NCT03643965
The overall aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of Nefecon 16 mg per day in the treatment of patients with primary IgAN (Immunoglobulin A nephropathy) at risk of progressing to end-stage renal disease (ESRD), despite maximum tolerated treatment with renin-angiotensin system (RAS) blockade using angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) or angiotensin II type I receptor blockers (ARBs).
NCT05273801
Monitoring heart rate during exercise can provide feedback to the patient and provider that the patient is exercising in the appropriate, individualized and safe range for them. This is particularly important in a group setting when multiple individuals are supervised by one provider. This study is interested in assessing the difference in intensity of care delivered when visual feedback of heart rate is provided compared to no visual feedback of heart rate in rehabilitation. Visual feedback of heart rate will be provided through Heart Zones, a platform which synthesizes multiple signals from externally worn heart rate monitors. This study is interested in better understanding the acceptability, feasibility and appropriateness of this technology when used in rehabilitation.
NCT02403323
This open-label extension and safety monitoring study is composed of two parts: Part 1 will evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of continued etrolizumab treatment in participants with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease who were previously enrolled in the etrolizumab Phase III Study GA29144 (NCT02394028) and who meet eligibility criteria for enrollment into Part 1. In Part 2, participants who have stopped etrolizumab treatment (either by exiting Part 1 of this study or by entering directly from Study GA29144 \[NCT02394028\]) will be monitored for 92 weeks for progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) and other safety events.

NCT05225337
Innovative lifestyle strategies to treat type 2 diabetes (T2DM) are critically needed. At present, daily calorie restriction (CR) is the main diet prescribed to patients with T2DM for weight loss. However, many patients find it difficult to adhere to CR because calorie intake must be vigilantly monitored every day. In light of these problems with CR, another approach that limits timing of food intake, instead of number of calories consumed, has been developed. This diet is called "time restricted eating" (TRE) and involves confining the period of food intake to 6-8 h per day. TRE allows individuals to self-select foods and eat ad libitum during a large part of the day, which greatly increases compliance to these protocols. Recent findings show that TRE is effective for weight loss and improved glycemic control in patients with obesity and prediabetes. However no long-term randomized controlled trial has examined whether TRE is safe and effective for patients with obesity and T2DM. This study is a 6-month randomized, controlled trial that aims to compare the effects of TRE (eating all food between 12:00 pm to 8:00 pm, without calorie counting), versus CR (25% energy restriction daily), and a control group eating over a period of 10 or more hours per day, on change in body weight (%), glycemic control, and cardiometabolic risk factors, in adults with obesity and T2DM.
NCT05463367
This study is designed to track brain functional changes in individuals with i) chronic back pain + opioid use (CBP+O) and individuals with ii) chronic back pain + opioid misuse disorder (CBP+mOUD) following a brief drug delay and re-exposure manipulation. Re-exposure could be placebo, the participant's own opioid dose, or a dopaminergic treatment (DA+NSAID). The participants will be also evaluated for changes in cognition, emotion, and motor abilities with opioid delay and re-exposure to placebo, opioid, or DA+NSAID.
NCT05625503
This study will be a randomized, single-blind, prospective trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intra-arterial (IA) Verapamil diluted with normal saline compared to undiluted IA Nicardipine during transradial access (TRA) for percutaneous coronary angiography. Patients who are 18 years or older and undergoing non-emergent percutaneous coronary angiography via TRA will be included. Patients who are non-English speaking, pregnant, or intubated will be excluded. Patients will be randomized to one of the two following groups: 1. Group 1 will receive IA Verapamil 5 mg (2mL) diluted with 8 mL of normal saline 2. Group 2 will receive IA Nicardipine 400 mcg (undiluted, 8 mL) The investigators will document the patient's level of discomfort on the Visual Analogue Scale 30 seconds before and after administration of IA Verapamil/Nicardipine. The investigators will also document the presence of radial artery spasms.
NCT00826280

