NCT03884608
The purpose of this registry is to prospectively assess outcomes of device-treated ventricular tachyarrhythmias and all-cause mortality in non-ischemic cardiomyopathy patients indicated for ICD or CRT-D implantation for the primary prevention of sudden cardiac death. Differences in outcomes will be evaluated by sex and by device type.
NCT05048186
This is a retrospective observational survey study. We will survey a sample of adult parents or legal guardians who have a child who has been diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and who discussed ADHD treatment options for their child with a health care provider within the last 2 years. The main goal is to gather evidence of the validity and reliability of the Shared Decision Making Process scale. Secondary goal is to gather evidence on the quality of decisions parents make about their children with ADHD. A third goal is to assess the impact of a Decision Aid on participant knowledge of ADHD treatment options. Participants will be randomized to one of two arms: participants in the intervention arm will review a Decision Aid (patient educational tool) partway through the survey and those in the control arm will not receive any educational materials. All participants will complete survey that includes the Shared Decision Making process survey along with a few other measures. A subset of respondents will also complete a retest survey about two weeks after the initial survey.
NCT04724759
This study aims is to evaluate the effect of opioid free total intravenous anesthesia on postoperative quality of recovery in patients undergoing oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMF) temporomandibular joint (TMJ) surgery.
NCT06698848
Subanesthetic dose of intravenous ketamine (KET) has been found to be highly effective in rapid treatment depression and associated suicidality but its exact mechanism of remains uncertain. This study will use a novel approach to elucidate KET's effects on the molecular/ gene expression pathways in living neurons obtained from the olfactory epithelium and correlate the changes to rapid improvement in depression via changes in the brain connectome. The study will identify the molecular targets and pathways involved in KET'S mechanism of rapid clinical action and pave the way for development of novel, more efficacious, and safer therapeutic agents.
NCT02409680
Available data suggest that low dose aspirin may be a safe, widely available and inexpensive intervention that may significantly reduce the risk of preterm birth. However, this possibility needs to be proven in a properly designed randomized controlled trial (RCT) with preterm birth as the primary outcome. Such a clinical trial in a racially, ethnically and geographically diverse population could best be accomplished by the established infrastructure of the Global Network for Women's and Children's Health Research (GN).
NCT02457936
Depression one of the leading causes of disability worldwide. Individuals suffering from depression typically exhibit impairments in various mental abilities, such as the ability to effectively direct and control attention and the ability to switch between thinking about different things and concepts (commonly referred to as "cognitive flexibility"). Mindfulness meditation training is a technique which involves focusing one's awareness on the present moment, while calmly acknowledging and accepting one's feelings, thoughts, and bodily sensations. It has been well documented to improve depressive symptoms and prevent recurrence of depressive episodes, yet little is known about how mindfulness does so and what are the underlying mental mechanisms involved. Here the investigators propose to examine the efficacy of an 8-week mindfulness training program in improving the ability to direct and control attention, as well as in cognitive flexibility. Individuals diagnosed with recurrent depression will undergo an 8-week mindfulness training program. Participants' depressive symptoms as well as their performance on measures of attention and cognitive flexibility will be examined. Participants will be assigned to mindfulness training or a wait-list control group. Half of the participants will be examined before and after the mindfulness training program and the other half will be tested 8-weeks apart and then begin their training.
NCT03582085
The investigators are doing this research study to explore whether the bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccine can be an effective treatment for fibromyalgia. The researchers believe that the BCG vaccine can benefit people with fibromyalgia by increasing immune signaling molecules, called cytokines. The Faustman Immunobiology Laboratory has previously studied BCG in long term type 1 diabetics, and found that BCG vaccinations showed a short and small pancreas effect of restored insulin secretion. Eligible volunteers will be vaccinated with BCG in repeat fashion over a period of three years or receive placebo treatment. The investigators hypothesize that these repeat injections of BCG will reduce symptom severity by increasing immune signaling cytokines.
NCT03393520
This study will be conducted to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of AVP-786 compared to placebo, for the treatment of agitation in participants with dementia of the Alzheimer's type.
NCT02412696
This study is testing the hypothesis of whether continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy improves placental histopathology and secretory function. The main aims of the study are to identify shared mechanisms between obstructive sleep apnea and preeclampsia, both common highly morbid conditions.
