To evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravenous (IV) administration of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell derived extracellular vesicles (EVs), ExoFlo, versus placebo for the treatment of hospitalized patients with moderate-to-severe Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS).
This is a Phase 2 multicenter, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study that will evaluate the safety and efficacy of host-directed therapeutics in hospitalized adults diagnosed with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) utilizing a platform trial design. Participants will be randomized to receive either a placebo or one of the active treatments. …
Prone position (placing the patient on his abdomen) has been shown to be an effective intervention to decrease mortality in adults connected to mechanical ventilation for moderate to severe Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). Patients may require one or more sessions of prone position. However, the optimal duration of prone …
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a major cause of mortality in intensive care units. Prone position ventilation (PPV) is an important component of ARDS management and has been shown to reduce mortality in patients with moderate-to-severe ARDS. However, substantial heterogeneity exists in treatment response to PPV. Previous studies suggest …
This trial is a prospective randomized multicenter trial that assigns patients to either a treatment for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) with an Extracorporal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) immediately after admission to the intensive care unit or conservative treatment. The later can undergo ECMO following failure of conservative therapy as a …
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is an acutely induced respiratory failure characterised by the appearance of bilateral alveolar opacities on imaging and hypoxemia(1). Among strategies that have proved beneficial in terms of patient outcome, prone position (PP) is one associated with the greatest impact in terms of reduction in mortality, …
Lung cancer is the leading cause of mortality in the world, and also in Taiwan.Despite the researches and availability in new therapies, it causes the highest mortality and is one of the most preventable cancers as well. Smoking is the most common cause of lung cancer worldwide. Compared to lung …
Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer-related mortality in Taiwan and globally, with increasing incidence and the highest healthcare cost burden among cancers in Taiwan. Despite the widespread use of low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) for screening smokers, over half of lung cancer cases in Taiwan occur in never-smokers, highlighting …
Brief Summary: This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate whether active remote symptom monitoring and management via a smartphone app utilizing electronic patient-reported outcomes (ePRO) can improve adherence to prescribed outpatient pulmonary rehabilitation exercises among postsurgical lung cancer patients. Eligible patients will use the app for perioperative care and be …
According to an analysis by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center patients who receive a target therapy having an oncogenic driver mutation live longer than those who do not receive it. In addition to that, therapies guided by analysis on mutations identified in ct-DNA had a favorable impact, allowing longer survival. …
