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 15 patient clinical trial assessing the safety and feasibility of using Endometrial Regenerative Cells (ERC) in patients with critical limb ischemia (CLI) that are not eligible for surgical or catheter-based interventions. Three doses of ERC will be examined. The hypothesis is that ERC administration will be well-tolerated and possibly induce a therapeutic benefit.
This is a single site, randomized, placebo-controlled, cross-over trial of sub-cutaneous injections of placebo and Stelara™ (ustekinumab) in subjects with scalp psoriasis.The purpose of the study is to assess the effectiveness of Stelara™ (ustekinumab)in the treatment of scalp psoriasis by determining the proportion of subjects who clear or almost clear in scalp specific physician assessments. The study will include approximately 30 subjects.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the drug Leukine (GM-CFS) is safe and tolerated by patients with autoimmune myasthenia gravis (MG).
The purpose of this study is to compare injecting local anesthetic (numbing medication) in different patterns around a major nerve in the leg. Patients who undergo surgery to the lower leg and/or foot are usually offered the option of a nerve block to help with pain control after surgery. A nerve block involves injecting local anesthetic (numbing medicine) by a nerve or nerves that provide sensation to the area where surgery will be performed. The local anesthetic (numbing medication) numbs up the area where the surgery is performed and helps decrease the amount of pain felt after surgery. The local anesthetic (numbing medication) can be injected in various patterns by a nerve, such as in one spot by a nerve or completely surrounding a nerve. The local anesthetic will be either injected around the sciatic nerve or will injected in a way that will split the sciatic nerve into the two component nerves that make it up, the tibial and sciatic, and surrounds each nerve. The hypothesis is that subjects in the group that local anesthetic is injected in a pattern that separates the sciatic nerve into the two component nerves may have a faster onset time of regional anesthesia and block success than subjects in the group that have the local anesthetic injected at around the nerve.
A clinical outcomes study measuring reduction in pain and numbness experienced in four types of peripheral neuropathy patients during 60 day administration of the an amino acid formulation.
This study will evaluate a telephone-delivered cognitive-behavioral psychotherapy intervention designed for primary care treatment of combat-exposed service members with PTSD. The investigators will assess Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) symptoms, mental health-related and occupational functioning, and symptoms of depression, anxiety, and somatization.
To the best of the investigators knowledge, exhaustive characterization of the low and high abundant proteins and glyco-proteins of the Follicular Fluid (FF) has not yet been achieved. Such an analysis may provide critical molecular data on the role of the FF in oocyte maturation and may identify specific changes in the FF proteome of patients with gynecologic problems, such as Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS). Specific Aims 1. To perform a comprehensive analysis of normal human FF using sensitive mass spectrometry in combination with conventional approaches for proteomic evaluation and using HPLC and Western blot for glyco-proteomic analysis. 2. Characterize differential proteomic and glyco-proteomic patterns of the FF in normal women compared to lean and obese women with PCOS. 3. To supplement the differential proteomic and glyco-proteomic analysis with steroid hormone analysis in all FF samples.
This study is designed to compare the performance of the P-1000 System, POCARED's Rapid Diagnostic System which uses optical fluorescence analysis, to standard methods of uropathogen quantification and identification.
This is a review of previously published data from a large prostate cancer prevention study known as REDUCE. It is the investigators intention to review whether prostate specific antigen (PSA) velocity (change over time) will predict the presence of prostate cancer and its grade and stage (severity).
The main purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness and accuracy of tissue cultures and swab cultures to diagnose prosthetic joint infection.
