### Study Description
Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) is the standard procedure to stage the axilla in clinically node-negative invasive breast cancer (IBC) patients undergoing upfront surgery.The ACOSOG-Z0011 and the AMAROS trial demonstrated that SLNB with or without radiotherapy provided equivalent local control and survival to axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) in early-stage breast cancer patients with 1 or 2 positive SLNs. However, the ACOSOG-Z0011 trial did not included patients treated with mastectomy, and the AMAROS trial only included 17% of mastectomy patients.The investigators conduct an observational cohort study of early stage breast cancer patients receiving upfront mastectomy with 1 or 2 macrometastases after SLNB. The study aim to demonstrate a 5-year disease-free survival of not less than 80% when ALND is omitted and replaced by axillary radiotherapy, and determine the axillary recurrence rate.

### Study Description
The rationale of the study is to collect structured data in the neuropsychological, clinical neuroradiologic and neurorehabilitation fields in children/young people affected by congenital and juvenile myotonic dystrophy. Children affected by the congenital form (CDM1) present important brain alterations present since birth while, on the contrary, patients with the adult form of DM1 often present a degenerative, slowly progressive neurocognitive picture. Promising therapies that aim to correct the molecular mechanism underlying the symptoms of adult forms of DM1 are under development, but their potential role at the level of the nervous system and in particular in forms of CDM1 (which appears to be a distinct disorder of neuronal development) is also to be clarified.To this end, a better definition of neurocognitive profiles and their evolution is essential for the purposes of evaluating the effectiveness of experimental therapies.

## Extraction Socket Augmentation. A Clinical Study
- **NCT ID**: NCT06378112
- **Study ID**: 2734/CEIH/2022
- **Status**: RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2022-05-20
- **Completion Date**: 2025-12-30
- **Lead Sponsor**: Universidad de Granada
### Study Description
Extraction socket preservation is defined as alveolar ridge preservation within the bone envelope remaining after tooth extraction, meanwhile ridge augmentation is defined as increasing the volume of alveolar ridge beyond the bony envelope at the time of tooth extraction. It is recommended to use in cases where extraction socket anatomy is intact. In contrast definition "extraction socket augmentation" defines alveolar ridge restoration when bony walls of the socket are partly or completely lost. In the case of severe loss (\> 50%) of the buccal bone plate, preservation of hard tissue with a prolonged healing time before implant placement has been suggested.The null hypothesis of this experimental work states that: (i) the two different bone graft materials gained the same amount of bone following horizontal ridge augmentation procedure; (i) the two different bone graft materials exhibit similar histological and histomorphometric results Therefore, the main purpose of the current study is to compare two different biomaterials using guided bone regeneration procedures in the ridge preservation/ augmentation (hard-tissue preservation).

### Study Description
Minor ailments are non-serious, short-term health problems, not related to the patient's pathologies or to the desired or undesired effects of the medications they are taking. Pharmaceutical indication is the service provided in response to a patient's request, who comes to the pharmacy asking for a medication recommendation for a health problem; for this purpose, over-the-counter medications are used, which are pharmacological agents that can be acquired without a prescription. The practice of pharmaceutical indication turns self-medication into a safe and responsible practice, but it requires agreed-upon protocols.

- **Completion Date**: 2025-05
- **Lead Sponsor**: Teoxane SA
### Study Description
This is a randomized, controlled, double-blinded, within-subject (split-face), multicenter, prospective study to investigate whether RHA® Redensity with new anesthetic agent is non-inferior to RHA® Redensity with lidocaine in terms of injection site pain felt by the subject during injection.At screening, the Principal Investigator (PI) evaluated subjects' perioral rhytid severity (using the Perioral Rhytid Severity Rating Scale; PR-SRS) to confirm eligibility and to establish a pre-treatment score for assessing aesthetic improvement.At Visit 1, RHA® Redensity with new anesthetic agent was administered in a random sequence (first or second injection) and side of the mouth (left or right) and RHA® Redensity with lidocaine was administered to the other side. Study subjects and the PI injecting study devices were blinded.Immediately after injection of an upper perioral quadrant, subjects rated the injection site pain experienced during injection using a 100 mm Visual Analog Scale (VAS). Injection site pain in each side of the mouth was also assessed at 15, 30, 45 and 60 minutes after injection of the upper quadrant.Safety evaluation consisted of AE assessments, a 30-day CTR (Common Treatment Response) diary and a follow-up call performed by the study site at 72 hours after injection.Subjects attended Visit 2 (30 days post-injection) where effectiveness and safety assessments were conducted.Subjects who presented with an unresolved clinically significant device related AE at Visit 2 received a optional follow-up phone call no later than 30 days after Visit 2.If the clinically significant AE remained unresolved, the Investigator requested that the subject attended the optional in-clinic follow-up visit (i.e., Visit 3) within 5 working days. Follow-up of the clinically significant AE continued until the AE was resolved or the TI determines that additional follow-up was not necessary.

