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 is a two center, open label, non-randomized Phase II study of lenvatinib in adult subjects with recurrent or refractory advanced cancers with aberration(s) in FGF/FGFR signaling. Treatment will consist of daily oral administration of Lenvatinib in 28-day cycles.
The purpose of this study is to determine if fluorescence angiography can detect occult shock (hypoperfusion).
This is a single center, phase I dose escalation study designed to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of deimmunized CD133KDEL (dCD133KDEL), a ligand-directed, deimmunized pseudomonas toxin against CD133, in patients with advanced, previously treated, refractory solid tumors.
The purpose of this study is to determine how the position of the right ventricular (RV) coil of an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (apex versus septum) affects the defibrillation threshold; specifically, can defibrillator threshold be improved by implantation site selection.
To obtain definitive evidence for the effectiveness of a short preoperative inspiratory muscle training (IMT) protocol on the morbidity and recovery from an esophageal surgical resection.
The proposed study will consist of a 9 week double-blind cross-over study trial of milk thistle in 15 people (ages 18-65). The study will be divided into an initial 4 week phase, a one week wash out phase, and a second 4 week phase, with one of the 4 week phases consisting of active treatment with milk thistle, and the other 4 week phase consisting of inactive placebo treatment. Participants will be randomized to receive either milk thistle or placebo during the first 4 week phase on a 1:1 basis. This blinding will be maintained by the IDS pharmacy at the University of Chicago.
Primary aim of this study is to assess the feasibility of conducting clinical research for delirium (confusion due to medical problems) at Clements University Hospital in Dallas, Texas. A secondary aim is to assess whether an FDA-approved sleeping aid called Ramelteon or an over-the-counter supplement called Citicoline are safe and beneficial in delirium.
This research project is focusing on changes in mental fatigue due to transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) in healthy individuals. The study aim is to see if mental fatigue can be rescued by administering a safe dose of tDCS. tDCS has been shown to decrease fatigue in healthy individuals experiencing extended wakefulness, and the investigators aim to investigate if similar results can be found in a fatigue inducing task. This is a single-blind randomized control trial that will compare mental fatigue between tDCS treatment and sham treatment groups through both subjective and objective measures. Objective fatigue will be measured by reaction time with the Stroop test and subjective fatigue will be measured by the multidimensional fatigue inventory questionnaire.
Bedside ultrasonography for detection of pneumothorax after transbronchial lung biopsies in lung transplant patients
The purpose of this study is to determine if elevations in oxidative stress, as measured by oxidation-reduction potential (ORP), can distinguish between semen samples from men with abnormal semen parameters from those with normal semen parameters. Static ORP (sORP) results, measured by the MiOXSYS System- a novel technology, will be compared to the current World Health Organization (WHO) semen analysis parameters (5th Edition WHO Laboratory Manual for the Examination and Processing of Human Semen [2010]).
