A Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Obinutuzumab Versus MMF in Participants With Childhood...
Childhood Idiopathic Nephrotic SyndromeThis open-label, randomized multicenter study is to assess the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics (PK)/pharmacodynamics (PD) of obinutuzumab compared with mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) in children and young adults (aged >= 2-25 years) with frequently relapsing nephrotic syndrome (FRNS) or steroid-dependent nephrotic syndrome (SDNS).
Tocilizumab for Acute Chest Syndrome
Sickle Cell DiseaseAcute Chest SyndromeThe investigators are evaluating the role of a low dose of tocilizumab in treating acute chest syndrome in patients with sickle cell disease. Tocilizumab inhibits interleukin-6 (IL-6) receptors and is used to treat rheumatoid arthritis and severe cytokine release syndrome, which can be seen with chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy, and it is also authorized for treatment of COVID-19. Since IL-6 levels are elevated in the sputum of patients with acute chest syndrome, the investigators are hopeful that this will be an effective strategy. The investigators will be looking at how a low dose of tocilizumab affects oxygen status, clinical outcomes, and laboratory markers in patients admitted to the hospital with acute chest syndrome.
Platform Adaptive Embedded Trial for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
Acute Respiratory Distress SyndromePlatform adaptive embedded trial for acute respiratory distress syndrome (PETARDS) is a randomized, embedded, multifactorial, adaptive platform trial for ARDS. The study aimed to assess the impact of multiple interventions on outcomes in patients with ARDS admitted to the ICU.

Metabolic Responses of Metformin and Genetic Polymorphisms of SLC22A1 Gene in PCOS
Polycystic Ovary SyndromeMetforminThe aim of this study is to see the associations of metabolic responses of metformin with single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (rs628031 and rs2282143) of solute carrier family 22 member 1 (SLC22A1) gene in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). This prospective clinical study will be conducted in the department of Endocrinology, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU) from February 2023 to September 2024 over a period of two years. A total of at least 100 women with PCOS (18 - 35 years) diagnosed based on International Evidence-based Guideline for PCOS 2018, will be included consecutively by convenient sampling. After taking informed written consent, relevant clinical history will be taken and physical examinations will be done at baseline. Following a run in phase of three weeks, patients will visit thrice after 1, 12 & 24 weeks of metformin maintenance therapy with a window period of 14 days both ways. Blood samples will be collected in fasting state at baseline and after 24 weeks of treatment to measure glycemic status, lipid profile, fasting insulin, c-peptide and detection of SLC22A1 gene (rs628031 and rs2282143) polymorphisms. Glucose will be measured by glucose oxidase method, lipids by glycerol phosphate dehydrogenase peroxidase method, insulin by chemiluminescent microparticle immunoassay, c-peptide by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and genetic analysis of rs628031 and rs2282143 by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP).
Reduced Intensity Conditioning Regimens for Acute Myeloid Leukemia and Myelodysplastic Syndrome...
Acute Myeloid LeukemiaAdult2 moreThe goal of this clinical trial is to compare outcomes of two reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) regimens (fludarabine plus busulfan and fludarabine plus melphalan) in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: The safety of two reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) regimens (fludarabine plus busulfan and fludarabine plus melphalan) in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for adult AML/MDS patients with HCT-CI≥3 or aged ≥55 years. The efficacy of two reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) regimens (fludarabine plus busulfan and fludarabine plus melphalan) in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for adult AML/MDS patients with HCT-CI≥3 or aged ≥55 years. Participants will be randomized to one of two reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) regimens (fludarabine plus busulfan and fludarabine plus melphalan)
Invasive and Clinical Features in Patients With Brugada Syndrome Undergoing Catheter Ablation
Brugada SyndromeThis clinical trial aims to learn about the electrophysiological and clinical effects of radiofrequency catheter ablation in patients with Brugada syndrome. The main questions it seeks to answer are: What are the immediate effects of catheter radiofrequency ablation in cardiac electrophysiology? What is the relation between invasive and clinical features in patients with Brugada syndrome undergoing ablation? Researchers will compare ablation and control groups to see if there is a difference in clinical and invasive markers of the disease in one year of follow-up.
