This phase II trial studies the effect of nivolumab in urothelial cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic), specifically in patients with aberrations in ARID1A gene (ARID1A mutation) and correlate with expression level of CXCL13, an immune cytokine. Immunot…

A quasi-experimental non-randomized pre/post with control group trial of two models of cancer survivorship care in early-stage colorectal and breast cancer survivors cared for in a community-based, integrated health care setting.

This is a prospective, non-interventional, Long-term, multinational cohort safety study of patients with Hereditary Transthyretin Amyloidosis with Polyneuropathy (hATTR-PN). The overarching goal of this study is to further characterize the long-term safety of TEGSEDI (inotersen) …

The purpose of this study is to determine the optimum dose of Dexmedetomidine to stop shivering in 90% of patients who experience shivering during scheduled elective cesarean deliveries.

This is a prospective, single center, pharmacokinetic study of intravenous hydrocortisone therapy for systemic low blood pressure during hypothermia treatment in asphyxiated newborns. Patients will be allocated to hydrocortisone supplementation while receiving conventional inotro…

A total of 1900 pregnant women in the 1st trimester and their children will be enrolled and followed for two years (ORCHID study main cohort). As part of this, mother-infant pairs will be required to attend up to 10 study visits separate from routine clinic visits, these visits i…

Pyloric stenosis is a current condition in pediatric surgery. The medical management prior to surgery consists of ionic correction. The nasogastric tube is commonly used to prevent gastric fluid inhalation before surgery, but there is no study on it benefits in this specific use.…

Primary Objectives To investigate the relationship between dynamic MRI, brain tumor perfusion (DSC) and permeability (DCE), and dynamic 18F-FAZA PET uptake. Secondary Objectives To investigate the relationship between tumors with greater hypoxia defined by qBOLD and 18F-FAZA PET…

Intravenous fluids are one of the keystones in the initial management of patients with septic shock, but they inevitably lead to a fluid overload, which is associated with poor outcome. So far no studies have evaluated the interest of a restrictive strategy for managing fluid in…

Bladder cancer is the second most prevalent urological cancer in France. About 1 in 5 new cases of bladder cancer infiltrate the muscles. The standard treatment is neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by radical cystectomy associated with reconstruction of the urinary tract. The sho…

Purpose The purpose of this study is to determine whether filtering out blue light at nighttime reduces post-surgical inflammation and/or moderates cognitive decline and mood and sleep alterations in patients undergoing elective CABG, AVR, MVR, CABG AVR, CABG MVR, or SAH surgery.…

Systematic continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) is commonly provided as a treatment option to patients with diabetes in ambulatory care settings yet is rarely provided during hospitalization. CGM of inpatients has the potential to be the care delivery innovation that is feasible, …

The assessment of left ventricular systolic function is based on the measurement of left ventricular ejection function (LVEF) by the Simpson biplane method. More recently, left ventricular global longitudinal strain (GLS) has been developed to detect abnormalities of cardiac cont…

Patients with chronic liver disease (CLD) are at risk of developing clinically significant portal hypertension (CSPH). In the Baveno VI consensus a new term "compensated advanced chronic liver disease (cACLD)'' has been proposed to better reflect that the spectrum of severe fibro…

Ultrasound is a non-radiated diagnostic tool that can be performed at the bedside in emergency departments and critical care settings. Traditionally, junior residents learn from patients by performing sonography on them. However, patient rights, patient safety, and medical qualit…

This is a single institution, prospective study of the whole genome sequencing assay, ChromoSeq. Using prospectively collected patient data, coupled with physician surveys, the investigators seek to determine the feasibility of implementing ChromoSeq in addition to standard genom…

Prospective, multicenter, unblinded study to evaluate outcomes of the Lapiplasty® Procedure using the Lapiplasty® Mini-Incision™ System for patients in need of hallux valgus surgery. Up to 200 subjects will be treated in this study at up to 20 clinical sites. Patients 14 years t…

This study will examine changes in synaptic density with transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) in the brains of patients with schizophrenia. Synaptic density levels will be measured using a novel positron emission tomography (PET) radiotracer \[18F\]SDM-8, which is curre…

With the digital age, guided surgery and cases of fully computer-assisted surgeries via 3D printing guides and preformed plates are booming. Our project aims to study the performance and safety of custom-made implants (custom-made guides and plates) in orthognathic surgery in or…

Obesity is a serious health problem which increases the likelihood of developing other life-changing medical conditions. Despite increasing knowledge about the neural and metabolic basis of obesity, the development of effective anti-obesity treatment strategies has been a challen…
