All clinical trials

This study is open to adults who have different levels of liver problems and adults who are healthy. People with or without overweight or obesity can take part. This study has 2 parts. The purpose of Part 1 is to find out whether having liver problems influences how BI 456906 is taken up in the body. The purpose of Part 2 is to find out whether having liver problems influences how people with overweight and obesity tolerate different doses of BI 456906. In Part 1, participants get a single injection of BI 456906 under their skin and stay at the study site for 2 nights afterwards. They are in the study for about a month. During this time, they visit the study site about 8 more times. The doctors compare the amount of BI 456906 in the blood of healthy people and people with liver problems. In Part 2, participants get 1 or 2 injections of BI 456906 once a week under their skin for 28 weeks. At the beginning, they get lower doses of BI 456906. Over time, they get higher doses until they reach a certain dose of BI 456906. This dose is then maintained until the end of the treatment. Participants in Part 2 are in the study for about 7 months. During this time, they visit the study site about 16 times and get about 15 phone calls from the site staff. The doctors record the number of people with health problems that could have been caused by treatment with BI 456906. They compare the results between participants with liver problems and those without liver problems. In both parts, doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.

This phase 1, first-in-human study uses a BOIN design to assess the safety and potential efficacy of JS014 at different dose levels as a single agent and in combination with fixed dose of pembrolizumab in subjects with advanced cancer.

The study will evaluate the efficacy of bilateral infraorbital nerve block versus preoperative nasal packing with long-acting local anesthetic bupivacaine in term of maintaining hemodynamics intraoperative within 20% below baseline to achieve adequate hypotensive anesthesia and longer duration of postoperative analgesia up to 24 hours in patients undergoing transsphenoidal pituitary adenoma resection.

A global study to evaluate transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) in combination with durvalumab, tremelimumab and lenvatinib therapy in patients with locoregional hepatocellular carcinoma

Achilles tendinopathy (AT) is one of the most reported myotendinous pathologies due to overuse in the literature. In the general adult population, its incidence is 2.35 cases per 1,000 patients, with no difference between men and women. The international literature reports that up to 29% of patients fail with conservative treatment. Within physiotherapy, new alternatives for the treatment of tendinopathies arise, applying electric currents percutaneously, which from a mechanical effect associated to the use of a needle and an electric effect by the use of galvanic currents, generate a local inflammatory response; activation of the central nervous system and analgesia. The aim of the research is to evaluate the efficacy of adding low intensity percutaneous electrolysis to the treatment with a high load eccentric exercise program based on the protocol of Silbernagel et al. in adults with Achilles tendinopathy to improve its functionality. A randomized, double-blind, blinded, evaluator-blinded, controlled clinical trial will be conducted in parallel groups (experimental treatment vs. sham treatment), with a follow-up at 26 and 52 weeks after the first intervention. Non-probability and intentional sampling will be performed.

This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of SHR-1701 combined with radiotherapy and chemotherapy as perioperative treatment for locally advanced rectal cancer. Eligible patients will receive standard chemoradiation with SHR-1701 followed by XELOX combined with SHR-1701. In all subjects, restaging pelvic MRI with chest and abdominal CT will be performed after completion of neoadjuvant treatment to determine resectability and to rule out any evidence of metastases. Subjects who have resectable disease will undergo surgery. Adjuvant XELOX combined with SHR-1701 will be given after surgery.

Social anxiety disorder (SAD) has a high prevalence and an early onset and has a lengthy recovery period often taking decades to occur. Current evidence supports the efficacy of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) with virtual reality (VR) exposure. However, the evidence is based on a small number of studies. This trial examines the efficacy of an intervention that combines CBT with individually tailored exposure in VR. During exposure, participants' anxiety level is estimated in real time based on heart rate and electrodermal activity. Estimated anxiety level can guide the therapist's adjustment of the VR content. The above treatment is compared with the gold standard treatment for SAD which is cognitive behavioral therapy with exposure conducted in real life. Treatment is individual, manual-based and consists of 10 weekly sessions with a duration of 60 minutes. The aim of the study is to investigate whether CBT combined with exposure in VR (adapted on the basis of estimated anxiety level) is more effective than CBT with exposure in real life. The trial is a randomized controlled trail (RCT). The study includes 90 participants diagnosed with SAD. Assessments are carried out pre-treatment, mid-treatment and at follow-up (6 and 12 months). The primary outcome of the study is self-reported symptoms of social anxiety using Social Interaction Anxiety Scale. The primary endpoint is post-treatment.
