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 test the safety of a combination of the study drug called WST11 and PDT. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a type of ablation therapy (treatment which destroys tumor cells) which has been previously approved for the treatment of patients with other cancers. It works by using a drug that is given through the vein and then is activated in the tumor by light administered during endoscopy, which results in destruction of the cancer cells.
The Supportive Release Center (SRC) is a collaboration between the University of Chicago Urban Health Lab, Treatment Alternatives for Safe Communities, Heartland Alliance Health, and the Cook County Sheriff's office. The aim of the SRC is to identify individuals with mental illnesses, substance use disorders, and other vulnerabilities as they are released from the Cook County Jail (CCJ), provide an improved environment to assess needs of these individuals, and facilitate effective linkages with social services following release, including medical care and substance use or mental health treatment. The SRC improves the current standard of care offered at the CCJ by introducing mechanisms to facilitate engagement with post-release services and address individuals' immediate acute needs. The primary objective of this randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the impact of assignment to the SRC on the number of arrests within one year of study enrollment among eligible men being released from the Cook County Jail. Researchers hypothesize that the SRC is more effective than usual care at facilitating and ensuring receipt of transition services and care, and that receipt of this treatment will decrease the number of arrests within one year of study enrollment.
A Phase 1 Dose Escalation and Expansion Study of AZD9833 Alone or in Combination in Women with ER Positive, HER2 Negative Advanced Breast Cancer (SERENA-1)
This is a randomized, controlled trial to slow cognitive decline in adults undergoing hemodialysis (HD). The investigators will test three interventions cognitive training (CT), exercise training (ET), and combined cognitive and exercise training (CT+ET) relative to standard of care (SC).
This study will evaluate the efficacy of uproleselan (GMI-1271), a specific E-selectin antagonist, in combination with chemotherapy to treat relapsed/refractory AML, compared to chemotherapy alone. The safety of uproleselan when given with chemotherapy will also be investigated in patients with relapsed/refractory AML
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurological disorder that puts individuals at high risk for injuries and long-term disabilities as a result of a fall or other trauma. Injuries sustained from falls account for many deaths as well as thousands of hospital admissions and nursing home stays every month. Quality of life and even longevity itself is reduced due to the resulting surgeries, immobility, complications and even cognitive impairments that can follow. The proposed study will explore beneficial impact of a treatment modality (OMM/OMT) that may significantly reduce the morbidity of this condition by comparing 6 weeks of OMT versus 6 weeks light touch intervention versus 6 weeks care as usual to improve gait in individuals with PD. Gait will be measured at mid-treatment, post-treatment and 4-week follow-up.
An evaluation of the safety and performance of the Conformal Left Atrial Appendage Seal for Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion
This is a multi-center convenience sample prospective study comparing the results of the Verify Now® Aspirin Test and PRUTest® Platelet Reactivity Tests with the Japan investigational reagents to reagents registered in Japan in the expected population receiving aspirin (ASA) and the P2Y12 inhibitor clopidogrel.
This study is looking at genetic, biological, and environmental causes and how all three may work together to cause postpartum mood episodes. Participants will have psychiatric histories taken and will be monitored throughout pregnancy and during the postpartum period for the development of depressive or other mood episodes. Biological measures, including hormone levels, immunological measures, and growth factors will be collected. Environmental factors such as sleep deprivation and stress will also be measured. These factors will be considered in the setting of genetic and epigenetic data with the hope that investigators will ultimately be able to predict the onset of postpartum mood episodes in this vulnerable population.
The Adventist Health Study-2 is a long-term study, exploring the links between lifestyle, diet, and disease outcomes among Seventh-day Adventists. More than 96,000 church members from the U.S. and Canada are participating in the current study, AHS-2, conducted by researchers at the Loma Linda University School of Public Health.
