## An Observational Study to Learn More About Treatment With Regorafenib in People With Advanced Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors in the United States - **NCT ID**: NCT06321055 - **Study ID**: 22533 - **Status**: NOT_YET_RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2024-03-20 - **Completion Date**: 2024-04-28 - **Lead Sponsor**: Bayer ### Study Description This is an observational study in which data already collected from people with advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumors are studied.In this observational study data are collected from participants who have private insurance or Medicare and who had started regorafenib treatment.Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is a type of cancer that most commonly originates from the stomach or small intestine. Advanced means that the cancer has spread to other parts of the body.The study drug, regorafenib, is already approved for doctors to prescribe to people with GIST. Regorafenib works by blocking certain proteins that cause the growth of cancer cells. Regorafenib is recommended as the third choice of treatment for patients after imatinib and sunitinib have stopped working or have caused side effects that are too severe to continue the treatment. In addition, it is also the recommended first choice of treatment in people with GIST who had low levels of protein called succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) protein. This condition is called SDHdeficient GIST. However, doctors might sometimes give it in a different order. To better understand the treatment patterns with regorafenib for GIST, more knowledge is needed about its use in the real world.The participants in this study had started treatment with regorafenib as part of their regular care from their doctors.The main purpose of this study is to learn more about the use of regorafenib treatment among people with advanced GIST who have private insurance or Medicare in the United States. To do this, researchers will collect information on:Duration of treatment with regorafenib (also known as duration of therapy)The length of time it took for participants to switch to another GIST treatment after starting regorafenib (also known as time to next therapy)The data will come from the participants' information stored in a database, called Merative MarketScan for people in the United States. Data collected will be from April 2002 to September 2023.Researchers will track the data of people with GIST who started regorafenib and will follow them for at least 28 days.In this study, only available data are collected. No visits or tests are required as part of this study. ### Conditions - Advanced Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor ### Study Design - **Type**: OBSERVATIONAL - **Allocation**: N/A - **Intervention Model**: N/A - **Primary Purpose**: N/A ### Interventions - Regorafenib (Stivarga, BAY73-4506) ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Duration of Therapy (DOT) on regorafenib - Time to Next Therapy (TTNT) therapy after regorafenib **Secondary Outcomes** - Number of the guideline-listed medications other than regorafenib - Descriptive analysis of baseline demographic - Descriptive analysis of clinical characteristics - Number of patients with evidence of any metastasis on or after the index date during the follow-up period. - Number of patients with evidence of surgery on or after the index date during the follow-up period using Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) codes and International Classification of Disease 9/10 Procedure codes (ICD-PC). ### Location - **Facility**: Bayer, Whippany, New Jersey, 07981, United States @@

## SYsteMatical Trained learnIng aLgorithms for Oral carcInogenesiS Interpretation by Optical Coherence Tomography - **NCT ID**: NCT06321003 - **Study ID**: OCT01 - **Status**: RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2024-03-13 - **Completion Date**: 2027-04-01 - **Lead Sponsor**: University of Palermo ### Study Description This clinical trial aims to assess the efficacy of Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) in the early diagnosis of oral cancer. It focuses on Oral Potentially Malignant Disorders (OPMDs) as precursors to Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma (OSCC). Despite the availability of oral screening, diagnostic delays persist, underscoring the importance of exploring non-invasive methodologies. The OCT technology provides cross-sectional analysis of biological tissues, enabling a detailed evaluation of ultrastructural oral mucosal features.The trial aims to compare OCT preliminary evaluation with traditional histology, considered the gold standard in oral lesion diagnosing. It seeks to create a database of pathological OCT data, facilitating the non invasive identification of carcinogenic processes. The goal is to develop a diagnostic algorithm based on OCT, enhancing its ability to detect characteristic patterns such as the keratinized layer, squamous epithelium, basement membrane, and lamina propria in oral tissues affected by OPMDs and OSCC.Furthermore, the trial aims to implement Artificial Intelligence (AI) in OCT image analysis. The use of machine learning algorithms could contribute to a faster and more accurate assessment of images, aiding in early diagnosis. The trial aims to standardize the comparison between in vivo OCT images and histological analysis, adopting a site-specific approach in biopsies to improve correspondence between data collected by both methods.In summary, the trial not only evaluates OCT as a diagnostic tool but also aims to integrate AI to develop a standardized approach that enhances the accuracy of oral cancer diagnosis, providing a significant contribution to clinical practice. ### Conditions - Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma - Oral Potentially Malignant Disorder - Oral Leukoplakia - Proliferative Verrucous Leukoplakia - Oral