| Progression-Free Survival (PFS) | PFS was defined as the time from date of randomization to the first observation of progressive disease (PD) or death due to any cause. For participants not known to have died as of the data cutoff date and who did not have objective PD, PFS was censored at the date of the last objective progression-free assessment. For participants who received subsequent anticancer therapy (after discontinuation from all study treatment) prior to objective disease progression or death, PFS was censored at the date of the last objective progression-free assessment prior to the initiation of post-discontinuation anticancer therapy. | Randomization to measured PD or death from any cause up to 12.2 months |
|
| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Percentage of Participants With Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) (Response Rate) | Tumor response rate was defined as number of participants with overall best response of CR or PR over number of protocol qualified participants using the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST v1.0) criteria. CR was defined as the disappearance of all tumor lesions. PR was defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter (LD) of target lesions taking as reference the baseline sum of LDs or complete disappearance of target lesions, with persistence (but not worsening) of 1 or more non-target lesions. In either case, no new lesions may have appeared.~Percentage of participants was calculated as: (number of participants with CR or PR/ number of participants qualified for tumor response analysis) × 100. | Randomization to measured progressive disease or death from any cause up to 12.2 months |
| Overall Survival (OS) | OS was defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of death from any cause. For participants who were not known to have died as of the data cutoff, OS was censored at the last contact date. | Randomization to date of death up to 14.3 months |
| Time to Progressive Disease (TTPD) | TTPD was defined as the time from the date of randomization until the first date of objectively determined progressive disease (PD). For participants who died without objective PD (including death from study disease), TTPD was censored at the date of the last objective progression-free disease assessment. For participants not known to have died as of the data cutoff and did not have PD, TTPD was censored at the date of the last objective progression-free disease assessment. | Randomization to measured PD or death from any cause up to 12.2 months |
| Duration of Response (DoR) | The duration of a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) was defined as the time from first objective status assessment of CR or PR to the first time of progression or death from any cause. Response was defined using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST v1.0) criteria. CR was defined as the disappearance of all target lesions and PR was defined as having at least a 30% decrease in sum of longest diameter (LD) of target lesions taking as reference the baseline sum of LDs. For participants who died without progressive disease or who were alive, DoR was censored at the last contact of progression free assessment. For participants who received subsequent anticancer therapy (after discontinuation from all study treatment) prior to PD, DoR was censored at the date of last progression-free assessment prior to the initiation of post-discontinuation anticancer therapy. Due to early study closure, DoR was not analyzed. | Time of response to disease progression or death from any cause up to 12.2 months |
| Pharmacology Toxicity and Adverse Events (AEs) | Clinically significant events were defined as serious AEs (SAEs) and other non-serious AEs. Participants who died due to progressive disease (PD) or an AE while on treatment and or died during the 30 day post-treatment follow-up are included. A summary of SAEs and other non-serious AEs, regardless of causality, is located in the Reported Adverse Events module. | Randomization up to 14.3 months and 30-day follow-up |

CR was defined as the disappearance of all target lesions and PR was defined as having at least a 30% decrease in sum of longest diameter (LD) of target lesions taking as reference the baseline sum of LDs. For participants who died without progressive disease or who were alive, DoR was censored at the last contact of progression free assessment. For participants who received subsequent anticancer therapy (after discontinuation from all study treatment) prior to PD, DoR was censored at the date of last progression-free assessment prior to the initiation of post-discontinuation anticancer therapy. Due to early study closure, DoR was not analyzed. | Time of response to disease progression or death from any cause up to 12.2 months |
| Pharmacology Toxicity and Adverse Events (AEs) | Clinically significant events were defined as serious AEs (SAEs) and other non-serious AEs. Participants who died due to progressive disease (PD) or an AE while on treatment and or died during the 30 day post-treatment follow-up are included. A summary of SAEs and other non-serious AEs, regardless of causality, is located in the Reported Adverse Events module. | Randomization up to 14.3 months and 30-day follow-up |

Methylene Blue Against Vivax Malaria in Ethiopia
|
Feasibility of methylene blue-based combination therapy in the radical treatment of adult patients with Plasmodium vivax malaria in Ethiopia: a randomised controlled pilot trial~Study rationale:~Elimination has become the goal of malaria programmes in an increasing number of endemic countries and regions. Primaquine (PQ) is the only registered drug for radical cure of Plasmodium vivax malaria. Prolonged PQ-based combination therapy carries safety concerns and resistance to chloroquine (CQ) and PQ is emerging. Methylene blue (MB) has recently been shown to be safe and effective in the treatment of Plasmodium falciparum malaria in West Africa. As there is evidence for MB probably being effective against the hypnozoites of Plasmodium vivax, MB-based drug regimens could be an alternative to PQ-based combination therapy in Plasmodium vivax malaria.~Study objectives:~The main objective of this trial is to study the feasibility of MB-based combination therapy in patients with uncomplicated P. vivax malaria in an endemic area of Ethiopia.
|
The specific aims are (1) to test the feasibility and costs of methods and procedures for later use of MB-based combination therapy on a large scale, (2) to assess the safety of MB-based combination therapy, (3) to estimate the efficacy of MB-based combination therapy against malaria relapse, (4) to study the community acceptance of MB-based combination therapy, and (5) to strengthen the local capacity for malaria research and control in Jimma/Ethiopia.~Study design:~The study is designed as a pilot trial in adult patients with uncomplicated P. vivax malaria in Jimma, Ethiopia. Patients will be randomised to three treatment groups:~Arthemeter/Lumefantrine (AL)~AL-PQ, and~AL-MB. Follow-up will be over a period of 6 months.~Study population:~Adult patients with uncomplicated P. vivax malaria (age ≥18 years) in Jimma/Ethiopia (G6PD deficient subjects are excluded) will become enrolled in the outpatient departments of the study centres. The sample size will be 33 per study arm, a total of 99 patients.~Study treatments:~AL standard treatments twice daily (total of 80 mg/dose A plus 480 mg/dose L) over first three study days~PQ 15 mg once daily for 14 days~MB 780 mg once daily for 14 days Treatments will be 100% directly observed.~Study outcomes:~Outcome parameters will be on feasibility and costs (e.g. recruitment rates, retention rates, costs per patient), on safety parameters (e.g. haemoglobin development during follow-up, incidence of adverse events), on efficacy parameters (e.g. incidence of P. vivax relapse during follow-up, malaria recurrence-free efficacy until day 180), and on community acceptance (e.g. perceptions on blue urine) during follow-up.

Acute Myocardial Infarction and Acute Cerebral Infarction (AMIAC) Registry and Follow-up
|
A registry of consecutive patients who were admitted and diagnosed with acute myocardial infarction or acute cerebral infarction were conducted at the Guangdong General Hospital or the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine, Yue Bei People's Hospital, China, between January 2000 and December 2016. The adverse clinical outcomes, including all-cause mortality, were followed from the date of admission for acute myocardial infarction or acute cerebral infarction until study end (December 31, 2016). All-cause mortality, including the date of death, was identified from the electronic hospitalization data, phone follow-up, and confirmed by the household registration (HUKOU) system, a record of registration required by law in China. Baseline characteristics, including major treatment of acute myocardial infarction or acute cerebral infarction, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and proteinuria, were collected. Demographic data were determined from the electronic hospitalization data and electronic hospital discharge records. All comorbid conditions were identified using International Statistical Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision (ICD-10), coding algorithms applied to electronic physician claims and electronic hospital discharge records. Life style (smoking), treatment regimen at discharge, including angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI), angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB), were determined from the electronic hospitalization data.

A Gene Transfer Study for Hemophilia A
|
This clinical research study is being conducted by Spark Therapeutics, Inc. to determine the safety and efficacy of the factor VIII gene transfer treatment with SPK-8011 in individuals with hemophilia A.
|
Hemophilia A is a condition in which blood is unable to clot effectively. It is caused by a mutation or deletion in the gene that is responsible for producing blood-clotting factor VIII protein. Individuals with hemophilia A suffer from repeated bleeding episodes, often into the joints, which can cause chronic joint disease and sometime results in death due to the inability of the blood to clot efficiently. This chronic joint disease can have significant physical, psychosocial, and quality-of-life effects, including financial burden. The current treatment is intravenous (i.v.) injections of factor VIII protein products, either 2-3 times weekly or in response to bleeding.~Recent preliminary clinical data of a hemophilia B gene transfer study (which is also being conducted by Spark Therapeutics) shows all study participants achieving therapeutic factor IX activity levels (average of maintaining factor IX activity levels around 30% of normal with no confirmed bleeds, after receiving Spark gene transfer, with the approach of using the novel bio-engineered recombinant adeno-associated viral (rAAV) vector carrying a high specific activity of a factor IX gene. The approach being tested in this clinical research study uses a further modified novel AAV vector (with a stronger attraction to the human liver) to deliver the human factor VIII (hFVIII) gene into liver cells so that they can produce factor VIII protein.

The Effects of Dexmedetomidine on the Heart Beat During Elective Surgery in Children
|
Dexmedetomidine is a sedative drug that is commonly used to improve calmness and reduce pain in children waking up after surgery. Some of the side effects of dexmedetomidine, such as a potential change in how the heart muscles contract and changes in blood sugar and potassium levels, are poorly understood. The current study aims to examine these changes directly in healthy children undergoing elective surgery by measuring the heart beats (with an electrocardiogram) and blood sugar and potassium at specific times before and after dexmedetomidine is given. The investigators aim to establish a better understanding of this drug's safety profile.
|
Purpose:~This study is being conducted to evaluate the effect of three different doses of dexmedetomidine (Precedex® , Hospira Healthcare) on myocardial repolarization, and blood glucose and potassium levels in children undergoing elective surgery.~Hypotheses:~The investigators hypothesize that administering a dexmedetomidine bolus will have some effect on myocardial repolarization, blood glucose, and potassium concentrations in a dose-dependent manner, whereas a saline bolus will not.~Justification:~Dexmedetomidine is a potent, centrally acting α-2 adrenoreceptor agonist with sympatholytic, sedative, amnestic, anxiolytic and analgesic effects, which properties make it popular for use in both pediatric anesthesia and intensive care. In 2013, dexmedetomidine was added to the possible risk factor for torsades de pointes (TdP) drug list on crediblemeds.org. Clinicians are currently advised to be vigilant about potential QT prolongation with dexmedetomidine, especially in patients with congenital long QT syndrome (LQTS). However, current evidence for dexmedetomidine-induced prolonged QT is sparse and somewhat contradictory, and the effect of dexmedetomidine on the Tp-e interval has yet to be reported in detail in adults or children. Another poorly defined pharmacodynamic effect of dexmedetomidine is its effect on blood glucose concentration. Theoretically, dexmedetomidine would be expected to cause hypoinsulinaemia and a resultant increase in blood glucose levels (hyperglycemia). Previous studies are in contrast to this however; with reports of hypoglycemia after large doses of the drug. Considering the use of dexmedetomidine in pediatric anesthesia, pediatric intensive care and its increasing use in the neonatal population, increased knowledge of the effect of dexmedetomidine on blood glucose would be valuable.~Finally, hypokalemia is listed as a treatment-emergent adverse event occurring in >2% of adult patients receiving dexmedetomidine in long-term intensive care unit sedation studies. The effect of dexmedetomidine on serum potassium levels in healthy children has yet to be elucidated. Given that hypokalemia increases the risk of TdP, and that there is a possibility that dexmedetomidine may be torsadogenic, this effect is also worthy of investigation.~In sum, the use of dexmedetomidine is associated with many clinical benefits, but its effects on indices of myocardial repolarization, as well as its effects on glucose and potassium metabolism, remain poorly understood and need to be better defined in order to use this drug safely and effectively.~Objectives:~The primary objective of this study is to investigate the effects of three different doses of dexmedetomidine (0.25/0.5/0.75 mcg/kg) on indices of myocardial repolarization (QTc and Tp-e intervals). As a secondary objective, this study will also sample blood glucose and potassium levels before and after dexmedetomidine administration to ascertain if there is any significant effect of a single bolus dose on blood glucose concentrations.~Research Method:~The investigators propose a randomized, single-blinded, 4-group comparative study to characterize the effects of different doses of dexmedetomidine on myocardial repolarization and blood glucose levels in healthy children undergoing elective surgery. The study-specific interventions will include giving a bolus of dexmedetomidine (0.25/0.5/0.75 mcg/kg; or 10mL saline) after induction of general anesthesia, recording two 12-lead ECGs (one before and one after dexmedetomidine administration), and taking three venous blood samples (one before and two after dexmedetomidine administration) to measure glucose and potassium. If the anesthetist would like to administer dexmedetomidine to a participant in the control (saline) group as part of their normal practice, they can do so after the study period is over (after the last blood sample).

The Effects of Dexmedetomidine on the Heart Beat During Elective Surgery in Children
Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
Dexmedetomidine is a sedative drug that is commonly used to improve calmness and reduce pain in children waking up after surgery. Some of the side effects of dexmedetomidine, such as a potential change in how the heart muscles contract and changes in blood sugar and potassium levels, are poorly understood. The current study aims to examine these changes directly in healthy children undergoing elective surgery by measuring the heart beats (with an electrocardiogram) and blood sugar and potassium at specific times before and after dexmedetomidine is given. The investigators aim to establish a better understanding of this drug's safety profile.
Detailed Description
-----------------
Purpose: This study is being conducted to evaluate the effect of three different doses of dexmedetomidine (Precedex® , Hospira Healthcare) on myocardial repolarization, and blood glucose and potassium levels in children undergoing elective surgery. Hypotheses: The investigators hypothesize that administering a dexmedetomidine bolus will have some effect on myocardial repolarization, blood glucose, and potassium concentrations in a dose-dependent manner, whereas a saline bolus will not. Justification: Dexmedetomidine is a potent, centrally acting α-2 adrenoreceptor agonist with sympatholytic, sedative, amnestic, anxiolytic and analgesic effects, which properties make it popular for use in both pediatric anesthesia and intensive care. In 2013, dexmedetomidine was added to the possible risk factor for torsades de pointes (TdP) drug list on crediblemeds.org. Clinicians are currently advised to be vigilant about potential QT prolongation with dexmedetomidine, especially in patients with congenital long QT syndrome (LQTS). However, current evidence for dexmedetomidine-induced prolonged QT is sparse and somewhat contradictory, and the effect of dexmedetomidine on the Tp-e interval has yet to be reported in detail in adults or children. Another poorly defined pharmacodynamic effect of dexmedetomidine is its effect on blood glucose concentration. Theoretically, dexmedetomidine would be expected to cause hypoinsulinaemia and a resultant increase in blood glucose levels (hyperglycemia). Previous studies are in contrast to this however; with reports of hypoglycemia after large doses of the drug. Considering the use of dexmedetomidine in pediatric anesthesia, pediatric intensive care and its increasing use in the neonatal population, increased knowledge of the effect of dexmedetomidine on blood glucose would be valuable. Finally, hypokalemia is listed as a treatment-emergent adverse event occurring in >2% of adult patients receiving dexmedetomidine in long-term intensive care unit sedation studies. The effect of dexmedetomidine on serum potassium levels in healthy children has yet to be elucidated. Given that hypokalemia increases the risk of TdP, and that there is a possibility that dexmedetomidine may be torsadogenic, this effect is also worthy of investigation. In sum, the use of dexmedetomidine is associated with many clinical benefits, but its effects on indices of myocardial repolarization, as well as its effects on glucose and potassium metabolism, remain poorly understood and need to be better defined in order to use this drug safely and effectively. Objectives: The primary objective of this study is to investigate the effects of three different doses of dexmedetomidine (0.25/0.5/0.75 mcg/kg) on indices of myocardial repolarization (QTc and Tp-e intervals). As a secondary objective, this study will also sample blood glucose and potassium levels before and after dexmedetomidine administration to ascertain if there is any significant effect of a single bolus dose on blood glucose concentrations. Research Method: The investigators propose a randomized, single-blinded, 4-group comparative study to characterize the effects of different doses of dexmedetomidine on myocardial repolarization and blood glucose levels in healthy children undergoing elective surgery. The study-specific interventions will include giving a bolus of dexmedetomidine (0.25/0.5/0.75 mcg/kg; or 10mL saline) after induction of general anesthesia, recording two 12-lead ECGs (one before and one after dexmedetomidine administration), and taking three venous blood samples (one before and two after dexmedetomidine administration) to measure glucose and potassium. If the anesthetist would like to administer dexmedetomidine to a participant in the control (saline) group as part of their normal practice, they can do so after the study period is over (after the last blood sample).

Study to Develop a Non-invasive Marker for Monitoring Myocardial Fibrosis
|
The objective is to determine whether 99Technetium-NC100692 uptake in patients with ACS (MI) can serve as a marker for scar formation as detected by contrast-enhanced MRI during the process of myocardial remodelling after the ischemic insult.~Comparison of ACS and HCM Populations:~The primary objective is to determine whether TcNC100692 imaging is able to quantify the extent to which myocardial fibrogenesis occurring early post myocardial infarction differs from that in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.~The primary hypothesis is that since fibrogenesis is known to occur most intensely in the first days to weeks post myocardial infarction, while it is a more protracted, less predictable process in HCM, there will be significantly more TcNC100692 uptake in the early post-ACS population than in the HCM population.~Control Population:~Normal control images will allow for differentiation of uptake in the myocardium.
|
HCM Population:~The primary objective is to determine whether fibrosis detected by MRI and 99mTc-NC100692 uptake in patients with HCM are associated. The secondary objective is to determine whether 99mTc-NC100692 uptake correlates on a segmental basis with fibrosis visualised by late Gd-enhancement MRI. The tertiary objective is to evaluate the relationship between the extent of fibrosis assessed by 99mTc-NC100692 uptake and mean longitudinal strain as determined by speckle tracking echocardiography.~The primary hypothesis is that there is an increased uptake of 99mTc-NC100692 in patients with HCM fibrosis detected by MRI. The secondary hypothesis is that the location and extent of increased 99mTc-NC100692 uptake will correlate with localization and extent measurements of fibrosis by Gd-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging. The tertiary hypothesis is that the extent of fibrosis assessed by the number of segments with and the magnitude of 99mTc NC100692 uptake will correlate with mean longitudinal strain as determined by speckle tracking echocardiography.~ACS Population:~The objective is to determine whether 99Technetium-NC100692 uptake in patients with ACS (MI) can serve as a marker for scar formation as detected by contrast-enhanced MRI during the process of myocardial remodelling after the ischemic insult.~The primary hypothesis is that there is an increased uptake of 99Technetium-NC100692 in patients following an ACS event (MI) and that the location and extent of increased 99Technetium-NC100692 uptake will correlate with the presence and extent of scar as detected by contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging.~Normal Control Population:~Preliminary analysis of images from HCM population showed a diffuse, low grade uptake of 99Technetium-NC100692 in non-hypertrophied myocardial segments. Although not entirely unexpected, comparison with control images will allow for quantification of low grade fibrosis and low grade uptake.

Central Blood Pressure and Variability Evaluation
|
Background: A sub-study of the AARDVARK (Aortic Aneurysmal Regression of Dilation: Value of ACE-Inhibition on RisK) trial indicated a statistically significant association between central blood pressure (BP) variability and abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) growth. The role of anti-hypertensive adherence has not been explored in the context of AAA growth.~Objective: To confirm whether higher central BP variability is associated with higher AAA growth rates and to examine the effect of medication adherence on AAA growth rates in a prospective longitudinal cohort study.~Methods: Up to 175 patients will be recruited over ten months from two sites with standardised quality control of AAA, BP and antihypertensive non-adherence measurement. Patients (>55 years), with AAAs ≥3cm in diameter (including AAA ≥5.5cm, not proceeding to surgery) will be recruited and undergo AAA ultrasound (US), BP (peripheral and central) and antihypertensive non-adherence measurements every four months (+/- one month) for 24 months. Ambulatory BP variability data will be collected. Data on medication adherence and beliefs around medications will be collected with validated questionnaires.~Analysis: Primarily, the relationship between central diastolic BP visit-to-visit variability and AAA growth (estimated by multilevel modelling) based on US measurements and secondarily the relationship between central diastolic BP variability and time taken to reach the threshold for AAA repair (5.5 cm) or rupture.

The AARDVARK (Aortic Aneurysmal Regression of Dilation: Value of ACE-Inhibition on RisK) trial was designed to investigate the hypothesis that an ACE-inhibitor (perindopril) would reduce growth rate of small AAAs in a three-arm randomised placebo-controlled trial. While this didn't show a significant effect, results from an in-trial sub-study (CAVE study) demonstrated a significant relationship between central BP variability and aneurysm growth rates. This requires confirmation, in a dedicated study.~Design:~This is a multicentre prospective longitudinal observational cohort study. Each patient will have a study visit every 4 months with a minimum of 6 clinical visits where the study team will collect demographic data; psychological data (short form questionnaires that can be independently filled in); and physical data. The study team will also access routinely collected NHS cross-sectional imaging for comparison throughout the study, as quality control. No additional procedures involving ionising radiation will take place.~Study timeline:~There will be a 10-month recruitment period; all subjects will attend visits for a period of 18-24 months. The data collection will continue for 24 months in total. There will be a 6-month period of data analysis and write up.~Recruitment:~A cohort of up to 175 patients will be recruited from two trusts in London comprising four hospitals - Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust (ICH) at St Mary's and Charing Cross hospitals, and London North West University Healthcare Trust (LNWH) at Northwick Park and Hillingdon hospitals. All visits and measurements will take place at central sites (St Mary's and Northwick Park hospitals).~Data Collection:~Demographic data - e.g. current prescribed anti-hypertensive medication and other cardiovascular medications, height and weight, medical history, smoking status~Psychological data - three short-form questionnaires that can be independently filled in by participants. Questionnaires will constitute measures of anxiety and depression (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Score [HADS]), current medication adherence (modified Voils Adherence Score), and beliefs around medication and adherence (Beliefs about Medicines Questionnaire [BMQ]).~Physical data - sitting mean peripheral and central systolic and diastolic BP, visit-to-visit central systolic and diastolic BP variability measured as standard deviation, coefficient of variation and variation independent of the mean will be measured using a validated arm cuff-based method. Ambulatory BP parameters will be measured using a validated monitor. USS AAA measurement will take place at bedside in supine position with outer-to-outer (OTO) calliper placement.~Primary Endpoint Analysis:~The association between central BP variability measured as standard deviation and AAA growth will be analysed using regression models where BP variability is the exposure and AAA growth is the outcome.~Random effects multilevel models where level-1 units are AAA repeated measurements nested within patients (level-2 units) will be used to estimate AAA growth. To explore non-linearity in AAA growth appropriate modelling will be used eg. linear splines.~Secondary Endpoints Analyses:~Survival analysis techniques such as Cox proportional hazards models will be used to assess the relationship between central BP variability and time taken for the AAA to reach the threshold for intervention (5.5 cm) or rupture.~Associations between haemodynamic parameters and aneurysm growth rate will be investigated. For each of the other measurements of systolic and diastolic central BP variability (coefficient of variation (SD ÷ mean) and variation independent of the mean calculated as SD÷(mean x) where x is determined empirically by curve fitting) and for other BP and haemodynamic parameters studied, the same multilevel model or generalised linear models will be used to estimate AAA growth. All analyses will be adjusted for an a-priori list of confounding variables.

The AARDVARK (Aortic Aneurysmal Regression of Dilation: Value of ACE-Inhibition on RisK) trial was designed to investigate the hypothesis that an ACE-inhibitor (perindopril) would reduce growth rate of small AAAs in a three-arm randomised placebo-controlled trial.

No additional procedures involving ionising radiation will take place. Study timeline: There will be a 10-month recruitment period; all subjects will attend visits for a period of 18-24 months. The data collection will continue for 24 months in total. There will be a 6-month period of data analysis and write up. Recruitment: A cohort of up to 175 patients will be recruited from two trusts in London comprising four hospitals - Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust (ICH) at St Mary's and Charing Cross hospitals, and London North West University Healthcare Trust (LNWH) at Northwick Park and Hillingdon hospitals. All visits and measurements will take place at central sites (St Mary's and Northwick Park hospitals).

Improving 24-hour Blood Pressure in Obstructive Sleep Apnea
|
This study examines the combined effects of an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB), antioxidant supplementation, and continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy on the lowering of 24-hour blood pressure in persons with moderate to severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). All participants will undergo CPAP therapy as prescribed by their doctor; however, half of the participants will receive the combined ARB and antioxidant treatment while the other half of the participants will receive a placebo.
|
OSA is a sleep disorder characterized by repetitive collapses (apneas) or partial collapses (hypopneas) of the upper airway. These airway obstructions result in intermittent reductions in arterial oxygen saturation (hypoxia), which causes a reflexive increase in sympathetic activation and systemic vasoconstriction. Resumption of breathing results in transient surges in blood pressure (BP) that can reach as high as 240/130 mm/Hg.~OSA effects up to 24% of the adult population and evidence suggests a causal relationship between OSA and cardiovascular disease (CVD) development. While the exact mechanisms are unknown, data from animal and human models suggest that exposure to chronic intermittent hypoxia (IH) plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular comorbidity. Persons with OSA exhibit increased daytime sympathetic activity, markers of oxidative stress, and vasoactive hormones, particularly angiotensin II, that contribute to systemic vasoconstriction. These factors contribute to early endothelial dysfunction and contribute to sustained elevations in BP.~While CPAP is the gold standard OSA treatment, adherence rates are low and evidence suggests that treatment does not reduce the rates of CVD in large population-based studies.~Telmisartan is a receptor blocker for angiotensin II and not only has BP lowering effects, but also has unique anti-inflammatory properties and beneficial influences on endothelial function. The addition of an antioxidant supplement may increase the reactive oxygen species scavenging capacity and, in combination with ARB treatment, may provide more robust effects on BP in persons with OSA.

