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.
Determining if Megakaryocytes and Platelets are Harmful or Helpful in Breast Cancer Cell Metastasis
The objective of this study is to survey patients with cluster headache about treatment effectiveness and their views on treatments. Participants will complete one brief questionnaire online.
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the efficacy and safety of multiple doses of foselutoclax (UBX1325) in patients with Diabetic Macular Edema. The main questions the study aims to answer are: - Assess the efficacy of foselutoclax compared to aflibercept - Assess the safety and tolerability of foselutoclax
This clinical study aims to address a research and clinical treatment gap related to individuals with symptoms of Silicosis resulting from quartzite mining work. Silicosis represents a challenge in this specific population in Sao Thome das Letras, Minas Gerais. Silicosis is a severe disease and is considered incurable. Current conventional medicine only offers palliative care for those with Silicosis, highlighting the important and urgent need for research into complementary care approaches.
The purpose of this study is to determine the immunogenicity of the CIMAvaxEGF® vaccine (that is, its effectiveness in inducing an anti-tumor immune response) in patients with metastatic KRAS/NRAS/BRAF wild-type gene colorectal cancer, when given in combination with standard therapies used in the treatment of advanced colorectal cancer.
Scientific advances are constantly leading to better treatments. However, it is quite challenging for healthcare systems, including VA, to ask very busy providers to change the way they practice. The MIDAS QUERI program helps providers improve the way they treat VA patients. This project will focus on increasing referrals to the Suicide Prevention 2.0 Clinical Telehealth (SP 2.0) initiative through the delivery of Academic Detailing and LEAP (a team-based quality improvement program). SP 2.0 provides accessible, evidence-based suicide prevention treatment to all Veterans with a history of suicidal self-directed violence or preparatory behaviors in the past 12 months.
For stroke patients, early initiation of therapy typically yields the best functional outcomes. Rehabilitation of stroke patients immediately after hospitalization minimizes deleterious effects of immobility and facilitates restoration of function. The investigators are testing if coordinated efforts between the medical and rehabilitation disciplines may improve stroke patient's functional recovery and subsequent follow-ups after discharge.
Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) leading to Alzheimer's disease and related disorders (ADRD) represents a significant health and economic burden of the rapidly expanding senior population. The accurate detection and diagnosis of MCI and its common comorbidity, late-life depression (LLD), is essential for prolonging patient quality of life and developing advancements in research and treatment options. The purpose of the proposed program is to refine Miro Health's A.I. to accurately detect, differentiate and diagnose MCI and LLD.
The aim of this multi-surgeon, single institution study is to prospectively evaluate the incidence of allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) following application of AQUACEL Ag, a silver-containing hydrofiber dressing, in total hip and knee arthroplasty patients. Arthroplasty-naïve patients will be compared to prior total joint arthroplasty patients who received a Aquacel dressing postoperatively.
Wound complications can be devastating following total joint arthroplasty, resulting in an increased practice burden in the form of more frequent follow ups, increased clinic visits potential for wound dehiscence, superficial infection and deep infection with possible return to the operating room and revision surgery. Several dressing options are currently on the market designed to minimize wound complications in addition to traditional dressings, including negative pressure dressing, antimicrobial dressing, occlusive dressings, and/or skin adhesives. Prineo dressing (2-octyl cyanoacrylate adhesive (Dermabond) and n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate adhesive) has increased in popularity as a dressing option used by joint arthroplasty surgeons. There is a well-documented adverse allergic response with these dressings resulting in peri-incisional erythema, urticaria, and/or an eczematous skin reaction. Recently, Mayman et al reported a rate of 1-1.5%, suggesting a possible rising incidence of ACD attributable to increased utilization of the specific dressing and sensitization. To our knowledge, no prospective trial has compared the rates of adverse allergic reactions in Prineo naive patients to patients who have undergone previous total joint arthroplasty (TJA) and received Prineo dressings in the past. The study team will utilize a prospective controlled study design to assess the rate of adverse allergic reactions in patients naive to Prineo versus those with previous exposure. The study team will assess rates of allergic reactions at one week post-op and at their first post-op clinic visit, 2 to 3 weeks post-op, tracking rates of allergic reactions as well as severity, the use of post-operative antibiotics, work up for prosthetic joint infection, return to the operating room, surgical site infection, confirmed prosthetic joint infection and stiffness requiring manipulation under anesthesia.
