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.
Among food products receiving attention for prebiotic functionality, spices represent a flavorful vehicle for cultivating a healthy gut microbiota. As the required doses of spice-derived polyphenols to elicit prebiotic and systemic metabolic effects are not well-characterized, additional research is warranted. Thus, the investigators propose to use a food-first synbiotic (prebiotic + probiotic) approach to examine alterations in the gut microbiota pre- and post-intervention/placebo and their relationship with systemic cardiometabolic effects mediated by short chain fatty acids (SCFA) and gut-derived metabolites.
The main purpose of the study is to look at the effect of the study drug compared to placebo on calorie intake, energy metabolism, and appetite. The study will last up to 6 months and may include up to 20 visits.
Spinal cord injury (SCI) can make it hard for the body to self-regulate some of its automatic functions like blood pressure, breathing, and heart rate. This can also make it hard for those living with SCI to exercise or complete their usual daily activities. The goal of this randomized trial is to test combinatory therapy of moderate arm-crank exercise paired with non-invasive transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation (tSCS) for cardiovascular recovery in adults aged 21-65 following chronic motor-complete spinal cord injury (SCI) at or above the thoracic sixth spinal segment (≥T6). The main questions the study aims to answer are: - Conduct tSCS mapping to determine the most effective location and stimulation intensity for BP control in individuals with motor-complete SCI ≥ T6. - Evaluate the effects 8 weeks of targeted tSCS paired with arm-crank exercise compared to sham stimulation with exercise on improving cardiovascular function in individuals with motor-complete SCI ≥T6. - Evaluate the dosage-response of 8 weeks vs. 16 weeks of targeted tSCS paired with arm-crank exercise on cardiovascular function in individuals with motor-complete SCI ≥T6. - Explore the mechanisms involved in cardiovascular recovery with long-term tSCS paired with arm-crank exercise. Participants will: - Receive either transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation or "sham" spinal cord stimulation while exercising on an arm-crank bicycle in the first 8 weeks. - Come in for approximately 60 visits over a 6-month period. This includes 2, 8-week periods where the investigators will ask participants to come in 3x per week for spinal cord stimulation and exercise. - During assessment visits the researchers will perform a variety of exams including a neurologic, cardiovascular, pulmonary, physical, and autonomic exam, and will ask questions about quality of life and functioning. Researchers will compare those who receive tSCS and do moderate arm-crank exercise to those who receive a sham stimulation and do moderate arm-crank exercise to see if tSCS is effective at improving cardiovascular and autonomic functioning in those with SCI.
This research is being conducted to determine a safe and effective dose of revumenib that can be given in combination with standard induction (initial therapy to induce a remission) + FLT3 targeted therapy (midostaurin) and a single cycle of post-remission therapy + FLT3 targeted therapy (midostaurin) to participants with newly diagnosed Nucleophosmin (NPM1) and FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) mutated Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML). The names of the study drugs involved in this study are: - Revumenib (SNDX-5613) (a type of menin inhibitor) - Midostaurin (a type of multi-kinase including FLT3 inhibitor) - Cytarabine (a type of antineoplastic agent) - Daunorubicin (a type of antineoplastic agent)
Background: Sickle cell disease (SCD) is an inherited disorder of the blood. SCD causes red blood cells (RBCs) to die early. This can lead to a shortage of healthy cells. SCD and other blood disorders can be managed with drugs or cured with a bone marrow transplant. Researchers want to know how long RBCs survive in people with SCD and other blood disorders before and after treatment compared to those who had a bone marrow transplant. Objective: To learn how long RBCs survive in the body in people with SCD and other blood disorders compared to those whose disease was cured with a bone marrow transplant. Eligibility: People aged 18 years or older with SCD or another inherited blood disorder. People whose SCD or blood disorder was cured with a bone marrow transplant are also needed. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam with blood and urine tests. Participants will have about 7 tablespoons of blood drawn. In the lab, this blood will be mixed with a vitamin called biotin. Biotin sticks to the outside of RBCs. This process is called "biotin labeling of RBCs." The next day, the participant s own biotin-labeled RBCs will be returned to their bloodstream. Participants will return regularly to have smaller blood samples (about 2 teaspoons) drawn. These samples will be tested to detect the percentage of cells that have biotin labels. These visits may be every 2 weeks, 4 weeks, or some other interval. Participants will continue this schedule for up to 20 weeks or until biotin can no longer be detected....
Rosacea is a common skin condition associated with easy blushing and red face; many patients with rosacea react to sunlight with increased redness. The purpose of this study is to determine if the use of a topical medication will help reduce sunlight induced redness and irritation in patients with rosacea.
This is an investigator initiated study is designed to evaluate the anti-tremor benefits of two marketed medications, methazolamide and acamprosate in subjects with a diagnosis of essential tremor (ET).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the relative bioavailability, effect of food on the pharmacokinetic parameters, and safety and tolerability, of a tablet formulation of VX-118 in healthy participants.
This project will evaluate the impact of L-Citrulline, tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4), and atorvastatin administration on physical capacity and vascular function in Veterans with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).
The goal of this clinical trial is to verify the continued safety and effectiveness for the Optilume BPH Catheter System.
