- **Status**: RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2023-10-01
- **Completion Date**: 2026-12-31
- **Lead Sponsor**: Jiang Feng
### Study Description
The response rate of HNSCC to immune checkpoint blockade was not satisfied. Improving the mPR rate of neoadjuvant immunotherapy through the combination with other treatment methods is an important way to further improve the prognosis of such patients. This study aims to explore the efficacy and safety of PD-1 monoclonal antibody with neoadjvant SBRT and chemotherapy. The triple mode not only can Increase the effectiveness of neoadjuvant therapy,meanwhile,the in situ tumor vaccine inoculation effect generated by enhancing the release of specific antigens after tumor radiotherapy with PD-1 monoclonal antibody achieves a sustained anti-tumor immune effect throughout the body, reducing postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The triple mode has important exploratory value in achieving high quality and long-term survival for patients, and may provides a more efficient mode for locally advanced HNSCC.

### Study Description
Smartphones and tablets are increasingly widespread mobile technological devices used for many purposes such as communication, transportation, entertainment, education and security. Increasing use of mobile technology leads to various symptoms such as insomnia, difficulty concentrating and anxiety, especially musculoskeletal problems. "Text neck" is a musculoskeletal problem seen in individuals who use smartphones and tablets for a long time due to increased head and neck flexion posture. It causes neck, back, shoulder, and head pain, insomnia, tingling and numbness in the hands. Implementation of exercise programs for both preventive and therapeutic purposes is one of the main goals in this picture dominated by posture and pain problems. Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) treatment technique; In the 1940s by H. Kabat and M. Knott, PNF was expressed as a means of facilitating neuromuscular responses by stimulation of proprioceptors. It is stated that it increases joint stabilization, strength, normal range of motion, endurance and circulation and is effective in improving coordination. Although PNF techniques have been used for different spinal problems, there is no study investigating PNF techniques in text neck syndrome. The study was aimed to compare the effect of a method including muscle relaxation in the anterior elevation direction and repetition techniques in the posterior depression direction from PNF neck patterns on pain intensity, neck normal range of motion, neck muscle endurance, posture and functionality in individuals with text neck syndrome with another method including ergonomic adjustments and simple cervical exercises recommended in the literature to be included in standard treatment.

### Study Description
To evaluate the feasibility, applicability, effectiveness, and health-economic value of the risk-based sequential screening modality for esophageal and gastric cancers, the investigators aim to initiate a community-based randomized controlled trial in Xun County, Henan Province, which is a high-risk region of upper gastrointestinal cancer (UGIC) in northern China.A total of 258 target villages from all the 11 communities (townships and streets) in Xun County will be randomly selected and assigned to the sequential screening group and the universal screening group at a ratio of 2:1 and the total sample size will be 21,000.In the sequential screening group, participants in the top 50% risk level (i.e., stratified as the high-risk subgroup) will be offered a standard upper gastrointestinal endoscopic screening. In contrast, all participants in the universal screening group will receive the endoscopic examination. The surveillance strategy for participants with screening-detected premalignant lesions in the sequential screening group will be tailored based on individualized risk assessment using endoscopic characteristics, pathological diagnosis, and biomarkers. Surveillance for participants in the universal screening group will adhere to current guidelines for UGIC screening and clinical treatment.Detection rates of upper gastrointestinal malignant lesions, early-stage malignant lesions and premalignant lesions, and health-economic indicators such as the unit cost per detected malignant lesions will be compared between the two groups.

## Interstitial Photodynamic Therapy Following Palliative Radiotherapy in Treating Patients With Inoperable Malignant Central Airway Obstruction
- **NCT ID**: NCT06306638
- **Study ID**: I-3901323
- **Status**: NOT_YET_RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2024-04-01
- **Completion Date**: 2029-04-01
- **Lead Sponsor**: Roswell Park Cancer Institute
### Study Description
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects of interstitial photodynamic therapy following palliative radiotherapy and how well it works in treating patients with inoperable malignant central airway obstruction. Patients who have advanced stage cancer tumors in the lung can often have the breathing passages to the lung partially or completely blocked. These tumors could be due to lung cancer or other cancers (e.g., renal, breast, kidney, etc.) that spread to the lung. This blockage puts the patient at a higher risk for respiratory failure, post-obstructive pneumonia, and prolonged hospitalizations. Treatment for these patients may include bronchoscopic intervention (such as mechanical removal, stenting, laser cauterization, or ballooning), radiation therapy with and without chemotherapy. While palliative x-ray radiotherapy may help in shrinking the tumor, high dose curative radiotherapy that can ablate (a localized, nonsurgical destruction) the tumor also has high risk to cause significant toxicity, including bleeding, abnormal connections or passageways between organs or vessels and abnormal scar tissue that can also produce airway obstruction. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is another possible treatment that can provide local control of the tumor. PDT consists of injecting a light sensitive drug (photosensitizer, PS) into the vein, waiting for the PS to accumulate in the tumor, and then activating it with a red laser light. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays, particles, or radioactive seeds to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Giving interstitial photodynamic therapy following palliative radiotherapy may improve tumor response and survival without the serious side effects that are associated with the typical high dose curative x-ray radiotherapy alone in patients with malignant central airway obstruction.

Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest remains a major public health problem, resulting in high mortality largely related to multiple organ failure and poor neurological outcomes due to brain anoxia. The pathophysiology of organ dysfunction after resuscitated out-of-hospital cardiac arrest involves ischemia-reperfusion processes. Remote ischemic conditioning is a therapeutic strategy used to protect organs against the detrimental effects of ischemia-reperfusion injury.The objective of the present trial is to determine whether remote ischemic conditioning performed early after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest can decrease mortality, or multiple organ failure and/or severe neurological failure.

## Ultrasound Operator Influence on Diagnostics With AI for Thyroid Nodules - Clinial Trial
- **NCT ID**: NCT06306599

- **Status**: COMPLETED
- **Start Date**: 2023-09-01
- **Completion Date**: 2023-11-04
- **Lead Sponsor**: Rigshospitalet, Denmark
### Study Description
This is a prospective clinical study aiming to test how the experience of the ultrasound operator influences the performance of AI-based (artificial intelligence-based) diagnostics when analysing thyroid nodules on ultrasound scans. The investigators set up an experiment with five stations, each with a patient with a thyroid nodule and an ultrasound machine with the deep learning based system S-Detect for Thyroid installed. 20 study participants where recruited: 8 medical students of novice ultrasound skill, 3 junior ENT (ear-nose-throat) registrars of intermediate ultrasound skill, and 9 senior ENT registrars experienced in ultrasound. The participants scanned all the patients and recorded their analyses of the nodules using the EUTIRADS (European thyroid imagining reporting and data system) system in three different ways: a analysis of their own, S-Detect's analysis, and an analysis combining the two previous.The hypothesis was that the AI system would perform equally well when between the participant groups. In addition, it was expected that the experienced participants would perform better than the students without AI help, and that the doctors would gain little from AI input, but that the students would have their performance improved by AI input.

## Improving Sleep and Mood in the Peri-menopause
- **NCT ID**: NCT06306404

- **Status**: NOT_YET_RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2024-06-01
- **Completion Date**: 2028-06-01
- **Lead Sponsor**: VU University of Amsterdam
### Study Description
The perimenopause is known as a vulnerable period for some women, with noticeable somatic and psychological issues. Aside from climacteric symptoms, insomnia and depression are common. About half of women during the peri-menopausal period experience sleep problems like problems falling asleep, awakening during the night and being unable to return to sleep. This is often attributed to vasomotor symptoms, but this is not the only reason of poor sleep (Joffe et al., 2010). Also, the peri-menopausal period is a critical time for the occurrence of new onset and recurrent depressions (Cohen et al., 2006). It has been suggested that fluctuations in estradiol may increase the risk for depression by altering neuronal functions in the brain. But there are also indications that the risk for depression increases by indirect effects, such as the increase in insomnia. Poor sleep has increasingly been recognized as the key modifiable factor affecting mental issues like depression (Van Someren, 2021). While antidepressants and psychotherapies continue to be the treatments of choice for depression, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for sleep (CBTi) for insomnia, preclinical and clinical data support the benefits of estrogen-based therapies to improve mood, sleep and other menopause-related symptoms (Gordon et al. 2018). Transdermal estradiol patches, which provide a stable release of estradiol and lead to more stable blood levels, have been suggested to have a positive effect on sleep (Joffe et al., 2020) and depressive symptoms (Gordon et al., 2018) in randomized controlled trials. However, it is currently unclear if the relation between improvement in mood and estradiol patches is mediated by improvement in sleep problems, and if the effect of estradiol patches on sleep problems is more effective during peri-menopause than the current evidence-based sleep interventions of CBTi, preferably in combination with Circadian Rhythm Support (CRS). The aim of the study is to pinpoint the determinants of complaints about sleep and mood and how they respond to Menopausal Hormone Treatment (MHT) with and without the addition of a guided eHealth sleep intervention that combines CBTi + CRS.Measurements will be conducted at baseline (T0), 2 months (T1) and 4 months (T3), with questionnaires, sleep measurements (EEG sleepband and actigraph) and skin conductance (to measure hot flushes). Participants will be recruited via www.slaapregister.nl and via OLVG outpatient clinic population of peri-menopausal women seeking help for climacteric complaints (like hot flushes, feeling bloated, increase in weight), including sleep problems. The participants are adults between 40-55 years old, with an Insomnia Severity Index score ≥10 and Climacteric Green Scale score ≥ 13.They have the self-considered capability to complete online questionnaires and diaries in Dutch.The intervention will be MHT (estradiol transdermal patches 50 mcg (Systen), in combination with 200 mg progesterone (Utrogestan tablets for 2 weeks, adjusted to the menstrual cycle to prevent endometrium carcinoma according to the international MHT guidelines), with and without the addition of a guided eHealth sleep intervention that combines CBTi + CRS.

- **Lead Sponsor**: Peking University
### Study Description
Treatment of craniofacial deformities is a significant topic in oral and maxillofacial surgery, and autologous fat grafting has become one of the main methods for treating facial concave deformities. However, the instability of its treatment effect has always been a bottleneck in this field, mainly due to the uncertain absorption rate of transplanted fat. This project aims to use advanced the 3dMD face system (3dMD) (3dMD Inc, Atlanta, Ga) technology to precisely measure the facial volume changes before and after autologous fat grafting to address this issue. By performing autologous fat grafting surgery on 100 patients with craniofacial deformities that meet the research criteria, 3dMD technology will be used for facial three-dimensional scanning preoperatively, immediately postoperatively, and at six months postoperatively to obtain facial volume data. Then, through precise data analysis, we will calculate the fat absorption rate and study the effects of individual factors on treatment outcomes through correlation regression analysis.