Resumption of breathing results in transient surges in blood pressure (BP) that can reach as high as 240/130 mm/Hg. OSA effects up to 24% of the adult population and evidence suggests a causal relationship between OSA and cardiovascular disease (CVD) development. While the exact mechanisms are unknown, data from animal and human models suggest that exposure to chronic intermittent hypoxia (IH) plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular comorbidity. Persons with OSA exhibit increased daytime sympathetic activity, markers of oxidative stress, and vasoactive hormones, particularly angiotensin II, that contribute to systemic vasoconstriction. These factors contribute to early endothelial dysfunction and contribute to sustained elevations in BP. While CPAP is the gold standard OSA treatment, adherence rates are low and evidence suggests that treatment does not reduce the rates of CVD in large population-based studies.

Surfacer System to Facilitate Access in Venous Occlusions
|
Prospective, single-arm, multicentre, international Registry of the Surfacer System for the treatment of patients with limited or diminishing upper body venous access or pathology impeding standard access methods.The purpose of this post-market Registry is to assess the standard of care and clinical outcomes of the Surfacer System used in clinical routine according to the approved commercial indications.
|
This is a prospective, single-arm, multicenter registry of the Surfacer System for patients with limited or diminishing upper body venous access or pathology impeding standard access methods. The need for long term access and lack of availability of veins has led to the development of the Surfacer System, which facilitates reliable and repeatable placement of central venous catheters and restores central venous access. Based on European legislation, this Registry is considered to be an observational study. No additional diagnostic or monitoring procedures as a result of the inclusion are applied to the patients. Available data will be collected in a protected database. Up to 30 patients will be enrolled in 5 sites in Europe. Patients requiring central venous access will be enrolled who meet inclusion and exclusion criteria and for whom the device is indicated.

A Pharmacist Intervention for Monitoring and Treating Hypertension Using Bidirectional Texting
|
Bidirectional texting is an effective way to collect home blood pressure (BP) measurements from subjects, but collecting BP measurements and sending them to physicians does not necessarily lead to decreased BP. Pharmacist interventions have been successful in decreasing subject BP. However, pharmacists are expensive, and in successful interventions, spent a substantial amount of time collecting home BP measurements. In this study, a proven pharmacist intervention will be added to a bidirectional texting program to determine if a combined pharmacist-bidirectional texting intervention is successful at decreasing subject BP and increasing subject BP treatment intensification in a cost-effective manner. This study will be a cluster-randomized, controlled trial of a new intervention.

HTN is associated with the greatest attributable risk for mortality among all modifiable risk factors for cardiovascular disease.[1] In 2014, there were approximately 72 million adults (29%) with HTN in the US.[2] Several clinical trials have demonstrated that antihypertensive medications reduce cardiovascular events.[3] For example, even a 5 mm Hg difference in systolic BP (SBP) over 3-5 years can reduce the risk of cardiovascular complications and strokes by 25-30%.[4] Yet, approximately 20% of U.S. adults are unaware of their HTN,[5] and among patients diagnosed with HTN, 47% are uncontrolled.[2] Thus, there is a critical need to effectively treat patients with HTN.~Clinical inertia has been identified as the primary cause for delays in achieving BP control for over 20 years.[6-8] Providers often discount office BP readings that may be falsely elevated due to observer or measurement error and/or the clinical surroundings (e.g., white coat HTN).[9-11] Patients are often seen only once or twice a year which further delays BP control. Furthermore,[8, 12] BP goals are achieved in only 49% of the patients who take anti-hypertensive medications.[5] New approaches for acquiring more BP readings are also needed to better monitor and titrate treatment because a significant proportion of patients on therapy are not adequately controlled despite frequent physician visits.~Home BP measurements, (i.e., having patients take their BP at home), can facilitate the more timely diagnosis of HTN by reducing diagnostic uncertainty. In fact, home measurements are better prognostic indicators of stroke and cardiovascular mortality than clinic measurements,[13-15] are more closely correlated with end-organ damage from HTN than clinic measurements,[16, 17] are cost effective and well-tolerated by patients,[18] and generate BP readings that are at least as reproducible as clinic readings.[19] Home BP measurements, if available, may help physicians overcome barriers related to clinical inertia.[20] However, the data must be followed by action. The researchers have pioneered physician-pharmacist collaborative management (PPCM) that has been shown to decrease clinical inertia and improve BP control.[21, 22] Pharmacists have been embedded within the medical office to perform BP management. The pharmacists are able to assess patients' needs and provide recommendations to physicians regarding treatment changes, providing patients with timely therapy adjustments.[23] However, many medical office leaders are unable to hire clinical pharmacists due to limited resources. Therefore, a virtual, remote clinical pharmacy service has been developed.[24] Pharmacists were able to obtain electronic medical record (EMR) access at all intervention offices for private physician offices throughout Iowa. While the physicians accepted 95% of the pharmacists' recommendations, the effect on improving BP was modest (manuscript under review). Adding the proposed texting platform with home BP monitoring should markedly improve the potency of our remote, telepharmacy intervention.~This trial exhibits clinical equipoise because, although it is known that texting is an efficient method for obtaining home BP measurements, and that pharmacist interventions to improve BP are cost-effective, it is not known if combining these two interventions will also be cost effective. There are four reasons why this study might not be successful. First, while meta-analyses have found significantly improved BP with pharmacist interventions some studies were not successful.[25] Second, more data does not necessarily mean better data: patients could report false values, BP could be abnormally low or high during the measurement period, or the data could be ignored. Third, even better data might not lead to better outcomes: data could be ignored by pharmacists, physicians or patients; pharmacists' recommendations could be ignored by physicians or patients. Fourth, even if the study is effective at improving subject outcomes, it might not be cost effective. Texting might not save as much time as hypothesized. Thus, further research is needed to address these gaps in knowledge.~There is a critical need for an easy-to-use, cost-effective, mobile health (m-health) approach to assist patients and healthcare providers with screening, diagnosis, and monitoring of HTN. Small medical offices and those located in poor or rural areas are unable to operationalize team-based care with pharmacists. The researchers have overcome this barrier with the use of a remote clinical pharmacy services. Coronary heart disease deaths could be reduced by 15-20% and stroke deaths by 20-30% if this intervention effectively improves BP and is implemented more widely in primary care offices.~The goal of this proposal is to evaluate whether a scalable, short messaging service (SMS) approach combined with a pharmacist-based intervention improves BP management cost effectively. To achieve this objective, the following specific aims are proposed:~Determine if mean BP 12 months after the intervention decreases more for the intervention group than the control group. The working hypothesis is that those in the pharmacist-intervention group will achieve larger BP decreases than those in the control group.~Determine if the intervention leads to more intensification of therapy than in the control group. The working hypothesis is that subjects in the pharmacist-intervention group will have more treatment changes than those in the control group.~Determine the cost effectiveness of the intervention. The working hypothesis is that the intervention will be cost effective when compared to the control group.

Leucine-enriched Nutraceutical and Attenuating Muscle Loss
|
This leucine-enriched protein gummy (as a gummy bar/slab) will be studied to address age-related loss of muscle mass and strength/function in older persons. The product is small volume (approximately 35 g per serve) and low energy (approximately 100 kcal per serve). It is easy to chew and swallow with the consistency of a firm Jello. In addition, it contains an effective dose of leucine in a high-quality protein matrix consisting of milk proteins. Understanding the efficacy of this product on changes in levels of blood amino acids and the molecular signaling required to enhance muscle growth will provide helpful insight for the suggestion of supplemental use.
|
General experimental design:~Pre-testing will require participants to become familiarized with performing maximal voluntary isometric contractions, as well as touring the laboratory facilities. Participants will be asked to complete dietary records for three days to determine habitual caloric intake. The experimental trial will be conducted in three phases. A baseline run-in phase (Phase 1) during which participants will consume a diet matching their estimated energy requirement to put them in a weight-stable phase. Energy requirements will be estimated using the Harris Benedict equation using an appropriate physical activity factor based on interview responses to a standard activity questionnaire. Participants will then be assigned to either the comparator group (n=10) or leucine-enriched protein food group (n=10). For the subsequent 10d (Phase 2), participants will undergo a period of step reduction (< 1000 steps.d-1) whilst in a 500 kcal.d-1 deficit that will be adjusted for the reduced physical activity due to the step reduction. The reason for inducing an energy deficit is to mimic a situation where older individuals will be both physically inactive and 'undernourished', such as during home-bound periods of sickness or while in hospital. After completing Phase 2, participants will then return to their normal step count (from measured habitual steps pre-intervention) under energy balanced conditions for 10d that will serve as a recovery phase, Phase 3. We will complete assessments of body composition, leg lean mass, maximal voluntary isometric strength, measures of physical performance, and rate of force development will be made. Skeletal muscle biopsies will be obtained for biochemical analysis. At these time points, maximal voluntary isometric force, maximal leg press strength, a battery of physical performance measures and body composition will once again be obtained.

Cognitive Functional Therapy (CFT) Compared With Core Training Exercise and Manual Therapy (CORE-MT) in Patients With Chronic Low Back Pain
|
There is evidence, of a single randomized controlled trial, that CFT is better than combined manual therapy and motor control exercise for chronic low back pain. However, this study had significant methodological shortcomings regarding the failure to carry out the intention to treat analysis and a considerable loss of follow-up of patients. As it is, it is important to carry out more studies involving CFT compared to other interventions already used in clinical practice and to correct these methodological shortcomings. Therefore, the aim of the study is to assess the efficacy of Cognitive Functional Therapy in patients with chronic non specific low back pain.
|
Randomized controlled trial with concealed allocation, blinded assessor, blinded participants and intention to treat analysis. Patients will be evaluated at baseline, 8 weeks, 6 and 12 months after randomization, to assess the maintenance of any effect of treatment. The patients in the CFT group will be treated by a physical therapists that attended twice the CFT workshops with two of the tutors of the method. She completed 106 hours of training including workshops, patient examinations and a pilot study with the supervision of a physical therapist with more than three years of clinical experience in CFT. Patients in CORE-MT group will be treated by a physical therapist with clinical experience in manual therapy and core training exercises.

Cognitive Functional Therapy (CFT) Compared With Core Training Exercise and Manual Therapy (CORE-MT) in Patients With Chronic Low Back Pain
Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
There is evidence, of a single randomized controlled trial, that CFT is better than combined manual therapy and motor control exercise for chronic low back pain. However, this study had significant methodological shortcomings regarding the failure to carry out the intention to treat analysis and a considerable loss of follow-up of patients. As it is, it is important to carry out more studies involving CFT compared to other interventions already used in clinical practice and to correct these methodological shortcomings. Therefore, the aim of the study is to assess the efficacy of Cognitive Functional Therapy in patients with chronic non specific low back pain.
Detailed Description
-----------------
Randomized controlled trial with concealed allocation, blinded assessor, blinded participants and intention to treat analysis. Patients will be evaluated at baseline, 8 weeks, 6 and 12 months after randomization, to assess the maintenance of any effect of treatment. The patients in the CFT group will be treated by a physical therapists that attended twice the CFT workshops with two of the tutors of the method. She completed 106 hours of training including workshops, patient examinations and a pilot study with the supervision of a physical therapist with more than three years of clinical experience in CFT. Patients in CORE-MT group will be treated by a physical therapist with clinical experience in manual therapy and core training exercises.

Modafinil's Effects on Cognition in Remitted MDD
|
Cognitive difficulties such as indecisiveness or inability to concentrate are core symptoms of depression with up to 90% of untreated depressed individuals experiencing these symptoms. As many as half of those who remit from a major depressive episode continue to experience residual cognitive deficits, but these symptoms are frequently overlooked in clinical practice. This leads to persistent cognitive deficits which can cause reduced level of functioning and loss of productivity. As standard antidepressants have an inadequate impact on these residual cognitive symptoms, further treatment options are required. Modafinil is a wakefulness agent with evidence that it improves some domains in cognition such as memory in those whose non-cognitive depressive symptoms have been treated over a short term period. This medication may have favourable lasting effects on cognition, such as the ability to plan and execute tasks in those who receive modafinil for a longer time period. The aim of this study is to investigate whether modafinil can enhance cognition and have additional effects on functioning and work productivity in a sample of participants who were treated for depression but who continue to experience cognitive deficits.
|
Background:~Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) is a chronic mental disorder with a lifetime prevalence of 5-20% (Kessler et al., 2003; Woo et al., 2016). While depressed mood and loss of interest in activities are core features of MDD, cognitive deficits such as indecisiveness and inattention are present and interfere with work and social functioning (McIntyre et al., 2013). These cognitive deficits frequently persist beyond remission from a Major Depressive Episode (MDE), with up to 94% of those impaired during an episode continuing to experience deficits after the episode (Bhalla et al., 2006), including deficits in attention, executive functioning, and psychomotor speed (Salagre et al., 2017). These residual cognitive symptoms often persist and are associated with poor functioning and loss of productivity (Lam et al., 2014).~In a systematic review examining MDD patients in remission, multiple regression analyses found that MDD predicted lower performance on measures of attention, processing speed, and cognitive flexibility relative to healthy controls (HCs; Hasselbalch et al., 2011). Further evidence for the presence of neuropsychological deficits in remitted MDD patients comes from a systematic review and meta-analysis that found the remitted MDD patient group had executive function and attentional deficits, while symptomatic patients exhibited executive function, attentional, and memory deficits (Roc et al., 2013).~Importantly, there are no medications with evidence to modify cognition in remitted depression. This suggests that in order to assist in the recovery of cognitive and functional abilities, additional novel treatment options are required.~There is considerable evidence that subjective and objective measures of cognition are not well correlated in MDD. This has informed the investigators' choice of separate subjective and objective measures for this study. In addition, cognitive disturbances affect psychosocial function and quality of life across several areas, and this necessitated measurement of quality of life. In this study, the investigators will use a computerized version of the Central Nervous System (CNS) Vital Signs Cognitive Battery, which will provide a Neurocognitive Index score (NCI). The NCI is a global measure of cognitive functioning, averaging the scores from 7 tests over 5 domains: composite memory, psychomotor speed, reaction time, complex attention, and cognitive flexibility.~Pilot results from the The Canadian Biomarker Integration Network in Depression (CAN-BIND)-1 study, involving treatment with escitalopram, have clearly documented the nature of deficits, and are in line with expectations in remitted depression. In this pilot sample of 208 participants, 15% of participants had global cognitive impairment despite 8 weeks of antidepressant treatment and achievement of clinical remission (McInerney, personal communication).~In an 8-week antidepressant study, those who significantly improved in global cognitive functioning (assessed using NCI) had superior functioning and work productivity relative to those who did not significantly improve (Hasselbalch et al., 2011). Vortioxetine is the only antidepressant with modest evidence for improving cognitive parameters during a depressive episode (Rock et al., 2013). Research into the use of psychostimulants as a treatment for cognitive deficits in depressed patients has led to the consideration of modafinil and methylphenidate as potential novel pharmacological treatments (Minzenberg et al., 2008). Modafinil is a well-tolerated wakefulness agent where only two clinical studies have previously examined its role on cognition in depression; one where currently depressed patients had improvements in one measure of executive function after 4 weeks of treatment as an adjuvant (DeBattista et al., 2004), and the other where there were improvements in memory after a single dose in depressed participants who achieved remission (Kaser et al., 2016). Unlike methylphenidate, modafinil appears to impact both hot (emotion-laden) and cold (independent of emotion) cognitive deficits, which are commonly seen in remitted depression.~Immediate effects of modafinil on cognition have been shown (Kaser et al., 2016) and the investigators will be the first to examine the pro-cognitive effects in a remitted depressed sample over 8 weeks. The dose of modafinil (200mg) used in the study, sample size, and randomized control trial (RCT) study design parallels those described in the immediate effect study, and this maintains continuity. However, the study does not examine whether the immediate effects are maintained. More importantly, it is unclear whether the cognitive improvements translate into improvement in functioning.~The added focus on functional outcomes fits with patient-centered models of healthcare, as functional outcomes are of greatest importance to most patients. Thus, the RCT study and choice of outcome variables have been carefully designed with specific endpoints to delineate these aspects. Cognitive flexibility, memory, and attention will be domains of importance in this study, since these domains have been shown in previous literature to be improved by modafinil (Minzenberg et al., 2008; DeBattista et al., 2004; Kaser et al., 2016).~Objectives, Hypotheses, and Impact:~The primary objective of this study is to delineate the cognitive effects of modafinil in patients with remitted depression at baseline and 4 weeks, and monitor whether these effects are maintained with continual dosage over an 8-week period. The secondary objective of this study is to understand the effect of modafinil in patients with remitted depression on measures of functioning at baseline, 4 weeks, and 8 weeks, and whether these effects parallel the cognitive changes.~The investigators' overarching hypothesis is that specific aspects of cognitive functioning, including the domains of memory, attention, and cognitive flexibility, will improve through treatment with modafinil. The investigators hypothesize that participants with remitted depression who continue to experience cognitive deficits and are taking modafinil will have improvements in aspects of cognitive domains at 4 weeks, and these improvements will be sustained at 8 weeks. It is also hypothesized that functional improvements will parallel the improvements in cognitive domains.~The study ensures a closer examination of modafinil's effect on individual facets of cognition in patients with remitted MDD. This enhanced understanding will enable the development of new treatment plans for residual cognitive symptoms, where none currently exist. Moreover, it could spur interest in new drug development programs to address an unmet need of targeting cognition across disorders where depression is a central feature (e.g. Bipolar Disorder, Generalized Anxiety Disorder). Finally, the study would delineate the specific endophenotypes within cognition (e.g. working memory) and functional improvement (e.g. social functioning), which would lead to personalized treatment options based on the endophenotype profile.~Methods In this randomized control trial, remitted MDD patients with residual cognitive deficits (n=50) will have cognitive symptoms and functioning evaluated before and after an 8-week trial of modafinil 200mg or placebo. Participants will be recruited through the ongoing CAN-BIND 1 Wellness Study; the Depression Program at St. Michael's Hospital; the shared care network at St. Michael's Hospital; and referrals from residents, family doctors, and other St. Michael's psychiatrists. All participants who meet inclusion criteria will be asked to enrol in this study and provide written informed consent.~Participants will be on a stable dose of an antidepressant for at least 6 months prior to enrolment. They will be required to remain on this stable dose for the duration (8 weeks) of the trial. They will be prescribed modafinil or placebo at a dose of 100 mg for the first week then 200mg for 7 weeks. After week 8, participants will be informed of which group they were in and if they were taking modafinil, they can choose to continue on modafinil or to discontinue.~Participants will undergo an 8-week randomized, placebo controlled treatment trial of modafinil 200mg with a total of 3 study visits. Participants may require more clinical visits as needed. Screening will be done to confirm study eligibility. At the screening visit all participants will provide demographic data (age, gender, education, ethnicity, occupation, family history of mental illness), undergo a structured diagnostic assessment (Mini-International Neuropsychiatric Interview), complete the CNS Vital Signs cognitive battery, and have the Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale administered. At the baseline visit, participants will initiate the study drug trial, complete clinician rated and self-report scales, and complete the cognitive battery in CNS Vital Signs. Participants will start with a 100 mg dose at baseline, and increase to the 200 mg dose at week 1 if the drug is well tolerated. Participants will repeat all measures at week 4 and 8. Adverse events will be recorded at each study visit. For participants who wish to discontinue the study drug at week 8, they will first have their dose decreased to 100 mg for one week and attend an additional week 9 safety visit to evaluate adverse events before full discontinuation of the study drug.

Modafinil's Effects on Cognition in Remitted MDD
Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
Cognitive difficulties such as indecisiveness or inability to concentrate are core symptoms of depression with up to 90% of untreated depressed individuals experiencing these symptoms. As many as half of those who remit from a major depressive episode continue to experience residual cognitive deficits, but these symptoms are frequently overlooked in clinical practice. This leads to persistent cognitive deficits which can cause reduced level of functioning and loss of productivity. As standard antidepressants have an inadequate impact on these residual cognitive symptoms, further treatment options are required. Modafinil is a wakefulness agent with evidence that it improves some domains in cognition such as memory in those whose non-cognitive depressive symptoms have been treated over a short term period. This medication may have favourable lasting effects on cognition, such as the ability to plan and execute tasks in those who receive modafinil for a longer time period. The aim of this study is to investigate whether modafinil can enhance cognition and have additional effects on functioning and work productivity in a sample of participants who were treated for depression but who continue to experience cognitive deficits.
Detailed Description
-----------------
Background: Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) is a chronic mental disorder with a lifetime prevalence of 5-20% (Kessler et al., 2003; Woo et al., 2016). While depressed mood and loss of interest in activities are core features of MDD, cognitive deficits such as indecisiveness and inattention are present and interfere with work and social functioning (McIntyre et al., 2013). These cognitive deficits frequently persist beyond remission from a Major Depressive Episode (MDE), with up to 94% of those impaired during an episode continuing to experience deficits after the episode (Bhalla et al., 2006), including deficits in attention, executive functioning, and psychomotor speed (Salagre et al., 2017). These residual cognitive symptoms often persist and are associated with poor functioning and loss of productivity (Lam et al., 2014). In a systematic review examining MDD patients in remission, multiple regression analyses found that MDD predicted lower performance on measures of attention, processing speed, and cognitive flexibility relative to healthy controls (HCs; Hasselbalch et al., 2011). Further evidence for the presence of neuropsychological deficits in remitted MDD patients comes from a systematic review and meta-analysis that found the remitted MDD patient group had executive function and attentional deficits, while symptomatic patients exhibited executive function, attentional, and memory deficits (Roc et al., 2013). Importantly, there are no medications with evidence to modify cognition in remitted depression. This suggests that in order to assist in the recovery of cognitive and functional abilities, additional novel treatment options are required. There is considerable evidence that subjective and objective measures of cognition are not well correlated in MDD. This has informed the investigators' choice of separate subjective and objective measures for this study. In addition, cognitive disturbances affect psychosocial function and quality of life across several areas, and this necessitated measurement of quality of life. In this study, the investigators will use a computerized version of the Central Nervous System (CNS) Vital Signs Cognitive Battery, which will provide a Neurocognitive Index score (NCI). The NCI is a global measure of cognitive functioning, averaging the scores from 7 tests over 5 domains: composite memory, psychomotor speed, reaction time, complex attention, and cognitive flexibility. Pilot results from the The Canadian Biomarker Integration Network in Depression (CAN-BIND)-1 study, involving treatment with escitalopram, have clearly documented the nature of deficits, and are in line with expectations in remitted depression. In this pilot sample of 208 participants, 15% of participants had global cognitive impairment despite 8 weeks of antidepressant treatment and achievement of clinical remission (McInerney, personal communication). In an 8-week antidepressant study, those who significantly improved in global cognitive functioning (assessed using NCI) had superior functioning and work productivity relative to those who did not significantly improve (Hasselbalch et al., 2011). Vortioxetine is the only antidepressant with modest evidence for improving cognitive parameters during a depressive episode (Rock et al., 2013). Research into the use of psychostimulants as a treatment for cognitive deficits in depressed patients has led to the consideration of modafinil and methylphenidate as potential novel pharmacological treatments (Minzenberg et al., 2008). Modafinil is a well-tolerated wakefulness agent where only two clinical studies have previously examined its role on cognition in depression; one where currently depressed patients had improvements in one measure of executive function after 4 weeks of treatment as an adjuvant (DeBattista et al., 2004), and the other where there were improvements in memory after a single dose in depressed participants who achieved remission (Kaser et al., 2016). Unlike methylphenidate, modafinil appears to impact both hot (emotion-laden) and cold (independent of emotion) cognitive deficits, which are commonly seen in remitted depression. Immediate effects of modafinil on cognition have been shown (Kaser et al., 2016) and the investigators will be the first to examine the pro-cognitive effects in a remitted depressed sample over 8 weeks. The dose of modafinil (200mg) used in the study, sample size, and randomized control trial (RCT) study design parallels those described in the immediate effect study, and this maintains continuity. However, the study does not examine whether the immediate effects are maintained. More importantly, it is unclear whether the cognitive improvements translate into improvement in functioning. The added focus on functional outcomes fits with patient-centered models of healthcare, as functional outcomes are of greatest importance to most patients. Thus, the RCT study and choice of outcome variables have been carefully designed with specific endpoints to delineate these aspects. Cognitive flexibility, memory, and attention will be domains of importance in this study, since these domains have been shown in previous literature to be improved by modafinil (Minzenberg et al., 2008; DeBattista et al., 2004; Kaser et al., 2016). Objectives, Hypotheses, and Impact: The primary objective of this study is to delineate the cognitive effects of modafinil in patients with remitted depression at baseline and 4 weeks, and monitor whether these effects are maintained with continual dosage over an 8-week period. The secondary objective of this study is to understand the effect of modafinil in patients with remitted depression on measures of functioning at baseline, 4 weeks, and 8 weeks, and whether these effects parallel the cognitive changes. The investigators' overarching hypothesis is that specific aspects of cognitive functioning, including the domains of memory, attention, and cognitive flexibility, will improve through treatment with modafinil. The investigators hypothesize that participants with remitted depression who continue to experience cognitive deficits and are taking modafinil will have improvements in aspects of cognitive domains at 4 weeks, and these improvements will be sustained at 8 weeks. It is also hypothesized that functional improvements will parallel the improvements in cognitive domains. The study ensures a closer examination of modafinil's effect on individual facets of cognition in patients with remitted MDD. This enhanced understanding will enable the development of new treatment plans for residual cognitive symptoms, where none currently exist. Moreover, it could spur interest in new drug development programs to address an unmet need of targeting cognition across disorders where depression is a central feature (e.g. Bipolar Disorder, Generalized Anxiety Disorder). Finally, the study would delineate the specific endophenotypes within cognition (e.g. working memory) and functional improvement (e.g. social functioning), which would lead to personalized treatment options based on the endophenotype profile. Methods In this randomized control trial, remitted MDD patients with residual cognitive deficits (n=50) will have cognitive symptoms and functioning evaluated before and after an 8-week trial of modafinil 200mg or placebo. Participants will be recruited through the ongoing CAN-BIND 1 Wellness Study; the Depression Program at St. Michael's Hospital; the shared care network at St. Michael's Hospital; and referrals from residents, family doctors, and other St. Michael's psychiatrists. All participants who meet inclusion criteria will be asked to enrol in this study and provide written informed consent. Participants will be on a stable dose of an antidepressant for at least 6 months prior to enrolment. They will be required to remain on this stable dose for the duration (8 weeks) of the trial. They will be prescribed modafinil or placebo at a dose of 100 mg for the first week then 200mg for 7 weeks. After week 8, participants will be informed of which group they were in and if they were taking modafinil, they can choose to continue on modafinil or to discontinue. Participants will undergo an 8-week randomized, placebo controlled treatment trial of modafinil 200mg with a total of 3 study visits. Participants may require more clinical visits as needed. Screening will be done to confirm study eligibility. At the screening visit all participants will provide demographic data (age, gender, education, ethnicity, occupation, family history of mental illness), undergo a structured diagnostic assessment (Mini-International Neuropsychiatric Interview), complete the CNS Vital Signs cognitive battery, and have the Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale administered. At the baseline visit, participants will initiate the study drug trial, complete clinician rated and self-report scales, and complete the cognitive battery in CNS Vital Signs. Participants will start with a 100 mg dose at baseline, and increase to the 200 mg dose at week 1 if the drug is well tolerated. Participants will repeat all measures at week 4 and 8. Adverse events will be recorded at each study visit. For participants who wish to discontinue the study drug at week 8, they will first have their dose decreased to 100 mg for one week and attend an additional week 9 safety visit to evaluate adverse events before full discontinuation of the study drug.

