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 clinical investigation to measure the changes in the oral environment resulting from a 3 month exposure to an arginine containing toothpaste. This study is a double blind, randomized controlled, parallel design. Seventy (70) male and female subjects who meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria will be enrolled in the study. Following oral health evaluations, subjects will be assigned to the treatment schedule and receive their assigned study product.
A randomized trial of remote blood pressure monitoring, compared to usual care, in patients receiving bevacizumab to determine whether remote blood pressure monitoring improves the collection of blood pressure data, identification and management of clinically significant hypertension, and patient satisfaction.
Genes contain genetic code which tell the body which proteins to make. Some types of cancer are caused by changes, or mutations, in a gene called KRAS. Researchers are looking for ways to stop the actions of abnormal proteins made from the mutated KRAS gene. The so-called G12D mutation in the KRAS gene is common in people with some solid tumors. ASP4396 is being developed as a potential new treatment for solid tumors in people who have the G12D mutation in their KRAS gene. ASP4396 is not currently available as a treatment for the public. In this study, researchers will learn how ASP4396 is processed by and acts upon the body. This information will help find a suitable dose and to check for potential medical problems from ASP4396. In this study, ASP4396 is being given to humans for the first time. People in this study will be adults with locally advanced (unresectable), or metastatic solid tumors with the G12D mutation in their KRAS gene. Locally advanced means the cancer has spread to nearby tissue. Unresectable means the cancer cannot be removed by surgery. Metastatic means the cancer has spread to other parts of the body. They may have been previously treated with standard therapies or refused to receive those treatments. The main aims of the study are to check the safety of ASP4396, how well people cope with medical problems during the study (how well it is tolerated), and to find a suitable dose of ASP4396. This is an open-label study. This means that people in this study and clinic staff will know that they will receive ASP4396. This study will be in 2 parts. Part 1 is called Dose Escalation. Different small groups of people will receive lower to higher doses of ASP4396. For each dose, all medical problems will be recorded. The first group will receive the lowest dose of ASP4396. A medical expert panel will check the results and decide if the next group can receive a higher dose of ASP4396. The panel will do this until all groups have taken ASP4396 or until suitable doses have been selected for Part 2. Part 2 is called Dose Expansion. Other different small groups of people will receive ASP4396 with the most suitable doses worked out from Part 1. This will help find a more accurate dose of ASP4396 to use in future studies. In both parts of the study, ASP4396 will be given through a vein. This is called an infusion. Each treatment cycle is 21 days long. People will continue treatment until: they have medical problems from the treatment they can't cope with (can't tolerate); their cancer gets worse; they start other cancer treatment; or they ask to stop treatment. People will visit the clinic on certain days during their treatment, with extra visits during the first 2 cycles of treatment. The study doctors will check for any medical problems from ASP4396. Also, people in the study will have a health check including blood tests. On some visits they will also have scans to check for any changes in their cancer. Tumor samples will be taken at certain visits during treatment with the option of a tumor sample being taken after treatment has finished. People will visit the clinic about 7 days after they stop treatment. They will be asked about any medical problems and will have a health check including blood tests. After this, people will visit the clinic for a health check several times. The number of visits and checks done at each visit will depend on the health of each person and whether they completed their treatment or not. After treatment has finished, people in the study will be followed up for up to 45 weeks.
