There are about 173942 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in United States. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
To gain insight and perspective unique to individuals with a diagnosis of PTSD, this study will utilize an experiential one-to-one interview format. During the interview, an investigator will walk the participants through several aspects of an ANS battery of tests, provide a tour and information about other equipment in the research lab and discuss tools and procedures associated with the application of chiropractic care. The aim of this research is to provide insight for future study designs that assess or provide care to individuals with PTSD.
It is important to recognize the potential for renal injury and be cognizant of this during the management of complex trauma patients. The primary aim of this study is to investigate the necessity of aminoglycoside usage for patients with open lower extremity fractures. Hypothesis: adding aminoglycoside on top of cephalosporin in treating lower extremity fracture will make no significant difference in term of clinical outcomes when compared to cephalosporin alone.
The goal of this phase I trial is to evaluate the toxicity and feasibility of a tumor-specific RNA-NP vaccine in patients with stage IIB-IV melanoma who have progressed on anti-PD1 (a-PD1) adjuvant therapy.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the reliability and responsiveness of symptoms, endoscopic, and histological items for assessing pouchitis disease activity in patients undergoing standard of care (SOC) antibiotic therapy for treatment of pouchitis, in order to develop a novel pouchitis disease activity index.
Background: CAR T-cell therapy is a promising new treatment for blood cancers. During treatment, a person s T-cells are genetically changed to kill cancer cells. Researchers want to learn more about the effects of potential problems that may be associated with this treatment. We are specifically interested in learning if and how this treatment may affect the brain or your thinking skills. Objective: To learn if CAR T-cell therapy can affect how children and adults think, process, and remember things. Eligibility: People aged 5-35 who have blood cancer that has not responded to treatment, or the blood cancer has come back after treatment, and who will receive CAR T-cell therapy. Caregivers are also needed. All participants must be able to speak and read in English or Spanish. Design: Participants will be screened with a medical history. Information from participants medical records will be collected. Participants will take tests at home or at NIH to see how well they think, read, learn, remember, reason, and pay attention. The tests will be both computerized and paper/pencil. They will take less than 1 hour to complete. Participants and a parent/adult observer will complete a 5-minute Background Information Form and a checklist of nervous system symptoms. If participants are 5 years or older, they will participate in activities to test their ability to do different thinking tasks, like answer questions, complete puzzle patterns, and remember things. Participants and their caregivers will complete questions to see if they are having specific symptoms related to receiving CAR T-cells. The questions will assess their well-being and needs. The questions will take less than 1 hour to complete. Some tests and questions will be repeated at different time points in the study. Participation will last for up to 3 years.
This Phase 1a/1b study will evaluate the safety, tolerability and the pharmacokinetics/ pharmacodynamics (PK/ PD) of KT-413 in patients with R/R NHL. The Phase 1a stage of the study will explore escalating doses of single-agent KT-413. The Phase 1b stage will be split into 2 expansion cohorts to further characterize the safety, tolerability and the pharmacokinetics/ pharmacodynamics (PK/ PD) of KT-413 in MYD88 mutant and MYD88 wild-type R/R DLBCL.
Pregnancy ends in preterm birth (PTB) for approximately 1 in 10 women, though more often for Non-Hispanic Black women, 14.12% PTB rate, compared to 9.09% for Non-Hispanic White women. Psychosocial stress and childhood trauma each are associated with risk for PTB and PTB has an intergenerational impact: mothers born preterm are more likely to give birth pretern, especially amongst Black women. In this project, we will study mitochondria, which contain their own genome, the mitochondria DNA, and are inherited from the mother, as they represent a potential intersection point between psychosocial experiences and their biological embedding in underlying disease outcomes such as PTB
This phase II trial tests whether [18F]FluorThanatrace by positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) can improve imaging techniques in patients with breast cancer undergoing a standard of care biopsy or surgery. [18F]FluorThanatrace is a new radioactive tracer, which is a type of imaging agent that is labeled with a radioactive tag and injected into the body to help with imaging scans. PET is an established imaging technique that utilizes small amounts of radioactivity attached to very minimal amounts of tracer, in the case of this research, [18F]FluorThanatrace. Because some cancers take up [18F]FluorThanatrace it can be seen with PET. CT utilizes x-rays that traverse body from the outside. CT images provide an exact outline of organs and potential inflammatory tissue where it occurs in patient's body. [18F]FluorThanatrace by PET/CT may help detect the activity of a certain enzyme in the body that may be related to cancer growth in patients with breast cancer.
This clinical trial will have 2 components: a brief dose-ranging study and a randomized comparison of 2 doses of AdKCNH2-G628S with control cardiac surgery patients. The study will assess safety of the intervention in a population at increased risk for post-operative atrial fibrillation.
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia worldwide. AF is associated with obesity and the co-morbidities of obesity, including hypertension and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) which increase left atrial (LA) size and decrease LA function. Semaglutide, a Glucagon-like peptide receptor 1 agonist (GLP-1 RA), is currently approved by the Food and Drug Administration for weight loss for individuals with and without diabetes. The effects of pharmacologic weight loss with Semaglutide on AF are unknown. The investigators plan on conducting a randomized controlled trial of semaglutide versus placebo in individuals with paroxysmal or early persistent AF (>10% AF burden on ambulatory monitoring, a previous electrical cardioversion, or AF lasting ≥ 7 days but < 3 months who have a body mass index ≥ 27.0 kg/m2. The trial will last for 52 weeks. The primary outcome will be the change in AF burden for 2 weeks, immediately before starting the medication or placebo to two weeks starting at week 50, as determined by an implantable loop recorder or two week ambulatory Additional outcomes will be change in epicardial adipose tissue as determined by chest/abdomen/pelvis computed tomography scan at enrollment and at week 52, change in apnea-hypopnea index from baseline sleep study to week 52 sleep study, change in LA longitudinal strain from baseline echocardiogram to echocardiogram at 52 weeks, and change on symptom surveys.
