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.
1. Examine the use of low level therapeutic laser (LLLT) combined with physical therapy for improvements in pain, range of motion, and function in individuals with chronic pain from musculoskeletal conditions. 2. Compare changes in pain, mobility, and ability to return to home/work/recreational activities between treatments with standard physical therapy plus LLLT or the standard physical therapy program alone.
This prospective, single-arm clinical multicenter study intends to measure normal structural parameters of the optic nerve head, the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer, and the macula using the Heidelberg Spectralis OCT device. This study is conducted in Hispanic descent volunteers. The main goal of the study is to provide the range of these structural parameters in normal eyes. The study will include at least 240 normal volunteers.
This prospective, single-arm clinical multicenter study intends to measure normal structural parameters of the optic nerve head, the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer, and the macula using the Heidelberg Spectralis OCT device. This study is conducted in African-American descent volunteers. The main goal of the study is to provide the range of these structural parameters in normal eyes.
The purpose of the study is to investigate the safety of the investigational drug called dimethylfumarate (DMF). DMF is a type of drug called an immunomodulatory drug. This drug is approved by the United States (U.S.) Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as a treatment for patient with multiple sclerosis. Although there is evidence from tests on laboratory animals that DMF can decrease the number of CLL cells, we do not know if this will work in humans with CLL. This drug will be given to humans with CLL for the first time in this study. Therefore, the goal of this study is to see if DMF is safe and tolerable in study participants. Participants will be evaluated to find out what effects (good and bad) DMF has on the body and see how long the drug stays in the body.
The purpose of this pilot study is to gain initial insights into the biologic and clinical effects of Atezolizumab in patients with Asymptomatic Multiple Myeloma (AMM). The data may provide novel insights into anti-PDL-1-induced immunologic changes, which could potentially be relevant to its future development in Multiple Myeloma (MM) and other indications.
The purpose of this research study is to determine the role of blood vessel endothelial function in heart failure and the effect of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) on heart and endothelial function.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the study drug known as lanabecestat in participants with mild Alzheimer's disease (AD) dementia.
This pilot clinical trial studies how well an iPad-based cognitive rehabilitation program works in improving quality of life in patients with grade II-III glioma. An iPad-based cognitive rehabilitation program may help to increase patients cognitive function and quality of life, and may provide doctors with valuable information for optimizing care of patients with brain tumors.
In this study, the investigators aim to determine whether non-invasive autonomic modulation decreases inflammation and complications after thoracic surgery. The investigators will test the hypothesis that low-level transcutaneous vagal nerve stimulation (LLVNS) during major thoracic surgery reduces inflammation and complications, particularly postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF). This will be a prospective randomized pilot trial of 200 patients undergoing major thoracic surgery including lobectomy, bilobectomy, or pneumonectomy via either video-assisted thoracoscopic (VAT) or open thoracotomy. Patients will be randomized to receive ether a) LLVNS (n=100) or b) sham LLVNS (n=100) during their procedure. All patients will receive standardized anesthetic, surgical, and post-surgical care. The primary outcome in this study will be time to occurrence of in-hospital POAF, which will be compared between groups using Cox proportional hazards models. Secondary outcomes will be ICU and hospital length of stay, postoperative morbidity, postoperative mortality, and serologic markers of inflammation.
The specific aims of this study are: 1. To determine the safety and feasibility of treating patients with a combination of MRI guided stereotactic body radiation therapy and microwave ablation. 2. To assess short and long-term toxicity rates of patients treated with a combined modality approach. 3. To assess local control, survival, and pathologic response to treatment
