic rotator cuff surgery when a nerve block is performed with liposomal bupivacaine versus the standard treatment of bupivacaine alone. The main question aims to answer if patients who receive liposomal bupivacaine have better pain control and lower postoperative opioid consumption compared to bupivacaine alone. Participants be randomized to either the control group to receive a standard interscalene block with bupivacaine (25 cc of bupivacaine) or the experimental group to receive similar dosing of liposomal bupivacaine mixed with bupivacaine (10cc liposomal bupivacaine + 15cc bupivacaine). Data will be prospectively collected and the data from the experimental group will be compared to the control group at the completion of the study period.
NCT06133920
The purpose of this study is to evaluate compare postoperative range of motion in patients who are given a sling for comfort only and allowed to start early active range of motion compared to patients who are placed in a sling for 4 weeks with passive range of motion only. Once enrolled, the patients will be randomized through computer randomization then placed in paper packets into either the immobilization group or the early range of motion group.
NCT03850795
This study is a multinational Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, non-inferiority, efficacy and safety study of oral HC-1119 (80 mg/day) versus enzalutamide (160 mg/day) in asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic patients with progressive metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). The following assessment of prostate cancer status will be collected during the course of the trial: soft tissue disease on computed tomography (CT) scan or on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), bone disease on radionuclide bone scans, FACT-P and EQ-5D, Brief Fatigue Inventory, and PSA. Throughout the study, safety and tolerability will be assessed by the recording of adverse events, monitoring of vital signs and physical examinations, safety laboratory evaluations, and 12-lead electrocardiograms (ECGs). Blood samples for population pharmacokinetics for HC-1119 and enzalutamide and related metabolites will be collected.
NCT02037529
This randomized phase III trial studies how well eribulin mesylate or paclitaxel work as first- or second-line therapy in treating patients with stage IIIC-IV breast cancer that has come back. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as eribulin mesylate and paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading.

NCT05251727
To evaluate the safety and tolerability of ART-123 in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer who receive oxaliplatin-containing chemotherapy and bevacizumab
NCT06385236
In this study, a new method will be used to evaluate response to 2 approved biologic therapies, and assess how well each patient responds to each asthma treatment. This study will measure the response to these treatments using genomic and biologic measurements obtained from participants biosamples. By evaluating response to 2 different biologic therapies, this study has the potential to provide an in-depth understanding of the mechanisms underlying severe asthma that will inform and change treatment decisions, and may ultimately lead to a change in the way that asthma patients are evaluated for potential personalized therapies and maximize the probability that the subject will respond to treatment.

NCT04707729
Late or delayed intubation in patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF) treated with nasal high flow (NHF) is associated with increased patient mortality. The ROX index has been designed and validated to predict outcome of NFH therapy by identifying those patients with a high risk of NHF failure and those with a high probability of success. Whether or not the ROX index may improve patient outcome remains to be shown. To do so, a strategy using the ROX index must lead to earlier intubation than commonly-used criteria. The objective of the ROX-1 trial is to assess whether the use of an algorithm incorporating the ROX index to standard of care for the time to intubation in patients with AHRF supported with NHF isassociated with an increase in the proportion of patients who are intubated within the first 12 hours among those patients who fail on NHF.
