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 study investigates the feasibility of conducting a home-based reducing exercise sensitivity with exposure training (RESET) intervention among acute coronary syndrome (ACS) survivors. RESET is an at-home, 2 visit intervention that involves psychoeducation, a brief, low-to-moderate intensity walking session (i.e., interoceptive exposure), and interoceptive counseling, and is designed to reduce exercise sensitivity (i.e., fear of exercise sensations) and improve participation in exercise-based secondary-prevention guidelines (cardiac rehabilitation and physical activity). The primary purpose of this pilot study is to test the feasibility, acceptability, and appropriateness of recruiting and administering the RESET intervention in ACS patients.
This is an open-label, multi-center study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and anti-tumor activity of SNK01 in combination with AFM24 in subjects with advanced or metastatic EGFR-expressing cancers.
This was a study investigating RAD011 in participants diagnosed with Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS). The primary objective of the Phase 2 part of this study was to assess the safety and tolerability of multiple dose levels of RAD011 in order to select 1 or 2 dose level(s) for further evaluation in the Phase 3 part of the study. In Phase 3, the primary objective was to assess the effect of RAD011 on hyperphagia-related behavior in participants with PWS.
This is a prospective, single-arm, multicenter, non-interventional study of aducanumab-avwa as prescribed in the post-marketing setting in the US. Investigators will be prescribing aducanumab-avwa and participants will be treated according to the standard of care (SoC). Participants will be followed up to 5 years after enrollment and data will be collected at routine visits every 6 to 12 months.
This study seeks to address this gap by studying two Cabenuva delivery strategies conducted at six outpatient HIV clinics in Arkansas, a Southern state with a large population of rural, poor, and African-American residents. The two delivery strategies are clinic delivery and home delivery. In the clinic delivery study arm patients will receive Cabenuva injections at the clinic (50 patients), and in the home delivery study arm patients will receive the injections at home (50 patients). The study team will follow the patients in both study arms for 10 months. After 5 months, the patients will complete a treatment satisfaction survey, and after 10 months the study team will examine clinic records to assess their medication adherence. Secondary outcomes will include clinician perceptions of acceptability, feasibility, and appropriateness of Cabenuva delivery strategies. The study team will also collect qualitative data from patients and clinic employees to learn more in depth about their perceptions of Cabenuva, the delivery strategies, their implementation, and barriers and facilitators. Finally, the study team will estimate the costs associated with the two delivery strategies from the clinic and patient perspectives. The data from this study provide information on what delivery strategies for long acting HIV medications offer best results, how these strategies are perceived by patients and clinicians, and how costly and feasible the strategies are to implement in practice.
Most patients with acute COVID-19 (Coronavirus 19) recover within weeks, however a significant number of individuals will develop the post-acute COVID 19 syndrome (PASC). As of July 2021, the post COVID syndrome qualifies as a disability under the Americans with Disabilities Act. The symptoms which comprise this condition are highly variable and often extraordinarily debilitating. They may be distinct from the initial presentation or may mimic those which defined the initial infection. The post COVID syndrome can be diagnosed when symptoms persist longer than 3 months and may extend to beyond one year. There are risks for permanent levels of disability. Patients who seemingly did not have active COVID-19 symptoms in the days following infectious exposure may also develop post Covid syndromes. These syndromes are considered to constitute a distinct clinical entity which has of yet no clearly defined pathogenic mechanism or validated treatment algorithms. International investigative efforts are now underway to determine who might develop the post COVID syndrome, it's long term consequences and how best to treat its many problematic symptoms.
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the ventral intermediate nucleus of the thalamus (VIM) is an FDA approved treatment for medication refractory essential tremor (ET). However, VIM stimulation can be associated with impacts on speech and balance. There is also suggestion that there may be habituation to stimulation in more than half of these patients. Stimulation of the posterior subthalamic area (PSA) has been found to be beneficial in tremor control as well. In fact, there is thought that the improvement in tremor in standard VIM DBS stimulation may be related to stimulation effects on the PSA. Updates in DBS stimulation allow to stimulate more than one area of the brain independently, while using a single lead. In this study, we will recruit patient who are referred for VIM DBS to a randomized cross-over trial in which they will receive VIM, PSA, or dual stimulation. We will assess tremor qualitatively and quantitatively, in addition to evaluating side effects, including quantitative gait analysis on each setting. The pre-operative, operative, and initial programming evaluation will be performed per standard of care. After baseline assessment and initial programming, subjects will be evaluated in a blinded manner after they have been on each setting for 2 weeks. The entire duration of the study from baseline visit through final study visit will be 17 weeks. For subjects who are clinically evaluated in our outpatient clinics, we will review their charts at 6 months for stimulation parameters and clinical information as it relates to their tremor.
This study will follow participants with a disease which is associated with an absence or deficiency in Complement Factor I (CFI) as confirmed in the CFI-001 screening study.
Exercise-induced arterial hypoxemia (EIAH), a reduced amount of oxygen in the arterial blood during exercise, has been observed in otherwise healthy, highly-trained endurance athletes during exercise at sea level. The extent of the arterial deoxygenation may be influenced by a histamine-mediated inflammatory response at the pulmonary capillary-alveolar membrane limiting oxygen diffusion. Moreover, while EIAH has been routinely explored in running and cycling, swimming is understudied despite potential mechanistic avenues which may put swimmers at further risk for EIAH. The purpose of this study is threefold: 1) to determine whether highly-trained swimmers experience EIAH during submaximal and maximal exercise, 2) to determine the extent to which histamine release influences oxyhemoglobin saturation during swimming exercise, and 3) to determine whether cetirizine HCl (CH), an H1-receptor competitive inhibitor, can improve oxyhemoglobin saturation during submaximal and maximal swimming exercise. Twenty-four (12 men, 12 women) highly-trained swimmers will complete an intense swimming protocol to assess the histamine response to intense exercise. A subset with the highest histamine responses will participate in three additional sessions (placebo, NS, and CH conditions) which will include a swimming aerobic capacity test and 5-minutes of swimming at both 70 and 85% of their maximal oxygen uptake.
BT-001 is a software program intended to help patients with type 2 diabetes, under the guidance of their physician, improve glycemic control (i.e., levels of blood sugar). The BT-001 software delivers a type of behavioral therapy to patients via a mobile application that targets behaviors related to achieving glycemic control. The effectiveness of BT-001 will be measured by its ability to help patients reduce Hemoglobin A1c, or HbA1c (a marker in the blood that measures blood sugar) in patients with type 2 diabetes.
