Active clinical trials for "Syndrome"

The purpose of this study is to determine whether addition of AS101 to the standard chemotherapy regimen is effective in the treatment of newly diagnosed elderly (≥60) AML patients and AML transformed myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) patients.

The study aims to demonstrate that a simple intravenous insulin algorithm can be implemented in Latin America and will result in safe and better glucose control in patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) compared with SC insulin.

To document therapeutic gain achieved by cyclic application of L-ascorbic acid (LAA) supplementation and depletion, while confirming safety and avoidance of clinically significant scurvy, in chemorefractory patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS).

Idiopathic Nephrotic Syndrome (INS) is the first glomerulopathy in children and 60% of the patients develop Steroid-Dependant Nephrotic Syndrome (SDNS). Recently, rituximab (RTX), a humanized anti-CD20 antibody depleting B cells demonstrated the ability to increase relapse free survival and to decrease the number of relapse and the need of other immunosuppressive drugs. However, the remission rate after 2 years is only 30 to 40%. The aim of the study is to study the ability of intravenous Immunoglobulin to improve remission rate in SDNS when added associated with Rituximab compared to a treatment by Rituximab alone.

DNA Acetylation can be responsible for significant down-regulation of transcription of the Norepinephrine Transporter (NET). NET is an important clearance transporter that removes norepinephrine (NE) from sympathetic neuronal synapses. Very low levels of NET can "cause" Postural Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) or make these patients more susceptible to certain medications. Quantified NET messenger RNA (mRNA) levels from a peripheral blood sample may be able to assess NET availability, which is simpler than older methods. This has not been validated against NET function. In this protocol, the investigators seek to assess whether these NET mRNA levels correlate with NET function. The investigators will assess the DHPG (NET dependent NE metabolite):NE ratio in POTS patients and control subjects from both plasma and urine samples.

The study is to evaluate safety and efficacy of IBI188 in combination with azacitidine (AZA) as a first-line treatment in subjects with newly diagnosed higher risk myelodysplastic syndrome

This is a Phase II, single arm, open-label study to determine if treatment with eculizumab prolongs pregnancy compared to historical controls in women with preeclampsia between 23-30 weeks gestation.

This is a non-interventional registry of children treated with Norditropin® for short stature due to Noonan Syndrome (NS). This study aims to provide data on long-term growth evolution and safety of Norditropin® as well as Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) data. This registry will include the entirety of children treated with Norditropin® for short stature due to NS over the inclusion period. The decision to initiate treatment with commercially available Norditropin® is made by the patient/parents/Legally Acceptable Representative (LAR) and the treating physician before and independently from the decision to include the patient in this study.

Patients with a non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS) are currently transported and admitted to the nearest emergency department (ED) for risk stratification, diagnostic workup, and treatment. Recently, several prospective studies have been performed on the diagnostic performance of point-of-care (POC)-troponin and combined risk scores (CRS) for pre-hospital risk assessment and triage of NSTE-ACS patients. Also the first intervention trials on triage decisions based on POC troponin and CRS have been performed. Initial results are indicating that prehospital triage based on these diagnostic tools is feasible and safe, although sample sizes were relatively small and underpowered to detect differences in major adverse cardiac events (MACE). The objective of this individual patient data meta-analysis is to determine the diagnostic performance of POC troponin and combined risk scores for prehospital risk assessment and triage in suspected NSTE-ACS patients.

The primary objective of the study is to assess the performance of the French version of the Cerebellar Cognitive-Affective Syndrome Scale (CCASS) as a screening test for cerebellar cognitive-affective syndrome. The primary endpoint will be the sensitivity of version 1A of the French scale. The result will be considered positive if the patient fails at least one of the scale's subtests. The diagnosis of a cerebellar cognitive-affective syndrome will be made on the basis of a pathological score in the executive, language, visuospatial or psychoaffective domains of the neuropsychological evaluation (gold standard).
