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.
Part 1of the study will evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and immunogenicity of increasing doses of a vaccine-based immunotherapy regimen (VBIR-2) for patients with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer and metastatic triple-negative breast cancer. Part 2 will evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, immunogenicity and preliminary evidence of efficacy of the Expansion dose of VBIR-2 in participants with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer.
The study is a prospective randomized longitudinal clinical study to compare pre-adapted patient-specific orbital implants utilizing an office-based 3-D printer versus standard non-adapted orbital implants (the latter being the traditional approach and current standard of care).
The superficial femoral artery (SFA) is frequently involved in atherosclerosis and is the most common target of lower extremity endovascular procedures performed in patients with claudication. Endovascular treatment of SFA is challenging, given its exceptional predisposition to atherosclerosis and its exposure to extreme mechanical forces of extension, compression, torsion and flexion. The SFA is located in a fibro-muscular canal, follows a tortuous course and is considered a 'hostile' location for endovascular procedures, especially stents due to the risk of stent fracture. On the other hand, durability of balloon angioplasty in the SFA is dismal (25% patency at 1 year). Therefore, Nitinol (a metal alloy of nickel and titanium) stent implantation is the mainstay of endovascular SFA interventions when balloon angioplasty (PTA) leads to sub-optimal results during a procedure. It is used in over 70% of all cases and in nearly 100% of all femoro-popliteal (FP) CTO (chronic total occlusions) and long (≥60 mm) interventions. Endovascular treatment of SFA is challenging and restenosis is the most common cause for the lack of durability of a SFA peripheral vascular interventional procedure.5 Restenosis rates of SFA bare metal (nitinol) stents or BMS at 1 year exceeds 50% for lesions ≥60 mm in length or CTO. Stent based treatment of the SFA may not offer any additional advantage for short non-CTO (<60 mm) lesions compared to PTA. In a recent study, primarily comparing drug-eluting stents (DES) to balloon angioplasty in the SFA, 12 month patency rates were 83.1% and 32.8%, respectively for DES and balloon angioplasty arms. However, there are no head-to head studies randomized studies comparing DES and BMS in the SFA. Thus, endovascular SFA intervention in patients with symptomatic PAD is an area of urgent need for high-quality evidence as volume of these procedures continues to rise exponentially in the U.S. and around the world, largely on the basis of insufficient evidence.Thus, the purpose of this study is to conduct a randomized pilot trial comparing DES and BMS for percutaneous revascularization of SFA.
Aim 1. Determine the feasibility and acceptability of the proposed mobile technology intervention to increase physical activity patients receiving treatment for renal cell carcinoma. Aim 2. Evaluate the effect of the proposed intervention components (affective framing, intention planning, and goal-setting) on changes in physical activity.
Determine the effectiveness of an electronic self-administered pre-visit planning tool allowing adolescents to list areas of concern to support shared decision-making and communication during an office visit through a randomized controlled trial (RCT).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the shockwave therapy to treat Erectile Dysfunction.
More than 90% of adult smokers initiate tobacco use before age 18, making prevention and treatment of adolescent smoking a critical health priority. Behavioral economic interventions utilizing financial incentives can promote smoking cessation in adult populations. No studies have evaluated financial incentives among adolescents to promote engagement in effective tobacco cessation programs through primary care settings. The goal of this study is to to compare, through a pilot, randomized controlled trial, an intervention incentivizing contact with a tobacco cessation program (the Quitline), an intervention incentivizing quitting, or no financial incentive intervention on adolescent smoker enrollment and depth of engagement in the tobacco cessation program.
This pilot phase I trial studies how well itacitinib works in treating patients with sarcomas that do not respond to treatment (refractory) and have spread to other parts of the body (advanced/metastatic). Itacitinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether ABI-009 will make advanced, malignant neuroendocrine tumor(s) of the lung, gastrointestinal tract and/or pancreas that cannot be removed by surgery smaller and slow the spread of your cancer in patients who have progressed or been intolerant to everolimus. All eligible participants will receive ABI-009, the study drug.
The study will evaluate patients requiring frequent glucose monitoring in a Surgical ICU. The study population includes surgical critical care patients who require blood glucose monitoring. Subjects must have a vascular access device [i.e., Central Venous Catheters (CVC), Multi-lumen Access Catheters (MAC) either in place or to be placed with an expected usage of at least 48 hours. During Phase One of the trial, patients will be connected to the OptiScanner for up to 72 hours and the hospital's current standard of care for glucose management will be followed.