What is the study measuring?
-----------------
Primary Outcome Measures
| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Cognition | Cognition will be measured using a Neurocognitive Index, which will be calculated using the CNS Vital Signs Neurocognitive Battery (a computer program). The domains tested within the cognitive battery include composite memory, psychomotor speed, reaction time, complex attention, cognitive flexibility, and processing speed. The Neurocognitive Index is based on a composite, average score of the scores on these 6 domains. From the Neurocognitive Index score, the CNS Vital Signs program classifies the participant as above, average, low average, low, or very low based on their deviation from a standard score of 85. | 8 weeks |
Secondary Outcome Measures
| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Composite Memory | This is a measure of how well participants can recognize, remember, and retrieve words and images. Composite memory will be measured based on performance on a series of tests in the CNS Vital Signs Neurocognitive Battery (a computer program). Based on performance, the CNS Vital Signs program classifies the participant as above, average, low average, low, or very low based on their deviation from a standard score of 103. | 8 weeks |
| Psychomotor Speed | This is a measure of how well a participant is able to perceive, attend, and respond to complex visual-perceptual information and perform simple, fine motor coordination. Psychomotor speed will be measured based on performance on a series of tests in the CNS Vital Signs Neurocognitive Battery (a computer program). Based on performance, the CNS Vital Signs program classifies the participant as above, average, low average, low, or very low based on their deviation from a standard score of 93. | 8 weeks |
| Reaction Time | This is a measure of how quickly a participant can react to simple and complex direction sets. Reaction time will be measured based on performance on a series of tests in the CNS Vital Signs Neurocognitive Battery (a computer program). Based on performance, the CNS Vital Signs program classifies the participant as above, average, low average, low, or very low based on their deviation from a standard score of 107. | 8 weeks |
| Complex Attention | This is a measure of a participant's ability to track and respond to multiple stimuli over long periods of time, and perform complex mental tasks quickly and accurately. Complex attention will be measured based on performance on a series of tests in the CNS Vital Signs Neurocognitive Battery (a computer program). Based on performance, the CNS Vital Signs program classifies the participant as above, average, low average, low, or very low based on their deviation from a standard score of 56. | 8 weeks |
| Cognitive Flexibility | This is a measure of how well a participant can adapt to rapidly changing and complex directions, and manipulate information. Cognitive flexibility will be measured based on performance on a series of tests in the CNS Vital Signs Neurocognitive Battery (a computer program). Based on performance, the CNS Vital Signs program classifies the participant as above, average, low average, low, or very low based on their deviation from a standard score of 63. | 8 weeks |
| Processing Speed | This is a measure of a participant's ability to recognize and process information. Processing speed will be measured based on performance on a series of tests in the CNS Vital Signs Neurocognitive Battery (a computer program). Based on performance, the CNS Vital Signs program classifies the participant as above, average, low average, low, or very low based on their deviation from a standard score of 79. | 8 weeks |
| Subjective Cognitive Improvement | This is a measure of how well the participant feels their cognition has improved after using the study drug. This will be measured using the British Columbia Cognitive Complaints Inventory, a 6-item screening tool that assesses perceived cognitive difficulties in patients with MDD over the past 7 days. A total score between 0 and 18 is calculated based on participant self-report, where a higher score represents greater cognitive impairment. | 8 weeks |
| Functional Disability | This will be assessed using the Sheehan Disability Scale, which assesses functional impairment in work/school, social life, and family life. This is scored based on a self-report scale of 0-10 in 3 domains: work/school, social life, and family life/home responsibilities. A total score between 0 and 30 is calculated based on the sum of these 3 domains. Higher values represent greater disability. | 8 weeks |
| Work Productivity | This will be assessed using the Lam Employment and Productivity Scale, a brief questionnaire designed to assess occupational productivity.This is scored based on a self-report scale from 0-4 in 7 domains: low energy or motivation, poor concentration or memory, anxiety or irritability, getting less work done, doing poor quality work, making more mistakes, and having trouble getting along with people or avoiding them. A total score between 0 and 28 is calculated as a sum of all sub scores. Higher values represent greater impairment. | 8 weeks |
| Motivation and Energy | This is be assessed using the Motivation and Energy Inventory, an 18-item inventory to measure changes in lassitude and energy with antidepressant treatment. Based on self-report measurements, a total score between 0-108 is determined, where a lower score corresponds to lower levels of motivation and energy. | 8 weeks |

Pre-operative Nivolumab and Ipilimumab, Followed by Post-operative Nivolumab, for MSI/dMMR Oeso-gastric Adenocarcinoma.
|
This is a non-randomized study, open label phase II study. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the complete pathologic response rate (cPRR) with neoadjuvant nivolumab and ipilimumab combination in patients with MSI and/or dMMR localized oeso-gastric cancer.
|
In patients with resectable oeso-gastric adenocarcinoma, radical surgery is the only curative option. Despite the evolution in treatment with multimodality treatment strategies, oeso-gastric cancer remains one of the most lethal malignancies with 5-year survival rates reaching only 22%. When the disease is localized, perioperative chemotherapy with cytotoxic agents is the preferred strategy since it increases the overall survival (OS) rate. However, in oeso-gastric cancers with microsatellite instability (MSI), is a favorable prognostic factor, the recommended cytotoxic chemotherapy combination seems inefficient and even deleterious.~It is now well established that dMMR and or the MSI phenotype are the surrogate markers of response to immunotherapy.~The combination of nivolumab and ipilimumab had shown promising efficacy in multiple tumor types (dMMR/MSI).~Based on the data above, we have designed this phase II study to evaluate the complete pathological response rate (cPRR) in patients with non-metastatic MSI/dMMR oeso-gastric adenocarcinoma treated with neoadjuvant nivolumab and ipilimumab treatment.

Study to Assess Efficacy, Safety and Mechanism of Rupatadine in Cold Urticaria
|
Main objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of rupatadine in 20 mg and 40 mg doses in the development of symptoms of cold contact urticaria. For this purpose, a Peltier element-based electronic provocation device (TempTest®, emo systems GmbH, Berlin, Germany) will be used. This allows skin exposure to 12 different temperatures from 4 to 42 °C simultaneously in a standardized and reproducible way and thus the determination of individual temperature and/or stimulation time thresholds.~In addition mediators related from activated must cells such as histamine, PAF, PGD2 should be identified in the period between the application of stimulus and the appearance of symptoms of cold urticaria and should be characterized qualitatively and quantitatively.

Prior to trabeculectomy corneal biomechanics are measured with the Ocular Response Analyzer (ORA, Reichert) and the Corvis st (Oculus). Both instruments work with an air-puff which deforms the cornea. Intraocular pressure is measured like in non-contact air-puff tonometry. The ORA also measures corneal hysteresis (CH) and the corneal resistance factor (CRF) which are qualitative measures of corneal biomechanics. The Corvis is a high-speed Scheimpflug-camera (4330 frames/sec) that records the quantitative movements of the cornea. At least 6 month after uncomplicated trabeculectomy the measurements are repeated.

Comparison of Carto Versus Ensite 3D Electroanatomical Mapping Systems for Arrhythmias Ablations
|
Three dimensional anatomical mapping is an established method facilitating ablation of cardiac arrhythmias. The most commonly used systems are CARTO® System (Biosense Webster, Inc., Diamond Bar, CA, USA) and EnSite NavX™ (St. Jude Medical, Inc., St. Paul, MN, USA). These two systems has been compared in only a few studies. Recent technical advances resulted in the development of new versions of both systems. To the best of the investigators knowledge no studies have been performed for direct comparison of the newer versions of these two systems. The aim of the study to compare two systems for the use in the ablation of complex arrhythmias.
|
Background:~Three dimensional anatomical mapping is an established method facilitating ablation of cardiac arrhythmias. It is nowadays an excepted method especially for complex arrhythmias such as atrial fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia.~The most commonly used systems are CARTO® System (Biosense Webster, Inc., Diamond Bar, CA, USA) and EnSite NavX™ (St. Jude Medical, Inc., St. Paul, MN, USA). These mapping systems have helped to decrease procedural complexity, procedure time, and improve safety. The EnSite NavX system uses impedance measurements between the individual catheter electrodes and the patches placed on the patient's chest and abdomen. The CARTO system utilizes magnetic location technology to provide accurate visualization of the magnet sensor-equipped catheter tip.~These two systems has been compared in only a few studies. Different results have been found in simple ablations versus more complex ablation of atrial fibrillation. Recent technical advances resulted in the development of new versions of both systems. Carto Express version allows quicker mapping and reconstruction of heart cavities and great vessels geometry as compared to previous versions of Carto XP. EnSite Velocity system incorporates more precise catheter visualization, and allows quicker mapping as compared to previous version of EnSite.~To the best of the investigators knowledge no studies have been performed for direct comparison of the newer versions of these two systems.~Study design Prospective single-center non-randomized open label comparison study. Primary objective Comparison of Carto Express system vs. EnSite Velocity system for ablation of complex arrhythmias.~End points:~Procedure duration.~Fluoroscopy time~Procedure success -will be measured in terms of the 1-year recurrent arrhythmia rate Study population Patients planned for ablation of complex arrhythmia.

These markers may replace or add to the effectiveness of markers used in the current statistical model.~Recruitment-200 patients. Inclusion: Patients attending the Early Pregnancy Unit (EPU) in the first trimester with a PUL or ectopic pregnancy on trans-vaginal ultrasound scan between the ages of 18-50 years. Exclusion: Patients diagnosed with cancer, presence of acute medical condition, patients aged less than 18 years, patients who cannot give fully informed study consent.~Consent - Posters will advertise the study. Patients in EPU will be invited to the study by a member of the clinical care team. Written consent will be required for all aspects of the study other than for 3-dimensional scanning of PUL and EP patients, where verbal consent will be obtained. Patients will be given at least 24 hours to consider whether they wish to participate.~Confidentiality - The Chief Investigator will preserve the confidentiality of participants taking part in the study and is registered under the Data Protection Act. Patient consent forms will be stored securely within the study file. All patient identifiable information, where required, will be stored electronically on National Health Service (NHS) approved computers, accessible only by personnel involved in the study via password.~Conflict of interest - None involved in the study have a conflict of interest.~Dissemination of results - No patient identifiable information will be included in the research report or publication. Anonymised results will be disseminated to scientific community by means of publication in peer-reviewed literature and presented at national and international meetings.

Abnormalities of the Eye's Anterior Chamber, Iris, Cornea and Lens
|
This study will investigate congenital or developmental eye abnormalities that affect the iris, cornea and lens, and are usually accompanied by elevated pressure within the eye. These disorders can cause vision loss, and the increased eye pressure can lead to glaucoma, a condition that may also cause loss of eyesight.~Patients with eye anterior chamber eye disease, such as Axenfeld's syndrome, Rieger's anomaly, Peter's anomaly, iridocorneal endothelial syndrome, megalocornea, ocular hypertension, and others, are eligible for this study. Participants will have a medical examination, family history, and comprehensive eye examination. Tests and procedures may include photographs of the cornea, iris, and the structure through which fluid that normally circulates behind the cornea drains out of the eye. Some patients may undergo indentation tonography to measure how easily this fluid drains. In this procedure, the patient lies on an examination table and both eyes are numbed with eye drops. A small instrument (tonometer) is placed on the surface of one eye, and with the other eye, the patient looks at an overhead light. Other tests may include photographs of the back of the eye and ultrasound imaging of the structures of the eye. A blood sample may be drawn to study the genetic disorder responsible for the disease. Patients will have follow-up examinations every 6 months for the duration of the study.~Medical or surgical therapy will be recommended, as appropriate, for patients who develop elevated eye pressure or vision loss.
|
This study will concentrate on abnormalities of the anterior chamber with or without elevated intraocular pressure. The purpose of the study will be to determine if there is a common pathogenesis shared by these conditions. A natural history study of 40 individuals with these diseases will utilize clinical measurements and photographs for documentation of this hypothesis. In addition, surgical specimens, when available, will be studied.

Anterior and Posterior Approaches of Suprascapular Nerve Block
|
Suprascapular nerve is a mixed motor and sensory peripheral nerve arising from the superior trunk of brachial plexus.The suprascapular nerve runs through the posterior triangle of the neck, anterior of the trapezius muscle and dorsal of the omohyoid muscle, in direction of the scapula. Suprascapular nerve block is performed by anterior and posterior approach. Posterior approach of the suprascapular nerve block has been shown for many years to provide effective analgesia in the shoulder region for the chronic and acute pain. There are studies showing that suprascapular block with anterior approach provides effective analgesia in shoulder arthroscopy.~The aim of our study was to compare anterior and posterior approaches of suprascapular nerve block in terms of analgesic efficacy and patient safety.

Anterior and Posterior Approaches of Suprascapular Nerve Block
Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
Suprascapular nerve is a mixed motor and sensory peripheral nerve arising from the superior trunk of brachial plexus.The suprascapular nerve runs through the posterior triangle of the neck, anterior of the trapezius muscle and dorsal of the omohyoid muscle, in direction of the scapula. Suprascapular nerve block is performed by anterior and posterior approach. Posterior approach of the suprascapular nerve block has been shown for many years to provide effective analgesia in the shoulder region for the chronic and acute pain. There are studies showing that suprascapular block with anterior approach provides effective analgesia in shoulder arthroscopy. The aim of our study was to compare anterior and posterior approaches of suprascapular nerve block in terms of analgesic efficacy and patient safety.

Aqueous Dynamics and Glaucoma Surgeries
|
There are currently many surgical options for patients with glaucoma and ocular hypertension (OHT), including the Hydrus Microstent implant, HiFU (High intensity Focused ultrasound), STAR flo, Kahook Dual Blade, Diode laser, trabeculectomy and the Baerveldt implant, but little is known about how these different surgical techniques used to treat glaucoma affect the flow of fluid through and out of the eye (aqueous dynamics).
|
Trial objectives~Main outcome measures: The following aqueous dynamics parameters will be measured: IOP, aqueous flow rate, trabecular outflow facility and uveoscleral outflow. These parameters will be measured pre-treatment (up to 2 months before glaucoma surgery) and repeated 3 months and 12 months post-surgery. Measures will be taken from the operated eye and the contra lateral non-operated eye which will be used as the control.~Trial design~This is a prospective observational study with the contra lateral untreated eye being used as control. Baseline measures will be conducted at a routine clinic visit up to 2 months before glaucoma surgery after 4 weeks of treatment washout.~Post-treatment follow-up measurements of the main outcomes will be conducted 3 months and 12 months after surgery, again, after 4 weeks wash out. A number of additional eye tests will also be performed to collect data for the study at the pre-operative appointment when the baseline measurements are taken and at the post-operative follow-up appointments 3 months and 12 months after the surgery. Other data will be collected from eye tests that are routinely performed pre-operatively and at the post-operative follow-up appointments 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months after their surgery.~Study participants will be recruited from patients attending the Ophthalmology Department Outpatients Clinic at St Thomas' Hospital, London, United Kingdom who have a diagnosis of glaucoma or OHT (ocular hypertension) requiring glaucoma drainage surgery. One hundred patients with glaucoma or OHT and where a clinical decision has been made that they need glaucoma surgery will be included in the study such that 100 eyes undergoing surgery will be included together with the contra-lateral untreated eyes that will be used as controls for comparison with the treated eyes.~Data will be collected for the study at the following routine appointments that patients undergoing glaucoma surgery are asked to attend: a pre-operative appointment, surgery, and follow-up assessments 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months after surgery. Baseline measurements will be taken up to 2 months before glaucoma surgery.~At the baseline assessment demographic information will be collected~Details of participants' relevant past medical history will be collected at the baseline pre-operative assessment and at 12 months post-surgery.~All tests will be performed on both eyes as the contra-lateral non-operated eye will be used as control.~Aqueous parameters~• Aqueous flow rate: Participants will be asked to self-administer 3 to 6 drops (depending on their age) of fluorescein sodium 2% topically into both eyes at 5 minute intervals on the night before the fluorophotometric scans. Fluorophotometry will be performed using a scanning ocular fluorophotometer from 9:00 am -12:00 midday. Four sets of triplicate scans will be collected at 1 hour intervals to determine the aqueous flow rate (Ft). The 3 scans are done in quick succession, taking approximately 2 seconds in total to complete the set. Following each set of scans, IOP will be measured using pneumatonometry. and rebound tonometry. IOP will be recorded as the mean of a total of 12 measurements per eye: 3 measurements every hour alternating between eyes.~Patients who have had previous cataract surgeries or iridotomy/iridectomy will be excluded from this aspect of the measurements as fluorophotometry is inaccurate in these eyes.~Outflow facility: Tonographic outflow facility (C) measurement will be performed using an electronic Schiøtz tonographer (Model 720, Berkeley Bioengineering Inc, USA) between 9:00 am -12:00 midday. The facility of outflow will be measured from the rate of decay of IOP in the supine position during application of a recording Schiøtz tonometer over a period of 4 minutes with a standard 5.5 gram weight. The R values of the curve at every 30-second time point will be manually entered into the McLaren tonography computer program. The program fits a second-degree polynomial by least squares to the nine data points and determines the best-fit values for time 0 and time 4 minutes by extrapolation.~Intraocular pressure (IOP): Pneumatonometry and rebound tonometry will be used to measure IOP for patients undergoing fluorophotometry. The IOP measurements will be recorded at 1 hour intervals between the hours of 9:00 am -12:00 midday following each set of fluorophotometric scans.~Uveoscleral outflow: There are currently no reliable clinical methods of measuring uveoscleral outflow (Fu) and episcleral venous pressure (Pv). Fu will be therefore calculated using the Goldmann equation (see below) with an assumed episcleral venous pressure of 8-11 mmHg:~Ft = C(IOP - Pv) +Fu Where:~Ft = Measured aqueous flow rate Fu = Ft - C(IOP - Pv) Fu = Calculated uveoscleral outflow C = Tonographic outflow facility (value computed by the measurement device) IOP = Mean morning intraocular pressure as measured by pneumatonometry Pv = Episcleral venous pressure (8-11 mmHg, exact value calculated based on patient parameters)~Routine tests~At the pre-operative visit when baseline measurements are taken and at each routine post-operative follow-up visit (1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months after surgery) patients will undergo a clinical ophthalmological examination including the following tests and examinations:~Visual acuity measurement (Snellen and ETDRS charts will be used. Best Corrected Distance Visual Acuity (BCVA) and Non Corrected Distance Visual Acuity (NCVA) will be measured using ETDRS (early treatment diabetic retinopathy study) charts. Best Corrected Near Visual Acuity (BCVA) will be measured using a standard near vision chart).~Slit lamp examination~Visual fields~IOP (intraocular pressure) measurement (Goldmann applanation tonometry will be used to measure IOP, except when there is irregular corneal astigmatism or other corneal problems which may preclude accurate reading. The IOP measurement will be done after application of topical anesthetic (eye drop) with fluorescein)~Gonioscopy~Dilated fundoscopy~Anterior chamber depth and axial length~Central corneal thickness~Refraction (routine at baseline only)~Description of the surgical interventions~There are potentially four types of operation that patients may have as part of their glaucoma care in the department:~Trans-trabecular meshwork implants (Hydrus implant or iStent implant)~Ciliary Ablation Treatment (Diode laser or HiFu ultrasound treatment)~External (sub-conjunctival) Drainage Surgery (Trabeculectomy, Baerveldt implant or Ahmed Implant)~Suprachoroidal Shunt Surgery (STARflo)

Sirolimus for Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis
|
This study will determine the safety and effectiveness of sirolimus (Rapamune® (Registered Trademark)) in treating focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), a disease involving kidney scarring and increased protein in the urine. About one-half of patients with FSGS go on to develop end-stage kidney disease within 6 years, requiring dialysis or kidney transplant. Therapies to reduce urine protein are likely to stop the progression of renal scarring and reduce the chance of developing kidney failure. However, current treatments for FSGS, such as prednisone, cyclophosphamide, and cyclosporine, are not effective in many patients and can cause serious side effects. This study will see if sirolimus, a drug with both anti-scarring and immune suppressing properties, can lower the amount of protein in the urine and slow or stop the kidney disease.~Patients 13 years of age and older with FSGS who have had at least one standard treatment for FSGS may be eligible for this 24-month study. Pregnant and nursing women may not participate. Candidates will be screened with a medical history and physical examination, review of medical records and kidney biopsy, 24-hour urine collection, and blood tests.~Participants will take sirolimus tablets once a day for 1 year. Three 24-hour urine collections will be done before starting treatment. Blood will be drawn to measure drug levels every week for the first month after starting treatment, then every other week for 1 month, and then every 2 months until treatment stops. Patients who do not have a complete response to the drug at low levels will have their dose increased. Patients will be seen at the NIH clinic in Bethesda, Md., for the screening visit and then at 1, 4, 8, 12, and 15 months for blood and urine tests. Additional urine collections and blood tests will be done periodically throughout the 24-month study period by the patient's local physician.~Patients whose urine protein decreases on therapy will be asked to wait 3 months before starting another treatment and will monitored during that time to determine if the response is sustained. Patients whose urine protein levels do not decrease with sirolimus will not be asked to wait 3 months before starting another therapy. Follow-up with the local physician will continue at 18 and 24 months after starting the study.~Patients whose urine protein levels increase with sirolimus treatment will be taken off the study and may seek other treatment at any time.

Sirolimus is an immunosuppressive agent that was recently approved for use in organ transplantation. We propose to carry out a pilot study whose objectives are to determine the safety and efficacy profile of sirolimus in focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). Current therapy for FSGS has limited efficacy. Sirolimus was selected for the following reasons: 1) sirolimus reduces proliferation of mesangial cells and endothelial cells, 2) sirolimus reduces fibrosis in experimental models of liver and kidney disease, 3) sirolimus is a potent immunosuppressive, and other immunosuppressives including glucocorticoids and cyclosporine have shown some efficacy in FSGS, and 4) sirolimus may have a direct anti-proteinuric effect, as suggested by in vitro studies. We will recruit up to 30 patients, including adults and children greater than or equal to 13.0 years of age. The study design is open label, with therapy for one year using doses adjusted to achieve trough levels of 5-15 ng/mL during the first 4 months and if a complete remission is not achieved and sustained, 10-20 ng/mL during the remainder of the study. The primary outcome will be reduction in proteinuria, categorized as complete remission and partial remission, comparing baseline values and 12 month values. The study will recruit patients in two groups: 1) a drug washout group, for patients who can tolerate receiving no immunosuppressive therapy for 4 weeks prior to initiating sirolimus therapy, and 2) a drug overlap group, for patients who cannot tolerate cessation of immunosuppressive therapy due to severe edema or other complications of nephrotic syndrome; these patients will receive prednisone for up to 6 months while taking sirolimus (with a target of prednisone less than 20 mg QOD by month 3) or will receive cyclosporine, tacrolimus, or mycophenolate mofetil for up to 4 weeks while initiating sirolimus therapy.

