The purpose of this clinical trial is to learn about the safety and effects of the study medicine (called ARV-471) when given together with other medicines for the potential treatment of advanced or metastatic breast cancer. This study is seeking participants who have breast cancer that: is advanced, may have spread to other organs (metastatic) and cannot be fully treated by surgery or radiation therapy is sensitive to hormonal therapy (it is called estrogen receptor positive); and is no longer responding to previous treatments This study is divided into separate sub-studies. For Sub-Study B: All participants will receive ARV-471 and a medicine called ribociclib. ARV-471 and ribociclib will be given at the same time by mouth, at home, 1 time a day. The experiences of people receiving the study medicine will be examined. This will help determine if the study medicine is safe and effective. Participants will continue to take ARV-471 and ribociclib until their cancer is no longer responding, or side effects become too severe. They will have visits at the study clinic about every 4 weeks.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the clinical outcomes of the IC-8 IOL implanted in patients with complex corneas after crystalline lens removal.

Colorectal cancers are one of the leading causes of cancer-related mortality, and the incidence is increasing day by day. For this reason, colorectal cancer surgery and postoperative analgesia have gained more importance in recent years.Although laparoscopic surgery is less invasive, it can still generate moderate to severe acute postoperative pain.For a long time, opioids have played a major role in postoperative analgesia, but heavy use of these drugs will cause adverse reactions such as nausea, vomiting and enteroparalysis, which is not conducive to rapid recovery after surgery Therefore, it is critical to developing a more effective regional analgesic technique for patients undergoing abdominal surgery . Erector spinae plane block (ESPB) is a novel interfascial plane block technique that was firstly described in 2016. It involves injecting local anesthetic into the plane between the deep fascia of the erector spinae muscle and the vertebral transverse process under ultrasound guidance to relieve pain in the thoracoabdominal region .The quadratus lumborum block (QLB) is a new posterior abdominal trunk block which produces analgesic effects through local anesthetic that covers thoracolumbar fascia and thoracic paravertebral space. Based on the injection position and approach, there are 3 QLB techniques: lateral approach, posterior approach and anterior approach. The anterior transmuscular quadratus lumborum block (TQLB) is a truncal block (ventral rami of T7- L2) that produces its analgesic effect by blocking the thoracic sympathetic trunk, the ventral rami of lower spinal nerves, the sympathetic fibers and mechanoreceptors within the thoracolumbar fascia, and the celiac ganglion by spread via the splanchnic nerves .

This randomized controlled trial aims to explore the effect of a foot strengthening protocol on toe flexion strength, foot deformation and morphology as well as kinetics during sprinting, cutting and jumping in healthy athletes (18-40 completed years). The study consists of a 4 weeks control period, followed by 8 weeks intervention period and 4 weeks follow up

The objective of this study is to test the effects of caffeine on neurocognitive and clinical recovery after major surgery. Specifically, this trial tests the primary hypothesis that caffeine will reduce the incidence of postoperative delirium.

Introduction: The increasing prevalence of obesity is particularly pronounced among adolescents. Currently available treatment options consist of structured lifestyle interventions. However, 25 % of adolescents do not respond to lifestyle treatment, why new effective treatment strategies are needed. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate the effect of lifestyle interventions combined with the GLP-1 receptor agonist semaglutide to young adults with otherwise treatment resistant obesity. Methods and analysis: This is an investigator-initiated, randomized, placebo-controlled trial. 130-170 young adults (age 18-28) will be recruited from The Children's Obesity Clinic (TCOC), Department of Pediatrics, Holbæk Hospital. Based on their previous response to the TCOC protocol the participants will be divided in three groups: Group A: Non-responders: 55-75 young adults (BMI>30 kg/m2) who have not succeeded in losing weight during the structured lifestyle intervention (BMI SDS reduction <0.1) Group B: Insufficient responders: 55-75 young adults (BMI>30 kg/m2) who have succeeded in losing weight during the structured lifestyle intervention (BMI SDS reduction >0.25), but still have obesity. Group C: Excellent responders: 20 young adults, who have succeeded in losing weight during the structured lifestyle intervention (BMI SDS reduction >0.5) and no longer have obesity (BMI<30 kg/m2). Group A and B are randomized 2:1 to either semaglutide or placebo for 68 weeks. Group C will attend baseline examinations only and not undergo intervention. The primary endpoint is change in BMI from randomization to end-of-treatment. Ethics and dissemination: The trial has been approved by the Danish Medicines Agency (EudraCT 2019-002274-31) and by the ethical committee of the Capital Region of Denmark (H-20039422). The trial will be conducted in agreement with the Declaration of Helsinki and monitored to follow the guidelines for good clinical practice. Results will be submitted for publication in international peer-reviewed scientific journals.

The proposed study aims to investigate the effect of combined transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and behavioural speech training in improving speech fluency in Cantonese-speaking adults who stutter (AWS), and to examine its maintenance over a 6-week period.

This study is a double blind comparative study examining the effectiveness of the transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation treatment on Parkinson's disease patients . We hypothesize that treatment using transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation will improve gait impairments and cortical activity in Parkinson's disease patients.

This is a phase 1 open-label, multicenter study to investigate tolerability, safety and PK properties of oral OKN-007 in patients with recurrent high-grade glioma.

Previous research has shown the efficacy of (combinations of) individual components of cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), namely sleep hygiene education, sleep restriction, stimulus control therapy, deactivation/relaxation training, and cognitive therapy. However, their relative effects, i.e., their effects in direct comparison with each other, are yet to be assessed. By means of the Multiphase Optimization Strategy (MOST), this study aims to investigate the components' relative efficacy in order to identify the most effective component or combination of components for digitized treatment of chronic insomnia. A future study will verify this intervention's effect in a randomized controlled trial (RCT).
