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.
People with SCI are at higher risk of obesity and chronic diseases, such as hypertension, high cholesterol, diabetes and cardiovascular disease, than the general population. Researchers currently lack data on factors that influence weight gain among people with SCI. During this one-year observational study, study staff will enroll 60 individuals with SCI while they are inpatients at Baylor Scott & White Institute for Rehabilitation (BSWIR). Data will be collected at 3 time periods (before discharge and 6 and 12 months after discharge) in order to better understand factors that affect weight gain over the first 12 months following discharge from inpatient rehabilitation, such as nutritional intake, environmental access, psychosocial factors, energy requirements and risk factors for metabolic syndrome. These data will be used to inform future interventions for people with SCI.
The purpose of this study is to examine how Bayesian belief updating changes throughout psychotherapeutic treatment for persecutory delusions. Specifically, individuals with a psychotic disorder diagnosis who endorse both a current persecutory delusion with strong conviction and significant worry will be recruited and randomized to receive either a CBT-based worry intervention for persecutory delusions or an active control condition (befriending therapy). The investigators will examine: 1) whether belief updating parameters change as delusion severity changes, 2) whether CBT contributes to greater change in belief updating parameters than befriending therapy, and 3) whether neural correlates of belief updating parameters, as measured using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), predict treatment response.
Kawasaki disease (KD) is the leading cause of acquired heart disease in children in the developed world. Despite available treatment, 25% of children in San Diego County appropriately treated for KD develop coronary artery abnormalities that could lead to complications later in life, including heart attack. Although we can identify children with KD that have these coronary artery abnormalities, there is no approved additional treatment to decrease coronary artery inflammation and arrest or prevent damage to the coronary arteries. Statins, a class of drugs that is known for lowering cholesterol, have also been shown to decrease inflammation in general as well as at the level of the vessel wall. Anakinra, a therapy that blocks the high levels of interleukin 1 (IL1) that leads to inflammation during acute KD, has been shown in the KD mouse model to prevent the development of coronary artery damage. Both of these therapies have been demonstrated to be safe and well-tolerated in KD patients. Therefore, we propose to study the effects of combination therapy with atorvastatin and anakinra in children with acute KD and early coronary artery abnormalities.
This study aims to evaluate the comparative risk of dementia/Alzheimer's disease onset between patients treated with medications that target specific metabolic pathways and patients treated with alternative medications for the same indication.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ociperlimab + tislelizumab compared with that of pembrolizumab in adults with PD-L1 high, locally advanced/recurrent or untreated metastatic NSCLC.
A quasi-experimental non-randomized pre/post with control group trial of two models of cancer survivorship care in early-stage colorectal and breast cancer survivors cared for in a community-based, integrated health care setting.
A Phase II Multicenter, Open-Label, Single Arm Study to Determine the Efficacy, Safety and Tolerability of AZD2811 and Durvalumab Combination as Maintenance Therapy After Induction with Platinum-Based Chemotherapy Combined with Durvalumab, for the First-Line Treatment of Patients with Extensive Stage Small-Cell Lung Cancer.
This is a pilot study to evaluate the usability and feasibility of a telehealth-delivered advance care planning intervention among 20 older patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), their caregivers, and oncologists.
The aim of the study is to examine the efficacy of supplementing sub-optimal ambient room lighting with a task lamp on working memory and procedural learning.
This is an open-label, multicenter, Phase 2 study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of mogamulizumab given Q4W following initial weekly induction in adult participants with relapsed/refractory MF and SS subtypes of CTCL. The study is composed of a 28-day Screening Period during which participants are screened for entry into this study, followed by a treatment period of up to 2 years from Cycle 1 Day 1.
