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 study objective is to evaluate the efficacy of the WeightWatchers (WW) GLP-1 behavioral program + WW Clinic (formerly known as Sequence medical weight management program) on weight loss and related outcomes. Participants will be invited to take part and answer surveys at 0, 12 and 24 weeks.
Investigators will address the overarching challenge of advancing health equity and reducing disparities in prostate cancer by informing efforts to reduce travel burden in prostate cancer (PCa) treatment access among Black men.
Primary objective: To identify older adults with transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis (ATTR-CA) early in the course of the illness, at a time when disease modifying therapies are most effective. The specific aims of this epidemiologic investigation include: 1. To identify subjects with previous lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) Surgery who have evidence of transthyretin (TTR) amyloid deposits in spinal specimens and could be at risk for ATTR cardiac amyloidosis. 2. To evaluate for ATTR-CA among those with localized TTR in the spinal tissue. The study will also explore the following: 1. The prevalence of amyloid in lumbar spinal stenosis specimens by Congo Red staining. 2. The prevalence of TTR deposits among subjects with amyloid as determined by mass spectrometry. 3. Evaluation of a novel artificial intelligence technique for that can identify amyloid histologically with standard H&E staining. 4. Difference in ATTR-CA prevalence between subjects with TTR and indeterminate amyloid deposits in subject's spine by myocardial uptake of technetium pyrophosphate scan (Tc99-PYP).
This is a multi-site research study with an optional research repository that will consist of clinically derived data and photographic or video images of patients in the home setting with complex health conditions to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the CHAMP® software platform, with data and photographic or video images input and/or uploaded by the parent or other legally authorized representative (LAR) of patients with complex congenital heart disease as a target population.
This study is being done to answer the question: Do STAR particles (tiny pieces of ceramic with small spikes) help numbing gel (a gel that helps you feel less pain) work more quickly to provide local anesthesia or numbing in a specific area? Research participants will provide feedback on how quickly the STAR particles with the numbing gel can provide anesthesia.
This is a conventional efficacy trial to validate the results from previous clinical trials for younger children; the 12-month efficacy results will be used to predict the 3-year treatment efficacy. This is a randomized, controlled (1:1), multisite, subject- and observer-masked, 2-arm parallel group study.
The purpose of this study is to define the mechanisms of cannabis on the genome of people with HIV who use cannabis. The investigator aims to better understand the effect of Dronabinol on immune and inflammatory functions, and whether these changes are HIV-status dependent. This research may better inform public health policy regarding cannabis use. Depending on the results, additional studies may also build upon this research to develop more effective and specific treatments for cannabis use associated disorders.
Current medication adherence interventions are minimally effective, which results in higher rates of morbidity and mortality for 45 million US adults who have hypertension and low adherence. This feasibility randomized controlled trial seeks to understand the efficacy of reminders and monitoring in the form of a mobile phone application vs usual care on medication adherence as well as the feasibility of the intervention and study procedures. This study will compare participants who use a mobile phone app that notifies them when to take their medications (intervention group) to participants who do not get assigned the app (control group) for 30 days. Medication adherence will be monitored using a Medication Event Monitoring System (MEMS) cap. Both groups will also receive the usual care, which will include giving participants a pamphlet about taking their medications. The long-term goal of this work is to improve antihypertensive medication adherence and to decrease morbidity and mortality. The objective of this application is to test the efficacy of the app based reminders and feedback. The hypothesis driving this research is that the intervention will be more effective than the usual care. The specific aims are as follows:
Purpose: Multiple formulations and brands of botulinum toxin exist on the market today. Only OnabotulinumtoxinA (BOTOX®) is currently FDA approved for treatment of overactive bladder. IncobotulinumtoxinA (XEOMIN®) is a similar formulation of botulinum toxin A that has similar dosing and safety profile at onabotulinumtoxinA. OnabotulinumtoxinA is the most expensive formulation on the market. Compare the efficacy of incobotulinumtoxinA (Xeomin®, Merz Pharmaceuticals) to onabotulinumtoxinA (Botox®, Allergan) for treatment of OAB. Study design: A single-blinded, randomized non-inferiority trial of IncobotulinumtoxinA (Xeomin®, Merz Pharmaceuticals) to OnabotulinumtoxinA (Botox®, Allergan) in treatment of OAB. Target Population: The study findings will be applicable to all women 18 years of age or older with OAB symptoms associated with urinary urgency incontinence. Procedure: All patients that presents to urogynecology clinic at Walter Reed National Medical Military Center will be screened for inclusion and exclusion criteria. Patients that meet criteria will be offered to participate in the study. After enrollment patient will complete demographics data sheet, 24 hours bladder diary, OAB-q SF, PGI-S, PISQ-IR. Patients will be randomized by the principal investigator and the allocated treatment will be reveled by the treating provider to the treating provider only. Patient will have a follow up at 2-6 weeks and 6-9 months after procedure. During the follow up appointments patient will be asked to fill out 24-hour voiding diary, OAB-q SF, PGI-I, PGI-S, and PISQ-IR surveys.
Dose Escalation - Determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), if possible, or minimum optimal biologic dose (OBD), and evaluate the safety and tolerability of VIP943 in subjects with advanced CD123+ hematologic malignancies