Lichen Planus - Oral Lichenoid Lesion - Graft-versus-host-disease - Oral Erythroplakia - Actinic Keratoses - Actinic Cheilitis - Oral Cancer - Oral Disease ### Study Design - **Type**: OBSERVATIONAL - **Allocation**: N/A - **Intervention Model**: N/A - **Primary Purpose**: N/A ### Interventions - OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography) ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Phase I: Standardization of Biopsy and OCT Imaging Techniques - Phase II: Development of Standardized OCT Patterns, Creation of Comprehensive Image Repository, and Training Algorithms - Phase III: Development and Large-Scale Validation of Diagnostic OCT Software **Secondary Outcomes** ### Location - **Facility**: University of Palermo, Palermo, N/A, N/A, Italy @@

## Predictive Remote Photoplethysmography Algorithm for Blood Pressure Pressure Assessment and Monitoring - **NCT ID**: NCT06320847 - **Study ID**: Predictbloodpressure - **Status**: RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2024-01-02 - **Completion Date**: 2024-12 - **Lead Sponsor**: Singapore General Hospital ### Study Description Significant advancements in the field of medical technologies have resulted in the rise of contact-free methods of haemodynamic monitoring. Remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) is a videobased, contactless form of monitoring that operates through a camera-enabled device. This innovation interprets minute variations in skin colour due to blood flow which, when analysed with complex signal processing algorithms, generates vital sign readings. Currently, Nervotec's rPPG technology allows for the collection of rPPG waveforms, which enables the measurement of heart rate, heart rate variability, respiration rate and blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) level through signal processing techniques. The plethysmography signals can be used to estimate blood pressure through the creation and training of a predictive model. By examining and extracting key features of a continuous PPG waveform by training an artificial neural network, correlations between these features and BP can be studied. ### Conditions - Remote Photoplethysmography , Blood Pressure ### Study Design - **Type**: INTERVENTIONAL - **Allocation**: NA - **Intervention Model**: SINGLE_GROUP - **Primary Purpose**: HEALTH_SERVICES_RESEARCH ### Interventions - rPPG ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - To determine the correlation between remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) and blood pressure variations. - To develop a predictive model in using rPPG for determination of blood pressure. - To validate this predictive model by comparing blood pressure readings obtained using rPPG with standard procedures such as contact sensors and automated oscillometry. **Secondary Outcomes** ### Location - **Facility**: Singapore General Hospital, Singapore, N/A, 169608, Singapore @@

## DRIVing Simulator and People With NeuroCognitive Disorders - **NCT ID**: NCT06320639 - **Study ID**: UGustaveEiffel - **Status**: RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2023-10-03 - **Completion Date**: 2026-10-10 - **Lead Sponsor**: University Gustave Eiffel ### Study Description The ageing of the population is leading to an increasing number of older drivers on the roads. At the same time, the proportion of older people with pathological ageing and neurocognitive disorders (NCD) is increasing. In terms of road safety, this raises the question of whether these drivers should continue to drive or not. People with NCDs may not be aware of the presence, extent and progression of their cognitive impairment and the impact it can have on daily life, including driving.Despite their loss of autonomy and medical advice, 22% of people with major NCD continue to drive. In addition, the presence of minor NCD also puts people at a higher risk of road accidents.However, several studies demonstrated that an NCD does not lead to a systematic and immediate impairment of driving ability and abruptly stopping driving leads to health problems, such as the risk of depression and greatly reduces quality of life.It is therefore relevant to focus research on driving with people with NCD in order to have a reliable indicator of the person's abilities and the impact of their cognitive impairment on driving activity. The proposed study seeks to meet this need by studying the performance of people with NCD on a driving station (mini-simulator) while assessing their ability to evaluate their performance.To achieve this goal, people with NCDs will perform tasks on a driving simulator. In addition, after each task on the driving simulator, they will answer questions about how they evaluate their own driving. Two assessors will observe the participants' driving and will estimate their driving performance. By comparing the driver's self-assessment with the assessors' assessment, an "awareness score of driving ability" will be calculated to determine whether the driver correctly assessed his or her performance.Another project already underway aims to collect similar data from people without a diagnosis of NCDs (control group).The principal objective of the present study is to compare the driving performance in a simulator and the awareness of driving ability of people with NCDs with those of a control group. Secondary objectives are :1. to measure driving performance in a simulator and awareness of driving abilities (i.e. self-assessment skills) of people with NCDs.2. to analyse driving performance and awareness of driving abilities according to the diagnosis and severity of the disorder (i.e. minor or major neurocognitive disorders).3. to establish a methodology to identify a driver at risk of dangerous driving.It is mainly an exploratory study however some hypotheses can be made :* The driving performance and awareness of driving skills of people with NCDs are poorer compared to those of older, control individuals.