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.
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is responsible for 1 out of every 5 deaths, is the number one killer of Americans, killing about 700K US adults per year (1). Our proposed research is a clinical trial that will determine the effects of feeding California freeze-dried grapes (which are directly comparable to fresh table grapes), on cardiovascular and chronic disease risk factors, namely, blood glucose and lipids (total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, and triacylglycerides), electrolyte and blood indicators (such as sodium, calcium, potassium, etc.), c-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) (measures of inflammation and CVD risk), body composition (body weight, body fat percentage, lean tissue weight, body water amount and Kcal requirement to maintain body composition status), and blood pressure (BP) in 30 adults. The investigators will test satiety and hunger to see if grape antioxidants decrease both, implying that there will be a decrease in caloric intake and result in body composition improvements.
Given the current Covid-19 pandemic alongside the lack of evidence on aerosolization during upper endoscopy the investigators are conducting a randomized controlled trial seeking to assess both the level of aerosolization that occurs during these procedures along with determining if utilization of an endoscopic patient face-masks reduces the level of aerosolized particles. The protocol includes the use of a commercially available particle counter the investigators are employing for the measurement of aerosols before, during, and after anesthesia assisted upper endoscopic procedures. The investigators are recruiting patients undergoing these procedures with a target of 30 patients undergoing endoscopy without a facemask and 30 patients undergoing endoscopy with one.
This phase II trial tests how well cabozantinib in combination with atezolizumab works in treating patients with adrenocortical cancer that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced), that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic), or that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). Cabozantinib inhibits receptor tyrosine kinases, which are receptors commonly over-expressed by tumor cells. This may result in an inhibition of both tumor growth and blood vessel formation, eventually leading to a decrease in tumor size or extent in the body. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Adding cabozantinib to atezolizumab may be more effective at treating patients with adrenal cortical cancer than giving these drugs alone.
This is a prospective longitudinal study that will evaluate the unmet needs of older adults (65 and older) who return home (either directly or after short-term rehab) after an ICU hospitalization, evaluate the association of these unmet needs with clinically relevant outcomes, and assess barriers and facilitators to addressing these unmet needs. The proposed research will inform the development and evaluation of a subsequent intervention to improve functional outcomes among older ICU survivors, in alignment with the NIH's mission to reduce disability.
This is a multi-center, open-label study to investigate the safety, efficacy and pharmacokinetics of REC-4881 (12 mg PO daily doses) for the treatment of participants with unresectable locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors with AXIN1 or APC mutation.
The goal of this survey study is to identify environmental, occupational and reproductive health risk factors for Lewy body dementia, which includes Parkinson's disease dementia and dementia with Lewy bodies. Participants will complete a one-time survey online or over the phone that includes questions on environmental, occupational factors they may have been exposed to and on medical history including reproductive health. Researchers will then compare the responses of people with Lewy body dementia and people without Parkinson's or memory/thinking problems to see which factors play a role in Lewy body dementia. Identifying risk factors can guide future treatment efforts and provide more insight to this dementia.
The goal of this Clinical Study is to understand the outcomes by informing therapy choice for adjuvant treatment in clear cell renal cell carcinoma by using molecular residual disease. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - what is the progression free survival of a cohort of high risk resected RCC patients when treated based on MRD - what is the overall survival of high risk resected RCC patients when treated based on MRD Participants will forgo adjuvant therapy with pembrolizumab if they have no detectable molecular residual disease. Participants will continue on with standard of care pembrolizumab if they do appear to have molecular residual disease.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of XmAb27564 following multiple doses among participants with plaque psoriasis and atopic dermatitis.
This first-in-human study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and antitumor activity of TORL-4-500 in patients with advanced cancer
Prospective collection of data from medical records, multicenter, post-market clinical follow-up study.
