A Digital Therapeutic Platform for Swallowing and Drooling Problems in Parkinson's
The purpose of this study is the development and early-stage validation of a wearable sensor for dysphagia in patients with PD.
Biomechanical Effects of EMST® on Swallowing Function in Parkinson's Disease
The aim of this non-randomized intervention study is to investigate the detailed effects of a structured four-week EMST® training program on the biomechanics of swallowing function in dysphagic Parkinson's patients. A combination of fiberoptic endoscopic evaluation of swallowing (FEES) and pharyngeal high-resolution manometry (HRM) will be employed to comprehensively evaluate …
Surgery or Chemoradiotherapy for Cervical Esophageal Cancer
To compare surgery with definitive chemoradiotherapy for patients with resectable cervical esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.
Neoantigen Vaccines in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
The aim of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of consolidation therapy with a neoantigen-loaded dendritic cell vaccine (NeoDC-Vac) following radical chemoradiotherapy or chemoradiation-immunotherapy in patients with locally advanced, unresectable ESCC. The primary endpoint of the study is the OS rate. Secondary endpoints include OS, PFS, …
Predicting Esophageal Cancer Borders Using PET-Imaging
The study examines the diagnostic precision of endosonography, mpMRI and PET/CT in defining tumor boundaries and tumor spread before and after neoadjuvant therapy and definitive surgery.
Evaluation of the Functional Status of Jejunoplasty and Coloplasty and Its Impact on Quality of Life (CEREC)
The goal of this prospective population-based cohort study is to assess: The evolution of the functional status of patients undergoing complex esophageal reconstruction Its impact on quality of life, depending on the type of conduit performed. Participants Will be asked to complete different quality of life questionnaires during every follow-up …
MuScle WastIng and DysphaGia iN CriticAlly IlL Patients (SIGNAL)
The goal of this study is to find out how muscle wasting in the mouth and throat affects swallowing (dysphagia) in adults who are critically ill and being treated in intensive care units. The main aims of this research study are to understand: how much and how quickly the oral …
Ultrasound vs. Nasofibroscopy for Evaluating Dysphagia After Extubation in the ICU
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the diagnostic performance and concordance of bedside cervical ultrasonography compared to Fiberoptic Endoscopic Evaluation of Swallowing (FEES) for the early detection of post-extubation dysphagia in critically ill adult patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: What is the degree …
Effect of Dupilumab on the Muscle Function of the Esophagus (food Pipe) in Participants with Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE)
The goal of this study is to research Dupilumab, an FDA approved medication in treating patients diagnosed with Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). The drug works by controlling allergic inflammation of the esophagus. The esophagus is a food pipe that transfers food from the mouth into the stomach. Participants with EoE have …
A Study of Dupilumab in Small Children With an Allergic Condition of the Esophagus (Food Pipe): Eosinophilic Esophagitis
This study is researching an experimental drug called dupilumab (called "study drug"). The study is focused on children with active eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE; an inflammatory disease of the esophagus) which impacts feeding and nourishment. The aim of the study is to see how safe, tolerable, and effective the study drug …
