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 the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity, antitumor activity and pharmacodynamics of BMS-986148 administered alone and in combination with nivolumab in patients with mesothelioma, non-small cell lung cancer, ovarian cancer, pancreatic cancer and gastric cancer.
This study will determine the effect of QPI-1007 on visual function in subjects with recent-onset NAION and assess the safety and tolerability of intravitreal injections of QPI-1007 in this population. This study will also evaluate the structural changes in the retina following administration of QPI-1007.
The purpose of this study is to find out if by giving a combination of 3 drugs the leukemia will go into complete remission (meaning the leukemia is completely gone), and to find out how long it stays away. The drugs used in this project are FDA approved and commercially available.
Anemia of pregnancy is defined as a hemoglobin concentration of less than 11 g/dL in the first and third trimesters, and less than 10.5 g/dL in the second trimester. The rates of anemia are variable and depend largely on preexisting iron stores and supplementation. Estimates from the World Health Organization report that 35% to 75% of pregnant women in developing countries and 18% of women from industrialized countries are anemic. Maternal anemia is associated with an increased risk of preterm birth, low birthweight, and small for gestational age infants. Many studies have shown improvement in these outcomes with maternal iron supplementation in cases of iron-deficiency anemia. Mounting evidence also indicates that maternal iron deficiency in pregnancy reduces fetal iron stores, perhaps well into the first year of life. Anemia in pregnancy can also impact maternal morbidity and mortality. Viteri reported that anemic pregnant women are at greater risk of death during the perinatal period and that anemia is the major contributory or sole cause of death in 20-40% of the 500,000 maternal deaths per year. The need for iron averages close to 1000mg in a typical singleton gestation. This amount considerably exceeds the iron stores of most women and will result in iron-deficiency anemia unless supplemental iron is taken. One problem with iron supplement use is compliance, secondary to adverse effects such as constipation and nausea. Research on the use of cast iron pots in decreasing the incidence of iron-deficiency anemia in non-pregnant women has been promising. These studies have demonstrated good compliance with no reported adverse effects. The aim of our study is to determine if providing anemic women in the first trimester of pregnancy with a cast iron pot will decrease the incidence of anemia later in pregnancy. Hypothesis: Cooking in cast iron pots will increase hematocrit levels in pregnancy.
The investigators plan to test the effectiveness of warm gel gloves in reducing the time it takes individuals to fall asleep (sleep latency). The investigators will have subjects track their sleep for two-weeks using both sleep logs and a small wristwatch-like monitor called an actigraph to measure the degree of the persons' difficulty falling asleep. It must take at least 30-minutes to fall asleep 3-days per week to qualify for the study. If a subject qualifies, they will wear the heated gel gloves or a placebo non-heated gel glove during sleep for two-weeks and sleep will be measured again using sleep logs and actigraphy. The baseline sleep latency data will be compared to the treatment period using a independent t-test. The investigators believe that wearing the warm gel gloves will reduce sleep latency.
This study looks at the efficacy of Doxycycline for the treatment of Cutaneous T-cell Lymphomas.
The goal of the study is to determine accurate blood test levels that can predict whether or not subjects are truly allergic to certain foods. In this study, subjects that are clinically documented to be wheat-allergic will participate in a double blind oral food challenge. Blood will be collected from the subject to evaluate the potential allergenicity of proteins introduced into genetically modified crops and evaluate wheat-specific immunoglobulin-e (IgE) antibody reactivity to biotech and conventional wheat varieties.
The primary objective of the proposed study is to determine the use of a wireless method to monitor and record core body temperature during a Whole Body Hyperthermia treatment, compared to an indwelling rectal thermometer. This protocol is intended to study the differences between a rectal temperature probe and an approved wireless and indigestible thermometer during a WBH session. The current standard in monitoring core body temperature is the usage of an indwelling rectal thermometer. Many patients and potential study subjects, however, decline receiving the treatment, due to the discomfort of using this measuring method and a wireless measuring device would open the possibility for those patients to receive a treatment. The primary endpoint for example of a treatment for MDD is currently defined with reaching a rectal temperature of 38.5 C. However, due to the proximity of the probe to the body's surface, the core body temperature will vary from the rectal temperature and the comparison between the two methods with a validation of the wireless device is necessary. The investigators will monitor subject's physiological outcome from a single Whole Body Hyperthermia treatment in an open fashion (no placebo/control condition). This study will include safety assessments 7 days several days prior to or same day as the WBH, and include follow-up assessments 1 day and 1 week later.
Human clinical trial to measure the effect of long duration therapeutic ultrasound on tendon injuries. The hypothesis is that use of long duration ultrasound will relieve pain, increase tendon strength, and improve quality of life for patients with tendon injury.
This international, multicenter, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study is designed to compare the efficacy and safety of taselisib + fulvestrant with that of placebo + fulvestrant in postmenopausal women with estrogen receptor (ER)-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2)-negative, oncogene that encodes for phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase (PIK3CA)-mutant, unresectable, locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer after recurrence or progression during or after an aromatase inhibitor (AI) therapy. There will be a 2:1 randomization to the taselisib arm versus the placebo arm. Enrollment will be enriched for participants with PIK3CA mutant tumors via central testing. The anticipated duration of the study is approximately 3.5 years.
