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 study will pilot the use of 3D printed models of the hip, for use in pre-operative planning and patient communication to improve clinical outcomes and patient engagement. This method will be implemented in the setting of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), with the goal of identifying and measuring specific anatomical pathologies and impingement (range of motion) risks, to communicate a pre-operative plan to both the surgical team, and the patient.
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of twice-daily (BID) oral CR845 1.0 mg in patients with PBC with moderate-to-severe pruritus. The study includes a 16-week Treatment Period.
The purpose of this study is to determine if an eye tracking impairment sensor can detect cannabis-induced impairment after using cannabis.The overall objective is to correlate measures collected from the eye tracking sensor with measures related to cannabis impairment (e.g., plasma THC levels, self-reported cannabis subjective effects, cognitive effects).
This study will assess the immune responses to the recombinant, AS01-adjuvanted varicella zoster virus subunit (HZ/su) vaccine or SHINGRIX in immunosuppressed patients, particularly those who have received a renal transplant, and aim to better understand if the vaccine and perhaps other adjuvanted vaccines are safe in these patients. 30 participants will be divided into 2 groups, one group will receive the 1st out of 2 doses of the vaccine 3-6 months after transplant per standard of care and the second group will receive the 1st out of 2 doses of the vaccine 12-36 months after the transplant per standard of care.The duration of the study is 180 days.
PRECISE-D is a single site, randomized, open label 8-week clinical trial that will enroll 70 participants to evaluate if the level of inflammation in our body can predict how we will respond to antidepressants. C-reactive protein (CRP) is a substance in the body that is associated with inflammation. Previous research has suggested that people with high CRP (i.e., high inflammation levels) tend to have greater improvement of depressive symptoms with an antidepressant called bupropion, while individuals with low CRP (i.e., low inflammation levels) appear to have more benefit from selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors antidepressants (SSRI), such as escitalopram. However, it is not completely clear if CRP can predict your response to these two antidepressants. Participants will undergo a screening visit that includes a physical exam, overall health evaluation, assessment of mental health history, and a toxicology and pregnancy test. Once screening is complete, participants will be randomized to one of two groups that will determine whether their CRP levels will be used to select which antidepressant they will receive. Participants will then complete 4 follow up visits at weeks 2, 4, 6, and 8. A follow-up phone call from the study team will occur at week 12.
To obtain evidence of antitumor effect of CX-072 in combination with anticancer therapy in adult patients with solid tumor based upon overall response rate by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST)
In this study, the investigators will compare CLOROTEKAL® (1% spinal chloroprocaine) to low-dose isobaric bupivacaine using the epidural volume extension (EVE) technique in patients undergoing post-partum tubal ligation (PPBTL). This will be a randomized, double-blinded study. Patients scheduled for PPBTL at the Women and Infants Center (WIC) will be eligible for enrollment in this study. Outcomes measured will include: ability to achieve an adequate level required for surgery (T6), rate of epidural activation, and duration of the block. The investigators hope to determine the usefulness of each drug using the EVE technique in the setting of PPBTL.
This research is being done to test new MRI methods called Magnetic Resonance Fingerprinting and Q-space Trajectory Imaging in gynecological abnormalities. The purpose of this research study is to evaluate if these new MRI methods can give additional information in characterizing gynecological tumors compared with conventional MRI.
The mortality burden of trauma in the United States is substantial, and is currently the leading cause of death in warfare and in civilians below age 45. Infection and sepsis are leading causes of morbidity and death in early survivors. Pneumonia (PNA) occurs in 17-36% of ventilated trauma patients; far more than non-trauma patients. The long held dogmatic notion of a mechanical predisposition to development of pneumonia in trauma has lacked robust support. However, there is evidence of the innate immune response to injury plays a major role in increasing susceptibility to infection. This application is for support of a Focused Program Award addressing the role that "danger signaling" due to "danger associated molecular patterns" (or DAMPs) derived from somatic tissue injuries play in altering innate immune signaling in the lung in ways that predisposes to PNA. This innate immune response plays a pivotal role in the development and progression of lung inflammation. The organization of the Focused Program Award is into six Projects with collaborators from the Departments of Surgery, Medicine and Anesthesiology at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center; the Department of Surgery at Brigham and Women's Hospital and the Departments of Biology and Biological Engineering at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The human subjects interaction portion of this project is covered in the Human Subjects & Samples Project of the Award, although the information and tissues obtained from this Project will be shared with the other Projects, and the activities planned for those Projects are outlined in this application.
The purpose of this study is to assess the long-term safety, tolerability and the long-term efficacy of rotigotine treatment in adolescents with idiopathic Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS).