In situations where intravenous access is not readily available or is unobtainable and the intranasal route is not feasible, another non-invasive route of ketamine administration, such as inhalation via breath-actuated Nebulizer (BAN), is becoming a viable alternative. The BAN allows the controlled, patient-initiated delivery of analgesics in a measured and titratable fashion. (18) Ketamine has been studied as a nebulized drug in a lot of different settings and for a lot of different reasons, such as to treat acute pain after surgery (like a sore throat after being intubated), as a pre-medication for general anesthesia, to treat cancer pain, and as a therapy for asthmaticus. Our research team has published two case series of 10 adult patients who were given nebulized ketamine (via BAN) for a variety of acute traumatic and non-traumatic painful conditions. The patients showed a 60% decrease in pain and a small number of side effects. Furthermore, our group published a randomized, double-blind trial of 120 adult patients evaluating the analgesic efficacy and safety of nebulized ketamine at three different dosing regimens for acute pain in the ED (0.75 mg/kg, 1 mg/kg, and 1.5 mg/kg), showing similar analgesic efficacy between the three different dosing regimens for short-term (up to 120 minutes) pain relief. Lastly, we recently completed a randomized, double-blind, double-dummy clinical trial comparing the analgesic efficacy and safety of nebulized ketamine and intravenous ketamine in managing acute pain in adult ED patients, with data currently being analyzed. Nebulized fentanyl given in the ED to adults with acute traumatic and non-traumatic pain syndromes at a dose range of 1.5-4 mcg/kg showed the same or even better pain-relieving effects than IV fentanyl and IV morphine alone. Our objective is to compare the analgesic efficacy and rates of side effects of a 0.75 mg/kg dose of ketamine administered via breath-actuated nebulizer (BAN) to a dose of 3 mcg/kg of fentanyl administered via breath-actuated nebulizer (BAN) in adult patients presenting to the ED with acute painful conditions.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the benefits of beat-accented music stimulation (BMS) for behavioral changes of physical activity (PA) in older adults. Specific Aims are to determine (1) whether BMS beneficially influences PA behaviors and psychological responses to PA in older adults for 6 months, and (2) whether exercising with BMS differently influences physical and cognitive functioning as well as quality of life in older adults. To test the effects of BMS on PA, participants will be randomly assigned to an exercise intervention that either includes BMS or does not include BMS. Participants will attend a supervised group strength training (ST) (30 min/day) and aerobic exercise (AE) (30-50 min/day) session for 3 days/week for the first 2 months, 1 day/week for the next 2 months (while encouraging participants to independently perform both AE and ST on other days), and independently for the final 2 months (always with a goal of performing >150min/week AE and 3 days/week of ST for 30 min/day.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test use of losartan in those with cystic fibrosis (CF) on modulator therapy. The main question it aims to answer is if treatment with losartan improves response of the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) channel to modulator therapy. Participants will be asked take losartan or placebo for twelve weeks and will have changes in sweat chloride levels measured as a marker of CFTR function.
Title: ERG as a potential biomarker of SSRI-responsive PTSD: A pilot study Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) affects many individuals who experience a traumatic event. Previous studies suggest that there is a connection between the brain and the retina, and that the electroretinogram (ERG) may be a valuable biomarker to tell us more about signals in the brain that are related to mental health disorders like PTSD. The goal of this observational study is to examine the ERG waveform in veterans with PTSD before and after a single dose of the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), sertraline. Sertraline is one of two FDA-approved medications for the treatment of PTSD. The main questions this pilot study aims to answer are: 1. How does sertraline, an SSRI, influence the ERG waveform in veterans with PTSD? 2. Is there a significant correlation between baseline ERG signals and the change in ERG following SSRI treatment? Participants will be asked to: - Undergo ERG recordings before and after a single dose of sertraline. - Provide relevant clinical information related to PTSD symptoms and treatment history. Following the initial study visits, participants will enter an optional open label phase of the study in which qualifying participants who initiate antidepressant treatment through routine clinical care will be invited back for a follow-up ERG recording.
The investigators are studying the accuracy of Dexcom G6 continuous glucose monitors placed on babies with hyperinsulinism in the Miller Children's Hospital Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. The participants will wear the device for 10 days on their lateral thigh. Whenever blood sugars are checked by glucometer, the investigators will also record the continuous glucose monitor sugar. Additionally, if the continuous glucose monitor alarms for a low sugar or an impending low sugar, the investigators will check the blood sugar by glucometer and, if verified to be low, treat the low blood sugar accordingly.
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of a commercially-available oil rinse product (PerioPull™) on parameters of dental health among a sample of adults. PerioPull™ is commercially available and sold primarily from clinicians' offices. A 12-week pilot study will be conducted to achieve the purpose of this study. The research team hypothesizes that PerioPull™ will improve a variety of validated markers of dental health that are commonly used in clinical practice.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the drug-drug interaction (DDI) potential of coadministration of itraconazole or rifampin on the single dose drug levels of golcadomide.