NCT06681688
This is a multicenter, 2-arm, randomized, prospective study of patients slated for bilateral cataract extraction. One eye will be randomized to the Study Arm, and the fellow eye will be randomized to the Control Arm.
NCT02891161
This is an open label, multi-institutional, single arm study of a phase Ib study, followed by a phase II study of durvalumab with radiation therapy (RT) in patients with urothelial cancer (UC). No randomization or blinding is involved.
NCT03767595
The ProACT Post Approval Study is a 5-year prospective, open-label, multi-center study designed to evaluate the long-term incidence of urethral stricture and device erosion after ProACT implantation. In addition, the study will evaluate whether treatment with ProACT affects clinical outcomes after subsequent SUI therapies.
NCT06008678
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the automatic positive airway pressure (APAP) function of the RXiBreeze PAP System in adult subjects with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The main questions the study aims to answer are: 1. Is apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) detection using the RXiBreeze PAP System equivalent to apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) detection using PSG? 2. What is the responder rate using the RXiBreeze PAP System? Participants will use the APAP function of the RXiBreeze PAP System while undergoing polysomnography (PSG) for two separate nights in a sleep center. During each visit, participants will also complete two patient reported outcome questionnaires: * Epworth Sleepiness Score (ESS); and * Functional Outcomes of Sleep Questionnaire (FOSQ) short form.
NCT06074601
The goal of this observational study is to develop and validate cell-free RNA-based biomarkers for predicting a variety of adverse pregnancy outcomes in a pregnant person population. The main question it aims to answer are: 1. Can cell-free RNA-based biomarkers predict which pregnant people are at greatest risk of developing adverse pregnancy outcomes (e.g., preterm birth, preeclampsia)? 2. What is the performance of such biomarkers when predicting an adverse pregnancy outcome (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV, TPR)?
NCT03141788

NCT05927480
Traction pin placement is a common way to temporarily manage femur fractures and unstable acetabular fractures while awaiting surgery. Skeletal traction is thought to reduce patient discomfort by improving fracture alignment as well as relaxing muscle spasm pain felt from the broken bone by stretching out the leg. Skeletal traction may also help prevent articular surface damage in the hip by decreasing joint pressure. Despite the benefits of skeletal traction, insertion of the traction pin can be a painful and unpleasant experience for the patient. Our study hopes to see if listening to music with headphones during insertion of the traction pin decrease patient pain and anxiety.
NCT04093349
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of a single intravenous infusion of SPK-3006 in adults with clinically moderate, late-onset Pompe disease receiving enzyme replacement therapy (ERT). Participants will be treated in sequential, dose-level cohorts.
NCT04508335
The purpose of this study is to obtain preliminary data on the effectiveness, safety, function, comfort, and patient satisfaction with a novel vaginal pessary design for the use in women who suffer from symptoms of pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and have already opted for non-surgical management. Recruited patients will have Stage II POP or greater and will be current users of a Gellhorn or ring style pessary. Following enrollment, each subject will enter a 1-month wash out period in which they will continue using their current pessary so that baseline subjective and objective data can be collected. They will then be fit with a study pessary and enter a 3-month treatment phase. Comparative, subjective, and objective data will be collected at the conclusion of the study.
NCT03828318
After undergoing restorative proctectomy for rectal cancer, many patients are left with significant bowel dysfunction, known as Low Anterior Resection Syndrome (LARS). Increased LARS severity correlates with worse perceived global health status and quality of life (QoL). Among patients undergoing rectal resection with a permanent ostomy, there is evidence that supportive and educational interventions improve QoL, ostomy proficiency, self-efficacy and knowledge. However, evidence regarding the impact of such interventions in patients who undergo restorative proctectomy is lacking, despite the latter operation being far more frequently performed. The overall goal of this study is to evaluate the extent to which a LARS Patient-Centered Program impacts on patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) after restorative proctectomy for rectal cancer. This is a randomized-controlled muticenter trial that will include patients who have undergone restorative proctectomy for neoplastic disease (benign or malignant) located in the rectum (0-15cm from the anal verge) with a diverting ostomy and who are scheduled for ostomy closure.
