This clinical investigation is intended to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of ventricular ablation therapy using the FlexAbility Sensor Enabled Ablation Catheter in patients with drug-refractory monomorphic ventricular tachycardia in whom ventricular tachycardia recurs despite antiarrhythmic drug therapy or when antiarrhythmic drugs are not tolerated or desired.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, pharmacokinetics and tolerability, describe the dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), and determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or maximum administered dose (MAD \[in the absence of establishing the MTD\]) for single agent MEDI2228 in adult subjects with multiple myeloma who are either transplant ineligible or post autologous stem cell transplant and are relapsed/refractory.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate daclatasvir in combination with sofosbuvir given to children with chronic hepatitis C infection

Ten patients with motor neurone disease (MND, also known as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis or ALS) will be successively enrolled to one of two dose levels of IC14 (human chimeric monoclonal anti-CD14) intravenously for four doses. Patients must be within 3 years of MND diagnosis and have adequate respiratory function. Safety, tolerability, immunogenicity, and PK/PD will be measured. To evaluate feasibility of the endpoints, additional endpoints of ALSFRS-R, respiratory function tests, disease biomarkers and patient-reported outcomes will be measured.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of pembrolizumab (MK-3475) in participants from previous Merck pembrolizumab-based parent studies who transition into this extension study. This study will consist of three phases: 1) First Course Phase, 2) Survival Follow-up Phase or 3) Second Course Phase. Each participant will transition to this extension study in one of the following three phases, depending on the study phase they were in at the completion of the parent study. Participants who were in the First Course Phase of study treatment with pembrolizumab or lenvatinib in their parent study will enter the First Course Phase of this study and complete up to 35 doses or more every 3 weeks (Q3W) or 17 doses or more every 6 weeks (Q6W) of study treatment with pembrolizumab or a pembrolizumab-based combination or lenvatinib according to arm assignment. Participants who were in the Follow-up Phase in the parent study (post-treatment or Survival Follow-up Phase) will enter the Survival Follow-up Phase of this study. Participants who were in the Second Course Phase in their parent study will enter Second Course Phase of this study and complete up to 17 doses Q3W or 8 doses Q6W of study treatment with pembrolizumab or a pembrolizumab-based combination according to arm assignment. Any participant originating from a parent trial where crossover to pembrolizumab was permitted upon disease progression may be eligible for 35 doses as Q3W or 17 doses Q6W of pembrolizumab (approximately 2 years), if they progress while on the control arm and pembrolizumab is approved for the indication in the country where the potential eligible crossover participant is being evaluated.

This study evaluated the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of the cytomegalovirus (CMV) vaccine (V160) administered in a 2-dose or 3-dose regimen to healthy seronegative women 16 to 35 years of age. Participants received blinded V160 on Day 1, Month 2, and Month 6 (3-dose regimen), V160 on Day 1 and Month 6 and placebo at Month 2 (2-dose regimen), or placebo on Day 1, Month 2, and Month 6, and were followed to approximately Month 24. The primary hypothesis of the study was that administration of a 3-dose regimen of V160 will reduce the incidence of primary CMV infection compared to placebo.

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of novel spartalizumab (PDR001) combinations in previously treated unresectable or metastatic melanoma

An open-label, dose-escalation study to assess safety, pharmacokinetics and efficacy as well as determine the recommended Phase 2 doses of co-administered therapy of dinaciclib and venetoclax for patients with relapsed or refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia (R/R AML).

Between 45-73% of people who have had a stroke fall over in the months and years following their stroke. Falls not only lead to injuries such as broken hips, but they may also lead to fear of falling. As a consequence people can get fearful to walk, keep up their household tasks and their social activities such as visiting friends and family. Research has shown that exercises for strength and balance can help both older people and patients after stroke to get fitter and healthier and help to prevent them from having a fall. People also have less falls if they have learned about falls facts and home safety precautions. Research has further suggested that people have less fear of falling and less injuries from a fall if they have learned how to fall ('safe landing' strategies). Based on these research findings the researchers have developed a new falls prevention programme called the Fall Monty Activity Programme (FallMAP). This programme aims to aid in functional recovery and reduce falls by combining a mix of activities such as falls education, strength and balance exercises, and activities that teach people how to get up from the floor and how to fall safely. Especially because people with residual impairments following a stroke have an increased risk of a fall, the feasibility of this programme will be tested in a small group of people after stroke first. This study is a first step in establishing whether the different components of the FallMAP are acceptable and practical for both patients after stroke and staff who deliver the program. In particular, it is important to evaluate if it is feasible to provide the seven combined components as one comprehensive programme. Secondly, the question whether participating in the programme can positively influence the participants' fear of falling, quality of life, leg strength, balance and mobility will be explored. If this feasibility study suggests the programme can work in the clinical setting, then a definitive randomised controlled trial will be proposed in order to look at whether the full programme is effective at reducing falls in patients after stroke.

To evaluate the effectiveness of 4 g Swisse High Strength Deep Sea Krill Oil (Superba BOOST) daily on pain reduction in adults with mild to moderate osteoarthritis of the knee compared to placebo over a 6 month period. This is a multicentre, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled parallel-arm study. Applicants will be eligible to participate if they have mild to moderate OA of the knee. Diagnosis of OA of the knee will be made according to clinical diagnosis, using the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) Criteria for the classification of Idiopathic OA of the Knee and the Kellgren-Lawrence grading scale. In addition, eligible applicants will have been experiencing knee pain on at least 4 days per week, for at least 3 months and they will report knee pain between 4 and 8 cm (inclusive) on a visual analogue scale (VAS) for the 7 days prior to Day 1 of the trial (Baseline). Severity of OA of the knee will be assessed based on X-ray performed at the Screening Visit using the Kellgren-Lawrence (KL) radiographic criteria, and participants with severe radiographic knee OA (KL joint space narrowing (JSN) above grade 3) will be excluded. Applicants will attend a screening visit following pre-screening assessments to assess their general health and eligibility for inclusion into the study. On Day 1 eligible participants will be randomly allocated to receive one of two study treatments. Participants will take the assigned treatments daily for six months. Participants will return to the clinic at 3 months and 6 months for study assessments. Participants will complete an online survey at 1, 2, 4 and 5 months to assess protocol compliance, adverse events and use of concomitant medications. Any queries from the survey will be followed up by phone call. A final participant online survey and phone call (if needed) will be conducted 28 days after the 6 month visit for a final safety assessment.
