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 evaluates the use of RNS60 in the treatment of asthma examining regional improvements in inflammation using PET imaging. All subjects will be treated with both RNS60 and placebo in a crossover design.
This is a prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled study about Cyclosporine A (CSP) and traumatic brain injury (TBI). Cyclosporine A is a drug already marketed and available for other diseases, but is not approved by the Food and Drug Administration for treatment of traumatic brain injury. The effect of Cyclosporine A on chemicals produced following brain injury is being determined using doses no larger than those used for patients having organ transplant. It is also being given for a much shorter time period (3 days). It is not know if side effects seen in patients taking cyclosporine A will occur when it is given for only 3 days. It is not known if patients with brain injury that are treated with cyclosporine A will have side effects like those seen in organ transplant patients.
The primary purpose of this study is to look at effects, good or bad, of combining two investigational anti-cancer drugs called MPDL3280A and CDX-1401. CDX-1401 is given in combination with a third agent, poly-ICLC, which is another investigational drug that is believed to work together with CDX-1401. All investigational drugs, MPDL3280A and CDX-1401 in conjunction with poly-ICLC, have been evaluated separately in prior studies; however, this is the first study assessing the combination therapy.
This is a study of people with type 2 diabetes and high cholesterol between age 18 and 65. This study is trying to figure out if a partial bypass of the small intestine can reverse type 2 diabetes for people who require cholesterol lowering and who cannot tolerate the statin drugs.
This study targets patients with cisplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy and will allow us to: a) study peripheral neuropathy in diverse human sensory neurons in ways that were not possible previously; b) gain insight on druggable targets to treat or prevent this devastating side effect of chemotherapy; c) provide a human cellular model that can be used for screening of drugs to determine if they are neurotoxic. The combination of patient information and in vitro measurements provides a highly relevant and clinically useful model for studies aimed to impact treatment selection for the individual cancer patient.
This is multi-center prospective, longitudinal case series with comparison to historical controls.
This laboratory study will examine if varenicline can reduce alcohol-induced smoking lapse in heavy drinking smokers.
The purpose of this research study is to determine whether combining electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) with nicotine patch treatment will augment abstinence rates compared to either treatment alone.
This is an open-label, non-randomized study to evaluate the safety of two planned infusions of BPX-501 T cells after partially mismatched, related (haploidentical) HSCT in adults with hematologic malignancies.
Blood transfusion is nearly always needed during open heart surgery in children less than 15 kg (35 pounds). The purpose of the red blood cells in the blood is to deliver oxygen to the organs and tissues of the body. Stored blood undergoes some changes that may make it less effective in achieving this goal. The purpose of this study is to see if restoring important energy molecules (ATP and 2,3,DPG) in stored red blood cells before they are transfused, with a rejuvenating solution (Rejuvesol), offers any advantages to children over standard blood transfusion. This is a Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved process that is described by the American Association of Blood Banks for prolonging blood storage but not used for everyday transfusions. The investigators want to use this process to improve blood transfused to children undergoing heart surgery. Although Rejuvesol has been previously approved by the FDA, it is not routinely used to prepare standard blood transfusions to children undergoing surgery. Use of Rejuvesol in this study is considered investigational. This is a pilot study and data will be collected for future protocol development.
