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 Phase 1, multicenter, open-label, single-dose study to evaluate the safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of NBI-77860 in subjects with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). The study will be conducted in approximately 15 adolescent females (12-18 years of age) with a documented medical diagnosis of classic 21-hydroxylase deficiency CAH. The study will include three independent dose cohorts of NBI-77860 (approximately 5 subjects per dose cohort). Ascending doses will be evaluated as part of a sequential-cohort design.
This phase II trial studies the safety of NovoTTF-100A in combination with bevacizumab and carmustine and to see how well they work in treating patients with glioblastoma multiforme that has returned for the first time. NovoTTF-100A, a type of electric field therapy, delivers low intensity, alternating "wave-like" electric fields that may interfere with multiplication of the glioblastoma multiforme cells. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carmustine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving NovoTTF-100A together with bevacizumab and carmustine may be an effective treatment for glioblastoma multiforme.
The primary purpose of this study is to determine the degree of loss of epidermal nerve fibers near a foot wound in patients with diabetic foot ulcers. The secondary purpose will be to determine whether the degree of epidermal nerve fiber loss, the clinical examination, nerve conduction studies or the molecular profile correlates with appearance of lower extremity ulcers in patients with diabetes.
Stroke is the leading cause of acquired long-term disability in adults in developed countries. Despite aggressive rehabilitation, lasting upper extremity impairment remains in the majority of stroke survivors. It is hypothesized that enhancing neuroplasticity through the combination of drug therapy and physical therapy could enhance outcomes for stroke survivors. The combination of levodopa and intensive physical therapy shows promise in enhancing the functional motor recovery of stroke patients during the sub-acute and chronic period without reported significant side effects. Robotic-aided training is a promising tool that has the potential to deliver high-intensity, task-oriented, reproducible therapy that can decrease the burden on a therapist. Since the evidence behind dopaminergic potentiation of neuroplasticity and stroke recovery is promising, it is the investigators aim to combine dopaminergic drug therapy with highly intensive robotic-assisted therapy to provide superior upper extremity functional recovery over traditional stroke rehabilitation.
This partially randomized phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of c-Met inhibitor AMG 337 when given together with oxaliplatin, leucovorin calcium, and fluorouracil and to see how well they work in treating patients with stomach or esophageal cancer that has spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment. C-Met inhibitor AMG 337 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as, oxaliplatin, leucovorin calcium, and fluorouracil, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving c-Met inhibitor AMG 337 with oxaliplatin, leucovorin calcium, and fluorouracil may kill more tumor cells.
The overall objective of the study is to compare and assess the clinical outcomes of the standard of care hybrid ablation using epicardial ablation in conjunction with endocardial PVI alone versus epicardial ablation in conjunction with endocardial ablation using PVI with additional RF ablation in a randomized, prospective population of patients with persistent AF of at least 6 months duration. All devices that are used are being utilized under the approved labeling of the devices.
The objective of the study is to demonstrate non-inferiority of stem revision rate in subjects implanted with the REDAPT™ System with a revision rate of less than 9.8% at the 5 year mark assuming an observed rate of 6.5% at 5 years. Additional data will be collected as outcomes of safety and effectiveness data up to 10 years post REDAPT revision surgery.
This is a phase II, single arm, unblinded study of ceritinib in patients with rel/ref hematologic malignancies. Up to 24 evaluable subjects will be enrolled with an interim analysis for efficacy after the first 9 subjects are enrolled. Any subject who takes at least one dose of study drug will be evaluable for safety. Only subjects who complete at least 1 cycle of study drug and have clear progression on physical exam or have had at least one restaging study will be considered evaluable for response. Each subject will receive the same dose of 750mg po daily at the study entry. Subjects with stable disease or better will be allowed to continue study drug until disease progression or until intolerable adverse events or patient or physician decision. Intrapatient dose reductions will be allowed for adverse events. This is a multicenter study with Duke as the lead site. Blood and tissue samples, will be collected and used for exploratory analysis.
This pilot phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-resistant gene modified stem cells in treating HIV-positive patients who are undergoing first-line treatment for Hodgkin or Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma. Stem cells are collected from the patient and HIV-resistance genes are placed into the stem cells. The stem cells are then re-infused into the patient. These genetically modified stem cells may help the body make cells that are resistant to HIV infection.
The purpose of this study is to determine how effect lacosamide is in reducing the amount of pain medication needed following a total hip arthroplasty. The study team hypothesizes that a single dose of lacosamide will reduce the amount of pain medication required after surgery. The study team plans to evaluate the amount of pain medication needed and quality of pain control during a subject's hospital stay and at their three month follow-up visit following their surgery.