## Effects of Robot-Assisted Rehabilitation on Upper Extremity Functions in Chronic Stroke

- **Status**: RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2024-03-07
- **Completion Date**: 2024-05-14

### Study Description
The most common problem caused by stroke is motor activity limitation that reduces muscle movement and mobility. But stroke can also lead to sensory and cognitive impairment. Additionally, the ability to independently carry out activities of daily living and participate in social and community life is greatly reduced. Up to 85% of stroke patients experience hemiparesis immediately after stroke, while 55% to 75% of survivors continue to experience reduced quality of life with motor impairments.It requires long-term physical rehabilitation to achieve functional recovery in the upper extremity, maximum independence and the highest possible quality of life. Different methods can be used to achieve these results, but there is no clear evidence yet as to which treatment method gives the best results. Scientific evidence shows that a multifactorial approach and high-intensity treatment accelerates the motor recovery of the upper extremities in stroke rehabilitation. Passive and active upper extremity movements appear to increase motor recovery due to their effects on somatosensory input, motor planning, soft tissue properties and spasticity.In recent years, robotic devices have emerged that have been proven to improve the motor performance of the upper extremity in chronic stroke patients. There are also studies showing that robotic device-assisted upper extremity therapy can contribute to the development of sensorimotor skills in plegic patients. However, in the current literature, there is still a need for randomized controlled studies in this field. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of robot-assisted therapy on upper extremity functions and daily living activities in the rehabilitation of chronic stroke patients. After the demographic data of the cases in both groups are obtained, evaluations will be made before the study. Then, the study group will receive conventional physiotherapy in a single session of 45 minutes a day, 3 days a week for 4 weeks, and in addition robot-assisted therapy with the ReoGo Upper Extremity Exoskeleton Robot in a single session of 60 minutes a day, 5 days a week for 4 weeks. The control group will receive only conventional physiotherapy in a single session of 45 minutes a day, 3 days a week for 4 weeks. The initial evaluations will be repeated after the end of the treatment period.

### Study Description
Up to 650,000 people in Brazil are living with chronic hepatitis c virus (HCV) infection. Hepatitis C is a silent disease, and up to 20% of cases can progress to liver cirrhosis and its complications. Rapid tests for diagnosis of HCV infection and non-invasive methods for detecting liver cirrhosis are available in the Brazilian Public Health System. Additionally, safe and highly effective drugs (direct-acting antivirals, DAAs) have been delivered for free for hepatitis C treatment by the Brazilian Unified Health System (Sistema Único de Saúde, SUS) since 2015. Sustained virological response (SVR) rates with DAAs in studies conducted in Brazil and Latin America were higher than 90%. Despite the availability of rapid tests for early diagnosis and effective drugs, the HCV continuum of care remains deficient in Brazil. It is estimated that only 10% of individuals known to have hepatitis C achieve HCV cure (SVR). This is explained by multiple barriers from diagnosis to treatment access, such as low rates of population screening (HCVST are not available in Brazil) and few available slots in tertiary centers for hepatitis C treatment by specialists. International studies have described that SVR rates by simplified hepatitis C treatment performed by non-specialists in the Primary Care System were similar to those treated in tertiary centers by specialists (standard-of-care). However, the optimal strategy for managing hepatitis C within the Brazilian-SUS remains unclear.This project aims to evaluate the improve of the HCV continuum of care by a implementation of a test-and-treat strategy in the Primary Care System in Brazil. The project consists of two parallel studies (and a sub-study).The project consists of two parallel studies (and a sub-study). Study I is a population-based cross-sectional screening study using rapid tests to determine the prevalence of HCV infection in people attending a Basic Health Care Unit. The sub-study associated with Study I is a cross-sectional study to assess the usability of a self-test for the detection of HCV antibodies in oral fluid (participants included in Study I). Study II is a phase IV open-label randomized clinical trial to evaluate the non-inferiority of simplified and decentralized hepatitis C treatment ("Simplified-and-Decentralized (SD) HCV treatment"; experimental arm) compared to specialist reference treatment ("Standard-of-Care (SC) HCV treatment"; control arm) within the SUS.

### Study Description
Only a small fraction of youth who are beginning to experience behavioral health problems and use alcohol or illicit drugs receive needed treatment services due to the lack of accessible, effective early intervention resources. The goal of this clinical trial is to compare a personalized brief web-based early intervention, eHealth Personalized Approach for Change Efficacy (ePACE), in which youth are offered choices regarding intervention content and desired level of engagement, to a "fixed", non-tailored brief intervention, eHealth Fixed Approach for Change Efficacy (eFACE) for adolescents with mild/moderate substance use and common co-occurring problems. Both ePACE and eFACE include a multi-problem screener that guides youths through a set of key integrated behavior change and counseling modules providing a cohesive focus on these four problem domains: drug abuse, interpersonal relations, negative emotions and stress. The main questions the trial aims to answer are:* Are substance use and co-occurring problem outcomes for ePACE and eFACE are superior to those for a waitlist comparison group (WC)* Are outcomes for ePACE are superior to those for eFACE* Are the direct effects of ePACE and eFACE (i.e., the improvements in substance use and co-occurring problem outcomes) associated with improvements in areas of functioning and new skills that are hypothesized to produce change -- that is, are the improvements shown in the ePACE and eFACE groups due to the mechanisms by which change is hypothesized to occur Participants in ePACE and eFACE will complete a baseline assessment prior to engaging in the intervention to which they are assigned and will complete post-intervention assessments 3 months and 6 months later.

