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.
An Open-Label Part is added: This part will enroll in selected sites which are less affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. 150 subjects with NASH and fibrosis confirmed by liver histology (F1-F3) will be randomized into 3 groups according to the post-baseline biopsy. The objective of the Open-Label Part is: - To evaluate the safety and PK of twice daily administration (BID) of Aramchol 300mg in subjects with NASH and liver fibrosis. - To explore the kinetics of histological outcome measures and Non-Invasive Tests (NITs) associated with NASH and fibrosis for the treatment duration of 24, 48 and 72 weeks. All patients will be allocated to Aramchol. Double Blind Part: This part is double blind, placebo controlled randomized in subjects with NASH and fibrosis stages 2-3 who are overweight or obese and have prediabetes or type 2 diabetes. The primary objectives of this part of the study are to evaluate the effect of Aramchol as compared to placebo on NASH resolution, fibrosis improvement and clinical outcomes related to progression of liver disease. Subjects will be randomized to receive Aramchol 300mg BID or matching placebo in a 2:1 randomization ratio.
Two limitations of single pulse, laser treatment of port-wine stains (PWS) are: (i) hemorrhage and purpura which may lead to post-treatment pigmentation and (ii) the necessity for repeated treatment sessions. In contrast, multiple pulses induce summation of irreversible, thermal injury from a series of lower-peak temperature heating cycles and may therefore reduce mechanical injury while preserving the selectivity of photothermal injury. Ideally, hemorrhage could be prevented and the efficiency of vessel closure could be greater. A clinical and histological pilot study of 10 adults with either facial or non-facial PWS is therefore proposed here.
The overarching long-term goal is to develop a CTS Treatment Center within the Hand Clinic that offers a variety of established and emerging treatment options in a multidisciplinary program. The ultra-minimally invasive carpal tunnel release would be one component of the program. Furthering the knowledge with regard to ultra-minimally invasive carpal tunnel release outcomes would facilitate the Hand Clinics ability to offer this procedure as a component of individualized care in the CTS Treatment Center to facilitate delivery of the appropriate level of care to the right patient.
The purpose of this research study is to test the safety and effectiveness of docetaxel chemotherapy and pembrolizumab plus adenoviral-mediated interleukin-12 (ADV/IL-12) gene therapy in patients with anthracycline-refractory, triple negative breast cancer (TNBC).
This is an early feasibility study to evaluate the proof of concept of modulation of glycemia by non-invasive ultrasound vagus nerve stimulation. This protocol is exploratory in nature, therefore it is not intended to capture statistically valid results or test statistical hypotheses. However, statistical analysis of the primary endpoint will be performed to allow more critical reflection of the data and to estimate the treatment effect for consider-ation in further studies.
In this phase II advanced melanoma study, all patients will receive treatment with nivolumab/ipilimumab plus cabozantinib for a 12 week induction period followed by nivolumab plus cabozantinib maintanence to complete up to 2 years of therapy unless disease progression, dose limiting toxicity, provider/patient decision or patient withdrawal of consent occurs. The primary endpoint is the one year PFS rate. Patients will have staging scans at baseline and every 12 weeks during the first 2 years on study. Safety evaluations including labs, EKG and history and physical will occur at each visit. Baseline tumor sample is required and on treatment biopsy will be optional of superficial tumor in the skin, subcutaneous tissue or lymph node that is palpable.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of a low-fat, plant-based dietary intervention and a portion-controlled dietary intervention (compliant with current American Diabetes Association (ADA) guidelines) on changes in intramyocellular and hepatocellular lipid content in adults with type 2 diabetes. Changes in insulin sensitivity and glycemic control will also be assessed in this study. The study duration is 44 weeks.
The goal is to address the mechanisms that account for alteration of circadian rhythms with age. As the blood of aged individuals can produce this alteration, the investigators propose to use such blood samples to "age" circadian rhythms in cultured cells. The investigators will verify aged blood-dependent alteration of rhythms and then conduct molecular screens to reverse this decline. If the investigators identify specific genes that can restore molecular circadian rhythm in vitro, the investigators will explore these in animal models (Drosophila, mouse).
This phase I/II trial studies the best dose of total body irradiation with astatine-211 BC8-B10 monoclonal antibody for the treatment of patients with nonmalignant diseases undergoing hematopoietic cell transplant. Radiation therapy uses high energy gamma rays to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Astatine-211-labeled BC8-B10 monoclonal antibody is a monoclonal antibody, called anti-CD45 monoclonal antibody BC8-B10, linked to a radioactive/toxic agent called astatine 211. Anti-CD45 monoclonal antibody BC8-B10 is attached to CD45 antigen positive cancer cells in a targeted way and delivers astatine 211 to kill them. Giving astatine-211 BC8-B10 monoclonal antibody and total-body irradiation before a donor stem cell transplant may help stop the growth of cells in the bone marrow, including normal blood-forming cells (stem cells) and cancer cells. It may also stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells.
Stopping prescription opioid pain medications can be difficult due to withdrawal symptoms. This study will test if LUCEMYRA helps reduce withdrawal symptoms and helps more people reduce their opioid dose compared to placebo.
