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.
Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) is a noninvasive local therapy with proven efficacy in a number of solid tumor types. However, colorectal cancer (CRC) liver metastases have been shown to be particularly resistant to SBRT, and often are found to have significantly worse rates of control compared with other histologies. Higher SBRT dose was recently shown to improve local control in CRC pulmonary metastases, however, increasing dose delivery with SBRT has been limited based on the risk of toxicity to adjacent structures, and the ability to visualize them during treatment. This is particularly relevant in treating liver tumors, as tumor and small bowel movement can often make tumor targeting and organs-at-risk (OAR) avoidance especially difficult. MRI-guided SBRT for liver tumors is both safe and feasible and offers an as yet unprecedented opportunity to achieve the highest possible safe dose to liver tumors. The purpose of this trial is to identify a safe maximum tolerated dose level for MRI-guided SBRT treatment of bowel and liver metastases, respectively. Eligible participants will be on study for up to 12 months.
This study compares the health effects of dermal and inhalational exposure to thirdhand cigarette smoke to those of inhalational exposure to secondhand cigarette smoke in healthy, adult nonsmokers. Our hypothesis is that dermal exposure increases exposure to the tobacco specific carcinogen, NNK and may affect both endothelial function and epidermal integrity.
30 patients will be enrolled in a prospective, multi-center, one-arm study, enrolling patients with claudication and chronic limb ischemia scheduled for lower limb venous bypass grafting on clinical grounds with single segment autologous saphenous vein. Subjects will be followed for 5 years, with follow up visits at 1, 3, 6, 12 months, 2, 3, 4, 5, years post operation.
Aging and obesity are both risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD). One process that links both of these conditions to CVD is vascular dysfunction. Data from animal studies indicate that endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress may play an important role in the development of endothelial dysfunction in aging and obesity. Therefore, the goal of this study is to investigate the relative contributions of aging and obesity on vascular dysfunction and ER stress. Additionally, this study will determine if taking an oral supplement for 8 weeks will improve vascular dysfunction and ER stress. Results from this study have the potential to identify a safe treatment option for improving vascular function in aging and obese populations.
This study will examine whether supplementation with the serotonin and dopamine precursors, 5HTP and L-DOPA can alter central nervous system excitability and improve motor function after incomplete and complete spinal cord injuries.
To evaluate safety and efficacy
This phase I trial studies the best dose and side effects of M3814 when given in combination with mitoxantrone, etoposide, and cytarabine in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). M3814 may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Chemotherapy drugs, such as mitoxantrone, etoposide, and cytarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving M3814 in combination with mitoxantrone, etoposide, and cytarabine may lower the chance of the acute myeloid leukemia growing or spreading.
This study is a single-arm, open-label, phase I/II trial designed to find a CMP-001 dose that, in combination with pembrolizumab, has optimal clinical efficacy and acceptable toxicity for patients with relapsed and refractory lymphomas.
This study evaluates the effect of three different exercise strategies on physical function in older adults. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three exercise groups: resistance training, moderate-intensity continuous cycling on a stationary bicycle, and high-intensity interval training on a stationary bicycle.
This is a first in human, single arm, open label, Phase 1a/1b study to determine the safety, feasibility, and efficacy of a single dose of NeoTCR-P1 T cells in participants with solid tumors.
