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 if GTx-024 is effective and safe in the treatment of patients with advanced, androgen receptor positive triple negative breast cancer (AR+ TNBC).
This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, 16 week trial of the medication zonisamide for the treatment of heavy drinking alcoholic Veterans.
Investigators will assess the effect of exercise on markers of inflammation and protein catabolism. This research study will further our understanding of how treating Chronic Critical illness (CCI) - related respiratory muscle weakness with strength training can not only improve muscle function, but also potentially blunt the inflammation and catabolism of Peristent Inflammation/Immunosuppression and Catabolism (PICS).
This randomized phase III trial studies 90-yttrium ibritumomab tiuxetan and combination chemotherapy compared with combination chemotherapy alone before stem cell transplant in treating patients with diffuse large b-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma that has returned after a period of improvement. Radioactive substances linked to monoclonal antibodies, such as 90-yttrium ibritumomab tiuxetan, can bind to cancer cells and give off radiation which may help kill cancer cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carmustine, etoposide phosphate, cytarabine, and melphalan (BEAM), work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. It is not yet known whether 90-yttrium ibritumomab tiuxetan and BEAM before a stem cell transplant are more effective than BEAM alone in treating patients with diffuse large b-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
Postdural puncture headaches (PDPH) are a consequence of spinal and epidural anesthesia in approximately 1% of cases when performed in obstetric patients. The gold standard treatment for a PDPH is currently an epidural blood patch (EBP), which involves placing a needle back into the epidural space of the neuraxium and then injecting 20 ml of the patient's own blood through the needle and into the epidural space to form a clot over the insult in the tissue layer that causes the headaches. The investigators want to test the efficacy of using a less invasive procedure, called a sphenopalatine block (SPGB), for treatment of PDPH. SPGB has been used for many years in the treatment of migraines and cluster headaches, and there are several case reports of its use to successfully treat PDPH as well. SPGB simply involves applying a local anesthetic to the mucosa in the back of each nostril to numb the nerves that cause the headache. The investigators hope that the SPGB will reduce the number of PDPH patients that require and EBP.
The purpose of this study is to image human prostate tissue using a new transrectal photoacoustic imaging probe and correlate this with ultrasound and MRI imaging performed once the specimen has been surgically removed. We hope to see what we can visualize with our device as this has never been done before. Eventually, we hope to use a similar device to image the prostate in men being seen by their doctor for prostate cancer.
This study will evaluate the effectiveness of the rotigotine transdermal patch in reducing anxiety in people with Parkinson's disease.
This study will prospectively evaluate the technical feasibility, acute toxicity, late effects and oncologic outcomes of CyberKnife Stereotactic Accelerated Partial Breast Irradiation (CK-SAPBI) in early stage breast cancer. It will evaluate quality of life (QOL) issues as they relate to treatment-related side effects and cosmetic results.
The purpose of this study is to retrospectively evaluate the hemodynamic response to goal directed fluid therapy fluid during open abdominal surgery where goal directed fluid therapy is a standard of care after establishing a pre-incision baseline response to fluids.
This is an open-label, Phase I, dose escalation study to determine the recommended Phase 2 dose, maximum tolerated dose, and evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetic profile of ABBV-221 in participants with advanced solid tumors likely to exhibit elevated levels of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR).
