NCT00805948
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of the Talent Thoracic Stent Graft System for treatment of descending thoracic aneurysms (DTA)following U.S. market approval.
NCT02743793
Antirejection medicines, also known as immunosuppressive drugs, are prescribed to organ transplant recipients to prevent their bodies from rejecting the new organ. Some organ transplant recipients can stop taking anti-rejection medicines without rejecting their transplanted organ (this is called 'tolerance'). The purpose of this study will collect samples and data from 'tolerant' liver or kidney transplant recipients in order to find out: The purpose of this study is to collect samples and data in order to find out: * How long liver or kidney transplant recipients can remain tolerant; * What happens in the tolerant recipient's body over time; and * If there are patterns in the body that are linked to tolerance.
NCT02508389
The purpose of the phase 2, GT-201 clinical study is to determine if GC4419 administered prior to intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) reduces the incidence, duration, and severity of radiation induced oral mucositis in patients who have been diagnosed with locally advanced, non-metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck.
NCT03312192
The purpose of this study is to compare the clinical results between two different techniques for ACDF: 1. Stand-alone ACDF, which means the placement of an interbody device (cage) without anterior fixation or plating; 2. ACDF with and interbody cage and anterior plating for fixation. Both of these procedures are commonly performed at Rush with unclear advantage of one procedure over the other. Both have been associated with good to excellent clinical outcomes. The devices used in this study are approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
NCT04542915
As dental practices reopen their practices during a global pandemic, the risk of 2019 novel coronavirus (COVID-19) infection that dental hygienists face in providing dental care remains unknown. Estimating the occupational risk of COVID-19, and producing evidence on the types of infection control practices and dental practices that may affect COVID-19 risk, is therefore imperative. These findings could be used to describe the prevalence and incidence of COVID-19 among dental hygienists, determine what infection control steps dental hygienists take over time, describe dental hygienists' employment during the COVID-19 pandemic, and estimate whether infection control adherence in dental practice is related to COVID-19 incidence.
NCT02423330
This clinical trial will evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Strattice-LIFT procedure to treat anal fistulas.
NCT00424242
RATIONALE: Pemetrexed disodium may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Studying samples of cerebrospinal fluid and blood from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn how pemetrexed disodium works in the body and identify biomarkers related to cancer. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying the side effects and how well pemetrexed disodium works in treating patients with leptomeningeal metastases.
NCT02435992
The purpose of this study is to determine whether RPC1063 is effective in the treatment of Ulcerative Colitis (UC).
NCT02655822
This is a phase 1/1b open-label, multicenter, dose-selection study of ciforadenant, an oral small molecule targeting the adenosine-A2A receptor on T-lymphocytes and other cells of the immune system. This trial will study the safety, tolerability, and anti-tumor activity of ciforadenant as a single agent and in combination with atezolizumab, a PD-L1 inhibitor against various solid tumors. Ciforadenant blocks adenosine from binding to the A2A receptor. Adenosine suppresses the anti-tumor activity of T cells and other immune cells.
NCT00157079
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of Immune Globulin Intravenous (Human), 10% (IGIV 10%) in subjects with primary immunodeficiency disorders.
NCT02165215
This Phase III, randomized, double-blind, parallel-grouped, placebo-controlled, multicenter study will investigate the efficacy and safety of etrolizumab in maintenance of remission in participants with moderately to severely active UC who are naive to TNF inhibitors and refractory to or intolerant of prior immunosuppressant and/or corticosteroid treatment.
NCT03339297
This is a study comparing the defibrotide prophylaxis arm vs standard of care arm for the prevention of aGvHD.
NCT02835846
This purpose of this study is to understand the types of bacteria that are in the bladder and vagina in patients with overactive bladder (OAB) symptoms and understand if the types of bacteria change when with the use of estrogen in the vagina. The investigators are also trying to understand how estrogen influences the body's ability to make substances called peptides that can kill bacteria.
NCT03783702
Given the ongoing national opioid epidemic, an increased interest has developed in optimizing opioid prescribing practices of physicians, including otolaryngologists. Endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) is one of the most commonly performed surgeries by otolaryngologists with over 250,000 ESS's performed annually in the U.S. Multiple studies have shown that, compared to the amount patients actually consume, otolaryngologists prescribe a high quantity of opioids to patients recovering from ESS). It has been shown that these excess opioid medications contribute to prolonged use or abuse by the patient, family members, or friends. The purpose of this study is to better understand the pain management requirements of patients who undergo ESS for recurrent acute rhinosinusitis (RARS) or chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). This prospective, randomized, multi-institutional controlled trial will aim to determine the degree to which pain following ESS can be adequately controlled by non-opioid medications. It will also determine whether post-ESS narcotic use can be avoided entirely, or at least significantly limited. Patients will be randomized into two groups, each of which will receive a stepwise analgesic regimen consisting of acetaminophen and oxycodone or acetaminophen and ibuprofen. Pain will be assessed daily using visual analog scales (VAS) and the Brief Pain Inventory (BPI). The results of this study will help to develop a standardized approach to pain management in the post-ESS setting and help to elucidate the role of non-opioid pain medications. The ultimate goal would be to positively affect opioid prescribing patterns among surgeons who perform ESS in order to significantly reduce the quantity of opioids prescribed to patients while continuing to adequately manage patients' pain.
NCT00941486
The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of FST-100 (PVP-I 0.4% and dexamethasone 0.1%) Ophthalmic Suspension in the treatment of suspected acute adenoviral conjunctivitis.
NCT00764491
The purpose of this study was to collect data to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the OptiMesh 1500S to contain and reinforce bone graft materials in patients with Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) whose condition requires an interbody spinal fusion procedure combined with posterior fixation.
NCT03572062
The study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of up to 7 different RSV vaccine candidates, some with adjuvant, when administered concomitantly with seasonal inactivated influenza vaccine (SIIV) and may evaluate a second dose of RSV vaccine administered12 months after the initial dose. In addition the study will evaluate a 2-dose regimen administered 2 months apart to 62 subjects.
NCT02844439
This is a multicenter, Phase 2 study to assess the activity of tesevatinib in patients with recurrent glioblastoma.
NCT04152629
This study is a four-month, phase IV, open-label study of ADHD symptomatology and functional outcomes in pediatric (6 to 17 years old) and adult (≥18 years or older) patients with ADHD treated with FOQUEST or VYVANSE.
NCT04859777
This is a Phase 1/1b open-label, dose-escalation, and cohort expansion study with BID (tablet) oral dose of MPT-0118 in subjects with advanced or metastatic refractory solid tumors. The study will be conducted in 3 parts: * Part A: MPT-0118 dose-escalation * Part B: MPT-0118 dose-escalation in combination with pembrolizumab * Part C: Cohort expansion of MPT-0118 in combination with pembrolizumab
