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 research study is testing body-worn sensors to measure movement during simple tests of coordination, in order to evaluate the progression and severity of ataxia.
This phase II trial studies how well the combination of apalutamide, abiraterone acetate, and prednisone after chemotherapy work in treating patients that have received no prior treatment (treatment naive) for high risk prostate cancer that is sensitive to androgen deprivation therapy (castration sensitive) and has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic). This study also aims to understand the inheritance of prostate cancer. If a gene or genes that cause prostate cancer can be found, the diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer may be improved. Testosterone (a male hormone) can cause the growth of prostate cancer cells. Hormone therapy using apalutamide may fight prostate cancer by blocking the use of testosterone by the tumor cells. Antihormone therapy, such as abiraterone acetate, may lessen the amount of testosterone made by the body. Anti-inflammatory drugs such as prednisone lower the body's immune response and are used with other drugs in the treatment of some types of cancer. Apalutamide, abiraterone acetate, and prednisone after chemotherapy may work better in treating patients with castration sensitive prostate cancer.
Background: Immunotherapy drugs use a person s own immune system to help fight cancer. These drugs work better for some people than others. The drug M7824 has helped some people with cancer. But it can cause side effects. Researchers want to learn all the side effects that M7824 can cause. Once they do, they can prevent or reduce these side effects in future cancer treatments. This will lead to better overall outcomes for people with cancer. Objective: To make a thorough list of adverse events in people with cancer being treated with systemic therapies including M7824 at the National Cancer Institute (NCI). Eligibility: Participants previously enrolled in NCI protocols #15-C-0179 and #18-C-0056 Design: All needed data have already been collected. These data are stored in existing records and databases. Researchers will review the medical records of adults with cancer who were enrolled in the above protocols. The data collected will be relevant to the specific objectives being addressed. Data will be collected only if 2 conditions are met. One, the principal investigator gave permission for use of the data gathered in the trial. Two, the participants of the trial did not opt out of future use of the data. Other protocols may be added. This will be done with an amendment. ...
This trial studies how well a lifestyle intervention works in reducing breast cancer risk through changing body composition and decreasing inflammation in normal weight women. This trial may help researchers learn more about diet and exercise programs designed to decrease body fat in postmenopausal women who are of normal weight but have an elevated risk of breast cancer because of excess body fat.
This study is intended to evaluate the impact of passive continuous remote patient monitoring to assist in the outpatient management of heart failure (HF) patients.
Objective 1: Characterize indices of systemic inflammation and gut microbiota composition and function after chronic (12 weeks) intake of pulses compared to control diet in human OW/OB-IR participants. Objective 2: Characterize dietary- and microbial-derived metabolite pools after regular intake of pulses (12 weeks) in human participants with OW/OB-IR compared to control diet. Objective 3: Characterize cognitive functioning after chronic (12 weeks) intake of pulses compared to control diet in human OW/OB-IR participants.
This randomized clinical trial will compare participants who receive HaRTC versus the nontreatment control arm to see if HaRTC helps urban American Indians and Alaska Natives who meet criteria for an alcohol use disorder to increase their engagement in cultural practices, enhance their quality of life, and reduce their alcohol-related harm.
The study designed is to evaluate the safety of Canady Helios™ Cold Plasma Scalpel (CHCPS) in patients with solid tumors with carcinomatosis scheduled to undergo surgical resection for cytoreduction. Patients with stage 4 resectable tumors as decided by a multidisciplinary disease management team may be included if the metastatic disease is non-synchronous (e.g. recurrent colorectal carcinoma with hepatic metastasis amenable for surgical resection).. Plasma is an ionized gas typically generated in high-temperature laboratory conditions. Plasma coagulators are currently used routinely as surgical tools with multiple applications that create temperatures between 37° C to 43°C and cause thermal injury. Earlier studies demonstrated the non-aggressive nature of cold plasma. As evidence accumulates, it is becoming clear that low-temperature cold plasma has an increasing role in biomedical applications.
The EASE Clinical Trial is prospective, multi-center, single-arm (open-label), non-randomized, clinical trial to evaluate the Minitouch Endometrial Ablation System ("Minitouch System") in premenopausal women with menorrhagia.
The goal of this study is to experimentally test whether baby items can promote healthy infant development.
