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.
Study the efficacy of a package of behavioral economics strategies (versus an education-only control condition) in altering clinician behavior regarding antibiotic prescription duration for skin and soft tissue infection (SSTI).
This project addresses the highly significant problem of developing effective strategies for facilitating withdrawal from opioid medications. The proposed work is conceptualized within the context of a well-known theoretical framework (Cognitive Activation Theory of Stress), and the research questions are theory-driven. The team proposes to evaluate an innovative web-based version of CBT-I followed by tapered withdrawal in a randomized trial in comparison to a Treatment As Usual control followed by tapered withdrawal. The dependent measures have been well-selected to effectively evaluate the outcomes. The methodological details are rigorous.
This is a phase 2, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, multicenter trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of 2 dose regimens of ARGX-117 versus placebo, in participants with MMN previously stabilized with IVIg (intravenous immunoglobulin).
Specific Aim: Feasibility of a Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) in Pregnancy and Infancy to Reduce Childhood Obesity Risk Factors in Early Life. The main outcomes are feasibility of the intervention components and data collection. Study will use maternal body mass index (BMI) and child weight-for-length outcomes to estimate sample size needed for a full-scale trial to test intervention efficacy. Primary analysis for full-scale trial power and sample size calculations will be conducted using child weight-for-length data at Child Age 12 Months Visit. Data collected will inform future interventions.
Multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 6- month study in subjects with mild to moderate Dementia with Lewy Bodies.
Innovative lifestyle strategies to treat type 2 diabetes (T2DM) are critically needed. At present, daily calorie restriction (CR) is the main diet prescribed to patients with T2DM for weight loss. However, many patients find it difficult to adhere to CR because calorie intake must be vigilantly monitored every day. In light of these problems with CR, another approach that limits timing of food intake, instead of number of calories consumed, has been developed. This diet is called "time restricted eating" (TRE) and involves confining the period of food intake to 6-8 h per day. TRE allows individuals to self-select foods and eat ad libitum during a large part of the day, which greatly increases compliance to these protocols. Recent findings show that TRE is effective for weight loss and improved glycemic control in patients with obesity and prediabetes. However no long-term randomized controlled trial has examined whether TRE is safe and effective for patients with obesity and T2DM. This study is a 6-month randomized, controlled trial that aims to compare the effects of TRE (eating all food between 12:00 pm to 8:00 pm, without calorie counting), versus CR (25% energy restriction daily), and a control group eating over a period of 10 or more hours per day, on change in body weight (%), glycemic control, and cardiometabolic risk factors, in adults with obesity and T2DM.
This phase II trial studies the effect of rectal spacer hydrogel before radiation therapy in reducing radiation dose to the rectum in patients with prostate cancer. Rectal spacer hydrogen is a soft gel material used to create a space between the rectum and prostate during radiation treatment. The rectal spacer gel is made up of 90% water and 10% polyethylene glycol and is injected as a liquid through a needle inserted between the rectum and prostate. It stays in place for about 3 months and is naturally absorbed into the body and removed through urine in about 6 months. By pushing the prostate further from the rectum with the hydrogel, it may help spare the rectum from receiving radiation during standard of care stereotactic body radiation therapy and brachytherapy treatment.
This study explores the use of the Hugo platform to involve study participants in their healthcare and treatments. The Hugo platform may allow researchers to collect better and more accurate real-time health data, from other clinics/hospitals, pharmacies and other electronic devices. The purpose of this research is to see if the use of the Hugo platform is consistent, accurate, cost effective, and time efficient, as it collects and transmits important real-time health information from other clinics/hospitals, pharmacies, and other electronic devices.
This global study (US, Canada, and Australia) will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the MiniMed 780G system in type 1 adult and pediatric subjects utilizing Fiasp (insulin aspart injection) in a home setting.
This study will evaluate the combination of a fixed dose pembrolizumab/vibostolimab co-formulation (MK-7684A) with etoposide/platinum chemotherapy followed by MK-7684A compared to the combination of atezolizumab with etoposide/platinum chemotherapy followed by atezolizumab in the first-line treatment of Extensive-Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer (ES-SCLC). The primary hypothesis is, with respect to overall survival, MK-7684A in combination with the background therapy of etoposide/platinum followed by MK-7684A, is superior to atezolizumab in combination with the background therapy of etoposide/platinum followed by atezolizumab.