* Individuals' driving performance and awareness of driving ability are lower in the presence of major NCDs compared to minor NCDs. ### Conditions - Neurocognitive Disorders ### Study Design - **Type**: OBSERVATIONAL - **Allocation**: N/A - **Intervention Model**: N/A - **Primary Purpose**: N/A ### Interventions ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Awareness score of driving ability - Driving performance variables measured by the driving simulator **Secondary Outcomes** ### Location - **Facility**: Hôpital des Charpennes, Villeurbanne, N/A, 69100, France @@

## Exogenous Ketosis in a Fed and a Fasted State - **NCT ID**: NCT06320522 - **Study ID**: R82053/RE002 - **Status**: RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2023-02-15 - **Completion Date**: 2024-05 - **Lead Sponsor**: University of Oxford ### Study Description The kinetics of circulating βHB following ingestion of the ketone monoester are dependent on several variables that determine the balance between appearance into, and disappearance from, the bloodstream. These dynamics have been well characterised in fasted humans but in the real world the ketone monoester is likely to be ingested in a fed state, pertinently within athletic spheres consumption would proceed a substantial high-carbohydrate meal. Within this, it is unclear how metabolism under exogenous ketosis might be affected in a fed versus fasted state.This four-arm crossover study looks to characterise the relationship between feeding status, βHB pharmacokinetics, and resting metabolism.As exogenous ketosis is known to reduce circulating glucose levels, this study will also explored if hepatic metabolism - for example, de novo lipogenesis - might consequently be altered, with implications for metabolic disease states such as Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD) and type II diabetes.Participants will be asked to consume either the ketone monoester drink or a placebo drink when fasted and when having previously consumed a meal. ### Conditions - Ketosis - Exogenous Ketosis ### Study Design - **Type**: INTERVENTIONAL - **Allocation**: RANDOMIZED - **Intervention Model**: CROSSOVER - **Primary Purpose**: BASIC_SCIENCE ### Interventions - Ketone Monoester - Placebo ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Plasma β-hydroxybutyrate (βHB) kinetics - Plasma glucose kinetics - Postprandial de novo lipogenesis (DNL) **Secondary Outcomes** - Plasma biochemistry - Very low-density lipoprotein-triglyceride (VLDL-TG) fatty acid composition - Breath acetone - Urine volume - Urine composition - Indirect calorimetry - Subjective measures of appetite - Subjective measures of gastrointestinal distress ### Location - **Facility**: Oxford Centre for Diabetes, Endocrinology, and Metabolism (OCDEM), Oxford, Oxfordshire, OX3 7LE, United Kingdom @@
## Interest of Urinary Oxygen Partial Pressure (PO2u) in Predicting the Onset or Recovery of Acute Renal Failure During Shock States - OXYpi Study - **NCT ID**: NCT06320509 - **Study ID**: 49RC23_0417 - **Status**: NOT_YET_RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2024-04 - **Completion Date**: 2026-07 - **Lead Sponsor**: University Hospital, Angers ### Study Description Shock state is defined as an acute, life-threatening, circulatory failure with impaired tissue oxygenation (or tissue hypoxia). The cause of the shock state can be septic, anaphylactic, hypovolemic or cardiogenic. Its management is based on etiological treatment and replacement of organ failures. Acute kidney injury (AKI) may be lead by renal hypoxia. Acute kidney injury is frequent in patients admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) and associated with an increased mortality. Serum creatinine is the reference biological marker in the diagnosis of Acute kidney injury. However, its use is limited by a delayed increase in plasma creatinine level in relation to the causal renal agression, at a time when renal tissue damage may already be established. Thus, the identification of a biological marker making it possible to estimate renal hypoxia continuously during a shock could allow us to identify early a situation at risk of evolving into Acute kidney injury.The renal medulla is vulnerable to tissue hypoxia with a risk of acute tubular necrosis. As in situ measurement of mPO2 is not possible in current practice in humans, several studies have shown a positive correlation between variations in mPO2/uPO2 and occurence of Acute kidney injury. In humans, studies have shown a significant association between the reduction in uPO2 in cardiac surgeries and the occurrence of postoperative Acute kidney injury. The aim of the study is to describe the association between uPO2 values and the onset of Acute kidney injury and/or the ocurrence of early recovery of renal function after Acute kidney injury. Any patient in shock (group A) or without shock and requiring urinary catheterization as part of treatment (group B) admitted to the Medical-Intensive Care Unit of Angers University Hospital is eligible for inclusion. After inclusion, a continuous uPO2 measuring probe is introduced with the placement of the urinary probe. uPO2 is collected continuously for the first 5 days of admission or until discharge from intensive care or removal of the urinary catheter. uPO2 is also measured by a gasometry on a urine sample on a multi-daily basis. Serum creatinine is collected every 12 hours (twice a day) and diuresis every two hours for 5 days. ### Conditions - Shock Circulatory ### Study Design - **Type**: INTERVENTIONAL - **Allocation**: NON_RANDOMIZED - **Intervention Model**: PARALLEL - **Primary Purpose**: SCREENING ### Interventions - Continuous measurement of uPO2 (both groups) ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - A - For patients without acute kidney injury at inclusion, the occurence of acute kidney injury and its severity according to the KDIGO criteria - B - For patients with acute kidney injury