Quizartinib or Placebo Plus Chemotherapy in Newly Diagnosed Patients With FLT3-ITD Negative AML

This is a clinical trial to compare the effect of quizartinib versus placebo (administered with standard induction and consolidation chemotherapy, then administered as maintenance therapy for up to 36 cycles) on the primary endpoint of overall survival (OS) in adult patients with newly diagnosed FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3)-internal tandem duplication (ITD) negative acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Participants will be tested for FLT3-ITD mutation status in a central laboratory using a validated assay.

A Study of Combination Therapy With Amivantamab and Docetaxel in Participants With Metastatic Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

A Phase 3 Study to Evaluate Petosemtamab Plus Pembrolizumab Vs Pembrolizumab in First-line Treatment of Head and Neck Cancer

This is a Phase 3 randomized, open-label study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of petosemtamab plus pembrolizumab vs pembrolizumab in first-line treatment of recurrent or metastatic PD-L1+ HNSCC. HNSCC patients should not have had previous systemic therapy administered in the recurrent or metastatic setting, although previous systemic therapy as part of multimodal treatment for locally advanced disease is allowed if PD was ≥6 months after the last platinum-containing therapy dose. Previous treatments with anti PD-(L)1 or anti-EGFR therapies are not allowed. In the case of cetuximab, patients who have received cetuximab with radiotherapy as a local treatment and PD was >1 year after the last dose of cetuximab are eligible.

ADSCs Therapy in Patients With CTD-ILD

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are adult multipotent cells with self-renewal capacity, and have immunomodulatory function. By virtue of these properties, they have an ability of tissues repairing as well as regeneration, and have immunomodulatory function through an interaction with immune cells. Compared with other MSCs, adipose tissue derived-MSC (AD-MSC) are attainable by a less invasive method, grow robustly, and have a high proliferation capacity and a low immunogenicity. Recently, AD-MSC is widely employed in the field of cardiovascular diseases and autoimmune diseases without the emergence of serious adverse events. This is a Phase I/IIa, open-labelled (without placebo group) clinical trial to treat refractory or rapidly progressive ILD in 10 patients with CTD by intravenous transfusion with allogenic AD-MSC. After signing the informed consent, CTD-ILD patients will be enrolled in this trial, including pre-treatment evaluation, admission for intravenous transfusion with AD-MSC, and post-infusion follow-up. The initial 3 subjects will receive low-dose AD-MSC (1x10E6 cells/kg) infusion therapy only once; if no adverse events after 4 weeks, the next 4-7 subjects will receive AD-MSC (1x10E6 cells/kg) infusion therapy twice; if no adverse events after 4 weeks of the last infusion, the next 8-10 subjects will receive AD-MSC (1x10E6 cells/kg) infusion therapy three times. The major aims of this trial are to improve the outcome of CTD patients with refractory ILD or rapidly progressive ILD, and identify an optimal dose of the used AD-MSC

Dual Modulation of Sigma-1 and NMDA Receptors in the Treatment of Schizophrenia

The current treatment for schizophrenia remains unsatisfactory; thus, development of new treatments is vital. Both sigma-1 receptor (S1R) dysfunction and NMDA receptor (NMDAR) hypofunction contribute to pathogenesis of schizophrenia, especially treatment-resistant schizophrenia. Several S1R agonists have been tested for its potential for schizophrenia treatment; however, its efficacy appears limited. In addition, previous studies also found that some NMDA-enhancing agents were able to augment efficacy of antipsychotics in the treatment of chronic schizophrenia. Whether combined treatment of an S1R agonist and an NMDA-enhancer (NMDAE) can be better than an S1R agonist alone deserves study. Therefore, this study aims to compare an S1R agonist plus an NMDAE and an S1R agonist plus placebo in the treatment of treatment-resistant schizophrenia. The subjects are the patients with treatment-resistant schizophrenia who have responded poorly to two or more kinds of antipsychotics treatment. They keep their original treatment and are randomly, double-blindly assigned into two treatment groups for 12 weeks: (1) S1R agonist (S1RA) plus NMDAE, or (2) S1RA plus placebo. Clinical performances and side effects are measured at weeks 0, 2, 4, 6, and 8. Cognitive functions are assessed at baseline and at endpoint of treatment by a battery of tests. The efficacies of S1RA plus NMDAE and S1RA plus placebo will be compared. Chi-square (or Fisher's exact test) will be used to compare differences of categorical variables and t-test (or Mann-Whitney test if the distribution is not normal) for continuous variables between treatment groups. Mean changes from baseline in repeated-measure assessments will be assessed using the generalized estimating equation (GEE). All p values for clinical measures will be based on two-tailed tests with a significance level of 0.05.

Perioperative NALIRIFOX (liposomal Irinotecan in Combination with Fluorouracil, Leucovorin, and Oxaliplatin) in Resectable Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma: Randomized Phase II Trial

Adjuvant chemotherapy after surgery significantly improved the survival of pancreatic cancer patients, but there is a problem that only about 50% of patients start adjuvant chemotherapy after pancreatectomy. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy might control potential metastatic lesion which are not being detected in early disease status and improve the R0 resection rate. Additionally, it prevents unnecessary surgeries by selecting patients with rapid disease progression. Furthermore, compared with chemotherapy administered after surgery, more patients can complete the planned chemotherapy schedule in neoadjuvant setting. NALIRIFOX was approved its efficacy and safety in metastatic pancreatic cancer, but its role in perioperative setting is unknown. In this study, we want to o explore the safety and activity of NALIRIFOX in the perioperative and adjuvant treatment in resectable pancreatic adeneocarcinoma.

Difference of Tear Ferning Between Women with and Without Menopausal.

Analyzing the difference in tear ferning structure between women pre and post-menopause with and without hormone replacement therapy (HRT). Tear and blood samples were collected for a menopause-related Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Tear volume, tear osmolarity, intraocular pressure, and tear break-up time were also measured for comparison.