### Study Description
Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a chronic, recurring and potentially life-threatening illness that affects up to 10% of the population across the globe.Increasing evidence indicates a clear link between immune dysfunction and MDD.Moreover, an activation of inflammatory pathways is associated to a lack of clinical response to antidepressants. Thus, the regulation of inflammation represents a potential approach to modulate the link between the living environment and antidepressant outcome. Light therapy combined with sleep deprivation hastens recovery, with benefits that can be perceived by patients during the first week of treatment. Alteration of the sleep-wake cycle and of sleep structure are core symptoms of MDD.The aims of the present project are (i) to show that neural plasticity and the environmental context are moderating factors of the therapeutic outcome of immune modulation and (ii) to exploit their interplay to set up novel and effective therapeutic strategies for MDD.This is a observational prospective study with non-invasive add-on procedures (Magnetic Resonance without contrast). In this study, 60 patients with a depressive episode in course of MDD and treated with a chronobiological intervention including total sleep deprivation (TSD) + light therapy (LT), as performed in clinical practice, will be studied. All participants enrolled in the study will receive Treatment As Usual (TAU), i.e., pharmacotherapy, chronobiological intervention plus clinical management. Drug prescription will be performed during the clinical management sessions.The study will have a total duration of 24 months. Each subject will participate in the study for 6 months, will undergo Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and clinical evaluation at baseline, after one week of chronobiological treatment and at 6 months follow-up.

## Inflammatory Control of Antidepressant Efficacy: a Pharmaco-epigenetic Approach

- **Status**: RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2021-05-18

### Study Description
Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a chronic, recurring and potentially life-threatening illness that affects up to 10% of the population across the globe.It posits that the increase in serotonin levels induced by Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs) does not affect mood per se, but enhances brain plasticity and thus amplifies the influence of the environment on the individual. Thus, SSRI treatment has not a univocal effect but, in a favorable environment, it would lead to a reduction of symptoms while in a stressful environment might lead to a worse prognosis.Such innovative view opens new perspectives on how to improve SSRI efficacy by controlling the environment. However, often it is not possible to act on the quality of the living environment because of constraints due to patient's personal history and unchangeable life circumstances. In these cases, the pharmacological modulation of the factors underlying the link between living environment and SSRI efficacy represents a novel and desirable strategy to improve treatment outcome even in patients living in adverse conditions, which are very common in depressed patients. Inflammatory levels are markedly affected by the socioeconomic status and thus by the quality of the living environment. The hypothesis of the present project is that inflammation mediates the influence of the environment on SSRI outcome.Therefore, the control of inflammatory levels is a promising strategy to improve treatment efficacy and overcome the limited SSRI efficacy, especially when administered in patients living in adverse conditions. A further hypothesis is that the influence of the environment on inflammation, in turn affecting SSRI efficacy, occurs through epigenetic modifications. Therefore, the project aims at developing a pharmaco-epigenetic approach as effective treatment for MDD. In addition, through neuroimaging investigations, it will provide important information about functional and structural brain modifications associated to SSRI efficacy in patients.Both males and females will be considered because MDD is twice as common in women than men, suggesting that different mechanisms may underlie the psychopathology in the two sexes.

## Effect of Vitamin C on Pain Reduction After an Emergency Department Visit
- **NCT ID**: NCT06306183
- **Study ID**: 2024-2829
- **Status**: NOT_YET_RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2024-11
- **Completion Date**: 2028-03
- **Lead Sponsor**: Hopital du Sacre-Coeur de Montreal
### Study Description
Emergency department (ED) clinicians often prescribe anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) to manage acute musculoskeletal (MSK) pain (e.g.: fracture, sprain, back pain). However, even short-term NSAIDs use can have significant gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, MSK and renal adverse effects. For this reason, some patients cannot take or tolerate NSAIDs. Recent evidence has shown that vitamin C has some analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties particularly in postoperative context and prevent specific types of chronic pain. Furthermore, vitamin C is safe and associated with very few adverse events. The primary objective of this study is to determine whether vitamin C can reduce pain intensity during a seven-day period following an ED visit for acute MSK pain.The investigators propose to compare two groups of patients, one receiving 900 mg of vitamin C to another receiving a placebo, twice a day for seven days. Both groups will consume acetaminophen slow release 650 mg two pills every eight hours regularly. Naproxen 500 mg (NSAID) will be used as a rescue medication if the patient's pain is not relieved. Participants will be ≥18 years of age, treated in ED for acute MSK pain present for less than 48 hours with pain intensity at triage of ≥ 4 on a 0-10 numeric rating scale, and discharged by an ED clinician with an NSAIDs prescription without opioids. The level of pain intensity during a seven-day period will be assessed daily using an electronic or paper diary, as well as pain relief, pain medication consumption, and adverse events. Three months after the injury, participants will also be contacted to assess the presence of chronic pain. The investigators hypothesized that vitamin C will reduce pain intensity and chronic pain development at three months.This research could provide a safe alternative to patients who are unable to take NSAIDs. It may also contribute to the reduction of the burden associated with chronic pain development.