occurring during the first 3 days following inclusion, early recovery is defined by the return to pre-shock renal function 48 hours from the start of acute kidney injury **Secondary Outcomes** - In patients in group A, assess the association between uPO2 variation and acute kidney injury, defined by KDIGO criteria, in different subgroups (septic shock, sepsis without norepinephrine, non-septic shock). - In patients in group A with newly occured acute kidney injury, assess the association between uPO2 variation and recovery of acute kidney injury in different subgroups (septic shock, sepsis without norepinephrine, non-septic shock). - In patients in group A, assess the evolution of uPO2 during the first 5 days in patients with and without sepsis - Describe the variation of uPO2 according to evolution of Mean Arterial Pressure and cardiac output in the subgroup of patients who received fluid expansion - Describe the variation of uPO2 according to evolution of Mean Arterial Pressure and cardiac output in the subgroup of patients who received blood transfusion - In patients with need of increasing Mean Arterial Pressure by increase of norepinephrine doses, describe the evolution of uPO2 according to Mean Arterial Pressure evolution. - In patients with need of introduction or increase of dobutamine, describe the evolution of uPO2 according to cardiac output or Mean Arterial Pressure evolution. - Evaluation the correlation between uPO2 assessed by Oxylite Pro® device and urinary gasometry. - In patients without shock, describe the evolution of uPO2 during the first 5 days. ### Location - **Facility**: University Hospital of Angers, Angers, N/A, 49933, France @@
## Evaluation of the Effect of a Physical Activity Recovery Stay - **NCT ID**: NCT06320496 - **Study ID**: IRR-FLAVIGNY-2021-2 - **Status**: RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2022-03-22 - **Completion Date**: 2025-03 - **Lead Sponsor**: Union de Gestion des Etablissements des Caisses d'Assurance Maladie - Nord Est ### Study Description A WHO study in 2020 revealed that 81% of adolescents (aged 11-17) do not respect the recommendation of one hour of moderate physical activity per day. In the context of disability, many factors impose limits on physical activity. While the pathology itself induces limitations and restrictions (prolonged sitting time, assisted movement, etc.), organizational constraints also apply to both children and parents, who have to divide their time between work, school and therapeutic care, which is sometimes numerous and varied over the course of a single week. These limitations generate stress and fatigue, and prolonged sedentary periods lead children with chronic illnesses, rare diseases or disabilities into a process of physical deconditioning. The accumulation of sedentary time is detrimental to cardiovascular and metabolic health.To combat this deconditioning, the 2008 National Physical Activity and Sport Plan (PNAPS) sets out the main guidelines for treatment and implementation. The plan explains that "for patients with chronic illnesses, rare diseases or disabilities, the aim is to encourage care and guidance towards Adapted Physical Activity (APA). The attending physician will be able to identify local therapeutic education programs, rehabilitation services and "sport-santé" offers, to improve access for these patients to supervised local programs". In addition, the plan suggests "developing APA programs in healthcare establishments to enable people with chronic illnesses, rare diseases or disabilities to access health education incorporating practical sessions".In line with this plan, an exercise reconditioning program has been set up at our facility. This three-month stay includes children with a variety of pathologies, but with a common feature of physical deconditioning. ### Conditions - Children With Cerebral Palsy - Children With Cancer ### Study Design - **Type**: OBSERVATIONAL - **Allocation**: N/A - **Intervention Model**: N/A - **Primary Purpose**: N/A ### Interventions ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Diagnoform test score **Secondary Outcomes** - KidScreen52 quality-of-life scale score. - Impedance measurement - Exercise test on ergometer - Anamnesis - 6-minute walk test - Energy expenditure index - Gluteal bridge - Shirado test - Sorensen test - Timed Up and Down Stairs (TUDS) test - Floor survey test - Mini Bestest : Each of the 14 tests is graded from 0 to 2.

Up to 4,000 patients with presumed acute ischemic stroke (AIS) will be followed for 90 days (or until death, if prior to 90 days). The end of the trial is defined as the date that all participants have completed their Day 90 assessment.This domain aim is to efficiently, reliably, and simultaneously, determine the comparative effectiveness of intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) using standard-dose intravenous tenecteplase (0.25 mg/kg body weight), vs. low-dose intravenous tenecteplase (0.18 mg/kg body weight) in all patients who present to hospital with acute ischemic stroke and are considered for intravenous thrombolysis. In addition, this domain also seeks to study standard-dose intravenous tenecteplase (0.25 mg/kg body weight), vs. low-dose intravenous tenecteplase (0.18 mg/kg body weight) vs. no TNK upfront with rescue IA TNK if necessary (in those eligible for emergency EVT) and no TNK upfront in those who have taken DOACs during the preceding 24 hours. This domain therefore seeks to generate more robust randomized evidence to guide clinicians in their decisions over the balance of risks and treatment with intravenous thrombolysis with tenecteplase wherever such evidence is currently insufficient.This domain will currently evaluate four research questions in relation to the use of IVT with tenecteplase:1. In patients with recent (24 hours) intake of a standard-dose direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC), how should IVT be used? - Use standard-dose (0.25 