This is a phase I clinical study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of CAR-T in patients with CEA-positive advanced/metastatic solid tumors, and to obtain the maximum tolerated dose of CAR-T and phase II Recommended dose.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the efficacy and safety of Fruquintinib with mFOLFOX6/FOLFIRI in patients with mCRC. The main question it aims to answer is: The conversion surgery rate of the therapy mentioned above. The ORR, R0 surgery rate, DCR, PFS, OS, and safety will be evaluated.

The goal of this current study is to evaluate the efficacy of treatment of postpartum patients with suspected retained products of conception (RPOC) with Misoprostol in reducing the frequency of postpartum RPOC compared to a control group of patients that will be managed expectantly, in a prospective randomized trial.

Previous studies have shown that perioperative intravenous iron has a beneficial effect on patients with perioperative anaemia. To assess whether a combined iron supplementation regimen can reduce perioperative allogeneic blood transfusions in patients with iron deficiency anaemia undergoing major cardiac surgery under haemodynamic anaesthesia, a multicentre randomised clinical trial (CIPAT study) will be conducted. In the CIPAT study, patients undergoing elective major cardiac surgery under general anaesthesia will be randomly allocated to a control group and a combined iron supplementation group. Patients in the combined iron supplementation group will receive a combination iron supplementation regimen of iron sucrose in combination with Human Erythropoietin and vitamin C three times in the week prior to surgery, while patients in the control group will receive the same dose of placebo three times in the week prior to surgery. The primary endpoint is the volume of allogeneic erythrocyte infusion from the start of surgery to 5 days postoperatively. It is hypothesised that patients in the combined iron supplementation group will have fewer perioperative allogeneic red blood cell transfusions than those in the control group.

The goal of root canal therapy is thorough disinfection and obturation of the root canal system in all its dimensions and promote periradicular tissue repair.This study was done to compare the postopertaive pain after single visit endodontics using resin based sealer and zinc oxide eugeonal sealer

This is an prospective study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of naxitamab monotherapy or combined with chemotherapy or combined with chemotherapy and checkpoint inhibitor in the treatment of pediatric high-risk and refractory/relapsed neuroblastoma in Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center.

The objective of the prospective monocentric pilot trial is to investigate the influence of intermittent fasting with or without a once-daily intake with medium chain triglycerides (MCTs) on the frequency of seizures in patients with therapy-refractory epilepsy. The effects of 12 weeks intermittent fasting according to the 16:8 method (IF 16:8) are compared to 12 weeks intermittent fasting with additional intake of exogenous MCTs (IF MCT 16:8) in a within-subject-crossover-design in 28 patients with drug-resistant epilepsy.

The goal of this clinical trial] is to compare the outcomes between induction to labour at home versus hospitalized. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can the induction to labour at home with cervical rippening ballon increase the vaginal delivery rate? Will the induction to labour at home increase maternal satisfaction Will the induction to labour at home improve medical circuits and coulb it be cost effective? Participants who meet inclusion criteria will undergo randomization so as to be asignated an induction to labour at home or in the hospital. Researchers will compare both labour induction groups to see if the induction to labour at home has better outcomes as described previously.

The purpose of this clinical trial is to administer a sodium pyruvate nasal spray that eliminates nasal oxidative stresses, caused by oxygen radicals, and demonstrate the efficacy of sodium pyruvate to reduce coughing and increase lung functions in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. This will be a 21-day double-blinded randomized placebo-controlled trial designed to determine if patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis treated with 20mM sodium pyruvate in 0.9% sodium chloride nasal spray solution will have reduced chronic coughing, as well as increased lung function (FEV1, FVC endpoints of 12% or more within the first week) and improved FEV1/FVC ratios.

This clinical trial evaluates the effects of an empty bladder versus (vs.) a full bladder prior to undergoing a computed tomography (CT) simulation for radiation therapy in patients with prostate cancer. Radiation therapy is a commonly used treatment for men diagnosed with prostate cancer. Prior to initiation of a course of radiotherapy, all patients with prostate cancer undergo a CT simulation that allows for computer-based optimization of radiation dose delivery to the target tissue (i.e., prostate) and simultaneous dose minimization to surrounding normal tissues, such as bladder and rectum. Patients are typically given standard instructions for preparation to present with a reproducible full bladder at the time of CT simulation and for each subsequent radiation treatment appointment. The goal of bladder distension is to displace portions of the bladder and bowel away from the highest dose radiation delivery to the prostate. However, as typical urinary symptoms related to radiotherapy develop during treatment, some patients are unable to reproduce the bladder distention achieved at the time of CT simulation. This can result in increased daily treatment time, sub-optimal reproducibility of patient internal anatomy, and increased stress for patients and radiation therapy staff. This trial will evaluate the effects of an empty bladder vs. a full bladder prior to CT simulation and radiation therapy in patients with prostate cancer and how it effects patient reported outcomes.
