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 adverse effects of poverty at the individual, family, and community level on health outcomes for children are well-established. Material hardship, defined as difficulty meeting basic needs such as food, housing, and consumer goods, has been shown to have negative physical and emotional effects on both children and their parents. Diaper need, defined as a lack of sufficient supply of clean and dry diapers, is an example of a material hardship. Community-based studies of low-income families have demonstrated that between 30-50% of caregivers of young children expressed diaper need. Some of these caregivers with diaper need reported reducing diaper changes, a practice that is associated with diaper dermatitis and urinary tract infections (UTIs). These community-based studies have also shown that diaper need is associated with maternal depression and parental stress, even after adjusting for demographic factors and food insecurity. Diaper need may be a specific modifiable marker of caregiver stress and depression, beyond its role as an indicator of poverty. In this pilot, randomized controlled trial of low-income newborns and their caregivers the investigators will test the feasibility of supplying diapers as an intervention to infants in low-income families and assess if it can improve both a child's health and their caregiver's overall health.
In this clinical trial the investigators will evaluate an alternate treatment option, which was developed for teeth with incomplete roots, called Regenerative Endodontic Procedure (REP). This treatment works by harnessing the blood clot formed within the root canal from tissues surrounding the root as a scaffold for stem cells. These cells could help to increase the thickness and length of the root canal walls resulting in root end maturation. Results from the 50 participants who will receive the REP treatment will be compared with findings with historical data.
This is an open label, dose escalation, phase I study of the combination of MLN9708 plus Nelfinavir.
Study Synopsis This pilot study will determine the efficacy of a novel supplement protocol and low FODMAP diet for the treatment of small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO). The study will operate as a prospective, open label investigation, with an estimated sample size of 10 patients. Patients diagnosed with SIBO by Dr. Nathan Morris, MD at Good Medicine Clinic (Oxford, Ohio) will be offered the opportunity to enroll in this study, if inclusion and exclusion criteria are met upon initial diagnosis. No control group will be assigned. The diagnosis of SIBO will be determined via assessment of clinical symptoms and the results of a lactulose breath test. After administration of the supplement therapy and adherence to a low FODMAP diet (8 weeks), the lactulose breath test will be repeated and symptoms re-assessed by Dr. Morris. The post-treatment lactulose breath test and all supplements in the protocol will be provided free-of-charge to enrolled patients. In addition, enrolled patients will not be billed for the mid-treatment office visit. Patient and/or patient insurance will be responsible for all other expenses, including but not limited to the initial breath test, all other office visits and travel.
This study is a Phase 2, open-label, multicenter study evaluating adoptive cell therapy (ACT) with autologous TIL therapy (LN-145) in combination with Anti-PD-L1 inhibitor durvalumab.
This randomized phase II trial studies how well radiation therapy and pembrolizumab work in treating patients with urothelial bladder cancer that is restricted to the site of origin, without evidence of spread. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving radiation therapy and pembrolizumab may work better in treating urothelial bladder cancer.
Low back pain is a leading cause of disability and health care costs in the United States, and treatments are ineffective for many patients. Epidural steroid injections are a common treatment, but their efficacy has been questioned and for many patients they do not provide complete relief. The investigators hypothesize, based on preclinical studies, that lack of complete efficacy may be due to the fact that clinically used steroids activate not only the intended drug target, the glucocorticoid receptor, but also the pro-inflammatory mineralocorticoid receptor. To test this hypothesis, this pilot study will recruit patients scheduled for lumbar epidural steroid injections for degenerative disc disease, and randomize them to receive a concurrent treatment with oral eplerenone (a clinically approved antagonist of the mineralocorticoid receptor) or placebo for 10 days starting just after the epidural injection. At several time points during the following year, subjects will answer the Oswestry Low Back Pain Questionnaire, to report on both pain and functional outcomes.
The purpose of this study is to determine the absolute bioavailability of bexagliflozin following a single oral dose co-administered with an intravenous dose.
This is a study of experimental medication BMS-986205 given with Nivolumab with or without chemotherapy compared to chemotherapy in participants with previously untreated stage IV or recurrent non-small cell lung cancer.
The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of passive vibration (PV) in improving balance and sensation in patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN).
