ARM-ED: Advanced Respiratory Monitoring Events in Drug Toxicity

Respiratory InsufficiencyOverdose of Opiate2 more

There is a drug-related death crisis in Scotland. The majority of these deaths have involved the misuse of opiates (e.g. heroin) and benzodiazepines (e.g. valium) which cause an individual to stop breathing. The Advanced Respiratory Monitoring Events in Drug Toxicity (ARM-ED) study is a study investigating whether a wearable sensor can help detect problems with breathing in patients who have had drugs or medications that may cause this effect. The study will span a year and will study two groups of patients - those who attend with actual or expected respiratory depression secondary to acute drug toxicity and individuals who have undergone procedural sedation and analgaesia in the Emergency Department.

Pharmacogenetics of Antidepressant-Induced Disinhibition

Obsessive-Compulsive DisorderAnxiety Disorders2 more

The purpose of this study is to identify pharmacogenetic profiles associated with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI)-induced behavioral disinhibition in children with Major depressive disorder (MDD), anxiety disorders and/or obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) that could be used clinically to reduce the incidence of this adverse event and improve health outcomes.

Integrating Pediatric Pharmacogenomic Testing Into the Canadian Health Care System

Adverse Drug Reaction (ADR)

This project addresses the problem of adverse drug reactions in the three most frequently prescribed therapeutic classes of drugs in children: antibiotics, analgesics, and mental health medications. We will conduct pilot testing of a pharmacogenomic testing panel and study how the tests and generated test results are utilized and understood by physicians, pharmacists, patients and their families.

Improving Pain Management Via Spinal Cord Stimulation and Blood Pressure Reduction

Chronic PainHypertension2 more

The purpose of this study (PASSION study) is to monitor symptoms of chronic pain before and after 2 weeks of a standard drug commonly used to treat elevated blood pressure compared with 2 weeks of placebo (crossover design) so that we may better understand how blood pressure affects your level of pain. This study is not testing an experimental drug.

Harm Reduction Program For Informal PrEP Users In A Community-based Setting (seguiPrEP)

HIV/AIDSHIV Infections6 more

Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) is a biomedical strategy consisting of the use of antiretroviral therapy by HIV-seronegative people at high risk of acquiring HIV, to prevent the infection. Many controlled and randomized clinical trials, as well as implementation projects have shown that the use of tenofovir disoproxil (TDF) and emtricitabine (FTC) is both safe and effective in the prevention of HIV infection. However, the administrative situation of PrEP in Spain is anomalous. Unlike in some European countries, PrEP is not available within the National Health System (SNS), although being available for the treatment of HIV infection. In Spain the fixed-dose combination of FTC / TDF is for hospital use only, which requires prescription by HIV specialists exclusively and restricts its dispensation to pharmacy services within the hospital. This limitation in access and the knowledge of its prevention capacity of PrEP by vulnerable population has led them to obtain "generic FTC / TDF" outside the standardized health care system. According to a survey conducted in Europe to characterize MSM users of PrEP carried out in 2016, 5% of PrEP users had acquired it on their own. Of these 70% stated they were not included in any regular follow-up program while using the medication. Despite the growing demand, there are no health programs (including information, counseling, systematic screening for sexually transmissible infection (STI), etc.) aimed at meeting the health care needs of those who already use or wish to use PrEP, neither by public nor private healthcare providers. This type of service is especially necessary when considering that, among PrEP users, one may have already an established HIV infection, theoretical increase of other STI and a lack of monitoring kidney functions.. BCN Checkpoint is a community center since 2006 for the detection of HIV and other STI aimed at gay men, other men who have sex with men (MSM) and transgender women (TGW), which has shown high efficiency in HIV screening and fast referral to standard HIV care and treatment.. In 2017 the organization opened BCN PrEP·Point, a community centre with the goal to provide information, to conduct clinical trials and clinical monitoring of informal PrEP use. For this reason, it is presented here the protocol of the SeguiPrEP study, prospective, longitudinal study of health care in the community environment, to MSM and TGW, users of informal PrEP, based on point-of-care testing technology.

Pharmacogenomic Association Study in Indian Children With Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

ALLChildhood8 more

A five-year prospective observational cohort study. The study is focused on observing the relation between static germline variants and therapeutic response in Indian children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The project is an International multicenter setup. This collaborative research project between Switzerland and India includes one main center in Geneva that has conceptualized, designed, received grants for the study and two investigating centers in India (Puducherry and New-Delhi) involved in study design, patient care and recruitment for this specific study. All the participants for the study will be recruited form these two centers in India, and no patient recruitment is planned at main center i.e. Geneva. The study will be conducted in two phases. The first aims to investigate genetic predisposition (static germline variants) to early chemotherapy treatment related toxicities (TRTs). The second aims to investigate somatic genetic markers associated with the efficacy of steroid treatment among patients undergoing the standardized IciCLe-ALL-14 treatment protocol. A total of 500 children with ALL will be recruited to investigate primary objective of the study i.e. TRT, and a subset of 250 patients will be included to investigate another research question i.e. response to steroid therapy.

Pragmatic Trial Comparing Weight Gain in Children With Autism Taking Risperidone Versus Aripiprazole...

Weight GainAutism Spectrum Disorder1 more

This study aims to compare two FDA approved medications (aripiprazole and risperidone) for the treatment of behavioral dysregulation in children with autism spectrum disorders. This trial, done in the context of routine clinical care, will seek to evaluate whether aripiprazole or risperidone is associated with more weight gain in children.

Investigation of Serious Adverse Events Following Vaccination Against Yellow Fever: Emphasis on...

Drug-Related Side Effects and Adverse Reactions

It concerns an investigation aiming to investigate genetic biological(s) marker(s) which allow to identify individuals who have risk of serious adverse events to the yellow fever vaccine. This testing is free of hypothesis, because these markers are still unknown. There is no intervention, and it is not possible to establish primary and secondary outcomes.

TDM for Optimized Outcome in Patients With mRCC.

Kidney CancerRenal Cell Carcinoma Metastatic3 more

The purpose of this observational study is to assess the role of plasma concentration monitoring of treatment drugs for patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) in terms of efficacy and side effects. Furthermore, the investigators intend to evaluate the role of anti-drug antibodies, amount of bound drug to T lymphocytes and receptor polymorphisms in CTLA-4 and PD-1 receptors in treatment failure among patients with mRCC treated with check point immunotherapy. Moreover, polymorphisms in the UGT1A1 gene will be correlated with the pazopanib treatment dose.
