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.
To evaluate the efficacy of pimavanserin compared with placebo in treatment of agitation and aggression after 12 weeks of treatment
This is a single center pilot study of a non-myeloablative umbilical cord blood transplant for the treatment of a hematological malignancy with a single infusion of T regulatory (Treg) given shortly after UCB transplantation.
The purpose of this study is to learn if using a Entocort (budesonide) to treat diarrhea will be effective and safe for kidney transplant patients, allowing them to continue with MPA medication.
The purpose of this study is to find out more information about patients who have cancer (adenocarcinoma) of the esophagus or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) who have been treated with chemotherapy and radiation but have not had surgery. The study will follow patients for 5 years to monitor for their cancer and to see how the standard medical care affects the daily life of patients.
This study will assess the efficacy of a neuromodulation device for the treatment of episodic migraine headache.
This trial is being performed in two parts: Dose Escalation and Dose Expansion. The primary objective for the Dose Escalation part is to determine the safety and tolerability at different doses of DS-8273a administered in combination with nivolumab and to identify the dose combination for the Dose Expansion cohort in subjects with mismatch repair (MMR)-proficient advanced colorectal cancer. The primary objectives for the Dose Expansion part are: - To further evaluate the safety and tolerability of DS-8273a administered at the selected dose in combination with nivolumab in subjects with MMR-proficient advanced colorectal cancer - To evaluate preliminary anti-tumor activity of DS-8273a plus nivolumab administered at the selected dose in subjects with MMR-proficient advanced colorectal cancer
The aim of this study is to examine the length of ovarian stimulation with the timing of trigger in an IVF cycle and its potential to impact patient outcomes.
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether placing Ologen over the posterior plate of the Ahmed glaucoma drainage device during initial implantation will allow the formation of a thinner capsule, and decrease the incidence and/or the extent of IOP elevation during the postoperative period.
The investigators will longitudinally measure cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR) by functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) in acute (≤3 days from injury), subacute, and chronic phases after TBI as a biomarker of TCVI as compared to healthy controls. CVR will be measured by fNIRS response to hypercapnia. The investigators hypothesize that CVR will be decreased after TBI and that these decreases will correlate with clinical outcomes. Furthermore, the investigators predict that administration of a vasodilatory medication (sildenafil) will augment CVR after TBI.
Methadone has several advantages over standard narcotic medications, especially when considering use after a typically painful surgery such as lumbar fusion. Methadone is low cost, has a long half-life, has a convenient dosing schedule, has excellent oral bioavailability, and demonstrates slow onset to withdrawal. The literature comparing methadone to more commonly used post-operative narcotics demonstrates that it manages pain better, sustains consistent plasma concentrations, decreases overall narcotic requirement, results in no additional adverse events, and is safe, even in children, across several studies. Since the standard of care is non-methadone narcotic usage to manage the significant pain of complex spinal surgery cases, it is understandable that methadone could be a desirable alternative to promote sustained pain control and early ambulation in these patients. The goal of this study is to compare the effect of a single dose of methadone administered intraoperatively in enrolled spinal fusion patients to their historical controls given fentanyl and morphine, and determine if more sustained pain control during the first few days after surgery provides a better subjective experience for the patient with less pain, which allows them to ambulate and leave the hospital sooner than patients given a standard regimen.
