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 research study is to see if a specific type of radiation therapy, called "proton pulsed reduced dose rate" or "PRDR radiotherapy" has any benefits at dose levels and number of fractions thought to be acceptable in earlier research studies. The researchers want to find out what effects (good and bad) PRDR has on people with cancer in the brain called a "recurrent high-grade glioma" meaning that it grows fast, can spread quickly, and it has come back or gotten worse after being treated previously.
The primary objective of this single-arm pilot study is to investigate the effects of an encapsulated calcium butyrate dietary supplement on gastrointestinal (GI) health outcomes in healthy adults, including GI symptom severity (e.g., gas/flatulence and abdominal bloating), bowel habits (frequency and consistency), digestion-associated quality of life, and measures of GI permeability.
The goals of the proposed research are to first determine the minimal and/or optimal dose of a digital intervention required for cognitive enhancement, and then to examine the impact of several potential moderators of treatment effects (i.e., cognitive decline, AD polygenic hazard score, cardiovascular risk, and race/ethnicity). This knowledge gained from his high-impact study with transform the field of cognitive interventions, paving the way for a precision medicine model for cognitive enhancing interventions that improve quality of life for older adults and individuals with cognitive deficits at risk of developing dementia.
Intensive Patient Referral and Education Program prior to Renal Replacement Therapy (iPREP RRT) is a 12-week intervention that identifies hospitalized African Americans with advanced chronic kidney disease(CKD) and provides them with hospital- and community-based education, navigation and self-management support. Participants will be randomized to the iPREP RRT intervention versus enhanced usual care.
INTACT will utilize a group-randomized trial, to test the effectiveness of a culturally informed provider training and "dementia friendly clinic" intervention for detection and appropriate management of AI/AN patients with ADRD and MCI in 28 urban and rural clinics serving AI/ANs.
This study is to determine the long-term levels of CNTF, and the clinical safety and efficacy of the NT-501 implants with the Medica Hollow Fiber Membrane (MHFM) in participants with macular telangiectasia type 2.
Following radical cystectomy for bladder cancer, nearly two-thirds of patients experience a complication and almost a third are readmitted. Thus, intensified monitoring of this vulnerable group represents an opportunity for improved quality of care in the post-operative setting. By gathering biomarkers passively and continuously, wearable activity monitors augment remote patient monitoring. Further, they facilitate the collection of patient-reported outcomes frequently. Despite the proven impact of remote monitoring on patient care, there is limited data on the feasibility and impact of employing this technology to trigger real-time provider assessment following cystectomy. The investigators plan to conduct a randomized control trial examining such. The intervention group of participants will receive continuous biomarker monitoring via FitBits and daily patient-reported outcome assessments via connected smartphones. Abnormalities in remote data will trigger automated alerts to providers. Providers will respond in real-time to these alerts and patients will receive education materials discussing preventative measures to mitigate the main risk factors for readmissions. The investigators will evaluate the feasibility of integrating this technology into the post-operative period, as well as the impact of real-time provider attention to abnormal remote data on patient-reported outcomes and rates of readmission. The investigators hypothesize that early assessment of and intervention on remote abnormalities will promote the use of outpatient or reduced intensity therapies, such as oral antibiotics or oral hydration, thus curtailing the severity of patient symptoms, intensity of complications, and need for hospitalizations. Ultimately, this trial builds upon prior research, applying patient-centered technology to improve the quality of care following cystectomy.
To find the highest safe dose of ziftomenib that can be combined with venetoclax and azacitidine in pediatric participants with acute leukemia that has certain types of genetic mutations (changes).
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of a subcutaneous injection of nL-SAA1-01in a patient with AA Amyloidosis.
The purpose of this study is to work with patients diagnosed with end-stage liver disease to understand their perspectives on the Health at Home (H@H) Program, including desired outcomes and expectations, perceived barriers, and drivers. H@H is an emerging model of home-based care, designed to extend traditional, inpatient hospital care which may address these needs. Through H@H, acute medical care services as well as ancillary care such as rehabilitation therapy can be delivered in the home. The study is divided into three phases: Phase 1 occurs while the participant is an inpatient. Phase 2 is when the actual H@H program takes place as part of the participant's clinical care. The study team will not be involved in the Phase 2 - H@H program as it will be conducted by the clinical staff. Phase 3, at which point the participant enters a rehabilitation phase to transition the patient to self-management, involves a research jam session with the participant and caregiver to assess the value of the program.
