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 trial studies how well the addition of targeted radiation therapy to surgery and the usual chemotherapy treatment works for the treatment of stage I-IIIA malignant pleural mesothelioma. Targeted radiation therapy such as intensity-modulated radiation therapy or pencil beam scanning uses high energy rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as pemetrexed, cisplatin, and carboplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving targeted radiation therapy in addition to surgery and chemotherapy may work better than surgery and chemotherapy alone for the treatment of malignant pleural mesothelioma.
The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate safety and effectiveness of the Penumbra System in a population with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) secondary to intracranial large vessel occlusion (LVO).
Researchers in this study want to compare the effects of drug darolutamide and drug enzalutamide on physical function, including balance and daily activity, in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). Both darolutamide and enzalutamide are approved AR inhibitors used for the treatment of patients with CRPC. AR inhibitor is a substance that keeps androgens (male sex hormones) from binding to proteins called androgen receptors, which are found in normal prostate cells, some prostate cancer cells, and in some other cells. Preventing this binding blocks the effects of these hormones in the body and therefore keeps prostate cancer cells from growing. Patients participating this study will receive either darolutamide or enzalutamide tablets. To evaluate the physical function, patients will be asked to make some movements like rising from a chair, walking three meters, etc. Additionally, researchers also want to find out the survival of patients and if patients have fatigue (feeling tired), cognitive (learning and thinking) problems, or other medical problems during the trial. Brand name of darolutamide is Nubeqa; brand name of enzalutamide is Xtandi.
This prospective, randomized, double-blind study will compare the effect of oral premedication of ibuprofen and methylprednisolone on the anesthetic efficacy of an Inferior Alveolar Nerve Block (IANB) in adult patients with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis.
This phase I trial studies the best dose of copanlisib when given together with combination chemotherapy (R-GCD) in treating patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory) or grade 3b follicular lymphoma that has come back (relapsed) after 1 prior line of therapy. Copanlisib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Rituximab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine, carboplatin, and dexamethasone, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving copanlisib together with R-GCD as second line therapy may improve the complete response rate for patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma or follicular lymphoma.
Randomized Controlled Trial to evaluate the eHealth program, HEART (Health Education and Relationship Training).
The investigators long-term goal is to demonstrate the effectiveness of acupuncture for the treatment of adults with chronic pain due to sickle cell disease (SCD), a debilitating pain syndrome characterized by acute and chronic pain. The objective of this study is to explore the feasibility and acceptability of acupuncture with adult patients with SCD. All participants will receive acupuncture treatments twice per week for 5 weeks. Subjects will complete measures at baseline and post-treatment, and a measure of study acceptability at post-treatment. The investigators will describe the procedures and potential challenges to implementing the acupuncture protocol, and expect to identify and rectify any procedural problems that subjects report regarding the 10-session study protocol.
Medication non-adherence is a major risk factor for graft dysfunction and graft loss among pediatric and adult transplant recipients. Rates of non-adherence in these populations are estimated between 30 and 70%, with the highest prevalence in adolescent and young adult (AYA) transplant recipients. Treatment-related factors known to impact rates of adherence include the number of medication doses per day and the number of tablets or capsules a patient takes per day, or "pill burden". One approach to minimizing dosing frequency and pill-burden includes transitioning patients to once-daily formulations. The current literature investigating utilization of once-daily immunosuppressive regimens in the AYA kidney transplant population is limited.
This study is an open-label, Phase 1 study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, and pharmacodynamic profiles of AGEN1223 as a single-agent and in combination with balstilimab, as well as to assess the maximum tolerated dose and determine the RP2D of AGEN1223 as a single-agent and in combination with balstilimab in subjects with advanced solid tumors.
This trial studies how well bendamustine and rituximab in combination with copanlisib work in treating patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as bendamustine and rituximab, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Copanlisib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving bendamustine and rituximab with copanlisib may work better than bendamustine and rituximab alone in treating chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma.
