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 purpose of this study is to determine if oral of L-citrulline (3 grams/day) for 3 weeks provided in mid-pregnancy to pregnant women with type 2 diabetes will increase the plasma L-arginine/ADMA ratio, lower maternal blood pressure and increase maternal levels of placental growth factor (PlGF).
Stroke survivors with hemiplegia will be evaluated by rehabilitation professionals and asked to perform a battery of assessments to test the viability and usability of a force-feedback robot that adapts to each individual subject's performance. Subsequently, they will be asked to complete post-assessment questionnaires that provide feedback to the researchers on their observations and thoughts about the therapy devices.
This study compared the administration of porcine surfactant (poractant alfa, Curosurf®) through a less invasive method (LISA), using a thin catheter, CHF 6440 (LISACATH®), during non-invasive ventilation (CPAP, NIPPV, BiPAP) with an approved conventional surfactant administration during invasive ventilation followed by rapid extubation in terms of short term and mid-term safety and efficacy in spontaneously breathing preterm neonates who have clinical signs of respiratory distress syndrome (RDS).
This is a multi-centre prospective study in which blood samples will be taken from 1500 male patients aged between 21-80 scheduled for prostate biopsy. Analysis of cell-free cancer DNA extracted from these samples will be undertaken to determine whether copy number instability scores derived from the cfDNA correlates with PSA screening levels and prostate biopsy results (i.e. Gleason score) in these patients.
The purpose of this study is to test experimental human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) vaccines that use an adenovirus vector. The adenovirus vector may help the vaccines stimulate an immune response. Researchers want to see how the immune system will respond to these vaccines as well as if they are safe to give to people. Participants cannot get HIV from these vaccines. However, researchers also want to see if the vaccine's adenovirus is contagious. Adenoviruses cause cold symptoms or mild eye infections, therefore household and intimate contacts will be asked to participate as well.
This study is an open-label Phase 1/2 evaluation of CB-839 in combination with nivolumab in participants with clear cell renal cell carcinoma, melanoma, and non-small cell lung cancer.
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects of laboratory-treated (central memory/naive) cluster of differentiation 8+ T cells (autologous Wilms tumor [WT]1-T cell receptor [TCRc]4 gene-transduced CD8-positive central memory T-cells [TCM]/naive T cells [TN] lymphocytes) and how well it works in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia that is newly diagnosed or has come back. Genetically modified therapies, such as autologous WT1-TCRc4 gene-transduced CD8-positive TCM/TN lymphocytes, are taken from a patient's blood, modified in the laboratory so they specifically may kill cancer cells with a protein called WT1, and safely given back to the patient. The "genetically modified" T-cells have genes added in the laboratory to allow them to recognize leukemia cells that express WT1 and kill them.
The purpose of the present study is to understand the neurobiological mechanisms of action underlying sexual desire building on prior work Dr. Stephanie Cacioppo has done in which desire was not manipulated. In the present project, Dr. Stephanie Cacioppo is manipulating desire through Flibanserin (Addyi) vs. placebo and she will be measuring subjective sexual desire as a manipulation check. The investigators will address this goal using a double-blind randomized outpatient design and determine the pre-post neurobehavioral change in the Flibanserin group and investigate the extent to which Flibanserin normalizes brain activity in premenopausal women with HSDD and the extent to which regional brain activation is associated with changes in symptoms and behavior (as measured with self-report measures of sexual desire and/or eye-tracking movements).
Patient with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) that might have a genetic change (mutation) in the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) are invited to take part in this study. This research study is evaluating a new blood test that is capable of detecting an EGFR mutation in cancer without a biopsy.
The primary aim of this project is to Compare new msCS and standard DSC-PWI methods in GBM patients undergoing post-operative MRI for monitoring of tumor progression.
