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.
To learn if TTI-101 can reduce the growth of HPV-negative squamous cell carcinomas of the head and neck when given before standard of care surgery.
Subjects will undergo SMILE surgery in one eye and LASIK using Contoura with Phorcides on the contralateral eye to correct myopia.
The purpose of the study is to determine the role of blood flow restriction (BFR) + neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) in improving post-operative physical therapy and recovery after ankle fracture surgery. We expect to see improved muscle strength, less muscle wasting, and improved functional recovery after surgery when making these additions to routine post-operative (postop) physical therapy protocols.
The proposed multicomponent digital health intervention has the potential to significantly impact the trajectory of maternal health in a rural, pregnant, Black adolescent population with the highest risks for cardiometabolic diseases worldwide. The proposed implementation strategy leverages mobile technologies which are ubiquitous across the socioeconomic gradient and proposes to train young adult WIC moms to deliver peer health coaching in a telehealth setting to address social barriers and support behavior change in pregnant, Black adolescent WIC clients in the Mississippi Delta - a rural region where the population is more than two-thirds percent Black and the teen birth rate is the highest in the United States. This is a scalable and sustainable approach to enhance WIC services and improve WIC's impact on population health and cardiometabolic health disparities in Black women.
The goal of this study is to determine the efficacy of the study drugs ribociclib and everolimus to treat pediatric and young adult patients newly diagnosed with a high-grade glioma (HGG), including DIPG, that have genetic changes in pathways (cell cycle, PI3K/mTOR) that these drugs target. The main question the study aims to answer is whether the combination of ribociclib and everolimus can prolong the life of patients diagnosed with HGG, including DIPG.
Mental disorders are among the leading causes of disability and morbidity worldwide, including Brazil, where despite having a comprehensive network of publicly-funded, free, community-based mental health treatment, it is estimated that only 26% of people with psychiatric conditions successfully connect to community-based care. The study team hypothesizes that the successful adaptation and implementation of an evidence-based model of peer support to Brazilian culture, will contribute to enhanced levels of engagement, improved continuity of care, and improvements in quality of life and wellbeing among persons living with SMI in Brazil. After this study, it will have established the feasibility, acceptability, safety and tolerability, of adapting a low-cost, culturally-responsive, evidence-based intervention to improve post-acute supports for people with SMI who access community mental health treatment.
Trans-arterial chemoembolization (TACE) is the most commonly used therapy for patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). TACE is a minimally invasive procedure that involves placing a catheter into the artery in the liver that feeds the tumor, administering chemotherapeutics and then blocking the artery with embolics in order to kill tumor cells by depriving them of essential oxygen and nutrients. While TACE has a proven survival benefit, local recurrence is common, and long-term survival rates are poor. Prior studies demonstrate that HCC cells survive the oxygen and nutrient deprivation through autophagy, a process of cellular self-eating, to provide nutrients required for survival. The proposed project will leverage this dependency to develop a novel approach to TACE that integrates autophagy inhibition to improve therapeutic response by increasing tumor cell killing and enhancing anti-tumor immunity.
This study will optimize, implement, and test the impact of our multicomponent health program that includes three primary implementation strategies (Cultural Weavers and co-creation, mHealth strategies using culturally meaningful text and voice messages, and care coordination). The investigators will use a participatory approach to engage community members in co-creating and optimizing our mHealth outreach and enhanced care coordination program components. The investigators will use a hybrid type 3 effectiveness-implementation sequential multiple assignment randomized trial (SMART) design to assess the impact of our multicomponent health program on implementation and outcome measures.
This study was designed using the Multiphase Optimization Strategy (MOST) framework to determine whether two supplemental components increase the efficacy of a mindfulness-based cognitive therapy program delivered via telephone (MBCT-T) for psychological distress. Specifically, this study will test mindfulness booster sessions to follow a standard 8-week MBCT-T intervention, as well as website support in patients with heart disease and/or heart disease risk factors.
The goal of this study is to perform genetic sequencing on brain tumors from children, adolescents, and young adult patients who have been newly diagnosed with a high-grade glioma. This molecular profiling will decide if patients are eligible to participate in a subsequent treatment-based clinical trial based on the genetic alterations identified in their tumor.