## The Effect of Emotional Resilience Training on Fear of Birth and Depression in Primiparous Pregnant Women
- **NCT ID**: NCT06377891
- **Study ID**: TDK-2024-13563
- **Status**: ENROLLING_BY_INVITATION
- **Start Date**: 2024-04-16
- **Completion Date**: 2024-12-30
- **Lead Sponsor**: Ataturk University
### Study Description
Although birth has a great place in a woman's life, factors such as the woman's education level, personal experiences, social support status, whether the pregnancy is planned or not, the family's attitude towards pregnancy, and socioeconomic status increase the burden of pregnancy and can create a stressful situation for the woman. While the pain that may be experienced during birth, thoughts about the baby's health and postpartum baby care further increase this fear, primiparous women who will give birth for the first time experience many emotions that they cannot define and cannot predict the situations they will encounter during birth. The most important situation that will cause pain during birth is fear. So much so that fear of birth may cause women to avoid pregnancy and increase optional abortions.In particular, fear of birth may increase cesarean delivery rates and also lead to negative maternal outcomes such as poor mental health after birth. Fear experienced during the antenatal period can lead to difficult births, mother-baby attachment problems, and depression. While fear of birth causes depression and anxiety disorders in the postpartum period, it is stated that depression experienced during pregnancy may increase the fear of birth, or fear of birth may be a hidden symptom of depression. It is noted that emotional regulation skills and resilience in pregnant women can be effective strategies in minimizing and managing fear, anxiety, stress, and anxiety. Emotional resilience is defined as the style of coping with stress, the ability to repair oneself, the ability to recover from adverse events quickly, and the state of adapting to a new environment. In particular, individuals with high emotional resilience can protect their physical and mental health and increase their life satisfaction by reducing the negative consequences they experience. With the emotional resilience training given during pregnancy, pregnant women's stress, fear, and anxiety will be reduced, and they will be able to cope better with the difficulties they experience. This research will be conducted to examine the effect of emotional resilience training given to primiparous pregnant women on fear of childbirth and depression.

### Study Description
The purpose of The Preeclampsia Registry is to collect and store medical and other information from women who have been medically diagnosed with preeclampsia or a related hypertensive (high blood pressure) disorder of pregnancy such as eclampsia or HELLP syndrome, their family members, and women who have not had preeclampsia to serve as controls. Information from participants will be used for medical research to try to understand why preeclampsia occurs, how to predict it better, and to develop experimental clinical trials of new treatments. The Registry will consist of a web-based survey and mechanism for collecting and reviewing medical records. This data will be utilized for immediate investigator-driven cross-sectional research projects (after proposal review by the Registry's scientific advisory board and as directed by the PI). Participants may also choose to be contacted regarding possible participation in future studies, about providing a biospecimen, as well as investigator-driven clinical trials. The Registry is anticipated to exist long-term and to serve as a foundation of participants from which to draw for studies of preeclampsia, anticipated to evolve as our scientific understanding of preeclampsia evolves.

### Study Description
Pain is the most common complication following surgical removal of an impacted mandibular third molar. Several risk factors may increase the intensity and duration of pain following removal of mandibular third molars. Acute postoperative pain can transcript into postoperative chronic pain without an explainable reason or a specific risk factor. The use of advanced platelet-rich fibrin in the extraction socket following surgical removal of mandibular third molar have diminished the intensity and duration of acute postoperative pain and facilitated improved wound healing.

