Active clinical trials for "Syndrome"

The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of Ultrasound-guided Erector Spinae plane block compared to Ultrasound-guided serratus anterior plane block on the emergence of post-thoracotomy pain syndrome in patients undergoing lobectomy for lung cancer.

The objective of the study is to provide preliminary evidence for the safety and effectiveness of the AblaCare System in transvaginal ablation of ovarian tissue under ultrasound visualization in women with infertility due to polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) who have not responded to first-line ovulation induction treatment or are contraindicated for or decline such treatment.

This pilot phase II trial studies how well high dose cyclophosphamide, tacrolimus, and mycophenolate mofetil work in preventing graft versus host disease in patients with hematological malignancies undergoing myeloablative or reduced intensity donor stem cell transplant. Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells (called graft versus host disease). Giving high dose cyclophosphamide, tacrolimus, and mycophenolate mofetil after the transplant may stop this from happening.

This trial aims to investigate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of sodium valproate in the treatment of patients with Wolfram syndrome. 70 paediatric and adult patients were initially planned to be randomised 2:1 to receive either sodium valproate or placebo at 6 international centres. 63 patients were recruited when a decision was made to stop the study recruitment in November 2022.

This study will determine changes in plasma C15:0 levels in young adults with BMI ≥ 25 in response to 12 weeks of daily oral C15:0 supplementation.

Primary Objective: To evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of SAR421869 in patients with Usher syndrome Type 1B Secondary Objective: To assess long-term safety and biological activity of SAR421869

This pilot clinical trial studies a culturally-informed counseling intervention in Latinas at high risk for hereditary breast or ovarian cancer. A culturally-informed counseling intervention may be an effective method to help people learn more about their cancer risk.

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of enhanced haematology palliative care services to the most symptomatic group of blood cancer patients, namely myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). Hypothesis to be tested: To test whether early integration of dedicated palliative care will improve the quality of life, mood and caregiver burden in patients with MDS and AML. Design and subjects: This is a 24-month open-label randomized controlled trial. Subjects include patients with MDS and AML. Study instruments: Interventions will be carried out by a dedicated team comprising palliative care physicians, haematologists, palliative care nurse specialists, and social workers. Outcome measures will be determined using validated questionnaires and data collection tools. Interventions: In this trial, enhanced haematology palliative care integrated to conventional supportive care versus conventional supportive care alone will be compared. Main outcome measures: The primary outcome measures include quality of life, mood and caregiver burden. The secondary outcome measures include number of admissions to acute hospital and intensive care and overall survival.

Open-label extension study from YKP509C001 to evaluate the safety and tolerability of carisbamate in subjects with Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome (LGS).

Currently, no standard exists for the treatment and management of Low Anterior Resection Syndrome (LARS)- a common disorder that affects patients who have had part of their bowel removed due to colorectal cancer. Decisions about which treatment patients receive is at the discretion of local clinicians, leading to a variation in both clinical practice and the outcomes of these patients. As a result, there is a need for research to assess what treatments are most effective in treating or managing LARS to establish a consensus and develop a treatment pathway in the UK. This study aims to assess the feasibility of undertaking such a trial utilising a novel 'trial within cohorts (TWiCs)' study design, with a view to informing the design of a full-scale trial.