- **Lead Sponsor**: Hospital for Special Surgery, New York
### Study Description
Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) is a rare and often debilitating chronic pain condition whereby individuals may experience extreme sensitivity, discoloration, and swelling of the affected area -- along with numerous other painful symptoms. There are currently a limited number of treatment options available to those suffering with the condition, with various treatments including nerve blocks, neuropathic medications, and desensitization physical therapy modules. There is budding interesting in the role naltrexone, an opiate antagonist, may play in the pain management of CRPS when prescribed in very low doses. This study aims to collect preliminary data on pain scores, symptom severity, and side-effects in patients with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome randomized to receive low dose naltrexone or placebo capsules. Enrollment of 40 patients total will occur over two years from study start to study end. Each patient will be randomized to receive placebo capsules or active low dose naltrexone capsules, with both the patient and treating clinician blind to the randomization. Each patient will be actively enrolled in the study for six months and will take the medication daily at the instructed dose for the respective duration of time. Following the initial visit and study enrollment, the investigators are asking each patient to return for three (3) in-person follow-up office visits. These office visits will occur 1 month after the patient starts the medication, 3 months afterwards, and 6 months afterwards. The final 6-month office visit will mark the conclusion of the patient's active participation in the study.

## Early-phase Telecare Programs for Minor Stroke
- **NCT ID**: NCT06306144
- **Study ID**: 69HCL23_0691
- **Status**: NOT_YET_RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2024-07-01
- **Completion Date**: 2027-07-01
- **Lead Sponsor**: Hospices Civils de Lyon
### Study Description
Minor strokes (few acute neurological symptoms ; NIHSS score \<5), represent almost 65% of cerebrovascular ischemic events. The increasing incidence of stroke in people under 65, together with advances in diagnostic and revascularization techniques, mean that post-stroke life expectancy is now in the order of decades. Most patients with minor stroke are rapidly discharged from hospital, with follow-up focused on secondary prevention and they are offered little or no rehabilitation.However, up to 70% of patients with minor stroke experience difficulties resuming their social or professional activities, which can lead to social and economic disruption (delayed/compromised return to work) and an increased risk of depression. While some care recommendations exist for this population, in France there is no consensus nor identified care pathway for follow-up assessment or management of these patients. Furthermore, existing services are unevenly distributed across the country, and research into the effectiveness of rehabilitation is still scarce, leading to uncertainty as to which interventions should be prioritized to decrease difficulties related to cognitive impairment.Since there are currently no rehabilitation proposals in France for patients with mild cognitive impairment after mild stroke, in this trial the investigaror will investigate the effectiveness of two six-week telerehabilitation programs each consisting of a weekly session supervised by a therapist and a self-rehabilitation session. The aim of this multicenter randomized controlled trial is the evaluate the relevance and feasibility of early identification of patients eligible for a cognition-focused management proposal and the efficacy of two telecare programs, (a) psychoeducation and (b) computerized cognitive rehabilitation.

### Study Description
The purpose of this clinical study should be that, in the context of planned resections of glial brain tumors, pieces of tissue (biopsies) are removed from the tumor at several specific locations before the actual tumor resection takes place.The aim of these biopsies in advance to the actual tumor resection will be to receive tumor tissue samples not altered in such a way that it is no longer adequate for further treatment. If not adequate, a so-called "undergrading" could occur, which means that the biological structure of the tumor is misjudged and further therapy does not achieve the desired effect in the patient.On the one hand, certain tumor regions can drift due to a "brain shift" which leads to inaccurate tissue removal, and on the other hand samples are not altered by pressure or bleeding.To carry out these biopsies, a robot positioning device (AutoGuide®) will be used that has already been approved and tested for this type of intervention. The use of the AutoGuide® is intended to ensure that the tumor sample is taken with the greatest possible precision.

### Study Description
A variety of biomechanical gait modification interventions can elevate knee loading and improve knee symptoms in knee osteoarthritis patients. However, there was a lack of acceptability and adherence regarding modification interventions without any explanation.Thus, this study investigates the feasibility and acceptability of foot insoles as a gait modification tool among Saudi Arabian knee osteoarthritis patients and physiotherapists.This study aims to answer the following:* Which gait modification intervention is most likely to be implemented in Saudi Arabia (SA) clinical practice, taking context, patients' clinical and research evidence into consideration?* In Saudi Arabia, can this proposed foot-insole intervention be implemented? Is there sufficient experience among physiotherapists regarding gait modification to deliver it, and will patients engage with it? How can KOA rehabilitation outcomes be evaluated in the future?The participants will be conducted over three phases:1. The patients' interview and therapists' focus group discussion will be used to examine KOA patients' and clinicians' perspectives on enabling and accepting gait modifications in phase 1.2. The feasibility study will explore how a small number of KOA patients tolerate gait modifications and consider the most relevant outcome measures, such as pain and function, in phase (2).3. A small group of knee osteoarthritis patients and their physiotherapists who participated in phase (2) will be asked to participate in a descriptive survey in phase (3). To examine the acceptability and feasibility of the study intervention in phase (2).

### Study Description
Patients scheduled for elective coronary angiography due to chronic coronary syndrome are recruited at admission to hospital before the coronary anatomy is known. Immediately after coronary angiography measures thermo-dilution derived flow indices are obtained in the left left anterior descending artery (LAD). The patients are followed through telephone-calls and medical records at 1 and 2 years after inclusion and at completion of the study. The hypothesis is that elevated index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR),(\>25) is associated with all-cause death, myocardial infarction (MI) and hospitalization due to congestive heart failure (CHF).The primary analysis is the relationship between IMR and the composite outcome all-cause death, MI and hospitalization due to CHF.

