NCT03067181
This phase III trial studies how well active surveillance help doctors to monitor subjects with low risk germ cell tumors for recurrence after their tumor is removed. When the germ cell tumor has spread outside of the organ in which it developed, it is considered metastatic. Chemotherapy drugs, such as bleomycin, carboplatin, etoposide, and cisplatin, 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. The trial studies whether carboplatin or cisplatin is the preferred chemotherapy to use in treating metastatic standard risk germ cell tumors.
NCT05920356
The primary objectives are to compare progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in participants who receive sotorasib with platinum doublet chemotherapy versus participants who receive pembrolizumab with platinum doublet chemotherapy.
NCT05084638
This study evaluates the impact of ofatumumab in Relapsing Remitting Multiple Sclerosis (RRMS) participants that are very early in the course of their disease using clinical and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) outcomes. The study also assesses changes in disease using monitoring techniques including digital biometric device use, biomarker analysis and non-conventional MRI. Select outcomes in the ofatumumab treated group will be compared to a group of Healthy participants to determine if there are similarities between the groups after the patients with MS undergo treatment with ofatumumab.
NCT07285018
The purpose of this study is to test the safety and efficacy of study drug LY4065967 for the treatment of diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain (DPNP). This trial is part of the chronic pain master protocol H0P-MC-CPMP (NCT05986292) which is a protocol to accelerate the development of new treatments for chronic pain.
NCT05493241
As Veterans age, chronic health conditions increase their risk of functional limitations, or difficulty completing day-to-day activities independently. Older adults with functional limitations are more likely to be hospitalized or admitted to long-term care facilities. Maintaining independence at home and in the community is a high priority for many older Veterans. The goal of this study is to support the physical, cognitive, and social functioning of older Veterans by developing a program based on behavioral activation, an evidence-based brief psychosocial intervention that helps individuals increase their engagement in activities aligned with their values (i.e. what matters most to them). The study consists of 3 aims. Aim 1 involves adapting an existing behavioral activation program for older Veterans at risk for functional decline to be delivered by video telehealth and seeking feedback from Veterans and VA staff about the program materials. Aim 2 involves testing the program in a group of 10 Veterans to learn whether it is satisfactory to Veterans; the investigators will make improvements to the program based on the information gathered in this aim. Aim 3 is a randomized controlled trial that will test the behavioral activation program compared to usual care in older adulthood in 48 Veterans. This will help determine whether the program is possible to deliver as planned and acceptable to Veterans, and assess the potential effects of the program on functioning and related health outcomes.
NCT03830320
The purpose of the study is to evaluate a new radiotracer called 64Cu-FBP8 for PET-MR imaging of thrombosis. The tracer has the potential of detecting thrombosis anywhere in the body, for instance in the left atrial appendage of patients with atrial fibrillation, and thereby may provide a non-invasive alternative to the current standard-of-care methods.

NCT07383701
This pilot prospective, interventional, longitudinal study, aims to evaluate the potential benefits of the probiotic supplement Lactobacillus plantarum 299v in patients with diabetic macular edema (DME). The study seeks to address the following questions: 1. Does central macular thickness on optical coherence tomography decrease after 4 months of supplementation? 2. Is visual acuity improved at 1, 2, 3, and 4 months following initiation of supplementation? 3. Is the number of anti-VEGF injections reduced following initiation of supplementation? Outcomes will be compared to a control group, using historic retrospective data. Participants will take Lactobacillus plantarum 299v orally twice daily for four months.
NCT04089358
This phase III trial compares a multi-component mobile health and social media physical activity intervention versus wearing a physical activity tracker alone among adolescent and young adult childhood cancer survivors. Regular physical activity helps maintain healthy weight, energy levels, and health. Adolescents and young adults who complete treatment for cancer are often less active. They may gain weight and have more health problems compared to people the same age who have not had treatment for cancer. Comparing the 2 programs will help researchers learn how to increase physical activity levels over time and also how changes in physical activity levels affect health and quality of life over time.
NCT02860000
This phase II trial studies how well alisertib with or without fulvestrant works in treating patients with endocrine-resistant breast cancer that has spread to other places in the body. Alisertib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Hormone therapy using fulvestrant may fight breast cancer by blocking the use of estrogen by the tumor cells or reducing the amount of estrogen made by the body. Giving alisertib with or without fulvestrant may be better in treating patients with breast cancer.