mg/kg body weight) or low-dose tenecteplase (0.18 mg/kg) or not at all.2. In patients planned to be treated with endovascular thrombectomy, how should tenecteplase be used? -Treat with IV tenecteplase (standard- or low-dose) or not at all.3. In any patient receiving IVT, what is the optimal dose of tenecteplase? - use standard-dose (0.25 mg/kg body weight) or low-dose tenecteplase (0.18 mg/kg).4. To what extent is the treatment effect of standard- vs. low-dose tenecteplase modified by key patient characteristics, such as diabetes, prior antiplatelet therapy, renal failure, or frailty, old age or having a heavy burden of cerebral small vessel disease on brain imaging. ### Conditions - Acute Ischemic Stroke AIS - Stroke Acute - Stroke, Acute, Stroke Ischemic ### Study Design - **Type**: INTERVENTIONAL - **Allocation**: RANDOMIZED - **Intervention Model**: PARALLEL - **Primary Purpose**: TREATMENT ### Interventions - Tenecteplase ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - A reduction of functional dependence analyzed across the whole distribution of outcomes assessed on the modified Rankin Scale (mRS), **Secondary Outcomes** - 90-day mortality - Proportion of participants with a Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) of 0-1 at Day 90. - Proportion of participants with a Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) of 0-2 at Day 90. - Health-related quality of life, as measured by the EQ-5D-5L at Day 90. - The frequencies of Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) from enrollment up to Day 4 - Symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage - Large parenchymal hemorrhage (PH-2) - Ordinal shift of 7 levels of mRS at 90 days - Proportion of participants achieving first pass (eTICI 2c or higher) reperfusion (when treated with EVT). - Proportion of participants achieving successful recanalization (revised arterial occlusive lesion [rAOL] score of 2b-3) at first angiographic acquisition (when treated with EVT). - Ambulatory status at discharge - Place of residence at 90 days - Imaging assessment (e.g., infarct size and edema volume) - Summative total length of hospital stay in the first 90-days after stroke onset ### Location - **Facility**: The George Institute for Global Health, Sydney, Barangaroo, NSW 2000, Australia @@

## Topical CBD's Effects on Soreness and Performance - **NCT ID**: NCT06320327 - **Study ID**: 80177 - **Status**: COMPLETED - **Start Date**: 2022-08-23 - **Completion Date**: 2023-04-30 - **Lead Sponsor**: Joseph Pastina ### Study Description Exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD) results from unaccustomed exercise and can lead to delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS). Impairments associated with EIMD and DOMS can result in moderate-to-severe discomfort and hindered performance. Recently, a compound derived from the cannabis plant, cannabidiol (CBD), has been used as a recovery tool for EIMD and DOMS. Despite the rising popularity of CBD products, their effectiveness in mitigating EIMD and DOMS is unknown. Specifically, to the investigators' knowledge, no clinical trials have been completed to assess the effects of topical CBD cream application on soreness, recovery and performance.Therefore, the purpose of the present study was to investigate the effects of CBD cream on DOMS and performance after an intensive lower-body exercise protocol. Specifically, the study's aims were:Aim 1: To assess the effect of topical CBD cream administration on muscle soreness following fatiguing exercise.Hypothesis 1: CBD cream would decrease perceived muscle soreness when compared to a placebo or control (no cream) group.Aim 2: To assess the effect of topical CBD cream administration on muscular performance following fatiguing exercise.Hypothesis 2: Recovery of muscular power would be quicker when CBD cream is applied, compared to a placebo or control (no cream) group.Aim 3: To assess if topical CBD cream has a localized (if any) or systemic effect on muscle soreness.Hypothesis 3: Improvements in muscle soreness would only be observed in localized muscles around where the CBD cream was applied. ### Conditions - Muscle Soreness ### Study Design - **Type**: INTERVENTIONAL - **Allocation**: RANDOMIZED - **Intervention Model**: PARALLEL - **Primary Purpose**: SUPPORTIVE_CARE ### Interventions - Cannabidiol cream - Placebo cream ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Vertical Jump Test **Secondary Outcomes** - Peak Isokinetic Torque Test - Pressure-Pain Threshold Test ### Location - **Facility**: Seaton Center Building, Lexington, Kentucky, 40502, United States @@

## Analysis of Trunk and Center of Mass Control Development During Gait in Children With Cerebral Palsy (VERTEBRAL) - **NCT ID**: NCT06320288 - **Study ID**: IRR-FLAVIGNY-2023-1 - **Status**: RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2023-09-20 - **Completion Date**: 2028-09 - **Lead Sponsor**: Union de Gestion des Etablissements des Caisses d'Assurance Maladie - Nord Est ### Study Description During the acquisition of posturokinetic abilities such as walking, postural control of the trunk is of paramount importance. Indeed, its development is strongly linked to the overall motor function of children. In cerebral palsy (CP), a term that refers to a set of motor disorders following a perinatal lesion, deficits in axial control are present from early childhood. These deficits are strongly correlated with the functional deficits observed in this population. In particular, during walking, deviations of the trunk (amplitudes, accelerations) are observed in the three planes of space. While recent literature increasingly questions the impact of trunk control deficit on the walking of children with CP, elements are still missing for a holistic understanding of the interaction between locomotor and postural disorders in children with CP. In particular, no study has focused on the deviations of trunk control and the center