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 4-week randomized study is to evaluate the effect of personalized plans plus an email campaign, with and without email-based coaching (eCoaching), on engagement in a new weekday outdoor walking (WOW) routine and average daily step count. Approximately 150 participants will be recruited via paid ads on Facebook and Instagram. Participants will be randomized to a control group, an intervention group without eCoaching, and an intervention group with eCoaching. The control group will be told that they can work a WOW routine on their own, with the opportunity to take part in the intervention after completing the 4-week follow-up assessment. Both intervention groups will complete an activity that will guide the creation of habit plan (e.g., When I finish eating lunch at work, then I will put on my walking shoes and go outside) and receive a 2-week long personalized email campaign. The primary outcome of interest is change in average daily step count from the month prior to the month after baseline assessment, as compared across the three groups. It is hypothesized that the intervention groups will result in an increase in daily step count, as compared to the control group. Secondary outcomes include habit strength at one-month follow-up and change in self-reported sleep quality and self-efficacy from baseline to follow-up.
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of TransCon TLR7/8 Agonist, TransCon IL-2 β/γ, and pembrolizumab given prior to curative intent surgery in treatment of participants with newly diagnosed Stage III/IVA resectable locoregionally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (LA-HNSCC). After surgery, participants will receive local standard-of-care treatment and will be followed for safety, efficacy, and survival for up to 2 years. This trial contains a safety run-in to evaluate the safety and tolerability of the two treatment arms: Arm A (TransCon TLR7/8 Agonist plus pembrolizumab) and Arm B (TransCon TLR7/8 Agonist plus TransCon IL-2 β/γ). The safety run-in will be followed by the randomized Phase 2, open-label part of the trial comparing the safety, efficacy and survival of treatment Arm A or Arm B compared to treatment Arm C (pembrolizumab monotherapy).
This study is meant primarily to assess the deployment of the ADI CPM System in a clinical setting and determine interoperability of the CPM System within existing care pathways for patients with CHF. In this initial study the CPM System will not be used to determine or support clinical decision making however post deployment the clinical study team will review patient HF events and changes in treatment during the course of the deployment and compare to the data generated by the CPM System during the study to determine the accuracy of the patient generated data as a basis for designing a more comprehensive "interventional study" to determine clinical and financial efficacy of the CPM System.
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to examine if there is a relationship between the addition of the genicular nerve block and anterior femoral cutaneous nerve block in providing analgesia and the use of oral and intravenous medication in patients undergoing a total knee arthroplasty. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does incorporating genicular nerve block and anterior femoral cutaneous nerve block to our current standard of care reduce patients' total opioid consumption in the first 24 hours after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) surgery? 2. Does incorporating genicular nerve block and anterior femoral cutaneous nerve block to our current standard of care reduce patients' worst numeric rating scale (NRS) pain score in the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU)? 3. Does incorporating genicular nerve block and anterior femoral cutaneous nerve block to our current standard of care result in earlier discharge from the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU)? 4. Does incorporating genicular nerve block and anterior femoral cutaneous nerve block to our current standard of care reduce patients' total opioid consumption in the first 7 days after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) surgery? 5. Does incorporating genicular nerve block and anterior femoral cutaneous nerve block to our current standard of care reduce patients' numerical rating scale (NRS) pain (both at rest and during movement) in the first 24 and 48 hours after surgery? Participants will be randomly assigned to receive the genicular nerve block and anterior femoral cutaneous nerve block in addition to standard of care (intervention group), or not receive the nerve blocks (control group). Comparing the intervention group to the control group, the researcher's primary outcomes are numerical pain in the post-anesthesia care unit and cumulative opioid consumption during the first 24 hours.
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate if different Enterra® device programming methods active during sleeping hours can maintain gastroparesis-related symptom relief and quality of life measures. Participants in this study with existing Enterra® devices will be randomly assigned to one of three programming methods that will be active during sleep. Participants will answer daily questions about their gastroparesis symptoms on an application with their phone/tablet. Participants will answer quality of life questionnaires about their gastroparesis symptoms at study visits. Participants will be involved in the study for up to six months after treatment assignment. Programming parameters in the study are within currently approved labeling.
This study plans to explore whether specially chosen relaxing music can help improve sleep, reduce stress, and prevent burnout in healthcare workers, many of whom are often sleep-deprived. The researchers will measure changes in brain activity, sleep patterns, and self-reported stress levels before, during, and after participants listen to this music. The novel approach includes using advanced brain scanning technology, sleep monitoring devices, and carefully selected music. Ultimately, the aim is to create a scientifically backed music intervention that can be used widely to help healthcare providers get better sleep and manage stress, potentially reducing burnout rates.
This study is an open-label, international, multi-center, Phase 1 study in adult patients with solid tumors likely to express CLDN18.2.
The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy, defined as improved range of motion and functional outcome scores, of early elbow motion in the early (immediately post-op) and late postoperative periods (2 week post-op).
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the feasibility of the Individualized Positive Psychosocial Interaction (IPPI) with 108 nursing home residents living with dementia and distress or depressive symptoms. The main questions it aims to answer are: •is it feasible to deliver the IPPI and track impact through data collected in the electronic medical records. Care partners will engage eligible residents in 2 brief preference-based IPPIs per week over the course of 6 months.
This project will develop and test the effects and mechanisms of a music improvisation training intervention on self-regulation of older adults with and without MCI. The investigator's overall hypothesis is that improvisation training will lead to improvements in self-regulation, compared to controls, and that improvisation training will be associated with specific changes in prefrontal brain networks and ultimately cognitive engagement.