NCT06878859
The purpose of this study is to examine the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of a digital intervention for co-occurring cannabis use and depression. Participants will be randomized to complete Amplification of Positivity - Cannabis Use (AMP-C) or symptom tracking. The main outcomes will include changes in depressive symptoms and cannabis use, as well as usability ratings.
NCT07440303
This split-mouth randomized controlled clinical trial will test whether a ready-to-use collagen membrane (Star Matrix) can widen the protective band of gum tissue (keratinized gingiva) as effectively as the standard free gingival graft harvested from the palate. Central question Can Star Matrix provide the same or better gain in keratinized tissue width-with less patient discomfort and chair-time-than an autogenous graft? Primary objectives Compare the 6-month increase in keratinized tissue width between Star Matrix and autogenous graft sites. Assess patient-reported pain and morbidity associated with each treatment. Secondary objectives Measure operative time, early healing scores, esthetic outcomes, and (optional) histologic quality of the regenerated tissue. Methods Twelve adults with ≤ 2 mm keratinized tissue on contralateral lower-jaw teeth will be enrolled. Each participant receives Star Matrix on one side and a conventional free gingival graft on the other. Follow-up visits at 2, 4, 8, 12 and 24 weeks include clinical measurements, standardized photographs, and a 7-day postoperative pain diary. An optional 2 mm punch biopsy at 6 months is analyzed microscopically.
NCT06953479
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether a low-barrier treatment program can help people with hepatitis C virus (HCV) who are in jail start and complete treatment more easily. This study focuses on adults at the Rhode Island Department of Corrections who have active HCV and are awaiting trial. The study asks: * Can a simplified, low-barrier HCV treatment program work in a jail setting? * Do participants finish treatment and get cured using this approach? All participants will receive a 12-week course of the HCV medication sofosbuvir/velpatasvir (Epclusa). If they are released before completing treatment, they will take the remaining doses with them. Community Health Workers (CHWs) will help support participants after release, including reminding them to take medications and helping them get follow-up lab work. Researchers will measure: * Whether participants are cured of HCV * Whether the treatment approach is easy to use (feasible), acceptable, and followed correctly (fidelity) * Whether the program could be used in other jails or expanded in the future This study may help bring HCV treatment to more people in jail, reduce community spread of the virus, and support national goals to eliminate HCV.

The trial consists of 3 Parts, a non-randomized Safety-run-in part (Part A) and the subsequent randomized Ph2b trial with 2 treatment arms. After the treatment of 15 participants with visugromab at the expansion dose, an interim safety and preliminary efficacy analysis will be conducted (Part B), followed by the treatment of the remaining participants (Part C).
NCT06772623
Non small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) is the most frequently occurring histologic subtype of lung cancer and is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. The purpose of this study is to assess adverse events and change in disease activity when Telisotuzumab Adizutecan (ABBV-400) is given in combination with a programmed cell death receptor 1 (PD1) immune checkpoint inhibitor to adult participants to treat NSCLC. Telisotuzumab Adizutecan (ABBV-400) and budigalimab are investigational drugs being developed for the treatment of NSCLC. This study will be divided into two stages, with the first stage treating participants with several doses of telisotuzumab adizutecan in combination with budigalimab within the dose escalation regimen until the dose reached is tolerable and expected to be efficacious. In Stage 2 there will be 3 treatment groups. Two groups will receive pembrolizumab with different optimized doses of telisotuzumab adizutecan (to allow for the best dose to be studied in the future). One group will receive the standard of care (SOC) - pembrolizumab, pemetrexed, and investigator's choice of carboplatin or cisplatin, followed by pembrolizumab and pemetrexed. Approximately 252 adult participants with NSCLC will be enrolled in the study in 132 sites worldwide. In the dose escalation stage participants will be treated with increasing intravenous (IV) doses of Telisotuzumab Adizutecan in combination with budigalimab until the dose of Telisotuzumab Adizutecan reached is tolerable and expected to be efficacious. In the dose optimization stage participants will be receive IV optimized doses of Telisotuzumab Adizutecan in combination with IV pembrolizumab, or IV SOC - pembrolizumab, pemetrexed, and investigator's choice of carboplatin or cisplatin, followed by pembrolizumab and pemetrexed. The study will run for a duration of approximately 33 months. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at an approved institution (hospital or clinic). The effect of the treatment will be frequently checked by medical assessments, blood tests, questionnaires and side effects.