of mass (which is a global indicator of balance strategies) during the development and maturation of walking in children with CP. Therefore, the primary objective of this cross-sectional observational study will be to characterize the development of trunk control and center of mass during walking in children with CP. ### Conditions - Children With Cerebral Palsy ### Study Design - **Type**: OBSERVATIONAL - **Allocation**: N/A - **Intervention Model**: N/A - **Primary Purpose**: N/A ### Interventions ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Trunk and center-of-mass accelerations and acceleration variability **Secondary Outcomes** - Gait Variability Index - Trunk Control Measurement Scale score (TCMS) - Early Clinical Assessment of Balance score ### Location - **Facility**: Institut Régional de Médecine Physique et de Réadaptation, Nancy, N/A, 54000, France @@

More than half a million people (4-5% of emergency department patients) are tested for pulmonary embolism, although positive results are low. Imaging for PE testing exposes patients to radiation, is expensive, adds time to the emergency visit, and can lead to a false positive diagnoses. Existing protocols aimed at reducing unnecessary pulmonary embolism imaging are complex and seldom used by emergency physicians. Too many patients undergo unnecessary pulmonary embolism imaging.We have created a new tool (called Adjust-Unlikely) which could safely reduce pulmonary embolism imaging in Canada. Our research group composed of researchers, emergency physicians, and patients developed the Adjust-Unlikely clinical decision rule: a rule which has been customized for emergency physicians and emergency patients. Adjust-Unlikely is highly sensitive at the bedside, meaning there are very few false negative results.Our study aim is to prospectively validate Adjust-Unlikely pulmonary embolism testing in emergency patients with suspected pulmonary embolism. ### Conditions - Pulmonary Embolism - D-dimer - Diagnosis ### Study Design - **Type**: OBSERVATIONAL - **Allocation**: N/A - **Intervention Model**: N/A - **Primary Purpose**: N/A ### Interventions - Adjust-Unlikely ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Venous thrombosis **Secondary Outcomes** - Venous thrombosis - Index presentation Adjust-Unlikely testing results ### Location - **Facility**: Kingston Health Sciences Centre, Kingston, Ontario, K7L 2V7, Canada @@

## AI for Lung Cancer Risk Definition in Computed Tomography Screening Programs - **NCT ID**: NCT06320184 - **Study ID**: INT 0083/23 - **Status**: ACTIVE_NOT_RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2023-04-30 - **Completion Date**: 2026-04-30 - **Lead Sponsor**: Fondazione IRCCS Istituto Nazionale dei Tumori, Milano ### Study Description Low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) lung cancer (LC) screening can reduce mortality among heavy smokers, but there is a critical need to better identify people at higher risk and to reduce harms related to management of benign nodules. The most promising strategy is to combine novel tools to optimize clinical decisions and increase the benefit of screening.In this respect, the investigators already demonstrated that the combination of baseline LDCT features with a minimal invasive microRNA blood test was able to more precisely estimate the individual risk of developing LC. The investigators posit that additional immune-related and radiologic features can be integrated with the help of artificial intelligence (AI) to further implement LDCT screening strategies. The project will answer whether the combination of (bio)markers of different origin can predict LC development at baseline and over time, indicate which screen-detected lung nodules are likely to be malignant and ultimately reduce LC and all cause mortality. ### Conditions - Lung Cancer - Blood Biomarkers ### Study Design - **Type**: OBSERVATIONAL - **Allocation**: N/A - **Intervention Model**: N/A - **Primary Purpose**: N/A ### Interventions - Artificial Intelligence risk model ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Aim 1 **Secondary Outcomes** - Aim 2 - Aim 3 ### Location - **Facility**: Fondazione IRCCS Istituto Nazionale dei Tumori, Milan, N/A, 20133, Italy @@

## Dissecting the Molecular and Cellular Pathophysiology of Sarcopenic Obesity in the Elderly - **NCT ID**: NCT06320158 - **Study ID**: PNRR-MAD-2022-12376672 - **Status**: RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2023-05-22 - **Completion Date**: 2024-12-31 - **Lead Sponsor**: IRCCS San Raffaele ### Study Description Ageing is characterised by a change in body composition with a parallel decrease in muscle mass and an increase and central redistribution of fat. When drastically exacerbated, these two processes culminate in a condition known as sarcopenic obesity (SO). SO is characterised by the coexistence of obesity and sarcopenia (i.e. reduced muscle mass and function) and is a growing public health problem in the elderly. The health risks of obesity and sarcopenia act synergistically, maximising the risk of disability of OS. The molecular mechanisms underlying OS are largely unknown. Increased fat mass induces chronic systemic inflammation and alters the profiles of adipokines and hormones, promoting the development of sarcopenia. On the other hand, the reduction in muscle tissue (SM) typical of sarcopenia is characterised by an alteration in the metabolic properties of skeletal muscle with an increase in insulin resistance and a reduction in energy expenditure that favours the accumulation and dysfunction of adipose tissue (AT). The cellular alterations that would seem to underlie OS are: altered autophagy, cellular senescence, epigenetic and mitochondrial alterations and maladaptive activation of intra- and intercellular inflammatory circuits (e.g. cytokines, extracellular vesicles, dysfunctional circulating leukocytes). However, the interconnections between these mechanisms are still