DepressionUnipolarThe primary aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of whole-body hyperthermia in addition to standard medical care in comparison to standard medical care alone on depressive symptom severity in patients with moderate to severe depressive disorder. Secondary aims included further quality of life outcomes, immunological parameters, and tolerability/safety of the hyperthermia.
Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) in Ovarian Cancer (CHIPPI)
Ovary NeoplasmsOvarian Cancer1 moreThis is a phase III, multicenter, interventional and randomized study which evaluates the use of Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) coupled with either Primary Debulking Surgery (PDS) or Interval Debulking Surgery (IDS), in patients with ovarian cancer. This study aims to assess the efficacy, in terms of disease-free survival (DFS), the use of HIPEC combined with standard care (PDS or IDS) or standard care alone.
Efficacy of Neoadjuvant Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy in Advanced High-grade Serous...
Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal ChemotherapyNeoadjuvant ChemotherapyBackground: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) is an important treatment option for patients with ovarian cancer. Although intravenous NACT can improve optimal resection rates and decrease surgical morbidity and mortality, these advantages do not translate into a survival benefit. Ovarian carcinoma is mainly confined to the peritoneal cavity, which makes it a potential target for hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). Our previous study showed that HIPEC could be used in the neoadjuvant setting, which was named neoadjuvant HIPEC (NHIPEC). Since hyperthermia is an excellent chemosensitiser, we hypothesised that the combination of NHIPEC and intravenous NACT could show superior efficacy to intravenous NACT alone. Methods: This study is a single-centre, open-label, randomised (1:1 allocation ratio) phase 2 trial. A total of 80 patients will be randomly assigned into an experimental group (NHIPEC+intravenous NACT) or a control group (intravenous NACT). Patients in the experimental group will receive NHIPEC following laparoscopic evaluation, and four tubes will be placed via the laparoscopic ports, which will be used to administer NHIPEC. Then, perfusion with docetaxel (60-75 mg/m2) will be performed (43°C for 60 min, Day 0) followed by cisplatin (75 mg/m2, Day 1) infusion (43°C for 60 min) 24 hours later. After NHIPEC, two cycles of intravenous NACT will be given. Patients in the control group will receive three cycles of intravenous NACT. The primary endpoint is the proportion of patients who achieve a Chemotherapy Response Score (CRS) of 3 according to the CRS system. The secondary endpoints include progression-free survival, overall survival and the rates of complete resection and NHIPEC-related adverse events.

Familial Mediterranean FeverFMFThe primary purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety profiles of investigational product RPH-104 (R-Pharm Overseas, Inc., USA) for treatment of Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) in adult patients resistant/intolerant to colchicine (crFMF). Pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters of RPH-104 single or multiple doses in this patient population will be assessed as well.
HypErthermia as an Additional Treatment for the Biology and Experience of Depression: Study 2
Major Depressive DisorderDepressionThis randomized two-arm intervention trial administers 8 weekly cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) sessions and 4 bi-weekly active whole-body hyperthermia (active WBH) sessions or 4 bi-weekly sham WBH sessions to adults aged 18 years or older with major depressive disorder (MDD).
Efficacy of Intravenous Immunoglobulin in Patients With Hemorrhagic Fever With Renal Syndrome: a...
HFRS (Hemorrhagic Fever With Renal Syndrome)The goal of this randomized study to test the efficacy of different doses of IVIG (intravenous immunoglobulin) in the treatment of severe HFRS(hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome), and provide new clinical ideas for the treatment and prognosis of HFRS patients in the future. This study will include all hospitalized patients with confirmed severe or critically ill HFRS from October 2021 to October 2023 from 9 centers. Participants will receive IVIG 10g/d or IVIG 20g/d. All the participants will be given conventional liquid therapy and symptomatic and supportive treatment. Participants will be collected demographic, epidemiological history, hospitalization information, clinical data, laboratory data, imaging results, treatment regimens, and outcomes data.
A Cohort Study of Hyperthermia and Imiquimod for the Treatment of Flat Warts
Human Papilloma Virusflat warts are a superficial viral skin disease, extremely common in childhood.Treatment of warts is often difficult and involves different destructive procedures.Although several pharmacological and physical topical treatments are available (keratolytic agents, electrosurgery, cryotherapy, carbon dioxide laser), results are often unsatisfactory in terms of efficacy (frequent recurrence) and cosmetic outcome (scars, inflammatory reactions, transient or permanent hyper- or hypopigmentation). Mild local Hyperthermia with a certain temperature range has been successfully used in the treatment of some diseases. It has been utilised in the treatment of some neoplasm, fungal and HPV infections. Investigators' study found that local hyperthermia at 44°C could cleared HPV in more than half of the patients with plantar warts. Investigators also note the fact that in patients with multiple lesions, the clearance of the target lesion is commonly followed by clearance of other distant lesions, a phenomenon suggesting that local hyperthermia could aid in establishing a specific immune response to eliminate HPV.So the purpose of the study is to evaluation local hyperthermia in the treatment of flat warts Appropriate control arms were designed for different conditions.
Safety and Efficacy of RPH-104 Used to Prevent Recurrent Fever Attacks in Adult Patients With Colchicine...
Familial Mediterranean FeverFMFThe primary purpose of this study is to assess the safety of the long-term treatment with RPH-104 at doses 80 mg or 160 mg once every 2 weeks in a population of patients with colchicine resistant or colchicine intolerant familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) who completed the core study, during which they received at least one dose of RPH-104. Long-term efficacy of RPH-104, the immunogenicity of the RPH-104, the pharmacokinetics of the RPH-104 and quality of life change in the population of patients receiving long-term treatment with RPH-104 will be assessed as well.
HIPEC in the Treatment of Stage IIc-IV Epithelial Ovarian Cancer After CRS (HIPECOC)
Ovarian CancerHyperthermic Intraperitoneal ChemotherapyThis study evaluate the Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy(HIPEC) in the treatment of Stage IIc-IV epithelial Ovarian Cancer after primary Cytoreductive Surgery (CRS).Half participants will receive HIPEC twice with one intravenous chemotherapy and 5 cycles of intravenous chemotherapy with carboplatin and paclitaxel after CRS. Half participants will receive 6 cycles of intravenous chemotherapy with carboplatin and paclitaxel after CRS.
SBRT Combined With PD-1 Inhibitor and Thoracic Hyperthermia for Advanced NSCLC
Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy; PD-1 Inhibitor; Hyperthermia; NSCLCThe aim of this trial is to investigate the primary efficacy of SBRT combined with PD-1 inhibitor and thoracic hyperthermia in patients with EGFR, ALK, and ROS1 negative stage IV NSCLC patients who progressed after first-line treatment. At least one lesion (primary or metastatic) was selected for SBRT treatment, and the radiotherapy dose of each lesion was 32Gy/4Fx. SBRT was combined with thoracic hyperthermia from the first fraction, and hyperthermia was performed 6 times, twice a week. PD-1 inhibitor was used on the second day after the completion of SBRT. The PD-1 inhibitor was administered at a dose of 200mg every time, every 3 weeks for 2 years (35 times total), or until the investigators deem that the patient need to discontinue the drug because of treatment-related toxicity or disease progression. During the period, the overall response rate and toxicities were regularly evaluated.
