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.
The goal of this flexible single-subject design vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) study is to examine the behavioral, cognitive, and biorhythmic effects of VNS in children and adults with autism and developmental disabilities. The main aims are: - Pilot the creation of a profile for those who will respond to VNS with the long-term goal of designing clinical trials. - Examine the effects of VNS on a broad range of symptoms. Participants will select between 1, 2, or 3 months of daily VNS treatment and complete study visits each month.
This is a randomized controlled trial examining whether the use of misoprostol or pitocin, in combination with a foley catheter, is more effective at inducing labor in patients with a gravid BMI that is considered obese.
The MuSK myasthenia gravis 1000 study seeks to collect saliva samples from 1000 subjects with laboratory confirmed diagnosis of MuSK myasthenia to identify genetic variations associated with MuSK MG. The data collected may be used by researchers to gain a better understanding of the cause of MuSK MG and to identify biomarkers and targeted therapy for MuSK MG.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effect of an affect-based exercise prescription on moderate-vigorous physical activity participation among survivors of breast cancer who completed primary treatment within the last 5 years. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Do at least 50% of participants assigned to the affect-based exercise prescription engage in ≥90 minutes of moderate-vigorous physical activity by the end of 12-weeks follow-up? 2. What level of satisfaction do breast cancer survivors who receive the affect-based exercise prescription report relative to breast cancer survivors who receive an effort-based exercise prescription. 3. What proportion of participants assigned to the affect-based exercise prescription stay enrolled in the study relative to the number of participants who stay enrolled in the effort-based exercise prescription. All participants will: - Be assigned to either the Affect-based exercise prescription or the Effort-based exercise prescription. - Participate in two meetings with a member of the study team meant to help them get started increasing weekly exercise. These meetings are the same for all participants. - Be asked to wear an activity monitor and respond to brief surveys for 10 straight days at 4 points in time: Baseline, 2weeks, 6weeks, and 12weeks.
The participants of this study will be of any age who are exposed to at least 1 dose of odevixibat at any time during pregnancy (from 1 day prior to conception to pregnancy outcome) and/or at any time during lactation (up to 12 months of infant age or weaning, whichever comes first. This study will collect data obtained via a variety of sources, including enrolled pregnant or lactating participants, the healthcare providers (HCP) involved in their care or the care of their infants, if applicable, and Albireo pharmacovigilance. Study start date is either start of data collection or first patient enrolled whatever occurs earlier. The surveillance program is strictly observational; the schedule of office visits and all treatment regimens are determined by HCPs. Only data that are routinely documented in patients' medical records as part of usual care will be collected. No additional laboratory tests or HCP assessments will be required as part of this surveillance program.
Investigators will recruit up to 10 patients with Anxiety comorbid with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) from the outpatient clinics at MUSC. This pilot trial will be an open-label investigation of the safety and feasibility of transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) as a nonpharmacological wearable intervention used to manage anxiety and other neuropsychiatric symptoms at home, with patients/caretakers self-administering treatments. Each subject will undergo an initial in-person screening and be consented prior to participating in the study. This will be followed by an in-person training session with the subject (and caretaker if applicable), where they will learn how to self-administer taVNS and ask any pertinent questions. Participants will self-administer taVNS at home twice daily for 4 weeks. These treatments will not interfere with other aspects of their mental health care. Our investigators, over the prior 8 years, have demonstrated that taVNS is safe and feasible in the outpatient setting. Furthermore, investigators have recently demonstrated that taVNS is well tolerated and safely self-administered at home with remote monitoring. The investigators hypothesize that taVNS will be safe and feasible to administer at home in this new population. Results from this study may lead to further exploration of taVNS in this unique population.
The goal of this observational study is to investigate how bacterial populations from the intestine and mouth of patients change during the hospitalization period and evaluate if some populations of specific bacteria increase or decrease the risk of acquiring an infection or becoming colonized by pathogenic bacteria. Participants will have the following samples collected during enrollment: stool samples (maximum 2x/week), blood draws (1x/week), oral swab (1x/week).
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of GIGA-564 and identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) level(s) of GIGA-564 in participants with metastatic or locally advanced solid tumor malignancies.
The main aim of this study is to find out how more than one dose of TAK-279 changes the heart-rate corrected QT (QTc) interval of healthy adults. A QTc interval is a measurement on an electrocardiogram (ECG) and shows the time when the heart contracts until it finishes relaxing. Other aims are to learn about the effect of several doses of TAK-279 on other ECG measurements of healthy adults, how the body of a healthy adult processes TAK-279 and moxifloxacin (pharmacokinetics), and to learn about the side effects of TAK-279 and how well it is tolerated when given to healthy adults. The participants will be given TAK-279 and moxifloxacin or a placebo for 7 days. During the study, participants will need to stay at the clinic for 10 days.
A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-escalation study will be conducted in healthy volunteers. This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of ABP-745 following single (Part 1) and multiple (Part 2) oral doses.