unclear. The impact of OS can be dramatic on the health and quality of life of those affected. Therefore, the identification of early biomarkers that can recognise overweight and obese individuals at risk of developing SO is of paramount importance. This would shed light on the heterogeneity of an otherwise homogeneous clinical condition, opening new horizons towards the conscious design of more personalised therapeutic strategies, allowing a more rational use of the limited resources available for the growing elderly population.The study design designed to achieve this aim is a cross-sectional observational study with an additional multicentre procedure lasting two years. ### Conditions - Sarcopenic Obesity ### Study Design - **Type**: OBSERVATIONAL - **Allocation**: N/A - **Intervention Model**: N/A - **Primary Purpose**: N/A ### Interventions - clinical evaluation of sarcopenic obesity ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Identifying new molecular markers in elderly patients with sarcopenic obesity **Secondary Outcomes** - Assessing the ability of new markers (identified in the pre-clinical phase of this project) to predict individual disease trajectories ### Location - **Facility**: Ospedale San Raffaele, Milan, N/A, 20132, Italy @@

Considering the self-management discussion as central for the achievement of health outcomes, Healthcare Providers may help patients make specific actions to obtain their desired goals.The current evidence suggest that Healthcare Professionals need to develop a more patient-centered and partnership-based approach based on the development and review of action plans, including the experiential asthma knowledge of patients and caregivers. From a practical perspective, the specialist (i.e. pulmunologists, allergologists, etc) has clear therapeutic targets to be reached in asthmatic patients: for example, improving the disease control, the spirometric values and asthma control test (ACT) score vs. pre-treatment evaluations represent the standard outcomes to reach (GINA 2019). However, as previously described, patients are more likely to achieve an improved clinical outcome when the treatment is driven by a personalized goal. This builds on the same principle as shared decision making between the physician and patient, recognizing both the personal motivation and the accountability on behalf of the patient (Hoskins et al. 2016).This study aims to evaluate if the identification of a personalized outcome allows patients to achieve a better control of asthma in terms of asthma control test (ACT) and asthma quality of life questionnaire (AQLQ). In addition, a set of clinical outcomes (i.e. forced expiratory volume in one second - FEV1, use of rescue therapy, night awakeness) will also be assessed. ### Conditions - Bronchial Asthma ### Study Design - **Type**: INTERVENTIONAL - **Allocation**: RANDOMIZED - **Intervention Model**: PARALLEL - **Primary Purpose**: OTHER ### Interventions - PDO Group ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Primary Outcome.

## Altering Default Mode Network Activity With Transcranial Focused Ultrasound to Reduce Depressive Symptoms - **NCT ID**: NCT06320028 - **Study ID**: 019782-00001 - **Status**: ACTIVE_NOT_RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2023-04-27 - **Completion Date**: 2024-06-03 - **Lead Sponsor**: University of Arizona ### Study Description Depression is a leading cause of disability worldwide, affecting roughly 21 million adults. Repetitive Negative Thought (RNT) has been identified as a potential maintaining factor in depression, such that those who exhibit higher degrees of RNT endorse greater symptoms. Research also suggests that the Default Mode Network (DMN), responsible for self-referential processing, plays an important role in depression wherein it has been linked to RNT. In depressed individuals, this network appears to be hyper-connected, or "too connected", within itself which, in turn, is thought to promote RNT.Half of depressed individuals are treatment-resistant, creating a critical need to identify more effective interventions derived from a better mechanistic understanding of the development and maintenance of depression. Non-invasive Transcranial-Focused Ultrasound Stimulation (tFUS) is promising for the treatment of depression. tFUS directs a low-intensity (nonthermal) focused ultrasound beam that passes safely through the skull. Compared to other noninvasive neuromodulation approaches, tFUS can target deeper brain regions with high spatial precision.The present study is an exploratory non-blinded single treatment study to investigate whether tFUS targeting a major hub of the DMN, the anterior-medial prefrontal cortex, can improve depression symptoms and reduce RNT. Twenty depressed individuals with high RNT (75th percentile) will complete up to eleven ultrasound sessions targeting the anterior medial prefrontal cortex, a hub of the brain's default mode network that has been found to be hyper-connected in depression. MRI scans will be obtained before the first and after the last ultrasound sessions. Based on previous literature, it is predicted that depression interview ratings and self-report symptoms will decrease after the intervention, and also that DMN connectivity will decrease following intervention. ### Conditions - Depressive Disorder, Major - Depression ### Study Design - **Type**: INTERVENTIONAL - **Allocation**: NA - **Intervention Model**: SINGLE_GROUP - **Primary Purpose**: TREATMENT ### Interventions - Non-Invasive Transcranial Focused Ultrasound ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - Beck Depression Inventory - II (BDI-II) - Perseverative Thinking Questionnaire (PTQ) - Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS) - Default Mode Network (DMN) Connectivity **Secondary Outcomes** - The Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) ### Location - **Facility**: University of Arizona, Tucson, Arizona, 85721, United States @@

