A Study Evaluating Single-agent Inavolisib and Inavolisib Plus Atezolizumab in PIK3CA-Mutated Cancers
The purpose of the study is to assess the safety and efficacy of inavolisib as a single-agent and in combination with atezolizumab in participants with phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase catalytic subunit alpha isoform (PIK3CA)-mutated cancers, including previously treated head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC).
Open Lung Protective Extubation Following General Anesthesia
Perioperative respiratory complications are a major source of morbidity and mortality. Postoperative atelectasis plays a central role in their development. Protective "open lung" mechanical ventilation aims to minimize the occurrence of atelectasis during the perioperative period. Randomized controlled studies have been performed comparing various "open lung" ventilation protocols, but these …

Prospective randomized controlled trial comparing low dose Prednisone(or Prednisolone)/Methotrexate combination to standard dose Prednisone(or Prednisolone) in patients diagnosed with acute active clinically manifest cardiac sarcoidosis and not yet treated. The Investigators hypothesize that low dose Prednisone(or Prednisolone)/Methotrexate combination will be as effective as standard dose Prednisone(or Prednisolone), and result in …
The MARVIN Chatbots to Provide Information for Different Health Conditions
This research is a continuation of a usability study with the MARVIN chatbot. The investigators aim to adapt the MARVIN chatbot to open it to other health domains (e.g. breast cancer) and populations (e.g. pharmacists). Therefore, this protocol constitutes a master research protocol that will englobe different research projects with …
Effectiveness of Empagliflozin Added to Automated Insulin Delivery (AID) Systems in Adults With Type 1 Diabetes With Sub-optimal Glycemic Outcomes
The goal of this 26-week multicenter, randomized, parallel, placebo-controlled trial is to test the effectiveness of empagliflozin use in conjunction with automated insulin delivery (AID) to improve glucose control in individuals with type 1 diabetes who do not meet target recommendations for time in range (3.9-10.0 mmol/L). The main question …
Effects of a Supervised Rehabilitation Program on Disease Severity in Spastic Ataxias
Spastic ataxias are a group of diseases causing symptoms such as walking difficulties and balance impairments that lead to a high risk of falls. No pharmacological treatments exist to treat these diseases. Unfortunately, little effort is made to develop non-pharmacological treatments specific to spastic ataxias despite the detrimental impact of …
