Bacterial Composition and Recurrent Cystitis in Postmenopausal Women After Treatment With Lactobacilli....
Cystitis RecurrentLactobacillus InfectionThe goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the effect on the bacterial composition in the microbiome (the body's own bacteria) of urine, vagina and faeces after treatment with lactobacilli (lactobacilli's are a part of the microbiome), and its influence on repeated cystitis in postmenopausal women. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does treatment with lactobacilli change the composition of the urine microbiome in postmenopausal women? Does treatment with lactobacilli prevent repeated cystitis in postmenopausal women? Participants will be followed for 6 months. They will for 3 months receive a look-alike substance that contains no active drug and for the other 3 months tablets with lactobacilli. A computer program will decide what treatment the participant will begin with, and after 3 months she will be receiving the tablets, she did not get first. This way all participants receive both type of tablets and can be their own control. What type of tablet the participants is taking is unknown to both clinical staff and participants. The participants will come to the hospital for start-up, and every 1,5 moths for the next 6 months. They deliver faeces sample urine tests vaginal swab each time they are seen. When entering the study, they also complete health care questions on medication, earlier surgery, alcohol, tobacco, childbirths, weight, height etc. They make a drinking and voiding diary 3 times over the 6 months. When the study is over, alle the samples of faeces, urine and the vaginal swab will undergo analyzation for the bacterial composition in the microbiome, and differences in the microbiome when taking lactobacilli or not will be examined. The urine sample is controlled for bacteria known to give cystitis, and the influence on repeated cystitis will also be examined.

Tafasitamab and Lenalidomide Followed by Tafasitamab and ICE as Salvage Therapy for Transplant Eligible...
Recurrent B-Cell LymphomaUnclassifiable34 moreThis phase II clinical trial evaluates tafasitamab and lenalidomide followed by tafasitamab and the carboplatin, etoposide and ifosfamide (ICE) regimen as salvage therapy for transplant eligible patients with large B-cell lymphoma that has come back (relapsed) or has not responded to treatment (refractory). Tafasitamab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Lenalidomide may have antineoplastic activity which may help block the formation of growths that may become cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin, etoposide and ifosfamide work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving tafasitamab and lenalidomide followed by ICE may be a better treatment for patients with relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphomas.
GOT Applied as Neoadjuvant Regimen for Patients of Resectable ICC With High-risk Factors of Recurrence...
Intrahepatic CholangiocarcinomaIntrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) arises from the epithelial cells of bile ducts and occurs proximal to the segmental biliary ducts. ICC is highly aggressive, long-term survival only can be achieved in patients with R0 surgical resection. Large diameter of tumor, multiple tumors, preoperative carbohydrate antigen(CA)19-9 elevated, tumors invaded adjacent blood vessels and preoperative radiology hints suspected regional lymph node metastasis were considered as high-risk factors of recurrence in the previous study. Chemotherapy can trigger antigen release and induces strong anti-tumor effects of T cells due to cytotoxic cell death. Immune checkpoint inhibitors can relieve tumor immunosuppressive microenvironment. Hence, we aim to investigate objective response rate and R0 resection rate and survival rate of patients with high-risk factors of recurrence who receives Tislelizumab combined with GEMOX regimen(GOT) as a neoadjuvant therapy.

Testing the Addition of the AKT Inhibitor, Ipatasertib, to Treatment With the Hormonal Agent Megestrol...
FIGO Grade 1 Endometrial Endometrioid AdenocarcinomaFIGO Grade 2 Endometrial Endometrioid Adenocarcinoma3 moreThis phase Ib/II trial tests the safety, side effects, best dose, and effectiveness of the combination of ipatasertib with megestrol acetate to megestrol acetate alone in patients with endometrial cancer that has come back (recurrent) or has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Ipatasertib may stop the growth of tumor cells and may kill them by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Megestrol acetate lowers the amount of estrogen and also blocks the use of estrogen made by the body. This may help stop the growth of tumor cells that need estrogen to grow. The combination of ipatasertib and megestrol acetate may be more effective in treating endometrial cancer than megestrol acetate alone.
Use of Colchicine to Decrease Atrial Fibrillation Recurrence After Ablation
Atrial FibrillationAblation of atrial fibrillation (AFib) has been recommended as a therapeutic option when rhythm maintenance strategy is sought. One of the main objectives of an AFib ablation procedure is electrical isolation of the pulmonary veins, which have been identified as common triggering sites of the arrhythmia. The pathophysiology of AFib is not fully elucidated. Inflammation seems to play an important role in the initiation and maintenance of AFib. Previous studies have shown that inflammatory markers reactivity (eg, C-reactive protein [CRP] complex levels, elevation of white blood cells) are increased in patients who develop AFib. Similarly, recurrence of AFib within the first few weeks after ablation procedure seems to be mediated by an inflammatory process triggered by the ablation per se as implied by increased early CRP levels in AFib ablation patients. On the other hand, AFib can further induce and maintain a cascade of inflammatory events leading to electrical and structural atrial remodeling which leads to higher incidence of Afib development. Many trials have investigated the role of anti-inflammatory agents in preventing post-ablation AFib, using various treatment regimens such as corticosteroid therapy, antiarrhythmic medications like amiodarone, intravenous magnesium, atorvastatin, and colchicine. Previous studies have shown that colchicine can lead to decreased recurrence of post-ablation AFib with a beneficial impact in self-perceived quality of life of the patients. There is limited knowledge regarding the impact of colchicine duration and dosing on post-ablation Afib recurrence and the self-perceived quality of life. The information obtained from this study will ultimately guide future clinical practice to ensure safer outcomes.
