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.
This is a dose finding study of a novel radiopharmaceutical agent, 153Sm-DOTMP. It will be studied alone and then in combination with external beam radiotherapy. The study design includes six cohorts, Levels 1-6. The first three cohorts of participants will receive 153Sm-DOTMP alone, and if this is determined to be safe, subsequent cohorts will receive the radiopharmaceutical followed by external beam radiotherapy.
The purpose of this research is to assess the association between diet and pulmonary function during standardized EIB testing. Determine the effect of Vitamin C supplementation on airway inflammatory markers and bronchoconstriction after a standardized EIB test compared to usual diet and placebo control.
The investigators are performing this research study to find out if intravenous (IV) methylphenidate (commonly known as Ritalin) can help people recover faster from propofol sedation. The investigators also want to know how IV methylphenidate acts in the brain and whether IV methylphenidate is safe to take with an anesthetic (a drug or agent used to decrease or eliminate the feeling of pain by causing unconsciousness) without causing too many side effects. The brain's electrical activity will be studied and recorded using a machine called an electroencephalogram (EEG).
Non-Hispanic Blacks tend to report higher levels of pain, experience pain more frequently, and be under-treated for pain compared to non-Hispanic Whites. Acute (single session) exercise is known to be effective at reducing pain but it is unknown what effect chronic exercise training has on pain responses. The broad goal of this study is to determine whether regular exercise training is more effective at reducing pain responses in non-Hispanic Blacks compared to non-Hispanic Whites. The investigators are interested in comparing regular aerobic exercise training versus high-intensity interval training.
Most adolescents who receive human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine are vaccinated in pediatric practices, yet missed opportunities (MOs) for HPV vaccination occur often and lead to low HPV vaccination rates. This single arm evaluation (embedded within arm 1 of a 2-arm cluster randomized clinical trial (RCT)) will test the sustainability of improvement made in response to a bundled intervention including HPV vaccine communication, performance feedback and provider prompts to reduce MOs and increase HPV vaccination rates.
The purpose of this research study is to compare how well two treatments work for removing kidney stones. The two study groups include ureteroscopy with long/short pulse lithotripsy to remove kidney stones. Both of these options are considered standard of care and are used currently in surgery.
This study combines the immune checkpoint inhibitor pembrolizumab with the BITE antibody blinatumomab for the treatment of relapsed/refractory pre-B cell ALL. Pembrolizumab at the proposed dosing schedule has been very well tolerated in adult studies, including elderly and unfit patients, as well as in pediatric patients. Both blinatumomab and pembrolizumab are FDA-approved for use in children as well as adults. Phase I/II trials in adult patients have demonstrated safety and activity of pembrolizumab in combination with multiple agents. In this trial, the combination of pembrolizumab and blinatumomab will be investigated for toxicity as well as possible synergy in the treatment of relapsed/refractory pre-B cell ALL. This is a single institution investigator-initiated pilot study designed to test the safety and feasibility of combining pembrolizumab and blinatumomab immunotherapies in children, adolescents, and young adults with CD19 positive hematologic malignancies. The investigator will define the toxicity profile of the combination in two safety strata based on whether or not a patient has had a prior allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT), as they hypothesize that the immune toxicities may differ between strata. In addition, the overall response rate (CR/CRh) to this therapy will be estimated. Additional biologic correlates will be conducted to delineate the effect of the combination therapy on the patient's leukemia/lymphoma and T-cell populations and how this may influence response to therapy.
This study is to find out how well drug-eluting stents work as part of treatment for choanal atresia repair. Participants will be receiving surgical choanal atresia repair; half will get a drug-eluting stent placed, the other half will not.
The goal of this study is to observe the impact of caloric intake on ovarian reserve as measured by anti-müllerian hormone (AMH) levels and antral follicles (AFC) visualized on ultrasound. It has been shown that obesity negatively impacts these markers, but research is lacking regarding the influence of nutrition and caloric intake on fertility. This would give the investigators information on how diet may impact ovarian reserve in patients seeking fertility treatment.
This is a prospective randomized control trial of patients with unilateral impairment of the lower extremity after stroke. Patients will be randomized to intervention group and control group. Intervention group will receive one hour of intense massed practice of lower extremity either in the form of shaping or task practice. Control group will receive conventional physical therapy for 1 hour as per current standard of care that follows stroke clinical practice guideline.
