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.
A study to determine the concordance of key actionable genomic alterations as assessed in tumor tissue and plasma from patients with non small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC)
Patients with HFpEF suffer from exercise intolerance, increased risk for hospitalization and mortality, and poor QOL. Unlike patients with HFrEF, no drug or device therapies appear to be consistently beneficial in treating these problems. However, increasing evidence suggests that exercise training is effective for both partially reversing exercise intolerance and improving quality of life in these patients. Most such trials to date have been conducted in controlled research setting, versus integrating these patients in to a standard CR program. Also, since functional capacity is related to outcomes in these patients, exercise strategies aimed at further improving fitness are warranted. One such strategy is using higher intensity interval training (HIIT) in the CR setting, a strategy shown to be effective in patients with other types of CVD. This project is designed to test the feasibility of incorporating these patients into the CR setting, and training them using a methodology (i.e., HIIT) already shown to yield (in other patients with CVD) greater gains in fitness when compared to what was achieved using standard MCT alone.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of non-dissecting the inferior rectus sheath during primary cesarean delivery on post-operative hemoglobin and post-operative pain control as measured by VAS score and opioid anesthesia use in the first 72 hours post-op.
This prospective, two-site, two-arm, randomized, single-blind, placebo-controlled trial will examine the safety and pharmacokinetics (PK) of a polyurethane tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) vaginal ring when used continuously for 84 consecutive days by sexually active women. The primary objective is to assess the safety of TDF vaginal rings when used continuously for 84 days by healthy, HIV-uninfected, sexually active women, as compared with a placebo vaginal ring.
Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is the most common procedure performed by cardiac surgeons. Post-operative atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common adverse event following CABG, experienced in 20-50% of patients; the highest incidence of AF occurs by the third post-operative day. Reduction of AF by various drugs is moderately effective, but involves either rate control with beta blockers or rate conversion with amiodarone after the myocardial damage processes initiating AF have already occurred. Decreasing the incidence of post-operative AF, and hence the morbidity and mortality of high-risk CABG patients, could be more fruitfully approached by targeting the upstream combined processes of inflammation and coagulation activation induced by the surgical insult and associated ischemia-reperfusion (I/R). We propose that cell damage induced by oxidative stress and I/R injury could be prevented and/or inhibited by antioxidant supplementation. Specifically the investigators hypothesize that high-dose intravenous (IV) vitamin C supplementation will ameliorate ROS and therefore damp down upstream inflammatory processes, leading to a reduction of downstream adverse events with demonstrable links to inflammation processes, such as AF.
This randomized phase III trial studies how well transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) works compared to stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) or stereotactic ablative radiation therapy (SABR) in patients with liver cancer that remain after attempts to remove the cancer have been made (residual) or has come back (recurrent). TACE is a minimally invasive, image-guided treatment procedure that uses a catheter to deliver both chemotherapy medication and embolization materials into the blood vessels that lead to the tumors. SBRT or SABR may be able to send radiation directly to the tumor and cause less damage to normal liver tissue. It is not yet known whether TACE is more effective than SBRT or SABR in treating patients with persistent or recurrent liver cancer who have undergone initial TACE.
This study is being conducted to assess the safety and effectiveness of photochemically induced collagen cross- linking (CCL) at irradiance of 18mW/cm2 in eyes with Keratoconus and Ecstasia.
Observational study of axial spine pain and hyperflexibility. Patients will receive physical exam maneuvers (traditional straight leg raise, FABER, facet loading as well as Beighton's hypermobility score) and blood / urine / saliva collection. They will also be separated into pain groups based on their response to injections. A correlation between exam findings and procedure group will be measured.
The primary objectives of this study are: Part 1 - Vevorisertib as single agent: To assess the safety and tolerability of vevorisertib in participants with advanced solid tumors with v-Akt murine thymoma viral oncogene homolog (AKT) 1, 2, 3 genetic alterations, activating phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K) mutations, phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome ten (PTEN)-null, or other known actionable PTEN mutations; Part 2 - Vevorisertib in combination with other anti-cancer agents: To assess the safety and tolerability of vevorisertib in combination with paclitaxel or fulvestrant in participants with advanced, inoperable, metastatic and/or recurrent solid tumors with phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase catalytic subunit alpha (PIK3CA) / PTEN actionable mutations and/or AKT genetic alterations.
