NCT04755153
Hypertension affects 1 in every 3 adults in the US and contributes to 410,000 deaths annually. Hypertension and its associated complications disproportionately affect minority populations living in urban areas. In Chicago, health status indicators show worsening disparities between black and white residents, with the highest rates of hypertension, heart disease, and stroke clustering in the predominantly black South and West Sides. Kaiser Permanente demonstrated that a bundle of evidence-based interventions implemented within a large, integrated health system in Northern California significantly increased blood pressure control rates. However, it is unclear whether a health system centered intervention can be adapted to other settings, particularly under-resourced urban communities. Therefore, the overall goal is to support a community-centered design and adaptation of the Kaiser bundle. The investigative team will adapt the delivery model of the Kaiser bundle to be centered within churches within the South Side of Chicago, one of the most medically underserved communities in the United States. The proposed interventions are the same as in the Kaiser bundle (e.g., registry/audit and feedback, simplified treatment regimens, accurate Blood Pressure measurement) but implementation of the components of the bundle will be adapted for delivery in the community. The intervention will be carried out by local community health workers and ministry facilitators, with health clinics and hospitals in the community as support, all connected through a common data platform. Thus, the proposed project will identify the best strategies to support adoption, implementation with fidelity, and sustainability of the Kaiser bundle in the community setting. The proposed study will follow the Exploration, Preparation, Implementation and Sustainment (EPIS) process model and implementation is rigorously evaluated using a multimethod approach to the Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, and Maintenance (REAIM) evaluation framework. The specific aims are: Aim 1: Convene community stakeholders in order to adapt implementation strategies using the Dynamic Adaptation Process model. Aim 2: Design, implement, and evaluate pilot projects in order to optimize implementation strategies within the target community. Aim 3: Implement, test and evaluate an adapted implementation strategy to control hypertension through faith-based organizations in the South Side of Chicago. The study uses a hybrid Type 3 effectiveness-implementation design based within one primary community area (South Side Chicago) and in two settings (church and clinic). The overall study outcomes reach (implementation) and blood pressure (clinical effectiveness). Aim 4: Disseminate findings internally to community stakeholders and externally through creation of community implementation toolkits.
NCT05822583
COVID-19 can trigger a dysregulated immune response, and previous studies have shown that immune modulation can improve outcomes in hospitalized patients. This trial is designed to determine whether intensification of immune modulation early in the course of the disease (while patients are on low flow oxygen) with abatacept (active arm) combined with standard of care (SOC) improves recovery as compared with placebo + SOC (placebo arm). For both groups, intensification of immunomodulation will be provided as part of SOC in case of signs of disease progression (patient requires high flow nasal oxygen (HFNO) or more support) and/or if the patient has rapidly increasing oxygen requirement.
NCT07140939
A phase 3, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of CBL-514 injection for reducing abdominal subcutaneous fat.
NCT04486352
This is a Phase IB/II multi-cohort study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of targeted agents with or without cancer immune checkpoint therapy with atezolizumab in participant with recurrent and/or persistent endometrial cancer. The main protocol provides a platform for genomic screening with homogeneous basic eligibility criteria in order to direct study participants into biomarker-matched study cohorts consisting of testing targeted agents.
NCT04879849
In this study, adults with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and squamous-cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN) will be treated with TAK-676 and pembrolizumab following radiotherapy. The main aims of this study are to check if people are improving after treatment with TAK-676, getting side effects from these combined treatments, and how much TAK-676 people with these cancers can receive without getting unacceptable side effects from it. Participants will receive radiotherapy, then at least 40 hours later will receive pembrolizumab followed by TAK-676 slowly through a vein (infusion). Participants will receive an infusion of pembrolizumab at the same dose every 3 weeks. Different small groups of participants will receive lower to higher doses of TAK-676 on specific days of a 21-day cycle. This study will be happening at sites in North America.
NCT04998812
This study will evaluate the potential placental transfer of ocrelizumab in pregnant women with clinically isolated syndrome (CIS) or multiple sclerosis (MS) \[in line with the locally approved indications\] whose last dose of ocrelizumab was administered any time from 6 months before the last menstrual period (LMP) through to the first trimester (up to gestational week 13) of pregnancy, and the corresponding pharmacodynamic effects (B cell levels) in the infant.
NCT01758445
The purpose of this study is to look at the rates of acute and long term adverse events of postoperative proton radiotherapy for complex loco-regional irradiation in women with loco-regionally advanced breast cancer. This study specifically includes longitudinal follow up to assess the incidence of cardiac mortality and second malignant neoplasms at 10 and 15 years following proton therapy(PT).
NCT05194293
This phase II trial tests whether regorafenib and durvalumab work to shrink tumors in patients with high-risk liver cancer. Regorafenib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as durvalumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving regorafenib and durvalumab may work better in treating patients with high-risk liver cancer.
