NCT04462406
This phase II trial investigates how well biomarkers on PET/CT imaging drive early discontinuation of anti-PD-1 therapy in patients with stage IIIB-IV melanoma that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). Anti-PD-1 therapy has become a standard therapy option for patients with unresectable melanoma. This trial is being done to determine if doctors can safely shorten the use of standard of care anti-PD1 therapy for melanoma by using biomarkers seen on PET/CT imaging and tumor biopsy.
NCT04629014
This study proposes to quantify and describe the quality of life of children with intestinal failure, and to identify the medical and socio-economic factors that impact this quality of life, using data from multiple multidisciplinary intestinal failure centers across the United States and Canada specializing in the care of these participants.
NCT06450041
This is a phase II study looking at patient response to treatment with the combination dinutuximab, temozolomide, irinotecan, and GM-CSF.
NCT05863195
This phase III trial compares hepatic arterial infusion (HAI) (pump chemotherapy) in addition to standard of care chemotherapy versus standard of care chemotherapy alone in treating patients with colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver (liver metastases) and cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). HAI uses a catheter to carry a tumor-killing chemotherapy drug called floxuridine directly into the liver. HAI is already approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in metastatic colorectal cancer to the liver, but it is only available at a small number of hospitals, and most of the time it is not used until standard chemotherapy stops working. Standard chemotherapy drugs work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Adding HAI to standard chemotherapy may be effective in shrinking or stabilizing unresectable colorectal liver metastases.
NCT07128615
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of two investigational vaccines, AZD4117 and AZD5315 to protect against certain strains of avian Influenza A (H5N1 and H7N9 subtypes).
NCT07487246
The purpose of this study is to improve pain management for participantswho need osmotic dilators for cervical preparation the day before their second trimester abortion procedure. Osmotic dilators are sticks that are inserted into the cervix. They soak up fluid and expand overnight, gently opening the cervix. We are studying an injection of ketorolac (a liquid anti-inflammatory medication similar to ibuprofen) combined with lidocaine (a liquid numbing medication), which is injected vaginally to the area surrounding the cervix. Ketorolac is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for intravenous (IV) and intramuscular injection and has been studied as a paracervical injection for participants having first trimester abortion procedures in the office. It has not previously been studied for osmotic dilator insertion.
NCT03091660
This randomized phase III trial studies Tokyo-172 strain bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) solution with or without a vaccination using Tokyo-172 strain BCG to see how well it works compared with TICE BCG solution in treating patients with bladder cancer that has not spread to muscle. BCG is a non-infectious bacteria that when instilled into the bladder may stimulate the immune system to fight bladder cancer. Giving different versions of BCG with vaccine therapy may prevent bladder cancer from returning.
NCT06945250
The informed consent process is an important part of any surgical and anesthetic intervention. It is also perhaps the most intellectually demanding portion of interacting with the healthcare system for patients. Competent patients have full autonomy over which treatments they receive, and making an informed choice about the decision to undergo a treatment requires at minimum a discussion of the proposed intervention, its risks and benefits, and alternatives to the proposed intervention. The objective is to improve the anesthesia informed consent process for patients undergoing elective Caesarean delivery through the use of a pre-recorded audiovisual presentation that discusses the logistical aspects of perioperative care and the risks and benefits of anesthesia which is provided to patients prior to meeting their anesthesiologist. The hypothesis is that the use of an audiovisual presentation which explains the purpose and nature of anesthesia for Caesarean delivery provided to the patient at least 24 hours prior to their procedure will result in a 10% increase in the effectiveness of risk communication and treatment decision making as measured by the Combined Outcome Measure for Risk Communication and Treatment Decision Making Effectiveness (COMRADE) tool.
NCT06996366
The goal of this randomized pilot study is to learn the impact of a primary care outreach intervention on the proportion of patients with Medicare insurance who are up-to-date on Medicare Annual Wellness Visit completion. At two clinics, researchers will randomize clinicians (and their associated, eligible patients) to early or delayed outreach.
