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 pilot project is a randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled trial investigating whether in-home air pollution reductions using portable air cleaners (PACs) can decrease circulating concentrations of biomarkers of inflammation. Using both a targeted approach to study the established biomarker TNFa and an exploratory approach with a commercially available proteomic panel, the researchers will measure concentrations of biomarkers before and after four weeks of home PAC use in a cohort of 74 adults with hypertension recruited from NYU outpatient clinical settings. Participants will also track home blood pressure measurements for additional exploratory analysis of potential mediation of PAC-associated decreases in blood pressure by biomarker concentration changes.
The overarching goal of this study is to a) assess the feasibility and preliminary validity of home-based delivery of TeleNP to patients with suspected Alzheimer's Disease (AD), referred for cognitive assessments in a Neurology Clinic; and b) elucidate whether TeleNP is equivalent to face-to-face evaluation (FF) for diagnostic adjudication of atypical versus typical AD.
The Department of Counseling, Educational Psychology, and Special Education and the Department of Psychiatry at Michigan State University have coordinated efforts to provide a diagnostic and treatment investigation for children, ages seven to eighteen, with Selective Mutism. The purpose of this study is to examine the utility of fluoxetine for the treatment of this debilitating disorder. Fluoxetine is expected to improve social anxiety and selective mutism symptomology.
The purpose of this study is to characterize the distribution of lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) levels among participants with a history of ASCVD as defined by their medical history and is 2-fold: - Evaluate the distribution of Lp(a) value in the overall participants with documented history of ASCVD - Evaluate the distribution of Lp(a) value in participants with documented history of ASCVD by demographics and regions
It is known that tumors have an affinity for taking up amino acids from circulation or nearby tissues to use as a fuel source, to enhance their growth. Work in rodents has shown that when the levels of amino acids are reduced in diet, tumor growth is slowed and tumors are more susceptible to anti-cancer therapies. There are limited evidence-based dietary recommendations for cancer patients, which represents an urgent and unmet need. It is likely that reducing dietary protein will be beneficial, however this has not been tested. In advance of carrying out a study in cancer patients a study in healthy volunteers needs to be conducted to determine whether altering the amount of dietary protein, impacts the levels of amino acids (or other metabolites) in blood or the intestine. By demonstrating that altering dietary protein can alter the metabolome of healthy individuals, it will provide the information needed to reduce protein intake in cancer patients in future studies.
The proposed pilot randomized controlled trial will test the FACT (Families Addressing Cancer Together) intervention designed to improve parents' confidence and ability to talk about their cancer with their minor children. We will enroll 40 patients with cancer who have a minor child to participate in this single site, 6-week study. The primary hypothesis being tested is that an intervention that assists parents with their communication needs with their children can be feasible and acceptable when compared with a wait-list control condition.
The main purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and tolerability of the study drug LY3457263 when administered alone or in combination with glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist (RA) in participants with type 2 diabetes. Blood tests will be performed to investigate how the body processes the study drug and how the study drug affects the body. The study will last up to approximately 16 weeks excluding the screening period for each participant and include up to 17 visits.
This study will be a Phase 1, single-center, open-label, randomized cross-over study to evaluate the PK of a new AP003 device which delivers two sprays of 4 mg naloxone hydrochloride intranasally.
Study SYNB8802-CP-002 is designed to assess safety, tolerability, and oxalate lowering, in subjects with a history of gastric bypass surgery or short-bowel syndrome. In addition, this study will explore other PD effects relative to baseline as well as predictors of efficacy and tolerability.
Children with neurofibromatosis are more likely to have difficulties related to their psychological and neurocognitive functioning (e.g., more likely to have depression, have social difficulties, be diagnosed with ADHD). The purpose of this randomized control study is to determine how effective and useful this study's single session intervention can be in improving psychological and neurocognitive functioning. Enrolled families will consist of one parent/guardian and child. Parents and patients will complete questionnaires and objective tests at baseline, 3 months, and 6 months. Families randomized to the intervention arm will be provided with one single session intervention at Month 1 to learn about their child's testing results and receive psychoeducation and recommendations related to psychological and neurocognitive functioning.
