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.
This randomized phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of endoxifen hydrochloride in treating participants who are undergoing breast surgery. Endoxifen hydrochloride may treat or reduce the risk of breast cancer.
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of a recombinant adeno-associated virus vector (rAAV2tYF-GRK1-RPGR) in patients with X-linked retinitis pigmentosa caused by RPGR mutations.
To develop a test to characterize and monitor Multiple Sclerosis (MS) disease status and therapy response from a participant's home by analyzing the gene expression from participant self-collected blood samples using a novel fingerstick collection kit.
The purpose of this study is to analyze biopsied tissue samples for changes in cells and genes involved in Barrett's Esophagus.
Influenza vaccination is indicated for all adults, but the immunogenicity of vaccination has not been assessed in all situations. We are conducting a prospective unblinded study of influenza vaccine recipients.
This study is to help determine the most effective type or combination of treatments to offer patients seeking lung cancer screening who are smokers to help them reduce the number of cigarettes they smoke, or quit smoking. The investigators long term goal is to increase the benefits of lung cancer screening by providing a blue print of best practices for screening sites to deliver tobacco treatment to their patients who are smokers, in a way that does not add burden to screening site staff and increases the chances of patients quitting smoking.
Background: Some people with prostate cancer have a rise in prostate-specific antigen (PSA). This can happen even after treatments like radiation and surgery. Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) drugs and close monitoring are one standard way to treat this group of people. Another way is to monitor people and their PSA values over time. Researchers want to see if a combination of new drugs can help these people. Objective: To see if the combination treatment of PROSTVAC, CV301, and MSB0011359C (M7824) can induce an anti-tumor attack in people with biochemically recurrent prostate cancer. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older with certain kinds of prostate cancer Design: Participants will be screened with - Medical history - Physical exam - Blood and urine tests - A scan of the neck, chest, abdomen, and pelvis - A bone scan A sample of tissue that was already taken will be tested. This will confirm the diagnosis, stage, and disease status. Some participants will have close monitoring with four monthly PSA checks. All participants will get two study drugs as shots under the skin. They will get the third drug in a vein. They will get the drugs over at least 7 months. Their vital signs will be checked before they get the drugs and for up to 1 hour after. Participants will have frequent study visits. They will have physical exams, urine and blood tests, and scans. Participants will return to the clinic about 4 weeks after they stop taking the study drugs. They will have a medical history, physical exam, and blood tests. They may also have long-term follow-up visits.
Single center, single-arm, open-label, 60-month follow-up phase IIb clinical trial. Men with localized prostate cancer will receive TOOKAD® Soluble VTP under general anesthesia. To evaluate the absence of biopsy detectable Gleason grade 4 or 5 prostate cancer tumors anywhere in the prostate gland on 12-month, post-treatment biopsy following TOOKAD® Soluble-VTP in men with prostate cancer Gleason score 7(3+4).
Autologous stem cell transplant is beneficial to patients who are diagnosed with multiple myeloma or systemic amyloidosis. However, undesired symptoms such as weakness, fatigue, nausea, pain and sleep disturbance after transplant can contribute to complications and increase the how long the patient is in the hospital, especially in patients age 60-75. Research has shown that the development and the intensity of these symptoms are closely associated with an increase in a protein called a cytokine which is involved in the inflammatory response in the human body. One of the cytokines is called Interleukin-6 or IL-6.Therefore, this study will investigate if blocking IL-6 with an agent called siltuximab, administered before and after transplant, will decrease the symptom burden after transplant to improve quality of life and recovery in the immediate post-transplant period.
The proposed study is a randomized trial evaluating the impact of a dietary and physical activity guidelines intervention vs. usual care on adherence to breast cancer treatments, body composition, and changes in biomarkers in 172 women newly diagnosed with breast cancer scheduled to receive neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy.
