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 prospective, interventional, double-blinded placebo-controlled study of up to 40 participants to evaluate the effect of a botanical formulation on inflammatory biomarkers and epigenetic age.
The purpose of this clinical study is the development of physiologic endpoint of inflammation in pediatric patients diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), specifically subtypes Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). The novel medical device evaluates the patient's sensory response to each of the three sensory nerve fiber types. Data from the device provides an assessment of disease activity and a more precise approach to treatment.
The purpose of this study is to determine if a particular method of providing nutrition improves the outcomes of patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) who have undergone abdominal surgery following trauma and would require nutrition delivered via the bloodstream (called total parenteral nutrition or TPN). The nutrition method being tested is a structured nutrition delivery plan, called the SeND Home pathway, that involves TPN, oral nutrition supplements, and the use of a device (called an indirect calorimeter or IC) to measure calorie needs. Participants will be randomly assigned (like the flip of a coin) to the SeND Home program or standard of care nutrition. In the SeND Home program, participants will receive TPN, followed by oral nutrition supplements (shakes) for 4 weeks after discharge. The control group will follow standard of care nutrition delivery that begins during ICU stay and concludes at hospital discharge. Participants in both groups will undergo non-invasive tests that measure how much energy (calories) they are using, body composition, and muscle mass and complete walking and strength tests, and surveys about quality of life.
The purpose of this research study is to find out how well two different 2023-2024 updated COVID-19 vaccines protect people from COVID-19 (the disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus), and to determine if getting a 2023-2024 updated vaccine provides better protection from COVID-19 than not getting a vaccine. If the participant chooses to get a 2023-2024 updated COVID-19 vaccine as part of this study, they will have a 50/50 chance of receiving either the Novavax or Pfizer mRNA vaccine. If the participant decides not to get a 2023-2024 updated COVID-19 vaccine, the participant can still participate in other study activities. STUDY ACTIVITIES: - An online enrollment survey - An in-person enrollment visit - Weekly online surveys for 20 weeks - Weekly COVID-19 tests for 20 weeks - Additional online surveys if you have COVID-19 symptoms or tested positive for COVID-19. - Additional COVID-19 tests if you have COVID-19 symptoms or tested positive. - Online survey questions in the middle and at the end of the study
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in the US general population. Although CVD mortality rates declined for both Black and White populations during the past two decades, they are still higher in Black adults than White adults. There are also persistent disparities in CVD risk factors with higher prevalence of obesity, hypertension, and diabetes in Black compared to White populations. In addition, CVD and risk factors are more prevalent in the residents of Louisiana compared to the US general population. The Church-based Health Intervention to Eliminate Racial Inequalities in Cardiovascular Health (CHERISH) study will use a church-based community health worker (CHW)-led multifaceted intervention to address racial inequities in CVD risk factors in Black communities in New Orleans, Louisiana. The primary aim of the CHERISH study is to compare the impact of two implementation strategies - a CHW-led multifaceted strategy and a group-based education strategy - for delivering interventions recommended by the 2019 American College of Cardiology (ACC)/American Heart Association (AHA) Guideline on the Primary Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease on implementation and clinical effectiveness outcomes in Black community members over 18 months.
This is a prospective comparative study that will be conducted at one clinical site in the United States, in which subjects who sign an informed consent form and fulfil all inclusion and exclusion criteria, will have OCT scans obtained using the test and the predicate devices. There will be two main types of analyses performed as part of this study, including 1) a precision analysis, and 2) an agreement analysis. The precision analyses will be conducted utilizing all complete complements of acceptable scans from the test devices and predicate device for each of the 3 configurations. A complete complement of acceptable scans can be defined as subjects having 3 acceptable replicate scans on each of the 3 devices, at each of the 3 configurations. This is also synonymous with 3 scans for each of the 3 configurations on all 3 devices. If subjects have more than 3 acceptable scans per configuration on a device, only the first 3 will be considered for analyses. The agreement analysis will be conducted utilizing the first set of acceptable scans from each instrument for all overlapping measurement types (for all measurement types two or more of the devices have in common) related to performance endpoints.
The goal of this interventional clinical trial is to learn about TNG348, a ubiquitin specific peptidase 1 (USP1) inhibitor, alone and in combination with olaparib in patients with BRCA 1/2 mutant or HRD+ solid tumors. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - to evaluate the safety and tolerability of single agent and combination therapy - to determine the recommended dose for Phase 2 of single agent and combination therapy - to determine the pharmacokinetics of TNG348 as a single agent and in combination therapy - to evaluate the initial antineoplastic activity as a single agent and in combination therapy Participants will receive study treatment until they experience an undesirable side effect, their disease progresses or until they withdraw consent.
The COVID-19 pandemic severely impacted the medical system both directly but also through incomplete recovery from the virus in the form of post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 (PASC). PASC affects at least 9.6 million individuals as of May 2022 and continues to affect many more. PASC is a multisystem disorder often presenting with mental fog, dyspnea on exertion, and fatigue among other symptoms. The etiology of PASC is uncertain but theories include direct cytotoxicity, dysregulated immune responses, endotheliitis associated with microthrombi, eNOS uncoupling, and myocardial fibrosis with impaired ventricular compliance. To date, there are no established treatments. Exercise has the potential as a therapeutic option to improve VO2peak and improve each of the aforementioned underlying etiologies. The investigators plan to examine the effect of High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) and Moderate intensity exercise training (MOD) on the symptoms and exercise tolerance of patients with PASC. The investigators approach will consist of a randomized, blinded, 2-arm, parallel-group design. Enrolled subjects will be randomly assigned to one of two groups in a 1:1 allocation ratio. All groups will undergo a 4-week intervention of 3 days of HIIT per week and 2 days of MOD per week or control of light stretching and controlled breathing. Subjects will be assessed before and after the 4-week intervention to examine the extent to which 4 weeks of the HIIT and MOD combination improves VO2peak and left ventricular diastolic function, global longitudinal strain (GLS), and global circumferential strain (GCS). Further, the investigators will explore changes in markers such as heart rate, heart rhythm, blood pressure, quality of life, exercise tolerance, and PASC symptoms as well as blood/serum markers.
The overall objective of this study is to use behavioral economics interventions to increase naloxone acquisition and carrying among participants who attend an opioid overdose reversal training.
The purpose of this study is to test a peer support intervention for caregivers who are caring for a loved one living with dementia.