INCLUSION CRITERIA~Renal biopsy showing FSGS, including all variants with the exception of HIV-associated FSGS.~Nephrotic range proteinuria, defined as 24 hour urine protein excretion greater than or equal to 3.5 g/d in adults and children weighing greater than or equal to 70 kg and greater than or equal to 50 mg/kg in adults or children weighing less than 70 kg. Proteinuria will be assessed with at least three 24 hour urine collections obtained during the baseline period (for these collections, there is no minimum period, the maximum period is 3 months prior to study entry, and the most recent must be within 1 month of entry). These measurements will be obtained while on angiotensin antagonist therapy (if tolerant of this medication) and will exclude urine collections judged inadequate based on creatinine appearance. For patients in the drug overlap group, baseline proteinuria will be determined from patient's records demonstrating on at least one urine collection, proteinuria greater than 3.5 g/d while off immunosuppressive therapy.~Ability and willingness to provide informed consent (adults greater than or equal to 18.0 years) or assent (children greater than or equal to 13.0 years).~Completion of a therapeutic trial of at least one of the following, without sustained CR:~Steroid therapy for greater than or equal to 8 weeks, either daily or alternate day or intermittent (oral or parenteral)~Cyclosporine or tacrolimus or mycophenolate mofetil for greater than or equal to 3 months~Cyclophosphamide (either oral or intravenous) or chlorambucil for greater than or equal to three months~EXCLUSION CRITERIA~Intolerance to sirolimus or prior use of sirolimus for FSGS.~Estimated GFR less than 30 mL/min/1.73m(2). The rational is that 1) sirolimus therapy is most likely to be beneficial during the early phase of FSGS, before progressive fibrosis in the glomeruli and interstitium has become the dominant abnormality and may be irreversible, and 2) we wish to enroll patients who are unlikely to progress to ESRD within the one year treatment period.~Patients following renal transplant. We wish to rest sirolimus with a minimum of other immunosuppressive therapy.~Children less than 13.0 years.~Uncontrolled hypertension, defined as BP greater than 140/90 on greater than 25% of measurements.~Pregnancy, lactation, or unwillingness or inability to practice effective contraception. The rationale is that the safety of sirolimus in pregnancy has not been determined and excretion via breast milk may alter pharmacokinetics.~Chronic active infections requiring treatment, including untreated reactive PPD, or any infection sufficiently severe require parenteral antibiotics during the preceding 30 days. The rationale is that immunosuppression may exacerbate infection.~HIV-1 infection or hepatitis B infection or hepatitis C infection (defined as detectable RNA off anti-viral therapy). The rationale is that immunosuppression may exacerbate infection.~Chronic liver disease sufficiently severe to impair sirolimus metabolism; this would include prolonged pro-thrombin time.~Basal thrombocytopenia less than 100,000 cells/microliter or absolute neutrophil count less than 2000 cells/microliter or hematocrit less than 30. The rationale is that sirolimus may further lower cell counts.~Cancer diagnosis or cancer recurrence within the preceding 5 years, excluding basal cell carcinoma of the skin. The rationale is that cancer progression may be accelerated by immunosuppression.

Assessment of Ventilatory Management During General Anesthesia for Robotic Surgery
|
The aim of this study is to assess the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications in patients undergoing mechanical ventilation during general anesthesia for robotic surgery, to characterize current practices of mechanical ventilation and to evaluate a possible association between ventilatory parameters and postoperative pulmonary complications.
|
Research questions:~What is the incidence of PPC in patients undergoing mechanical ventilation during general anesthesia for robotic surgery?~Are the outcomes in patients undergoing robotic surgery dependent on ventilation practice and surgical positioning?~What is the incidence of patients at high risk for PPC undergoing robotic surgery~Methods:~In this international observational study, consecutive patients undergoing mechanical ventilation for robotic surgery are eligible for participation. Patients in participating centers will be screened on a daily basis. Patients undergoing mechanical ventilation for robotic surgery will be included during a 30-day period. The inclusion period will be flexible for participating centers and determined at a later stage together with the study-coordinator.~Time points of data collection:~Demographic data and baseline data, including severity scores (e.g. ASA) and ARISCAT, are collected from the clinical files on the day of surgery~Ventilation settings, gas exchange variables, positioning and vital parameters are collected hourly during surgery~Chest radiography data from available chest X-rays (i.e., no extra chest X-rays are obtained)~Predefined complications are recorded from medical chart until the first five postoperative days, discharge from hospital or death, whatever comes first~Length of hospital stay, and hospital mortality~Centres: The investigators aim to recruit 20 - 50 centers worldwide.~Ethics Approval: National coordinators will be responsible for clarifying the need for ethics approval and applying for this where appropriate according to local policy. Centres will not be permitted to record data unless ethics approval or an equivalent waiver is in place. The investigators expect that in most, if not every participating country, a patient informed consent is not be required.~Monitoring: Due to the observational nature of the study, a DSMB is not be necessary.~Study Population: Adult patients undergoing mechanical ventilation for robotic surgery.~Data Collection: Data will be collected at inclusion, during surgery and every day during five days, and day of hospital discharge. Data will be coded by a patient identification number (PIN) of which the code will be kept safe at the local sites. The data will be transcribed by local investigators onto an internet based electronic CRF.~Sample Size Calculation: A formal sample size will not be calculated, seen the largely descriptive character of this investigation. Data from 500 patients is expected to be collected, which will be sufficient to test the hypotheses.~Statistical Analysis: Patient characteristics will be compared and described by appropriate statistics. Student's t-test or Mann-Whitney U-tests are used to compare continuous variables and chi-squared tests are used for categorical variables. Data are expressed as means (SD), medians (interquartile range) and proportions as appropriate. Comparisons between and within groups are performed using one-way ANOVA and post-hoc analyses for continuous variables.~The primary analysis concerns the determination of the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications in patients undergoing mechanical ventilation for robotic surgery.~To identify potential factors associated with outcome like development of postoperative pulmonary complications, or death, univariable analyses will be performed. A multi-level multivariable logistic regression model will be used to identify independent risk factors. A gradual approach will be used to enter new terms into the model, with a limit of p < 0.2 to enter the terms. Time to event variables will be analyzed using Cox regression and visualized by Kaplan-Meier.~Organization: The study is conducted by the PROtective VEntilation Network (PROVENet). National co-ordinators will lead the project within individual nations and identify participating hospitals, translate study paperwork, distribute study paperwork and ensure necessary regulatory approvals are in place. They provide assistance to the participating clinical sites in trial management, record keeping and data management.

Comparison of Prosthetic Feet for People With Syme's Amputation (XF Symes Study)
|
The purpose of this study is to compare the functional differences between two types of foot prostheses for people with ankle disarticulation (Syme's) amputations. The two feet being tested are low- and high-profile feet, with the difference being the latter has an extended keel and attaches to the posterior of the prosthetic socket, rather than the distal end. The hypothesis is that the high-profile foot (i.e., the crossover foot) will lead to functional and biomechanical improvements compared to low-profile feet.
|
Syme's prostheses are typically limited to low-profile prosthetic feet due to clearance restrictions below the prosthetic socket. As a result, the functional benefits provided by the long residual limb are mitigated by prosthetic design limitations. Recently, high-profile, posteriorly-attaching crossover feet have been modified for use with people who have Syme's amputation. Crossover feet theoretically improve motion and energy storage-and-return compared to traditional foot options for the Syme's level. Crossover feet also have the potential to broaden the range of high-impact activities that can be performed with a single prosthesis. However, to date there is no empirical evidence that compares functional differences when walking with high-profile crossover feet compared to low-profile feet for people with Syme's amputation. This mixed-method pilot research will use a randomized, controlled within-participants design. Investigators will assess gait biomechanics, self-reported health outcomes, and qualitative interviews to compare relative advantages and disadvantages of traditional low-profile Syme's feet and high-profile crossover feet. This proposed work will create a foundation for future research that examines the potential benefits of crossover feet in people with Syme's amputation. In addition, results from this research will be used clinically to inform prosthetic options for people with limited clearance for distally-attached prosthetic feet.

Combination Chemotherapy in Treating Patients With Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
|
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells.~PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy in treating patients who have advanced non-small cell lung cancer.
|
OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the maximum tolerated dose of ZD 1839 given intermittently or continuously and concurrently with standard doses of carboplatin and paclitaxel in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer. II. Determine the safety of ZD 1839 in these regimens in these patients. III. Determine whether the exposure of either free carboplatin or paclitaxel in an established treatment regimen is significantly altered by the addition of oral ZD 1839 in this patient population. IV. Determine the exposure of ZD 1839 before and after standard doses of carboplatin and paclitaxel to assess whether ZD 1839 steady state is significantly altered by coadministration of chemotherapy.~OUTLINE: This is an open label, 2 part, multicenter study. Part 1 is a randomized, dose escalation, 2 period, 2 sequence, crossover design. Part 2 is a nonrandomized, single dose evaluation design. Part 1: Patients are randomized to receive ZD 1839 beginning 1 week before either the first (arm I) or second (arm II) course of carboplatin and paclitaxel. Arm I: Patients receive oral ZD 1839 daily on days 1-14. On day 1 only, ZD 1839 is given twice at 12 hour intervals. Patients receive paclitaxel IV over 3 hours followed by carboplatin IV over 30 minutes on days 8 and 36. Subsequent courses consist of ZD 1839 for 14 days and paclitaxel and carboplatin every 28 days. Arm II: Patients receive paclitaxel and carboplatin as in arm I on days 1 and 29. Patients receive oral ZD 1839 daily on days 22-35. On day 22 only, ZD 1839 is given twice at 12 hour intervals. Subsequent courses are administered as in arm I. Part 2: Patients receive oral ZD 1839 daily on days 1-56. On day 1 only, ZD 1839 is given twice at 12 hour intervals. Patients receive paclitaxel and carboplatin as in part 1 on days 8 and 36. Subsequent courses consist of ZD 1839 continuously and paclitaxel and carboplatin every 28 days. Treatment continues in both parts for a maximum of 6 months in the absence of unacceptable toxicity or disease progression. In both parts 1 and 2, cohorts of 6-12 patients receive escalating doses of ZD 1839 until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 4 of 6 or 4 of 12 patients experience dose limiting toxicities.~PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A maximum of 48 patients will be accrued for this study.

Intraarticular Analgesia After Total Hip Arthroplasty, a Randomised Study
|
The purpose of this study is to determine whether wound infiltration with following single-shot bolus injection with local anesthetic and NASIDs are effective in the treatment of postoperative pain after total hip replacement compared to continuous epidural infusion.
|
Sufficient postoperative pain relief after total hip replacement is necessary to achieve normal mobilisation and a reduction of the surgical stress response. After total hip replacement epidural treatment has proven superior, with regards to pain relief, than treatment with parenteral infusions and periphery nerve blocks. Even though epidural treatment gives excellent pain relief adverse effect as motor block, urine retention, hypotension and itching occurs regularly which delays rehabilitation.~Treatment with the administration of local anesthetic in the operating field has shown its efficiency in reducing postoperative pain with a low incidence of adverse effects after various surgical procedures.~This study compares continuous epidural infusion of ropivacaine added morphine to a new technique, where ropivacaine, ketorolac and adrenaline is used to infiltrate the tissue around the hip joint during surgery, and is injected by an intraarticular catheter 8 hours postoperative.~Data of pain scores, analgesia consumption, adverse effects and mobilisation is collected for the first 4 postoperative days.

Aerobic Exercise, Balance Training, and Ataxia
|
The first aim is to show aerobic training improves degenerative cerebellar patients functionally~The second aim is to compare the effects of balance and aerobic training on degenerative cerebellar disease.
|
Individuals with degenerative cerebellar disease (DCD) exhibit gradual loss of coordination resulting in impaired balance, gait deviations, and severe, progressive disability. With no available disease-modifying medications, balance training is the primary treatment option to improve motor skills and functional performance.~Aerobic training, on the other hand, may modify DCD progression as evident from animal data. Compared to sedentary controls, aerobically trained DCD rats have enhanced lifespan, motor function, and cerebellar Purkinje cell survival. Numerous animal studies also document that aerobic training has a direct, favorable effect on the brain that includes production of neurotrophic hormones, enhancement of neuroplasticity mechanisms, and protection from neurotoxins.~The effects of aerobic training in humans with DCD are relatively unknown, despite these encouraging animal data. A single study to date has evaluated the benefits of aerobic exercise on DCD in humans, and this was a secondary outcome of the study. Although participants performed limited aerobic training during the study, modest functional benefits were still detected.~The main objective of this project will be to compare the benefits of aerobic versus balance training in DCD. The investigators hypothesize that both aerobic and balance training will improve function in DCD subjects, but that the mechanisms in which these improvements occur differ.

Lung Perfusion PET / CT Using Ga68-MAA for Preservation of Lung Function During Stereotactic Pulmonary Radiation Therapy
|
This is a prospective study evaluating the feasibility of treatment planning integrating lung perfusion PET/CT using Ga68-MAA to preserve functional lung areas during stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT).
|
Lung perfusion PET / CT is a new imaging modality based on the use of the same cold molecules as those used for a conventional perfusion lung scan. Similartly, perfusion images are obtained after intravenous administration of human albumin macroaggregates, which are embolized in pulmonary capillaries according to pulmonary blood flow. However, these cold molecules are radiolabeled, not with Technetium99m, but with Gallium68, a ß + isotope, allowing image acquisition with PET technology. The same physiological processes are therefore observed with conventional scintigraphy PET imaging, but PET is an intrinsically superior technique for image acquisition, with greater sensitivity, better spatial and temporal resolutions and the possibility to perform respiratory-gated acquisition, allowing a better definition of the pulmonary functional volumes.~The aim is to evaluate the feasability of functional lung avoidance planification using lung perfusion PET/CT imaging during SBRT.~Patients will benefit from a pre-treatment functional assessment including PET/CT imaging.~The treatment planning will be carried out in 2 stages:~First, an anatomical planning will be carried out, blinded to the PET results.~Then, a functional planning, respecting the standard constraints applied during anatomical planning, but also incorporating a new functional lung volume constraint defined by PET/CT images, will be carried out.~A follow-up will be carried out for 12 months, including repeated perfusion PET/CT imaging at 3 and 12 months.

Lung Perfusion PET / CT Using Ga68-MAA for Preservation of Lung Function During Stereotactic Pulmonary Radiation Therapy
Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
This is a prospective study evaluating the feasibility of treatment planning integrating lung perfusion PET/CT using Ga68-MAA to preserve functional lung areas during stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT).
Detailed Description
-----------------
Lung perfusion PET / CT is a new imaging modality based on the use of the same cold molecules as those used for a conventional perfusion lung scan. Similartly, perfusion images are obtained after intravenous administration of human albumin macroaggregates, which are embolized in pulmonary capillaries according to pulmonary blood flow. However, these cold molecules are radiolabeled, not with Technetium99m, but with Gallium68, a ß + isotope, allowing image acquisition with PET technology. The same physiological processes are therefore observed with conventional scintigraphy PET imaging, but PET is an intrinsically superior technique for image acquisition, with greater sensitivity, better spatial and temporal resolutions and the possibility to perform respiratory-gated acquisition, allowing a better definition of the pulmonary functional volumes. The aim is to evaluate the feasability of functional lung avoidance planification using lung perfusion PET/CT imaging during SBRT. Patients will benefit from a pre-treatment functional assessment including PET/CT imaging. The treatment planning will be carried out in 2 stages: First, an anatomical planning will be carried out, blinded to the PET results. Then, a functional planning, respecting the standard constraints applied during anatomical planning, but also incorporating a new functional lung volume constraint defined by PET/CT images, will be carried out. A follow-up will be carried out for 12 months, including repeated perfusion PET/CT imaging at 3 and 12 months.

Hemopatch Safety and Efficacy Evaluation Versus Standard Practice for Sealing the Dura in Cerebrospinal Fluid Leaks
|
Posterior fossa surgeries are generally complicated by difficulties in creating a watertight dural closure, which often requires the use of dural substitutes. In particular, surgical procedures at this location are associated with an increased rate of fluid leakage (cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)) or inflow (blood, air, etc.) creating hydrodynamic complications. Effective sealing of the dura is required to prevent such complications and infections by minimizing the introduction of irritating blood products into the CSF. Since true hermetic dural seals are often impossible to achieve, dural sealants have been developed that can be applied to the sutured dural perimeter to help prevent complications related to CSF. Adjuvant use of such sealants may be prudent, particularly in posterior fossa surgeries, as the incidence of CSF leakage has been reported to be as high as approximately 15-28% with such surgeries, with an increased risk of leakage. 5.84 times greater than supratentorial procedures.
|
Various techniques have been developed to overcome this problem and achieve a tight dural closure. Although there is published evidence showing the efficacy and safety of some of these sealants in posterior fossa surgery, the different types of pathologies and various population risk factors included in these trials make it difficult to interpret the results. Having selective inclusion criteria and including patients with a selected pathology could be essential to obtain clearer results.~Postoperative CSF leak has two aspects: one is pseudomeningocele (a subcutaneous collection of CSF); the other is a CSF fistula in which CSF reaches the skin. This second one is much more dangerous and constitutes one of the most important complications of this surgery, but the pseudomeningocele is a clinical demonstration of failure of the dural closure.~HEMOPATCH is a soft, thin, foldable and flexible collagen patch, coated with NHS-PEG. HEMOPATCH is indicated as a hemostatic device and surgical seal for procedures in which control of bleeding or leakage of other body fluids or air by conventional surgical techniques is ineffective or impractical.~Preliminary clinical evidence collects a prospective case series of 200 patients, in which the authors reviewed the use of HEMOPATCH for dural augmentation in high-risk patients from 2014 to this year. After 2 years of refining the technique, a decrease in CSF leaks from 27% to 7% was achieved, and no adverse events related to the application of the product were observed. A retrospective cohort study has recently been published comparing the use of HEMOPATCH versus routine clinical practice in 290 patients, in which 147 used standard dural reinforcement techniques, and 143 used HEMOPATCH. The CSF fistula appearance rates were 7.69% in the HEMOPATCH group, compared to 32.65% in the control group.~These recent results, along with the characteristics and properties of the patch, could make this sealant a safe and plausible option to achieve sealing after posterior fossa surgery.

(Cost)-Effectiveness of Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) in Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC)
|
A multi-centre randomized non-inferiority trial investigating the (cost-)effectiveness of Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) versus regular punch biopsy in the diagnosis and subtyping of Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC).
|
Skin cancer incidence rises worldwide due to high sun exposure and ageing. Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most prevalent form, with a lifetime risk of 16-20% in the Netherlands. Currently, the gold standard for diagnosing and subtyping BCC is a punch biopsy. Since this technique is invasive, new non-invasive diagnostic methods have been developed, including optical coherence tomography (OCT). In patients with clinical and dermoscopic suspicion of BCC, OCT makes it possible to confirm and subtype BCC with high confidence, thereby obviating the need for a punch biopsy in a substantial part of patients. Hence, BCC diagnosis and treatment can be accomplished in one day. As a result, patients experience less distress and costs can be saved. By discussing diagnosis and treatment with the patient directly, care can be provided more efficiently, preventing treatment delay and saving extra hospital visits. The investigators hypothesize that the use of OCT is a cost-effective strategy when compared to regular care (always punch biopsy). However, it is important to evaluate whether an alternative OCT guided diagnostic approach does not lead to an unacceptable increase in risk of recurrent BCC.

Gefitinib With or Without Tamoxifen in Treating Patients With Tamoxifen-Resistant Metastatic Breast Cancer
|
RATIONALE: Gefitinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth. Hormone therapy using tamoxifen may fight breast cancer by blocking the use of estrogen by the tumor cells. Combining gefitinib with tamoxifen may be effective in killing tumor cells that have become resistant (stopped responding) to tamoxifen.~PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying how well giving gefitinib together with tamoxifen works compared to gefitinib alone in treating patients with metastatic breast cancer that has stopped responding to tamoxifen.
|
OBJECTIVES:~Primary~Compare the rate of clinical benefit in patients with tamoxifen-resistant breast cancer treated with gefitinib with or without tamoxifen.~Secondary~Determine the toxic effects of these regimens in these patients.~Determine whether changes in fludeoxyglucose F 18 uptake by positron emission tomography scan and changes in plasma DNA levels are indicators of an early response to gefitinib in these patients.~Determine the pharmacokinetics of these regimens in these patients.~OUTLINE: This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. Patients are stratified according to population (intent-to-treat population comprising all patients who receive 1 dose of treatment vs a subset of the intent-to-treat population, excluding patients with nonmeasurable/evaluable only disease). Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.~Arm I: Patients receive oral tamoxifen once daily. Beginning 14 days after the start of tamoxifen, patients receive oral gefitinib once daily.~Arm II: Patients receive oral placebo once daily. Beginning 14 days after the start of placebo, patients receive oral gefitinib as in arm I.~In both arms, treatment continues for 26 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.~Patients are followed for 6 months.~PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 46 patients (23 per treatment arm) will be accrued for this study within 23 months.

Adverse Events and Genomics in Schizophrenia
|
The purpose of this study is to find genes that predict whether or not a person will develop side effects to antipsychotic medications, such as weight gain, blood sugar dysregulation, or immune cell abnormalities. We will be collecting blood samples from participants who are taking second-generation antipsychotic medications. These blood samples will be stored over the long-term in a biobank, and will be used for later genetic testing and other cell-based studies.
|
All data (including blood samples and medical information gathered from participants) will be labelled with each participant's unique coded identifier. Participants' identities will be matched with their coded identifier in a single, hard-copy of a Master Coding List. The maintenance and security of this list is the responsibility of the Principal Investigator.~All processing steps of the blood samples, including details of the blood draw, nucleic acid extraction, sequence library preparation, and sequence analysis will be documented in a Microsoft Excel worksheet. This worksheet will be encrypted for privacy.~Anonymized aliquots of blood samples (as well as any derived cell cultures) will be barcoded before long-term storage in a surveillance-monitored, secured freezer at -80 degrees Celsius. Samples within the freezer will be maintained via a positional numbered grid within the Laboratory Information Management System. This grid will also allow the study team to link each barcoded sample to a participant's coded identifier.~Mapped genomic sequences and other data collected from participants will be saved in password-protected folders on the UBC server. The coded sequence data will be transferred to the Department of Genetics and Genomic Sciences at Mount Sinai School of Medicine (MSSM) for further analyses. Data transfer will occur by Two Factor Identification. The MSSM secure network is Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) certified for secure handling of patient sequence data. The transfer of sequence data between UBC and MSSM will be performed under a material transfer agreement which requires that 1) all data and analysis be confined within the secure, password-protected database defined by UBC, 2) not distributed to any third party, and 3) both raw and analyzed data be destroyed from the MSSM monthly. This study is not required to comply with any U.S. federal regulations, as the group in MSSM will not have access to any identifying information about our participants.

Adverse Events and Genomics in Schizophrenia
Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
The purpose of this study is to find genes that predict whether or not a person will develop side effects to antipsychotic medications, such as weight gain, blood sugar dysregulation, or immune cell abnormalities. We will be collecting blood samples from participants who are taking second-generation antipsychotic medications. These blood samples will be stored over the long-term in a biobank, and will be used for later genetic testing and other cell-based studies.
Detailed Description
-----------------
All data (including blood samples and medical information gathered from participants) will be labelled with each participant's unique coded identifier. Participants' identities will be matched with their coded identifier in a single, hard-copy of a Master Coding List. The maintenance and security of this list is the responsibility of the Principal Investigator. All processing steps of the blood samples, including details of the blood draw, nucleic acid extraction, sequence library preparation, and sequence analysis will be documented in a Microsoft Excel worksheet. This worksheet will be encrypted for privacy. Anonymized aliquots of blood samples (as well as any derived cell cultures) will be barcoded before long-term storage in a surveillance-monitored, secured freezer at -80 degrees Celsius. Samples within the freezer will be maintained via a positional numbered grid within the Laboratory Information Management System. This grid will also allow the study team to link each barcoded sample to a participant's coded identifier. Mapped genomic sequences and other data collected from participants will be saved in password-protected folders on the UBC server. The coded sequence data will be transferred to the Department of Genetics and Genomic Sciences at Mount Sinai School of Medicine (MSSM) for further analyses. Data transfer will occur by Two Factor Identification. The MSSM secure network is Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) certified for secure handling of patient sequence data. The transfer of sequence data between UBC and MSSM will be performed under a material transfer agreement which requires that 1) all data and analysis be confined within the secure, password-protected database defined by UBC, 2) not distributed to any third party, and 3) both raw and analyzed data be destroyed from the MSSM monthly. This study is not required to comply with any U.S. federal regulations, as the group in MSSM will not have access to any identifying information about our participants.

