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.
This is a study with 2 parts. Part 1 comprises a visit to collect biological samples necessary for the molecular characterization of chronic kidney disease. Part 2 comprises an observational period of 5 visits over a period up to 8 weeks. During Part 2, baseline tests will be conducted, and urine will be collected approximately every 2 weeks for 8 weeks. Patients may participate in Part 1, Part 2, or both, and will be followed for up to 1 year consisting of data collection from the patient's medical records and home collection of urine samples every 4 months.
This is a phase II trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of the combination of Ibrutinib and Rituximab as primary treatment of chronic GVHD. We plan to enroll 35 patients on this study. Patients will be formally monitored monthly for 12 months to evaluate for outcome and safety endpoints. All other assessments will be done at the physician's discretion or institutional standards. All patients, responders and treatment failures, will be followed for a period of one year from the time of initiation of therapy. The primary endpoint will be the proportion of patients that are alive and off all systemic IST at 12 months following initiation of treatment.
The primary objective is to determine whether 12 weeks of treatment with Lysulin, compared to placebo, causes a reduction from baseline in the plasma levels of glucose, hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and Advanced Glycation Endproducts (AGEs) in patients with inadequately controlled type 2 diabetes mellitus. Secondary objectives include determining whether 12 weeks of treatment with Lysulin increases beta-cell function as measured by plasma C-peptide levels.
Fluciclovine F18 (Axumin) has been demonstrated to provide good delineation of recurrence of prostate cancer after definitive therapies. Fluciclovine in conjunction with the high-resolution digital Vereos (Phillips) PET-CT scanner may detect low volume recurrence in the prostatectomy bed or metastatic site (s). 20-40 % of men will suffer a biochemical recurrence of their prostate cancer after radical prostatectomy, depending on their final pathological staging, defined as a rising PSA > 0.2 ng/ml. The ability to more accurately diagnose local recurrence (i.e. pelvis) or oligometastasis may lead to the opportunity of precise therapy of these sites with more durable cancer responses, less morbidity and potential cure in selective men after Radical Prostatectomy. The ability to diagnose widespread metastatic Prostate Cancer after Radical Prostatectomy, or disease that is inaccessible to local selective therapies would spare these men the cost and morbidity of inappropriate therapy. The diagnosis of true stage D0 Prostate Cancer (No objective evidence of metastases) in men after Radical Prostatectomy would yield improved overall and disease specific survival if Androgen Deprivation Therapy was initiated at its earliest stage. This would also obviate the need for inappropriate local therapies (i.e. pelvic radiotherapy). The aim is to compare the detection rate of standard of care (CT Pelvis/Abdomen, MR Pelvis, Bone Scan) with Fluciclovine PET/CT performed on the Vereos Philips Scanner. The study aims to compare the performance of Digital (high resolution) PET to CT/MRI/Bone scan rather than analog (lower resolution) PET. Prior studies have tested analog PET compared to other modalities. One could make an inference that if our study's Digital PET performs better than the performance of Analog PET in those studies, then Digital PET should have a better detection rate than Analog PET. However, investigators are not making a direct comparison between digital and Analog in our comparison.
The UBC was a USAID-funded longitudinal prospective cohort study of pregnant women (n= 5030) aged 15-49 years from rural North and South-Western regions of Uganda, conducted between 2014 and 2016. The aim of the UBC study was to observationally follow pregnant women and their newborns until 2 years of age and compare changes over time in communities that were part of an ongoing USAID project called the Community Connector (CC) compared to those communities that were not included in the Community Connector project.
Family Nurture Intervention (FNI) has been shown to facilitate emotional connection and long-term child developmental progress in the NICU population. It has been theorized that FNI also promotes autonomic co-regulation and physiological synchrony between the mother-child dyad. The goal of the pilot study is to assess how a short one-time FNI session between at-risk mother and child dyads in the Well Baby Nursery (WBN) influences physiological synchrony, emotional connection, and developmental changes both short and long-term.
Prospective, open-label clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of andexanet alfa patients who require urgent surgery that have been anticoagulated with the FXa (activated factor X) inhibitors.
The aim of this trial is to investigate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of CVL-936 following single ascending oral doses in healthy subjects.
This will be a case-series multicenter study enrolling 800 pregnant people. Serum will be collected from people seeking abortion and assayed at a qualified laboratory.
Cannabis use is associated with younger age at onset of bipolar disorder, poor outcome, and more frequent manic episodes, but the effects of cannabis on cognition are less clear. Contrary to reports among non-psychiatric patients, cannabis may improve cognition among people with bipolar disorder. Nevertheless, no study to date has systematically tested the acute effects of cannabis on cognition in bipolar disorder. Therefore, the investigators propose to determine the effects of oral cannabinoid administration on cognitive domains relevant to bipolar disorder, e.g., arousal, decision making, cognitive control, inhibition, and temporal perception (sense of timing). In addition, the investigators will evaluate different doses of the two major components of cannabis, cannabidiol and ∆9-tetrahydrocannabinol, and compare them to placebo on these neurocognitive measures. The investigators will also test the effects of acute exposure to cannabinoids on cerebrospinal levels of anandamide and homovanillic acid - markers of endocannabinoid and dopamine activity in the brain, respectively. These studies will provide information that effectively bridges the fields of addiction and general psychiatry, informing treatment development for co-morbid substance abuse and psychiatric disorders.