## Relaxing Environment to Lower Anxiety During Onabotulinum Toxin Chemodenervation of the Bladder - **NCT ID**: NCT06319898 - **Study ID**: IRB00110787 - **Status**: NOT_YET_RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2024-05 - **Completion Date**: 2026-02 - **Lead Sponsor**: Wake Forest University Health Sciences ### Study Description Chemodenervation of the bladder with onabotulinum toxin A is an effective treatment option for patients with refractory urgency urinary incontinence (UUI). It is often performed as an office-based procedure under local anesthesia. Alternatively, it can be performed in the operating room under general anesthesia. The ability to receive intra-detrusor chemodenervation in the office allows patients to avoid the risks associated with general anesthesia and is significantly more cost effective. The procedure, however, is painful and can be anxiety provoking for patients; especially given that patients typically return every six to nine months for repeat injections. Relaxation and distraction techniques are one way to ease patients' anxiety before an office-based procedure. While we do not know exactly how anxiety provoking office bladder chemodenervation is for patients, we do know that anxiety disorders are highly prevalent in women with overactive bladder as a population.The purpose of this study is to investigate whether women with Urge urinary incontinence (UUI) who receive office intra-detrusor chemodenervation injections performed in a relaxing environment of lavender aromatherapy, calming music, dim lighting, and modest positioning (Relaxing Environment Package) will have decreased anxiety and pain as well as increased post-procedure satisfaction compared to patients who receive chemodenervation in a typical office environment. Also investigate whether exposure to the relaxing environment impacts the well-being of staff involved in these procedures. This study design is a randomized control trial. Women scheduled for office intra-detrusor chemodenervation at Atrium Health women's Care Urogynecology \& Pelvic Surgery - Mercy clinic will be invited to participate. Participants will be randomized to the relaxing environment package or the placebo group after informed consent is obtained and immediately before undergoing intra-detrusor chemodenervation.

The pilot study will investigate among Danish older adults whether text messaging is well-accepted by participants and feasible in terms of reducing 1) high-risk drinking and 2) commonly accompanying problems with daily functioning, social relationships, and mental and physical health. The pilot-trial will include n=60 adults aged 55-80 years who will receive alcohol-related text messages (within a secure app for data protection purposes) over 12 weeks. Assessments will include a baseline assessment and a post-assessment. ### Conditions - Hazardous Alcohol Use ### Study Design - **Type**: INTERVENTIONAL - **Allocation**: RANDOMIZED - **Intervention Model**: PARALLEL - **Primary Purpose**: PREVENTION ### Interventions - Text messaging ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - High-risk alcohol use (yes/no) **Secondary Outcomes** - WHOQOL-Bref (The World Health Organization Quality of Life Brief Version ) - OBSESSIVE-COMPULSIVE DRINKING SCALE (OCDS) - Drinker Inventory of Consequences (DrInC-2R) - Frequency of alcohol use - Amount of alcohol use - Heavy drinking days - User evaluation (tailor-made) - PHQ-9 (Patient Health Questionnaire-9 ) ### Location - **Facility**: N/A, N/A, N/A, N/A, N/A @@
## The Effects of Disulfiram (Antabuse®) on Visual Acuity in Patients With Retinal Degeneration - **NCT ID**: NCT06319872 - **Study ID**: STUDY00009118 - **Status**: NOT_YET_RECRUITING - **Start Date**: 2024-04-15 - **Completion Date**: 2025-04-15 - **Lead Sponsor**: University of Rochester ### Study Description Oral disulfiram (Antabuse®) has been shown to improve image-forming vision in animal models with retinal degeneration due to its ability to decrease Retinoic Acid synthesis and consequently reduce hyperactivity in the inner retina. The investigator will aim to evaluate the impact of oral disulfiram on the vision of patients with retinal degeneration who are being treated with the drug in the management of their concurrent alcohol use disorder. ### Conditions - Alcohol Use Disorder - Retinal Dystrophies - Age-Related Macular Degeneration - Retinitis Pigmentosa - Stargardt Disease ### Study Design - **Type**: INTERVENTIONAL - **Allocation**: NA - **Intervention Model**: SEQUENTIAL - **Primary Purpose**: TREATMENT ### Interventions - Oral disulfiram ### Outcomes **Primary Outcomes** - mean change in Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) score assessed by ETDRS **Secondary Outcomes** - mean change in total contrast sensitivity score using Pelli-Robson charts - mean change in light-adapted microperimetry sensitivity assessed using standard MAIA microperimetry equipment - mean change in outer retinal thickness assessed using Spectral Domain Optical Coherence Tomography (SD-OCT) - mean change in fundus autofluorescence (FAF) - number of participants with retinal anatomy changes assessed using fundus photos - mean change in visual field perimetry using full-field stimulus test - mean change in isopter constriction using Goldmann visual field - mean change in size of scotomas using Goldmann visual field - mean change in cone and rod latency assessed using Full field electroretinogram (ffERG) - mean change in cone and rod amplitude assessed using Full field electroretinogram (ffERG) - mean change in cone and rod latency assessed using multifocal electroretinogram (mfERG) - mean change in cone and rod amplitude assessed using multifocal electroretinogram (mfERG) - mean change in National Eye Institute-Visual Functioning Questionnaire 25 composite score. ### Location - **Facility**: Flaum Eye Institute, University of Rochester Medical Center, Rochester, New York, 14642, United States @@
