Sep 10th, 2021 - Main objective and evaluation criteria: To evaluate the potential therapeutic efficacy of repetitive tDCS during 10 days on language/semantic impairment in SD via a double-blind sham-controlled study design. The evaluation criteria will be a significant improvement of language/semantic performances two weeks after tDCS as compared to base-line (before tDCS), contrasting subgroups receiving left...

Sep 10th, 2021 - Patients treated with targeted therapies by tyrosine kinase inhibition (TKI) almost always show different response patterns than tumors treated with cytotoxic chemotherapy. Tumor manifestations treated with targeted therapies often show only minor measurable changes in tumor size despite inhibition of tumor proliferation. Decrease in tumor size fulfilling the criteria of a partial remission acc...

Sep 10th, 2021 - The purpose of this study is to evaluate both the safety and tolerability of up to 4 dosing cycles of TAR-200 for 21 days per dosing cycle in the induction period.

Sep 10th, 2021 - This will be a phase I/IIa, open-label, three-stage, single center study aimed at investigating the safety, the efficacy (clinical and endoscopic effects) and the pharmacokinetics of Niclosamide enema 150 mg/60 ml and 450 mg/60 ml in subjects with mild-to-moderate UP and UPS, defined as a Modified Mayo Score (MMS) ≥ 4 and < 8, with a stool frequency subscore (SFS) ≥ 1, a rectal bleeding sub-sco...

Sep 10th, 2021 - Freezing of gait (FOG) is a devastating motor phenomenon which may occur in patients with Parkinson's Disease (PD) and other neurodegenerative disorders. It is characterized by episodes during which patients cannot generate effective forward stepping movements in the absence of motor deficits. FOG leads to reduced mobility, loss of independence, social embarrassment, and caregiver stress. While...

Sep 10th, 2021 - PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. Determine whether the fluorine F 18 DASA-23 ([18F]DASA 23) PET scan signal change from pre-therapy to one week after initiation of therapy can predict the tumor's responsiveness to therapy and 6 month progression free survival (PFS6), in suspected recurrent glioblastoma. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of [18F]DASA-23 PET imag...

Sep 10th, 2021 - The study consists of the following periods: screening; treatment; post-treatment follow up, safety follow up, long term and survival follow-up.

Sep 10th, 2021 - To collect and organize data into a repository from the Principal Investigator's and other Site Investigators' elderly patients (aged ≥ 60 years) who are undergoing single, two-level, or three-level lumbar instrumented arthrodesis procedures supplemented by the Implanet Jazz SystemTM at participating centers. This device is designed to provide a stable interface between spinal constructs and th...

Sep 10th, 2021 - Randomized controlled trial in 3 arms to see if a short or a even shorter period of steroid treatment on patients diagnosed with vestibular neuritis can be as effective as the only comparable study thus far (Strupp et al, NEJM 22, 351(4) 354-61). If a shorter treatment with a lower dose has the same outcome, then more patients might be eligible for the treatment as many are excluded due to risk...

Sep 10th, 2021 - Activation is the amount of voluntary recruitment of a muscle during voluntary contraction. Full activation implies the recruitment of all muscle fibres at their tetanic frequency. In healthy subjects, and even in sports performances, full activation may be rarely achieved despite a subjectively maximal effort. Highly decreased activation has been observed in patients affected by various orthop...
