Purpose: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical, radiological, and biomechanical effects of Kinesio Taping (KT) when integrated into a standard exercise program for individuals with Hallux Valgus (HV). Hallux valgus is a progressive deformity of the first metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joint that leads to pain, functional impairment, and gait disturbances. While conservative treatments like exercises are common, the specific impact of KT on dynamic plantar pressure distribution and radiological angles requires further objective evidence. Methods: A total of 50 participants (aged 18-65) with mild-to-moderate HV are randomized into two groups. Group 1 receives a 4-week intervention consisting of specialized Kinesio Taping applied once a week plus a daily home exercise program. Group 2 performs the same home exercise program only. Assessments: Assessments include radiological measurements (Hallux Valgus Angle - HVA and Intermetatarsal Angle - IMA), clinical pain levels via the Visual Analog Scale (VAS), functional status via the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS-MTP-IP) scale, and dynamic pedobarographic analysis using the Zebris® FDM-2 system. Physical exercise capacity is also measured by the 6-Minute Walk Test (6MWT).

NCT07541170
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of divarasib compared with investigator's choice of immunotherapy (pembrolizumab or nivolumab) or observation in participants with resected Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog glycine 12 to cysteine (KRAS G12C)-positive Stage II-IIIB NSCLC, regardless of tumor programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) status, who have not achieved pathologic complete response (pCR) following neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy.
NCT06312137
This study will assess if adding sacituzumab tirumotecan with pembrolizumab after surgery is effective in treating NSCLC for participants not achieving pathological complete response. The primary hypothesis of this study is sacituzumab tirumotecan plus pembrolizumab is superior to pembrolizumab monotherapy with respect to disease free survival (DFS) as assessed by blinded independent central review (BICR).
NCT07005128
The main objective of the study is to compare the efficacy of tarlatamab in combination with durvalumab, carboplatin and etoposide to the combination of durvalumab, carboplatin and etoposide on prolonging overall survival (OS).
NCT07366424
Footwear is one of the extrinsic factors that can cause falls in older adults. Indeed, ill-fitting or worn shoes or slippers that do not support the foot properly, have slippery soles or high heels can contribute to falls. The quality of footwear is a modifiable risk factor that must be addressed to reduce the risk of falling. Therefore, examining the feet and assessing footwear are an integral part of the clinical evaluation of older adults at risk of falling, Older patients are advised to wear shoes and to limit the use of slippers or slipper socks, which do not provide adequate support for the feet and may increase the risk of falls. In this regard, in November 2020, the French National Authority for Health (HAS) published best practice recommendations entitled "The feet of older people: medical approach and podiatric care." INNOTHERA Laboratories recently designed a new line of shoes, called CHUT OTONOM®, featuring a patented outsole whose effectiveness in terms of stability has been proven in healthy subjects.
NCT07542210

Approximately 100 participants will be enrolled, comprising around 85 patients and 15 physicians. All participants will be interviewed online or in-person using a COM-B (Capability, Opportunity, Motivation - Behaviour) based guide. Interviews will be conducted in waves, recorded, transcribed, and analysed using both deductive and inductive methods.
NCT03793179
This phase III trial studies whether pembrolizumab alone as a first-line treatment, followed by pemetrexed and carboplatin with or without pembrolizumab after disease progression is superior to induction with pembrolizumab, pemetrexed and carboplatin followed by pembrolizumab and pemetrexed maintenance in treating patients with stage IV non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Chemotherapy drugs, such as pemetrexed, 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. Carboplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. It 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 cancer cells. It is not yet known whether giving first-line pembrolizumab followed by pemetrexed and carboplatin with or without pembrolizumab works better in treating patients with non-squamous non-small cell cancer.
NCT07444437
After receiving neoadjuvant treatment with PD-1 antibody and undergoing radical resection, a total 36 to 45 NSCLC patients who met the inclusion criteria, will be randomly assigned in a 1:1:1 ratio to the experimental group 1, experimental group 2 and the control group in this Phase IIa clinical trial. The study will be followed up until 24 to 36 months after treatment.
NCT07489716
This study is a single-arm, open-label, multicenter phase II clinical trial aimed at evaluating the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of SHR-1826 in treating locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer . The recommended dose of SHR-1826 was administered via intravenous infusion once every 3 weeks (Q3W), with each treatment cycle lasting 21 days until meeting protocol-defined treatment discontinuation criteria.
NCT05554380
This phase II ComboMATCH treatment trial tests the usual treatment of chemotherapy (paclitaxel) plus ipatasertib in patients with solid tumor cancers that that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable), has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic), and has PTEN and AKT genetic changes. Chemotherapy drugs, such as 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. Targeted therapy, such as Ipatasertib, may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. The addition of ipatasertib to paclitaxel in solid tumors with PTEN and AKT genetic changes could increase the percentage of tumors that shrink as well as lengthen the time that the tumors remain stable (without progression). Researchers hope to learn if paclitaxel plus ipatasertib will shrink this type of cancer or stop its growth.
NCT07583771

