All clinical trials

Multicentre, 2 arm, open-label UK randomised phase II trial to determine the efficacy of niraparib versus active symptom control (ASC) in patients who have relapsed after previously receiving platinum based systemic therapy. 84 patients will be recruited from approximately 10 UK trial network sites.

The objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of a combined intervention of water aerobics and Metacognitive Training (MCT), compared to each intervention separately, in people with psychosis. One purpose is to analyze the improvement of clinical, cognitive, metacognitive and psychosocial variables, motor coordination and physical health condition. Another purpose is to study the changes in SP1 and SP4 biomarker transcription levels as a function of the intervention received. The hypothesis is that the combined intervention will enhance the benefits of each intervention separately, specifically in symptoms, cognition, metacognition and psychosocial variables.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of aticaprant compared with placebo as adjunctive therapy to an antidepressant in improving depressive symptoms in adult participants with major depressive disorder (MDD) with moderate-to-severe anhedonia (ANH+) who have had an inadequate response to current antidepressant therapy with a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) or serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI).

The research objectives is to compare vitro 3D drug sensitivity test results of micro tumor (PTC) with the clinical outcomes of patients, evaluate the consistency between the test results of the technology platform and the clinical prognosis, and explore the decision-making value and guiding significance of this technology in assisting the precise treatment of colorectal cancer. The completion of this study will provide real-world data support for the clinical application of micro tumor (PTC) in vitro 3D drug sensitivity detection technology, and provide more valuable reference basis for realizing the individualization and accuracy of colorectal cancer treatment and improving the clinical benefit rate.

A Phase II Study of Cabozantinib for Patients with Recurrent or Progressive Meningioma

This early-stage research is designed to determine the efficacy of the Lumoral method in chronic periodontitis patients. Improved supragingival plaque control can help to also sustain the subgingival plaque management in the long term. In addition, the device might have a photobiomodulation effect on periodontal tissues.

This proof-of-concept study will assess safety, tolerance, and efficacy of NanoLithium® NP03 in patients with mild-to-severe Alzheimer's Disease (AD).

This clinical study is designed as a double-blind sham controlled randomised trial with the option of sham group crossover to receive the GAE treatment at 6 months after unblinding. This study will determine if embolisation of abnormal neovasculature arising from branches of the genicular arteries reduces pain in patients with knee osteoarthritis. The study patient population will consist of up to 110 subjects with knee pain for at least 3 months that is resistant to conservative treatment measures. Subjects will be treated with knee embolisation or 2 mL of saline in the sham arm. At 6 months, all subjects in the sham arm will be allowed to cross-over and receive the embolisation procedure with a follow-up duration of 18 months. The total planned study duration is 3.5 years.

Propranolol (beta-blocker), is successfully used for the treatment of infantile hemangiomas, the most common vascular tumor of newborns. The mechanism is related to its anti-angiogenetic and pro-apoptotic effects. Recently, in vitro studies demonstrated that propranolol decreased the expression of target genes of the HIF (hypoxia-inducible factor, of which the VHL gene is the main regulator) pathway in hemangioblastoma cells and affected their viability. The efficacy of propranolol (stabilization of all HB and decrease in serum VEGF levels) was demonstrated in a phase III study, but only in retinal BHs . The only study that evaluated the effect of propranolol on CNS HB was retrospective and involved a limited number of patients. Nevertheless, it showed a decrease in the growth rate of HBs. The investigator therefore propose to carry out a randomized controlled trial to study the effect of propranolol on the growth of CNS HB in patients with VHL disease (von Hippel-Lindau). The hypothesis of the present work is the following: the use of propranolol in VHL patients with CNS HB allows to decrease and/or slow down the tumor growth.

This is a multicenter, single-arm clinical study. The objective was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CSA in combination with Avatrombopag in elderly patients with very/sever aplastic anemia treated for the first time. The design was: cyclosporine 3 mg/kg orally in two divided doses, with cyclosporine trough concentrations maintained at 200-250 ng/ml for 3 months to achieve maximum efficacy, and Avatrombopag, which was administered in two dose groups, 40 mg orally once daily and 60 mg orally once daily, for a total of 24 weeks. Forty patients are expected to be enrolled in each dose group, and a total of 80 patients are expected to be enrolled if both dose groups are conducted. Evaluation endpoint: OR rate at 24 weeks of treatment.
