NCT04599855
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of each individual dose of esketamine nasal spray, 56 milligram (mg) and 84 mg, compared with placebo nasal spray in improving depressive symptoms in participants with treatment resistant depression (TRD), as assessed by the change from baseline in the Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) total score from Day 1 (prerandomization) to the end of the 4 week double-blind treatment phase (Day 28).
NCT05310071

NCT06805877
Scale-up of HIV preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is a key strategy of the U.S. initiative to end the HIV epidemic, but healthcare providers lack tools to support PrEP discussions and prescribing for patients likely to benefit. This research will evaluate whether integrating automated tools into electronic health records to help providers efficiently and equitably identify potential candidates for PrEP, discuss PrEP, and prescribe PrEP can improve PrEP initiation and persistence in safety-net community health centers. It will achieve this by conducting a stepped-wedge trial of a decision support tool with an embedded HIV prediction model to identify patients likely to benefit from PrEP. The intervention will be delivered to healthcare providers in 16 community health centers within the national OCHIN network.
NCT04095039
HiLo will be a pragmatic, open-label, multicenter, clinical trial with individual level randomization of \~4400 patients with ESRD undergoing in-center maintenance hemodialysis at 120-150 units maintained by two dialysis organizations that care for a substantial proportion of the US dialysis population. The 1st objective of HiLo is to test the following primary and secondary hypotheses of HiLo: Primary hypothesis: Compared to the current standard approach of targeting serum phosphate levels of \<5.5 mg/dl, less stringent control of serum phosphate to target levels of ≥6.5 mg/dl will yield a reduction in the hierarchical composite outcome of time to all-cause mortality and all-cause hospitalization among patients with ESRD undergoing hemodialysis. Secondary hypothesis: The main secondary hypotheses are that less stringent control of serum phosphate will reduce risk of all-cause mortality as well as the risk of all-cause hospitalization (individually) compared to the current standard approach of strict phosphate control (superiority analysis). In addition, the trial will test the secondary hypotheses that less stringent control of serum phosphate will result in increased serum albumin and protein catabolic rate (PCR), as markers of diet and nutrition. The 2nd objective of HiLo is to conduct a second-generation pragmatic clinical trial in dialysis. In partnership with two dialysis provider organizations, demonstrate the following for a trial embedded in clinical care delivery: 1. Feasibility of obtaining informed consent using electronic devices (e-consent) 2. Use of a single IRB of record for hundreds of dialysis facilities 3. Successful implementation of a trial-driven treatment algorithm by dietitians at the participating dialysis units 4. Harmonization of data from a large for-profit dialysis provider and an academically-owned small dialysis provider 5. Effective monitoring of trial implementation using a centralized approach
NCT05774041
The purpose of the study is to determine if using SIS System for DBS planning results in less distance between the planned target location and the actual implanted lead location than DBS planning without SIS System.
NCT03170518
The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of canagliflozin relative to placebo on glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) after 26 weeks of treatment, and to assess the overall safety and tolerability of canagliflozin.
NCT06242925
The goal of this multicenter, prospective Cohort Interventional study is to perform a pilot study of the AbCLO (Abdominal Wall Closure) device in patients with Open Abdomen. The main question it aims to answer is: • Does the Abdominal Wall Closure Device (AbCLO) increase the likelihood of primary facial closure in cases of open abdomen when compared to historical controls? Participants will be cases of open abdomen who underwent emergency surgery for Trauma or Acute Care Surgery, will have the AbCLO device. These will be compared to historical controls managed at the same center.
NCT02388906
The purpose of this study is to determine whether nivolumab is better than ipilimumab to prevent recurrence of melanoma.
NCT01353547
The purpose of the research study is to identify the genetic, environmental and immune profiles that may increase a person's risk of developing multiple sclerosis (MS). While MS is not a disease caused by a single variation in genetic material (DNA), a single environmental factor, or a single malfunction in immune cells, there are genetic alterations, environmental exposures and immunologic factors that make the development of MS more likely. Obtaining information about who is at risk for MS will be beneficial in the future if the investigators can identify effective ways to prevent or slow down the progression of this disease.
NCT05899166
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effects of a ketogenic diet on the progression and control of type 1 diabetes in children with newly diagnosed diabetes. The main questions to answer are: * Does a ketogenic diet prolong the honeymoon period of type 1 diabetes? * Does a ketogenic diet improve diabetes control? * Is a ketogenic diet safe, acceptable and sustainable in children with newly diagnosed diabetes? * What are the microbiome, inflammatory and metabolic changes linking diet to β-cell function? Participants will receive a combination of free meals, groceries, micronutrient supplements, and intensive diet and diabetes education for 9 months. * Diabetes care devices will be connected for cloud-based data collection. * Bi-weekly data downloads and remote check-ins will assess dietary intake, satisfaction with diet and study procedures, and possible safety concerns. * During four study visits held at at baseline, 1, 5, and 9 months, an intravenous catheter (IV) will be placed for collection of 5 blood samples before and up to 2 hours after a liquid test meal (protein shake) to assess insulin response. A stool sample will also be collected to assess microbiome changes. * Children and their caregivers may be invited to participate in a semi-structured interview, and online questionnaires to assess their experience with the diet and diabetes care, general well-being and quality of life. * Children and their caregivers may be invited to participate in a follow-up visit to evaluate long-term effects after 24 months. Comparison will be made between a ketogenic vs standard diet.

NCT03458832
The primary cause of facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD), a common adult-onset dystrophy, was recently discovered identifying targets for therapy. As multiple drug companies pursue treatments for FSHD, there is an urgent need to define the clinical trial strategies which will hasten drug development, including creating disease-relevant outcome measures and optimizing inclusion criteria. This proposal will develop two new outcome measures (FSHD-COM and EIM) and optimize eligibility criteria by testing 320 patients across 14 international sites over a period of 24 months.
NCT03571568
Phase 1/2a Clinical Trial of BI-1206, a Monoclonal Antibody to CD32b (FcyRIIB), in Combination with Rituximab with or without Acalabrutinib in Subjects with Indolent B-Cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma That has Relapsed or is Refractory to Rituximab
NCT05460832
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) affects 1 percent of the population worldwide and up to 40 percent of patients don't respond to current treatments. MBS2320, the drug being tested in this trial, represents a new approach to treating RA, with the potential not only to reduce levels of inflammation but to also directly prevent bone damage. The aim of this project is to test the safety, tolerability and efficacy of MBS2320 in patients with RA in combination with an existing treatment, methotrexate. Approximately 224 participants with moderate to severe active RA who have not responded to treatment with Methotrexate will be enrolled from around 45 to 55 sites around the world. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive 1 of 3 doses of MBS2320 (5 mg, 20 mg, or 40 mg) or placebo (a "dummy" drug). The maximum duration of study participation for a participant will be 22 weeks, which consists of a Screening Period of up to 4 weeks, Treatment Period of 12 weeks, and a Follow-up Period of 6 weeks. Participants on the study will be asked to attend the hospital or clinic for regular visits during which they will have planned study assessments to evaluate the effectiveness, tolerability and safety of the study drug.
