NCT02020252
The purpose of this research study is to test a touchscreen computer program, which allows patients to see information on a computer screen regarding cancer care, and specifically clinical trials. The purpose of this research is to help the investigators learn more about how to use technology in the medical setting to improve health outcomes.
NCT01801007
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the MicroVention Flow Redirection Intraluminal Device (FRED) system when used in the treatment of wide-necked intracranial aneurysms.
NCT02371720
The purpose of this research study is to learn about ways to help children and adults with sickle cell disease who are taking the medication, hydroxyurea.
NCT03347851
The purpose of this pilot study is to obtain both near valve and downstream flow characteristics, using 3D transthoracic echocardiography and 4D flow MRI respectively, in an existing patient population at Northwestern Memorial Hospital, to determine the hinge washout characteristics and downstream flow patterns of the On-X valve and compared to competing designs.
NCT00346216
To answer the question of overall benefit: risk of celecoxib when compared to two most commonly prescribe traditional (non-selective) nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) in the treatment of arthritis pain. For this purpose, patients with osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis with or at risk of developing cardiovascular disease will be recruited. The cardiovascular, gastrointestinal and renal safety and symptomatic benefit in each treatment group will be assessed accordingly.
NCT00643318
The purpose of this study is to assess the short and long-term outcomes after CyberKnife stereotactic radiosurgery for early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in patients who are medically inoperable.
NCT00290901
This study investigates if Celebrex is as effective as tramadol hydrochloride (Ultram) for patients with chronic low back pain, when administered over a 6-week period.
NCT04240951
To determine the validity of a prototype patch in measuring sweating rate and sweat electrolyte concentration during moderate intensity exercise against well-established reference methods in a controlled laboratory and in field conditions.
NCT02498535
Prospective, randomized, placebo controlled, phase II clinical study of subjects crossing over from an approved inhaled antibiotic to inhaled nitric oxide as compared to a placebo control arm.
NCT03070951
The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate the superior efficacy versus placebo of OBE2109 alone and in combination with add-back therapy for the reduction of heavy menstrual bleeding associated with uterine fibroids in premenopausal women.
NCT00614744
This study is a randomized, placebo-controlled, clinical trial to evaluate whether induced whole-body hypothermia initiated between 6-24 hours of age and continued for 96 hours in infants ≥ 36 weeks gestational age with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy will reduce the incidence of death or disability at 18-22 months of age. The study will enroll 168 infants with signs of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy at 16 NICHD Neonatal Research Network sites, and randomly assign them to either receive hypothermia or participate in a non-cooled control group.
NCT02680535
To determine the efficacy of using MRI/US fusion imaging technology to direct focal ablation of prostate tissue using nanoparticle-directed laser irradiation.
NCT02642913
The purpose of this study is to test the safety of enzalutamide with or without sorafenib at different doses. Enzalutamide is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of advanced prostate cancer. Enzalutamide blocks a protein called the androgen receptor. Experiments on liver cancer cells and animal models show that blocking the androgen receptor causes liver cancer to stop growing. Enzalutamide has not been approved to treat liver cancer. The investigators want to see if enzalutamide is safe for patients with liver cancer who have had their tumors grow on sorafenib. The investigators also want to see how safe and effective sorafenib and enzalutamide are for liver cancer patients that have never been treated with sorafenib. This is the first time enzalutamide and sorafenib are being used together. This treatment may not help treat the participant's cancer.
NCT03106220
Skeletal muscle abnormalities (sarcopenia) and frailty are common complications seen in patients with end-stage liver disease. The presence of these complications portends poor prognosis. The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of a formal home based video strengthening program (REST) on sarcopenia and frailty. We also want to assess the impact of this exercise program on complication rates, hospitalization, on quality of life (QOL) and on survival.
NCT03933943
The main purpose of this study is to learn more about the safety of LY3361237 and any side effects that might be associated with it when given to participants with systemic lupus erythematosis (SLE). LY3361237 will be administered by injections just under the skin. The study will last up to 26 weeks and may include up to 17 visits to the study center.
NCT02284386
This is a Phase 4, multicenter, open-label study designed to characterize the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of total bupivacaine in approximately 15 adult subjects undergoing primary unilateral total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with bupivacaine hydrochloride (HCl) spinal nerve block (SNB) and EXPAREL local infiltration into the surgical site.
NCT01921309
To demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the Trinity™ BIOLOX delta™ Ceramic-on-Ceramic Total Hip System in comparison to the Trinity™ Acetabular Hip System,which is FDA cleared for use in the U.S. The comparison will be based upon clinical success at the Month 24 endpoint.
NCT01862536
The functional, social, and economic burden of chronic obstructive lung disease (COPD) on the healthcare system is extraordinary. COPD is the fourth leading cause of death in the United States, and some estimates attribute up to $33.2 billion in health care costs to COPD-associated morbidity and mortality annually. The burden of COPD to the VA Healthcare system parallels these findings. According to the VA HSR\&D Health Economics Resource Center, COPD ranks 5th among the 40 most common chronic clinical conditions in the U.S. Veteran patient population, is responsible for \>14,000 VA hospital admission annually, and increases by $1,051/patient the total annual health care cost burden on the VA Healthcare system. Importantly, COPD is associated with frequent emergency room visitation and/or hospitalization patients. Pulmonary hypertension is a common co-morbid condition that worsen morbidity and mortality in patients with COPD. This study will examine the potential for tadalafil, a phosphodiesterase type-5 (PDE-5) inhibitor to improve functional status by decreasing pulmonary hypertension. Results from this study are expected to define the potential use of PDE-5 inhibitors in COPD-induced pulmonary hypertension. If successful, this treatment option may improve quality of life and outcomes for the large number of Veterans afflicted with PH due to COPD.
NCT00623363
The purpose of this study is to obtain preliminary information on the effect of piclozotan on motor complications associated with Parkinson's Disease.
