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 proposed study consists of two phases. During Phase 1, the investigators will recruit a small sample of participants to complete a psychosocial intervention termed Amplification of Positivity (AMP) for individuals experiencing comorbid depression or anxiety disorders and alcohol use disorder (AMP-A). These participants will be asked to provide both qualitative and quantitative input about the AMP-A intervention. Based on their input and clinician input, the AMP-A manual will be modified for use in Phase 2. The goal is to recruit up to 20 participants in order to ensure there will be at least 8 participants who complete all sessions of AMP-A. Phase 2 is a randomized clinical trial (RCT) protocol in which individuals experiencing comorbid depression or anxiety disorders and alcohol use disorder will be randomized to complete AMP-A or an evidence-based cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) intervention. Up to 100 participants will be recruited in order to reach a target of N=60. Assessed outcomes will include participant acceptability and completion rates, participant compliance with the intervention, positive and negative affect, substance use- and depression and anxiety-related symptom severity, functional disability, and neural reactivity to reward and alcohol cues during functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI).
Determine if the standard of care at a cardiac rehabilitation center using what the investigators term to be "hybrid model" on the exercise component of cardiac rehabilitation is associated with improved adherence and outcomes. Discuss the hybrid model in comparison to traditional cardiac rehabilitation and layout a template on how to incorporate this hybrid model. Discuss factors that may lead to poor adherence and attendance to cardiac rehabilitation.
The SOAP registry is a prospective, multicenter, electronic registry. The goal is to investigate the indications, mode of airway management, predisposing factors, and obstetric and anesthetic outcomes of pregnant patients who receive general anesthesia for cesarean delivery.
The goal of this clinical trial is to understand if and how an animal-assisted intervention [AAI] using therapy dogs can support hemodialysis [HD] patients' treatment adherence and enhance their well-being. The main objectives are: - Objective 1: Determine if the AAI impacts patients' HD treatment adherence (primary outcome is number of unplanned missed treatments no due to hospitalization). - Objective 2: Evaluate if the AAI impacts patients' psychosocial well-being (secondary outcomes are stress, pain, mood, QOL). - Objective 3: Examine potential mechanistic biomarkers that underpin human-animal bonding (hormones tied to stress and bonding). (exploratory aim) - Objective 4: Understand patients' subjective experiences of the AAI. Participants will be asked to engage in several research tasks, including: - assessments - therapy dog visits - monthly blood draws - focus group Researchers will compare how the treatment group (those who receive 2 dogs visits per week) and the control group (those who receive 0 dog visits per week) to see if the AAI impacts treatment adherence and psychosocial well-being.
In this is a randomized phase II study the addition of R-FMT to pembrolizumab /lenvatinib in PD-1 R/R melanoma will be evaluated over a 104-week period in patients with anti-PD-1 R/R disease. Patients with PD-1 refractory advanced melanoma are eligible to enroll, excluding patients with prior lenvatinib (or other TKI) exposure. Intestinal microbiome composition mediates response to anti-PD-1 by affecting systemic inflammatory tone.
The PI and the research team developed the New York University (NYU) Electronic Patient Visit Assessment (ePVA) for head and neck cancer (HNC) as a patient-reported outcome measure (PRO) for the early detection of uncontrolled symptoms. The ePVA is digital patient-reported symptom monitoring system, providing actionable information at point-of-care that enables clinicians to provide real-time interventions. The study aims to advance the science of cancer care delivery by testing the effectiveness of the ePVA as a digital patient-reported monitoring system for patients with HNC in real-world settings and identify implementation strategies that optimize the effectiveness of the ePVA in diverse rural and urban settings. The study hypothesis is that participants assigned to the ePVA arm will have better swallowing, taste and smell, and social function than participants assigned to usual care arm at 4 weeks after completing radiation therapy.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the anti-tumor activity of bortezomib in participants with Metastatic Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer (mCRPC) with PTEN Deletion. The main question[s] it aims to answer is if the use of bortezomib will result in a decline in PSA for participants. Participants will receive a sub-cutaneous injection of bortezomib for up 8 cycles. Each cycle is about 21 days.
The goal of this study is to learn if tilpisertib fosmecarbil (formerly known as GS-5290) is effective and safe in treating participants with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis. The study will compare participants in different treatment groups treated with tilpisertib fosmecarbil with participants treated with placebo. The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy of tilpisertib fosmecarbil, compared to placebo control, in achieving Clinical Response at Week 12.
A problem with breathing during sleep, called obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), likely increases the risk of stroke and is common in people who have had a stroke, present in about 2/3 of stroke survivors. There is also evidence that OSA predicts worse outcome after stroke. The question being addressed in the Stroke and CPAP Outcome Study 3 (SCOUTS3) is how to improve use of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy to treat OSA when started during intensive stroke rehabilitation.
This study will evaluate the relative vaccine effectiveness of quadrivalent adjuvanted inactivated influenza vaccine (aIIV4) versus quadrivalent high-dose inactivated influenza vaccine (HD-IIV4) in preventing polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-confirmed influenza and influenza-related outcomes in adults ≥65 years of age during the 2023/24 and 2024/25 influenza seasons. The study is an observational study conducted at Kaiser Permanente Northern California (KPNC), an integrated health care system in the United States.