Gutkha Pan Masala Ban Impact Study in Mumbai
|
Present study is conducted on Gutkha and Pan Masala users to find out the impact of ban on them. It will also try to find out awareness about ban and source of information for the same. Availability of Gutkha and Pan Masala in post ban period will also be assessed.
|
Background: Based on the various reports indicating health hazards of gutka and pan masala there are various efforts to ban the production, consumption, sale, storage and transportation of these products by various states in India. The situation had gone to such an extent that government had no other option than to ban these products. In India gutka is classed as a food item and falls within the purview of Prevention of Food Adulteration act. The Central Committee on Food Standards (CCFS) had already reported a complete ban to the Central Government a decade ago itself. The reasons unanimously given by CCFS for a complete ban on Gutka were 1) Children are getting addicted to these products in large numbers; 2) Users develop Oral Submucous Fibrosis and cancer over a relatively shorter duration and die earlier compared to smokers; 3) Women prefer smokeless tobacco due to social disapproval of their smoking and therefore may be particularly vulnerable to gutka addiction. Tamil Nadu had banned Gutka in 2001 itself. Andhra Pradesh, Goa, Maharashtra & Rajasthan had also followed the same in August 2002.4 Subsequently following some legal battles ban on Gutka in Maharashtra was lifted. But now following the example of eight other states in India, Government of Maharashtra has finally banned the manufacture, storage, distribution or sale of Gutka and Pan masala, containing either tobacco and/or nicotine or Magnesium Carbonate as ingredients by whatsoever name these are available in the market and any other products marketed separately to constitute as Gutka and Pan Masala, etc. as final products from July 19, 2012.8 The appeal filed by some manufacturers in Bombay High Court has been quashed and the ban is to continue now unless it is reversed by the Supreme Court of India. Sensing the possibility of Supreme Court (SC) appeal by gutka and pan masala manufacturers the Government of Maharashtra has already filed an caveat there so that there plea will be heard first by SC before passing any order in this matter.~There is a large population addicted to Gutkha and pan-masala all over India. We would like to study the impact of this ban on the users of this product and on the tobacco vendors. Even if the ban is reversed by the Supreme Court, we would still like to study its impact in the interim period when the ban was imposed.~Rationale: Seeing the addictive potential of the contents of gutka and pan masala, it will be interesting to record the effect of ban of these products on the regular consumers. Whether they have stopped the consumption or are still getting the products (by smuggled routes) is an important issue. If they have shifted to other tobacco products, it will be important to study the shift pattern. If at all some withdrawal symptoms are reported by them, it will be helpful to record it so as to devise our cessation strategies. If the previous regular consumers have stopped the consumption of gutka and pan masala because of ban, it is positive sign in support of legal ban for the maintenance of proper public health. The response of gutka and pan masala users to the ban has to be studied. To what extent they have accepted the ban and what reaction they are giving are important issues to be studied. In depth analysis of all these points will be helpful in the development of further public health strategy as far as use of gutka and pan masala is concerned.~The second aspect of this study is to investigate the response and implications of tobacco vendors to the ban. In last few years there was tremendous increase in vendors of tobacco especially Gutka and Pan-masala. These products being cheaply available were marketed in almost all corners of cities and villages. Even public transport vehicle were also flooded by the presence of many street vendors. Ultimately all these vendors were working as the merchants of deadly tobacco products. So the study of the response of these people to ban is an issue of interest. The implication of the ban on them if studied in depth can help us to devise some strategy for their rehabilitation and preventive programmes to deter them from indulging into such type of business. We may also get some newer insights to strengthen the ban.~Aim and Objectives:~To assess the knowledge of gutkha and pan-masala users regarding the ban~To assess the awareness regarding health hazards of gutkha and pan masala among the users~To investigate the effectiveness with which the gutkha and pan masala ban has been implemented~To determine the impact of gutkha and pan masala ban on previous users in terms of availability, reduction of use, quitting, switch over to other tobacco products, cost of available products etc.~To understand the perception of gutkha and pan masala among users regarding the ban.~To record any personal positive or negative experience (e.g. health effects) that the user experienced after the ban.~To assess the perception of tobacco vendors regarding the ban.~To understand the financial implications of the ban on the vendors~To record if the vendors still sell gutkha and pan-masala and the details regarding the same (source, brands, costing etc.)~To record if the tobacco vendors themselves were gutka and pan masala users and their tobacco related behaviour after the ban.~To observe if there are empty sachets of Gutkha/ pan masala lying near the shops of tobacco vendors~Secondary Objective:~1. To record the prevalence of gutkha and pan-masala use in low socio economic community in Mumbai suburbs (before the ban was imposed).~Methodology:~Study type : Cross sectional study Study area : PMGP area - Pocket No. 6, Mankhurd, Mumbai Low socio-economic community in suburbs of Mumbai Total population: Around 6000 Inclusion criteria : For survey: All tobacco users Part I - All the persons (≥ 18 years) using gutkha and/or pan masala (at the time of implementation of ban) in the selected community.~Part-II All tobacco vendors (≥ 18 years) in the selected locality Exclusion criteria : Those dead, shifted out of the area, unwilling to give consent and severely ill will be excluded Sample size : The selected community PMGP area - Pocket No. 6, Mankhurd has a total population of around 6000, with 1100 tobacco users (as documented in the previous departmental program) will be surveyed to enlist the gutka and pan-masala users who are the eligible participants for the Part I of the trial (Expected about 75-90). For Part II of the trial all tobacco vendors in the PMGP area - Pocket No. 6, Mankhurd will be invited for participation. (Expected about 10) Study duration : Three months Study tool : Two separate Pre-designed and pre-tested questionnaires to be administered by trained Medical Social Workers, one for the gutka and pan-masala users and the other for the tobacco vendors.~Statistical analysis : The data entry will be done by EDP Technicians in SPSS software version 19. Data errors will be checked. The compiled data will be analysed with the help of Stata software. The qualitative data will be analysed with the help of Non parametric tests. The effects of the ban on change in tobacco habit and various factors responsible for the same will be analysed using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis.~Technical manpower:~Medical Social Workers: 2 EDP Technician: 1~The present study is proposed to be conducted at PMGP area (Pocket No.6), which is one of the clusters of the mobile outreach programme of the department of Preventive Oncology. Under this programme women are screened for breast, cervix and oral cavity cancers. A list of male and female tobacco users in this area will be made available from the previous program data. This area is being selected for the present trial since our observation suggests that the prevalence of tobacco usage among both men and women is high in this area though the data inputting is still on-going. The project will be carried out even if the ban is lifted by the Supreme Court to understand the behaviour of the gutka and pan-masala users in the interim period.~At first all the important stakeholders in the concerned issue will be identified.viz Community leaders, NGOs, health care providers etc. The plan to establish community rapport with the help of these stakeholders for the current project will be developed. Then required staff members will be recruited. They will be given necessary training at Preventive Oncology Department. Pre-designed proforma will be pilot tested in community and necessary changes will be made. Maps of the households are available from our previous program. However, extensive mapping of the tobacco vendors in the area and detailed micro-plan to implement the project will be undertaken. Suitable time of the day will be identified for interview so as to maximise the response rate.~The Medical Social workers will undertake house to house visits only to houses of male and female tobacco users in the community (as identified in the previous project). The list of the same will be made available to them from the previous program data. The MSWs will conduct a short survey to identify the Gutkha and Pan-masala users amongst this population (at the time of implementation of the ban). They will be taken into confidence and explained about the objectives and methods of the study. They will then be invited to participate in the trial and a written informed consent in local language will be obtained from them. Left hand thumb impression will be obtained from those who are illiterates. A person from the same community will be invited to witness the procedure of informed consent and will sign as an impartial witness. Help of a translator will be taken whenever necessary. The invited participants will be given the patient information sheet. Only after obtaining the informed consent the participants will be enrolled in the trial and will be interviewed with the help of pre-designed and pre-tested proforma questionnaire. A pamphlet containing information regarding the health hazards of tobacco in both pictoral form and written in local language will be given to the participant after the interview.~The second aspect of the study deals with the response and implications of the ban on the tobacco vendors. Here all the tobacco vendors in the same selected community PMGP area (Pocket No.6) will be mapped and enumerated by MSWs. After initial interaction with them, suitable time of the day will be selected to interview them again to get the maximum possible response. After explaining the purpose of the study, they will then be invited to participate in the trial. A written informed consent in local language will be obtained from them. Left hand thumb impression will be obtained from those who are illiterates. A person from the same community will be invited to witness the procedure of informed consent and will sign as an impartial witness. Help of a translator will be taken whenever necessary. The invited participants will be given the patient information sheet. Only after obtaining the informed consent the participants will be enrolled in the trial. They will be interviewed using another set of questionnaire so as to understand their response and implications to the ban. Also observational survey will be made in the surrounding area to see if there are gutkha/ pan masala packets in the shop, direct or surrogate advertisements nearby, empty sachets of Gutkha and pan masala lying in the nearby area etc.~The data collection will be completed in six months time. Data analysis will be done and logical interpretations will be drawn and publicized so as to develop further strategies for advocacy in support of the ban.

Diagnostic Protocol Of Painful Hip
|
Nondisplaced hip fractures may be radiographically occult and require MRI or single photon emission CT bone scintigraphy for accurate diagnosis. Both examinations are expensive and are not readily available in many hospitals. Ultrasound (US) examination is relatively inexpensive and preliminary data had demonstrated its efficacy in detecting occult fractures in other sites. Our objective is to evaluate US examination as a screening tool for occult hip fractures in posttraumatic painful hips in the elderly.

Family-Focused Therapy for Individuals at High Clinical Risk for Psychosis: A Confirmatory Efficacy Trial
|
The present study is a confirmatory efficacy trial of Family Focused Therapy for youth at clinical high risk for psychosis (FFT-CHR). This trial is sponsored by seven mature CHR clinical research programs from the North American Prodrome Longitudinal Study (NAPLS). The young clinical high risk sample (N = 220 youth ages 13-25) is to be followed at 6-month intervals for 18 months.

This randomized, single blind trial will compare outcomes from a 6-month FFT-CHR intervention and a control condition (enhanced care, or EC) matched to the FFT-CHR in duration (6 months) and access to a clinician. Participants families in FFT-CHR are provided 18 family sessions augmented by a therapy app with content and surveys, while participants in the EC condition are provided three family sessions plus five monthly individual support and case management sessions. Duration of therapy sessions is one hour.~Main Goals of FFT-CHR (Experimental Treatment)~To assist young clients and their family in: developing a common understanding of CHR symptoms; recognizing early signs of escalating symptoms; practicing individual and family coping strategies; and pre-planning family responses to any escalation in symptoms. When families have poor understanding of CHR symptoms and strategies for their management, this can fuel stressful home dynamics and contribute to youth withdrawal and decompensation.~For the youth and their family members to learn to express more constructive messages during their interactions, particularly regarding highly charged topics such as curbing risky behaviors and management of the offspring's symptoms.~For youth and family members to practice skills for resolving family or extrafamilial conflicts (usually those related to the youth's functioning) through effective communication and problem solving~The control condition, Enhanced Care (EC) shares the psychoeducation goal of FFT-CHR but is more oriented toward skill-training for the individual patient. Whereas it does not offer the same level of opportunity for families to build communication and problem-solving skills, the family is actively involved in helping the individual develop a relapse prevention plan. Monthly individual sessions focus on the development of individual coping skills such as symptom tracking and problem-solving. Both conditions require families to submit real-time mobile app surveys to assist with progress tracking.~Study Aims~The primary clinical outcomes are prodromal positive symptom scores examined immediately after treatment (6 months) and at 18 months. Secondary outcomes are time to remission of positive symptoms and psychosocial functioning over 18 months. Temporal relationships between early changes in treatment targets and later changes in symptoms or psychosocial functioning will also be examined.~Primary Hypotheses~FFT-CHR (vs. EC) will be associated with greater improvement in positive symptoms by end of therapy and follow-up (6 and 18 months), and greater high-risk syndrome remission and better psychosocial functioning at 18 months~FFT-CHR (vs. EC) will be associated with greater improvement in family communication and problem solving at 6 months~FFT-CHR (vs. EC) will be associated with greater improvement in youth-perceived parental criticism at 6 months. In turn, improvements in family communication, problem-solving and youths' perceptions of criticism will be associated with downstream improvements in the youths' primary outcomes (positive symptoms) and secondary outcomes (time to remission and psychosocial functioning) over 18 months. Thus, improvements in family functioning are hypothesized to mediate the relationship between treatment condition (FFT-CHR, EC) and changes in primary and secondary outcomes in the individual with CHR syndrome.~CHR individuals with higher baseline risk of conversion are hypothesized to improve more on family communication over 6 months and primary and secondary outcomes over 18 months in FFT-CHR than in EC.

Family-Focused Therapy for Individuals at High Clinical Risk for Psychosis: A Confirmatory Efficacy Trial
Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
The present study is a confirmatory efficacy trial of Family Focused Therapy for youth at clinical high risk for psychosis (FFT-CHR). This trial is sponsored by seven mature CHR clinical research programs from the North American Prodrome Longitudinal Study (NAPLS). The young clinical high risk sample (N = 220 youth ages 13-25) is to be followed at 6-month intervals for 18 months.
Detailed Description
-----------------

Participants families in FFT-CHR are provided 18 family sessions augmented by a therapy app with content and surveys, while participants in the EC condition are provided three family sessions plus five monthly individual support and case management sessions. Duration of therapy sessions is one hour. Main Goals of FFT-CHR (Experimental Treatment) To assist young clients and their family in: developing a common understanding of CHR symptoms; recognizing early signs of escalating symptoms; practicing individual and family coping strategies; and pre-planning family responses to any escalation in symptoms.

Motor Training in PD
|
The purpose of this research study is to learn more about brain activity when individuals with and without Parkinson disease (PD) move their lower limbs. The investigators also want to see if and how two different types of partnered dance affect brain activity in individuals with and without PD. Testing will take place at the Atlanta VA Medical Center and at Emory University. The investigators expect to enroll about 140 people for this study over a five-year period.
|
Persons with Parkinson's disease (PD) have impaired mobility, which adversely affects their quality of life. The effectiveness of adapted tango dance, in which participants both lead (internally guide: IG) and follow (externally guide: EG) movement has been shown. To improve outcomes in those with PD, the underlying brain mechanisms for both motor impairments and improvement must be studied. IG and EG movements have distinct brain activity patterns. Individuals with PD have trouble with IG movement but this problem is helped by strategies used while leading. During following, participants with PD can use many external cues, which helps movement in PD, because EG tasks bypass the basal ganglia, the part of the brain affected by PD. In older persons with PD, the investigators aim to:~determine brain activation patterns during IG and EG foot movement.~look into effects of IG and EG training on brain activation along with mobility improvements.~The investigators will begin with a functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging test in a scanner. The investigators will look at brain area correlates of a clinically-used foot-tapping task, during IG and EG conditions in older persons with and without PD. Then, the investigators will assess the relative effectiveness of IG versus EG training during an adapted tango class, compared to a group that participates in health education, for improved mobility and foot tapping. Participants with PD will be assessed for disease severity. They will receive tests of outcome measures while OFF and ON PD-specific medications at the following time points:~1 week before training~1 week after training~1 month after training Participants must attend 20 lessons of IG or EG adapted tango in 12 weeks, taught by an experienced instructor. In the functional MRI (fMRI) scanner, the investigators will assess participants for improved foot tapping after training. The investigators will also look at changes in activation in specific brain circuits along with training effects upon mobility.~The long-term goal is to improve motor training as much as possible for persons with PD by understanding foot movement brain circuitry in PD as well as brain changes in circuitry through which training is effective. This work proposes to illumine information about brain function that is very important to continued progress in rehabilitative care of persons with PD.

Effect of Agave Syrup, Placebo, and No Treatment on Nocturnal Cough and Sleep Quality for Coughing Infants/Toddlers and Their Parents
|
Cough is a frequent symptom in children and infants and is one of the most common reasons parents visit a healthcare provider for their child. The US Food and Drug Administration has issued a warning that over-the-counter cough and cold medicines including antihistamines, decongestants, anti-tussives, and expectorants should not be administered to children younger than 2 years of age due not only to lack of proven efficacy, but also because of important safety concerns. Honey, another method of soothing cough cannot be used in children <1 year due to concerns for infantile botulism. A preparation from agave syrup has been created to address the need for an infant cough syrup. Although no studies have formally evaluated the use of agave nectar for nocturnal cough associated with Upper Respiratory Infections, the demulcent effect and sweet taste of agave nectar may provide some relief from cough in children.

VTE and the Related Factors Associated With Higher Rates of PE After a DVT in Southwestern China
|
Little is known about the current management status of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in Southwestern China. We aimed to investigate the status of anticoagulant administration in VTE in Southwestern China and assess the potential predictors of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) complicated pulmonary embolism (PE). We extracted data from YiduCloud database from December 2006 to November 2018 and performed a cross-sectional survey of VTE. The demographics, laboratory tests, and anticoagulants were collected and analyzed in the logistic regression model, classification tree and Random Forest model.
|
We established a collaborative epidemiological work of southwestern China for our cross-sectional survey sample, which included hospitalized patients in the seven main medical centers who met the inclusion criteria. The Human Research Committee of Chongqing Medical University approved this study and waived the need for informed consent. Patients were eligible to be included in the study if they are admitted or discharged with a diagnosis of DVT or/and PE and if they ever received treatment in the seven medical centers between December 2006 to November 2018.

Lactobacillus GG Supplementation During Pediatric Burn Injuries
|
Critical illness and the therapies that accompany it are associated with a disruption in the ecological equilibrium of the GI tract that can ultimately lead to infection. Lactobacillus GG, a probiotic, replenishes the healthy flora of the intestinal tract and may decrease the risk of diarrhea and infection during critical illness. However, little is known about the impact of probiotics following a burn injury and the mechanisms behind the proposed benefits. The hypothesis of this research is that Lactobacillus GG decreases the incidence of diarrhea and infection in burned children receiving antibiotic therapy. The specific aim of this research is to determine the impact of Lactobacillus GG on the incidence of diarrhea and infection among burned children (>20% TBSA) receiving antibiotic therapy.

The specific aim of this research is to determine the impact of Lactobacillus GG on the incidence of diarrhea and infection among burned children (>20% TBSA) receiving antibiotic therapy.~Subjects:~All subjects will be recruited from the Shriners Hospitals for Children in Boston. Patients of any age admitted to Shriners Hospitals for Children in Boston that match the following inclusion criteria will be considered for this study 1)burn wound size of at least 20% of the body surface area, 2)requires antibiotic therapy. Exclusion criteria includes: 1) < 20% total body surface area burn, 2)does not require antibiotic therapy, 3)only requires post-operative antibiotic therapy, 4)bowel obstruction, 5)milk allergy.~Study Design:~This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. Patients will be randomly assigned to receive Lactobacillus GG (n = 47) or a placebo (n = 47) within 3 days of initiation of antibiotic therapy. Randomization will occur by using a computerized randomization list. A pharmacist, who is not a member of the study staff, will assign each of the 2 supplement groups a number and label the supplement bottles accordingly.~Methods:~Lactobacillus GG, a nonpathogenic microorganism, will be administered in this study. A dose of 1010 colony factor units (cfu) twice daily will be given to the experimental group (n =47). The control group will receive a placebo (n = 47) that will be identical in appearance to the probiotic. All supplements will be administered orally or via feeding tube. The study endpoint will be 10 days after antibiotic use is discontinued or patient discharge Parameters measured will include 1) the occurrence of pneumonia or infection in the wound, blood, or urine, as defined by The National Nosocomial Infection Surveillance System (A localized or systemic condition that results from adverse reaction to the presence of an infectious agent(s) or toxin(s)) and clarified by the Infection Control Nurse, 2) incidence of diarrhea defined as 3 or more loose or watery stools per 24 hours, 3) weekly weights and labs (including total protein, albumin, prealbumin and C-reactive protein) as obtained per routine care, 4) length of antibiotic use, 5) length of stay.

Treatment of Older Patients With B-precursor ALL With Sequential Dose Reduced Chemotherapy and Blinatumomab
|
The trial proposed here attempts to reduce induction chemotherapy to phase I of standard induction in patients with B-precursor ALL. Induction phase II will be replaced by blinatumomab.~The initial treatment phase is followed by sequential chemotherapy and further blinatumomab cycles.
|
Blinatumomab is a bispecific single-chain antibody construct designed to link B cells and T cells resulting in T-cell activation and a cytotoxic T-cell response against CD19 expressing cells. In Phase II-III clinical trials 43-69 % of the patients treated with blinatumomab in relapsed/refractory ALL with poor prognostic features, achieved a complete hematologic remission and around 80 % of these obtained a molecular remission as well. Blinatumomab thus has demonstrated significant antileukemic activity in relapsed/refractory adult ALL. The ultimate goal for optimised management of adult ALL is to integrate targeted compounds with known single-drug activity into first-line treatment.

Impact of Employee Wellness Programme
|
The introduction of a wellness programme for workers employed in a clothing factory will improve quality of life, pain, attendance at work and levels of physical activity.
|
Introduction: The prevalence of health risk behaviours is growing amongst South African employees. Health risk behaviours have been identified as a major contributor to reduced health related quality of life (HRQoL) and the increase prevalence of non-communicable diseases. Worksite wellness programmes promise to promote behaviour changes amongst employees and to improve their HRQoL.~Aims: The aim of this study was to evaluate the short-term efficacy of an employee wellness programme on HRQoL, health behaviour change, levels of self efficacy, pain intensity, body mass index (BMI) and absenteeism amongst clothing and textile manufacturing employees.~Methods: The study was a randomised control trial consisting of 80 participants from three clothing manufacturing companies in South Africa. The experimental group was subjected to a wellness programme based on the principles of cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) as well as weekly supervised exercise classes over six weeks. The control group received a once-off health promotion talk and various educational pamphlets, with no further intervention. Measurements were recorded at baseline and at six weeks post-intervention. Outcome measures used included the EQ-5D, Brief Pain Inventory-SF, Stanford Exercise Behaviours Scale, Stanford Self-Efficacy Scale, Stanford Self-Rated Health Scale, BMI and absenteeism.~Data Analysis: All the data were analysed with the Statistica-8 software program. Although t-tests are the most commonly used statistical method for evaluating the differences in the means between two groups (e.g. control and experimental), it assumes that the variable is normally distributed. Thus, because the ordinal data were not normally distributed, non-parametric tests were used to evaluate the differences in the medians between the two groups and to determine the level of significance. The Sign test was used in place of the paired t-test to determine the within group changes. The Mann-Whitney U test was used in place of the independent t-test to determine the difference between the two groups.

Efficacy and Safety of Nasal Glucagon for Treatment of Hypoglycemia in Adults
|
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and safety of 3 milligrams (mg) glucagon (glucagon nasal powder) administered nasally compared with commercially available glucagon given by intramuscular injection.
|
Each glucagon dosing visit was conducted after an overnight fast of at least 8 h with a starting plasma glucose >= 90 mg/dL. Hypoglycemia was induced by an intravenous (IV) infusion of regular insulin diluted in normal saline during the clinic visit. Five minutes after stopping the insulin infusion (once the plasma glucose was <60 mg/dL), participants were treated with either a 3 mg glucagon dose nasally or 1 mg of glucagon administered by intramuscular (IM) injection.~After a wash-out period of 7 days or more, participants returned to the clinic and the procedure repeated with each participant crossed over to the other treatment. As such, each participant underwent two episodes of insulin-induced hypoglycemia in random order and received glucagon nasal powder during one episode and commercially available glucagon (GlucaGen, Novo Nordisk) by IM injection during the other episode.

| Nasal and Non-nasal Effects/Symptoms | Symptoms of runny nose, nasal congestion and/or itching, sneezing, watery and/or itchy eyes, redness of eyes, and itching of ears and/or throat were assessed. This was done via the Nasal Non-nasal Score Questionnaire. Each of the 9 symptoms is assigned an integer value from 0 to 3; higher values indicate more severe symptoms (a score of 0 indicates no symptoms). The reported results indicate the cohort median out of a possible maximum value of 27 (summing all 9 questions for each subject and reporting the median/IQR across participants). | Pre-dose; 15, 30, 60, and 90 post glucagon administration |
| Recovery From Symptoms of Hypoglycemia | Recovery from hypoglycemia symptoms were assessed using the Edinburgh Hypoglycemia Scale. The Edinburgh Hypoglycemia Symptom Scale measures the intensity of 15 commonly experienced hypoglycemic symptoms on a 7-point Likert scale (1 = not present, 7 = very intense). The higher the score, the more intense the hypoglycemia symptoms. The sum of each symptom score would yield a range of 15 to 105 (i.e., 15 x 7 =105). The total score was calculated as the sum of each symptom score minus 15, and summarized at each time point by treatment group. | Pre-dose;15, 30, 45 and 60 minutes following administration of glucagon |

The Effects of Telerehabilitation and Supervised Stabilization Exercises in Individuals With Nonspecific Chronic Low Back Pain
|
This study aims to investigate the effects of telerehabilitation and supervised stabilization exercises on pain, functionality, kinesophobia and quality of life in individuals with non-specific chronic low back pain. 72 individuals who voluntarily agree to participate in the study will be included. This study divides the patients in three groups: the supervised group: face-to-face stabilization exercises are applied, the telerehabilitation group: treatment through online meetings, and the control group: patients will do home-based exercises that prescribed by physiothrerapist. Evaluations will be made by the same physiotherapist. The researcher who will make the measurements in this study will not know which treatment program was applied to the participants. In this study, The same stabilization exercises will be applied in three different groups. Ten different stabilization exercises will be applied to the participants. Exercises will be performed for 20-30 minutes in each session, three times a week, for four weeks in total, twelve sessions. Clinical and demographic data of the 72 people participating in the study will be taken before treatment. Participants will also fill out questionnaires before and after the treatment that involve; the Oswestry Disability Index to measure(ODI) daily life activity limitations; the Visual Analogue Scale(VAS) for assessing the intensity of pain; Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia(TSK) to assess fear of movement; and the Short Form(SF-36) in order to assess self-perceived health-related quality of life. Statistical analysis is going to be used in this research through the SPSS 20.0 package program.