## A New Treatment for Chronic Pain Combining Neuromodulation, Computer Assisted Training and Telemonitoring
- **NCT ID**: NCT06306053
- **Study ID**: 2022/ST/217
- **Status**: NOT_YET_RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2024-04-01
- **Completion Date**: 2026-04-30
- **Lead Sponsor**: ASST Santi Paolo e Carlo
### Study Description
Chronic pain (CP) is a leading cause of medical disability, healthcare expenditure, and reduced psychological well-being. Given the limited mobility, travel burden, and cost, access to care can be problematic for patients suffering from this disease, driving the recent shift toward care through telehealth programs. Given the complex interrelationship of physical and psychosocial aspects related to chronic pain, in this project the investigators propose to validate and investigate the effectiveness of new integrated health interventions by combining the technique of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), complementary therapies and telemonitoring. The investigators hypothesize that this novel combined approach will provide a more effective strategy to overcome the classic barriers of pharmacological treatments and access to healthcare due to lack of mobility. To do this, the investigators will rely on a previously developed integrated platform that enables effective delivery of non-pharmacological interventions and outcome assessment. Many patients do not benefit from pharmacological and invasive treatments, leading to the development of alternative therapeutic options such as non-invasive brain stimulation (e.g. tDCS) and complementary interventions to improve physical and psychological well-being. These complementary interventions reduced pain intensity and psychological distress by improving individuals' ability to manage and cope with their pain. However, due to the multiple co-occurring factors associated with chronic pain, a multidisciplinary and integrated treatment approach is challenging. Technology ecosystems can be a reliable tool to achieve such a diverse personalized approach and evaluate their results. In a previous project, the investigators developed PainRE-Life, a dynamic and integrated technology ecosystem to enable continuity of care for CP patients, including personalized applications, training tools and telemonitoring tools for outcome assessment.

## The Impact of Web-Based Education on Self-Care Power, Self-Efficacy, and Quality of Life in Knee Arthroplasty Patients.

### Study Description
The knee joint, which we use actively every day, is the largest joint in our body that bears the weight, allowing various movements such as walking, running, squatting, and standing. It involves the largest load-bearing structures in the body, including bones, cartilage, surrounding muscles, and ligaments, facilitating the mobilization of the joint. Due to constant use, the knee joint is susceptible to injuries and wear. Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) surgery involves replacing a degenerated joint surface, often due to conditions like osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis, with a metal or polyethylene prosthesis. TKA, a widely used and highly successful surgical intervention in recent years, reduces pain, enhances functional range of motion, and improves independence and quality of life. Severe pain following TKA surgery restricts the movement of the knee joint and daily life activities, leading to the patient's inadequacy in self-care. Patients undergoing TKA surgery often face a lack of information after discharge. This lack of knowledge, coupled with uncertainty about the disease, limits the patient's self-efficacy. As the self-care power diminishes for patients struggling with daily life activities, their self-efficacy is negatively affected. The continuity of education becomes crucial since the verbal and written instructions given after surgery may not be sustained, causing a gradual decline in an individual's self-efficacy. As seen in the literature, studies have shown that postoperative pain, swelling, joint stiffness, fear, and movement limitations negatively impact the quality of life for patients undergoing TKA. Consequently, the self-care capacity, self-efficacy levels, and quality of life for individuals who have undergone TKA are adversely affected, as indicated in the literature.Ensuring continuity of care at home is crucial not only during the early postoperative period in the clinic but also after discharge. The nurse plays a significant role as an educator/advisor after discharge. The nurse provides counseling to patients discharged after Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) on pain management, disease progression, rehabilitation process, exercises, and considerations during daily activities (such as walking, bathing, toileting). Additionally, the nurse offers guidance on late-stage complications that may arise at home due to surgery and situations requiring hospitalization. While web-based educational interventions have been conducted for various patient groups, a web-based education program specifically for TKA surgery has not been identified. Having web-based post-TKA patient education allows continuous monitoring, assesses attendance and effectiveness remotely, and enables individuals to convey requests and questions to researchers through live support, ultimately enhancing the effectiveness of education. This approach is believed to prevent complications, reduce patient care costs and readmissions, increase patients' self-sufficiency in self-care, and consequently elevate their self-efficacy levels and quality of life. Close monitoring of postoperative patients is expected to improve their quality of life and self-care abilities, leading to increased satisfaction with healthcare services.

## Evaluation of EXL01, a New Live Biotherapeutic Product to Prevent Recurrence of Clostridioides Difficile Infection in High-risk Patients
- **NCT ID**: NCT06306014
- **Study ID**: 69HCL22_980
- **Status**: NOT_YET_RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2024-04-01

