Trial Summary

What is the purpose of this trial?

This trial is testing a new device called Nu-V3 that you wear on your ear. It sends gentle electrical signals to help with chronic pain, anxiety, depression, and trouble sleeping. The study focuses on people who have these ongoing symptoms and aims to see if the device can improve their quality of life.

Will I have to stop taking my current medications?

The trial requires that participants have not changed their medications for pain, anxiety, depression, or sleeplessness in the last 60 days. If you have changed these medications recently, you may need to wait until a 60-day period without changes is met before joining the trial.

Is the treatment Nu-V3 safe for humans?

The treatment NVX-CoV2373, also known as Nuvaxovid or the Novavax COVID-19 Vaccine, has been shown to have an acceptable safety profile in adults based on several clinical trials.12345

Findings from Research

The NVX-CoV2373 COVID-19 vaccine demonstrated high efficacy rates of 89.7-90.4% in clinical trials, indicating it is effective in preventing COVID-19 in adults aged 18 and older.
The vaccine has an acceptable safety profile, with most adverse reactions being mild to moderate, and serious adverse events occurring at similar low rates in both NVX-CoV2373 and placebo groups, suggesting it is safe for use.

A study analyzing 4,339 adverse events (AEs) associated with radium-223 from the Eudra-Vigilance database found that the most common AEs were hematological, general, and gastrointestinal disorders, with over 90% classified as serious and 8% fatal.
Older patients (over 85 years) treated with radium-223 showed a higher risk of cardiac, infectious, and metabolic disorders compared to younger patients, indicating the need for careful monitoring in this age group.

A total of 40,599 adverse events (AEs) were reported for enzalutamide (ENZ) and 13,562 for abiraterone (ABI) in the EudraVigilance database, with over 90% of these AEs classified as serious, indicating significant safety concerns for both treatments.
Older patients (over 65 years) treated with ABI or ENZ are at a higher risk for serious health issues, such as cardiac and infectious disorders, compared to younger patients, highlighting the need for careful monitoring in this age group.
