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 prospective one group cohort study seeks to investigate the effects of sacral neuromodulation on urinary urgency, frequency and urge incontinence are maintained after the simulator device is temporarily turned off for a period of four weeks.
The field of genomics is an exciting new field being applied in medicine. Its use in treating some cancers, sepsis and burn patients has been very promising. As knowledge of genomics and application of microarrays expands, researchers are developing more intelligent ways to provide individualized care for patients. The plan of this research study is to apply the use of genomics as a tool for transplant in several capacities. This research study is designed to develop methods of isolating relevant cell types via microarray plates, then extracting mRNA samples of those cell types and capturing their genetic profile. This will be done with the blood of up to ten healthy donors. Once this ability has been demonstrated, the next step will be to use these testing in several capacities in transplant patients. The research study plan involves following the genetic profile of 26 kidney transplant patients. One group will be followed prospectively starting at baseline, and then at various set time points. A second group will be sampled with the occurrence of clinical events. These events include viral, bacterial, and fungal infection, WBC < 2.5 or biopsy proven rejection episodes or normal graft function. Thus, the intention of the study is to demonstrate how immunosuppression alters the expression of this genetic expression of these T cells. In doing so, the study will provide a better understanding of the specific and true immunosuppressed state for any given patient.
The overall goal of this study is to examine how regular exercise affects brain function, spatial memory, and virtual navigation. Participation in this research study will take approximately 4 months.
The purpose of this observational follow-up study is to collect data systematically on pregnancies and offspring of women who become pregnant while participating in a Certolizumab Pegol (CZP) study or whose pregnancies have otherwise been reported to UCB due to potential CZP exposure during pregnancy.
The purpose of this study is to compare two different ways of placing breathing tubes for surgery. Both ways are used currently to place breathing tubes and are safe and effective. This study seeks to determine if one way is better than the other for infants with pyloric stenosis.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate if the study drug palbociclib has anti-tumor activity against the breast cancer that has spread to the brain and also to determine the overall radiographic response rate in the CNS. Palbociclib is an anti-cancer medication that has been shown to stop cancer cells from growing. It has been approved in hormone positive breast cancer, along with other hormone therapies and has been found to be effective. The preclinical studies suggest that the drug may also have activity in other types of breast cancer, such as HER2 positive breast cancer. The purpose of this study is to see if the study drug is effective in patients with brain metastasis, who have HER2-positive breast cancer.
The aim of this study is to define and evaluate the efficacy of Aquatic Locomotor Training (ALT) compared to overground Locomotor Training in improving ambulatory function and health-related quality of life. The investigators hypothesize, that Aquatic Locomotor Training is capable of producing outcomes that are as good as, or better than, overground Locomotor Training. Aquatic Locomotor Training may be another tool for therapists to utilize for clinical improvements in function and gait for the Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) population. To determine the efficacy of Aquatic Locomotor Training on improving rehabilitation outcomes among patients with incomplete traumatic cervical Spinal Cord Injury by assessing these parameters: 1. Walking speed and endurance 2. Functional balance and fall risk 3. HRQoL To describe the feasibility of conducting Aquatic Locomotor Training as an Locomotor Training modality for the rehabilitation of patients with incomplete traumatic cervical Spinal Cord Injury.
This pilot clinical trial studies the side effects of anti-ESO (cancer/test antigen) murine T-cell receptor (mTCR)-transduced autologous peripheral blood lymphocytes and combination chemotherapy with cyclophosphamide and fludarabine phosphate in treating patients with cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic) and expresses the gene NY-ESO-1. Donor white blood cells that are treated in the laboratory with anti-cluster of differentiation (CD)3 may help treat metastatic cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide and fludarabine phosphate, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more cancer cells. Aldesleukin may stimulate white blood cells, including natural killer cells, to kill metastatic cancer cells. Giving anti-ESO (cancer/test antigen) mTCR-transduced autologous peripheral blood lymphocytes together with combination chemotherapy and aldesleukin may kill more cancer cells.
The primary objective is to determine if intravenous acetaminophen decreases pain scores and the amount of morphine equivalence received as compared to oral acetaminophen in patients greater than 65 years old after sustaining a hip fracture.
The purpose of the first part of this study is to establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of oral ciprofloxacin when given in combination with a fixed dose of oral etoposide in patients with resistant acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The purpose of the second part of this study is to determine if the established dose of oral ciprofloxacin in combination with oral etoposide is effective in the treatment of patients with resistant AML.