### Study Description
Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) is the leading cause of nosocomial diarrhea in Europe, with over 120,000 cases and almost 3,700 deaths per year. This infection is characterized by a high risk of recurrence after cure, ranging from almost 20% after a first episode to over 60% after 2 recurrences, or in the case of specific risk factors.Currently, first-line treatment of CDI is based on oral antibiotics such as fidaxomicin or vancomycin. These antibiotic treatments, which are effective in 89% and 86% of first-episode cases respectively, do not correct the microbiological imbalance underlying the onset of CDI and may, on the contrary, encourage recurrence by contributing to the maintenance of a deleterious change in the microbiota (dysbiosis) through the elimination of bacteria other than C. difficile, due to their spectrum of activity. In a number of patients, this ecological imbalance can no longer be restored after antibiotic treatment, leading to multiple recurrences of CDI.In this context, fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) has been validated for over 10 years for the prevention of recurrence in multi-recurrent CDI. The principle of FMT is based on the use of a pharmaceutical preparation made from the stool of a healthy donor, administered within the digestive tract of a patient for therapeutic purposes.Currently, in the case of multiple recurrences, it is the recommended first-line treatment (from 2 recurrences) and the most effective, with a clinical efficacy preventing recurrence of CDI in 69% to 89% of cases at 8 weeks post-treatment, with a good safety profile.Among the microbial factors promoting CDI, the loss of the bacterial species Faecalibacterium prausnitzii constitutes a specific therapeutic target. F. prausnitzii is a commensal bacterium of the human gut, making up nearly 5% of the fecal microbiota, and has been shown to be associated with an individual's state of health. A drop in its relative abundance is associated with an increased risk of numerous diseases, such as Crohn's disease and colorectal cancer. In CDI, F prausnitzii is greatly diminished. Moreover, low abundance of F. prausnitzii is predictive of C. difficile recurrence. Its abundance in stools is increased after FMT and is also predictive of response to treatment. From a pathophysiological point of view, one of the preventive effects of F. prausnitzii on recurrence would be mediated by its ability to hydrolyze the bile acids involved in the germination of C. difficile spores.The aim of this Phase I/II trial is to assess the efficacy and safety of oral administration of EXL01, a single isolated unmodified strain of F. prausnitzii, in preventing CDI recurrence in high-risk patients at W8. The study will be conducted in 2 parts. The phase I (Part A) is planned to include 6 patients. The phase II (Part B) will include 50 patients in two arms (25 patients respectively in the placebo and EXL01 arm).

- **Start Date**: 2024-04-01
- **Completion Date**: 2025-12-31
- **Lead Sponsor**: Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center
### Study Description
This clinical trial studies how well new adhesive-based sensors that stick to the skin (transcutaneous) work in detecting cancer-related long-term arm swelling (lymphedema). For many patients, lymphedema s painful, unsightly, and weakening. The early signs of lymphedema are hard to see, and sometimes it is only diagnosed by hospital equipment at larger centers. Treating lymphedema early is usually more successful than trying to treat in later stages. The adhesive-based sensors used in this study work by using techniques called photoplethysmography (PPG) and bioimpedance (BI). PPG is an optical technique that can be used to detect blood volume changes in tissue. BI evaluates how tissue responds to an externally applied electrical current. This study may assist researchers in distinguishing participants with lymphedema in comparison to participants without lymphedema, and develop a way for patients to check for lymphedema at home.

- **Lead Sponsor**: Zhang Bo
### Study Description
Hyperthyroidism is an endocrine disease with a high incidence rate, and some patients are difficult to effectively control the condition after long-term drug treatment, and the disease recurs, forming refractory hyperthyroidism. The search for a new safe, effective and minimally invasive treatment has become a research hotspot. Ultrasound-guided radiofrequency ablation is a hot spot in clinical research due to its advantages of low trauma, high safety, precise inactivation of lesions, and multiple ablation. However, there is no unified standard for the number and scope of ablation in the treatment of refractory hyperthyroidism by radiofrequency ablation, and there is a lack of data on the effectiveness and safety of the treatment with large samples and long-term effects. Therefore, how to establish a standardized treatment strategy and appropriate plan for ablation of refractory hyperthyroidism based on clinical practice is an urgent problem to be solved. The purpose of this study was to prospectively include refractory hyperthyroidism for ultrasound-guided radiofrequency ablation, and to evaluate the efficacy and safety of hyperthyroidism ablation by comparing the changes in symptoms and signs, serology, and imaging of patients before and after ablation. The relevant factors affecting the efficacy of ablation were analyzed and the most appropriate ablation scope was determined. Radiofrequency ablation was retrospectively compared with traditional surgery and 131I treatment, and the near- and medium-term treatment effects, incidence of adverse reactions and complications, as well as the economic benefits and sociopsychological differences of the three treatment methods were compared.The expected outcome of this study is to establish a research cohort of hyperthyroidism ablation based on a large sample population, and to establish the most appropriate and effective regimen for radiofrequency ablation of refractory hyperthyroidism compared with traditional surgery and 131I treatment with safety and near- and medium-term efficacy. The Department of Ultrasound Medicine of China-Japan Friendship Hospital has accumulated rich experience in the ablation treatment of benign and malignant thyroid nodules and hyperthyroidism, and has completed more than 200 cases of thyroid ablation in the past two years. Under the leadership of Professor Zhang Bo, the research team of this project has conducted a number of clinical studies on the ultrasound diagnosis and treatment of thyroid diseases, presided over and participated in more than 20 national, provincial and university-level scientific research courses, and the first author or corresponding author wrote more than 70 articles in related fields, which laid a solid research foundation for the conduct of this study.

