NCT03579641
The goal of the PREEMPT-HF study is to collect device and clinical event data to evaluate extended applications of the HeartLogic Heart Failure Diagnostic (HeartLogic) in a broad spectrum of heart failure patients with an implantable cardioverter defibrillator or cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillator. There are no primary safety and/or efficacy endpoints for this study. Heart failure is a complex clinical syndrome with high morbidity, mortality, and economic burden. Chronic Heart Failure is persistent, gradually progressive, and punctuated by episodes of acute worsening leading to hospitalizations. Therefore, there remains an unmet clinical need to slow the progression of Heart Failure and prevent hospitalizations. HeartLogic, available in Boston Scientific cardiac resynchronization therapy devices and defibrillators, combines novel sensor parameters such as heart sounds and respiration with other measurements like thoracic impedance, heart rate, and activity into a HeartLogic Index for the early detection of worsening Heart Failure. However, there is limited data on the association of HeartLogic with the risk of Hear Failure readmissions and tachyarrhythmias, or for phenotyping the broad spectrum of Heart Failure patients.
NCT03590457
Background: High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) is a non-invasive heated and humidified oxygen delivery device that is capable of delivering high-flow rates. It is a relatively new modality that has been introduced as an alternative to conventional oxygen therapy. The clinical value of the use of HFNC is not limited to its ventilation and oxygenation effects, it enables the patient to talk and is purported to permit oral feeding during oxygen therapy despite the limited evidence regarding its impact on swallow function. This study will determine the impact of different flow rates of a high-flow nasal cannula on spontaneous swallowing frequency at rest and swallowing effort and timing while swallowing. Methods: This is a prospective study designed to measure swallowing frequency and swallowing effort in fifty healthy adult volunteers. Participants will receive three levels of HFNC flow rates (30, 45, and 60 L/min) through nasal prongs. The study participants will be asked to swallow measured amounts of water and applesauce and subjected to each flow rate for 15 minutes. Swallowing effort measurement through surface electromyography (sEMG) will be recorded at baseline and the three levels of HFNC flow rates interventions.
NCT05061758
A phase 2 trial with LY3056480 in patients with stable SNHL
NCT03376633
The purpose of this study is: 1. To conduct a randomized controlled trial to evaluate the impact of Working on Womanhood (WOW), a school-based, trauma-informed counseling and clinical mentoring program for young women in Chicago, on PTSD, anxiety, depression. In addition, this study will examine the effect of WOW on other, secondary outcomes such as school discipline, GPA, high school graduation, and criminal justice involvement, risky behaviors, and other social-emotional learning outcomes. 2. To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of the WOW program.
NCT03704714
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of nivolumab and how well it works when giving together with combination chemotherapy in treating participants with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Drugs used in chemotherapy, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving nivolumab and combination chemotherapy may work better in treating participants with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
NCT04643886
This study is designed to investigate the safety, PK/PD, biomarker and early clinical effects of repeat GEM103 IVT injections.
NCT04214886
In this protocol, the investigators hypothesize that modifying the process of producing CAR+ T-cells can help to improve responses and reduce toxicities. Building on previous in vitro studies that have shown successful production of CAR+ T-cells using a new production approach, the investigators are now studying the ability to produce these CAR+ T-cells and determine how well they work in the clinical setting.
NCT04908488
The purpose of this study is to compare the clinical performance of PRECISION1™ for Astigmatism (P1fA) contact lenses with 1-DAY ACUVUE MOIST® for ASTIGMATISM (AMfA) contact lenses.
NCT03926169
The primary objective of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of risankizumab 180 mg and 360 mg versus placebo for the treatment of signs and symptoms of moderate to severe hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) in adult participants diagnosed for at least one year before the Baseline visit.
NCT02066415
To evaluate the effect of erenumab compared to placebo on the change from baseline in the number of monthly migraine days in adults with chronic migraine.
NCT00907296
The primary objective of this study is to investigate the effect of romosozumab compared with placebo on time to radiographic healing of fresh tibial diaphyseal fractures (fractures in the midsection of the shinbone).
NCT03977168
The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of earlier placement of Circumferential Pelvic Compression (CPC) on resuscitative measures required for life-threatening pelvic ring injuries and to guide the development of future efficacy trials of three advanced resuscitation techniques (surgical pelvic packing, angioembolization, REBOA).
NCT02021812
The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility of the use of the GORE® TAG® Thoracic Branch Endoprosthesis to treat aneurysms involving the proximal Descending Thoracic Aorta (DTA)
NCT05020730
Study PTM-001-01 is a 12-week, randomized, placebo controlled, double blind study with a 12 week open-label extension to examine the immunomodulatory activity of PTM-001 in participants with Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS). Participants will be randomized to receive PTM-001 (400 mg) or matching placebo every day for 12 weeks after which all participants will receive open-label PTM-001 400 mg daily for an additional 12 weeks. Randomization will be stratified by Hurley Stage.
NCT02451176
This study will compare the safety, efficacy and cost effectiveness of a permanent synthetic mesh versus a biologic prosthesis for the repair of ventral hernias in the setting of clean-contaminated (Class 2) or contaminated (Class 3) surgical procedures. The findings of this study will have a major impact on the field of hernia surgery as it will provide objective guide to mesh selection, optimize surgical approaches for complex ventral hernia repair, and ultimately significantly improve patient outcomes.
NCT04669548
The Accuryn Registry Study is an open-ended, global, multi-center, retrospective and prospective, single-arm data collection study with an FDA cleared device. The target population are cardiovascular surgery patients. Physiologic data measurements will be collected from enrolled subjects using electronic medical records and data streams via the Accuryn Monitoring System.
NCT02858895
This is a single-arm, open-label, multicenter study in approximately 52 adults with primary (de novo) GB that has recurred or progressed (first or second recurrence, including this recurrence) after treatment(s) including surgery and radiotherapy with or without chemotherapy and following discontinuation of any previous standard or investigational lines of therapy.
NCT04006964
The diagnosis of a lung function anomaly requires the evaluation of pulmonary function by spirometry. However, some patients (e.g. children, elderly, or diseased individuals) may have difficulty performing the related forced maximal respiratory maneuver correctly. Forced Oscillation Technique (FOT) measures lung impedance during tidal breathing, requiring minimal patient cooperation. The purpose of this study is to establish the diagnostic accuracy of FOT parameters alone or in combination with lung volumes in detecting lung function anomalies as compared with spirometry and with the diagnosis made by the physician.
NCT04331730
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of AKST4290 in combination with aflibercept injections in subjects with newly diagnosed neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD).
NCT01853163
The main objective was to prospectively explore the potential for long-term retention of Gadolinium (Gd) in bones in patients who have received a single dose of Gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCA) or multiple doses of the same GBCA, with moderate or severe renal impairment or stable normal renal function (eGFR \> 60 ml/min/1.73 m2) at the time of GBCA injection.
