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.
The goal of this study is to investigate if a timed release steroid injection may be beneficial in treating carpometacarpal (CMC) joint (thumb) osteoarthritis. The main questions to be answered are: 1. does the steroid injection substantially reduce pain in the thumb 2. does the steroid injection help to increase thumb function Participants will be asked to undergo a thumb CMC joint injection and to attend follow up visits to assess pain and thumb function.
The goal of this project is to conduct a clinical trial in 60 participants ranging from age 50-95 with small drusen who are at risk for age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The study will evaluate the effects of 28g of goji berry intake or an equivalent amount and type of fiber, five days a week for six months, on visual health, gut microbiome profiles, skin carotenoid measures, and lipoprotein profiles.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to see if combining a licensed COVID-19 vaccine and a licensed influenza vaccine into a single shot is safe and can help produce antibodies to defend the body against both SARS-CoV-2 (the virus that causes COVID-19) and influenza. Participants enrolled in this trial will be healthy adults, 50 years of age or older.
The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of a personal care product on vaginal health in individuals with a self-reported history of vaginal discomforts such as malodor, bothersome discharge, itching, irritation, and dryness. The personal care product, VH-01 contains a prebiotic and three distinct strains of Lactobacillus crispatus, a microbe commonly found in healthy vaginal microbiomes. The study will be a randomized, placebo-controlled trial where the test product will be compared to a placebo in a 2:1 manner. Participants will be asked to complete online questionnaires and provide vaginal samples to assess microbial communities. The aims of this study are to assess: 1. The user experience and acceptability of VH-01 vaginal suppository vs. placebo. 2. Attitudes and perceptions of VH-01 vaginal suppository usage vs. placebo. 3. Health-related quality of life during the use of VH-01 vaginal suppository vs. placebo. 4. Changes in self-perceived vaginal discomforts during the use of VH-01 vaginal suppository vs. placebo.
The purpose of the ProVIDE II Bridging Study is to evaluate the performance of the Generation II delivery system when deploying the ProVee expander in subjects with symptomatic urinary obstruction secondary to BPH.
To learn if asciminib can help to control CML. The safety and effects of this drug will also be studied.
The researchers are trying to test the feasibility and acceptability of using transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) in hospitalized adult patients with Treatment Resistant Depression (TRD), assess for any preliminary effect on depressive and cognitive symptoms, and explore the utility of biomarkers to assess response to tDCS.
Minoritized individuals with type 1 diabetes (T1D) have approximately 2% higher average A1c levels and twice the rate of hospitalizations, complications, and mortality as their white counterparts. However, the efficacy trials establishing the benefits of hybrid closed loop (HCL) pump therapy in T1D have been in more socially advantaged and predominantly non-Hispanic white patients. Use of this technology by individuals with T1D from underserved communities remains very low. The investigators plan to conduct a randomized effectiveness trial - with broader eligibility criteria (including markedly elevated A1c) and longer follow up than the previous HCL efficacy trials - to evaluate the benefits, safety risks and treatment complications of HCL use in underserved adults with T1D. A comprehensive mixed-methods approach will be implemented to capture information about the user experience. Participants will be randomized (3:1 ratio) to one of three FDA-approved HCL systems or continuous glucose monitoring and multiple daily injection therapy. Subjects will be followed for 9 months to collect data on effectiveness (glucose % time-in-range 70-180 mg/dL and % time < 70 mg/dL), safety (diabetic ketoacidosis and severe hypoglycemia events) and patient experience using the systems (including benefits and burdens, the impact of life stressors on HCL use, and how the match between HCL system functionality and the individual's needs and expectations impacts on user experience).
The purpose of this study is to see if the GEM intervention is acceptable and helpful to Black young adults with type 2 diabetes. The GEM intervention (coaching to reduce carbohydrate intake and increase physical activity after meals, with feedback from a continuous glucose monitor, CGM) might improve blood glucose levels, reduce diabetes distress, and increase empowerment and confidence in managing diabetes.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the NextGen Tracheostomy Toolkit in people who have a tracheostomy. The main questions it aims to answer are: - What is the number of atraumatic tracheostomy suctionings before and after the use of automated robotic suctioning device divided by the total number of tracheostomy suctionings across arms experimental group 1 vs. control group? - What is the number of atraumatic tracheostomy suctionings before and after the use of Nextgen Tracheostomy Toolkit divided by the total number of tracheostomy suctionings across arms experimental group 3 vs. control group? - What is the number of successful first-time tracheostomy tube change attempts before and after the use of mixed reality tracheostomy tube change device divided by the total number of tracheostomy tube changes across arms experimental group 2 vs. control group? - What is the number of successful first-time tracheostomy tube change attempts before and after the use of Nextgen Tracheostomy Toolkit divided by the total number of tracheostomy tube changes across arms experimental group 3 vs. control group? Participants will be randomly divided into 4 groups and assigned different interventions. 1. Experimental group 1 will receive suctionings using automated robotic suctioning device. 2. Experimental group 2 will receive tracheostomy tube changes using mixed reality tracheostomy tube changing system. 3. Experimental group 3 will receive Nextgen Tracheostomy Toolkit that includes suctionings using automated robotic suctioning device and tracheostomy tube changes using mixed reality tracheostomy tube changing system. 4. Control group will receive usual tracheostomy care Researchers will compare the four groups to see the effect of Nextgen tracheostomy toolkit and its components on the number of atraumatic tracheostomy suctionings and number of successful first-time tracheostomy tube changes.