NCT03737149
Post-market prospective, multi-center longitudinal study to determine if mobile application-guided education and exercise paired with accurate and sensitive activity monitoring, captured from consumer wearables, can provide a viable (and potentially improved) alternative to current standard of care physical therapy for hip and knee arthroplasty.
NCT03267433
This phase III trial studies rituximab after stem cell transplant and to see how well it works compared with rituximab alone in treating patients with in minimal residual disease-negative mantle cell lymphoma in first complete remission. Immunotherapy with rituximab, may induce changes in body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving chemotherapy before a stem cell transplant helps kill any cancer cells that are in the body and helps make room in the patient's bone marrow for new blood-forming cells (stem cells) to grow. After treatment, stem cells are collected from the patient's blood and stored. More chemotherapy is then given to prepare the bone marrow for the stem cell transplant. The stem cells are then returned to the patient to replace the blood-forming cells that were destroyed by the chemotherapy. Giving rituximab with or without stem cell transplant may work better in treating patients with mantle cell lymphoma.
NCT05161078
To date, little knowledge exists related to the use of hemodialysis (HD) in infants and has been limited to mainly single center studies. The CARPEDIEM (CArdio-Renal PEdiatric Dialysis Emergency Machine) device, which can be used to provide hemodialysis in infants, has been launched in the United States. This study/registry is designed to obtain data on critically ill infants who require HD using the CARPEDIEM device to understand the indications for initiation, best practice in prescribing and performing treatment, expected treatment course, and outcomes of a dedicated infant continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) machine.
NCT05184764
Phase 1b/2a, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Multiple Ascending Dose Escalation Study of the Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of Intravenous AP SA02 as an Adjunct to Best Available Antibiotic Therapy Compared to Best Available Antibiotic Therapy Alone for the Treatment of Adults With Bacteremia Due to Staphylococcus aureus
NCT05143840
This study is a multicenter Phase 2, non-randomized, open-label single-group frontline study administering asciminib in patients with newly diagnosed Chronic Myeloid Leukemia-Chronic Phase (CML-CP). The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of asciminib in newly diagnosed CML-CP. Patients will receive asciminib 80 mg orally once daily during the single asciminib phase. Response is determined by PCR (polymerase chain reaction) blood test during the study. Patients who have not achieved a response after 24 months (but no later than 36 months) of single agent asciminib will be offered the addition of a low dose tyrosine kinase inhibitor (low-TKI) namely dasatinib, imatinib, or nilotinib at the investigator's discretion. The following doses of the TKIs will be used: 1. Dasatinib 50 mg daily 2. Imatinib 300 mg daily 3. Nilotinib 300 mg daily Patients will discontinue study treatment if they experience disease progression, or unacceptable toxicity.
NCT03116139
Both, CT scans and VQ scans, are used by doctors to look for pulmonary embolism. The most common reason to order a VQ scan is to avoid the IV dye. The IV dye used for CT scans can cause kidney problems in some patients, called contrast-induced nephropathy or "CIN." This is a kidney problem that usually does not make patients feel any differently or change how they urinate. Most of the time, it can only be found by testing blood several days later. This kind of kidney problem can be very mild and some patients will never have any symptoms, rarely these problems can be severe. Some patients can also have similar kidney problems for many other reasons (reactions to medications, blood pressure problems, etc.) and can even happen in patients that do not get IV dye. That is why doctors are not sure exactly who will have these problems or if using a test that does not use IV dye can prevent this kidney problem. The VQ scan uses a different medication through the IV that is not IV dye and has not been linked to kidney problems. The purpose of this study is to learn if using the test that does not use IV dye (the "VQ scan") instead of a CT scan in some patients can help to prevent kidney problems.
NCT07412756
This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of brenipatide when administered with standard of care (SoC) compared to placebo plus SoC in delaying the return of major depressive symptoms. The trial is divided into three periods as follows: a screening period that will last approximately 1 month, a treatment period that will last a minimum of 12 months, and the follow up period that will last approximately 2 months. The duration of study participation may vary and may be shortened if depression symptoms worsen or if withdrawal from the study occurs for any reason.
