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 determine whether specific assays of DNA damage repair proteins can be used in patients undergoing radiation therapy. The ultimate goal of this research is to develop clinically useful biomarkers from blood samples that could be used to customize radiation treatment for individuals, leading to reduced side effects and improved outcomes.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of short-term dosing of IV ciprofloxacin when administered concomitantly with IV Valortim in healthy normal human subjects.
RATIONALE: Diagnostic procedures, such as 3'-deoxy-3'-[18F] fluorothymidine (FLT) PET imaging, may help find and diagnose cancer. It may also help doctors predict a patient's response to treatment and help plan the best treatment. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying FLT PET imaging in patients with cancer.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of natural killer (NK) cell and natural killer T (NKT) cell-based autologous adoptive immunotherapy in subjects with metastatic, treatment-refractory breast cancer, glioma, hepatocellular carcinoma, squamous cell lung cancer, pancreatic cancer, colon cancer or prostate cancer.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of repeated doses of AZD7325 on the pharmacokinetics of ORTHO-CYCLEN, a monophasic oral contraceptive
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of using ankle manual therapy procedures on clinical outcomes in individuals with post-acute ankle sprains.
This is a single-center, Phase II study including only patients on whom a decision to conduct radiofrequency ablation (RFA) has already been made. The primary objective of this study assess if quality of life was improved by RFA as assessed at baseline, 3 and potentially 6 and 12 months following RFA for the benign lesions. RFA is an imaging guided percutaneous or intra-operative procedure that uses a probe on the end of a sharp needle that is inserted directly into the tumor. The tumor is ablated by heating the probe (using an electrical current alternating at radio frequency) which raises the temperature of the tumor potentially causing irreversible cell death. RF ablation is an alternative for local tumor control when other treatments (surgery, radiotherapy or chemotherapy) are not feasible (less effective or at higher risk). Thermal ablation at times is the only remaining alternative for patient cure, prolonged survival or palliation. Cryotherapy, and microwave, laser and focused ultrasound are alternative thermal ablation techniques used in adults but there has been no experience in children with these alternative methods. To be eligible for this study, patients must have acquired lesions at < 21 years of age (central nervous system lesions are excluded from this study). Study participants will have the RFA procedure performed at Seattle Children's and will have follow-up evaluations at various time points post-RFA.
Methods of infertility treatment may involve in vitro fertilization or IVF. Though effective, IVF is complex and expensive. Methods using no gonadotropin hormone stimulation of the ovaries are being compared to mild stimulation doses. The goal of the research is to determine which of these if more suitable as a low cost approach for varying individual patients.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ADHEXIL™ in preventing and/or reducing post-operative adhesions in patients undergoing surgery involving the ovaries.
The size of a heart attack will be decreased by the use of timed balloon inflations to open the blocked blood vessel.
