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 study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and PK profiles of RMC-6291 and RMC-6236 in adults with KRAS G12C-mutated solid tumors.
Lower back pain (LBP) is one of the most common causes of disability, with 68% of adults over 60 years of age suffering from chronic Lower Back Pain (cLBP). In addition to the exacerbation of physical, social and emotional health issues, LBP has a staggeringly high US economic burden. Community-dwelling older adults experience a significant amount of chronic pain and treatments that are effective in their younger adult counterparts (e.g., pain medications, exercise) are often not safe or feasible. Our long-term goal is to decrease cLBP and improve function in older adults residing in continuing care retirement communities (CCRC). Battlefield Acupuncture (BFA), a promising treatment for cLBP, is an auricular (ear-based) treatment intended to compliment traditional allopathic medical treatments for acute and chronic pain. Auricular acupuncture has been implemented and used widely in the US military. Despite emerging evidence supporting the use of BFA in chronic pain, BFA has not been used to treat older adults with cLBP residing in CCRC. To this end, we propose an adapted group BFA protocol for CCRC residents. We will determine the feasibility and acceptability of implementing group BFA for cLBP at the University of Iowa (UI) Family Medicine-affiliated CCRCs by evaluating patient participation rates and retention, comfort with the protocol and satisfaction with the sessions, protocol delivery and ease of use. We will also determine treatment effectiveness by evaluating pain scales in cLBP, pain medication use, mobility, and falls. Data obtained from this study will inform the design of a future clinical trial testing group BFA for the management of cLBP in older adults.
This phase I trial tests the safety of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)/ ultrasound (US) fusion guided transperineal targeted microwave ablation (TMA) before a radical prostatectomy (RP) and how well it works in treating patients with prostate cancer. Prostate cancer is the second most common cancer in men and most will never become aggressive. Despite this, most men choose to undergo treatment which may include surgery. Removing the prostate gland and sometimes the lymph nodes (radical prostatectomy) is an invasive treatment for prostate cancer that can have a significant negative on quality of life. TMA is a less invasive procedure that uses high temperatures given through the skin between the scrotum and the rectum (transperineal). Using focused high energy and heating tumor cells to several degrees above normal body temperature may kill them without affecting the surrounding tissue. Using multiparametric (mp)MRI/US to create a 3-dimensional picture of the tumor may help in planning and preventing damage to healthy tissue. Giving MRI/US fusion guided transperineal TMA prior to radical prostatectomy may kill tumor cells, and may improve the quality of life in patients with prostate cancer.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of OCS-01 in treating inflammation and pain in subjects following cataract surgery.
This is a pilot open-label study to evaluate the feasibility of conducting a clinical trial using sublingual dexmedetomidine sublingual film to treat hyperadrenergic autonomic crises in patients with Familial Dysautonomia at home. The primary aims are to examine the feasibility of performing a clinical trial using dexmedetomidine at home to terminate autonomic crisis, and refine the interventions and assessments used to evaluate autonomic crisis termination.
While there has been a significant increase in the uptake of antiretroviral therapy among women living with HIV (WLHIV) in many low- and-middle income countries (LMICs), the coverage of cervical cancer screening and treatment (CCST) among WLHIV remains low. This study aims to leverage the available infrastructure for HIV care and treatment programs in Nigeria to integrate cervical cancer screening and treatment and conduct a cluster randomized, hybrid type III trial design to assess the comparative effectiveness of a Core set of implementation strategies versus a Core+ (enhanced) set of implementation strategies to implement cervical cancer screening, onsite treatment, referral and referral completion, treatment, and retention in care among WLHIV. The overarching goal is to improve the health and life expectancy of WLHIV with co-occurring cervical cancer.
The risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) is significantly elevated in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Notably, women with CKD commonly experience menstrual disturbances induced by CKD, which may contribute to impaired vascular function and elevated CVD risk. However, most of the literature in nephrology focuses on male patients, and studies on women's vascular health are limited. Establishing effective therapies for improving vascular function and reducing CVD risk in women with CKD is a high research priority of the NIH. Equol contributes to improvement in vascular function, mediated in part by its anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory properties. However, there is no information on the effect of equol on vascular function in women with CKD. The goal of the proposed project is to determine the acute effect (1 hour after ingestion) of oral equol supplementation on vascular function in postmenopausal women with and without CKD.
The goal of this study is to identify an intervention that improves sleep health and consequently metabolic health by examining whether sleep extension or enforced regularity in short sleepers will have beneficial effects on diabetes and obesity risk.
