NCT07072039
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a serious lung condition that affects millions of people in the United States. Each year, it leads to about 150,000 deaths, nearly 900,000 emergency room visits, and 700,000 hospital stays. When COPD symptoms suddenly get worse-called an exacerbation-it can seriously harm a person's quality of life and often requires emergency care. Treating these flare-ups early can help prevent hospital visits, but right now, there aren't many good ways to make sure people get care quickly. Mobile Integrated Health (MIH) programs send specially trained paramedics, guided remotely by doctors, to care for patients in their homes. This approach could help people with COPD get faster, more effective care without needing to go to the hospital. In this project, the investigators are testing a new program called PEACE (Paramedic Evaluation for Acute COPD Exacerbation). The PEACE program sends community paramedics to patients' homes-when needed and in partnership with their regular doctors-to manage worsening COPD symptoms early. The study team will adapt the PEACE program to meet the needs of adults living at home with moderate to severe COPD, gather feedback from patients and healthcare providers, and run a small pilot study to see if the program is practical and helpful.
NCT03569449
Family Navigation (FN), an evidence-based care management strategy which is a promising intervention to help low income and minority families access timely mental health services. Despite significant evidence supporting the effectiveness of FN, concerns exist about the ability to disseminate FN to a broad population due to inefficiency and cost. The proposed study employs an innovative research methodology, the Multiphase Optimization STrategy (MOST), a framework for developing highly efficacious, efficient, scalable, and cost-effective interventions. The investigators will conduct a randomized experiment to assess the individual components of FN and identify which components and component levels have greatest effect on access to, and engagement in, diagnostic and treatment services for children with mental health disorders. This information then guides assembly of an optimized FN model that achieves the primary outcomes with least resource consumption and participant burden
NCT06056102
This research study is for people who have been waiting for a kidney transplant for at least one year, and who have a cPRA of 99.5% or higher. Having a cPRA of 99.5% or higher means that your immune system would reject 99.5% of kidneys available for transplant. The study will test whether new products called Chimeric Antigen Receptor T Cells (CAR T Cells), when given with chemotherapy, is safe and will reduce cPRA. The main study will last up to 2 years: Participants will have up to 30 clinic or hospital visits over a one-year period. If a transplant takes place, there will be 9 more visits after transplant. Long term follow up is required by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for 15 years after receiving CAR T cell. The primary objective is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of administering CART BCMA + huCART-19 following lymphodepletion, including determination of optimal tolerated regimen (OTR) and/or recommended phase 2 regimen, according to the incidence of dose limiting toxicity (DLT) in highly sensitized patients awaiting kidney transplant.
NCT06934239
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare patient-centered outcomes when screening digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) exams are interpreted with versus without a leading FDA-cleared artificial intelligence (AI) decision-support tool in real-world U.S. settings and to assess patients' and radiologists' perspectives on AI in medicine. The main question it aims to answer is: Does an FDA-cleared AI decision-support tool for digital tomosynthesis (DBT) improve screening outcomes in real world US clinical settings? This trial will include all interpreting radiologists and all adult patients undergoing screening mammography at any of the participating breast imaging facilities across 6 regional health systems (University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), University of California, San Diego (UCSD), University of Washington-Seattle, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Boston Medical Center, and University of Miami) during the trial period. All screening mammograms at these facilities will be randomized to either intervention (radiologist assisted by an AI decision support tool) versus usual care (radiologist alone) to see if interpreting these mammograms with the AI tool's assistance improves patient screening outcomes. We are targeting 400,000 screening exams across the participating health systems in this trial.
NCT05498181

NCT06206161
The goal of this clinical trial is to establish whether brief interventions for alcohol use can be delivered in schools for both indicated prevention and selected prevention, determine if an expanded workforce is an effective model for screening, brief intervention, and referral to treatment (SBIRT) delivery in schools, and explore whether brief intervention effectiveness is comparable in minoritized versus non-minoritized adolescents. Participants will be students at high schools across Massachusetts. High schools will be randomized to one of four intervention groups. Participants will complete a baseline survey prior to their school-wide screening for SBIRT, and then will complete four follow-up surveys over two years.
NCT05025787

NCT05144984
This study is looking at semaglutide in combination with a potential new medicine (NNC0480-0389) in people with type 2 diabetes. The study is being conducted to see how well semaglutide, in combination with different doses of NNC0480-0389, work to lower blood sugar levels. Results from this study will be used to select the doses of the two medicines for other studies. Participants will either get: Semaglutide (a medicine doctors can already prescribe for treatment of type 2 diabetes) in combination with NNC0480-0389 (a potential new medicine) or placebo (a 'dummy' medicine that looks like the medicines but without any medicine). NNC0480-0389 alone, or semaglutide alone which treatment participant get is decided by chance. Participant will need to take 2-3 injections once every week during the study. One injection will be with semaglutide or placebo and 1-2 injections will be with NNC0480-0389 or placebo. Participant must inject the study medicines themself into the stomach, thigh, or upper arm. The study will last for about 41weeks. Participant will have 20 clinic visits. Participant will have blood samples taken at all clinic visits. At 3 clinic visits, participant will also have an electrocardiogram (ECG). This is a test to check participants heart. Participant will have their eyes checked before or at the start of the study and at the end of the study. Women can only take part in the study if they are not able to become pregnant

NCT01081262
This randomized phase III trial studies carboplatin given together with paclitaxel with or without bevacizumab to see how well it works compared with oxaliplatin given together with capecitabine with or without bevacizumab as first-line therapy in treating patients with newly diagnosed stage II-IV, or recurrent (has come back) stage I epithelial ovarian or fallopian tube cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin, paclitaxel, oxaliplatin, and capecitabine, 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, may block tumor growth in different ways by targeting certain cells. It is not yet known which regimen of combination chemotherapy given together with or without bevacizumab is more effective in treating epithelial ovarian cancer or fallopian tube cancer.
