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 is a Phase I trial to test the safety and feasibility of OncoImmunome vaccine in stage III/IV ovarian cancer patients. OncoImmunome is a tumor specific vaccine formulation which is predicted to elicit tumor-protective immune responses. A total of 15 patients will be enrolled from the Principal Investigator (PI) clinical practice. These patients will have just successfully completed standard of care surgical debulking with preservation of fresh tumor, chemotherapy treatment and be in documented clinical remission prior to receiving the vaccine. The patients receive 6-monthly doses of the vaccine and are monitored for up to 5 years post vaccination. This is a personalized vaccine, unique to each patient and is the "first in human" use.
Opioid analgesics are the most common postoperative pain medications used among dentists in the United States.Although these medications are highly effective in the postoperative dental pain management, not all patients optimally benefit from this therapy. Many suffer adverse consequences such as nausea, emesis, and psychomotor impairment, and there is a high prevalence of opioid prescription misuse among substance abusers within the dental patient population. The use of non-opioid analgesics including ibuprofen and acetaminophen in the management of postoperative dental pain has demonstrated equivalent or superior analgesic effects compared to opioid analgesic therapies, typically with significantly less adverse effects.However, despite these results, dentists have encountered a high variability in the success of non-opioid analgesic responses among the postoperative dental pain population.Thus, new strategies for earlier recognition of analgesic responses for pain medications is fundamental in the field of dentistry. Therefore, this study will evaluate the clinical utility of pharmacogenomic testing in acute postoperative dental pain management among healthy adults who undergo extraction of impacted mandibular third molar.
Purpose: The objective of this proposal is to study the safety and efficacy of metformin added to insulin for treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) among pregnant women. Participants: 950 pregnant women with type 2 diabetes complicating pregnancy from 10 U.S. clinical centers Procedures (methods): Pregnant women with T2DM between 10 weeks and 22 weeks 6 days and a singleton fetus will be randomized to double-blinded insulin/placebo versus insulin/metformin. Primary outcome is composite adverse neonatal outcome (clinically relevant hypoglycemia, birth trauma, hyperbilirubinemia, stillbirth/neonatal death). Study visits monthly at clinical visits; blood draw at 24-30 weeks, newborn anthropometric measurements at less than 72 hours of life. Maternal and infant outcomes will be chart abstracted.
The objectives of this study are to illustrate the clinical, neuro/electrophysiologic, biochemical, and developmental status and progression of patients with Creatine Transporter Deficiency (CTD) and to evaluate the utility of performance-based and other measures in the CTD population.
The purpose of this study is to determine the glycemic index of commonly consumed sweeteners.
The objectives of this study are as follows: In participants with primary Type I or II achalasia, following a single 5-mg dose of olinciguat (IW-1701), - To assess the safety and tolerability - To determine the effects on measures of esophageal function by high-resolution impedance manometry (HRIM) - To determine the pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters
The purpose of this study is to see if the study drug metformin will help patients who are overweight and have atrial fibrillation. This study aims to see if metformin helps patients stay in normal sinus rhythm after a catheter ablation. Metformin is investigational for use in patients with atrial fibrillation. Metformin is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in patients with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Metformin is used with a proper diet and exercise program to control high blood sugar, and has been shown to help people lose weight. This study aims to look at the effects of metformin on weight loss and heart rhythm in patients with atrial fibrillation.
This clinical trial is a Phase 1, open-label, sequential-group, dose-escalation (Part 1) and cohort-expansion study (Part 2) evaluating the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and antitumor activity of intravenously (IV) administered CBL0137 in participants with previously treated hematological malignancies.
It is estimated that epistaxis results in 4.5 million emergency department visits per year throughout the United States. Due to the adverse effects of standard treatment options for epistaxis, tranexamic acid (TXA) may be considered an attractive option. In previous studies, when used with nasal packing, TXA showed faster time to control of bleeding. The goal of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of topical intranasal TXA applied via atomizer for patients with epistaxis who present to the emergency department.
Injury to the knee during sports participation often involves partial or full detachment of the anterior cruciate ligament (abbreviated as ACL). ACL tears cause pain, swelling and inflammation. While the swelling and inflammation usually goes away in time, individuals with ACL injuries may experience pain and notice knee instability (knee slipping, etc.). Often surgery can repair or replace the ACL within the joint, allowing individuals the ability to walk or run again pain free or participate in sports. Unfortunately, osteoarthritis of the knee, which also causes pain and swelling, can occur in that same knee 10-20 years later for reasons which are not well understood. In this research study, the investigator hopes to reduce the initial pre-operative pain. The reduction of pain will allow for earlier movement of the knee joint and preparation for surgery. The investigator is interested to see if the use of Kineret does decrease the risk of developing arthritis in individuals with ACL injuries by treating them within 28 days after their injury.
