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 is an open label Comparative Effectiveness Research (CER) study in which patients will be randomized at the site level to Prospera surveillance or EMB surveillance in a 2:1 ratio (Prospera to EMB) at each site. Subjects will be enrolled into the study while under evaluation for heart transplantation or on the transplant waiting list prior to heart transplantation. All subjects will follow the center's standard of care surveillance schedule from transplant through 4 weeks post-transplantation. EMB during this phase is expected to occur roughly weekly or bi-weekly. Study group assignment will take place at randomization. Subjects will be randomized 30 days (± 10 days) post-transplant to Prospera surveillance versus EMB surveillance in a 2:1 ratio. Rejection surveillance (Prospera Group and EMB Group) will be performed at times corresponding to the institutional standard of care schedule for rejection surveillance.
This phase II trial tests how well tebentafusp works to shrink tumors prior to primary treatment with surgery or radiation in patients with uveal (eye) melanoma that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). Tebentafusp is a drug that binds to melanoma tumor cells as well as immune cells called T-cells. This binding causes an immune response against the melanoma cells, which leads to tumor cell death. Tebentafusp has been approved for the treatment of locally advanced and unresectable uveal melanoma. Giving tebentafusp before primary treatment with surgery or radiation may help shrink the tumor, prevent the disease from spreading, or reduce the likelihood that patients will require total eye removal (called enucleation).
This study is testing if the recommended dose of BTX-A51 is safe and tolerable in participants with liposarcoma. The name of the study drug used in this research study is: -BTX-A51 (a type of kinase inhibitor)
Rates of bacterial sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are rising globally, demanding innovative interventions beyond the scope of current efforts to prevent STIs. The United States Doxycycline Post-exposure Prophylaxis (DoxyPEP) Study has demonstrated the efficacy of doxycycline post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) among men who have sex with men and transgender women; but puzzlingly, doxycycline PEP was found ineffective in cisgender women in the Kenyan doxycycline Post-Exposure Prophylaxis (dPEP) study, with preliminary data suggesting the low medication adherence may explain the null result. By study end, the investigators will have developed adherence measurement methods for doxycycline in hair, blood, and urine, and will use these techniques to help interpret the Kenyan dPEP study, and to examine the relative performance of these methods within the United States DoxyPEP trial, establishing adherence metrics for current and future rollout studies of doxycycline post-exposure prophylaxis
It is well established that rehydration with a carbohydrate-electrolyte solution is more effective in comparison to plain water. This is primarily based on the sodium-glucose co transporter, based on which the world health organization has based its oral rehydration solution recommendations. Also, rehydration with a solution that includes sodium and glucose plasma osmolality should not drop as much as it happens during rehydration with water. As a result, we should have higher fluid intake due to higher thirst perception and lower urinary output due to higher levels of vasopressin. The present study aims to examine the effectiveness of a electrolyte-glucose drink on rehydration following exercise-induced dehydration.
The goal of this study is to assess feasibility and acceptability of a mindfulness-based intervention adapted for adolescents with migraine to inform a future randomized trial assessing effects of the intervention on headache-related outcomes.
Hypothesis: The investigators hypothesize that pulsatile FSH intravenous administration to women with obesity will correct the Reprometabolic Syndrome (RMS) luteal deficiency phenotype. Specific Aim: To test the hypothesis that pulsatile IV administration of FSH will rescue the impaired folliculogenesis and relative hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, characteristic of obesity. The investigators will accomplish this by administering a cycle of pulsatile FSH to women with obesity and comparing their hormone output to a cycle using conventional, daily FSH injection at the identical daily dose. The primary outcome will be luteal phase progesterone excretion.
This study explores the effect of the little cigars and cigarillos (LCC) warnings on youth who currently use, have ever used, or are susceptible to using LCCs, especially Black/African American youth. This study will inform the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) implementation of LCC warnings, which can reduce LCC use and lessen tobacco health disparities among youth.
This trial's main aims are to investigate the feasibility of implementing our novel assessment battery in tandem with normal and customary chiropractic care in a practice-based setting using a pediatric population with parent-reported SPD. More specifically, our primary endpoints are 1) recruitment rate, 2) tolerability, 3) adherence, 4) retention, 5) efficiency, and 6) data quality.
The purpose of this study is to measure the benefit of adding abemaciclib to the chemotherapy, temozolomide, for newly diagnosed high-grade glioma following radiotherapy. Your participation could last approximately 11 months and possibly longer depending upon how you and your tumor respond.
