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.
Noise-induced hearing loss affects an estimated 5% of the worldwide population, with 30-40 million Americans exposed to hazardous sound or noise levels regularly. Sources of noise may be occupational, blast noise, or recreational. Trauma to the inner ear can occur through transient hearing loss or permanent hearing loss. Although hearing recovers after temporary transient hearing loss, growing evidence suggests that repeated temporary transient hearing loss may lead to a permanent hearing loss. Currently, there are no treatments and there are no known medications that can be used clinically to prevent noise-induced hearing loss in humans. The long-term goal of this research is to find medications that can prevent noise-induced hearing loss. The purpose of the present pilot study is to evaluate zonisamide and methylprednisolone as medications to prevent temporary transient hearing loss in humans.
The purpose of this study is to test whether physicians change their use of non-recommended tests, procedures, or medications more in response to evidence based-guidelines, price information, or an individual patient's story.
The purpose of this study is to test feasibility of measuring flumazenil-induced changes in cortical GABA levels observed with localized 1H-MRS in relation to changes in severity of hepatic encephalopathy (HE) in subjects with non-alcoholic liver cirrhosis. This study is a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized, cross-over design.
This phase I trial studies the highest and safest doses of dovitinib lactate, paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation, and gemcitabine hydrochloride when given together. Dovitinib lactate disrupts the activity of fibroblast growth factor receptors and reduces cancer growth and spread. Gemcitabine hydrochloride and paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation are anti-cancer drugs for treating many cancer types.
The purpose of this study is to compare the incidence of nausea and vomiting following short intermittent versus prolonged intermittent infusion of meropenem.
To evaluate the safety (acute adverse effects associated with infusions, and inhibitor development), pharmacokinetics (PK), and efficacy with respect to breakthrough bleeding and control of hemorrhaging during prophylaxis of IB1001 in subjects with hemophilia B.
This study involves doing platelet function testing in patients who have undergone fibrinolysis. Fibrinolysis (Use of clot busting medicine in heart attack) is the standard of care to restore blood flow in blocked arteries as soon as possible after the "Heart attack" in rural health center where access to cardiac catheterization is one hour away. Fibrinolysis is done by the emergency room physician in a timely fashion to minimize the damage of the myocardium. Additionally anti-platelet regimen as adjuvant for patient undergoing fibrinolysis has been well studied in many trials. In this study investigators will use clopidogrel or ticagrelor in randomized fashion to evaluate anti- platelet effect by measuring efficacy in vivo (pharmacodynamics) and blood levels of both drugs (Pharmacokinetics).
The purpose of this study has two major goals: 1) to measure the amount of two specific hormones interleukin (IL)-10 and interleukin (IL)-12p70 in mucous and blood; and 2) compare the hormone levels in two specific areas of the lung called the trachea (upper airway) and the bronchioles (lower airway). The hormones IL-10 and IL-12p70 are cytokines, special hormones cells use to communicate with each other during inflammation or infection. Cytokines can be measured in mucous and blood. The balance of one cytokine compared to another help doctors to understand how people respond differently to infection. Unfortunately, the amount of IL-10 and IL-12p70 is not known in children, especially children with a lung infection. In addition, we do not know if the balance of these cytokines differ in various regions of the lung. We believe the balance of IL-10 and IL-12p70 is similar whether measured in the upper or lower airways.
The purpose of this trial is to determine if the combination of goal directed iron supplementation and hepcidin mitigation can safely eliminate both the serum and bone marrow iron debt of anemic, critically ill trauma patients with functional iron deficiency.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate atomoxetine's effects on the rewarding and reinforcing effects of nicotine in a controlled human laboratory study with 24 otherwise healthy nicotine dependent subjects. It is hypothesized that atomoxetine will attenuate the negative effects of nicotine.
