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 prospective observational, non-therapeutic study for patients with T3, T4, or node positive rectal cancer eligible to undergo total neoadjuvant therapy. This research study involves the collection of data and biospecimens (blood and tissue) to see if the presence of circulating tumor DNA (genetic material) ctDNA will help monitor rectal cancer more closely and potentially detect a recurrence before routine scans, performed per standard of care C2i Genomics, a biotechnology company, and the Spier Foundation are supporting this research study by providing funding for the study.
The purpose of this study is to develop and test if upper limb task practice and muscle activity training improve upper limb function in stroke survivors. Participants will be asked to come to the laboratory 3 times a week for 6 weeks to receive upper limb task practice and/or muscle activity training. Participants will also come to the laboratory for additional 3 visits for assessments of upper extremity function. The total duration of the study will be 2.5 months.
Studies indicate that up to 75% of women will experience pain sometime during their pregnancy. Recent recommendations by the FDA recommended that non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAIDS) medications be avoided during pregnancy. This recommendation limits the pain medications available for use during pregnancy. Antidotal evidence suggests that the FDA cleared Soovu pulsed heat device may produce pain relief during pregnancy. This study tests the Soovu device's ability to provide pain relief during pregnancy and up to one month post-partum and may eventually offer a safe nondrug option to treat pregnancy related pain. This is an observational pilot study The primary objective and hypothesis of this study is that the use of the Soovu pain management device will produce a significant reduction of pain when comparing pre versus post treatment pain.
The purpose of this phase 2 randomized control trial will be to evaluate the effect of glucose-insulin-potassium (GIK) therapy in the setting of lower extremity trauma to reduce short- and long-term muscle damage, acute rhabdomyolysis, and acute kidney injury. The study will consist of 40 patients with femur or tibial shaft fractures randomized to the GIK arm (using a well-described systemic GIK protocol; n = 20) or the control arm (using isotonic saline; n = 20). The use of systemic GIK is expected to decrease the overall amount of lower extremity muscle cell death and result in improved muscle function in the postoperative period. Additionally, the investigators hypothesize that GIK will lead to less severe rhabdomyolysis and a concomitant decrease in the incidence of AKI that results from the byproducts of muscle cell death.
The proposed study is a two-arm randomized clinical trial designed to assess the effects of the StrokeWear system on clinical outcomes over a period of 6-months in chronic stroke survivors. The Intervention group will use StrokeWear system in combination to a motor and behavioral home intervention whereas the Control group will follow usual care which consists of a home-exercise plan (HEP).
The study will involve a 10-week Micro-Randomized Trial (MRT) to inform the delivery of prompts (via mobile app push notifications) designed to facilitate adherence to an ideal tooth brushing protocol (2x2x4; 2 sessions daily, 2 minutes per session, all 4 quadrants).
The current proposal is designed as a first-in-human Phase 1 open-label, dose-escalation study to assess the safety, pharmacokinetics, and the maximum tolerated dose of DHM among healthy volunteers using a purified form of DHM from a local cGMP compliant source (Master Herbs, Inc).
The goal of this clinical study is to test the effectiveness of a supplemental fMRI neurofeedback and/or TMS intervention in individuals seeking treatment for Alcohol Use Disorder. After an initial visit, participants will come in once a week for four (4) weeks for an intervention session, which may or may not include TMS and MRI. Participants will be contacted for monthly follow-ups (remotely) for up to 12 months and will be asked to come in for two MRI follow-ups at 6 and 12 months.
The purpose of this study is to determine if the study drug, patritumab deruxtecan (HER3-DXd), can be measured in brain tumor tissue after recieving one dose of patritumab deruxtecan before surgery.
The objective of this preliminary study is to assess the utility of oral dexmedetomidine as the sole sedative agent in pediatric population undergoing MRI
