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 aims to compare the effectiveness of a regional anesthetic block vs systemic intravenous (IV) lidocaine in controlling post-operative pain in kidney transplantation patients. Regional anesthetic blocks and lidocaine infusions are effective alternatives to opioid medications and are already in use at many institutions. However, there has been no prospective study comparing their effectiveness when used in conjunction with the current standard of care patient controlled analgesia (PCA) pumps. This study is a prospective, randomized evaluation of both treatment methods.
Psoriasis is a chronic disease characterized by marked inflammation and thickening of the skin that results in thick, scaly skin plaques. This study assessed how safe and effective cedirogant (ABBV-157) was compared to placebo in adult participants with moderate to severe psoriasis. Efficacy and safety-related measurements assessed disease activity in participants with plaque psoriasis. Cedirogant (ABBV-157) is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of chronic plaque psoriasis. Participants were put into 1 of 4 groups, called treatment arms and each group received a different treatment. There was a 1 in 4 chance that participants were assigned to placebo. Participants received oral daily doses of cedirogant or placebo capsules for 16 weeks. There may have been a higher burden for participants in this study compared to usual standard of care. Participants attended regular visits per routine clinical practice. The effect of the treatment was checked by medical assessments, checking for side effects, and questionnaires.
This is an Interventional Study in Advanced Soft Tissue Sarcomas (ASTS). It is a Phase 1b, open-label, dose-escalation clinical study evaluating the safety of camsirubicin with prophylactic pegfilgrastim in the treatment of advanced soft tissue sarcomas. The objective of the study is to evaluate the safety of camsirubicin with prophylactic pegfilgrastim in the treatment of ASTS and determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of camsirubicin with prophylactic pegfilgrastim. The primary endpoint is the MTD (RP2D).The secondary endpoints are: safety profile of camsirubicin with prophylactic pegfilgrastim, PFS, TTP, ORR, DoR, OS and PK. As exploratory endpoint, Quality of life will be measured by using the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy: General (FACT-G).
This is a Phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of FlecIH-103 (flecainide acetate inhalation solution) compared with placebo in patients with recent-onset, symptomatic newly diagnosed or paroxysmal AF. Approximately 400 patients are expected to be enrolled in this study. Patients will be randomized 3:1 to receive FlecIH-103 at a total dose of up to 120 mg estimated total lung dose (eTLD) (n=300) or placebo inhalation solution (n=100). Randomization will be stratified by geographic region (US and ex-US) and duration of symptoms of the current AF episode (≥1 hour to ≤24 hours and >24 hours to ≤48 hours).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of MK-0482. There are 2 parts of this study. Part 1 is a dose escalation which will follow an accelerated titration design (ATD) for participants with relapsed/refractory (R/R) AML or CMML. Part 2 is a dose expansion for participants with R/R AML.
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) remains a leading cause of blindness in United States and can be broadly divided into two forms: non-neovascular AMD (NNVAMD) and neovascular AMD (NVAMD) AMD. Among the several mechanisms underlying AMD, hypoxia and oxidative stress have been implicated and cause upregulation of several signaling proteins. About 20% of patients with NNVAMD develop choroidal neovascularization and hence convert to NVAMD. Upregulation of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) plays a critical role in conversion from NNVAMD to NVAMD. Connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) is a polypeptide that has been shown to be overexpressed in various fibrotic disorders, suggesting its involvement in scarring. After the development of choroidal neovascularization, subretinal fibrosis may occur and result in permanent reduction of vision. An important question is, does CTGF contribute to subretinal fibrosis. An important first step in addressing this question is to determine if CTGF levels are increased in the eyes of patients with NVAMD and this is the objective of this study. The investigators plan to measure levels of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) in the aqueous humor of patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration and compare to controls. Levels of VEGF will be measured as a positive control.
A Double-Masked, Placebo-Controlled Study to Evaluate the Efficacy of Oral AKST4290 in Participants with Moderately Severe to Severe Diabetic Retinopathy (CAPRI).
The purpose of this study is to see if photos taken from home can accurately let physicians know the height, abdominal circumference, and wrist circumference of children, and how these measurements relate to in-person measurements.
This Phase 2 study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of monthly intravenous doses of IXT-m200 in treatment-seeking individuals with methamphetamine (METH) use disorder. The hypothesis are that following an initial relapse, IXT-m200 will reduce the occurrence of stimulant-positive saliva samples compared to placebo and improve the signs and symptoms of METH Use Disorder (MUD).
A novel prehabilitation method has been implemented at our institution to decrease perioperative outcome complications for frail complex spine fusion surgery patients. The goal of this randomized trial is to evaluate whether this prehabilitation program improves preoperative functional status of frail spine disease patients and benefits patients in their postsurgical outcomes.