### Study Description
Acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) is a life-threaten syndrome carrying high-short-term mortality raging 40% to 60% within 90 days in patients with chronic liver disease. Double plasma molecular adsorption system (DPMAS) is one of the available artificial liver support systems, which combines plasma filtration and two specific adsorption membranes dedicating to remove bilirubin and the middle molecular toxins respectively. The efficiency of DMPAS treatment in liver failure patients remains controversial. Previous study indicate that liver failure patients with DPMAS therapy improve the short-term mortality and prevent the diseases progression within 28 days (PADSTONE Study). Thus, this single-arm, multicenter and prospective study is to further validate and optimize the therapeutic procedures of DPMAS therapy in ACLF patients.

- **Status**: NOT_YET_RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2024-05-01
- **Completion Date**: 2027-04-30
- **Lead Sponsor**: Mayo Clinic
### Study Description
This phase III trial evaluates whether patient care can be done remotely for patients having cranial (skull) radiation or who have previously had cranial radiation. In addition, this trial compares study outcomes between patients who get metformin and those who do not. Cranial radiation, an essential component of brain tumor treatment, can result in significant negative effects on cognitive (the ability to clearly think, learn, and remember) function. Wearable devices have been used in the field of neurology for seizure detection and assessment of patients with movement disorders. Wearable device technology has also been implemented for remote monitoring of cancer patients and for cancer clinical trials. Metformin is the active ingredient in a drug used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus (a condition in which the body cannot control the level of sugar in the blood). It is also being studied in the treatment of cancer. Use of metformin may reduce risk of cognitive decline following radiation therapy within the skull (intracranial). These effects may be further strengthen by addition of device-based physical activity promotion. Mayo Test Drive is a web-based platform for remote self-administered cognitive assessment. Using Mayo Test Drive may help determine whether patient care can be done remotely, while simultaneously evaluating benefits of health promotion through use of a wearable watch device and metformin in preventing radiation-related cognitive decline.

### Study Description
Diabetes is a prevalent metabolic disease that leads to increased blood sugar levels due to insulin shortage or resistance. Type 2 diabetes is often linked to obesity, which can increase insulin resistance. Meteorin-like protein (METRNL) is a new secreted protein that affects insulin sensitivity and has been found to be negatively related to serum glucose levels in people with diabetes.Oxidative stress in diabetics can stimulate the production of inflammatory mediators, increasing the activity of the antioxidant system. Aloe vera, a widely used plant, has been used for treating diabetes, wound healing, tumors, and inflammatory bowel disease. It has anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, neuroprotective, antidepressant, and memory-enhancing effects.Exercise can improve diabetic patients' conditions by increasing the expression of GLUT4 protein and skeletal muscle. High-intensity interval training has been shown to increase the expression of the METORIN gene in human subjects and decrease MDA in type 2 diabetic patients. However, no studies have examined the simultaneous effect of exercise and Aloe vera on diabetes indicators.The present study aims to investigate the response of METRNL and some oxidative and antioxidant plasma indicators to high-intensity interval training and Aloe vera supplementation in type 2 diabetic men. The findings indicate that exercise and consumption of plants with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties can be effective in modulating the pathological effects of diabetes and increasing insulin sensitivity.

## The Efficacy of Thoracic Erector Spinae Plane Block For Perioperative Analgesia in Laparoscopic Bariatric Surgery for Super Obese Patients: Randomized Controlled Trial.
- **NCT ID**: NCT06377605

### Study Description
The epidemic of overweight and obesity presents a major challenge to chronic disease prevention and health across the life course around the world. \[1\] Bariatric surgery has proved to be an efficient intervention in the management of obesity. As a result, the number of post-bariatric surgery patients in the population is growing \[2\].Postoperative analgesia presents various challenges in vulnerable patient groups suffering from obesity. With the high potential risk of respiratory depression and postoperative pulmonary complications associated with opioid use, such as atelectasis and pneumonia, the availability of other pain management modalities is essential \[14\].Ultrasound-guided erector spinae plane block (ESPB) is a regional anesthesia technique where local anesthetic agent is injected deep to the erector spinae muscle to fascial plane and allowed to diffuse caudally and cranially. It is supposed to provide both visceral and somatic abdominal analgesia \[3\].ESPB is effective, easy to perform, and can be performed in a short time. \[4\] It has been shown efficacy in different conditions such as thoracic surgery, trauma, cardiac surgery, breast surgery, and abdominal surgery \[5\]. However, the main concern with the ESPB block is feasibility together with the potency of the block in challenging populations, such as patients suffering from obesity.Peripheral nerve blocks in the obese may pose challenges, like difficulties in proper patient positioning and landmark identification. However, Ultrasound guidance may help overcome many difficulties in regional techniques. But as expected, targets are more deeply situated in obese patients and the ultrasound beams are attenuated as they travel a greater distance through tissue layers. Additionally, when crossing a tissue boundary, a portion is reflected back to the transducer creating artifacts like speckling and clutter which are particular problems in the obese patient. \[15\] Few studies examined the use of ESPB in bariatric surgery \[3,6,7\], all indicating potential benefits of the technique in terms of opioid sparing and pain control. To date, the efficacy of ESPB has not been examined in superobese patient.So we aim to compare the perioperative analgesic effect of bilateral ultrasound-guided ESPB with controls, Local bupivacaine infiltration to the trocar sites, in super obese patients undergoing bariatric surgery We hypothesis that ESBP provides good applicable modality of perioperative analgesia for superobese patients undergoing bariatric surgeries.

