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 the study is to evaluate the PK, safety and tolerability of PF-06687234 and [124I]IB-PF-06687234 (simultaneously given) in subjects with moderate to severe Ulcerative Colitis or Crohn's Disease. The study used PET-CT scan imaging to assess the distribution of PF-06687234 and [124I]IB-PF-06687234 over 24 and 72 hours in colon (inflamed and non-inflamed), plasma, colon, liver, spleen, kidney and small intestine.
This study evaluates the use of ETC-1907206 in combination with dasatinib in certain types of blood cancers. The first phase of the study (1A) is designed to find the highest tolerated dose of ETC-1907206, while the second phase (1B) will assess the safety and tolerability of the recommended dose of ETC-1907206. ETC-1907206 has been designed to block the activity of an enzyme of the body known as Mnk kinase, which is thought to be involved in the development of a variety of cancers.
Non-traumatic intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) affects approximately 100,000 Americans yearly. Up to 30-50% of ICH is fatal, and those patients who survive are often left with significant neurologic dysfunction. In the past, medical management (e.g., control of hypertension, reversal of antiplatelet or anticoagulants) had been the most effective treatment for these patients, given the morbidity and mortality associated with open surgical treatment for evacuation of ICH. However, recent trials have demonstrated that minimally invasive stereotactic neurosurgical procedures to evacuate ICH are safe and result in improved outcomes for these patients. Initial attempts to evaluate the efficacy of surgical evacuation of ICH found no significant difference between medical management and standard craniotomy for surgical evacuation. Indeed, open surgery was often discouraged for these patients due to the significant morbidity and mortality associated with the surgical procedure itself. However, research has demonstrated that minimally invasive, image guided stereotactic frame-based and frameless methods are effective and safe for the placement of catheters for clot aspiration and fibrinolytic therapy of ICH in the basal ganglia and other deep seated regions. Larger randomized controlled trials have demonstrated that these minimally invasive approaches also offer clinical benefit for these patients.
Enso is a portable device for the treatment of chronic and acute types of musculoskeletal pain. This study is being designed as a single blind, sham-controlled randomized clinical trial.
This prospective, observational study will evaluate whether vitro testing of tumor tissue and white blood cells from patients with lung cancer who are being treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors and other standard of care approaches, predicts clinical response to these agents.
This pilot clinical trial studies how well social media listening works in improving clinical trial recruitment in patients with cancer. Social media listening and recruitment on Twitter may enhance enrollment for cancer-related clinical trials.
HITC001 is a single institution study to evaluate the efficacy of using a standardized protocol of surgery and radiation for patients with brain metastases in relapsed neuroblastoma.
The goal of this study is to evaluate the effect of white matter guided theta burst stimulation on episodic memory task performance in healthy older adults. The investigators aim to propagate the effect of theta burst stimulation from a superficial locus of stimulation (angular gyrus) to hippocampus and parahippocampal regions using white matter tract connection between these regions. Study activities and population group - for the study plans to recruit 20 healthy older adults who already have white matter scans acquired as part of another study performed by the Cabeza Lab at Duke University. Using tractography the exact site of stimulation on the cortical surface will be localized. An initial motor evoked potential (MEP) assessment will differentiate responders to theta burst stimulation from non responders. Responders will receive 1200 pulses of intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) or sham stimulation to the angular gyrus while they perform the encoding portion of an episodic memory task. There after, they will perform retrieval piece of the task and data analysis will compare these performances.
This phase II trial studies how well pembrolizumab and epacadostat work in combination treating patients with extensive stage small cell lung cancer. Monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may assist the immune system in recognizing cancer cells leading to elimination of those cells. Epacadostat may prevent down-regulation of T-cells, which means it can boost the immune system. Giving pembrolizumab and epacadostat together may work better than either drug alone in treating extensive stage small cell lung cancer.
This study evaluates the addition of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) to eye patching in the treatment of residual amblyopia in children ages 3 to 18 years old. Two thirds of participants will receive DHA along with eye patching, while one third of participants will receive a placebo along with eye patching.