Today, low back pain is one of the most common health problems in the world in which create a considerable individual, social and financial burden on the society. Low back pain is classified as specific and nonspecific. While, 10 percent of the paints are suffered from specific low back pain, non-specific low back pain is occured in approximately 90 percent of the population. If low back pain persists for six weeks, it is classified as acute back pain, subacute back pain between six weeks and three months, and chronic low back pain if it lasts for more than three months.~Chronic low back pain (CLBP) is a complex problem that continues for a long time without a cause and is the most common in the musculoskeletal system, leading to disability. Individuals with CLBP have a lower quality of life than the general population. It causes individuals to decrease their activities due to pain and prepares the ground for the continuation of pain. Lack of movement caused by pain in individuals; It negatively affects the quality of life by triggering the continuation of symptoms, causing a decrease in functional levels, limitation in daily life activities, problems in family and work life. There are many physical, psychological and social factors that cause low back pain to become chronic. Age, race, occupation, obesity, smoking, alcohol consumption and stress are the most important factors that trigger the chronicity of low back pain. The effectiveness of a multidisciplinary treatment program and determination of risk factors in the management of CLBP is known. Treatment approaches include medical treatment, surgical treatment and physiotherapy applications. In physiotherapy programs, patient education, back schools, electrotherapy applications, traction, massage, superficial heat applications, corsets and exercise approaches are used. Stretching exercises, trunk flexion-extension exercises, resistantce exercises, stabilization exercises are the main exercise approaches used to cope with low back pain. In addition to exercises performed under the supervision of a physiotherapist, home exercise programs are also provided for low back pain. Stabilization exercises have various benefits on the musculoskeletal system. Stabilization exercises that aim to protect and support the spine by regenerating muscle control, applied in muscle activation losses caused by injury or degenerative changes, increase strength and flexibility. Stabilization exercise has been reported to be effective in reducing pain and improving functional disability in patients with nonspecific CLBP, improving individuals psychologically and also increasing the quality of life of patients. Stabilization exercises have been found to be effective in increasing the cross-sectional area of the lumbar multifidus muscle, which is one of the muscles needed to maintain the proper stability of the spine.~Today, in line with technological developments, the use of common information processing, sensor networks, three-dimensional (3D) computer graphics, internet and mobile phone applications in healthcare services is widespread. Telerehabilitation refers to the provision of rehabilitation services through information and communication technologies. Clinically this term; covers a range of rehabilitation and habilitation services including assessment, monitoring, prevention, response, control, training, consultation and counseling. Along with telerehabilitation, rehabilitation practices can be applied in health centers as well as homes, schools or community-based work sites. Mostly, there are studies in the literature regarding its use in musculoskeletal disorders, coronary heart disease, some types of cancer, type 2 diabetes, hypertension and physically disabled individuals. Due to the social distance and isolation, which are the effects of the covid-19, which spread in a short time in our country and all over the world, there are disruptions in individuals' continuing their treatment. Telerehabilitation allows one-to-one physiotherapist-patient meetings without the need for contact and provides flexibility to patients in terms of time. Exercise is one of the treatments that physiotherapists can give using telerehabilitation. With the applications made with telerehabilitation, individuals are provided to take an active role in their own rehabilitation and individuals can have the ability to manage themselves.

| Oswestry Disability Index(ODI) | The Oswestry Disability Index(ODI) is an extremely important tool that researchers and disability evaluators use to measure a patient's permanent functional disability. The test is considered the 'gold standard' of low back functional outcome tools. Scores between 0-5 are given for each question on the scale consisting of 10 questions. Questions are on travel, social life, sex life, sleeping, standing, sitting, walking, lifting things and personal precautions. Maximum score is 50, minimum score is 0. | Change between baseline and 4 weeks |
| Visual Analogue Scale(VAS) | The Visual Analog Scale (VAS) is a scale used to determine the intensity of pain experienced by individuals. It consists of a line approximately 10-15 cm long; the patient is asked to mark his pain level on the line between the two endpoints. The distance between 'no pain at all' and the mark then defines the subject's pain the left side means no pain with 0 points, while the right side means 10 points the worst pain ever. | Change between baseline and 4 weeks |
| Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia(TSK) | The Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobiais (TSK) is 17 items a self-reporting questionnaire based on evaluation of fear of movement, fear of physical activity, and fear avoidance. It was first developed to distinguish between non-excessive fear and phobia in patients with chronic musculoskeletal pain, specifically the fear of movement in patients with chronic low back pain then widely used for different parts of the body. The questionnaire using 4 points to assess that are based on; the model of fear-avoidance, fear of work-related activities, fear of movement, and fear of re-injury.(1 = Strongly Disagree, 4 = Strongly Agree).The total score of the scale range from 17-68, where 17 means no kinesiophobia, 68 means severe kinesiophobia. | Change between baseline and 4 weeks |
| Short Form(SF-36) | The 36-Item Short Form Survey (SF-36) is an oft-used, well-researched, self-reported measure of health. It comprises 36 questions which cover eight domains of health:1) Limitations in physical activities because of health problems 2) Limitations in social activities because of physical or emotional problems 3) Limitations in usual role activities because of physical health problems 4) Bodily pain 5) General mental health (psychological distress and well-being) 6) Limitations in usual role activities because of emotional problems 7) Vitality (energy and fatigue) 8) General health perceptions. The SF-36 is often used as a measure of a person or population's quality of life (QOL). In addition, each item is scored on a 0 to 100 range so that the lowest and highest possible scores are 0 and 100, respectively. | Change between baseline and 4 weeks |

Chronic low back pain (CLBP) is a complex problem that continues for a long time without a cause and is the most common in the musculoskeletal system, leading to disability. Individuals with CLBP have a lower quality of life than the general population. It causes individuals to decrease their activities due to pain and prepares the ground for the continuation of pain. Lack of movement caused by pain in individuals; It negatively affects the quality of life by triggering the continuation of symptoms, causing a decrease in functional levels, limitation in daily life activities, problems in family and work life. There are many physical, psychological and social factors that cause low back pain to become chronic. Age, race, occupation, obesity, smoking, alcohol consumption and stress are the most important factors that trigger the chronicity of low back pain. The effectiveness of a multidisciplinary treatment program and determination of risk factors in the management of CLBP is known. Treatment approaches include medical treatment, surgical treatment and physiotherapy applications. In physiotherapy programs, patient education, back schools, electrotherapy applications, traction, massage, superficial heat applications, corsets and exercise approaches are used. Stretching exercises, trunk flexion-extension exercises, resistantce exercises, stabilization exercises are the main exercise approaches used to cope with low back pain. In addition to exercises performed under the supervision of a physiotherapist, home exercise programs are also provided for low back pain. Stabilization exercises have various benefits on the musculoskeletal system. Stabilization exercises that aim to protect and support the spine by regenerating muscle control, applied in muscle activation losses caused by injury or degenerative changes, increase strength and flexibility. Stabilization exercise has been reported to be effective in reducing pain and improving functional disability in patients with nonspecific CLBP, improving individuals psychologically and also increasing the quality of life of patients. Stabilization exercises have been found to be effective in increasing the cross-sectional area of the lumbar multifidus muscle, which is one of the muscles needed to maintain the proper stability of the spine. Today, in line with technological developments, the use of common information processing, sensor networks, three-dimensional (3D) computer graphics, internet and mobile phone applications in healthcare services is widespread. Telerehabilitation refers to the provision of rehabilitation services through information and communication technologies. Clinically this term; covers a range of rehabilitation and habilitation services including assessment, monitoring, prevention, response, control, training, consultation and counseling. Along with telerehabilitation, rehabilitation practices can be applied in health centers as well as homes, schools or community-based work sites. Mostly, there are studies in the literature regarding its use in musculoskeletal disorders, coronary heart disease, some types of cancer, type 2 diabetes, hypertension and physically disabled individuals. Due to the social distance and isolation, which are the effects of the covid-19, which spread in a short time in our country and all over the world, there are disruptions in individuals' continuing their treatment. Telerehabilitation allows one-to-one physiotherapist-patient meetings without the need for contact and provides flexibility to patients in terms of time. Exercise is one of the treatments that physiotherapists can give using telerehabilitation. With the applications made with telerehabilitation, individuals are provided to take an active role in their own rehabilitation and individuals can have the ability to manage themselves.

Primary Outcome Measures
| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Oswestry Disability Index(ODI) | The Oswestry Disability Index(ODI) is an extremely important tool that researchers and disability evaluators use to measure a patient's permanent functional disability. The test is considered the 'gold standard' of low back functional outcome tools. Scores between 0-5 are given for each question on the scale consisting of 10 questions. Questions are on travel, social life, sex life, sleeping, standing, sitting, walking, lifting things and personal precautions. Maximum score is 50, minimum score is 0. | Change between baseline and 4 weeks |
| Visual Analogue Scale(VAS) | The Visual Analog Scale (VAS) is a scale used to determine the intensity of pain experienced by individuals. It consists of a line approximately 10-15 cm long; the patient is asked to mark his pain level on the line between the two endpoints. The distance between 'no pain at all' and the mark then defines the subject's pain the left side means no pain with 0 points, while the right side means 10 points the worst pain ever. | Change between baseline and 4 weeks |
| Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia(TSK) | The Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobiais (TSK) is 17 items a self-reporting questionnaire based on evaluation of fear of movement, fear of physical activity, and fear avoidance. It was first developed to distinguish between non-excessive fear and phobia in patients with chronic musculoskeletal pain, specifically the fear of movement in patients with chronic low back pain then widely used for different parts of the body. The questionnaire using 4 points to assess that are based on; the model of fear-avoidance, fear of work-related activities, fear of movement, and fear of re-injury.(1 = Strongly Disagree, 4 = Strongly Agree).The total score of the scale range from 17-68, where 17 means no kinesiophobia, 68 means severe kinesiophobia. | Change between baseline and 4 weeks |
| Short Form(SF-36) | The 36-Item Short Form Survey (SF-36) is an oft-used, well-researched, self-reported measure of health. It comprises 36 questions which cover eight domains of health:1) Limitations in physical activities because of health problems 2) Limitations in social activities because of physical or emotional problems 3) Limitations in usual role activities because of physical health problems 4) Bodily pain 5) General mental health (psychological distress and well-being) 6) Limitations in usual role activities because of emotional problems 7) Vitality (energy and fatigue) 8) General health perceptions. The SF-36 is often used as a measure of a person or population's quality of life (QOL). In addition, each item is scored on a 0 to 100 range so that the lowest and highest possible scores are 0 and 100, respectively. | Change between baseline and 4 weeks |

The Study of Internet-delivered, Transdiagnostic Treatments for Anxiety and Depression
|
Anxiety and depression are common psychiatric disorders, resulting in suffering and impaired functioning for the individual. Today, most psychological treatments are disorder specific, even tough comorbidity between depression and anxiety and different anxiety disorders is rule rather than exception. Transdiagnostic treatments target the common features between depression and anxiety disorders and has shown to be as effective as disorder specific treatments in reducing symptoms of the disorders. Unified protocol and Affect phobia treatment are two types of transdiagnostic treatments that, to our knowledge, never been compared in research before. Internet-administered treatment presents a promising way to increase availability of psychotherapeutic interventions such as transdiagnostic treatments. However, questions regarding the optimal treatment length and level of support remain unanswered. The aim of this study is to examine two internet-administered transdiagnostic treatments and their effect on anxiety and depression, and to investigate the impact of treatment length and access to a moderated forum.~The study will investigate three factors: type of transdiagnostic treatment, length of treatment and whether patients have access to a moderated forum or not. 2400 participants with anxiety and/or depression will be randomly assigned to one of 12 subgroups and subsequently offered treatment based on differing combinations of the previously mentioned factors (200 participants/arm). The treatment conditions are internet-administered cognitive, behavioral treatment (CBT) Unified protocol and the psychodynamic Affect phobia treatment as well as a waitlist control group. Participants will also be randomized to either 8 or 16 weeks of treatment and access to a moderated forum or not.~Primary outcome measures will be the Patient Health Questionnaire, the Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-item scale and the Brief Quality of Life scale. Negative effects of treatment will also be assessed. In addition to pre- and post-treatment measurements, the study includes one mid-treatment and three follow-up assessments (6, 12 and 24 months).

The study will investigate three factors: type of transdiagnostic treatment, length of treatment and whether patients have access to a moderated forum or not. 2400 participants with anxiety and/or depression will be randomly assigned to one of 12 subgroups and subsequently offered treatment based on differing combinations of the previously mentioned factors (200 participants/arm). The treatment conditions are internet-administered cognitive, behavioral treatment (CBT) Unified protocol and the psychodynamic Affect phobia treatment as well as a waitlist control group. Participants will also be randomized to either 8 or 16 weeks of treatment and access to a moderated forum or not. Primary outcome measures will be the Patient Health Questionnaire, the Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-item scale and the Brief Quality of Life scale. Negative effects of treatment will also be assessed. In addition to pre- and post-treatment measurements, the study includes one mid-treatment and three follow-up assessments (6, 12 and 24 months).

Personalised Pharmacological Approach to the Tapering of Corticosteroid Doses in Systemic Lupus Patients Treated With Prednisone
|
This research study is a multicentre prospective pharmacokinetic study. The clinical and biological data will be collected in the framework of a prospective study. The drug to be evaluated is a glucocorticoid routinely used to treat Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patient. Initial dose of prednisone must be oral and at least 0.5mg/Kg/day, but the precise dosage and the tapering regimen will be determined according to the clinical judgment of the investigator. The duration of the research period for each patient will be 3 months. Three visits (which are all usual care visits) will be needed within the 3 months of the study for collecting data and/or blood sampling
|
Until now, glucocorticoids always play a leading role in the lupus treatment, and the lupus's prognosis has been greatly improved by the treatment of serious flare-ups with a combination of high-dose corticosteroids and immunosuppressants, notably mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) together with hydroxychloroquine (Plaquenil), survival at 10 years being 70 to 90%. However, corticosteroid treatment is also a major cause of morbidity and mortality, and with 60 years of experience, consensus about appropriate dosages, route of administration and tapering regimes has not been reached. In addition, there is a large variability in clinical response to corticosteroid therapy which may be attributed to heterogeneity of SLE, drugs interaction or to environmental and genetic factors, especially to polymorphism of the MDR (multi-drug resistance) -1 and NR3C1 (glucocorticoid nuclear receptor subfamily 3, group C, member 1). There are no previous studies investigating the role of MDR-1 and NR3C1 genes polymorphisms in the response to corticosteroids in lupus patients Drug monitoring of immunosuppressive drugs has been largely explored in renal transplantation and in a lesser extend in SLE (especially for mycophenolic acid). Relationship between prednisolone PK and clinical efficacy/toxicity have been also shown previously especially in renal transplant population. In patients with SLE, only two small series (8 children, 25 adults) have explored this relationship, and suggested that SLE activity and corticosteroid toxicity might be related to prednisolone AUC. Thus, limited data suggest that prednisone monitoring may optimize treatment efficacy and minimize adverse events.~The DECOR study will aim :~to search for relationship between prednisolone PK and SLE disease activity in a large series of patients in order to improve the rational of prednisone doses in lupus patients~to identify pharmacogenetic factors influencing the response to steroid in order to identify patients sharing a high probability of being responders or resistant to corticosteroids.~This approach could be applied to all inflammatory diseases requiring prolonged corticosteroid treatment, and thus, be a major progress in the use of this old treatment.

Personalised Pharmacological Approach to the Tapering of Corticosteroid Doses in Systemic Lupus Patients Treated With Prednisone
Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
This research study is a multicentre prospective pharmacokinetic study. The clinical and biological data will be collected in the framework of a prospective study. The drug to be evaluated is a glucocorticoid routinely used to treat Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patient. Initial dose of prednisone must be oral and at least 0.5mg/Kg/day, but the precise dosage and the tapering regimen will be determined according to the clinical judgment of the investigator. The duration of the research period for each patient will be 3 months. Three visits (which are all usual care visits) will be needed within the 3 months of the study for collecting data and/or blood sampling
Detailed Description
-----------------
Until now, glucocorticoids always play a leading role in the lupus treatment, and the lupus's prognosis has been greatly improved by the treatment of serious flare-ups with a combination of high-dose corticosteroids and immunosuppressants, notably mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) together with hydroxychloroquine (Plaquenil), survival at 10 years being 70 to 90%. However, corticosteroid treatment is also a major cause of morbidity and mortality, and with 60 years of experience, consensus about appropriate dosages, route of administration and tapering regimes has not been reached. In addition, there is a large variability in clinical response to corticosteroid therapy which may be attributed to heterogeneity of SLE, drugs interaction or to environmental and genetic factors, especially to polymorphism of the MDR (multi-drug resistance) -1 and NR3C1 (glucocorticoid nuclear receptor subfamily 3, group C, member 1). There are no previous studies investigating the role of MDR-1 and NR3C1 genes polymorphisms in the response to corticosteroids in lupus patients Drug monitoring of immunosuppressive drugs has been largely explored in renal transplantation and in a lesser extend in SLE (especially for mycophenolic acid). Relationship between prednisolone PK and clinical efficacy/toxicity have been also shown previously especially in renal transplant population. In patients with SLE, only two small series (8 children, 25 adults) have explored this relationship, and suggested that SLE activity and corticosteroid toxicity might be related to prednisolone AUC. Thus, limited data suggest that prednisone monitoring may optimize treatment efficacy and minimize adverse events. The DECOR study will aim : to search for relationship between prednisolone PK and SLE disease activity in a large series of patients in order to improve the rational of prednisone doses in lupus patients to identify pharmacogenetic factors influencing the response to steroid in order to identify patients sharing a high probability of being responders or resistant to corticosteroids. This approach could be applied to all inflammatory diseases requiring prolonged corticosteroid treatment, and thus, be a major progress in the use of this old treatment.

A Real-world Study for Patients With Multiple Pulmonary Ground-glass Nodules
|
The purpose of this study is to actively monitor patients with multiple pulmonary Ground-glass Nodules (GGNs), in order to provide evidence for multiple GGNs treatment.
|
Multiple pulmonary GGNs are very commonly identified particularly as increasing numbers of CT scans are performed as part of routine lung cancer screening. At the same time, the ideal solution for these cases continues to be debated. This aim of this study is to learn more about the effects of multiple factors on outcome of multiple pulmonary GGNs, such as patients' clinical characteristics, CT features and different pathological types. Furthermore, the optimal timing of surgery and the effect of different surgical choices on the prognosis of patients with multiple GGNs will be investigated.

A Trial to Evaluate the Safety, Reactogenicity, and Immunogenicity of MVA-BN Yellow Fever Vaccine With and Without Montanide ISA-720 Adjuvant in 18-45 Year Old Healthy Volunteers
|
This study is a multi-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled, Phase I study to evaluate the safety, reactogenicity, tolerability, and immunogenicity of Modified Vaccinia Ankara-Bavarian Nordic-Yellow Fever (MVA-BN-YF) in Flavivirus-naive healthy male and non-pregnant female adult subjects. There are six dose groups in this study. Subjects who have never received a licensed or investigational smallpox vaccine will be randomized to Groups 1-5 and vaccine administration and follow-up will be conducted in a double-blinded fashion. Subjects who have previously received two, 1 x 10^8 TCID50 doses of Modified Vaccinia Ankara-Bavarian Nordic (MVA-BN) between 19 and 45 days apart by s ubcutaneous (SC) or intramuscular (IM) routes will be enrolled in Group 6 and will be dosed open-label. Since this is a first in human, phase I study, a sentinel cohort will be utilized. The first two subjects (1st sentinel group) one at each clinical site will be randomized to Group 2 or 3 and vaccinated with MVA-BN-YF with or without Montanide ISA 720 adjuvant (ISA 720). Subjects and study personnel will be blinded as to whether ISA 720 was administered. The primary objectives are the: 1) assessment of the safety, tolerability, and reactogenicity of MVA-BN-YF vaccine administered with or without ISA 720; 2) comparison of the safety, tolerability, and reactogenicity of MVA-BN-YF vaccine administered with or without ISA 720 with Yellow Fever Vaccine (YF-VAX) and MVA-BN.

Since this is a first in human, phase I study, a sentinel cohort will be utilized. The first two subjects (1st sentinel group) one at each clinical site will be randomized to Group 2 or 3 and vaccinated with MVA-BN-YF with or without Montanide ISA 720 adjuvant (ISA 720). Subjects and study personnel will be blinded as to whether ISA 720 was administered. Subjects will be monitored for safety for one day, and if no pre-defined halting rule is met then two additional subjects (2nd sentinel group) one at each clinical site will be assigned to the group the previous subject was not assigned to. These subjects will be vaccinated and monitored as above. A total of 4 sentinel subjects will be vaccinated. The primary objectives are the: 1) assessment of the safety, tolerability, and reactogenicity of MVA-BN-YF vaccine administered with or without ISA 720; 2) comparison of the safety, tolerability, and reactogenicity of MVA-BN-YF vaccine administered with or without ISA 720 with Yellow Fever Vaccine (YF-VAX) and MVA-BN. The secondary objectives are the: 1) assessment of the immunogenicity against the MVA-BN backbone and Yellow Fever Virus (YF) antigen insert of MVA-BN-YF with and without ISA 720 as assessed by kinetics of the immune responses, seroconversion rates, and peak Geometric Mean Titer (GMT); 2) assessment of the impact of previous MVA-BN vaccination on peak immune responses to YF antigen in MVA-BN-YF; 3) comparison of the peak immunogenicity against YF antigen of 1 or 2 doses of MVA-BN-YF with or without ISA 720 with YF-VAX; 4) comparison of the peak immunogenicity against the MVA-BN backbone of 1 or 2 doses of MVA-BN-YF with or without ISA 720 with MVA-BN; 5) assessment of durability of immune response to YF antigen and MVA-BN at 6 months after 2nd vaccination or placebo administration.

A Trial to Evaluate the Safety, Reactogenicity, and Immunogenicity of MVA-BN Yellow Fever Vaccine With and Without Montanide ISA-720 Adjuvant in 18-45 Year Old Healthy Volunteers
Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
This study is a multi-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled, Phase I study to evaluate the safety, reactogenicity, tolerability, and immunogenicity of Modified Vaccinia Ankara-Bavarian Nordic-Yellow Fever (MVA-BN-YF) in Flavivirus-naive healthy male and non-pregnant female adult subjects. There are six dose groups in this study. Subjects who have never received a licensed or investigational smallpox vaccine will be randomized to Groups 1-5 and vaccine administration and follow-up will be conducted in a double-blinded fashion. Subjects who have previously received two, 1 x 10^8 TCID50 doses of Modified Vaccinia Ankara-Bavarian Nordic (MVA-BN) between 19 and 45 days apart by s ubcutaneous (SC) or intramuscular (IM) routes will be enrolled in Group 6 and will be dosed open-label. Since this is a first in human, phase I study, a sentinel cohort will be utilized. The first two subjects (1st sentinel group) one at each clinical site will be randomized to Group 2 or 3 and vaccinated with MVA-BN-YF with or without Montanide ISA 720 adjuvant (ISA 720). Subjects and study personnel will be blinded as to whether ISA 720 was administered. The primary objectives are the: 1) assessment of the safety, tolerability, and reactogenicity of MVA-BN-YF vaccine administered with or without ISA 720; 2) comparison of the safety, tolerability, and reactogenicity of MVA-BN-YF vaccine administered with or without ISA 720 with Yellow Fever Vaccine (YF-VAX) and MVA-BN.

-----------------
This study is a multi-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled, Phase I study to evaluate the safety, reactogenicity, tolerability, and immunogenicity of Modified Vaccinia Ankara-Bavarian Nordic-Yellow Fever (MVA-BN-YF) in Flavivirus-naive healthy male and non-pregnant female adult subjects. There are six dose groups in this study. Subjects who have never received a licensed or investigational smallpox vaccine will be randomized to Groups 1-5 and vaccine administration and follow-up will be conducted in a double-blinded fashion. Subjects who have previously received two, 1 x 10^8 TCID50 doses of Modified Vaccinia Ankara-Bavarian Nordic (MVA-BN) between 19 and 45 days apart by subcutaneous (SC) or intramuscular (IM) routes will be enrolled in Group 6 and will be dosed open-label. Since this is a first in human, phase I study, a sentinel cohort will be utilized. The first two subjects (1st sentinel group) one at each clinical site will be randomized to Group 2 or 3 and vaccinated with MVA-BN-YF with or without Montanide ISA 720 adjuvant (ISA 720). Subjects and study personnel will be blinded as to whether ISA 720 was administered. Subjects will be monitored for safety for one day, and if no pre-defined halting rule is met then two additional subjects (2nd sentinel group) one at each clinical site will be assigned to the group the previous subject was not assigned to. These subjects will be vaccinated and monitored as above. A total of 4 sentinel subjects will be vaccinated. The primary objectives are the: 1) assessment of the safety, tolerability, and reactogenicity of MVA-BN-YF vaccine administered with or without ISA 720; 2) comparison of the safety, tolerability, and reactogenicity of MVA-BN-YF vaccine administered with or without ISA 720 with Yellow Fever Vaccine (YF-VAX) and MVA-BN. The secondary objectives are the: 1) assessment of the immunogenicity against the MVA-BN backbone and Yellow Fever Virus (YF) antigen insert of MVA-BN-YF with and without ISA 720 as assessed by kinetics of the immune responses, seroconversion rates, and peak Geometric Mean Titer (GMT); 2) assessment of the impact of previous MVA-BN vaccination on peak immune responses to YF antigen in MVA-BN-YF; 3) comparison of the peak immunogenicity against YF antigen of 1 or 2 doses of MVA-BN-YF with or without ISA 720 with YF-VAX; 4) comparison of the peak immunogenicity against the MVA-BN backbone of 1 or 2 doses of MVA-BN-YF with or without ISA 720 with MVA-BN; 5) assessment of durability of immune response to YF antigen and MVA-BN at 6 months after 2nd vaccination or placebo administration.

Honey Versus Povidone-iodine on Laceration Wounds
|
This study evaluates healing time in usage of honey and povidone-iodine over paraffin gauze as dressings in the treatment of acute laceration wounds. In Indonesia, especially in rural area, where most of the resources is limited and modern dressings are expensive and hard-to-find. The investigators tried to find an alternative which was easier to find and could act as a substitute of modern wound dressing.~The hypothesis of this study is honey and povidone-iodine could be a good substitute (or equal to) to paraffin gauze on acute laceration wounds.~Honey is chosen because of its versatility and already well-known to be used as a chronic wound dressing. Povidone-iodine was chosen as another alternative because it is still one of the most used substance in rural area as a wound dressing, but there is not enough study to support the usage of this substance. Paraffin gauze was chosen as a representative of modern wound dressing because it fulfilled the standard of wound dressing on acute wound, which is non-adherent and also moist.

