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 examine the effects a Glucagon Receptor Antagonist (GRA), has on Insulin Sensitivity, Cardiovascular risks (CVD), and Ketone body formation in participants with Type 1 diabetes. The participants will complete blood tests, tests to measure energy expenditure, CVD risks, and insulin resistance. These tests will be performed prior to start of treatment and again after 12-weeks of treatment with the GRA (called REMD-477).
The juvenile justice (JJ) system serves over a million cases every year and represents the primary referral source for treatment of substance use and antisocial behavior in youth. However, engagement of the JJ population in treatment is alarmingly low; further, rural communities have neither access to evidence-based practices (EBPs) nor the finances and treatment infrastructure to support their delivery. However, using an innovation called task-shifting, juvenile probation/parole officers in rural communities might be able to deliver a central change mechanism for EBPs (parent activation), with the ultimate goal of improving JJ youth outcomes.
This protocol is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial which aims to investigate the effect of romosozumab on BMD in women with anorexia nervosa. The investigators will also investigate the safety of romosozumab in women with anorexia nervosa. The investigators hypothesize that 12 months of romosozumab administration will result in an increase in bone mineral density, increase in markers of bone formation and decrease in markers of bone resorption, and improvement in bone microarchitecture in osteopenic women with anorexia nervosa compared with placebo. The extension study will offer subjects 12-month administration of open-label alendronate (an oral bisphosphonate) 70 mg once weekly after the initial 12 month administration of romosozumab or placebo. The investigators hypothesize that 12 months of romosozumab followed by 12 months of open-label alendronate will result in a greater increase in BMD compared to 12 months of placebo followed by 12 months of open-label alendronate. Within the group of women who receive sequential therapy with 12 months of romosozumab followed by 12 months of alendronate, the investigators hypothesize that BMD will be maintained between 12 and 24 months while on alendronate.
Cannabidiol (CBD) is another cannabis plant derivative for which, like THC, there has been extensive research. Unlike THC however, CBD is non-intoxicating and non-psychedelic. CBD has antipsychotic effects. Logically, if CBD opposes THC effects, it may be a potential antipsychotic treatment. The purpose of this pilot research is to show target engagement of the hippocampus with the study drug (CBD versus placebo) in patients who have been diagnosed with schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, or bipolar disorder with psychosis compared to healthy controls.
This study evaluates the safety of defibrotide with IVIG in children with high risk Kawasaki disease.
This study is done to find out whether the medicine, semaglutide, has a positive effect on early Alzheimer's disease. Participants will either get semaglutide or placebo (a "dummy" medicine which does not contain any study medicine) - which treatment participants get is decided by an equal chance. The study will last for up to 173 weeks (about 3 years and 4 months). Participants will have 17 clinic visits and 1 phone call with the study doctor. The study includes various tests and scans. At 10 of the clinic visits participants will have blood samples taken. Participants must have a study partner, who is willing to take part in the study. Women cannot take part if pregnant, breastfeeding or plan to become pregnant during the study period. A cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) sub-study will be performed as a part of the study. The sub-study will be performed on a selection of sites based on their experience with CSF sampling and willingness to participate in this sub-study. The endpoints related to this sub-study are exploratory only.

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study that will evaluate the efficacy and safety of intravenous (IV) prasinezumab versus placebo in participants with Early Parkinson's Disease (PD) who are on stable symptomatic PD medication.
This main long-term extension study is designed to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of faricimab 6 milligrams (mg) administered by intravitreal injection at a personalized treatment interval (PTI) to participants with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) who enrolled in and completed one of the Phase III studies: GR40306 (NCT03823287) or GR40844 (NCT03823300), also referred to as the parent studies. Eligible patients who consent to participate in this main study will be enrolled upon completion of the end-of-study visit in the parent study. Additionally, there is a substudy that is being conducted. The aim of this substudy is to evaluate the impact of intravitreal faricimab on the health of the corneal endothelial cells in the study eyes of patients with nAMD to fulfill a U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) post-marketing requirement. The fellow eyes of the same enrolled participants in the substudy will serve as the controls.
The safety and tolerability of MK-8591A, a 2-drug fixed dose combination (FDC) of doravirine (DOR 100mg) and islatravir (ISL 0.75mg) will be evaluated in participants with Human Immunodeficiency Virus -1 (HIV-1) who were treated with DOR and ISL in earlier clinical studies.
