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.
More than 17 million people have been infected and more than 677K lives have been lost since the COVID-19 pandemic. Unfortunately, there is neither an effective treatment nor is there a vaccination for this deadly virus. The moderate to severe COVID-19 patients suffer acute lung injury and need oxygen therapy, and even ventilators, to help them breathe. When a person gets a viral infection, certain body cells (inflammatory/immune cells) get activated and release a wide range of small molecules, also known as cytokines, to help combat the virus. But it is possible for the body to overreact to the virus and release an overabundance of cytokines, forming what is known as a "cytokine storm". When a cytokine storm is formed, these cytokines cause more damage to their own cells than to the invading COVID-19 that they're trying to fight. Recently, doctors and research scientists are becoming increasingly convinced that, in some cases, this is likely what is happening in the moderate to severe COVID-19 patients. The cytokine storm may be contributing to respiratory failure, which is the leading cause of mortality for severe COVID-19 patients. Therefore, being able to control the formation of cytokine storms will also help alleviate the symptoms and aid in the recovery of severe COVID-19 patients.
This pilot study will explore whether preoperative application of stool from the stoma bag to the perianal area will prevent/ decrease postoperative perianal maceration in pediatric ostomy closure patients. It will also explore the overall safety and feasibility of this pilot study for larger randomized control trials. There will be a control group and an intervention group. The intervention group will apply stool from the stoma bag approximately 4 weeks prior to ostomy closure and fill out a compliance log and upload pictures weekly to the MyCHP (My Children's Hospital) portal. A validated diaper dermatitis score will be utilized in this study.
This study is being done to evaluate glycemic control in participants with type 2 diabetes who are taking mealtime insulin LY900014 in combination with long-acting insulin glargine. Participants will use continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) (Freestyle Libre 14-day system) during the study.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of multiple intravenous infusions of S95011 compared to placebo in reducing disease activity in patients with primary Sjögren's syndrome.
The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of number of cigarillos per package on use behaviors, intensity of use and biomarkers of exposure.
The Study consists of 3 Parts: Part 1 (Single Ascending Dose/SAD), Part 2 (Multiple Ascending Dose/MAD), and Part 3 (Elderly). Part 1 will investigate the safety, tolerability and PK of single-ascending intravenous (IV) doses of RO7223280 in healthy participants. Part 2 will investigate the safety, tolerability and PK of multiple-ascending IV doses of RO7223280 in healthy participants. Part 2 will start after the initial completion of Part 1 (SAD). Progression from Part 1 to Part 2 will be based on a satisfactory review of all available safety, tolerability, and PK data by the Investigator and the Sponsor from Part 1. The starting dose for Part 2 will be administered as 1-hour IV infusion; as it has been established on the basis of all available safety, tolerability, and PK data in Part 1 (SAD). Part 3 will investigate the safety, tolerability and PK of a single IV dose of RO7223280 in healthy elderly participants. A single IV dose of RO7223280 administered over 1 hour was selected, within the range of previously explored doses in Part 1 (SAD).
This research is to develop a weight loss and weight maintenance program through dietary modifications for adults with obesity. Although scientific studies have shown the feasibility of rapid and safe dietary weight loss and subsequent weight maintenance, no efficacious dietary weight management program is widely available, and thus bariatric surgery remains the most reliable approach for weight loss/management. Safe and effective dietary weight loss and subsequent weight maintenance require flexible, individualized advice by an experienced dietitian/nutritionist.