## OBServatory of Compassionate Use of IVOsidenib in France for Patients With Acute Myeloid Leukemia

### Study Description
Mutations in IDH genes are found in numerous cancers and more specifically in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). These mutations target specific amino acids, at positions 140 or 172 of IDH2, and 132 of IDH1. Mutant IDH proteins acquire an abnormal enzymatic activity allowing them to convert α-ketoglutarate (αKG) into D-2 hydroxyglutarate (D-2HG), an oncometabolite which massively accumulates in IDH-mutated cells. At high levels, D-2HG behaves as a competitive inhibitor of αKG and affects the activity of Fe(II)/αKG-dependent dioxygenases. This enzymatic family is involved in a broad spectrum of pathways such as demethylation of histone (JHDM histone demethylases) or DNA (methylcytosine hydroxylases of the TET family). As a result, IDH-mutated cells show altered survival, motility, invasiveness and cell differentiation. In AML, IDH1 mutations might be present in 10-15% at diagnosisIvosidenib (IVO) a first-in-class, oral, irreversible inhibitor of mutant IDH1 has shown clinical activity as a single agent in studies involving patients with IDH1 mutated relapsed or refractory (R/R) AML (DiNardo et al. 2018) and in front line settings (Montesinos et al. 2022). In phase II clinical trials, IVO yielded 30-35% of complete response rates both in frontline and R/R settings, with long lasting responses. Based on these results, the FDA (Food and Drug Agency) gave its approval for newly-diagnosed AML IDH1mut patients who are ≥ 75 years old or who have comorbidities and in R/R. However, European Medicines Agency (EMA)'s did not approved IVO due to lack of evidences to support the application. Agios Netherlands B.V. (the company that previously own the drug before Servier Laboratories) withdrew its EMA application. Nevertheless, IVO has been available in France through a compassionate use program (CUP), since February 2020 for R/R patients and March 2022 for first line treatment.In this multicentric retrospective study, we aim to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Ivo in two cohorts of IDH1mut AML patients treated within the CUP. The first cohort will concern patients treated in first line setting and the second cohort those treated in R/R disease. Our results might provide new insights regarding IVO in real life settings and support signs of efficacy. This could provide new data for the haematologist community and for another appliance to grant EMA approval of IVO in the setting of R/R IDH1mut AML.

## A Study of BV-AVD in People With Bulky Hodgkin Lymphoma
- **NCT ID**: NCT06377566
- **Study ID**: 24-039
- **Status**: RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2024-04-17
- **Completion Date**: 2027-04
- **Lead Sponsor**: Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center
### Study Description
The purpose of this study is to test whether BV-AVD is an effective treatment in people with early stage, bulky Hodgkin lymphoma that was recently diagnosed and who have not yet received any treatments for their disease.BV is a type of drug called an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC). ADCs are a substance made up of a monoclonal antibody chemically linked to a drug. Antibodies are proteins made by the immune system to fight infections and other possible harms to the body. The monoclonal antibody binds to specific proteins or receptors found on certain types of cells, including cancer cells. The linked drug enters these cells and kills them without harming other cells. Researchers think BV may be an effective treatment for this type of cancer because the drug targets cells that have CD30, which play a role in cancer cell growth. By destroying these cells, BV may help slow or stop the growth of the cancer. AVD (doxorubicin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine) is a treatment regimen that works by stopping the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. The researchers think that BV in combination with AVD may work better than AVD alone to slow or stop the growth of the cancer.

