Increasing Adherence to Oral Appliance Therapy for Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Obstructive Sleep ApneaAdherence1 moreObstructive sleep apnea is a chronic condition that has serious health consequences including increased risk of hypertension, type-2 diabetes, heart disease, stroke and reduced life expectancy. This study proposes to use behavioral reinforcement and support to increase adherence to oral appliance therapy for obstructive sleep apnea. The control group in the study will receive routine care. In addition, their oral appliance wear time will be monitored using a sensor built into the appliance. Routine care includes an initial 1-hr consult, then delivery of the oral appliance (with sensor) and follow-up appointments at 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year. The second, experimental group will receive adherence promotion techniques in addition to routine care. These adherence promotion techniques can be categorized into 6 methods. 1- spouse/partner included in a patient counseling session. 2- Educational brochure delivery at follow up appointments. 3- Electronic reminder/communication system established by patient and provider. 4-Follow up communication between primary care physician and orthodontist. 5-Celebratory certificate for good adherence with the oral appliance evaluated at 3 month, and 6 month visits. 6-Gift card delivery, $25, when patient schedules a follow up with sleep physician. Patients will be followed for within the research protocol for 6 months. There are no additional risks involved with the research and the anticipated benefit is to develop methods to increase adherence to treatment for obstructive sleep apnea. This will benefit many patients with obstructive sleep apnea who use oral appliances to control the condition.

Anlotinib Plus Penpulimab for the Treatment of Sensitive Relapsed Small-Cell Lung Cancer
Small Cell Lung CancerAnlotinib is a multi-target receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor in domestic research and development. It can inhibit the angiogenesis related kinase, such as VEGFR, FGFR, PDGFR, and tumor cell proliferation related kinase -c-Kit kinase. In the phase II ALTER1202 trial, patients who failed at least two kinds of systemic chemotherapy regimens (third line or beyond) or drug intolerance were treated with anlotinib or placebo, the anlotinib group PFS and OS were 4.1 months and 7.3 months, the placebo group PFS and OS were 0.7 months and 4.9 months. Therefore, the combination of Anlotinib and Penpulimab (a new PD-1 inhibitor) is attempted for the treatment of sensitive relapsed small-cell lung cancer patients who were failure in the first-line treatment of chemotherapy with platinum containing drugs, to further improve the patient's PFS or OS.

Single and Multiple Ascending Dose Study of KN-002
Asthma COPDThis is a Phase 1, randomized, double-blinded, placebo controlled study. The study consists of 4 parts: Part 1 is a single ascending dose (SAD) study in healthy volunteers; Part 2 is a multiple ascending dose (MAD) study in subjects with stable, mild asthma; Part 3 is a repeat dose in patients with moderate to severe asthma and Part 4 is a repeat dose in patients with COPD.

Ischemic Heart DiseaseLung Injury1 moreThis study is an exploratory clinical study to observe the improvement of lung function before and after the treatment by human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells, and the purpose is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells on non-cardiac surgery-induced lung injury in patients with ischemic heart disease. The study is a randomized parallel controlled study. Patients receive a review of which main content includes symptom improvement, lung function improvement, and adverse events.

Study to Assess Adverse Events and Pharmacokinetics in Adult Participants With Non-Small Cell Lung...
Non-Small Cell Lung CancerHead and Neck Squamous Cell CarcinomaCancer is a condition where cells in a specific part of body grow and reproduce uncontrollably. Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) is a solid tumor, a disease in which cancer cells form in the tissues of the lung. Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (HNSCC) is a solid tumor, a disease in which cancer cells form in the tissues of the head and neck. The purpose of this study is to assess adverse events and pharmacokinetics of ABBV-514 as a monotherapy and in combination with Budigalimab. Budigalimab and ABBV-514 are investigational drugs being developed for the treatment of NSCLC, HNSCC, and other solid tumors. Study doctors put the participants in groups called treatment arms. The Recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of ABBV-514 will be explored. Each treatment arm receives a different doses of ABBV-514 in monotherapy and in combination with Budigalimab. Approximately 176 adult participants will be enrolled in the study across approximately 80 sites worldwide. Participants will receive ABBV-514 as a monotherapy or in combination with Budigalimab as an Intravenous (IV) Infusion for an estimated treatment period of up to 2 years. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.

Enhancing COVID Rehabilitation With Technology
Covid19In March 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) a global pandemic. Ontario has confirmed more than 547,000 cases of COVID-19 since testing began. For many of these patients, symptoms resolve within 4 weeks of onset. However, it is becoming apparent that a significant number of individuals are experiencing symptoms that persist long after the acute infection, known as Long COVID. These individuals have a wide constellation of presenting symptoms, often varying from initial presentation. For this study, we will be enrolling individuals receiving care at The Ottawa Hospital for Long COVID. This study aims to determine the following four things: 1) will adding electronic case management improve quality of life three months after coming to hospital with Long COVID; 2) is the electronic case management platform cost effective; 3) is there any factors that predict outcomes at 3 months; 4) to determine how a personalized rehabilitation program supported by a digital platform could be implemented for individuals with Long COVID. We will enroll individuals from The Ottawa Hospital who will then be randomly assigned to receive either usual care or usual care plus electronic case management, through a platform called NexJ Connected Wellness. Participants will also complete questionnaires every 4 weeks for 3 months. We will be looking at quality of life, mental and physical health, cognitive symptoms, fatigue and pain.
