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.
Open label, nonrandomized, dose-escalation with cohort expansion study of MVT-5873/MVT-1075 in subjects with previously treated, Carbohydrate Antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) positive malignancies (e.g., pancreatic adenocarcinoma).
Urinary [Foley] catheters [tubes] are commonly placed in patients undergoing surgery; approximately 25% of surgical patients will receive one. Among patients who receive urinary catheters, discomfort associated with the Foley catheter is common; between 47-90% of patients experience catheter related bladder discomfort [CRBD]. Presence of a foreign object in the bladder even for short periods of time may result in symptoms such as a burning sensation, pain in the lower abdomen, muscle spasms and a sense of urgency to urinate. There is some evidence that suggests that hospital-acquired urinary tract infections are directly related to catheter placement, which causes mechanical damage and local inflammation to the urethra and the bladder. Based on research conducted on a similar mechanism where an airway tube is inserted into a patients throat for delivery of general anesthesia - we hypothesize that CRBD is related to injury and inflammation caused by the catheter placement and that this occurs in a sterile environment.
This study will compare subjects with a history of pelvic or menstrual pain diagnosed with endometriosis treated at Clear Passage with untreated control subjects. The treatment group will be a retrospective chart review; the control subject group will be a prospective questionnaire based study. The study will assess the changes in pain experienced by subjects treated with manual therapy at Clear Passage to untreated subjects with endometriosis.
The use of lidocaine, as an anesthetic drug, during implantation of an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator(ICD)will not result in a clinically significant alteration of the defibrillation threshold during ICD placement.
M3814 is an investigational drug under evaluation for treatment of lung cancer. The purpose of the study was to assess the Safety and Efficacy of M3814 in combination with chemotherapy with SCLC ED.
Both, CT scans and VQ scans, are used by doctors to look for pulmonary embolism. The most common reason to order a VQ scan is to avoid the IV dye. The IV dye used for CT scans can cause kidney problems in some patients, called contrast-induced nephropathy or "CIN." This is a kidney problem that usually does not make patients feel any differently or change how they urinate. Most of the time, it can only be found by testing blood several days later. This kind of kidney problem can be very mild and some patients will never have any symptoms, rarely these problems can be severe. Some patients can also have similar kidney problems for many other reasons (reactions to medications, blood pressure problems, etc.) and can even happen in patients that do not get IV dye. That is why doctors are not sure exactly who will have these problems or if using a test that does not use IV dye can prevent this kidney problem. The VQ scan uses a different medication through the IV that is not IV dye and has not been linked to kidney problems. The purpose of this study is to learn if using the test that does not use IV dye (the "VQ scan") instead of a CT scan in some patients can help to prevent kidney problems.
This will be a randomization of two groups of obese pregnant women into early screening for diabetes mellitus at the time of their first or subsequent prenatal visits before 20 weeks of gestation versus standard time of screening for diabetes at 24 - 28 weeks as it is done for all pregnant women. The perinatal outcomes between the two groups will be compared to determine whether early screening for diabetes in all obese pregnant women has a clinical merit or significant.
The trial is open to patients who have metastatic renal cell carcinoma/urothelial (bladder) carcinoma with at least 2 measurable sites of disease. All eligible patients will be randomly assigned to immunotherapy(nivolumab/atezolizumab/pembrolizumab) versus immunotherapy (nivolumab/atezolizumab/pembrolizumab) plus radiotherapy, 10 Gy x3 (conformally or by intensity modulation radiation therapy/Image-guided radiation therapy (IMRT/IGRT) to maximally spare normal tissue), to one of their measurable lesions.
This randomized, controlled, phase II clinical study is designed to assess the efficacy of preemptive treatment with topical steroids in preventing the papulopustular eruption induced by epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitor (EGFRI) treatment in cancer patients. Participants will be followed up for 6 weeks of twice daily application of triamcinolone cream to the face, chest, and back.
There is a need to compare the efficacy of PVI versus PVI plus catheter ablation, which includes ablation of complex fractionated atrial electrograms (CFAE) and linear lesions in the same procedure. If it is found that the PVI alone is as effective as PVI plus catheter ablation of CFAE and linear lesions, it may reduce the need for catheter ablation.
