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.
Background: Nature-based virtual reality (VR) and other outdoor experiences in head-mounted displays (HMDs) offer powerful, non-pharmacological tools for hospice teams to help patients undergoing end-of-life (EOL) transitions. However, the psychological distress of the patient-caregiver dyad is interconnected and highlights the interdependence and responsiveness to distress as a unit. Hospice care services and healthcare need strategies to help patients and informal caregivers with EOL transitions.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate cardiometabolic and inflammatory parameters in kidney transplant recipients after transitioning to a plant-based diet (PBD). The main aims of the study are as follows: - To test the feasibility of transiting renal allograft recipients who are > 3 months post-transplant to a PBD - To study the effect of a PBD on cardiometabolic parameters in kidney transplant recipients - To assess the effect of a PBD on peripheral blood Th17/Treg ratio and systemic inflammation in kidney transplant recipients Participants will be asked to: - Complete a 2-week investigator-designed PBD transition program - Follow a PBD for a minimum of 16 weeks - Consent for blood draws, urine samples, and fecal samples along with physical exams - Complete intermittent food frequency questionnaires and quality of life questionnaires - Periodically meet with investigators and other study participants Researchers will compare baseline measurements with future measurements for each participant.
Multicenter, prospective, non randomized, single arm evaluation of patients with overactive bladder (OAB) and/or fecal incontinence (FI) employing the Axonics recharge free SNM System.
The goal of this interventional study is to test the feasibility of a new communication tool, call MyIBD, in youth ages 13 to 19 years with inflammatory bowel disease. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Is the MyIBD communication tool feasible to use in everyday clinical practice? - Does the MyIBD tool have potential to improve patients' self-management skills and the quality of care they receive? Participants who receive the MyIBD intervention will complete surveys about their care at three times points - at study enrollment, at 6 months, and at 12 months. The surveys will help the research team learn about the feasibility of using MyIBD in practice and about any effects on patients' self-management skills and quality of care. Researchers will compare those receiving a MyIBD document to a randomly selected control group (patients receiving usual care for pediatric inflammatory bowel disease) to see if self-management skills and quality of care differ between the groups.
The main purpose of this study is to determine effect of orforglipron capsule formulation on the amount of digoxin, rosuvastatin, acetaminophen, midazolam, and simvastatin (each given alone and together with orforglipron) that enters the bloodstream and how long it takes the body to eliminate them when administered orally in healthy overweight and obese participants. In addition, the effect of the orforglipron tablet on the amount of simvastatin that enters the bloodstream and how long it takes the body to eliminate it will be evaluated. The study will also assess the effect of sodium bicarbonate when administered alone with simvastatin versus orforglipron capsule containing sodium bicarbonate administered with simvastatin. The safety and tolerability of orforglipron and information about any side effects experienced will be collected. Study will be conducted in two parts, with part 1 and 2 lasting up to approximately 23 and 24 weeks each, including the screening period.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the safety of intralesional injections of triamcinolone self-administered into acne lesions via an injection assistance device. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - is use of the injection assistance device safe? - is delivery of triamcinolone to acne lesions via the injection assistance device efficacious? Participants will self-inject low dose triamcinolone into acne lesions and track lesion response via photos and survey for 14 days following injection.
This is a proof-of-concept phase 2 clinical trial to investigate the effect of the phytoestrogenic supplement PhytoSERM on vasomotor symptoms and other symptoms associated with the menopausal transition, and on blood-based biomarkers in peri- and postmenopausal women. After the screening period, participants will be randomized to PhytoSERM 50 mg pills (administered orally, once per day) or matching placebo, 1:1 allocation, for a period of 12 weeks. After 12 weeks, all participants in the placebo group will be crossed-over to receive PhytoSERM pills for the remainder of the study (open-label phase).
This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of E-SYNC chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells after lymphodepleting chemotherapy in treating patients with EGFRvIII positive (+) glioblastoma. Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy is a type of treatment in which a patient's T cells (a type of immune system cell) are changed in the laboratory so the CAR T cells will attack cancer cells. T cells are taken from a patient's blood. Then the gene for a special receptor that binds to a certain protein on the patient's cancer cells is added to the T cells in the laboratory. The special receptor is called a chimeric antigen receptor. Large numbers of the CAR T cells are grown in the laboratory and given to the patient by infusion for treatment of certain cancers. Lymphodepleting chemotherapy with cyclophosphamide and fludarabine before treatment with CAR T cells may make the CAR T cells more effective.
- The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of the TEMPO (iMOvifa) visual field perimeter screening test by measuring the sensitivity in a population of eyes with glaucoma and the specificity in a population of normal eyes and to measure repeatability of the screening test. - The secondary objective of this study is to gather and analyze ancillary data to confirm the diagnosis or absence of glaucoma.
Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state (HHS) are common, but serious metabolic disorders are often encountered in intensive care. In the intensive care setting, it is common to withhold food from patients during treatment of DKA. However, there is no evidence or current literature supporting this practice. The following proposed research investigates the initiation of an early diet versus withholding food during the treatment of diabetic ketoacidosis.