NCT03682536
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of luspatercept (ACE-536) compared to epoetin alfa on red blood cell (RBC) transfusion independence (for at least 12 weeks) with a concurrent hemoglobin increase of at least 1.5 g/dL in participants with anemia due to revised international prognostic scoring system (IPSS-R) very low, low, or intermediate risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) who require RBC transfusions and have never been exposed to erythropoiesis stimulating agent (ESA).
NCT03552276
A long term study to demonstrate the safety of Tildrakizumab in Subjects with Psoriatic Arthritis who Have Previously Completed Study with Tildrakizumab
NCT05004181
This trial consisted of three parts, Part A, Part B, and Part C, and evaluated the safety and immunogenicity of a third (booster) injection of the multivalent vaccine BNT162b2 (B.1.1.7 + B.1.617.2), and the safety and immunogenicity of a third booster injection of the monovalent vaccine BNT162b2 (B.1.617.2) or BNT162b2 (B.1.1.7), in participants who had received two doses of the parent vaccine BNT162b2 at 30 µg, at least 6 months after the second dose of BNT162b2. It also evaluated the safety and immunogenicity of a three-dose regimen of BNT162b2 (B.1.1.7 + B.1.617.2) in participants who had not received prior Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccination. In addition, the safety and immunogenicity of BNT162b2 (B.1.1.529.1) or BNT162b2 given as a third or fourth vaccine dose to RNA COVID-19 vaccine-experienced participants with history of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant infection was evaluated and contrasted with the natural immune response reached after infection with the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant in RNA COVID-19 vaccine-experienced participants.
NCT03515837
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pemetrexed plus platinum chemotherapy (carboplatin or cisplatin) with or without pembrolizumab (MK-3475; KEYTRUDA®) in the treatment of adults with the following types of tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI)-resistant, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated, metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tumors: 1) TKI-failures (including osimertinib \[TAGRISSO®\] failure) with T790M-negative mutation tumors, 2) T790M-positive mutation tumors with prior exposure to osimertinib, and 3) first-line osimertinib failure regardless of T790M mutation status. The primary study hypotheses are that the combination of pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy has superior efficacy compared to saline placebo plus chemotherapy in terms of: 1) Progression-free Survival (PFS) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) based on blinded independent central review, and 2) Overall Survival (OS). This study will be considered to have met its success criteria if the combination of pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy is superior to saline placebo plus chemotherapy in terms of PFS or OS. Upon study completion, participants are discontinued and may be enrolled in a pembrolizumab extension study, if available.
NCT03876457

NCT03529045
Multicenter global post-market registry of subjects diagnosed with drug resistant epilepsy and treated with the VNS Therapy System.
NCT04919499
This study is open to adults with diabetic macular ischemia who have received laser treatment. The main purpose of this study is to find out whether people with diabetic macular ischemia can tolerate a medicine called BI 765128. In this study, BI 765128 is given to people for the first time. The study has 2 parts. Part A tests 3 doses of BI 765128. Participants get either a low, medium or high dose of BI 765128 as a single injection into the eye. If participants tolerate it well, the highest dose will be used in part B. In part B, participants are put into 2 groups randomly, which means by chance. 1 group gets BI 765128 as injection into the eye. The other group gets sham injections. A sham injection means that it is not a real injection and contains no medicine. Participants cannot tell whether they get the real injection or a sham injection. In this part, participants receive study treatment once every month for 3 months. Participants in part A are in the study for about 4 months and visit the study site about 8 times. Participants in part B are in the study for about 5 months and visit the study site about 7 times. The doctors regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.
NCT06695832
Staphylococcus aureus bacteraemia is a frequent and life-threatening infection, despite current standard antibiotic monotherapy. This study aims to clarify the role of fosfomycin as an adjunctive therapy for improving outcomes in patients with this serious infection. Two clinical trials suggested that adjunctive fosfomycin therapy might offer a clinical benefit in certain cases, but the results are inconclusive. We aim to analyse pooled data from these trials in order to identify subgroups of patients that might benefit most from this therapy.
NCT01101906
