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.
Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease ("GERD") can happen when stomach acid flows backward into your esophagus (tube from the mouth to the stomach), causing symptoms such as heartburn. Proton pump inhibitors (called "PPIs") are a type of medication that reduce acid in the stomach and are used to reduce the discomfort from GERD. Treatment for GERD with PPIs is recommended to last up to eight weeks; however, many people take them for longer periods. Some people are placed on PPIs (particularly in the hospital) to prevent ulcers and inflammation of the stomach, but they do not need to be on the medication long term. Previous research studies have shown that there are some risks with taking PPIs for a long time. These risks include the inability of your body to absorb some vitamins and minerals, certain infections such as pneumonia or the digestive tract infection called "C. diff," and possibly bone fractures. Therefore, it is desirable to stop taking a PPI when possible. The purpose of this study is to use a standard approach to help patients stop taking PPIs by adopting lifestyle habits known to reduce the symptoms of GERD while they slowly reduce their PPI dose. All medications used for this study are approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA"). You are being asked to take part in this study because you have been taking a PPI for longer than the recommended time, and have either a diagnosis of GERD, gastritis, or an unclear indication for being on a PPI. About 100 patients from the Mount Carmel St. Ann's Family Medicine practice will participate in this research.
PRECISION-HD2 is a Phase 1b/2a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of single and multiple doses of WVE-120102 in adult patients with early manifest Huntington's disease (HD) who carry a targeted single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs362331 (SNP2).
This research study is studying Ulocuplumab combined with ibrutinib as a possible treatment for symptomatic Waldenstrom's Macroglobulinemia (WM).
The purpose of this study is to enable continued access to zilucoplan (RA101495) for patients with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) after they complete a zilucoplan clinical study.
This dose-escalation study evaluated the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic (PK), pharmacodynamic, and explore antitumor activity of M3541 in combination with fractionated palliative radiotherapy (RT) in participants with solid tumors with malignant lesions in the thorax, abdominal cavity, head and neck region, or extremities likely to benefit from palliative RT.
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety and tolerability of emerfetamab in adults with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and to estimate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or a biologically active dose (eg, recommended phase 2 dose [RP2D]).
The goal of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of anakinra for the treatment of acute pericarditis when initiated within 6 hours of diagnosis and continued for 3 or 7 days. 1. to determine the efficacy of anakinra with respect to chest pain resolution 2. to determine the safety of anakinra with respect to adverse drug events
This is a randomized, multicenter, two-arm, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of Qapzola in participants with low- to intermediate-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC), assessed according to the 2016 American Urology Association (AUA) Guidelines. Specifically, only participants with the following low-to intermediate-risk tumor characteristics were included in the study. 2016 American Urological Association Stratification for Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer: Low Risk - Low grade solitary Ta ≤3 centimeters (cm) - Papillary urothelial neoplasm of low malignant potential (PUNLMP) Intermediate Risk - Recurrence within 1 year, low-grade Ta - Solitary low-grade Ta >3 cm - Low-grade Ta, multifocal - High-grade Ta, ≤3 cm (solitary tumor)
Background: The number of patients with esophageal cancer keeps rising. For many patients, a combination of surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation is necessary to completely treat the disease. Usually, patients receive chemotherapy and radiation at the same time followed by surgery to remove the part of the esophagus with the tumor (Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT)). Researchers want to learn how to make this treatment more effective. Objective: To see if biopsies before treatment can show which patients will do the best with a combination of chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery. Eligibility: Adults at least 18 years old with esophageal adenocarcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma who should be treated with chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery. Design: Patients will undergo standard testing that is routine for all patients with this disease. These tests include: Medical history Physical exam with activity and nutritional assessment Standard lab tests Imaging studies including a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scan and positron-emission tomography (PET) scan Breathing test into a machine to measure size and function of lungs. Biopsy for a small sample of tumor is removed by esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD): A tube inserted into the mouth under anesthesia Endoscopic ultrasound is performed in some but not all patients. Patients will have nCRT at the clinic or with their local doctor. In 6 -12 weeks after nCRT, patients will undergo surgery with: 1. A robotically-assisted, minimally-invasive esophagectomy 2. Or, a traditional, open approach. After surgery, patients are usually in the hospital for 2 weeks and have a feeding tube for at least 2 weeks and potentially longer until they are eating enough to not lose weight. Patients will return for follow-up visits with labs and CAT scans every 6 months for the first two years then every year afterwards.
This is a Phase 1/2, multinational, open-label, ascending-dose, delayed-treatment concurrent control clinical study to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of AT342 in subjects with Crigler-Najjar aged ≥1 year. Subjects will receive a single dose of AT342 and will be followed for safety and efficacy for 5 years.
