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 research study is studying a drug as a possible treatment for heparin induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) or Heparin-induced Thrombocytopenia and Thrombosis (HITT). The drug involved in this study is apixaban.
This is a surgical biospecimen collection study. The purpose of this study is to understand how much of two drugs (dabrafenib and trametinib) are able to penetrate brain tumors and turn off the RAF signaling pathway. This is important because these drugs are currently FDA approved for other tumors and may have efficacy in brain tumors with the BRAF V600E mutation.
Alvocidib, a cyclin-dependent kinase 9 (CDK 9) inhibitor, in time-sequential therapy demonstrated significant clinical activity in secondary AML patients with prior MDS. Patients with IPSS-R intermediate and above MDS have an increased risk of developing AML and may be treated with the same chemotherapy regimens used in patients with AML. Eight Phase I or II clinical trials have been completed in patients with AML, totaling more than 400 patients with both relapsed/refractory or newly diagnosed AML. Preclinical studies have demonstrated that decitabine exposure increased the expression of NOXA, which is a specific antagonist of the survival factor MCL 1. Pharmacologic downregulation of MCL-1 via CDK 9 inhibition, as well as upregulation of the MCL-1 antagonist, NOXA, following decitabine exposure may result in enhanced antileukemic activity in MCL-1-dependent malignancies.
This study is designed to treat systemic sclerosis (scleroderma) patients with an autologous stem cell transplant using a regimen of immune suppressant drugs and chemotherapy that is less toxic to your heart.
One-third to one-half of acute strokes result in newly acquired cognitive impairments. Approximately 30 to 40% of people in the acute phase of stroke also sustain communication impairments. Stroke-related cognitive impairments are associated with significant functional disability, as indicated by the inability to regain independence in daily activities. The overall aim of this study is to examine the feasibility of an adapted form of strategy training for people with communication impairments who are admitted to inpatient rehabilitation. These analyses will address a critical gap in current rehabilitation research, namely the exclusion of people with communication impairments in acute stroke rehabilitation clinical trials, and provide pilot data to inform the design of future inclusive clinical trials seeking to reduce disability after stroke.
The overarching goal of this proposal is to test the efficacy of a multi-component, high intensity intervention, technology delivered, diabetes-modified behavioral activation treatment (TECH DM-BAT) that incorporates: 1) diabetes education; 2) home telemonitoring; and 3) diabetes modified behavioral activation, delivered by nurses via smartphones is effective in improving metabolic control in African Americans with poorly controlled type 2 diabetes.
This pilot study will test the effect of an online asynchronous psychoeducational intervention to improve relationship quality and prevent verbal-type elder mistreatment in caregiving dyads. The investigators will use a pre-post test design to test the feasibility and acceptability of this video-based intervention, and to determine the likelihood that participation in this program may improve caregiver relationship quality.
1. To evaluate the efficacy and safety of cariprazine at a target dose of 4.5 milligram per day (mg/d) compared with placebo in prevention of relapse in patients with schizophrenia 2. To evaluate the efficacy and safety of cariprazine at a target dose of 3.0 mg/d compared with placebo in prevention of relapse in patients with schizophrenia who were initially stabilized on a target dose of 4.5 mg/d
This is a randomized controlled feasibility trial for women diagnosed with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). The current front-line treatment for GDM is medical nutrition therapy (MNT), i.e. personalized diets which may or may not include mild carbohydrate restriction. Use of carbohydrate restriction increases the risk of the mother developing ketosis, a harmful condition for both the mother and fetus. If MNT is not enough to stabilize blood sugar levels, then pharmaceuticals are prescribed. In patients with type-2 diabetes and prediabetes, the carbohydrate-last food order behavior has been shown to improve post-meal blood sugar control without the need of reduced carbohydrate intake. Given this data, the addition of this intervention to MNT in patients with GDM may be helpful in achieving controlled blood sugar levels without increasing the risk of ketosis. This study will include two randomized groups diagnosed with GDM. Patients in the control group will be prescribed standard MNT. Patients in the intervention group will have identical MNT but with additional food order instruction/therapy. All patients will be followed up with at 1-2 week intervals. At each follow-up the physician and dietician will analyze the patient's blood sugar measurements and, among additional factors, determine if pharmaceuticals should be added. Treatment will continue through delivery. The primary aim of this study is to assess the feasibility of the carbohydrate last food order in GDM and generate preliminary data on its effects on glucose control.
This phase II trial studies how well savolitinib works in treating patients with MET amplified colorectal cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic) or cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). Savolitinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
