A Trial to Investigate Different Doses of Lonapegsomatropin Compared to Somatropin in Individuals...
Turner SyndromeA 104 week dose finding open label trial of lonapegsomatropin, a long-acting growth hormone product, administered once-a-week versus daily somatropin product in prepubertal individuals with Turner syndrome. Approximately 48 individuals (12 individuals per arm) will be randomized to receive one of three doses of lonapegsomatropin or a daily injection of somatropin. This is a trial that will be conducted in the United States.
Class IV Laser Therapy on Ejection Fraction, Cardio Biomarkers and Functional Outcomes
Acute Coronary SyndromeA total of 60 Individuals with Acute coronary Syndrome who underwent angioplasty with or without stent will be recruited by purposive sampling method in a randomized double-blinded sham controlled trial. Recruited participants will be divided into two group of equal size (n = 30): Sham control group and experimental group by block randomization. The experimental group will subject to Class IV laser therapy along with the standard treatment regime at three spot(s) over the pericardium (left parasternal 2nd, 3rd intercostal space and apex) for a duration of 60 seconds at each point.; immediately after the angioplasty and subsequent two days. Left ventricular ejection fraction will be assessed at base line and after 3 days post-interventions. Cardiac biomarker (Troponin I) will be assessed at base line, peak hours (at 10 hour after revascularization) and on third day post intervention. Function outcomes will be assessed at baseline and at one month follow up.
A Randomized Study of BPN14770 in Male Adolescents (Aged 12 to < 18 Years) With Fragile X Syndrome...
Fragile X SyndromeThis is a 2-part study, with each part having a unique set of objectives for male adolescents aged 12 to < 18 years with fragile X syndrome (FXS). Part 1 is an open-label, single-dose, pharmacokinetics (PK) assessment of BPN14770 25 mg and 50 mg, while Part 2 is double-blind (DB) and randomized between two treatment groups (Study Drug and Placebo)
Less Bleeding by Omitting Aspirin in Non-ST-segment Elevation Acute Coronary Syndrome Patients
Non ST Segment Elevation Acute Coronary SyndromeRationale: Dual antiplatelet therapy, consisting of aspirin and a P2Y12-inhibitor, reduces the risk of stent thrombosis, myocardial infarction and stroke after coronary stent implantation. Inevitably, it is also associated with a higher risk of (major) bleeding. Given the advances in stent properties, stenting implantation technique and pharmacology, it may be possible to treat patients with a single antiplatelet strategy by completely omitting aspirin. Objective: This study will assess whether omitting aspirin reduces the rate of major or minor bleeding while remaining non-inferior to the current standard of care with regards to ischemic events in patients with non-ST segment elevation acute coronary syndrome. Study design: Open-label, multicentre randomized controlled trial. Study population: Adult patients presenting with non-ST segment elevation acute coronary syndrome undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. Intervention: In the intervention group aspirin will be completely omitted from the antiplatelet regimen in the 12 months following PCI. Main study endpoints: The primary bleeding endpoint is major or minor bleeding defined as Bleeding Academic Research Consortium type 2, 3 or 5 bleeding at 12 months. The primary ischemic endpoint is ischemic events defined as the composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction and stroke at 12 months.
Personalized Lifestyle Program in Treatment Resistant Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Irritable Bowel SyndromePatients with treatment resistant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) are recruited from secondary care gastroenterology clinics in Stockholm and screened for eligibility criteria. Participants follow a 12 month treatment program at Nordic Clinic, a clinic offering personalized lifestyle interventions based on the functional medicine model. In parallel with the treatment program, the participant are clinically assessed for the evaluation of the treatment after 6 months, 12 months, 18 months and 24 months
MT2013-31: Allo HCT for Metabolic Disorders and Severe Osteopetrosis
Mucopolysaccharidosis DisordersHurler Syndrome27 moreThis single-institution, phase II study is designed to test the ability to achieve donor hematopoietic engraftment while maintaining low rates of transplant-related mortality (TRM) using busulfan- and fludarabine-based conditioning regimens with busulfan therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) for patients with various inherited metabolic disorders (IMD) and severe osteopetrosis (OP).
Clinical Trial to Decrease Length of Stay in Infants With Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome With an Exclusive...
Neonatal Abstinence SyndromeA clinical trial to evaluate length of stay, growth velocity and clinical outcomes in infants with neonatal abstinence syndrome receiving an exclusive human milk diet. Human milk is defined as expressed human milk or donor milk and its derivatives, human milk-based fortifier and human milk caloric fortifier.
Use of Extracorporeal CO2 Removal in Case of Moderate to Severe ARDS to Apply an Ultraprotective...
Acue Respiratory Distress SyndromeThe extracorporeal CO2 removal (ECCO2R) has been recently proposed in case of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) in order to reduce pulmonary injuries induced by the mechanical ventilation. A reducing of tidal volume and/or respiratory rate is thus expected using this extracorporeal respiratory support. However, most of existing devices of ECCO2R can apply only a limited extracorporeal flow, often less than 1L/min, which limits the CO2 exchanges and does not allow to reach an ultraprotective ventilation. An extracorporeal flow higher should logically maximalize CO2 removal and allow reducing intensity of mechanical ventilation. Works focused on high-flow ECCO2R (2-3 L/min) in setting of ARDS are therefore mandatory to better understand apprehend the phenomena of gazes changes with this device and confirm the added-value in management of these specific patients.
Functional Sucrase Deficiency in Short Bowel Syndrome Patients With Intestinal Failure
Short Gut SyndromeShort gut syndrome with intestinal failure patients may have decreased production of disaccharidases, like sucrase, an enzyme responsible for digesting sugar in foods. This can happen due to loss of bowel length from surgery or from loss of cellular function in the intestines due to use of parenteral nutrition intravenously. Therefore, patients with these conditions may not be able to digest sucrose (sugar) fully. Patients might experience abdominal distension/pain, vomiting and diarrhea when sugar is taken in orally or through the g-tube, which can limit patients' ability to increase oral or g-tube feeds in short gut syndrome patients with intestinal failure. In patients with short gut syndrome and intestinal failure, the administration of exogenous sucrase (enzyme) may improve sucrose (sugar) digestion and thus the ability to tolerate more oral or g-tube feeds.
