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.
Approximately 15 million women of reproductive age women in the United States have overweight or obesity and use the combined estrogen and progestin oral contraceptive pill (COC). Although many women report weight gain as a side effect of COCs, a conclusive link between COC use and weight gain has not been established. This investigation will address a major gap in the literature by prospectively evaluating the influence of initiating a COC versus non-hormonal contraceptives (NHCs) on weight, body composition, eating behaviors, and appetite in pre-menopausal women with overweight or obesity. Aim 1 will assess the feasibility of recruiting and retaining a racially/ethnically diverse group of women with overweight and obesity while Aim 2 will explore changes in body weight, body composition, and cardiometabolic risks in these women; Aim 3 will explore changes in dietary and macronutrient energy intake, eating behaviors, and appetite in this subset of women. This research will help the investigators understand the extent to which COCs are associated with weight gain and help guide medical providers in counseling women with overweight and obesity on appropriate contraceptive methods.
The is a phase 2 multi-cohort, non-randomized, open-label, multi-center study assessing the clinical benefit of SAR444245 combined with other anticancer therapies for the treatment of participants aged 18 years and older with HNSCC. This study is structured as a master protocol for the investigation of SAR444245 with other anticancer therapies. Substudy 1-Cohort A1 aims to establish proof-of-concept that SAR444245 combined with the anti-PD1 antibody pembrolizumab, will result in a significant increase in the observed number of objective responses in trial participants with HNSCC who are treatment-naïve for recurrent and/or metastatic (R/M) disease. Substudy 4-Cohort B1 aims to establish proof-of-concept that SAR444245 combined with the anti-PD1 antibody pembrolizumab, will result in a significant increase in the observed number of objective responses in trial participants with HNSCC who have received treatment with PD1/PD-L1 and platinum-based regimen. Substudy 5-Cohort B2 aims to establish proof-of-concept that SAR444245 combined with cetuximab will result in a significant increase in the observed number of objective responses in trial participants with HNSCC previously treated with platinum-based regimen & cetuximab-naive after failure of no more than 2 regimens for recurrent and/or metastatic (R/M) disease.
The purpose of this study is to understand how a pre-operative nutritional intervention alters the gut microbiome and improves outcomes after major head and neck cancer surgery.
Main study: This is an open-label, phase 2 study that aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety/tolerability of ceralasertib, when administered as monotherapy and in combination with durvalumab in participants with unresectable or advanced melanoma and primary or secondary resistance to PD-(L)1 inhibition.
Hydrogen sulfide is a signaling molecule that is important for vascular health. Because vascular factors such as hypertension and high cholesterol are risk factors for Alzheimer's disease and related dementias, we hypothesize that hydrogen sulfide plays an important role in brain health as well. We will compare blood levels of hydrogen sulfide across groups of people with and without dementia. We will also look at the relationship between hydrogen sulfide, cognitive dysfunction and measures of brain microvascular disease examine the contribution of hydrogen sulfide to cognitive decline. Our goal is to identify a biomarker of vascular dysfunction in dementia.
This is a multicenter, open-label, phase I/II basket study, evaluating the safety, tolerability, RP2D, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and antitumor activity of EOS-448 (also known as GSK4428859A or belrestotug) combined with standard of care and/or with investigational therapies in participants with advanced solid tumors.
This study is a long-term follow-up study for patients who have been administered AAV2hAQP1 in the Phase 1 Open-Label, Dose Escalation Study to Determine the Optimal Dose, Safety, and Activity in Subjects with Radiation Induced Parotid Gland Hypofunction and Xerostomia
To observe and assess drug administration activities, time spent on drug administration activities, and patient-reported outcomes (PROs) including quality of life, treatment satisfaction, and patient perception of devices related to use of United Therapeutics Corporation (UTC)-developed next-generation infusion pumps to administer Remodulin in patients with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH).
Symphony IL-6 is a device that quantitates human IL-6 by fluorescence enzyme immunoassay (FEIA) from whole-blood specimens. Use of Symphony IL- 6 removes the need for plasma separation before testing. Symphony IL-6 comprises two components, the Symphony Fluorescence Immunoanalyzer and the Symphony IL-6 Cartridge. Whole blood is added to the cartridge and then up to six cartridges can be inserted into the immunoanalyzer. After 20 minutes a readout and printout are given with a quantitative IL-6 concentration. The used cartridges are fully enclosed and can be easily disposed of in general hospital bio-waste. Given the nature of this device and its portability, there is potential for future deployment as a point-of-care (POC) device. This study is to establish an interleukin-6 (IL-6) cutoff value using the Symphony IL-6 test for patients at high risk of severe sepsis caused by a COVID-19 infection.
The main aim of this study is to: - evaluate safety and efficacy (per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1 [RECIST 1.1] by investigator) of 2 dose levels of tarlatamab for Part 1 only - evaluate anti-tumor activity of tarlatamab as determined by objective response rate (ORR) per RECIST 1.1 by blinded independent central review (BICR) for Part 1 and 2 - evaluate safety of reduced mandatory monitoring period in Cycle 1 at selected dose of tarlatamab for Part 3
