NCT03998670
The objective of this short-term, pilot randomized trial comparing spectacles with relieving prism to spectacles without prism is to determine whether to proceed to a full-scale, longer-term randomized trial. This decision will be based primarily on assessing the initial (8-week) response to prism by comparing treatment groups on the following outcomes: * Mean distance intermittent exotropia (IXT) control score (the mean of 3 control scores) (primary outcome) * The proportion of participants demonstrating a "treatment response," defined as ≥1 point improvement in the mean distance IXT control score without spontaneous exotropia during control testing (secondary outcome) * The proportion of participants reporting adverse effects and good/excellent spectacle wear compliance
NCT04776161
Non-adherence to evidence-based prescription medications results in preventable morbidity and mortality for middle-aged and older adults. Taking medications intended for daily use, like those to prevent or treat chronic conditions, is a repetitive action that has great similarity with other behaviors that must be performed consistently, such as regular exercise, healthy eating, and hand washing. In these cases, people who act consistently do so out of habit. The "repetition-cue-reward" model proposes that habit formation has three central components: behavioral repetition, associated context cues, and rewards. This model has obvious applicability to the daily repetitive activity of medication-taking but has not been tested for this behavior nor adapted as an intervention for patients in real-world care settings. The goal of this pilot study is to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of using the repetition-cue-reward model of healthy habit formation to improve medication adherence in patients with arthritis and other rheumatic diseases.
NCT02292706
The primary objective of this registry study is to assess the durability of sustained virologic response (SVR) and clinical progression or regression of liver disease including the incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma following SVR in participants with cirrhosis after treatment with a sofosbuvir-based regimen for HCV infection.
NCT04007991
This study evaluates the effect of ecopipam tablets in children and adolescents in the treatment of Tourette's Syndrome (TS). Half of the participants will receive ecopipam tablets, while the other half will receive matching placebo tablets
NCT01678638
The purpose of this study is to determine whether early (before NICU discharge) or late (55-60 weeks post-menstrual age) inguinal hernia repair is safer for premature infants who have an inguinal hernia.
NCT01000753
This research study is collecting and storing tissue samples from patients with rare or cutaneous non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Collecting and storing samples of tissue from patients with cancer to test in the laboratory may help the study of cancer in the future.
NCT05875948
This study aims to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of R2R01 combined with terlipressin as compared to terlipressin alone in the treatment of patients with HRS-AKI
NCT00899990
This research study is collecting and storing samples of tumor tissue, bone marrow, and blood from patients with Ewing sarcoma. Collecting and storing samples of tumor tissue, bone marrow, and blood from patients with cancer to test in the laboratory may help the study of cancer in the future.
NCT00919269
The purpose of this study is to collect and store tumor tissue, blood, and bone marrow samples from patients with soft tissue sarcoma that will be tested in the laboratory. Collecting and storing samples of tumor tissue, blood, and bone marrow from patients to test in the laboratory may help the study of cancer.
NCT03611556
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and antitumor activity of oleclumab (MEDI9447) in combination with or without durvalumab plus chemotherapy in participants with metastatic pancreatic cancer.
NCT04211506
This study is designed to assess neurobehavioral performance, as well as genetic and other physiological changes associated with variations in timing and quantity of sleep.
NCT05748288
The Huntington Study Group currently holds the registered trademark for the Unified Huntington's Disease Rating Scale. The UHDRS® is a research tool which has been developed by the HSG to provide a uniform assessment of the clinical features and course of HD. The UHDRS® has undergone extensive reliability and validity testing and has been used as a major outcome measure by the HSG in controlled clinical trials. The purpose of this research study is to determine if a standard HD assessment (the UHDRS®) is as reliable when conducted virtually as it is when conducted at an in-person visit (vUHDRS)
NCT06056908
Shwachman-Diamond syndrome (SDS) is a genetic condition characterized by bone marrow failure, medical co-morbidities, and leukemia predisposition. SDS-Like patients share clinical features with SDS but lack mutations in known SDS genes. Since SDS/SDS-Like syndromes are rare diseases, data are sparse regarding the clinical features, natural history, clinical outcomes with current management, and treatment. For this reason, the SDS Registry was formed to collect clinical data from medical records and to bank biological samples with the goal of understanding SDS/SDS-Like diseases to develop better treatments and improve the health of patients with these conditions.
NCT02947802
This is an online survey assessing consumer support for different labeling policies related to sugar sweetened beverages. The investigators will present consumers with three labels that are being considered for sugar sweetened beverages: a calorie label, a text warning label that says "Warning drinking beverages with added sugar(s) can lead to health problems like obesity, diabetes and tooth decay" and a graphic warning label that includes graphic images to correspond with each of the health problems listed with the text warning. The investigators will ask participants their support for each label. The investigators will also see if support for the labels change after learning of the effectiveness of these labels. The investigators will share the results of a recent field study that suggested calorie and textual warning labels had no influence on the purchasing of sugar sweetened beverages while the graphic label decreased purchasing by 11 percent.
NCT04330482
The overall goal of this development project is to combine elements of two efficacious interventions into a mobile health (mHealth) App for informal dementia caregivers. The investigators will conduct a 3-month feasibility trial of the newly-developed CARE-Well App in 40 dementia caregivers to establish acceptability and feasibility of the intervention, study procedures, and outcome measures.
NCT04868214
The Perosphere Technologies' PoC Coagulometer measures clotting times of fresh whole blood samples. Clotting is initiated by glass surface activation and terminates on optical detection of fibrin assembly, the final step in the coagulation cascade. Since activation occurs at the top of the intrinsic pathway and detection occurs at the bottom of the final common pathway, the Perosphere Technologies' PoC Coagulometer has shown sensitivity to a broad range of drugs and reagents that affect blood clotting processes, including the Direct Oral Anticoagulants, DOACs (e.g. rivaroxaban, apixaban, and edoxaban), as well as the heparins (e.g. enoxaparin, a low molecular weight heparin, and unfractionated heparin). The purpose of the present study is to characterize the performance of the PoC Coagulometer measuring Clotting Time Controls, as well as fresh whole blood from both healthy volunteers and DOAC patients at three field testing sites.
NCT03745638
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of twice daily ruxolitinib cream in adolescents and adults with Atopic Dermatitis (AD).
NCT03650413
This study will evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of UTTR1147A in participants with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis (UC) or Crohn's disease (CD), enrolling up to 320 participants from the parent studies: Phase Ib Study GA29469 (NCT02749630) and Phase II Study GA39925 (NCT03558152).
NCT03788980
This study may determine the incidence of complications that occur after patients undergo a surgery called Carotid Endarterectomy (CEA), which is a surgery that aims to decrease the risk of strokes in patients with a condition called carotid stenosis. Medical records will be accessed to find any information pertaining to postoperative complications. Additionally, it may determine the cognitive dysfunction of patients undergoing CEA, assessed by Mini Mental Status Examination (MMSE).
