Summary

This is a prospective, multicenter, observational study in an international setting (North America, Europe, and Israel) to follow clinical outcomes for patients with complex fistulizing conditions for 24 months after undergoing surgical intervention to treat the index fistula. During participation, standardized data on exposure and outcomes (clinical, patient reported outcomes (PROs), and Healthcare Resource Utilization (HCRU)) will be collected from electronic data capture forms (EDCs). Following the surgical intervention for the fistulizing condition (index date), outcomes will be assessed at 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, and 24 months post-surgery (post-index).

Invasive Mechanical Ventilation (IMV) Strategies Domain

Researcher
Andrew Goodwin

List of Studies


Keywords
Critical Care
Summary

This study is part of what is called a platform study. This platform study, called the "PRACTICAL" study is designed so that various interventions can be evaluated at the same time against standard therapy. This allows researchers to compare these newer interventions to each other as well as to the established usual practice and helps them explore different ways to potentially improve the management of lung injury. Within the platform study there are various different sub-studies that have their own interventions and procedures. This domain sub-study is the "Mechanical Ventilation Study" and it is a multi-centre, randomized, open-label trial that will evaluate multiple ventilation strategies in comparison to conventional lung-protective ventilation in patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF). This domain will enroll perpetually, as interventions are added, continued, or discontinued. Researchers for this study are looking for different types of ventilation strategies (ways that the ventilators control settings can be adjusted) that may be the most helpful for people in their recovery, while also reducing lung damage caused by the ventilator.

Summary

The purpose of this study is to identify whether investigational blood and tissue testing can detect cancer cells in the blood stream can tell if subjects are responding to their individual treatment plans.

Participation will last as long as the subject's individual treatment plan and will consist of collecting tissue biopsies (10 slides), which will be taken during the subject's standard of care procedure, as well as blood draws (between 1 and 2 tablespoons), which will be taken during each of the subject's standard of care clinic appointments throughout their care journey.

Smoking
Summary

Many people smoke cigarettes and use e-cigarettes, and have a hard time stopping. Nicotine replacement therapy medications, such as nicotine patches and lozenges, have been shown to help people quit e-cigarette use. The purpose of the present study is to see how well nicotine patches and lozenges help people quit both smoking and vaping, and to determine if higher doses of the medication work best.

Summary

The goal of this project is to better understand the relationship between tobacco/nicotine and cannabis using behavioral economics during a tobacco/nicotine quit attempt. All participants will receive tobacco/nicotine cessation treatment (smoking and/or vaping treatment) for 12 weeks. To qualify, participants must be between the ages of 18-25 and use tobacco products (smoke cigarettes and/or vape nicotine) and use cannabis (in any form). Participants do not need to be interested in quitting cannabis/marijuana to qualify. This study is being conducted by the Medical University of South Carolina. All procedures are conducted remotely and there is no in-person visits are needed.

Summary

The study is for patients who have been diagnosed with non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The investigational drug in this study is ivonescimab (AK112). The study drug is an antibody, it blocks two proteins in the body that help cancer cells live, grow and spread. The study drug will be given in addition to pemetrexed and carboplatin. There are two groups that a participant may be assigned to, which group a subject is assigned on will be determined by type of cancer treatments that they have previously received. Treatment Group A will receive the study drug along with pemetrexed and carboplatin. Treatment Group B will receive placebo along with pemetrexed and carboplatin. The drugs will be given via an infusion. There is a 50% chance of being assigned to either group. Participation in the study will last about 36 months. The study consist of a screening visit, treatment visits, and a safety follow up visit.

A Phase 3, Multi-center, Randomized, Double-blind Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Aficamten Compared to Metoprolol in Adults with Symptomatic Obstructive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

Date Added

PRO Number
Pro00131432
Researcher
Jessica Atkins

List of Studies

Keywords
Cardiovascular, Heart
Summary

This study is for patients with obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (oHCM). oHCM is a condition where the heart muscle becomes abnormally thickened, which can sometimes block the blood flow out of the heart and results in the heart muscle working harder to pump blood to the body.

The study is done to compare the side effects and effectiveness of an investigational (not yet approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA)) medication with the beta-blocker metoprolol succinate in participants with oHCM. The study medication is known as Aficamten and is a tablet taken by mouth. This is a randomized study (participants will be assigned by chance to the study medication Aficamten and placebo or metoprolol succinate and placebo). A placebo looks just like the study medication but has no active ingredient in it. The medications will be administered in the form of a pill. This study will take about 9 months and include about 11 visits to the study site. Study related procedures include blood work, echocardiograms (ultrasound test of the heart), electrocardiogram (recording of heart's electrical activity), exercise testing, physical exams, questionnaires and optional genetic testing. Risks associated with this study include shortness of breath, nausea, diarrhea, headaches and dizziness.

Summary

The purpose of this research is to determine the safety and tolerability, the best dose for future development, as well as antitumor activity of a new antibody drug conjugate (ADC) called MYTX-011. MYTX-011 is a new drug, being studied in humans for the first time for treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer. The study team is investigating this drug to help treat lung cancers that are resistant to standard medications. This drug targets a protein called cMET on the cancer cell. MYTX-011 will attach to the cMET and release chemotherapy into the cancer cell.
