Comparison Between Bipolar Transurethral Resection of the Prostate and Moses Assisted Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate
Introduction: Multiple studies have demonstrated the superiority of HoLEP in aspects such as transfusión rates or postoperative stay. On the other hand, no differences have been observed in terms of functional outcomes between both techniques, and surgical times reported in different studies tend to be longer for HoLEP. These results likely contribute to TURP, especially with bipolar energy (Bi-TURP), continuing to be considered by many the gold standard for surgical treatment of BPH. Sofware and hardware upgrades to the Lumenis Pulse 120H. system in 2017, delivered MOSES 2.0, a single-use laser fibre used to perform MOSES augmented HoLEP (MoLEP). MoLEP has shown to be superior in intraoperative outcomes when compared to traditional HoLEP. The availability of new morcellators might also decrease surgical time for HoLEP. This changing landscape for BPH endoscopic surgery deserves a re-evaluation of the differences between Bi-TURP and MoLEP. Primary Objective: To compare the hospital stay of patients of patients undergoing MoLEP with those undergoing Bi-TURP. Secondary objectives: * To compare the surgical time of MoLEP with that of Bi-TURP. * To compare the bladder catheterization time aCer MoLEP with that of Bi-TURP. * To compare the postoperative complication rate patients undergoing MoLEP with those undergoing Bi-TURP. * To compare functional results of patients undergoing MoLEP with those undergoing Bi-TURP. This study is a prospective multicentric randomized and controlled trial. The study compares two types of BPH surgery without changing standard medical practice. The study will include patients who are candidates according to standard medical practice for BPH surgery. Patients will be randomized to one of two groups of treatment. * The MoLEP group will receive surgical treatment with MoLEP. * The Bi-TURP group will receive surgical treatment with Bi-TURP. Surgical technique and postoperative care will follow standard clinical practice at each participating centre.
ORACLE: Observation of ResiduAl Cancer With Liquid Biopsy Evaluation
The purpose of ORACLE is to demonstrate the ability of a novel ctDNA assay developed by Guardant Health to detect recurrence in individuals treated for early-stage solid tumors. It is necessary that ctDNA test results are linked to clinical outcomes in order to demonstrate clinical validity for recurrence detection and explore its value in a healthcare environment subject to cost containment.
Concurrent Exercise Effects in Post-Bariatric Patients
This study aims to evaluate the effect of a 5-week concurrent exercise program (aerobic and resistance training) on muscle quality, body composition, functional response, and quality of life in individuals undergoing bariatric surgery. This is a single-center, prospective, longitudinal, non-randomized controlled clinical trial with two groups: intervention and control. A total of 84 adults aged 18 to 60 years who have undergone sleeve gastrectomy or gastric bypass and have a medical indication for metabolic rehabilitation will be recruited. The intervention group will complete a supervised concurrent exercise program for 5 weeks, consisting of two in-person sessions per week (10 sessions in total), while the control group will continue with usual care without participating in a structured exercise program. All participants will be assessed at two time points: baseline (postoperative week 4) and 7 weeks after baseline (after 5 weeks of intervention and 1 week of rest). The primary outcome will be muscle quality of the rectus femoris assessed by ultrasound (echo intensity). Secondary outcomes will include body composition (bioelectrical impedance analysis), functional performance (one-minute sit-to-stand test), and quality of life (Moorehead-Ardelt II questionnaire). Additionally, adherence to the exercise program in the intervention group will be evaluated as the percentage of attendance to supervised sessions, and its association with the magnitude of changes in outcomes will be analyzed under a dose-response framework. The results are expected to provide clinically relevant evidence on the effectiveness of exercise in the early postoperative period and to support the optimization of metabolic rehabilitation strategies after bariatric surgery.