NCT05014568
This is a double-blind, randomized, vehicle controlled Phase 3 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of topical tapinarof cream, 1% compared to vehicle control cream in pediatric and adult subjects with atopic dermatitis.
NCT04274530
Psychological factors such as stress, distress, anxiety, depression, and poor coping strategies may be associated with ongoing pain following injuries such as fractures. To study this relationship, patients will undergo cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) which is designed to modify such thoughts with the goal of reducing ongoing pain and improving quality of life. The goal of this study is to determine if CBT, versus usual care, reduces the prevalence of moderate to severe persistent post-surgical pain (PPSP) over 12-months post-fracture in patients with an open or closed fracture of the appendicular skeleton, treated with internal fixation.
NCT05966740
The main research question of this study is to obtain further safety and effectiveness data on Pradaxa Pellets in children aged 3 months to less than 12 years in routine clinical practice setting.

NCT06571786
The Subharmonic Aided Pressure Estimation (SHAPE) technique is a noninvasive ultrasound-based imaging technique that can estimate ambient pressure using subharmonic emissions from ultrasound contrast agents. Ultrasound contrast agents are encapsulated microbubbles (mean diameter \< 8 µm) with a lipid, protein, or polymer shell that traverse the entire vasculature. When the contrast microbubbles are insonated with relatively high acoustic pressures (\>100-150 kPa), these microbubbles act as nonlinear oscillators yielding energy components in the received echo signals at frequencies ranging from the subharmonic (half of transmit frequency) to higher harmonics and even ultraharmonics. Based on empirical evidence, the subharmonic signal exhibits a sigmoidal relationship with incident acoustic pressure i.e., subharmonic signal can be divided into occurrence, growth and saturation stages. In the growth stage, the subharmonic signal has shown sensitivity to ambient pressure characterized by an inverse linear relationship between subharmonic signal and ambient pressure changes. This inverse linear relationship forms the basis for the SHAPE technique. Several pre-clinical and clinical studies have been conducted to utilize the SHAPE technique for in vivo pressure estimation e.g., to diagnose portal hypertension, to estimate intra-cardiac pressures and to determine interstitial fluid pressures. The core imaging mode underpinning the SHAPE technology (subharmonic imaging) is now available on some commercial scanners. In the proposed pilot study, the SHAPE technique will be leveraged for monitoring intracranial pressure (ICP). The use of SHAPE technique for the ophthalmic artery could potentially provide an accurate noninvasive method of measuring ICP in patients with idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) and other conditions of raised ICP, which would revolutionize the field.

The study will be conducted in 2 phases: feasibility assessment phase and clinical impact phase.
NCT05673083
The goal of this pilot study is to evaluate the impact of All4Cure enrollment on patients with multiple myeloma. The main question it aims to answer are: • Does All4Cure effect patient activation as assessed by the PAM-13 survey? Participants will be asked to: * fill out quarterly PAM-13 surveys through the All4Cure website to assess patient activation. * fill out monthly Patient Reported Outcome (PRO) surveys through the All4Cure website. * fill out a baseline and exit All4Cure surveys through the All4Cure website to assess patient perceptions of All4Cure at the beginning and the end of the study.
NCT06905275
This is a phase 1, first-in-human (FIH) trial for the combination of UVAX-1107 and UVAX-1197, both adjuvanted with 3M-052-AF + Aluminum Hydroxide Suspension (Alum). This means it is the first time this combination of study products is being tested in people. The purpose of this study is to see if the study products are safe, if people are able to take them without becoming too uncomfortable, and how a person's immune system responds to them (a person's immune system protects them from infections and disease). Twenty-five volunteers without HIV and in overall good health will be enrolled and be in this study for a little over 1 year (56 weeks) of clinic visits (about 12 visits), with a follow-up contact 1 year after the final injection to check on their health. Study procedures will include blood draws, injections, and the collection of white blood cells and cells from their lymph nodes.
NCT05282121
This study is open to adults with liver cirrhosis caused by hepatitis B, hepatitis C or nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). People can join this study if they have high blood pressure in the portal vein (main vessel going to the liver). The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called Avenciguat (BI 685509) taken alone or in combination with a medicine called empagliflozin helps people with this condition. Participants take Avenciguat (BI 685509) as tablets twice a day for 8 weeks. Half of the participants with NASH who also have type 2 diabetes take empagliflozin as tablets once a day in addition to Avenciguat (BI 685509). Participants are in the study for about 3 months. During this time, they visit the study site about 10 times. At 2 of the visits, the doctors check the pressure in a liver vein to see whether the treatment works. This is done with a catheter (a long thin tube) and gives information about the pressure in the portal vein. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.
