NCT02891837
The purpose of this study is to determine whether L-citrulline is effective and safe in the prevention of clinical sequelae of Acute Lung Injury in pediatric subjects undergoing surgery for congenital heart defects.
NCT03122691
This research is being done to measure the effects of both oral and vaporized cannabis (marijuana), at different doses, on the ability to perform certain tasks such as balancing, eye tracking, and computerized measures of memory and attention, as well as performance on a novel app (DRUID) that is being developed for field sobriety testing. The investigators will collect biological fluids (urine, blood, saliva/spit) after cannabis is eaten or vaporized to see if there are markers in those fluids that can predict performance on the behavioral tasks and the DRUID App. The results of this study will help us better understand the effects of using cannabis, and to help identify behaviors and/or substances in the body that relate to cannabis impairment.
NCT01086540
Systemic sclerosis-associated pulmonary arterial hypertension (SSc-PAH) is a serious, life-threatening manifestation of systemic sclerosis (SSc), an autoimmune disease of the connective tissue characterized by scarring (fibrosis) and atrophy of the skin, joints and tendons, skeletal muscles, and internal organs, and immunological disturbances. One-year survival for patients with SSc-PAH ranges from 50-81%. There is currently no cure for SSc-PAH and treatment is limited to vasodilator therapy used in all forms of PAH. In recent studies, immunotherapy was shown to be effective in treating SSc-interstitial lung disease, another serious, life-threatening manifestation of SSc. In addition, there are compelling pre-clinical data and anecdotal clinical reports that suggest modulation of the immune system may be an effective strategy for treating SSc-PAH. To test this approach, this trial will determine if rituximab, an immunotherapy, has a marked beneficial effect on clinical disease progression, with minimal toxicity, in patients with SSc-PAH when compared to placebo.
NCT02921269
This phase II trial studies how well atezolizumab and bevacizumab work in treating patients with cervical cancer that has come back, remains despite treatment, or has spread to other places in the body. Monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab and bevacizumab, may shrink tumor cell and interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.
NCT04504773
Anxiety is a common and impairing problem for children. The principle treatment for pediatric anxiety involves facing a child's fears in a stepwise approach through a therapeutic exercise called exposures. While exposures are effective, some feared situations cannot be confronted in a clinician's office (e.g., heights, public speaking, storms). This poses a logistical challenge in treatment that: (1) takes time away from patient care, (2) leads clinicians to rely on imagined exposures, and/or (3) requires families to complete exposures outside of the therapy visits. This creates a burden for clinicians and families, and impedes treatment success. Immersive virtual reality (VR) presents an innovative solution that allows children to face fears without leaving the clinician's office. While VR has been used to distract children during painful medical procedures, it has not been well examined as a primary treatment for pediatric anxiety. This study proposes to examine the effectiveness and acceptability of using immersive VR exposures to treat children and adolescents with specific phobias.
NCT03038100
This is a Phase III, global, double-blind, 2-arm randomized study designed to compare the efficacy and safety of atezolizumab + paclitaxel + carboplatin + bevacizumab versus placebo + paclitaxel + carboplatin + bevacizumab. Study participants will have Stage 3 or 4 ovarian cancer (OC), fallopian tube cancer (FTC), or primary peritoneal cancer (PPC) with macroscopic residual disease postoperatively (i.e., after primary tumor reductive surgery) or who will undergo neoadjuvant therapy followed by interval surgery.
NCT05067114
The aim of this demonstration project is to create an additional access point in the community at local pharmacies for atrial fibrillation screening, detection, and referral to physicians for follow-up and initiation of evidence-based therapy when appropriate.
NCT01789346
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the 532nm potassium titanyl phosphate (KTP) laser in comparison with the 595nm pulsed-dye laser (PDL) for the treatment of fresh surgical scars.
NCT03755765
The focus of the study is to better understand the mechanisms causing antibiotic-associated diarrhea (AAD) and how probiotics may prevent some of the iatrogenic effects of antibiotic medications. One of the most common indications for probiotics is for prevention of antibiotic-associated diarrhea. Clinically, different probiotic strains have demonstrated the ability to prevent AAD; however, the mechanism of action behind this effect has not been elucidated. Data from several studies suggest that antibiotic-induced disruption of commensal bacteria in the colon results in a significant (up to 50%) reduction in short chain fatty acid (SCFA) production and a concomitant reduction in Na-dependent fluid absorption resulting in AAD. Probiotics have been shown to ameliorate a variety of gastrointestinal disease states and thus, the study investigators hypothesize that administration of a probiotic yogurt will protect against the development of AAD.
NCT04421508
A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to assess the efficacy and safety of pulsed inhaled iNO compared to placebo in subjects with COVID-19.
NCT01818492
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability and efficacy of a new drug aimed at controlling disease activity in patients diagnosed with primary haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis. The new drug can be administered as the first-line therapy, to patients not previously treated with the current standard of care, or can be given to patients who have either failed or were unable to tolerate the current standard of care. Administration will be on top of a glucocorticosteroid, which is usually part of the current recommended treatment.
NCT03589651
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, preliminary evidence of clinical activity, and recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of INCMGA00012 in combination with other agents that may improve the therapeutic efficacy of anti-PD-1 monotherapy.
NCT01938001
This double-blind randomized, parallel group study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of lenalidomide (Revlimid, CC-5013) in combination with rituximab (MabThera/Rituxan) in patients with relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma or marginal zone lymphoma. Patients will be randomized to receive either lenalidomide or placebo for twelve 28-day cycles in combination with rituximab. Anticipated time on study treatment is 1 year.
NCT02188147
The purpose of this study is to conduct an observational investigation of a novel care path used to manage emergency department (ED) presenting syncope patients on an outpatient basis.
NCT03167606
The proposed MyPEEPS Mobile intervention is a novel and evidence-driven intervention using mobile technology to deliver HIV prevention information specifically developed for at-risk young men who have sex with men (YMSM). This will be the one of the first studies to test the efficacy of a scaled-up, mobile version of an existing human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) prevention intervention originally developed for, designed by, and piloted for, a diverse group of YMSM. MyPEEPS Mobile will be tested in an randomized controlled trial with racially and ethnically diverse HIV-negative or unknown status YMSM aged 13-18 at four geographically diverse sites: Birmingham, Chicago, New York City, and Seattle, allowing for increased generalizability of findings.
NCT02314156
This randomized trial studies transdermal or oral telapristone acetate in treating patients undergoing surgery to remove the breast (mastectomy). Telapristone acetate may help prevent breast cancer from forming in premenopausal women. Giving telapristone acetate transdermally may be safer and have fewer side effects than oral administration.
NCT04747977
To assess the efficacy and safety of OTX-DED for the short-term treatment of signs and symptoms of dry eye disease.
