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.
Objective: To improve quality-of-life and health care delivery to patients receiving ureteral stents. Specific Aims: Evaluate the feasibility, practicality, and qualitative outcomes of utilizing intra-nasal ketorolac in patients with indwelling ureteral stents (Phase I), followed by a randomized trial comparing two non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, intra-nasal Ketorolac versus oral Diclofenac. Hypotheses: Due to its favorable pharmacokinetics in relieving acute pain, investigators expect improved pain scores and a lower rate of unplanned clinical encounters in patients receiving intra-nasal ketorolac compared to those taking oral diclofenac following ureteroscopic surgery for urolithiasis. Study Rationale: Following ureteroscopic management of urolithiasis, patient with indwelling ureter stents have higher levels of discomfort compared to those without a ureter stent. Prior studies showed that intramuscular Ketorolac at time of ureter stent removal decreased the incidence of unplanned clinical encounters. Furthermore, onset of analgesic effect by intra-nasal ketorolac is faster than its oral form, and similar its intramuscular and intravenous counterparts.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test an addiction-clinic based behavioral intervention for increasing PrEP uptake and adherence among women who engage in high-risk sexual behaviors and problematic substance use. The main question it aims to answer is: • If the integrated intervention increase PrEP uptake and adherence compared to standard treatment Participants will - receive provision of PrEP information through 4 counseling sessions - prevention navigation - receive nurse practitioner prescribed PrEP in an addiction treatment setting Researchers will compare intervention group with standard treatment to see if the integrated intervention help increase PrEP uptake and adherence
Studies show that virtually all increases in children's (5-12yrs) BMI occur during the summer, no matter children's' weight status (i.e., normal weight, overweight, or obese) at summer entry. Recent preliminary studies show that children engage in healthier behaviors on days that they attend summer day camps, and that BMI gain does not accelerate for these children. The proposed randomized dose-response study will identify the dose-response relationship between amount of summer programming and summer BMI gain.
Too few clinicians are able and willing to help autistic patients. A recent review identified challenges to mental health service delivery in autism, including a lack of interventions designed for community implementation and limited workforce capacity. It has been argued that improving impairment in emotion regulation has the potential to improve a range of mental health difficulties in autistic people. In this clinical trial, the investigators are comparing two evidence-based interventions for emotion regulation, to determine if one created specifically for autistic people is clinically superior. The interventions will be implemented in the community, through partnering agencies.
Circadian rhythm disruption caused by shift work alters metabolic and hormonal pathways, which accelerates chronic disease onset, leading to decreased quality and quantity of life. Preclinical studies indicate that optimizing nutrient and sleep/rest timing can mitigate these effects. Female nightshift healthcare workers will be recruited to participate in a randomized crossover trial in which participants will be expected to follow the prescribed lifestyle intervention for eight weeks during the first or second eight-week periods of the study.
The purpose of this gene therapy research study is to test the safety and tolerability of using a new treatment called autologous T lymphocyte chimeric antigen receptor cells against the B7-H3 antigen (iC9.CAR.B7-H3 T cells) in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma that came back after receiving standard therapy for this cancer. The iC9.CAR.B7-H3 treatment is experimental and has not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn the effects of baricitinib (the study drug) in patients with Oral Lichen Planus. The main questions it aims to answer are: - What is the efficacy of baricitinib in treating moderate to severe Oral Lichen Planus? - Can baricitinib treatment in Oral Lichen Planus change quality of life? - What side effects do patients with Oral Lichen Planus experience when treated with baricitinib? Participants will be required to come in to monthly visits for up to eight months. During visits, participants will be: - Evaluated for the extent of their disease - Asked to fill out a questionnaire about their quality of life - Given baricitinib for them to take at home for six months - Evaluated for any potential side experienced while on treatment - Asked to return 1 month after completing treatment
The purpose of this study is to see the effects of an investigational combination treatment of venetoclax, azacitidine, and donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) in patients with high-risk AML receiving allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation, and to assess if the combination treatment is well tolerated and prevents disease relapse after transplant.
This study will evaluate the effect of providing access to GPT-4, a large language model, compared to traditional diagnostic decision support tools on performance on case-based diagnostic reasoning tasks.
This clinical trial is studying solid tumor cancers. A solid tumor is one that starts in part of your body like your lungs or liver instead of your blood. Once they've grown bigger in one spot or spread to other parts of the body, they're harder to treat. This is called advanced or metastatic cancer. Participants in this study must have breast cancer or gastric cancer. Participants must have tumors that have HER2 on them. This allows the cancer to grow more quickly or spread faster. There are few treatment options for patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors that express HER2. This clinical trial uses an experimental drug called disitamab vedotin (DV). Disitamab vedotin is a type of antibody drug conjugate or ADC. ADCs are designed to stick to cancer cells and kill them. This clinical trial uses a drug called tucatinib, which has been approved to treat cancer in the United States and some other countries. This drug is sold under the brand name TUKYSA®. This study will test how safe and how well DV, with or without tucatinib, is for participants with solid tumors. This study will also test what side effects happen when participants take these drugs. A side effect is anything a drug does to the body besides treating the disease.