### Study Description
As the third global leading cause of death, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) affects more than 300 million people worldwide. These patients suffer from 0.5-3.5 exacerbations per year on average. Each exacerbations dampened their health status as well as quality of life, not to mention a great burden to our healthcare system. Those partially treated or prolonged exacerbations would subsequently lead to unfavorable disease progression. Hence a holistic approach in managing each exacerbations is very crucial.Mucus hypersecretion in COPD patients plays a pivotal role in acute exacerbations and associated with unfavorable outcomes. These exacerbations comes with sputum increment as much as its purulence. Mucolytics are believed to to ease patient to expectorate and benefits them from tip into an exacerbations or even the consequent hospitalisation.Mucolytics work by reducing sputum viscosity hence improved its expectoration. N-acetylcysteine (NAC) is a mucolytic with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, commonly used in practice among COPD patients. Meanwhile, Syrup Prospan is ivy leaf preparations, obtained as extracts from leaves of the plant Hedera helix L. It is widely used over-the-counter cough remedy containing saponins which are believed to have expectorant properties. Studies show evidence of antispasmodic, bonchodilating, anti-inflammatory and antitussive properties and its usage is authorised by the European Medicines Agency .

- **Status**: NOT_YET_RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2024-04-15
- **Completion Date**: 2028-04-14
- **Lead Sponsor**: Indian Council of Medical Research
### Study Description
Preterm infants are born at less than 37 weeks of pregnancy. Sometimes a break or tear in the fluid filled bag that surrounds and protects the infant during pregnancy leads to an untimely birth. This state puts the infant at risk of serious condition called sepsis. Sepsis is a condition in which body responds inappropriately to an infection. Sepsis may progress to septic shock which can result in the loss of life. Doctors give antibiotics to treat sepsis.The goal of this research study is to find out:1. Among neonates at risk of early-onset neonatal sepsis, whether a policy of administering antibiotics selectively to a subset of at-risk infants who later develop signs of sepsis is not inferior to administering antibiotics to all at-risk infants in the 1st week of life.2. To find out if infants receiving selective antibiotics (as above) compared to those receiving antibiotics from birth (as above) require fewer antibiotic courses of 48 hours duration or more in the 1st week of life.3. To find out whether infants receiving selective antibiotics (as above) compared to those receiving antibiotics from birth (as above) are significantly different with respect to a wide range of secondary outcomes (listed under "Outcomes").

### Study Description
Aim: To evaluate the use of AeviceMD Monitoring System (AeviceMD) asthma in reducing acute exacerbation.Methodology: Using a randomized controlled trial design, this project aims evaluate the effectiveness of AeviceMD in improving patients' outcomes in terms of reducing exacerbation, healthcare utilization, improving quality of life, self-efficacy, and cost effectiveness. Paediatric patients above age 7 and adults will be recruited. The data follow-up period is 3 months. It will also evaluate the usability of the device from both patients' and clinicians' perspective. 180 patients (124 adults, 56 pediatrics) and 120 clinicians will be recruited.Importance of study: This study will evaluate if the AeviceMD can help improve disease management and reduce recurrence of asthma exacerbation.Potential benefits and risk: AeviceMD allows for remote monitoring and tracking of patients' lung sounds, which could be used by patients to monitor their lung condition and prevent an episode of exacerbation or worsening exacerbations culminating in an admission which who further utilize already limited healthcare resources. An exacerbation is an episode of severe shortness of breath, cough, and chest tightening which warrants a visit to a healthcare institution. Through self-monitoring, patients can be empowered to self-manage their asthma, with aid of the asthma action plan which is given to all patients with asthma. AeviceMD can also help provide clinicians with patients' objective lung data. In the primary care setting, care is also fragmented as patients are often followed-up by a different doctor or healthcare providers. Clinicians have no objective data to track patients, and is dependent on patients' self-report and possible recall bias. There is no expected risk with the use of the device.

