Gastric AdenocarcinomaGastric Cancer1 moreThis study will assess the efficacy, safety, optimal dose and ADA and NAbs development of TRK-950 at two separate dose levels in combination with ramucirumab and paclitaxel (RAM+PTX) as compared with RAM + PTX treatment alone in participants with gastric or gastro-esophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma.
Dose-Reduced Docetaxel With Cyclophosphamide for the Treatment of Vulnerable Older Women With Stage...
Anatomic Stage I Breast Cancer AJCC v8Anatomic Stage II Breast Cancer AJCC v82 moreThis phase II trial tests how well dose-reduced docetaxel combined with cyclophosphamide works in treating older women with early stage (stage I-III) HER2 negative breast cancer vulnerable to toxicity. Chemotherapy drugs, such as docetaxel and cyclophosphamide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Docetaxel and cyclophosphamide are commonly used, but is not well tolerated at the standard dose and can affect the way older patients feel physically and emotionally. Giving dose-reduced docetaxel combined with cyclophosphamide may be an effective treatment option and improve quality of life in vulnerable older women with stage I-III HER2 negative breast cancer.
ACTIV-6: COVID-19 Study of Repurposed Medications - Arm G (Metformin)
Covid19The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of repurposed medications (study drug(s) in reducing symptoms of non-hospitalized participants with mild to moderate COVID-19. Participants will receive either study drug or placebo. Participants will self-report any new or worsening symptoms or medical events experienced while taking study drug or placebo. This study is intended to be all remote with no in person visits, unless the study team feels it is in the best interest of a participant to be seen in person. Prior and current drug arms are listed on clinicaltrials.gov and will be updated with the activation of any new drug arms. Each study arm will also have its own clinicaltrials.gov entry and will include "Pro00107921" in the Unique Protocol ID.

Colorectal CancerEsophagus Cancer5 moreThis is a single-arm, open, dose-increasing phase I clinical study to explore the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic characteristics of the drug C-13-60 cells, and preliminarily observe the efficacy of the drug in CEA positive late malignant solid tumors, and explore the applicable dose regimen for phase II clinical trials.
Efficacy of Herbal Dentifrice in Treatment of Chronic Periodontitis
Chronic PeriodontitisThe study will be a single center, longitudinal prospective, triple blind (investigators, patients and statistician), randomized design. After informed consent, a target population of about 75 healthy adult volunteers with periodontitis will be included in the study. Patients will be randomized and categorized into three experimental groups each containing 25 patients. The randomization process will be carried out by use of sequentially numbered opaque sealed envelopes (SNOSE method).The recording of all the soft tissues data plaque index, gingival index, the modified sulcus bleeding index and the periodontal probing depth and clinical attachment level will be carried out at baseline, 4 weeks, 8 weeks, 12 weeks and will be maintained till 24 weeks for efficacy and safety evaluation.
A Research Study to See How Well Semaglutide Helps People Who Have a Body Weight Above the Healthy...
OverweightObesityThis study will look at how the investigational dose of semaglutide works in helping people with excess body weight, to lose weight. This study will compare the weight loss in people taking semaglutide to people taking "dummy" medicine (placebo). The study will last for about 1 year. The participants will have 12 visits at the clinic and 3 remote visits by phone calls with the study doctor or staff.
The Effects of Oxycodone Versus Sufentanil on Pain and Inflammatory Response After TACE
Hepatocellular CarcinomaTranscatheter Arterial Chemoembolization2 moreThe purpose of this randomized, double-blind trial was to compare the effects of preemptive Oxycodone and sufentanil at the same dose on pain and inflammatory response after transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) of hepatocellular carcinoma. To study the effect of single dose intravenous injection of Oxycodone and sufentanil before TACE on inflammatory reaction after TACE; And (ii) evaluate the effects of different opioid drugs on pain and nausea/vomiting after TACE.
Concurrently vs Sequentially Combined HAIC With Targeted and Immunotherapy in Potentially Resectable...
Hepatocellular CarcinomaChemotherapy Effect1 moreThe goal of this clinical trial is to compare HAIC concurrently with sequentially combined with targeted and immunotherapies in terms of efficacy and safety in patients with potentially resectable intermediate and advanced HCC (CNLC stage IIa~IIIa). The main questions it aims to answer are: Does a "strong combination" regimen of three simultaneous treatments (HAIC, targeted agents and immunotherapy) definitely result in a higher surgical conversion rate and better survival benefit? Can the combination of targeted and immunotherapies based on patients' response to HAIC therapy avoid over-treatment of some patients without affecting the surgical conversion rate and overall survival? Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either HAIC concurrently or sequentially combined with targeted and immunotherapies. Researchers will compare concurrent treatment group with sequential treatment group to see if there are different in terms of the conversion resection rate, long-term survival, and safety.

Rifampicin Susceptible Pulmonary TuberculosisA Phase 2, Single-Centre, Open-Label, Parallel Control Arm, Randomised Clinical Study to Evaluate the Early Bactericidal Activity (EBA), Safety and Tolerability of Nebulised RESP301 in Adults with Newly Diagnosed, Rifampicin Susceptible Pulmonary Tuberculosis
Effects of Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy and Pulse Electromagnetic Field Therapy on Lymphoedema...
LymphedemaLymphedema occurs not only in patients with breast cancer and gynecological cancers but also in those where lymphatic drainage is obstructed. Accumulation of lymphatic fluid within tissues results in limb swelling. Additionally, proteins present in lymphatic fluid might lead to fibrosis within tissues, causing various challenges for patients. The changes in volume and weight can significantly impact daily life activities such as eating, brushing teeth, and other routine tasks. Furthermore, it can lead to clothing difficulties and provoke unwanted attention due to aesthetic concerns. Currently, there is no definitive treatment for lymphedema. However, prospective research has shown promising results in applying extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT), originally used for musculoskeletal disorders like plantar fasciitis, tennis elbow, frozen shoulder, and non-union fractures, to lymphedema patients. Similarly, Pulse Electromagnetic Field Therapy (PEMFT), widely used for pain management and muscle strengthening, has the potential for treating lymphedema as it can enhance blood circulation and stimulate muscle contractions. This research project aims to explore the effectiveness and sustainability of using ESWT and PEMFT for lymphedema patients. By applying these therapies to lymphedema patients, this study aims to evaluate their treatment outcomes and long-term effects.
