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.
The study is to lay the groundwork for non invasive imaging of the GI tract and the brain gut interaction
The study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of gene therapy in boys with DMD. It is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study with two thirds of participants assigned to gene therapy. The one third of participants who are randomized to the placebo arm will have an opportunity for treatment with gene therapy at the beginning of the second year.
This trial studies how well radiation therapy techniques, volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) and tomotherapy, work to reduce doses to the lung compared to standard total body irradiation methods to prevent pulmonary toxicities. Standard total body irradiation is limited in its ability to spare normal organs, with only the lung being partially spared by lung blocks and risks the development of pulmonary toxicities. Reducing the doses to the lung using VMAT or tomotherapy may improve survival and decrease long term lung side effects in patients undergoing stem cell transplant.
This research study is for participants that have been diagnosed with intractable Obsessive -compulsive disorder (OCD). OCD is a persistent and oftentimes disabling disorder marked by unwanted and distressing thoughts (obsessions) and irresistible repetitive behaviors. OCD affects 2-3% of the US population, and is responsible for substantial functional impairment and increased risk of early death. The only established first-line treatments for OCD are cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) with exposure/response prevention and certain medications. About 30-40% of patients fail to respond and few experience complete symptom resolution. Up to 25% of patients have difficulty tolerating CBT and the risk of relapse after therapies remains large. For the most severe cases, neurosurgery (surgery in the brain), has long been the option of last resort. In this study the investigators want develop an adaptive Deep Brain Stimulation (aDBS) system to use in subjects with intractable (hard to control) OCD. Deep brain stimulation remains investigational for OCD patients and is not considered standard therapy. DBS involves the surgical implantation of leads and electrodes into specific areas of the brain, which are thought to influence the disease. A pack implanted in the chest, called the neurotransmitter, keeps the electrical current coursing to the brain through a wire that connects the neurotransmitter and electrodes. It is believed deep brain stimulation may restore balance to dysfunctional brain circuitry implicated in OCD. The goal of this study is to enhance current approaches to DBS targeting in the brain and to use a novel approach to find a better and more reliable system for OCD treatment. This current research protocol will focus on the completion of Phase Ib which will implant the RC+S system in 2 subjects.
Examine the analytical and clinical performance of Atellica IM TnIH assay for the diagnosis and rule out of acute myocardial injury and myocardial infarction in patients presenting to the emergency department in whom serial cTnI measurements are obtained on clinical indication.
This is the open-label extension study of phase II ARGX-113-1802 to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of the subcutaneous formulation of efgartigimod in adults with CIDP. Patients already stabilized on efgartigimod PH20 SC will also have the opportunity to participate in a sub study to explore less frequent dosing of efgartigimod PH20 SC.
Platelet activation has been associated with bad events like heart attack and stroke. There are a variety of platelet activators that regulate how active a platelet is. We are interested in Protease-activated receptors (PAR)-1. We are currently studying PAR-1 activation in persons with severe peripheral artery disease. We seek, through this project, to understand PAR-1 activation in persons without peripheral artery disease. As many patients with peripheral artery disease have diabetes, we will also evaluate PAR-1 activation in persons with type 2 diabetes. In addition we will assess the impact of the glucagon-like peptide (GLP)-1 signaling pathway on platelet activation. Levels of platelet activation will be determined using platelet aggregation experiments and assessment of platelet-monocyte aggregates in peripheral blood.
The purpose of this study is to test a new educational video to help patients and doctors talk about CAR-T cell therapy, a treatment being used in cancer. - Educational video tool for patients receiving CAR-T cell therapy.
This investigation will be a longitudinal clinical trial to study the long-term clinical performance of a resin cement for chairside CAD/CAM restorations. Lithium disilicate chairside CAD/CAM onlays will be adhesively bonded using a selective enamel etch technique with an adhesive. Full contour zirconia crowns will be cemented using a self-adhesive resin cement.
The MOOD study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of a noninvasive, self-administered external Combined Occipital and Trigeminal Neurostimulation (eCOT-NS) treatment for Major Depressive Disorder (Relivion®DP). This is a prospective, multi-center, 2-arm randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, sham-controlled study. The study will include the following stages: 1. Screening, Eligibility evaluation and Randomization to Relivion®DP vs. Sham control (1:1 randomization) (Baseline - Day 0). 2. Daily treatment period: Active/Sham (Group A/B) treatment protocol (Baseline to end of 8 weeks). 3. Open label phase: Active treatment period of additional 8 weeks. After completion of the open label period the subject's participation in the study will be over.
