NCT01107626
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel and carboplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Bevacizumab may also stop the growth of non-small cell lung cancer by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Pemetrexed disodium may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known whether giving bevacizumab or pemetrexed disodium alone or in combination is more effective in treating non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying bevacizumab and pemetrexed disodium alone or in combination after induction therapy to see how well they work in treating patients with advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer.
NCT02580058

NCT05095272
Background: Malaria is caused by a parasite (a type of germ called P. vivax) that is carried by mosquitoes. The disease is transmitted to people when they are bitten by infected mosquitoes. To make drugs and vaccines for malaria, researchers need malaria-infected blood. Plasmodium vivax cell cultures are currently not cultured in vivo, and thus establishing a blood bank from P. vivax infections will be vital for future research. Objective: The goal of this study is to infect people with early-stage malaria, then collect infected blood samples to store in a cell bank for future use. Eligibility: Healthy adults ages 18-50 who will not be living alone during the study period. Design: Participants will be screened with a physical exam, heart health test, and medical history. They will have blood and urine tests. They will take a mental health survey. They must pass an exam to prove they understand the study. Participants will have red blood cells infected with P. vivax injected into an arm vein. They will be observed for side effects. They will get a thermometer to measure their temperature at home. For the next 3 days, they will be monitored via phone call or text. Starting on day 4 after the infection, they will have daily study visits to give blood samples. They will likely develop symptoms of malaria, such as fever, chills, headache, and muscle pain. Participants will be admitted to the hospital for 2-3 days when either they develop symptoms or the daily blood tests detect a certain amount of parasites. Once malaria is confirmed, a sample of their blood will be collected for the cell bank. Then they will be treated for malaria with oral medication that will cure the infection. Those who do not develop malaria will begin treatment after 15 days. Participants will have follow-up visits 28 and 90 days after infection. Participation will last for 3-5 months.
NCT05756192
The researchers will be conducting a prospective randomized trial where the researchers will be introducing an educational video to see whether there is an increase in knowledge scores surrounding cervical cancer, cervical cancer screening, and prevention with HPV vaccinations.
NCT05509712
Low physical activity levels contribute to African American men experiencing health disparities across a number of chronic diseases. Studies have been effective in increasing physical activity levels in African American men; but few have targeted maintenance of behavior change and none have utilized emerging technologies. The purpose of the current study is to further develop a mobile phone application for African American men that will help them initiate and maintain their physical activity levels.
NCT02193841
Simple bone cysts (SBCs) are cysts filled with fluid that occur most frequently in the long bones (arms or legs) of children. There are many ways to treat SBCs but it is unclear if one is better than another. The purpose of this research trial is to compare the effectiveness of two common treatments that are used by surgeons today.
NCT05054868
This study reviews if taking ketorolac, after a joint fusion procedure, can decrease the need for taking oxycodone (standard of care) for pain relief. The study also investigates if ketorolac affects bone healing after surgery.
NCT03393546
Pain is considered as one of the most important causal factors of behavioral and psychological symptoms in patients Alzheimer's disease and related disorders (ADRD). The investigators plan to examine the effectiveness of pain relief, pain sensory change and immune biomarkers change (measured by serum biomarkers) after the auricular point acupressure (APA). A waitlist will be used to examine the feasibility of a 4-week APA intervention. The investigators will also explore potential analgesic pathways and underpinnings of APA on pain relief.
NCT03619213
This is an international, multicentre, parallel-group, event-driven, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in HFpEF patients, evaluating the effect of dapagliflozin 10 mg versus placebo, given once daily in addition to background regional standard of care therapy, including treatments to control co-morbidities, in reducing the composite of CV death or heart failure events.
NCT03354273
This is a Phase 3, prospective, open-label, international, multicentre study of Flurpiridaz (18F) Injection for PET MPI in patients referred for ICA because of suspected CAD.
NCT00828009
RATIONALE: Vaccines may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Giving vaccine therapy together with bevacizumab after chemotherapy and radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying the side effects of giving BLP25 liposome vaccine together with bevacizumab after chemotherapy and radiation therapy in treating patients with newly diagnosed stage IIIA or stage IIIB non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be removed by surgery.
