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, multicenter study that will be conducted at up to 40 centers in the United States and Outside United States (OUS). Participants in the study will be randomly assigned to receive either ONCO-DOX or sorafenib treatment. This study will evaluate the study participants' outcomes (medical condition) after being treated with ONCO-DOX and compare it to those treated with sorafenib alone.
Primary Objectives: Pilot Portion: To determine the feasibility and safety of administering oral glyburide to non-diabetic patients receiving stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) for newly diagnosed brain metastases. Randomized Portion: To determine the number of patients with newly diagnosed brain metastases who have an increase in edema as measured on volumetric FLAIR imaging and the number of patients that require dexamethasone administration (or any corticosteroid administration with the purpose of treating cerebral edema) from the day of SRS to one month follow-up MRI in the group receiving glyburide versus placebo.
This is a Phase 1/2 trial using indoximod, an inhibitor of the immune "checkpoint" pathway indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO), in combination with Tergenpumatucel-L immunotherapy and Docetaxel to treat subjects with advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC). From a practical standpoint, a successful tumor immunotherapy will likely require a combination treatment with additional therapeutic interventions that both activate an immune response and remove redundant mechanisms of tolerance maintenance. This clinical trial utilizes the combination of the chemotherapeutic agent, docetaxel, plus two investigational methods of cancer immunotherapy: the first, tergenpumatucel-L, is intended to educate the human immune system to recognize the abnormal components found in lung cancer cells, resulting in an immune response intended to destroy or block the growth of the cancer; and the second, the IDO inhibitor Indoximod, will overcome tumor-induced immune suppression. The goal of this study is to assess the progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) rates in this patient population. This study will provide a foundation for future trials testing indoximod combined with tergenpumatucel-L.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether metformin can increase urine concentration (osmolality) and decrease the amount of urine in patients with congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI).
The Archimedes System is an image-guided navigation system used to access tissue samples in the lungs. This study is being conducted to confirm the performance of the Archimedes System in patients who are scheduled for standard bronchoscopy to diagnose highly suspicious lung cancer or metastatic disease. Navigation to and sampling of the patient's lung cancer tumor is conducted.
The MOMS Partnership aims to create "MOMS Zones" in New Haven neighborhoods where the hardest to reach families live. These "MOMS Zones" will have two unique features: (1) a MOMS "Hub" to deliver centralized mental health and family economic success services to the hardest to reach families living in New Haven's most impoverished neighborhoods, as measured by actual socio-economic status as well as by access to resources; (2) a neighborhood workforce of Community Mental Health Ambassadors (CMHAs--mothers who themselves live in New Haven). The MOMS Workforce Program and MOMS Mental Health Program will be offered at all three Hubs.
Men with low-risk, clinically localized, unilateral prostate cancer will be treated with unilateral nerve-sparing cryoablation and evaluated for the rate of potency, cancer control and health related quality of life outcomes after treatment.
The main objective of this project is to asses for safety, feasibility and effectiveness of an aggressive feeding protocol, PEP uP (Enhanced Protein-Energy Provision via the Enteral Route Feeding Protocol) in increasing protein and energy delivery to critically ill surgical patients. Our hypothesis is that an aggressive feeding protocol, PEP uP will be safe, acceptable, and effectively increase protein and energy delivery to critically ill surgical patients.
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate whether the 50cc TAH-t can safely support, and provide probable benefit to, transplant-eligible pediatric patients (aged 10 - 18 years) and can safely and effectively support transplant-eligible adult patients (aged 19 - 75 years) at imminent risk of death from biventricular failure without experiencing permanent disabling, stroke-related deficits. The study will be conducted as a three-arm trial of the 50cc temporary Total Artificial Heart (TAH-t) as a bridge to transplant: - The Primary Pediatric Arm of the trial will evaluate the safety and probable benefit of the 50cc TAH-t for transplant-eligible patients 10 through 18 years of age. - The Primary Adult Arm of the trial will evaluate the safety and efficacy of the 50cc TAH-t for transplant-eligible patients 19 through 75 years of age. - The Secondary Arm will capture pediatric and adult subjects who did not meet enrollment criteria for a Primary Arm, but meet the less restrictive Secondary Arm enrollment criteria, in order to further characterize the use of the device.