### Study Description
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) and overlap syndrome are associated with obstructions in breathing and disturbed sleep.Chronic breathing disruptions and poor sleep may lead to cognitive impairment and brain changes linked with early neurodegenerative processes. As such, identifying early markers of cognitive impairment and dementia risk in individuals with chronic respiratory and sleep breathing disorders is crucial for understanding how these diseases may contribute to accelerated brain ageing. This study will comprehensively measure sleep, lung function, cognitive performance and blood-based markers of dementia risk and inflammation. The investigators will use innovative technologies to identify biomarkers of cognitive impairment and dementia risk in people with chronic sleep and breathing disorders. The investigators will also investigate the relationships between disrupted sleep and abnormal breathing and the brain. This research may also inform future early interventions to improve cognition and brain health in chronic sleep and respiratory disease.

### Study Description
Heart failure (HF) is a complex clinical syndrome associated with impaired heart function, poor quality of life for patients and high healthcare costs. Accurate risk stratification and early diagnosis in HF are challenging as signs and symptoms are non-specific. Here the investigators propose to address this global challenge by developing novel analytic methods for HF (STRATIFYHF). A prospective clinical study will collect patient-specific data related to medical history, a physical examination for signs and symptoms, blood tests including natriuretic peptides, an electrocardiogram (ECG), an echocardiogram (ultrasound of the heart), cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), demographic, socio-economic and lifestyle data along with novel technologies (cardiac output response to stress (CORS) test and voice recognition biomarkers) from individuals at-risk of developing HF and those with a confirmed diagnosis of HF. STRATIFYHF will use these data to support clinical validation of an artificial intelligence (AI)-driven decision support system (DSS) and mobile application for risk prediction, diagnosis, and progression of HF to enhance patients' quality of life and lead to more cost-effective health care.

- **Study ID**: MC study
- **Status**: RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2023-11-05
- **Completion Date**: 2027-01-30
- **Lead Sponsor**: Wingate Institute
### Study Description
Despite a rise in the number of women participating in competitive sports, there remains a gender gap within sport and exercise science literature. Studying females involves potential "noise" through the change in hormone concentrations during the different phases of the female menstrual cycle (MC) which can potentially affect physiological parameters, thereby making study design and interpretation of findings difficult. Longitudinal data on the acute and chronic combined effects of training load and MC phases on circulating female hormones in elite and non-elite female athletes is lacking.The investigators aim to characterize and track the potential effects of training load and MC phases on performance, anthropometric measures, sport emotions, intestinal microbiome, serum metabolites and injury prevalence in elite and non-elite female athletes.200 competitive premenopausal female athletes will be recruited. In a longitudinal observational design, each participant will be followed for 1 year, and tested at three time points. At each point, data will be collected on two occasions reflecting distinct phases of the MC.Finding the possible relationship between the MC phases, training load and performance or specific bio-markers for training load are of utmost importance and can assist professionals to identify periods of high load and over-training, thus preventing injuries and training adjustment.

### Study Description
In patients with kidney failure, disturbances in bone turnover, mineral metabolism, vascular calcification, uremia, inflammation, immunity, nutrition, and gut microbial metabolites are frequent. Unhealthy diet causes altered mineral metabolism, elevated uremic toxin level, immune dysregulation, inflammation, protein-energy wasting and dysbiosis. The investigators hypothesize that therapeutic diet intervention reverses these uremic complications and thereby reduces cardiovascular risk in patients with kidney failure. In this study, the investigators crafted 4-week dialysis-specific therapeutic diet to illustrate the clinical implications of therapeutic diet for dialysis patients.

### Study Description
Background:The study aims to address the challenge of accurately identifying patients with ovarian cancer who would benefit from poly-ADP ribose inhibitors (PARPi) as first-line maintenance therapy. While BRCA1/2-mutated epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) patients have shown significant benefits from PARPi treatment, the efficacy in homologous recombination deficient (HRD) patients remains inconclusive. Current assays used to estimate HR status do not effectively differentiate between patients who benefit most from PARPi and those who do not, making it inefficient to treat all patients. There is a need for a more accurate HR status testing method to optimize PARPi benefit. This study aims to assess the performance of the VHIO-CARD-300 test in determining HR status compared to SOPHiA DDM™ Dx HRD Solution.Summary:The study is a prospective, non-randomized trial designed to evaluate the concordance of the VHIO-CARD-300 test in establishing HR status compared to SOPHiA DDM™ Dx HRD Solution. Additionally, it aims to assess the association between HRD status determined by the VHIO-CARD-300 test and treatment efficacy. Patients with advanced FIGO stage III-IV high grade serous or endometrioid ovarian, fallopian tube, or peritoneal cancer will be invited to participate. Those eligible will undergo testing with both VHIO-CARD-300 and SOPHiA DDM™ Dx HRD Solution. Patients classified as HRD positive will receive olaparib in combination with bevacizumab, while others will receive bevacizumab alone. Treatment will be administered according to approved doses, with follow-up evaluations conducted until RECIST progression.