## Effectiveness of a Self-management Program After Traumatic Injury
- **NCT ID**: NCT06305819
- **Study ID**: 2023057
- **Status**: RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2024-01-01
- **Completion Date**: 2030-12-31
- **Lead Sponsor**: Oslo University Hospital
### Study Description
Traumatic injuries, defined as a physical injury with sudden onset, are a leading cause to disability and impaired health. Persons who sustain a traumatic injury often report problems in daily life activities and reduced quality of life, which may limit participation in work/studies, leisure activities and family life. Consequently, complex rehabilitation and support is recommended in National Trauma guidelines due to the often long-lasting physical and psychological sequela of the injury.The main goal of this study is to determine the effectiveness of a self-management support program delivered to persons with a moderate or severe traumatic injury in the sub-acute phase of recovery (i.e. 3-4 months after injury). The self-management program aims to enhance patients' self-efficacy by building skills and self-management strategies to cope with injury-related consequences. The program has a group-based format and consists of eight sessions comprising psychoeducation, skill mastery and sharing of experiences. The participants who will be included in the study must be between 18 and 70 years, be residing in the southeast region of Norway, be admitted to Oslo University hospital or transferred from local hospital within 72 hours after injury, have at least a two-day hospital stay, and be able to read and understand Norwegian language. Participants will be randomly assigned to either intervention or control group. A group of patients will also be able to self-select if they want to receive the self-management support program or be in the control group. The latter is an explorative part of the study to evaluate the influence of patients' treatment-preferences on the study outcomes. Participants in the control group will receive treatment as usual.

### Study Description
Kawasaki disease (KD) is currently the leading cause of acquired heart diseases in children in developed countries. Cardiac involvement is the main determinant of the long-term prognosis of these patients, as coronary aneurisms (CAAs) may lead to ischemic heart disease and even sudden death. The current standard of care for KD has consistently reduced CAAs frequency from 25-30% to about 5%. Unfortunately, 10-20% of KD patients results resistant to standard treatment leading to a major risk of cardiac complications. Thus, scoring systems have been constructed in order to identify patients likely to be resistant to IVIG and who may benefit from more aggressive initial therapy. Different scoring scales developed by Kobayashi, Egami et Sano had shown a good sensitivity (77-86%) and specificity (67-86%) in predicting IVIG unresponsiveness in Japanese populations. However, their predictive value was not confirmed by subsequent studies in different ethnic populations. Recently, the French Kawanet group have proposed a IVIG unresponsiveness score that provided good sensitivity and acceptable specificity in a non-Asian KD population even if it was not subsequent validated by an external study. In our study population, the achievement of specificity and sensitivity values for both scores consistent with those reported by the original studies (sensitivity 70% and specificity 80% for Kobayashi and sensitivity 77% and specificity 60% for Kawanet), will be considered a success.

## Bipolar Androgen Therapy to Restore Sensitivity to Androgen Deprivation Therapy for Patients With Metastatic Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer
- **NCT ID**: NCT06305598
- **Study ID**: I-3298823
- **Status**: RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2024-06-01
- **Completion Date**: 2027-04-01
- **Lead Sponsor**: Roswell Park Cancer Institute
### Study Description
This phase I trial tests the change in androgen receptor sensitivity, side effects and effectiveness of bipolar androgen therapy, using testosterone, in patients with castration resistant prostate cancer that has spread to other places is the body (metastatic). Bipolar androgen therapy is the regulation of testosterone between castration levels (lower than what would be normally present) and supraphysiological levels (amounts greater than normally found in the body). This may suppress cancer cell growth, which reduces prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels and may delay cancer progression.

## Can a Novel Manual Therapy Technique Help Relieve Stress? Assessing Effects of Primal Reflex Release on the Body's Stress Response
- **NCT ID**: NCT06305585
- **Study ID**: IRB# 23-214
- **Status**: NOT_YET_RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2024-03
- **Completion Date**: 2025-03
- **Lead Sponsor**: University of Idaho
### Study Description
Stress, when left unmanaged, can have detrimental effects on both physical and mental health, contributing to conditions such as high blood pressure, anxiety, and even cardiovascular disease. Effective stress management therapies may help maintain overall well-being and reduce the risk of long-term health complications. The Primal Reflex Release Technique (PRRT) is a novel manual therapy that may reduce markers related to stress such as heart rate variability (HRV) and patient-reported outcomes (PROs). Therefore, the purpose of this study is to elucidate the potential for PRRT to improve HRV and PROs.

- **Completion Date**: 2027-03
- **Lead Sponsor**: NewAmsterdam Pharma
### Study Description
This placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomized, Phase 3 study is being conducted in adult participants with high-risk atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) who are not adequately controlled by their maximally tolerated lipid-modifying therapy, to assess the impact of the obicetrapib 10 mg + ezetimibe 10 mg FDC daily on coronary plaque and inflammation characteristics, evaluated using cardiovascular computed tomography angiography (CCTA).
### Conditions
- Lipidemia
- Coronary Artery Disease
- Plaque, Atherosclerotic
### Study Design
- **Type**: INTERVENTIONAL
- **Allocation**: RANDOMIZED
- **Intervention Model**: PARALLEL
- **Primary Purpose**: PREVENTION
### Interventions
- obicetrapib 10 mg + ezetimibe 10 mg FDC daily
- Placebo
### Outcomes
**Primary Outcomes**
- • To evaluate the effect of obicetrapib 10 mg + ezetimibe 10 mg fixed dose combination (FDC) daily on total non-calcified coronary atherosclerotic plaque volume (NCPV) at 18 months.
**Secondary Outcomes**
- Absolute change from baseline to 18 months in total NCPV in all major epicardial coronary arteries, as measured by CCTA, in participants treated with obicetrapib 10 mg + ezetimibe 10 mg FDC therapy compared with placebo.
- Percent change from baseline to 18 months in LDL-C in participants treated with obicetrapib 10 mg + ezetimibe 10 mg FDC therapy compared to placebo.
