After the treatment of urogenital cancer, a person may develop lymphoedema of the leg(s) and/ or midline region. Lymphoedema is the result of a dysfunction in the lymphatic system and is characterized by excessive retention of lymphatic fluid in the interstitial compartment, adipose deposition and chronic tissue inflammation resulting in fibrosis. Clinical symptoms include abnormal tissue swelling, sensation of limb heaviness, erythema, pain, and impaired limb function. The added value of manual lymph drainage, applied in patients with mild (early) lower limb lymphoedema and in addition to skin care, exercises and a compression stocking, has never been investigated. Therefore, the objective of this randomised controlled pilot trial is to investigate the feasibility of a trial about the added value of manual lymph drainage (to skin care, exercises and wearing compression stocking) in patients with mild (early) lower limb lymphoedema. In fact, the investigators want to determine the sample size for a trial investigating the effectiveness of MLD and want to investigate the feasibility of the study design.

The primary purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of ociperlimab (BGB-A1217) in combination with tislelizumab (BGB-A317) or rituximab in participants with relapsed or refractory (R/R) diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL)

The purpose of the study is to investigate the effect of PBF-680 on the chronic inflammation and the lung function of patients with COPD on top of the standard medication. The effects of PBF-680 administration will also be examined with regards to symptom improvement and safety measures.One oral dose of PBF-680 or placebo will be administered daily for 4 weeks after randomization. The treatments will be administered double-blind with the Investigator and patient unaware of the treatment identity. A total of 102 COPD patients, either male or female, aged 40 to 80 years (inclusive) will be randomized.

This is an 8-week, double-blind, randomized placebo-controlled trial of the efficacy of a combination of extended-release naltrexone (XR-NTX) and extended-release buprenorphine (XR-BUP) compared to matched placebo injections (PBO-Inj) for the treatment of cocaine use disorder (CUD).

Our successful R01 discovered 1) the neural mechanistic difference between typically occurring convergence insufficiency (TYP-CI) and binocularly normal controls and 2) the underlying mechanism of office-based vergence and accommodative therapy (OBVAT) that is effective in remediating symptoms. Adolescent and young adult concussion is considered a substantial health problem in the United States where our team has shown that about half of patients with persistent post-concussion symptoms have convergence insufficiency (PPCS-CI), causing significant negative impact associated with reading or digital screen-related activities, and is believed to be one factor causing delayed recovery impacting return to school, sports, or work. The results of this randomized clinical trial will impact the lives of adolescents and young adults with PPCS-CI to guide professionals on how to manage and treat those with PPCS-CI by 1) comparing the differences between PPCS-CI and TYP-CI, 2) discovering the neural mechanism of OBVAT for PPCS-CI compared to standard-community concussion care, and 3) determining the effectiveness of 12 one-hour sessions compared to 16 one-hour sessions of OBVAT.

This trial is an open-label, multicenter, Phase I/IIa, dose escalation, safety, and pharmacokinetics (PK) trial of BNT142 followed by expansion cohorts in patients with Claudin 6 (CLDN6)-positive advanced tumors.

This is a multi-center, single-arm, prospective study to assess the efficacy and safety of Olaparib in men with newly diagnosed metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) who carried homologous recombination repair (HRR) gene mutations and have progressed after treatment with novel endocrine agents (NHA) in the metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer or non-metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. A total of 30 newly diagnosed mCRPC subjects with radiologically evaluable disease at baseline who have progressed on prior NHA and carry HRR gene mutations that meet the criteria will be included in the study. Eligible subjects will receive a treatment regimen of oral Olaparib tablets 300 mg twice daily until disease progression or intolerance. During the treatment and follow-up periods, all subjects will have regular visits to assess the efficacy and safety of Olaparib. Data on objective radiographic response (ORR), prostate-specific antigen response (PSA response), radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS), and time to prostate-specific antigen progression (TTPP) will be collected during the study.

This is a Phase 1/2, multicenter, open-label study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of IMP9064 as monotherapy or in combination with PARP inhibitor Senaparib in patients with advanced solid tumors

Insulin resistance and hyperglycemia predispose individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) to endothelial dysfunction and a greater risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Increased CVD risk in individuals with T2DM persists despite optimal pharmacological therapy, highlighting the need to identify complementary lifestyle interventions that improve cardiometabolic functions in this population. Evidence from animal models suggests that heat exposure improves metabolic functions. Notably, weekly heat exposure for 16 weeks blunts hyperinsulinemia and hyperglycemia induced by a high fat diet in mice. In parallel, studies in humans have shown that heat exposure improves vascular endothelial function. Based on such findings, it has been suggested that heat therapy may represent an effective lifestyle intervention to improve cardiometabolic functions. However, only 1 study has examined the impact of a heat therapy intervention on individuals with T2DM, demonstrating that 6 weeks of heat exposure reduces fasting plasma glucose and hemoglobin A1C. No study has considered potential vascular benefits of heat therapy in individuals with T2DM. This project will investigate cardiometabolic responses to repeated heat exposure in men and women with T2DM. We will test the hypothesis that 12 weeks of heat therapy improves postprandial fatty acid handling, insulin sensitivity and endothelial function in individuals with T2DM.

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of nipocalimab on total serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) in pediatric participants 2 to less than (<) 18 years of age, the safety and tolerability of treatment with nipocalimab in children and adolescents and to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of nipocalimab in children and adolescents with generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG) who have an insufficient clinical response to ongoing, stable standard-of-care therapy.