BEATRIX: A Study to Learn About a Group B Streptococcus Vaccine in Healthy Pregnant Women and Their Babies
BEATRIX (group B strEptococcus mATeRnal and Infant VaX study) The purpose of this study is to learn about the safety and how the group B streptococcus (GBS) vaccine works in pregnant women and their babies. This study is seeking healthy pregnant participants: * aged 49 or younger who can join. * between 24 and 36 weeks of gestation ("Gestational age" is a medical term used to describe how far along your pregnancy is) * had a fetal ultrasound examination performed with no major fetal abnormalities observed * documented negative for HIV, syphilis and Hepatitis B All participants in this study will receive only 1 shot in an arm. This could either be a group B streptococcus 6-valent polysaccharide conjugate vaccine (GBS6) or placebo. Placebo is an inactive substance used in the study for comparison purposes; in this study, the placebo injection will be saline (saltwater). The pregnant participants may take part in this study for a maximum of 14 months (6 months after delivery) , and their babies for about 12 months after they are born. The pregnant participants will need to visit the research site at least 3 to 4 times with some visits permitted to occur over the telephone. A subset of infants will be asked to take part in the study for up to 19 months. The subset will receive diphtheria toxoid-containing vaccine and/or pneumococcal vaccine following each country's standard immunization plan and have blood drawn 1 month after completion of the primary and/or toddler (booster) doses.

A Study to Assess Adverse Events and Change in Disease Activity Comparing Oral Upadacitinib to Subcutaneous Dupilumab in Children From 2 to Less Than 12 Years of Age With Moderate to Severe Atopic Dermatitis
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a skin condition that may cause a rash and itching due to inflammation of the skin. Topical therapies applied over the skin may not be enough to control the AD in trial participants who require systemic anti-inflammatory treatment. This study compares upadacitinib to dupilumab in pediatric participants with moderate to severe AD who are candidates for systemic therapy. Adverse events and change in the disease activity will be assessed. Upadacitinib is an approved drug for treating AD patients aged 12 or older. Participants will receive upadacitinib (given as daily dose) or dupilumab (given at label indicated dose every 2 or 4 weeks). Participants will be stratified depending on disease severity, age and response to previous treatment. There is 1 in 5 chance for participants to receive dupilumab during the randomized cohort. Approximately 675 participants aged 2 to less than 12 years of age will be enrolled in this study at approximately 150 sites worldwide. The study population (As defined by participants age or prior treatment) to be enrolled in the study is dependent on local regulatory requirement and/or agreement. Participants will receive upadacitinib oral tablets once daily (or oral solution twice a day) for 160 weeks, or dupilumab as per its label for 52 weeks, and followed for 30 days after the last dose of upadacitinib and at least 12 weeks after the last dose of dupilumab. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care . Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by clinical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.
Simulation-based Training for Ultrasound-guided Popliteal Sciatic Nerve Block
The goal of this study is to evaluate whether remote asynchronous feedback is non-inferior to direct synchronous feedback during simulation-based training for ultrasound-guided popliteal sciatic nerve block performance. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does asynchronous feedback achieve technical skill acquisition outcomes comparable to direct synchronous feedback? Can asynchronous feedback optimize teaching resources without compromising training quality? Researchers will compare two feedback modalities within a simulation-based training program for deliberate practice of ultrasound-guided popliteal sciatic nerve block techniques. Participants will: Receive training with either direct synchronous feedback or remote asynchronous feedback Perform simulation-based deliberate practice sessions Be assessed using validated instruments for technical skill performance
A Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Autogene Cevumeran With Nivolumab Versus Nivolumab Alone in Participants With High-risk Muscle-invasive Urothelial Carcinoma (MIUC)
The original purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of adjuvant treatment with autogene cevumeran plus nivolumab compared with nivolumab in participants with high risk MIUC. In this study participants will be enrolled in a safety run-in phase to receive autogene cevumeran + nivolumab. This phase will be conducted to monitor and ensure the safety of study participants. After all participants in the safety run-in have been enrolled to receive autogene cevumeran + nivolumab, further participants will be randomized in either autogene cevumeran + nivolumab or the nivolumab monotherapy arm. Following the Sponsor's decision to phase out the study, as of Protocol Version 5, the primary purpose of the study is to ensure treatment continuity and safety for the participants who continue to participate in the study and receive study treatment.