## Multi-organ Responses to CHronic Physical Activity and INactivity
- **NCT ID**: NCT06377254
- **Study ID**: BB/X015173/1
- **Status**: RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2024-03-12

- **Lead Sponsor**: University of Nottingham
### Study Description
Life expectancy has been increasing for the last 150 years, but the maintenance of health has not kept pace with increased lifespan, and on average, UK adults spend the last decade of life in poor-health, with major consequences for society and the individual.Persistent physical inactivity is thought to be a key contributing factor to the risk of poor health and functional decline occurring in middle-aged and older adults. It is therefore concerning that most middle-aged adults spend \>8hrs/day being sedentary, with average step count of 3000-4000 steps/day.To be able to holistically assess the effectiveness of future strategies to address age-related decline in health, and devise public health messages to help individuals reach older age in better health, it is essential that the complex physiological effects that activity and inactivity have across biological systems are characterised.The goal of this intervention study is to compare the impact of physical activity and inactivity on body functioning. Twenty moderately active participants will decrease their physical activity for six months to match the average amount carried out by middle-aged people in the UK. They will then undertake 3-months of reconditioning training to restore their fitness. In addition, twenty sedentary participants will increase their physical activity to UK recommended levels for six months.Before and at points during the intervention period, participants will be asked to make some measurements at home and attend the University of Nottingham to have multiple assessments made. These include;* fitness, muscle strength and function tests,* completion of questionnaires and computer-based brain puzzles* having muscle and fat tissue biopsies and blood samples taken.* The study also involves having MRI scans.This 5-year study will commence in January 2024, with participant recruitment starting in March 2024 and finishing in May 2027.

### Study Description
The overarching hypothesis to be evaluated using this protocol is that age-related hearing loss (ARHL) leads to shifts in the functional spatial boundaries between segregated and integrated auditory streams, and that hearing aid intervention that relies on directional processing schemes is most effective for those that have the poorest spatial sensitivity. One key component of the research design is to measure both behavioral and neurophysiological indices of an individual's spatial segregation boundary. The second key component is to measure the cost or benefit associated with hearing aid intervention in older hearing-impaired listeners. The final component is to relate cost and benefit of hearing aid intervention to spatial sensitivity measures that might predict the efficacy of clinical intervention.

## Psychiatric Consultation-Liaison Intervention in Primary Care: A Pilot Study
- **NCT ID**: NCT06377189
- **Study ID**: 2023-01910
- **Status**: NOT_YET_RECRUITING
- **Start Date**: 2024-05-01
- **Completion Date**: 2025-12-01
- **Lead Sponsor**: Center for Primary Care and Public Health (Unisante), University of Lausanne, Switzerland
### Study Description
The pilot study on the impact of a Psychiatric Consultation-Liaison Intervention in Primary Care Medical Consultations in French-speaking Switzerland (PLIMeC-P), is a mixed method randomized controlled trial. The investigated health-related intervention is a brief Consultation-Liaison (CL) psychiatry intervention in primary care.Primary Care Physicians (PCPs) have a key role in preventing, detecting, and managing mental disorders. Therefore, the optimization of both the quality of their interventions and their cooperation with psychiatric and psychological care networks are important challenges. It is well demonstrated that multidisciplinary interventions improve the efficacy of mental health care, CL psychiatry being one such type of intervention. Therefore, community CL-psychiatry, for example in private primary care group practices, are rare. The impact of such community, primary care CL-psychiatry interventions, should be investigated.The mixed methods randomized controlled trial PLIMeC study will examine the impact of a CL-psychiatric intervention in primary care settings, for newly reported mental illness, versus a Treatment As Usual (TAU) control arm. The intervention consists of a CL-psychiatric intervention into private medical practices, provided to patients suffering from mental health problems, a group of patients generally under-treated. The CL-psychiatrist will receive and discuss PCPs' referrals for patients with mental distress, who don't have a psychiatric follow-up. After a brief intervention (1-4 sessions), feedback conjoint (PCP-psychiatrist) session will be organized, to complete the intervention and provide proposals.The pilot study (PLIMeC-P) will determine whether the main planned study (PLIMeC) is feasible and practicable. It will be conducted on two sites, the Neuchâtel Psychiatry Centre (CNP) and the North-west Adult Psychiatry Service (SPANO), Department of Psychiatry of CHUV, Yverdon. For the pilot study (PLIMeC-P), 15 eligible participants are expected for each group, 30 participants in total. They will be recruited in three private primary care group practices. After eligibility and randomization 15 participants will be included for the intervention arm (brief CL-psychiatric intervention) and 15 for the control arm (TAU). The expected number of participants for the main trial (PLIMeC) will be estimated through analysis of the initial results of the PLIMeC-P.

