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.
Toxicities related to pediatric cancer treatment can lead to significant illness, organ damage, treatment delays, increased health care cost, and decrease in quality of life. Such toxicities are largely due to tissue damage sustained by chemotherapy, and strategies designed to limit such cellular damage to normal tissues may reduce therapy-related morbidity and mortality. In addition to their in vitro and in vivo anti-cancer effects, naturally occurring soy isoflavones have anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant properties, and have been shown to reduce side effects of therapy in adult oncology clinical trials. This study will examine the effect of genistein, the major isoflavone component in soybeans and the most extensively studied of the soy isoflavones, on short-term side effects of myelosuppressive chemotherapy in pediatric cancer patients. Subjects will be randomized to receive either: a) 30 mg genistein daily throughout chemotherapy Cycles 1 and 2 and placebo during chemotherapy Cycles 3 and 4; or b) placebo daily during chemotherapy Cycles 1 and 2 and 30 mg genistein daily during chemotherapy Cycles 3 and 4. Investigators hypothesize that subjects will have fewer short-term therapy-related side effects during cycles of chemotherapy given in conjunction with genistein supplementation than cycles given with placebo.
Pilot open-label study to estimate the feasibility, safety and efficacy of intravenously administered, RNA electroporated autologous T cells expressing CD19 chimeric antigen receptors expressing tandem TCRζ and 4-1BB (TCRζ /4-1BB) costimulatory domains (referred to as "RNA CART19") in Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL) patients. Subjects will be treated with IV administration of RNA anti-CD19 CAR T cells for a total of six doses over 3 weeks.
The goal of this clinical research study is to compare indwelling pleural catheters (IPC) in combination with saline (the current standard of care) versus IPC in combination with doxycycline as treatment for pleural effusions.
Pilot open-label study to estimate the feasibility, safety and efficacy of intravenously administered, RNA electroporated autologous T cells expressing anti-CD123 chimeric antigen receptors expressing tandem TCR and 4-1BB (TCR /4-1BB) costimulatory domains (referred to as RNA CART123) in Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) subjects.
A phase 4 unequal randomization, double blind study to evaluate the dose tolerance and safety of extended release Equetro (carbamazepine) versus placebo followed by an Open label and long term maintenance treatment in children and adolescents aged 10-17 years diagnosed with acute manic or mixed Bipolar I Disorder
To answer the question: "Do Prontosan instillations decrease time to wound and fracture healing and decrease bacterial load compared to wound vac treatment without Prontosan?," we will enroll up to 30 subjects (for an anticipated 20 complete data sets) into this trial. The subjects will be split equally into two different groups by randomization. One groups will have wound vac therapy with Prontosan, and one group will have wound vac therapy without Prontosan. Data related to wound and fracture healing and bacterial load will be assessed between the two groups to determine if wound vac therapy with Prontosan speeds up healing time and decreases bacterial load.
Methods: Double blinded, randomized controlled trial with 1:1 allocation of mifepristone or placebo at initiation of induction of labor for fetal demise 20 weeks estimated gestational age or greater. Hypothesis: Mifepristone will expedite time to delivery of fetus among demise patients, when compared to placebo, and in conjunction with other pharmacologic methods for induction of labor. Expected outcomes: The addition of a progesterone receptor modulator will expedite time to delivery of the fetus and ultimately improve the experience associated with induction of labor for fetal demise.
This phase Ib trial studies the best dose and side effects of alpelisib and cisplatin in treating patients with human papillomavirus (HPV) positive solid tumor malignancies. Alpelisib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving alpelisib and cisplatin may work better in treating patients with solid tumor malignancies.
The investigators will conduct a prospective, blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled trial with a sample size of 20 patients in each of the two arms (fenoldopam vs placebo) based upon a difference in serum creatinine by one standard deviation. Fluid and salt intake will be held constant within clinical parameters and carefully measured. Fenoldopam will be started at 0.1 ug/kg/min. If, after 6 hrs there is no decrease in blood pressure, the dose will be increased to 0.2 ug/kg/min. This dose will be continued throughout the remainder of the study. A study of pediatric patients previously provided to the FDA showed no hypotension at a dose of 0.2 ug/kg/min. Fenoldopam will be started 12 hrs before the first dose of indomethacin and discontinued 12 hrs after the 3rd dose of indomethacin. Study samples will include both blood and urine. The primary outcome will be a reduction in renal dysfunction, as determined by creatinine and urine output over the course of treatment. Additional outcomes will include determination of known and novel metabolomic urine markers of renal dysfunction.
The primary objective of the study is to determine efficacy of metolazone as synergistic therapy with Lasix in patients with acute decompensated heart failure. This will be a single center double blinded randomized placebo- controlled pilot study of the addition of 5 mg of metolazone per day for 2 days compared to placebo in patients admitted with acute decompensated heart failure.
