Tislelizumab is an anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody with high binding affinity for PD-1 and with minimized Fcγ receptor binding on macrophages. Regorafenib has been approved in mCRC by CFDA. Hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy has a high local control rate for liver metastases. NCCN guidelines and several expert consensus recommend that regional hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy can be considered as a "rescue treatment" for patients with colorectal cancer liver metastases who fail to receive first-line or second-line systemic chemotherapy, which can significantly prolong the overall survival of patients.

Chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) is the leading cause of death in women in the most developed regions of Brazil. The primary etiopathogenic mechanism is the process of atherosclerosis. A healthy diet rich in fruits and vegetables is associated with a lower incidence of CCS. The higher consumption of these foods promotes greater availability of phenolic compounds, and the higher intake of these compounds is one of the main hypotheses for vascular health. Quercetin, a phenolic compound, is the most abundant natural antioxidant belonging to the group of flavonoids. Quercetin improves lipoprotein metabolism, has an antioxidant capacity, produces vasodilating substances in the vascular endothelium, and reduces platelet aggregability. Likewise, statins are medications known to reduce cardiovascular events in women with CCS by reducing serum LDL-cholesterol levels and, to a lesser extent, by possible pleiotropic effects. In turn, SIRT1 is one of the 7 classes of proteins. It mediates various metabolic pathways in response to nutritional stimuli, particularly for caloric restriction and phenolic compounds, as well as coordinating the production and secretion of important hormones. However, the impact of quercetin supplementation and statin administration on serum endogenous estrogen levels is unknown

The research aims to compare the efficacy of topical Pridocaine cream (lidocaine 2.5% and prilocaine 2.5%) and the standardized local lidocaine infiltration in pain management before pleurocentesis.

The purpose of this study is to find out whether selinexor is an effective treatment for people under the age of 51 who have a relapsed/refractory Wilms tumor, rhabdoid tumor, MPNST, or another solid tumor that makes a higher than normal amount of XPO1 or has genetic changes that increase the activity of XP01.

The goal of this multicentre, randomized and controlled cross-over trial is to evaluate the efficacy of a programme of Inspiratory Muscle Training in subjects with Late On-set Pompe Disease (LOPD). The main question is to: verify changes in Forced Vital Capacity, Postural Drop, Maximal Inspiratory Pressure, Maximal Expiratory Pressure, Peak expiratory cough pressure, Maximal Inspiratory Capacity, six- minute walk test and or 6-minute pegboard ring test.- measure changes in some questionnaries investigating dispnoea and quality of life (Short-Form 36, Individualized-Neuromuscular-Quality-of-Life, Maugeri-Respiratory-Failure 28, Borg scale, Dispnoea 12, Mulditimensional Dispnea Profile, modified Medical Research Council, Fatigue Severity Scale, Epsworth Scale, Visual Analogue Scale). Measurement will take place at baseline and after one, three, four, six and twelve months. Participants will undergo a specific treatment consisting of aerobic exercise and Inspiratory Muscle Training with Powerbreathe device or Air-Stacking. Researchers will study if Powerbreathe device is more effective than Air-stacking maneuvres

This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of the BCL2 inhibitor BGB-11417 in participants with relapsed/refractory Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia (R/R WM) in 3 cohorts.

Atopic dermatitis, which is also known as atopic eczema, is a common inflammatory and chronic skin disease that is characterized by severe recurrent erythematous and pruritic lesions. Patients suffer from decreased quality of life and poor work productivity due to the disease complications like persistent scratching, skin pain, skin damage, sleep disturbances, and social/emotional distress. In the United States (US), the prevalence of adults with atopic dermatitis ranges from 5% to 10%. The mainstay treatment for atopic dermatitis is emollient and tropical corticosteroids which could be efficient for less severe atopic dermatitis patients but moderate to severe patients usually need additional therapies like phototherapy or systemic medications. It is revealed that Janus kinase signal transducers and activators of transcription (JAK-STAT) pathway has a prominent role in the development and progression of atopic dermatitis. JAK1/JAK2 inhibitor, baricitinib is a new-class orally available drug that is approved for systemic treatment of adult patients with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis. In the phase III clinical trial baricitinib 2-mg and 4-mg were shown efficient results as monotherapy of adult patients with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis who have an inadequate response to topical corticosteroids (TCS). Azathioprine is an immunosuppressant and antimetabolite agent interferes with the formation of lymphocytes, and suppresses prostaglandin synthesis, both of which are implicated in the inflammation associated with eczema. Azathioprine can be used (off-label) for moderate to severe atopic dermatitis patients. Multiple studies have demonstrated that azathioprine might be effective for patients with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis. Azathioprine is usually prescribed when cyclosporine is either contraindicated or not effective. This trial will be conducted to test the hypothesis that baricitinib 4-mg daily in combination with TCS is superior to azathioprine 1.5-2.5 mg/kg a day in combination with TCS for moderate-to-severe AD at week 12 in terms of efficacy and safety.

PPI-1011 is being developed as a docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) containing plasmalogen precursor with good long-term stability, specifically for the treatment of rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata (RCDP), which is an ultra rare type of peroxisomal biogenesis disorder (PBD). The goal of treatment with PPI-1011 is to increase the levels of plasmalogens within circulation and tissues, with the hope that this will normalize plasmalogen levels in the body and result in clinical improvement to patients. The present study is a first-in-human (FIH), phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-escalation study to assess the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK) of single and multiple ascending doses of PPI-1011 administered orally to healthy subjects. The study consists of 5 planned single-dose cohorts (n = 8 per cohort, total randomized 6 active: 2 placebo) with sentinel design. Following a review of the safety and PK data by the safety review committee and submission to Health Canada the study will be expanded to include 2 planned multiple-dose cohorts (n = 8 per cohort, total randomized 6 active: 2 placebo).

In this project, the investigator aims to provide the level 1 evidence for the comparison of robotic versus laparoscopic NOSE for the surgery of stage I-III colorectal cancer. the investigator hypothesize that, with the increased maneuverability of the current robotic system, robotic surgery will be a good option for patients with stage I-III colorectal cancer requiring a NOSE procedure.

The purpose of the study is to provide a first assessment of safety, tolerability and efficacy of Ir-CPI, administered on top of standard-of-care, on secondary brain injury in patients with spontaneous intracerebral haemorrhage.
