Active clinical trials for "Syndrome"

The objective of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of an Augmented Reality (AR) biofeedback intervention to alleviate pain symptoms in individuals suffering from chronic pain of the hand and/or the forearm.

A single-center, prospective, randomized, open-label, blinded end-point clinical trial of instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) guidance strategy impact on clinical outcomes in multivessel acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients.

Study CC-91633-AML-001 is a Phase 1, open-label, dose escalation and expansion, first-in-human (FIH) clinical study of CC-91633 (BMS-986397) in participants with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (R/R AML) or in participants with relapsed or refractory higher-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (R/R HR-MDS). The Dose Escalation part (Part A) of the study will enroll participants with R/R AML and R/R HR-MDS and will evaluate the safety and tolerability of escalating doses of CC-91633 (BMS-986397), administered orally, and determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or preliminary recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) and schedule. Throughout the study, final decisions on dose escalation/de-escalation will be made by the safety review committee (SRC). Approximately 40 participants may be enrolled in Part A of the study. The expansion part (Part B) will confirm tolerability of the selected doses and schedules and evaluate whether efficacy is in a range that warrants further clinical development. Separate expansion cohorts for participants with R/R AML and R/R HR-MDS may enroll approximately 20 to 40 response evaluable participants per cohort. Parts A and B will consist of 3 periods: Screening, Treatment, and Follow-up.

Open label, phase II study non randomized single group assignment of 20 evaluable patients 13 years and older, over 37,5 kg body-weight, with sensorineural hearing loss of at least 20 dB at 8 kHz in high frequency average (HFA), and with documented genetic mutations in the WFS1 gene and with at least one other major documented clinical symptom pertaining to Wolfram syndrome (i.e. diabetes mellitus, diabetes insipidus, optic atrophy). Every patients will receive over three years a treatment by VPA (Depakine chrono).

Are you what you eat? How can dietary components influence microbial composition of the gut and function of the peripheral and central nervous system? The gut and brain is linked through complex mechanisms of sensorimotor functions of the immune system, the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal-axis, the enteric nervous system and microbiota. In this project, a multitude of factors contributing to the bidirectional neurobiological communication along the brain-but-axis will be investigated. No disease of the brain-gut axis has been elucidated, therefore our investigations involves approaching a large span of components and processes involved in the axis. This study is carried out as a case-report study (baseline, IBS n=100, healthy controls n=40) followed by a dietary intervention (IBS-D n=60). Through multivariate analyses, the investigators will identify patterns of factors contributing to patient symptomatology and pathology, followed by big data analysis leading to stratification of sub-classification of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).

The purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate the effects of Atomoxetine, a selective noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor, on impulsivity in patients with Tourette's syndrome.

Loin Pain Hematuria Syndrome (LPHS) is a poorly understood, painful and incapacitating condition that typically afflicts young women and was first described in 1967. Currently, the treatment for LPHS is opioid prescription and in some extreme cases, surgical denervation of the nociceptive impulses with renal auto transplantation and auto nephrectomy. Radiofrequency nerve ablation is a minimally invasive alternative to opiate therapy, auto-transplantation and nephrectomy in LPHS. In the investigators' previous exploratory pre/post single centre studies, the investigators showed promising results with regards to pain relief, mood, disability and quality of life post procedure. As these initial studies were neither blinded nor randomized, improvements in pain and quality of life scores owing to a placebo effect cannot be ruled out ; hence, to rule out any cause-effect relation between treatment and outcome, selection-bias, influences the investigators intend to conduct a double-blinded, parallel group, sham-controlled, randomized controlled trial (RCT). The present study is designed to assess the feasibility of conducting a large scale randomized control trial. Study Hypothesis: In the present study the investigators hypothesize that the recruitment, intervention, measurement and trial procedures will be feasible and acceptable, thus allowing to proceed with a full randomized control trial

Emergency study to test the safety of Descartes-30 cells in patients with moderate-to-severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) AND COVID-19

The primary objective is to demonstrate the superiority of arginine-vasopressin (AVP) and hydrocortisone compared with norepinephrine regarding day-30 survival and neurological recovery in post-cardiac arrest patients with hemodynamic failure.

Novel therapy for the Long QT Syndrome based on the mechanism of action of the disease-causing mutations Long QT syndrome type 2 (LQT2) accounts for ~ 35% of all LQTS cases and is difficult to manage, as beta-blockers frequently fail to provide full protection. Most LQT2 patients (pts) have a Class 2 mutation, which implies defective "trafficking". Lumacaftor (LUM) is a drug developed and currently indicated for the treatment of cystic fibrosis (CF) in patients homozygous for the F508del mutation in the CFTR gene. LUM corrects protein folding and trafficking defects of mutant and misfolded CFTR channels, restoring their cell surface expression. The investigators recently demonstrated that LUM can rescue in vitro the LQTS phenotype observed in human induced pluripotent stem cell- derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) from pts with LQT2 Class 2 mutations (PMID: 29020304) and in these same two patients Orkambi administrated for 7 days at the same dosage approved for cystic fibrosis showed to reduce their QTc (PMID: 30753398). With the present phase II clinical trial (MAST2) the investigators will enroll 20 LQT2 patients (see inclusion and exclusion criteria) and they will test in vivo the efficacy of Orkambi in shortening their QTc. Patients will be admitted to hospital for a maximum of 7 days (minimum in-hospital stay based on evidence of QTc shortening). Orkambi will be administered at the dose approved for cystic fibrosis and during the entire period continuous ECG monitoring through both telemetry and 12-lead 24-hr Holter monitoring will be performed and QTc length and morphology will be analyzed.
