Kansas Paid Clinical Trials

This study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of dipraglurant in PD patients with dyskinesia (randomized 1:1 to receive active or placebo) for 12 weeks (1 week at 150 mg per day and 11 weeks at 300 mg per day). The primary efficacy assessment will be based on the Unified Dyskinesia Rating Scale (UDysRS). Patients who complete the 12-week blinded treatment period may have the option to roll into an open-label safety extension study for an additional 12-month treatment period. Read Less

Background: During the hepatology evaluation, vibration-controlled transient elastography (VCTE) is often used as a clinical decision aid to target high-risk patients for liver biopsy. The enhanced liver fibrosis (ELF) test is expected to be approved in the US. We tested the hypothesis that making the ELF results available to the treating hepatologist will result in more appropriate and targeted use of liver biopsy in patients with elevated liver enzymes or fatty liver, and will result in more cases of advanced fibrosis/cirrhosis being diagnosed. Methods: During the hepatology evaluation for elevated liver enzymes or fatty liver at the University of Kansas Medical Center, the hepatologists (8 total) make a clinical decision on whether patients shall receive VCTE. At the end of the clinic visit, patients were enrolled and randomized to receiving an ELF test. Patients with liver biopsy within the last five years or decompensated cirrhosis were excluded. The primary outcome is the rate of a diagnosis of F3-4 fibrosis based on liver biopsy or clinical diagnosis of cirrhosis with the initiation of hepatocellular carcinoma surveillance. Four hundred fifty patients are to be enrolled over two years. Read Less

This open-label study is designed to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of dipraglurant in PD patients for up to 52 weeks (at doses of 150-300 mg per day) for patients that have completed an Addex sponsored double-blind clinical trial of dipraglurant. Read Less

The primary objective of this study is to validate the use of an electronic clinical decision support (CDS) tool, TriageGO with Monocyte Distribution Width (TriageGO-MDW), in the emergency department (ED). TriageGO-MDW is non-device CDS designed to support emergency clinicians (nurses, physicians and advanced practice providers) in performing risk-based assessment and prioritization of patients during their ED visit. This study will follow an effectiveness-implementation hybrid design via the following three aims (phases), to be executed sequentially: (Aim 1) Validate the TriageGO-MDW algorithm locally using retrospective data at ED study sites. (Aim 2) Deploy TriageGO-MDW integrated with the electronic medical record (EMR) and perform user assessment. (Aim 3) Evaluate TriageGO-MDW in steady state with respect to clinical, process, and perceived utility outcomes. Read Less

Children with Specific Language Impairment (SLI) are slower to learn new words than their peers, placing them at risk for academic failure. In this study, we are improving a storybook reading treatment to help Kindergarten children with SLI learn new words. In this study, we compare three versions of book reading that vary in how often children are tested on, meaning asked to talk about, the words they are learning in the book: low vs. mid vs. high testing. We then examine which version of the treatment leads to better learning of the words during treatment and remembering of the words after treatment. We also seek to understand individual differences in treatment outcomes by examining pre-treatment predictors as well as progress during and after treatment. Read Less

The primary aim of this study is to investigate potential differences in vascular function between patients receiving 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) chemotherapy, patients receiving chemotherapies other than 5-FU, cancer survivors who were treated with 5-FU, and an age and sex matched control. 5-FU is the third most commonly administered chemotherapeutic agent and its use is associated with the second most occurrences of cardiotoxicity. Despite the known cardiotoxic effects of 5-FU, it's effects on the human vasculature are not well understood. To achieve the goals of this project Laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF) will be used to assess blood flow within the skin microcirculation of the forearm in cancer patients who have received 5-Fluoruracil within the past 30 days (Experimental Group), cancer patients receiving radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy other than 5-Fluorouracil, and an age and sex matched control (Control Group). LDF utilizes a small (~3 cm) non-invasive sensor placed on the skin. The sensor shines light into the skin, and upon contact with red blood cells (RBCs), the light is reflected and scattered. This information is used to evaluate microvascular blood flow and has previously been used in clinical populations. Read Less

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-response trial in patients with chronic stable Heart Failure (HF) and reduced Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) to evaluate the efficacy and safety of three INL1 doses compared with placebo. Patients will be treated for approximately 12 weeks with one of three INL1 doses: 50 mg, 150 mg, 300 mg, or, placebo capsules, taken twice daily (BID). Read Less

This study evaluates the clinical benefit of TAS-102 in participants with metastatic urothelial carcinoma who are resistant to cisplatin or carboplatin front-line and checkpoint inhibitors as second line therapy. All participants will receive TAS-102 in oral form twice per day on Days 1-5 and Days 8-12 of each 28 day cycle. Read Less

The primary objective of the Phase 1 part of the study is to determine the recommended dose of APVO436 administered intravenously to patients with AML or MDS. The primary objective of the Phase 1b part of the study is to evaluate the clinical activity of APVO436 in patients with AML or MDS. APVO436 is being studied in this Phase 1b, open-label, multi-center, two-part dose-escalation/dose expansion study to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD), and clinical activity of APVO436 in patients with AML and MDS. The study will be conducted in 2 parts. The first part of this Phase 1B study is an open-label, multiple dose ascending dose escalation phase to determine the recommended dose (RP2D) level of APVO436 for future Phase 2 studies. The goal of the dose expansion phase of the study (Part 2) is to (i) evaluate the safety and tolerability of APVO436 at the RP2D level when it is used as an adjunct to the standard of care and (ii) obtain a preliminary assessment of the anti-leukemia activity of APVO436-containing experimental monotherapy and combination therapy modalities. Study Objectives for Dose Escalation Phase Primary Objectives are to: Determine the RP2D level of APVO436 administered intravenously (IV) in patients with AML or MDS, and Evaluate the safety and tolerability of APVO436 at the RP2D level when it is used as an adjunct to the standard of care and obtain a preliminary assessment of the anti-leukemia activity of APVO436-containing experimental monotherapy and combination therapy modalities. Secondary Objectives are to: Define the safety profile and immunogenicity of APVO436; to determine the PK/PD of APVO436; to evaluate the clinical activity of APVO436 in AML and MDS patients. Further evaluate the safety profile and immunogenicity of APVO436 and the PK/PD of APVO436 and the relationship between PK/PD and clinical response. Study Objectives for Dose Expansion Phase Primary Objective is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of APVO436 at the RP2D level when it is used as an adjunct to the standard of care. Secondary Objective is to obtain a preliminary assessment of the anti-leukemia activity of APVO436-containing experimental monotherapy and combination therapy modalities. Read Less
