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.
The primary aim of this study is to examine the effect of applying a minimal contact technology-based intervention (TECH) at 1-year post-bariatric surgery on weight change compared to Standard Care. Forty participants at 1-year post bariatric surgery will be randomized to TECH or Standard Care for a period of 6 months (12 to 18 months post-surgery). Analyses will be conducted to compare these interventions for differences in body weight, body composition, fitness, physical activity, engagement, psychosocial measures, and intervention cost and cost-effectiveness of each approach. TECH will consist of a wearable monitor that provides feedback on energy expenditure and physical activity, electronic tracking of dietary intake, and integration of an electronic scale to provide comprehensive feedback to the participant on all components of weight management. TECH participants will receive a monthly telephone call from the intervention staff to provide guidance on their weight management efforts.
This is an open label, phase I/II, dose-escalation study in the initial phase I followed by a phase II. The primary objective of the phase I is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and dose limiting toxicity (DLT) of the combinations of TGR-1202 and carfilzomib in participants with relapsed and refractory (R/R) non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) and Hodgkin lymphoma (HL). The safety and toxicity of this combination will be evaluated throughout the entire study. If the combination of TGR-1202 and carfilzomib is found to be feasible and an MTD is established, the phase II part of the study will be initiated. Phase II will consist of a 2-stage design of the combination of TGR-1202 and carfilzomib for participants with R/R NHL.
This study will evaluate the correlation between invasively measured parameters (work of breathing/power of breathing, resistance and elastance), derived using esophageal pressure measurements, and their corresponding non-invasive estimated values (noninvasive work of breathing/power of breathing, resistance and elastance), computed using airway pressure and flow measurements only.
This single-center, prospective, randomized clinical trial is designed to compare the clinical characteristics and outcomes of hepatic resection and microwave ablation (MWA) to determine the optimal operative intervention for the local treatment of resectable colorectal cancer liver metastases. The primary aim of this study is to test the following hypothesis: 2-year local disease control is equivalent between patients receiving the experimental therapy (MWA) and patients receiving the standard therapy (hepatic resection) as treatment for colorectal cancer liver metastases determined to be resectable by radiographic imaging. Secondarily, the investigators expect that 2-year intrahepatic (regional) and metastatic disease recurrence rates are equivalent between the two treatment arms in this study.
This is a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial of serratus plane blocks in subjects undergoing outpatient unilateral or bilateral breast surgery. Ninety subjects will be enrolled into the study at presurgical testing. Subjects will be stratified based on surgery type and randomized to receive a serratus plane block with either bupivicaine HCL or placebo. All patients will receive standard intraoperative anesthesia and standard postoperative pain control. The primary endpoint is the amount of opioid administered postoperatively. Secondary endpoints include postoperative pain intensity at timed intervals, amount of opioid administered intraoperatively and postoperatively, incidence of nausea and vomiting, time to discharge and patient satisfaction
This is a Phase 2b double-blind, randomized, parallel-group, placebo-controlled study of MLE4901 versus placebo in women with PCOS.
Ureteroscopy is a common procedure in Urology that patients undergo daily to deal with a variety of ailments. These procedures often require that the bladder be filled and emptied with sterile water or saline several times during the procedure, and often result in the patient receiving a catheter at the end of the procedure. One common side effect is that patients experience bladder spasm or discomfort for a period of time after these procedures. Belladonna and Opium (B and O) suppositories and PO Oxybutynin are often given in the post-operative setting to relieve these symptoms. The principle objectives of this study are: 1. To determine if the addition of a B and O supprette suppository at the end of cystoscopic/ureteroscopic procedures reduces the incidence of bladder spasms and urinary discomfort that patients experience in the post-operative setting. 2. To determine if using peri-operative B and O supprette suppositories reduces the need for pos-operative oral Ditropan and use of narcotic pain medications.
The objective of this clinical study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of NTRA-9620 compared with placebo in pediatric subjects (aged 28 weeks postmenstrual age to 52 weeks old) with SBS following surgical resection
The primary objective of Part 1 of the study is to determine if BIIB093 improves functional outcome at Day 90 as measured by the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) when compared with placebo in participants with Large Hemispheric Infarction (LHI). The secondary objectives of Part 1 of the study are to determine if BIIB093 improves overall survival at Day 90 when compared with placebo, if BIIB093 improves functional outcome at Day 90 on the mRS dichotomized 0-4 vs. 5-6 when compared with placebo, if BIIB093 reduces midline shift at 72 hours (or at time of decompressive craniectomy [DC] or comfort measures only [CMO], if earlier) when compared with placebo, and to evaluate the safety and tolerability of BIIB093 in participants with LHI. The objectives of Part 2 of the study are to evaluate long-term disability following LHI, to evaluate long-term outcome measures of clinical function, quality of life, and healthcare utilization, and to assess the safety of BIIB093 in subjects with LHI during the follow-up period.
The study aim is to determine if periodic online cognitive exercises (Lumosity) improve memory function in ruptured cerebral aneurysm patients with disabling baseline memory deficits within the first 24 months after rupture. Half of the subjects will be randomized to use Lumosity-designed online cognitive exercises and half will serve as an active control group performing online crossword puzzles.
