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 research study is studying the effect of different drugs as possible treatments for adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC), a type of head and neck cancer. The name of the study intervention involved in this study is: -implantable microdevice
Depression is a leading cause of disability worldwide and is more commonly seen in individual's post-spinal cord injury (SCI) than in the general population. Depression post-SCI impacts an individuals' quality of life and recovery. It has been reported that among Veterans with an SCI, those without depression live longer than those with depression. Thus, depression must be treated appropriately. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is an FDA-approved treatment for depression, but dosing is based on a motor response or movement in the thumb. Over half of individuals with SCI have some degree of arm or hand impairment, so these individuals might not be eligible for rTMS, or they may receive the wrong dose. This study proposes clinical trial in individuals with depression post-SCI to assess the anti-depressant effect of a novel technique to dose rTMS that does not require a motor response in the thumb. By gaining a better understanding of the application of rTMS for depression post-SCI, the investigators aim to advance the rehabilitative care of Veterans.
Background: Mosaicism is a condition in which cells within the same person have a different genetic makeup. Sometimes, a type of mosaicism called 45,X may not be discovered in a woman until she undergoes routine tests during pregnancy. Little is known about how 45,X mosaicism may affect a person s long-term health. Objective: This natural history study will look for health risks in people with 45,X mosaicism. Eligibility: People aged 18 to 99 years who during pregnancy were found to have 45,X mosaicism. Healthy volunteers are also needed. Design: Participants will stay in the clinic for 2 days. They will have many tests: A physical exam, including measurements of the body. A gynecological exam, including genital measurements. Photos may be taken, with consent. Blood tests, with blood drawn over an 8-week period. An oral glucose test for diabetes may also be done. Tests of heart function. Participants will have small stickers attached to wires place on their chest, arms, and legs. Hearing tests. Ultrasound exams, which use echoing sound waves to create images of organs such as the heart and kidneys. Imaging scans including x-rays, MRI, and DXA. The DXA uses x-rays to measure bone density and body fat. Other types of scans will capture images of the liver. Participants will complete 4 surveys with questions about their sexual function, anxiety, depression, and health. Participants may remain in the study for 20 years. For 5 years, they will have a yearly follow-up by phone or email. They may have follow-up visits at the clinic every 5 years.
The proposed study will be a randomized, prospective, non-blinded study of 120 participants with type 1 or type 2 diabetes that are new-to-insulin on hospital discharge. On hospital discharge, participants will be assigned to either the intervention of wearing a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) for 2 weeks or blood glucose monitoring (BGM) for 2 weeks. They will have a 2-week follow up visit, during which insulin doses will be adjusted as needed, and a 3-month follow-up visit, at which point HbA1c will be measured.
This will be a prospective study over a 14-month duration with clinical evaluations throughout. Limitless Solutions will provide prosthetics and training system for study subjects that qualify for enrollment.
This study is 6 weeks long and involves subjects taking aripiprazole or placebo. If they are randomly assigned to the aripiprazole arm and are eligible to participate in the study, they will begin by taking 5mg once daily of aripiprazole for two weeks, then 10mg once daily for the remaining three weeks. Efficacy and safety measures will be performed at each visit. Participants will be randomized to receive either aripiprazole or placebo on a 1:1 basis. This blinding will be maintained by the IDS pharmacy at the University of Chicago.
The purpose of our study is to evaluate Vibrotactile Coordinated Reset stimulation (vCR) and its effects on early stage Parkinson's symptoms. VCR will be administered with a device called the Stanford Glove. vCR is expected to provide patients with a non-invasive alternative to the most widely used treatments such as levodopa and or deep brain stimulation. Patients will be followed for two years.
This first-in-human trial will assess the safety, feasibility, and efficacy of an immunotherapy with a novel CD30 antibody conjugated to a CD3 antibody that is preloaded onto a patient's own T-cells, generating a CD30 bispecific antibody-armed, anti-CD3-activated, autologous T-cells (CD30 biAb-AATC).
Protein ingestion timing is an important component for muscle accretion. We hypothesized that protein ingestion timing could affect muscular adaptations and performance in resistance-trained men.
Nurses Taking on Readiness Measures (N-TORM) is an innovative nurse-driven household emergency preparedness intervention modeled after an existing community intervention provided by emergency management personnel. The proposed pilot studies will test the Korean translation of the Household Emergency Preparedness Instrument (K-HEPI) and describe the implementation and effectiveness of N-TORM in a community setting. The aims of this instrument translation study and cluster randomized controlled trial are to (a) field and pilot test the K-HEPI in order to perform psychometric testing on the instrument and generate reliability and validity data, (b) increase the accessibility of N-TORM to vulnerable populations, (c) evaluate the effectiveness of N-TORM to increase household emergency preparedness knowledge and behavior, (d) implement N-TORM in a community located in an area at increased risk for disasters, measuring consistency of delivery, time, and cost of N-TORM, and (e) describe the factors most necessary to maintain and expand N-TORM.