NCT04612166
The long-term goal of this pragmatic, cluster randomized study is to develop a sustainable program for healthcare systems to reduce fatal and nonfatal falls among high-risk older adults living independently in their communities. This study will examine how a medication care plan, grounded in established medication deprescribing and tapering frameworks, can be implemented in primary care clinics to reduce falls among older adults living in rural Iowa communities. The study is a collaboration between researchers and clinical pharmacists at the University of Iowa and a clinical team from the MercyOneSM Health Network, which is a non-academic healthcare system with significant reach into rural Iowa communities The study's specific goals are as followed: * Aim 1: Examine the effectiveness of a clinic-based, individualized medication care plan in reducing rates of all falls including medically treated falls (sub-aim 1a) and motor vehicle charges and crashes (sub-aim 1b) among older adults seen in rural primary care clinics. * Aim 2: Identify provider and patient factors that are associated with patient adherence to medication deprescribing and discontinuation recommendations. * Aim 3\*: Evaluate implementation of the medication care plan to understand its acceptability, usability and relevance among healthcare system administrators, clinics (clinic managers and clinical staff), providers (health coaches, pharmacists, prescribers) and participants. Note\*: Only Aims 1 and 2 (i.e., pertinent to the clinical trial) will be described in this clinicaltrials.gov study description. Intervention and control participants will participate in: * Baseline assessment * Quarterly follow-up assessments * Monthly falls tracking Additionally, intervention participants will receive: • An individualized medication action plan to deprescribe medications that put them at high risk for a fall Researchers will compare intervention and control participants for changes in self-reported fall rates (primary outcome), EMR-indicated medically-treated falls (secondary outcome), traffic-related charges (secondary outcome), and motor vehicle crashes (secondary outcome).

The purpose of this study is to compare IV Acetaminophen for pain control to the usual care with opioids in patients admitted for small bowel obstruction.
NCT07581236
Abstract Background China has a high incidence of esophageal cancer, with surgery being the primary treatment modality. While the right thoracic approach for radical esophagectomy remains the standard surgical method, it is associated with a significant rate of postoperative complications. Given that the esophagus is a posterior mediastinal organ, a mediastinal approach for radical esophagectomy without thoracotomy could potentially reduce postoperative complications. However, this hypothesis has yet to be validated by prospective clinical studies. To explore this further, we conducted a single-center, single-arm clinical study to assess the short-term efficacy of inflatable video-assisted mediastinoscopic transhiatal esophagectomy (IVMTE) combined with laparoscopy for the treatment of thoracic esophageal cancer. Methods In this prospective, single-arm phase II clinical trial, 35 patients with cTis-3N0M0 thoracic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) were enrolled between March 2021 and September 2023. All patients underwent radical esophagectomy using IVMTE. The primary endpoint of the study was the overall surgical complication rate, while secondary endpoints included the R0 resection rate, the extent and number of lymph nodes dissected, the 1-year disease-free survival (DFS) rate, and the 1-year overall survival (OS) rate. To evaluate the outcomes, propensity score matching (PSM) analysis was performed, comparing the results with 70 cTis-3N0M0 ESCC patients who underwent minimally invasive McKeown esophagectomy (MIME) using a thoracoscopic-laparoscopic approach during the same period (March 2021 to September 2023).
NCT03337698
This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of immunotherapy-based treatment combinations in participants with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Two cohorts will be enrolled in parallel in this study: Cohort 1 will consist of participants with tumor PD-L1 expression who have received no prior systemic therapy for metastatic NSCLC, and Cohort 2 will consist of participants who experienced disease progression during or following treatment with a platinum-containing regimen and a PD-L1/PD-1 checkpoint inhibitor, given in combination as one line of therapy or as two separate lines of therapy, regardless of PD-L1 expression. In each cohort, eligible participants will initially be assigned to one of several treatment arms (Stage 1). Participants who experience disease progression, loss of clinical benefit, or unacceptable toxicity during Stage 1 may be eligible to continue treatment with a different treatment regimen (Stage 2).

In this study, the investigators plan to undertake comprehensive molecular profiling of "actionable" alterations in lung cancer specimens in order to determine the prevalence of each genetic subtype in the local population.
NCT04527549
This phase II trial investigates how well adding hydroxychloroquine to the standard treatment of dabrafenib and trametinib works to overcome resistance and delay disease progression in treating patients with stage IIIC or IV BRAF V600E/K melanoma. Hydroxychloroquine may cause cell death in tumor cells that rely on a process called "autophagy" for survival. Dabrafenib and trametinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving hydroxychloroquine together with dabrafenib and trametinib may work better than dabrafenib and trametinib alone to shrink and stabilize the cancer.
