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 is a phase 1 trial to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of single and multiple ascending doses and effect of food on the pharmacokinetics of a novel antimalarial drug in healthy adults. The study will enroll 104 healthy volunteers, males and females, aged 18 to 45 years and will consists of 3 parts: Part 1, Single Ascending Dose (SAD); Part 2, Multiple Ascending Dose (MAD); and Part 3, Food Effect. Part 2 and Part 3 may be initiated after a Safety Monitoring Committee (SMC) review and approval of the of Part 1 safety data. Study duration will be 16 months with patient participation duration 14 days for SAD and Food Effect, and 18 days for MAD. The primary objectives of this study are to: 1) assess the safety and tolerability of single doses of DM1157 at levels ranging from 9 mg to 900 mg; 2) assess the safety and tolerability of DM1157 administered as single daily doses for 3 days at levels ranging from 150 mg to 900 mg; 3) assess the safety and tolerability of DM1157 administered with or without food.
The purpose of this study is to collect device and procedure experience in everyday clinical practice. The patients are being asked to participate in this study because they are a surgical candidate for the treatment of a broken shoulder and are considering treatment with the PH Cage device.
The proposed study addresses a gap regarding the need for effective Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) treatments and the 40% of individuals treated with antidepressant medications that do not achieve full remission. This study tests a novel approach for treating MDD in a Randomized Control Trial (RTC) using yoga versus walking interventions to correct an imbalance in the Autonomic Nervous System; an over active Sympathetic Nervous System (fight or flight) an underactive Parasympathetic Nervous System (PNS) (rest, renewal and social engagement) and associated under activity in the neurotransmitter, gamma aminobutyric acid (GABA). This novel approach is complimentary to the use of antidepressant medications that primarily target the monoamine systems. Low activity in the PNS and GABA systems are also found in MDD, PTSD, and Alcohol Use Disorder, disorders representing a high healthcare burden in the Veteran population. This intervention has potential to provide relief for MDD and other disorders relevant the Veteran population
Background: Weight gain can lead to obesity and diabetes even in people living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Researchers want to see if the technique intermittent calorie restriction can help overweight people with HIV as an alternative to traditional diets. Objective: To see if intermittent calorie restriction leads to weight loss and improved blood sugar in obese people with HIV. Eligibility: Adults ages 18-65 with HIV who are obese and do not have diabetes Design: Participants will be screened with a medical history, physical exam, and blood and urine tests. Before starting treatment, participants will: - Have a nutritional consultation - Get a pedometer to record daily steps - Test a restricted diet for 1 day - Have a body x-ray At the baseline visit, participants will have: - Blood drawn after they drink a sugar drink - Questions about their health and eating - A nutritional consultation - Resting energy expenditure measured. Participants will fast overnight. Then they will lie down while a plastic bubble goes over the head and a plastic sheet covers the upper body. Oxygen flows into the bubble. - Liver stiffness test. A wand on the stomach releases sound waves like an ultrasound. For 12 weeks, some participants will be on a standard diet. Others will restrict how much food they eat 2 days a week. On those days they will eat about 25% of their recommended calories. Participants will keep a diary of their diet and steps. Participants will have 4 visits during the 12-week diet and 1 visit 12 weeks after the diet ends. They will repeat previous tests.
This study is a prospective single arm trial designed to study the safety and effectiveness of a medical device, NovoTTF-200A, used with stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) in subjects with brain metastases from small cell lung cancer (SCLC).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of MT-3724 in combination with gemcitabine and oxaliplatin (GEMOX) in participants with relapsed or refractory B-Cell NHL.
This phase II trial studies how well combination chemotherapy and inotuzumab ozogamicin work in treating patients with B acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, vincristine sulfate, doxorubicin hydrochloride, dexamethasone, methotrexate and cytarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as inotuzumab ozogamicin, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving combination chemotherapy and inotuzumab ozogamicin may work better at treating B acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
The purpose and primary objective of this study is to determine if there is an association between enteral tube feed (TF) osmolality and diarrhea in critically ill patients. The investigators hypothesize that the administration of a TF formulation with high osmolality will cause more diarrhea than a TF formulation with a lower osmolality.
This phase II trial studies how well neutron radiation therapy and pembrolizumab work in treating participants with urothelial carcinoma that has spread to other places in the body. Neutron radiation therapy uses high energy neutrons to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving radiation therapy and pembrolizumab may work better than radiation alone in treating participants with urothelial carcinoma that has spread to other places in the body.
This study is designed to compare the effectiveness of a closed suction system with an inflatable balloon on the catheter (Cleansweep system) to that of a standard closed suction system in terms of reducing the interior resistance of endotracheal tubes. Subjects who require frequent suctioning ( > every 2.5 hours) and who have stable cardiovascular systems will be randomized to receive suctioning either through the Cleansweep system or standard system initially followed by the corresponding system. The subjects will be suctioned every two hours for eight hours ( the first 2 suction procedures with one system followed by 2 with the other system). After each suction procedure measurements of resistance will be made using peak and plateau pressures. Analysis: For each patient, data for both procedures on each catheter system will be pooled and mean differences between the standard system and the Cleansweep system will be calculated. For all 20 patients the mean (+/- SD) of these differences will be calculated and significance will be sought using appropriate statistical tests. The study will be unblinded and randomization determines merely which system will used initially for the first 2 procedures.
