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 purpose of this study is to use agnostic genomic evaluation using whole exome sequencing (WES) of a variety of rare hematologic diseases grouped under rare blood diseases and its variants to further elucidate the understanding of the chemistry of these disorders and identify potential actionable mutations that can be targeted with therapies in the context of clinical trials.
Background: Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant involves taking blood stem cells from a donor and giving them to a recipient. The transplants are used to treat certain diseases and cancers. Researchers want to see if the transplant can treat VEXAS Syndrome. Objective: To see if stem cell transplants can be successfully performed in people with VEXAS and even improve the disease. Eligibility: People ages 18-75 who have VEXAS Syndrome that has caused significant health problems and standard treatment either has not worked or is not available. Design: Participants will be screened with: Physical exam Medical review Blood and urine tests Heart and lung function tests Bone marrow biopsy Participants will have a chest x-ray. They will have an imaging scan of the head, chest, abdomen, pelvis, and sinus. They will have a bone density scan. They will have a dental exam and eye exam. They will meet with specialists. They will repeat some screening tests. Participants will be admitted to the NIH hospital. They have a central venous catheter put into a vein in the chest or neck. They will receive drugs to prepare their bone marrow for the transplant. They may have total body irradiation. They will receive the donor stem cells through the catheter. They will get other drugs to prevent complications and infections. After discharge, they must stay in the DC area for 3 months for weekly study visits. Participants will have study visits 30, 60, 100, 180, 210, 240, 300, and 360 days later. After that, they will have yearly visits for 2 years and then be contacted yearly by phone....
This phase II trial studies the effect of atezolizumab and cabozantinib in treating adolescents and young adults with osteosarcoma that has come back (recurrent) or has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Cabozantinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving atezolizumab and cabozantinib may help to control the osteosarcoma.
The researchers have developed games controlled by electromyographic (EMG) and inertial measurement unit (IMU) activity recorded by a sensor. These will provide biofeedback to participants post-stroke about the activity of their paretic muscles. The researchers anticipate that providing visual biofeedback will allow subjects to observe the level of co-activation in an agonist-antagonist muscle pair, and therefore initiate interventions to reduce their level of co-activation. Similarly, the researchers will provide additional haptic feedback using an assistive robot at the ankle joint (i.e., M1) and compare the results with the pure visual feedback condition. At the end, the main objective is to compare 1) conventional robotic continuous passive movement (CPM) training to 2) training with visual biofeedback and 3) training with both visual and haptic biofeedback.
This outpatient study is designed to examine the potential relationship between non-fatal opioid overdose and cognitive functioning. This study will also examine the impact of computerized working memory training on relevant outcomes (cognition, psychosocial functioning, quality of life, drug use). The training component of the study lasts 1 month, with follow up visits and 1-month and 3-months post training.
Emergency patients often have uncontrolled asymptomatic hypertension upon discharge from the emergency department. This 3-arm randomized controlled trial will evaluate the impact of nurse telehealth encounters and remote patient monitoring, using a software called Vital Tech, on blood pressure control and primary care engagement.
The Rezum system is an ablative procedure for patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). One of the limitations of the technology is the need for post-operative catheterization up to 5 days. The aim of this study is to assess the feasibility of employing Catheterless Rezum post-operatively in patients with normal or strong bladder contractility. Upon a positive outcome of interim analysis, the effectiveness of Catheterless Rezum will be assessed at five sites for the multicenter phase.
SY-2101 is being studied as a treatment for participants with a type of leukemia called acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL). SY-2101 is an oral formulation of a drug called arsenic trioxide (ATO). ATO is already used to treat APL in a formulation that is given as an intravenous (IV) infusion (through a needle in the arm). SY-2101 is a formulation of ATO that is taken orally (by mouth). This trial will include participants with APL in remission, who are receiving standard of care (SOC) treatment with all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) and IV ATO, during the consolidation phase of chemotherapy or within the past 6 months. The participants in this trial will receive continued treatment with ATO and ATRA to help keep their cancer from coming back. There will be some weeks when participants receive IV ATO and others when they receive SY-2101 (ATO taken orally). Participants with high-risk APL may be eligible for part 1 or 4 of the study for the 6 months following completion of their standard of care ATRA and ATO treatment.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of onabotulinumtoxin A (BOTOX) injection into the detrusor muscle on increasing bladder compliance to reduce urinary leakage in women suffering from stress urinary incontinence (SUI).
The target population for our study is healthy nulliparous pregnant women (first pregnancy) between the 12-16 week of pregnancy. If a subject is eligible, written consent will be obtained by person to person contact. Eligible participants will be randomized to receive either daily L-citrulline supplementation or placebo.