### Study Description
Pediatric obesity is considered one of the most important public health problems worldwide due to its high prevalence and associated comorbidities. Physical exercise has been shown to have an important role in the treatment of obesity and associated cardiometabolic dysfunction. Small-sided soccer games (SSSG) have been explored as a promising way of increasing physical exercise due to its benefits on cardiometabolic health and high degree of enjoyment, which favors long-term adherence.The objective of this research is to determine the effects of a 16-week high-intensity SSSG-based exercise intervention on cardiometabolic risk factors, physical fitness, adherence to 24-hour movement patterns, enjoyment and adherence to the intervention in adolescents with metabolic dysfunction and compare them to the effects of a traditional soccer intervention.The investigators hypothesize that high-intensity SSSG are more effective in improving the obesity-related cardiometabolic risk profile in adolescents with cardiometabolic dysfunction compared to traditional soccer training.A parallel 3-arm randomized controlled trial will be conducted in adolescents with overweight and metabolic dysfunction between 11 and 15 years of age. The inclusion criteria are: (i) age between 11-15 years at the time of intervention start; (ii) overweight or obesity (BMI\> 85th percentile); (iii) Abdominal obesity ≥90th percentile as assessed by waist circumference or a waist-to-height ratio ≥ 0.5; (iv) willing to participate in the study regardless of possible group allocation; (v) informed consent given by participant and legal representatives. Exclusion criteria: (i) health condition not compatible with participation in physical exercise; (ii) history of recent musculoskeletal injury hindering exercise participation; (iii) concurrent participation in a structured weight loss or exercise program.Those eligible to participate in the study will be randomly assigned to one of three groups: i) SSSG group, ii) traditional soccer play group (TSG), or, iii) non-exercise intervention control group (CG). Participants in both exercise intervention groups will undergo a 16-week intervention. The SSSG group will participate in a high-intensity small-sided soccer games training, while the TSG will undergo a technical and tactical skills training program and traditional soccer training. The CG participants will continue with regular school physical education classes without any additional intervention. Before and after the intervention, all participants will be assessed for cardiometabolic and hepatic biochemical markers, physical fitness, anthropometry and body composition, blood pressure, objective daily physical activity and sleep quality, and perceived enjoyment of participation in SSSG and TSG. The primary outcomes of the study will be waist circumference and cardiorespiratory fitness.The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Faculty of Sport of the University of Porto and by the Scientific Ethics Committee of the Adventist University of Chile.

### Study Description
In this controlled dose-escalation study, we will study the initial safety, biological properties, and potential efficacy of 5-azacytidine (AZA). Our overarching aspiration is for AZA to evolve into an approved pharmacological treatment, fostering muscle growth and enhancing body movement, ultimately contributing to an improved quality of life in children with CP.The main questions this study aims to answer are:1. What is the optimal dose of AZA injection that can be used safely in children with CP?2. Can the optimal safe dose of AZA improve the function of muscle-generating stem cells in children with CP?Each participant will have up to five research visits over the course of the study duration, in which they will participate in: blood draws, pregnancy test(s) (if applicable), medical assessments, and a muscle biopsy during a surgery for muscle contractures.Researchers will compare participants with four different dosages of AZA injections to those with four different dosages of placebo injections. A placebo is a look-alike substance that contains no active drug. They will see if a single injection of AZA at a standard concentration currently approved by the FDA to treat myelodysplastic syndromes, can also safely improve muscle growth and function in children with CP.
