Clinical trials

Optic neuritis is an important cause of acute or subacute visual loss. In clinical practice, optic neuritis must often be distinguished from other optic neuropathies, retinal diseases, anterior-segment or ocular media disorders, non-organic visual loss, and other mimics. The 2022 International Criteria for Optic Neuritis were developed to standardize the diagnosis of optic neuritis, but their performance in Chinese clinical settings, where aquaporin-4 immunoglobulin G-positive and myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein immunoglobulin G-positive optic neuritis are relatively common, remains uncertain. This multicenter prospective observational study is enrolling patients with acute or subacute visual loss in whom optic neuritis is included in the differential diagnosis. The study is designed to evaluate the diagnostic performance of the 2022 International Criteria for Optic Neuritis alone and with an antibody-stratified adjunct. The index classifications will be compared with an expert-adjudicated reference-standard diagnosis. No experimental treatment is assigned by the study. All diagnostic tests and treatments are determined by the treating clinicians according to routine clinical care. Study data are collected using a structured protocol-defined case report form.

A multicenter, prospective, randomized controlled clinical trial. The target population consists of patients undergoing IVF/ICSI artificial reproduction who plan to undergo ovarian stimulation and embryo retrieval (DOR) within 4 months. A stratified block randomization method was employed to assign participants in a 1:1 ratio to the intervention group and control group. The study aims to investigate whether multiple-point ovarian cortex puncture during the initial oocyte retrieval procedure improves ovarian reserve and ovarian stimulation outcomes in DOR patients compared to conventional oocyte retrieval techniques.

This study evaluates our team's urology-specific AI (UroMed AI Doctor) for its safety, professionalism, knowledge and Q\&A ability, and tests its effectiveness against traditional manual urology care, to confirm if it can be a safe auxiliary tool and improve patients' preoperative experience. Before the study, we will test the AI with urology questions, compare it to international AI models (DeepSeek, ChatGPT, Google Gemini), and have two senior chief physicians evaluate it. In the clinical trial, patients at The First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University will be randomly split into two groups: AI-assisted care or traditional care by a specialist. Two senior specialists will evaluate both groups blindly; each group will get preoperative education (AI or physician), with anxiety and satisfaction surveyed. Subsequently, a multi-center validation will be conducted with 11 domestic and international hospitals.

The primary objective of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of spatially fractionated radiotherapy combined with the PraG strategy in the treatment of soft tissue sarcoma (STS). The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Can spatially fractionated radiotherapy combined with the PraG strategy improve the clinical prognosis of patients? 2. What medical adverse events and clinical problems will participants encounter during the treatment with spatially fractionated radiotherapy combined with the PraG strategy? Researchers will administer a combined therapeutic regimen consisting of spatially fractionated radiotherapy, Toripalimab, recombinant human granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor injection, and Thymalfasin injection to enrolled patients, so as to observe the efficacy and safety of this therapeutic strategy for soft tissue sarcoma. Participants will: 1. The treatment will be divided into two major phases: the radiotherapy phase and the immunotherapy phase, with concomitant immunomodulatory supportive therapy administered throughout the entire treatment course. 2. The total duration of treatment will last for 1 year starting from the first dose of medication, with regular clinical evaluations conducted according to the individual disease characteristics of each patient. 3. Participants will receive daily oral administration of ABC or placebo for a consecutive 4 months. 4. Routine follow-up examinations will be performed at an interval of 8/12 weeks. 5. Clinical symptoms, imaging indicators, biochemical parameters and survival status of all participants will be systematically recorded and documented throughout the study period.

A study to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of CLL-1-targeted CAR-T cell therapy in children aged 3 to 18 years with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (r/r AML).

Radiation-induced oral mucositis (RIOM) is an inevitable acute complication in radiotherapy for head and neck malignancies, characterized by a complex pathogenesis involving multiple biological processes. According to the latest data from the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), approximately 650,000 new cases of head and neck cancers are diagnosed globally each year, with about 70% of patients undergoing radiotherapy. RIOM develops through a multistep pathophysiological cascade, including initiation of mucosal injury, signaling amplification, inflammatory response, ulceration, and eventual healing. Ionizing radiation induces DNA damage in oral mucosal epithelial cells, triggering increased apoptosis. This cellular injury promotes the activation and release of pro-inflammatory mediators such as tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and interleukin-6 (IL-6), compromising the integrity of the mucosal barrier and ultimately leading to ulcer formation. Current clinical management of RIOM remains largely supportive, relying on oral hygiene, nutritional supplementation, and pain control, with no effective prophylactic agents available. Despite extensive research into potential interventions internationally, no drugs specifically approved by the FDA or NMPA for the prevention of RIOM have reached the market. This significant unmet clinical need calls for urgent scientific and therapeutic advancement. This study aims to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and safety profile of aerosolized exosomes derived from mesenchymal stem cells in the prevention and treatment of radiation-induced oral mucositis in patients receiving radiotherapy for head and neck cancers. The ultimate objective is to establish a novel and effective therapeutic strategy for clinical application.

Building on earlier exploratory work, this study further designs a multi-institutional, prospective, randomized clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the combination therapy of the immune checkpoint inhibitor Tislelizumab with CAPOX for neoadjuvant treatment in high-risk locally advanced MSS-type colorectal cancer, as well as its impact on patient outcomes. This study aims to provide new evidence for the clinical practice of treating MSS-type colorectal cancer.

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate and compare the efficacy and safety of three commonly used antiparasitic drugs-albendazole, tribendimidine, and praziquantel-for the treatment of clonorchiasis, a liver fluke infection acquired by consuming raw or undercooked freshwater fish. This study aims to answer the following primary questions: How effective is each drug in achieving parasitological cure, as measured by clearance of Clonorchis sinensis eggs in stool? What types and frequencies of adverse events are associated with each treatment? Participants in this randomized, open-label trial will: Be randomly assigned to receive one of the three study drugs according to a predefined dosing regimen. Provide stool samples before treatment and at follow-up to assess for Clonorchis sinensis eggs. Undergo a second round of the same treatment regimen and repeated stool examination if eggs are still detected after the first course. Attend follow-up visits, which include symptom assessment, blood tests (hematology and liver function), and abdominal ultrasonography focusing on hepatobiliary changes. Report any side effects, discomfort, or adverse reactions experienced during or after treatment. The findings from this study will help inform optimal therapeutic strategies for clonorchiasis in outpatient clinical settings.