The investigator's team consists of five members, each have their own specific tasks and divided by two groups, which are ER group (first time encounter, informed consent, and intervention) and polyclinic group (routine wound care). All of the data are primary data. Data registry were taken by the team without involving any other party. Any intervention done to the participants were also done only by the team(suturing, wound care). Appointment for routine wound care was also made by contacting the participant through their cellphone numbers which were collected when they come to the ER.~The data of each of the participant was registered on a form which was pre-made by the investigators. It recorded the identity of the patient, history taking, physical examination, and also to record more detailed information about our intervention, such as the amount of stitches and how many and what kind of resources that have been spent on the participant.~Every sample will be categorized into 3 randomized groups of intervention; honey, povidone-iodine, and paraffin gauze, which will also be categorized by location of their wound; face and neck, upper extremity, and lower extremity. Participants on each intervention group are distributed evenly using stratified block randomization. Photos of the wound will be taken before and after the wound is cleaned, and after the wound has been sutured. Every patient will be asked to attend a predetermined schedule for wound care assessment. The wound will be evaluated by photos before and after the wound is cleaned, debrided, or have its sutures removed. Parameter of evaluation will be duration of wound healing per anatomical region, infection, cleanliness of wound, odor, exudate level, pain, itch, and total cost of wound care.~Every paper consists of participants' data that were collected on colored maps based on the intervention group (red: povidone-iodine, yellow: honey, blue: paraffin). At the end of the study, three of the team's members converted the data to be analyzed using Microsoft Excel and SPSS.~The investigators prepared beforehand the Standard Operational Procedures regarding any possibilities of adverse events, such as lidocaine toxicity and honey hypersensitivity and were already approved by the hospital's committee.~The investigators determined the target of the sample size with the total sample of 36 participants, distributed evenly based on intervention groups and wounds' location using stratified block randomization

The investigator's team consists of five members, each have their own specific tasks and divided by two groups, which are ER group (first time encounter, informed consent, and intervention) and polyclinic group (routine wound care). All of the data are primary data. Data registry were taken by the team without involving any other party. Any intervention done to the participants were also done only by the team(suturing, wound care). Appointment for routine wound care was also made by contacting the participant through their cellphone numbers which were collected when they come to the ER. The data of each of the participant was registered on a form which was pre-made by the investigators. It recorded the identity of the patient, history taking, physical examination, and also to record more detailed information about our intervention, such as the amount of stitches and how many and what kind of resources that have been spent on the participant. Every sample will be categorized into 3 randomized groups of intervention; honey, povidone-iodine, and paraffin gauze, which will also be categorized by location of their wound; face and neck, upper extremity, and lower extremity. Participants on each intervention group are distributed evenly using stratified block randomization. Photos of the wound will be taken before and after the wound is cleaned, and after the wound has been sutured. Every patient will be asked to attend a predetermined schedule for wound care assessment. The wound will be evaluated by photos before and after the wound is cleaned, debrided, or have its sutures removed. Parameter of evaluation will be duration of wound healing per anatomical region, infection, cleanliness of wound, odor, exudate level, pain, itch, and total cost of wound care. Every paper consists of participants' data that were collected on colored maps based on the intervention group (red: povidone-iodine, yellow: honey, blue: paraffin). At the end of the study, three of the team's members converted the data to be analyzed using Microsoft Excel and SPSS. The investigators prepared beforehand the Standard Operational Procedures regarding any possibilities of adverse events, such as lidocaine toxicity and honey hypersensitivity and were already approved by the hospital's committee. The investigators determined the target of the sample size with the total sample of 36 participants, distributed evenly based on intervention groups and wounds' location using stratified block randomization

Personalized Kinase Inhibitor Therapy Combined With Chemotherapy in Treating Patients With Newly Diagnosed Acute Myeloid Leukemia and Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
|
This phase IB trial studies the feasibility of using a functional laboratory based study to determine how well the test can be used to select personalized kinase inhibitor therapy in combination with standard chemotherapy in treating patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). It also evaluates safety and potential efficacy. Kinase inhibitor is a type of substance that blocks an enzyme called a kinase. Human cells have many different kinase enzymes, and they help control important cell functions. Certain kinases are more active in some types of cancer cells and blocking them may help keep the cancer cells from growing. Testing samples of blood from patients with AML and ALL in the laboratory with kinase inhibitors may help determine which kinase inhibitor has more activity against cancer cells and which one should be combined with standard of care chemotherapy. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving a personalized kinase inhibitor therapy combined with standard chemotherapy may be a better treatment for AML and ALL.
|
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:~I. Determine feasibility of using an in vitro small molecule inhibitor screen to select kinase inhibitors to add to standard chemotherapy induction in AML or ALL.~SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:~I. Determine the safety and tolerability of the addition of the kinase inhibitors when added to standard chemotherapy induction.~II. Evaluate overall objective response rates at completion of induction therapy.~III. Evaluate need for re-induction at day 14 (+/- 3 days) for AML. IV. Evaluate sensitivity to kinase inhibitors using our in vitro small molecule inhibitor screen in newly diagnosed AML/ALL.~V. Determine twelve-month overall survival.~TERTIARY OBJECTIVES:~I. Perform next-generation mutational analysis in primary leukemia samples from study subjects at baseline to establish a panel of known mutations for each subject and at the time of bone marrow recovery after induction chemotherapy to measure residual disease and evaluate utility of next-generation sequencing as a method compared to flow cytometry for minimal residual disease (MRD).~II. Evaluate pharmacokinetics for each individual kinase inhibitor. III. Determine if there is a cytogenetic or other risk group that has a higher rate of treatment failure or inability to obtain results from the small molecule inhibitor screen.~OUTLINE: Patients are assigned to 1 of 2 arms.~ARM I (AML): Patients receive cytarabine intravenously (IV) continuously over 24 hours on days 1-7, and idarubicin IV over 30 minutes on days 1-3.~ARM II (ALL) CYCLE A: Patients receive cyclophosphamide IV over 3 hours twice daily (BID) on days 1-3, vincristine sulfate IV on days 4 and 11, doxorubicin hydrochloride IV on day 4, dexamethasone PO on days 1-4 and 11-14, and rituximab IV on day 1 and 11 (day 11 only of course 1). Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 4 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.~ARM II (ALL) CYCLE B: Patients receive cytarabine IV over 2 hours BID on days 2-3, methotrexate IV over 2-22 hours on day 1, methylprednisolone sodium succinate IV BID on days 1-3, leucovorin calcium IV every 6 hours until methotrexate level is < 0.05 uM and rituximab IV on days 1 and 8. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 4 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.~In all arms, based on the results of the kinase inhibitor assay, patients receive either sorafenib tosylate PO BID, sunitinib malate PO daily, dasatinib PO daily, ponatinib hydrochloride PO daily, ruxolitinib phosphate or idelalisib PO BID on days 8-28 in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.~After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 4-6 weeks, and then for a minimum of 1 year.

Personalized Kinase Inhibitor Therapy Combined With Chemotherapy in Treating Patients With Newly Diagnosed Acute Myeloid Leukemia and Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
This phase IB trial studies the feasibility of using a functional laboratory based study to determine how well the test can be used to select personalized kinase inhibitor therapy in combination with standard chemotherapy in treating patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). It also evaluates safety and potential efficacy. Kinase inhibitor is a type of substance that blocks an enzyme called a kinase. Human cells have many different kinase enzymes, and they help control important cell functions. Certain kinases are more active in some types of cancer cells and blocking them may help keep the cancer cells from growing. Testing samples of blood from patients with AML and ALL in the laboratory with kinase inhibitors may help determine which kinase inhibitor has more activity against cancer cells and which one should be combined with standard of care chemotherapy. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving a personalized kinase inhibitor therapy combined with standard chemotherapy may be a better treatment for AML and ALL.
Detailed Description
-----------------
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. Determine feasibility of using an in vitro small molecule inhibitor screen to select kinase inhibitors to add to standard chemotherapy induction in AML or ALL. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the safety and tolerability of the addition of the kinase inhibitors when added to standard chemotherapy induction. II. Evaluate overall objective response rates at completion of induction therapy. III. Evaluate need for re-induction at day 14 (+/- 3 days) for AML. IV. Evaluate sensitivity to kinase inhibitors using our in vitro small molecule inhibitor screen in newly diagnosed AML/ALL. V. Determine twelve-month overall survival. TERTIARY OBJECTIVES: I. Perform next-generation mutational analysis in primary leukemia samples from study subjects at baseline to establish a panel of known mutations for each subject and at the time of bone marrow recovery after induction chemotherapy to measure residual disease and evaluate utility of next-generation sequencing as a method compared to flow cytometry for minimal residual disease (MRD). II. Evaluate pharmacokinetics for each individual kinase inhibitor. III. Determine if there is a cytogenetic or other risk group that has a higher rate of treatment failure or inability to obtain results from the small molecule inhibitor screen. OUTLINE: Patients are assigned to 1 of 2 arms. ARM I (AML): Patients receive cytarabine intravenously (IV) continuously over 24 hours on days 1-7, and idarubicin IV over 30 minutes on days 1-3. ARM II (ALL) CYCLE A: Patients receive cyclophosphamide IV over 3 hours twice daily (BID) on days 1-3, vincristine sulfate IV on days 4 and 11, doxorubicin hydrochloride IV on day 4, dexamethasone PO on days 1-4 and 11-14, and rituximab IV on day 1 and 11 (day 11 only of course 1). Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 4 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. ARM II (ALL) CYCLE B: Patients receive cytarabine IV over 2 hours BID on days 2-3, methotrexate IV over 2-22 hours on day 1, methylprednisolone sodium succinate IV BID on days 1-3, leucovorin calcium IV every 6 hours until methotrexate level is < 0.05 uM and rituximab IV on days 1 and 8. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 4 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. In all arms, based on the results of the kinase inhibitor assay, patients receive either sorafenib tosylate PO BID, sunitinib malate PO daily, dasatinib PO daily, ponatinib hydrochloride PO daily, ruxolitinib phosphate or idelalisib PO BID on days 8-28 in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 4-6 weeks, and then for a minimum of 1 year.

Cadiotocography Combined With ST-analysis Versus Cardiotocography Combined With Scalp-pH

Hypothesis:~STAN monitoring will reduce the number of interventions because of suspected fetal asphyxia and reduce the number of newborns with metabolic acidosis.~Primary endpoint:~1) Frequency of metabolic acidosis in the two groups, defined by pH in umbilical cord artery < 7.05 and standard base excess <-10.~Secondary endpoints:~Number of intervention (VE and caesarean section) in the two groups~Number of pH measurements in the two groups~Number of neonates admitted to the neonatal department because of suspected asphyxia in the two groups~The aim of fetal surveillance is to identify those fetuses at risk for developing damage in newborn to term or long term damage caused by lack of oxygen during birth process. Approximately 1/10 of all cases of paralysis due to brain damage (cerebral palsy) is believed to be caused by lack of oxygen during birth. These can be avoided if the investigators intervene actively in the birth before damage occurs.~CardioTocoGraphy (CTG = detection of fetal heart rate pattern and maternal uterine contractions via electrodes on the maternal abdomen and fetal scalp) is a widely used method of fetal surveillance. However, it can be difficult to interpret a CTG, and uncertainty in CTG interpretation may therefore lead to increase in the number of deliveries with vacuum suction and caesarean section. Interpretation of CTG can be improved by analyzing the acidity of a blood sample taken from the skin of the fetal scalp. Such a scalp pH analysis shows indirectly the fetus gets enough oxygen. Scalp pH measurement requires expertise and requires repeated measurements if the abnormal heart rate pattern persists. This method is the normal routine at the maternity ward at Hvidovre Hospital / Roskilde County Hospital.~The problem seems to be partially alleviated by using a newly developed method for fetal surveillance called STAN (ST analysis). By STAN continuously recorded both CTG and fetal ECG (electrocardiography = recording of the electrical heart activity). Simultaneously analyzes a portion of the fetal ECG, namely ST-part because hypoxia leads to changes in it. The technique is easy to use, since it only requires one electrode on the fetal scalp that is placed in the same way as in ordinary CTG registration.
|
The value of STAN (ST analysis) was assessed in 2 randomized trials and shows: 1) A reduction in the incidence of severe hypoxia in fetuses during labor and 2) A reduction in frequency of redemption with suction and caesarean section due to lack of oxygen during the birth process.~Within the last year however, there is substantial new information regarding. STAN. The Swedish Social Board has published a newsletter (17) which describes a possible risk of birth of asphyxiated children, some died and others have cerebral palsy. A new Finnish study (18) suggests that there may be an increased risk of (moderate) acidosis after using STAN.~The above has led to considerable debate, not just in Sweden but also throughout Europe. This has led to the Swedish, Danish (Newsletter 1, Annex 1b) and the common Nordic reference group for STAN orally has announced new clinical guidelines for STAN application. A recently held workshop in Utrecht, Holland will generate joint European guideline, these will be sought published. Against this background it has been necessary to develop new guidelines for the complement of scalp pH in the STAN arm of this project (Annex 1a)~Common to the above studies is that there is consistently applied scalp pH before STAN monitoring begins. It is therefore important to elucidate whether, through the use of STAN monitoring is needed (more than 1) FBS - and if so to what extent FBS is required.~STAN method currently winning widespread in Denmark and internationally (FDA has just approved), notwithstanding that it is not scientifically proven that fetal monitoring with STAN is better than the current monitoring method with scalp pH measurement. It is therefore important to get this resolved in a randomized study in the relative expensive STAN apparatus introduced in several places in Denmark.~This study will provide an opportunity to highlight these issues and can prepare on our way to use STAN to prevent or significantly reduce these risks and thus justify continued STAN use or the continued spread of STAN should not by advised.~If STAN by our method proves to be comparable with clean scalps pH measurement as an adjunct to CTG, it will be a significant advance in fetal monitoring technology, taking thus will have a primarily non-invasive, safe and continuous method cause less inconvenience to both mother and child.~The study was approved by the Ethical nominee directors.~The study will include all women > 18 years in labour with a fetus in the cephalic presentation with a gestational age of more than 36 weeks + 0, where there is the monitoring with CTG.~Women who develop CTG changes that are interpreted as abnormal (according to STAN (FIGO)-guidelines and the scalp pH is normal, could be included in the study. Women will be randomised by telephone(electronic)to surveillance with eighter STAN monitoring or with CTG and scalp pH. In the latter group STAN results will be blinded (hidden) for later analysis.~There are estimated to be 1200 women in the study and the study is expected to run for 2-3 years, preceded by a pilotproject.~During the pilot project we will follow the department's usual procedures for monitoring, but to CTG using the STAN device with blinded/concealed ST analysis. There is expected to be 100 patients in the pilotproject. The aim is to investigate whether the calculations in the survey stick and simultaneously train staff at the maternity ward in STAN equipment and procedures and make them familiar with the work.~The advantage in conducting the study at the maternity ward at Hvidovre hospital is that it is the largest birthplace in Denmark with nearly 6,000 births annually, with perhaps the highest use of scalp pH measurements during labor. In addition, nearly 3,000 births annually at Roskilde County Hospital, a total of 9,500 births. In addition, department and project managers areexperienced in scientific studies on fetal monitoring.~Project participants have on their own initiative, initiated this project and has no financial interest in the instrument companies that produce the used equipment/ appliances/ monitors.~The project has been allocated 2.5 million DKr in funding for the project from Elsass Foundation, a private foundation with no financial interest in the project equipment/ appliances/ monitors.

Interpretation of CTG can be improved by analyzing the acidity of a blood sample taken from the skin of the fetal scalp. Such a scalp pH analysis shows indirectly the fetus gets enough oxygen. Scalp pH measurement requires expertise and requires repeated measurements if the abnormal heart rate pattern persists. This method is the normal routine at the maternity ward at Hvidovre Hospital / Roskilde County Hospital. The problem seems to be partially alleviated by using a newly developed method for fetal surveillance called STAN (ST analysis). By STAN continuously recorded both CTG and fetal ECG (electrocardiography = recording of the electrical heart activity). Simultaneously analyzes a portion of the fetal ECG, namely ST-part because hypoxia leads to changes in it. The technique is easy to use, since it only requires one electrode on the fetal scalp that is placed in the same way as in ordinary CTG registration.
Detailed Description
-----------------
The value of STAN (ST analysis) was assessed in 2 randomized trials and shows: 1) A reduction in the incidence of severe hypoxia in fetuses during labor and 2) A reduction in frequency of redemption with suction and caesarean section due to lack of oxygen during the birth process. Within the last year however, there is substantial new information regarding. STAN. The Swedish Social Board has published a newsletter (17) which describes a possible risk of birth of asphyxiated children, some died and others have cerebral palsy. A new Finnish study (18) suggests that there may be an increased risk of (moderate) acidosis after using STAN. The above has led to considerable debate, not just in Sweden but also throughout Europe. This has led to the Swedish, Danish (Newsletter 1, Annex 1b) and the common Nordic reference group for STAN orally has announced new clinical guidelines for STAN application. A recently held workshop in Utrecht, Holland will generate joint European guideline, these will be sought published. Against this background it has been necessary to develop new guidelines for the complement of scalp pH in the STAN arm of this project (Annex 1a) Common to the above studies is that there is consistently applied scalp pH before STAN monitoring begins. It is therefore important to elucidate whether, through the use of STAN monitoring is needed (more than 1) FBS - and if so to what extent FBS is required. STAN method currently winning widespread in Denmark and internationally (FDA has just approved), notwithstanding that it is not scientifically proven that fetal monitoring with STAN is better than the current monitoring method with scalp pH measurement. It is therefore important to get this resolved in a randomized study in the relative expensive STAN apparatus introduced in several places in Denmark. This study will provide an opportunity to highlight these issues and can prepare on our way to use STAN to prevent or significantly reduce these risks and thus justify continued STAN use or the continued spread of STAN should not by advised. If STAN by our method proves to be comparable with clean scalps pH measurement as an adjunct to CTG, it will be a significant advance in fetal monitoring technology, taking thus will have a primarily non-invasive, safe and continuous method cause less inconvenience to both mother and child. The study was approved by the Ethical nominee directors. The study will include all women > 18 years in labour with a fetus in the cephalic presentation with a gestational age of more than 36 weeks + 0, where there is the monitoring with CTG. Women who develop CTG changes that are interpreted as abnormal (according to STAN (FIGO)-guidelines and the scalp pH is normal, could be included in the study. Women will be randomised by telephone(electronic)to surveillance with eighter STAN monitoring or with CTG and scalp pH. In the latter group STAN results will be blinded (hidden) for later analysis. There are estimated to be 1200 women in the study and the study is expected to run for 2-3 years, preceded by a pilotproject. During the pilot project we will follow the department's usual procedures for monitoring, but to CTG using the STAN device with blinded/concealed ST analysis. There is expected to be 100 patients in the pilotproject. The aim is to investigate whether the calculations in the survey stick and simultaneously train staff at the maternity ward in STAN equipment and procedures and make them familiar with the work. The advantage in conducting the study at the maternity ward at Hvidovre hospital is that it is the largest birthplace in Denmark with nearly 6,000 births annually, with perhaps the highest use of scalp pH measurements during labor. In addition, nearly 3,000 births annually at Roskilde County Hospital, a total of 9,500 births. In addition, department and project managers areexperienced in scientific studies on fetal monitoring. Project participants have on their own initiative, initiated this project and has no financial interest in the instrument companies that produce the used equipment/ appliances/ monitors. The project has been allocated 2.5 million DKr in funding for the project from Elsass Foundation, a private foundation with no financial interest in the project equipment/ appliances/ monitors.

Does Midazolam Affect Postoperative Pain?
|
To investigate whether midazolam has any effect on postoperative pain in outpatient surgery, the investigators will assess the impact of different midazolam doses on pain scores 24h, 7 days and 3 months after open inguinal hernia repair.~The investigators hypothesize that patients being administered higher midazolam doses will refer more pain.
|
Systemic midazolam prescribed perioperatively might have impact on pain, with studies suggesting antinociceptive and hyperalgesic effects. Anxiety might be a confounder in this association. In order to investigate the effect of midazolam on postoperative pain, a prospective cohort study will be conducted in four Portuguese ambulatory surgery units. A convenience sample with consecutive design will include patients admitted for open inguinal hernia repair. After anxiety and pain evaluation, a tailored dose of midazolam will be administered as premedication according to the anesthetist's best judgement within each unit's protocol (routine care; this dose may be null). Subsequent anesthesia and analgesia will be standardized. Postoperative pain will be blindly assessed by telephone interviews at 24h, 7 days, and 3 months. Statistical analysis will be performed separately for each gender, centre and type of anesthesia, adjusting for preoperative anxiety and other confounding variables with multivariate analysis.~The investigators intend to clarify the relation between anxiety, preoperative midazolam and postoperative pain.

Open-Label Pilot Study of OPTUNE® With High Density Transducer Arrays for the Treatment of Recurrent GBM
|
This is a prospective, open-label, single arm, historical control pilot study aimed to test the effectiveness and safety of TTFields delivered through high intensity arrays in recurrent glioblastoma.~The Optune® System is an investigational , portable, battery operated medical device in this study delivering 200 kHz TTFields to the brain using high intensity transducer arrays for the treatment of patients at the age of 18 years or older with first or second recurrence of Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM)
|
Optune® is a medical device that has been approved for the treatment of recurrent and newly diagnosed glioblastoma (GBM) by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the United States. Optune® has obtained a CE mark in Europe for recurrent and newly diagnosed GBM.~TTFields intensity has been shown to be positively correlated with patient outcome.

Open-Label Pilot Study of OPTUNE® With High Density Transducer Arrays for the Treatment of Recurrent GBM
Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
This is a prospective, open-label, single arm, historical control pilot study aimed to test the effectiveness and safety of TTFields delivered through high intensity arrays in recurrent glioblastoma. The Optune® System is an investigational , portable, battery operated medical device in this study delivering 200 kHz TTFields to the brain using high intensity transducer arrays for the treatment of patients at the age of 18 years or older with first or second recurrence of Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM)
Detailed Description
-----------------
Optune® is a medical device that has been approved for the treatment of recurrent and newly diagnosed glioblastoma (GBM) by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the United States. Optune® has obtained a CE mark in Europe for recurrent and newly diagnosed GBM. TTFields intensity has been shown to be positively correlated with patient outcome. The new transducer array design is expected to reduce skin heating and thus enable delivery of higher TTFields intensities while keeping the safety profile of the treatment unchanged. The purpose of the study is to test if delivering TTFields using high intensity transducer arrays for recurrent GBM significantly improves the clinical outcome of patients, compared to using the standard transducer arrays. The study will enroll 25 patients. All patients included in this clinical investigation are patients with histologically confirmed diagnosis of GBM with first or second radiological disease progression per RANO criteria. In addition, all patients must meet all eligibility criteria. Baseline assessments will be performed to confirm patient eligibility in the study. Enrolled patients will be treated continuously with the device until disease progression per RANO criteria or 18 months (the earlier of the two) unless any of the treatment discontinuation conditions described under criteria for patient withdrawal or termination are met. Concurrent brain directed antitumor therapy or procedures beyond TTFields is prohibited. TTFields treatment will start within 28 days following signing the informed consent. After the initial visit, subjects will continue treatment at home, while pursuing normal daily routines. Subjects are required to use the device for at least 18 hours a day. Short breaks in treatment for personal hygiene and other personal needs is allowed. Total usage time will be recorded and provided to the sponsor. Subjects will be required to return to the clinic every 4 weeks and every 8 weeks after first 12 visits, until disease progression. At each study visit an examination by a physician and a routine laboratory examination will be performed. A contrast enhanced MRI of the head will be performed at baseline and every 4 weeks for the first 24 weeks and then at least every 12 weeks, until disease progression. A post-treatment termination visit will be performed approximately 30 days after discontinuation of TTfields treatment or disease progression (the latter of the two). Following disease progression, subjects will be contacted once per month by telephone to answer basic questions about their health status. Pathological analysis of GBM tumor samples, which may be obtained prior and during the study period, will be performed based on subjects' consent to have an experimental pathological examination of their tumors.

fMRI and Central Sensitization in Chronic Knee Osteoarthritis. A Pre and Post TKR Study
|
Painful osteoarthritis (OA) is the 4th largest cause of disability in the UK. Preoperative temporal summation, a measure of central pain facilitation, has been shown to predict postoperative pain after total knee replacement surgery (TKR). The assessment of the brain's response to noxious stimuli using non-invasive functional MRI (fMRI) may be key in identifying imaging biomarkers within the brain that map central sensitization changes seen in OA. fMRI may help explain why up to 20% of patients undergoing TKR surgery develop persistent post-operative pain. To test these concepts the study aims to functionally characterise the brain activity related to temporal summation of pain in healthy individuals and OA patients using a novel fMRI cuff algometer. Assessment of outcomes in terms of pain and function will be performed 6 months post TKR surgery

