Summary

This multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group clinical
study is designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of 3 dose levels of TTI-101 vs placebo in participants with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). a screening period of up to 28 days, 100 participants will be randomly assigned to receive 1 of 3 dose levels of TTI-101 (25 participants per dose level) or matching placebo (25 participants). Enrollment will be stratified by current use of nintedanib. The assigned study drug will be self-administered orally in tablet form twice daily (BID) with a glass of water after a meal. Once randomized, each participant will maintain their current standard of care supportive medications, including cough treatment, medications for symptom relief or quality of life improvements, oxygen therapy where indicated, respiratory physiotherapy, and treatment of comorbidities. Following randomization, all participants will enter the 12-week, double-blind treatment period.

List of Studies


Keywords
Brain
Summary

The goal of this study proposal is to develop a biorepository which will collect and store central nervous system (CNS) tissue, connective tissue, blood, or cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) for future research. This material will be collected from children with CNS conditions or defects. This will be a very useful resource to scientists who work to develop new approaches to prevent and treat conditions that affect children's brains and nervous systems.

A Multicenter, Adaptive, Randomized, Controlled Trial Platform To Evaluate Safety and Efficacy of Strategies and Treatments for Hospitalized Patients with Respiratory Infections

Date Added

PRO Number

Researcher
Andrew Goodwin

Keywords
Coronavirus
Summary

The protocol aims to improve standard of care, by ensuring an agile research infrastructure, with an ability to rapidly assess interventions during epidemic transmission of one or more respiratory pathogens adversely affecting public health.

Trials within this protocol can be adaptive, will be randomized, and will have superiority as the primary objective. Comparisons in the trials may be between an unlicensed agent to a blinded placebo plus standard of care (SOC), between an approved off-label agent to a blinded placebo plus SOC, among several active interventions (blinded or non-blinded; i.e., a comparative effectiveness study), or among different treatment strategies.

Summary

The ECHO Cohort is a longitudinal prospective multi-site study aiming to understand how the environment and things that happen early in children's lives - even before they are born - affect their development, health, and well-being. This research program includes many study sites across the United States. ECHO will combine information about 20,000 pregnant participants, more than 50,000 children, and their families. With so many participants from across the country, researchers can answer important childhood health questions.

Investigate Host Gene Isoforms Contributing to HIV Persistence in Cocaine Users

Researcher
Wei Jiang

List of Studies


Keywords
Drug Studies, HIV / AIDS
Summary

HIV infected cocaine users have uncontrolled viral levels and impaired immunity to control infection compared to HIV infected non-drug users. We ask the questions why cocaine use makes HIV infected cocaine users more sick than other patients. The goal is to improve immunity to control HIV infection in cocaine users. Both uninfected cocaine users and HIV-infected cocaine users are especially needed in this study.

Abbott Ventricular Tachycardia Post Approval Study

Date Added
October 24th, 2023
PRO Number
Pro00132390
Researcher
Jeffrey Winterfield

List of Studies


Keywords
Cardiovascular
Summary

This study is enrolling subjects who are scheduled for a ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation. Ventricular tachycardia is a fast heartbeat that starts with an abnormal signal in the lower chambers of the heart, which are the ventricles. An ablation is a procedure where a catheter (thin, flexible tube) with a tip that can deliver energy is used to burn the heart tissue where those abnormal signals are coming from. The catheter being used in this study is called the FlexAbilityTM Ablation Catheter and was recently approved for commercial use by the Food and Drug Administration. (FDA) Since it is newly approved, the FDA wants to continue collecting more information about the catheter and its use, so this study is called a post approval study. Participation in this study will take about 1 year. During this year, data will be collected including your medical history, cardiac medication use, ablation procedure, and any medical events that may occur. You will be seen or contacted 4 times. There is a risk of loss of confidentiality and there may be risks that are not yet known. There may be no direct benefit to you but it is hoped the information learned may contribute to knowledge in this field.

A Phase III, Single-Arm Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of ONCOFID-P-B (paclitaxel-hyaluronic acid conjugate) Administered Intravesically to Patients with BCG-unresponsive Carcinoma in Situ of the Bladder with or without Ta-T1 Papillary Disease

Keywords

Summary

The study is for patients that have been diagnosed with carcinoma in situ of the bladder (localized bladder cancer, also called "non-muscle invasive bladder cancer") with or without Ta-T1 papillary disease (Ta means that the cancer is only in the innermost layer of the bladder lining, T1 means that the cancer has started to grow into the connective tissue beneath the bladder lining). The investigational drug used in this study is ONCOFID-P-B. The main purpose of this study is to understand if the study medicine ONCOFID-P-B is effective and safe in treating patients with carcinoma in situ of the bladder who have not received benefit from the standard BCG treatment and are not candidates for radical cystectomy. Participants can expect to be in this study for up to 4 years and will include a screening period of up to 4 weeks followed by up to 33 study visits to the study site.

Summary

The Alpha-1 Foundation Therapeutic Development Network (TDN) aims to make it easier to design and carry out clinical trials that enhance the treatment of patients with Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency (AATD). To achieve this, the TDN will establish a network of clinical trial centers that have enough patients to gather a comprehensive database of clinical and genetic information. This data will be crucial in determining the criteria for including or excluding participants in the trials and in recruiting suitable subjects.

Specifically, this study will enroll participants by in person or remote consent who will allow collection of medical records to be entered into an Alpha-1 TDN database. Participants will then be invited to future clinical trials.
