Active clinical trials for "Recurrence"

Graft-versus-Host Disease (GVHD) and relapse, which is mainly due to lack of Graft-versus-Leukemia (GVL), are the most frequent and severe complications of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). T cells expanded from mature T cells in the graft play a dominant role in development of GVHD and GVL early after allo-HSCT. Recent applications of high-throughput sequencing (HTS) to the T cells repertoire open a new avenue for us to look deeply into how these T cells dynamically adjust in the context of the recipient's environment. The main goal of this research study is to set up a mathematical model based on T cell receptor (TCR) sequencing to enable prediction for the key immunologic outcomes early post-transplantation. This study will deepen the understanding of the molecular mechanisms driving the most deadly post-transplantation complications, and serve as convincing evidence upon which to choose a better donor and a more proper transplantation approach. This observational trial will perform HTS for TCR β-chain complementarity determining region 3 (CDR3) repertoires of grafts and peripheral blood samples from recipients post-transplantation and analyze the relationship between dynamics of TCR CDR3 repertoires and clinical outcomes early post-transplantation, especially including GVHD and relapse. The investigators want to know how the antigen environment in recipients drives dynamics of mature T cells from grafts in order to use the new discovered rules to better predict and treat the disease process.

This study is dedicated to achieving a better understanding of how to identify patterns that indicate someone might be at high risk for relapse in schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder. The investigators are utilizing smartphone technology along with on body sensors to achieve this goal. The study will observe participants behavior in their natural environment for a period of 16 weeks or until a signal of relapse is obtained. Participants will also complete scales in a clinical research environment biweekly.

analysis of the risk factors of intra-hepatic distant recurrence (IDR) of hepatocellular carcinoma within 1 year after radiofrequency ablation.

A prospective, multicenter study: Primary objective: to assess the diagnostic yield of screening MRI compared to physical examination, mammography or ultrasonography in the detection of recurrence in patients treated with breast conserving therapy Secondary objective: to describe the size, type, grade, and nodal status of cancers seen only on MRI and to estimate the rate of benign biopsies and short interval follow-up induced only by MRI in this population.

The purpose of this study is to determine the clinical characteristic of recurrent acute rhinosinusitis in children.

Anecdotal reports and scientific literature suggest that the risk of recurrence of diabetic foot ulcers can be minimized by nerve decompression procedures at anatomic sites of nerve pinching and entrapment. Historical risk of 25% annually has been reported to decrease by >80% to under 5% yearly. Since an open wound precedes the large majority (85%) of amputations in diabetes, avoidance of ulcer recurrences is important. This study tests the current academic opinion that nerve decompression will not decrease ulcer recurrence risk. Null hypothesis: nerve decompression will not decrease diabetic foot ulcer recurrence risk.

The aim of this study is to determine the incidence of recurrent caries around the different types of restorative materials (composites, amalgam, ceramics, crowns, etc.) and to better characterize recurrent caries lesions in terms of location and size of the lesions and type, material and age of the restoration.

The primary objective of the study will be to determine whether remote limb ischemic conditioning (RLIC) compared with sham RLIC (placebo) treatment reduces the 12-month risk of recurrent IS in patients with a recent TIA or IS caused by stenosis of a major intracranial artery. After screening period, eligible patients will be randomly allocated into 2 groups. In addition, all participants receive an usual clinical therapy.

Objectives: To identify factors associated with disease recurrence in patients with high-grade cervical intra-epithelial neoplasia (CIN) undergoing large loop excision of the transformation zone (LLETZ). Study Design: A case-control study that included 103 patients. Patients were included in the study if they had a history of surgery for conization by LLETZ for the histopathological diagnosis of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grades II and III (CIN II and CIN III). Follow-up exams were conducted every six months with Pap smear collection and colposcopic examination with biopsy, when necessary, for a minimum period of twelve months. Cure was defined as a normal follow-up examination within 24 months. During follow-up, relapse occurred when cytology and/or biopsy results showed that CIN had returned after 12 months, at which time a new cervical conization by LLETZ was performed.

This is an expanded access program (EAP) for eligible patients with Recurrent Ovarian Cancer. This program is designed to provide access to niraparib prior to approval by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). To be eligible, patients with Recurrent Ovarian Cancer following a partial (PR) or complete response (CR) to their most recent platinum-based chemotherapy and must have experienced a PR or CR after the penultimate (next to last) platinum-based chemotherapy for at least 6 months without disease progression after this chemotherapy.