Early Palliative Care in Pancreatic Cancer - a Quasi-experimental Study
|
The aim of the proposed study is to understand the palliative care needs of patients with pancreatic cancer, to investigate whether early palliative care can improve patient outcomes and reduce use of health care services, and to understand the psychological health of carers and their satisfaction with care.~A quasi-experimental design is used, introducing palliative care for patients with pancreatic cancer within three weeks from diagnosis. The patients are recruited in Dept. of Surgery, Hospital of North Zealand, which covers the northern catchment area of the Capital Region of Copenhagen, Denmark. Patients are seen by the palliative care team on home-visits every four weeks throughout their trajectory, and quality of life is evaluated using the following quality of life questionnaires (QLQs): European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire for Cancer Patients receiving palliative care (EORTC QLQ-C15-PAL), European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire for Pancreatic Cancer Patients (EORTC QLQ-PAN26), and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). For carers, mental health is evaluated using HADS and satisfaction with care is evaluated using the Family Caregivers' Satisfaction With Palliative Care in Advanced Cancer Questionnaire (FAMCARE-2).~The primary outcome is health care service use (acute hospital admissions, days in hospital). Secondary outcomes are survival and place of death. Data are compared with historical control patients treated in the same hospital before introduction of early palliative care. These outcomes are readily available from patient records and are expected to carry a very low risk of bias.~Palliative care needs at referral in the study group will be compared with palliative care needs in the subgroup of historical control patients referred to palliative care on-demand.~For outcomes where unbiased historical control data are not available a prospective observational approach is used. These include symptom burden, weight, psychological health and satisfaction with care.~The minimum sample size needed to show a clinically significant decrease in acute hospital admissions is 70, 35 participating in the prospective study and 35 historical control patients. The study will include 40-50 patients and their carers from September 2019 to September 2020.
|
Study design~All patients with symptoms compatible with pancreatic cancer living in the northern catchment area of the Capital Region of Copenhagen, Denmark, are referred to Dept. of Surgery, Hospital of North Zealand for further investigations. Cases diagnosed with pancreatic cancer are discussed at a regional Multi-Disciplinary-Team (MDT) conference and either referred for surgery or chemotherapy or receive best supportive care in Dept. of Surgery. The Palliative Care Unit at Hospital of North Zealand covers the same geographical area with 310,000 inhabitants.~Patients referred to Dept. of Surgery and diagnosed with pancreatic cancer are offered participation in this study. All participants will receive home-visits from the palliative care team every four weeks, starting within three weeks from diagnosis and until end-of-life or cure without residual palliative needs.~The study design chosen is a quasi-experimental design using historical control patients for the primary outcome: use of health care services (acute hospital admissions, days in hospital) and the secondary outcomes: survival and place of death. The historical control patients were diagnosed before the introduction of early palliative care. The outcomes are readily available from patient records and are expected to carry a very low risk of registration bias. Palliative care needs at referral in the study group will be compared with palliative care needs in the subgroup of historical control patients referred to palliative care on-demand.~Demographic data will be collected for participants and historical controls to evaluate if any selection bias or other systematic differences exist between the groups.~For outcomes where unbiased historical control data are not available a prospective observational approach is used. These include symptom burden, psychological health and satisfaction with care.~The study will include 40-50 patients and their carers from September 2019 to September 2020.~Recruitment and informed consent~Recruitment to this project will take place in Dept. of Surgery, Hospital of North Zealand to which all patients suspected of having pancreatic cancer and living in the northern catchment area of the Capital Region of Copenhagen will be referred for further investigations. The patients will be informed about their diagnosis by the responsible surgeon in the outpatient clinic in an undisturbed environment. The patients will then be informed about the possibility of participation in the present study. They will receive both oral and written information about the project and will be allowed enough time to consider participation before deciding, as long as it allows contact to the palliative care team within three weeks from diagnosis. It is expected that most patients will come to Dept. of Surgery with a family member or friend, as they are aware that they will receive the results from the investigations performed. However, patients will be informed that they have a right to come back for further information about the protocol accompanied by a family member or any other person they want to bring. They will meet either a surgeon or a palliative care physician who can give further information and answer any possible questions at this meeting.~Written informed consent will be obtained before any protocol related procedures are performed.~Carers will receive separate oral and written information either on the same day as the patient or when meeting the palliative care team on the first visit. Carers will sign a separate consent form if they want to participate in the study. Carers have the same rights as the patients regarding time for consideration and further information before signing the consent form.~Palliative Care Intervention~Patients and carers will be seen on home-visits. The first time they will meet a doctor and usually also a nurse, while follow-up home-visits can be undertaken by either a doctor or a nurse. Home-visits are scheduled every four weeks. Patients can contact a doctor or a specialised nurse on weekdays for consultation. The palliative care nurse will contact a palliative care physician if needed for change of treatment or other reasons. Palliative care is offered in parallel with any specific cancer treatment given.~The patients will receive standard palliative care including treatment of symptoms (e.g. pain, nausea, weight loss, loss of appetite, diarrhoea or fatigue), psychosocial support, physiotherapy, nutritional counselling and advance care planning, depending on their needs. The palliative care team comprises physicians, nurses, a physiotherapist and a chaplain. Patients and/or carers scoring 8 or more on HADS for anxiety and/or depression will be advised to be referred to a psychologist via their general practitioner.~Change from standard of care~Patients with pancreatic cancer are normally referred to palliative care when the surgeon, oncologist or general practitioner taking care of them find that they are not able to meet their palliative care needs, or if the patients and their families request a referral. Most patients are referred late in their trajectory and only half of the patients are referred. We do not know whether patients not referred to palliative care in the routine setting have palliative care needs, whether they are met by other physicians or whether they have unsolved palliative care needs.~Patients accepting inclusion in the project will get specialised palliative care throughout their trajectory, within three weeks after diagnosis until end-of-life or cure without residual palliative care needs.~Both patients participating in the project and patients referred on-demand will receive four-weekly visits in their homes. Patients participating in the project are guaranteed that the first visit will take place within three weeks after diagnosis, whereas patients referred on-demand might have to wait longer before they meet the palliative care team.

Patients referred to Dept. of Surgery and diagnosed with pancreatic cancer are offered participation in this study. All participants will receive home-visits from the palliative care team every four weeks, starting within three weeks from diagnosis and until end-of-life or cure without residual palliative needs. The study design chosen is a quasi-experimental design using historical control patients for the primary outcome: use of health care services (acute hospital admissions, days in hospital) and the secondary outcomes: survival and place of death. The historical control patients were diagnosed before the introduction of early palliative care. The outcomes are readily available from patient records and are expected to carry a very low risk of registration bias. Palliative care needs at referral in the study group will be compared with palliative care needs in the subgroup of historical control patients referred to palliative care on-demand. Demographic data will be collected for participants and historical controls to evaluate if any selection bias or other systematic differences exist between the groups. For outcomes where unbiased historical control data are not available a prospective observational approach is used. These include symptom burden, psychological health and satisfaction with care. The study will include 40-50 patients and their carers from September 2019 to September 2020. Recruitment and informed consent Recruitment to this project will take place in Dept. of Surgery, Hospital of North Zealand to which all patients suspected of having pancreatic cancer and living in the northern catchment area of the Capital Region of Copenhagen will be referred for further investigations. The patients will be informed about their diagnosis by the responsible surgeon in the outpatient clinic in an undisturbed environment. The patients will then be informed about the possibility of participation in the present study. They will receive both oral and written information about the project and will be allowed enough time to consider participation before deciding, as long as it allows contact to the palliative care team within three weeks from diagnosis. It is expected that most patients will come to Dept. of Surgery with a family member or friend, as they are aware that they will receive the results from the investigations performed. However, patients will be informed that they have a right to come back for further information about the protocol accompanied by a family member or any other person they want to bring. They will meet either a surgeon or a palliative care physician who can give further information and answer any possible questions at this meeting. Written informed consent will be obtained before any protocol related procedures are performed. Carers will receive separate oral and written information either on the same day as the patient or when meeting the palliative care team on the first visit. Carers will sign a separate consent form if they want to participate in the study. Carers have the same rights as the patients regarding time for consideration and further information before signing the consent form. Palliative Care Intervention Patients and carers will be seen on home-visits. The first time they will meet a doctor and usually also a nurse, while follow-up home-visits can be undertaken by either a doctor or a nurse. Home-visits are scheduled every four weeks. Patients can contact a doctor or a specialised nurse on weekdays for consultation. The palliative care nurse will contact a palliative care physician if needed for change of treatment or other reasons. Palliative care is offered in parallel with any specific cancer treatment given. The patients will receive standard palliative care including treatment of symptoms (e.g. pain, nausea, weight loss, loss of appetite, diarrhoea or fatigue), psychosocial support, physiotherapy, nutritional counselling and advance care planning, depending on their needs. The palliative care team comprises physicians, nurses, a physiotherapist and a chaplain. Patients and/or carers scoring 8 or more on HADS for anxiety and/or depression will be advised to be referred to a psychologist via their general practitioner. Change from standard of care Patients with pancreatic cancer are normally referred to palliative care when the surgeon, oncologist or general practitioner taking care of them find that they are not able to meet their palliative care needs, or if the patients and their families request a referral. Most patients are referred late in their trajectory and only half of the patients are referred. We do not know whether patients not referred to palliative care in the routine setting have palliative care needs, whether they are met by other physicians or whether they have unsolved palliative care needs. Patients accepting inclusion in the project will get specialised palliative care throughout their trajectory, within three weeks after diagnosis until end-of-life or cure without residual palliative care needs. Both patients participating in the project and patients referred on-demand will receive four-weekly visits in their homes. Patients participating in the project are guaranteed that the first visit will take place within three weeks after diagnosis, whereas patients referred on-demand might have to wait longer before they meet the palliative care team.

Does the Implementation of Nurse-driven HIV Screening for Key Populations in the Emergency Departments Limit Undiagnosed Infections in the Paris Metropolitan Area? DEPIST Trial (ANRS 14055)
|
In France, 40% of newly diagnosed HIV infections are concentrated in the Paris metropolitan area.~Two key populations are mainly concerned: persons born in a foreign country and men who have sex with men. The randomized trial ANRS DICI-VIH (2014-2015) showed that nurse-driven HIV screening for key populations, supported by research staff, in 8 emergency departments (EDs) of the region, was effective in addition to diagnostic testing. The strategy advocated by the WHO and the recent French recommendations support the proposal of screening for key populations in the EDs. Thus, it is important to evaluate the impact and the feasibility of the implementation of this strategy on a large scale.~The aim is to evaluate the impact of a wide implementation of nurse-driven HIV screening by rapid test in key populations combined with usual physician-directed diagnostic testing (intervention strategy) compared to diagnostic testing alone (control strategy) in the usual practice of the EDs.~The strategies will be compared during two periods in 18 EDs of Paris metropolitan area following a stepped-wedge cluster randomized trial.~During intervention period, nurses will suggest performing an HIV rapid test to patients belonging to key populations according to the answers to a self-administered questionnaire.

Changes of Soft and Hard Tissues After Alveolar Ridge Preservation: Freeze-dried Bone Allograft vs. L-PRF Clot
|
A Clinical Trial to study the effectiveness between two, tooth socket grafting materials namely, Freeze Dried Bone Allograft (human derived bone particles) and Leukocytic-Platelet Rich Fibrin (the patient's own centrifuged blood).~The purpose of this study is to compare the effects (good and bad) of Bone Allograft to Platelet Rich Fibrin to see which material would be the most effective in maintaining the volume of the gum and bone of the jaw during the healing phase as well as minimizing the amount of pain and/or swelling following tooth extraction.
|
A prospective,randomized clinical trial will be conducted to determine whether L-PRF, compared to freeze dried bone allograft, will result in comparable volumetric shrinkage of the alveolar ridge and overlying keratinized tissue, following extraction of teeth and socket grafting.~This trial aims at obtaining information to determine which material would provide a superior clinical result, as well as reporting on patient related outcomes. The participants will be randomly assigned to two groups. The surgical procedure will be performed by one of five calibrated periodontal residents.~Patients will be followed for 2 weeks post-operatively by the same resident, to monitor the healing process and to assess for any complications.~Randomization will be achieved using a computerized randomization scheme and will be assigned to one of two groups and allocated by means of a sealed envelope opened on the day of surgery communicated to the surgeon during the surgery by a supervising faculty member. Participants will be block-randomized for each of the 5 operators for balance.~Anesthesia will be achieved and soft tissue measurements will be obtained using a periodontal probe. An atraumatic extraction technique will be performed to allow for minimal disturbance of the soft and hard tissue architecture.~The extraction socket walls are then assessed and any defects in socket measured with a periodontal probe. Group A: Full thickness mucoperiosteal pouch is created up to ~3mm apical of the bony crest of the socket with a periosteal elevator. The socket is incrementally filled with mineralized cortical freeze-dried bone allograft and condensed. Group B: Socket is pouched as in group A followed by venipuncture of the antecubital vein with 21G needle and collection of 4-6 vials (10ml each) of venous blood without any additive or anticoagulant. The vials are centrifuged for 12 minutes at 2700 rpm to form L-PRF clots. The socket is incrementally filled with the clots and condensed.~Following socket fill, both groups will have the grafts covered by dense polytetrafluoroethylene membrane. The membrane is trimmed and adapted with the borders tucked 2-3mm underneath the gingival tissues. Tissues, graft and membrane are stabilized with 5/0 PTFE sutures.~The patients will also receive a pain VAS questionnaire evaluating the post-operative pain 1 and 7 days following surgery. A CBCT with the radiographic stent will be taken within 72 hours of the surgery.~7 days post-op: Sutures will be removed if deemed suitable. The VAS questionnaire will be collected.~6 weeks post op: d-PTFE membrane will be retrieved and discarded using tissue forceps. Alginate impressions will be taken for a surgical guide.~11 weeks post op: Second CBCT will be taken with radiographic surgical stent. Images obtained will be used to analyze and compare the ridge dimensions to those obtained at baseline as well as for surgical implant planning.~12 weeks post op: Soft tissue measurement with periodontal probe and floss spanned over edentulous site from buccal to lingual mucogingival junction. Implant placement will be done per standard procedure. A 2.5mm diameter trephine drill will be used to harvest a bone core for histologic analysis. The bone core will be immediately submerged in a solution of 10% neutral buffered formalin. Osteotomies and implant placement will be done following the manufacturer's protocol. Depending on the buccal bone and soft tissue thickness, ancillary soft tissue augmentation, bone augmentation or combination of these procedures may be indicated. The patient will be followed up and referred to the restorative dentist as per standard procedure. Photographs will be taken at every visit.

The extraction socket walls are then assessed and any defects in socket measured with a periodontal probe. Group A: Full thickness mucoperiosteal pouch is created up to 3mm apical of the bony crest of the socket with a periosteal elevator. The socket is incrementally filled with mineralized cortical freeze-dried bone allograft and condensed. Group B: Socket is pouched as in group A followed by venipuncture of the antecubital vein with 21G needle and collection of 4-6 vials (10ml each) of venous blood without any additive or anticoagulant. The vials are centrifuged for 12 minutes at 2700 rpm to form L-PRF clots. The socket is incrementally filled with the clots and condensed. Following socket fill, both groups will have the grafts covered by dense polytetrafluoroethylene membrane. The membrane is trimmed and adapted with the borders tucked 2-3mm underneath the gingival tissues. Tissues, graft and membrane are stabilized with 5/0 PTFE sutures. The patients will also receive a pain VAS questionnaire evaluating the post-operative pain 1 and 7 days following surgery. A CBCT with the radiographic stent will be taken within 72 hours of the surgery. 7 days post-op: Sutures will be removed if deemed suitable. The VAS questionnaire will be collected. 6 weeks post op: d-PTFE membrane will be retrieved and discarded using tissue forceps. Alginate impressions will be taken for a surgical guide. 11 weeks post op: Second CBCT will be taken with radiographic surgical stent. Images obtained will be used to analyze and compare the ridge dimensions to those obtained at baseline as well as for surgical implant planning. 12 weeks post op: Soft tissue measurement with periodontal probe and floss spanned over edentulous site from buccal to lingual mucogingival junction. Implant placement will be done per standard procedure. A 2.5mm diameter trephine drill will be used to harvest a bone core for histologic analysis. The bone core will be immediately submerged in a solution of 10% neutral buffered formalin. Osteotomies and implant placement will be done following the manufacturer's protocol. Depending on the buccal bone and soft tissue thickness, ancillary soft tissue augmentation, bone augmentation or combination of these procedures may be indicated. The patient will be followed up and referred to the restorative dentist as per standard procedure. Photographs will be taken at every visit.

Hand-assisted Laparoscopic Donor Nephrectomy Periumbilical Versus Pfannenstiel Incision
|
Despite efforts to optimize the transplantation of deceased donor kidneys, the number of available kidneys continues to fall short of the demand. Living donor kidneys have been used to overcome this shortage. Graft and patient survival is significantly higher following living donor kidney transplantation compared with deceased donor kidney transplantation. Open donor nephrectomy was the universal technique prior to the advent of laparoscopic techniques. Laparoscopic approaches have definite advantages over open surgery in terms of blood loss, postoperative pain, analgesic requirements, duration of hospital stay, and convalescence. There is some controversy regarding longer warm ischemia time, longer operative time, and increased bleeding with laparoscopic nephrectomy compared with hand-assisted laparoscopic living donor nephrectomy (HALDN). HALDN attempted to reduce warm ischemia time by using the hand port to extract the kidney instantly after dividing the blood vessels. This technique also offers tactile feedback, better manual control of bleeding, a relatively shorter learning curve, less kidney traction, faster kidney removal, and shorter warm ischemic periods. HALDN is often performed using periumbilical and Pfannenstiel incisions for hand-assisted port placement. Pfannenstiel incisions improve wound complications such as incisional hernia, cosmetic issues, and wound dehiscence. However, duration of surgery, postoperative pain score, and length of hospital stay are significantly lower in donors with periumbilical incisions.To the best of our knowledge, these two types of incision have not been compared in a randomized controlled trial in patients undergoing HALDN. Our objective is to compare the results of Pfannenstiel incision (intervention group) with periumbilical incision (control group). The return to normal physical activity will be evaluated in a clinical randomized trial using an expertise-based design.

Despite all efforts to optimize the transplantation of deceased donor kidneys, the number of available kidneys continues to fall short of demand. Living donor kidneys have been used to overcome this organ shortage. Graft and patient survival is significantly higher following living donor kidney transplantation compared with deceased donor kidney Transplantation.~The major disadvantage of using living donors is that a healthy individual must undergo a major surgical procedure to provide the organ for transplantation. The donor does not medically benefit from the procedure, but there is a medical impact on both donor and recipient. Therefore, a nephrectomy technique associated with the lowest donor risk and the best organ quality should be used during Transplantation.~Open donor nephrectomy was the universal technique before the advent of laparoscopic techniques. Laparoscopic living donor nephrectomy was introduced in 1995 and commercial ports were developed shortly after. In 1998, Wolf et al. described the hand-assisted laparoscopic living donor nephrectomy (HALDN) technique and since then it has become widely adopted. Laparoscopic methods have definite advantages over open surgery in terms of blood loss, postoperative pain, analgesic requirements, duration of hospital stay, and convalescence.~There is some controversy regarding the possibility of relatively longer warm ischemia time, longer operative time, and increased bleeding with laparoscopic nephrectomy. HALDN reduces warm ischemia time by extracting the kidney using the hand port as soon as the blood vessels are divided. This technique is associated with tactile feedback, better manual control of bleeding, relatively shorter learning curve, less kidney traction, faster kidney removal, and shorter warm ischemic periods. At present, there is no strong evidence to support the use of one laparoscopic approach in preference to the other. However, evidence suggests that HALDN is the most cost-effective method of donor surgery and achieves equivalent clinical benefits of pure laparoscopic approaches with less operative time.~HALDN is usually performed using a periumbilical or Pfannenstiel incision for hand-assisted port placement and kidney extraction. A periumbilical incision is made at the midline. In contrast, a Pfannenstiel incision is made as a slightly curved horizontal line just above the pubic symphysis. Pfannenstiel incisions improve wound complications, such as incisional hernia, cosmetic results, and wound dehiscence. However, the duration of surgery, postoperative pain score, and length of hospital stay were significantly lower in donors with periumbilical incision. The inserted hand plays a vital role in the procedure, including retraction and dissection, therefore the hand port midline incision is placed close to the periumbilical area. Dissecting the upper pole of the kidney through a Pfannenstiel incision may be difficult in morbidly obese and large donors.~Patients with Pfannenstiel incisions return to normal physical activity quicker than those with periumbilical incisions. However, to the best of our knowledge, these two different incision types in patients undergoing HALDN have not been compared in a randomized controlled trial.Our objective is to compare the return of patients to physical activity following a HALDN procedure with Pfannenstiel incision (intervention group) or periumbilical incision (control group) in a clinical randomized trial using an expertise-based design.

Warm Needle Acupuncture vs Needle Acupuncture
|
This is a two-armed randomised controlled pilot study that investigates the component efficacy of moxibustion for osteoarthritis of the knee. Participants will be randomised to receive either warm needle acupuncture or needle acupuncture. Participants and acupuncturists will be blinded to group allocation. The primary and secondary outcome measures are WOMAC and SF36 respectively. Qualitative interviews will be used to gather information on the patients' experiences and perceptions of the trial and the treatment provided.~It is hypothesised that warm needle acupuncture will lead to a greater reduction in clinical signs and symptoms than needle acupuncture.
|
Acupuncture Treatment~All participants will receive acupuncture. Only points local to the knee will be used. There will be 4-6 points used per knee, therefore 8 -12 needles per treatment. A record will be kept of the points used at each treatment. Both knees will be treated even if only one knee is painful. This will ensure that participants receive similar treatments.~Patients will be treated seated, as this allows better access to the relevant acupuncture points. It also helps ensure the moxibustion is carried out safely.~Participants will receive 8 treatments in the first 4 weeks (twice a week), then 4 treatments in 4 weeks (once a week).~Blinding procedures~The only difference in the procedures will be that lit cones are placed on the needles of the treatment group whilst unlit moxa cones will be placed on the needles of the control group. Smokeless moxa will be used. All patients will see the needles being inserted and the moxa cones placed on the needles by the acupuncturist. Skin guards will be placed at the base of the needle to reduce the immediate sense of heat on the surface of the skin. Similar skin guards are routinely used in acupuncture treatment to prevent any discomfort.~The acupuncturist will carry out a consultation at each session as per normal practice. After the needles have been inserted and the moxa cones have been placed on needles the acupuncturist leaves and an assistant acupuncturist enters the room. The assistant acupuncturist will place a screen in front of the patient to prevent them from seeing their knees. The assistant acupuncturist will then remove one cone at a time and light it. In the treatment group the lit cone is placed on the needle. In the control group the lit cone is place in a small dish close to the knee, a replacement unlit cone is placed on the needle. This process is repeated until all the cones are lit. The unlit cone is replaced on the needle of the control group to try and ensure they experience the same sensations as the treatment group. The use of a second acupuncturist to light the moxa ensures that the acupuncturist who carries out the consultation and inserts the needles is blinded to group allocation.

Warm Needle Acupuncture vs Needle Acupuncture
Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
This is a two-armed randomised controlled pilot study that investigates the component efficacy of moxibustion for osteoarthritis of the knee. Participants will be randomised to receive either warm needle acupuncture or needle acupuncture. Participants and acupuncturists will be blinded to group allocation. The primary and secondary outcome measures are WOMAC and SF36 respectively. Qualitative interviews will be used to gather information on the patients' experiences and perceptions of the trial and the treatment provided. It is hypothesised that warm needle acupuncture will lead to a greater reduction in clinical signs and symptoms than needle acupuncture.
Detailed Description
-----------------
Acupuncture Treatment All participants will receive acupuncture. Only points local to the knee will be used. There will be 4-6 points used per knee, therefore 8 -12 needles per treatment. A record will be kept of the points used at each treatment. Both knees will be treated even if only one knee is painful. This will ensure that participants receive similar treatments. Patients will be treated seated, as this allows better access to the relevant acupuncture points. It also helps ensure the moxibustion is carried out safely. Participants will receive 8 treatments in the first 4 weeks (twice a week), then 4 treatments in 4 weeks (once a week). Blinding procedures The only difference in the procedures will be that lit cones are placed on the needles of the treatment group whilst unlit moxa cones will be placed on the needles of the control group. Smokeless moxa will be used. All patients will see the needles being inserted and the moxa cones placed on the needles by the acupuncturist. Skin guards will be placed at the base of the needle to reduce the immediate sense of heat on the surface of the skin. Similar skin guards are routinely used in acupuncture treatment to prevent any discomfort. The acupuncturist will carry out a consultation at each session as per normal practice. After the needles have been inserted and the moxa cones have been placed on needles the acupuncturist leaves and an assistant acupuncturist enters the room. The assistant acupuncturist will place a screen in front of the patient to prevent them from seeing their knees. The assistant acupuncturist will then remove one cone at a time and light it. In the treatment group the lit cone is placed on the needle. In the control group the lit cone is place in a small dish close to the knee, a replacement unlit cone is placed on the needle. This process is repeated until all the cones are lit. The unlit cone is replaced on the needle of the control group to try and ensure they experience the same sensations as the treatment group. The use of a second acupuncturist to light the moxa ensures that the acupuncturist who carries out the consultation and inserts the needles is blinded to group allocation.

IL15 Dendritic Cell Vaccine for Patients With Resected Stage III (A, B or C) or Stage IV Melanoma
|
The purpose of the study is to gather data on feasibility as well as immune and clinical efficacy of of a dendritic cell vaccine using IL15 in patients with resected stage III or stage IV melanoma
|
IL15 is a T cell growth factor that pre-clinical data overwhelmingly suggests could have a very important role in cancer immunotherapy. A desirable property for a dendritic cell vaccine directed against cancer is the ability to efficiently prime naïve, tumor associated antigen specific T cells into potent CTLs. Results of studies in healthy volunteers have shown that IL15 DCs are particularly efficient at priming functional melanoma specific CD8+ T cells. The use of IL15 in the manufacture of the DC vaccine could result in an improved immunotherapy product.
