NCT05554627
This is an open-label, parallel-group, randomized clinical trial of up to 6 months treatment of adjunctive intranasal (IN) esketamine (ESK) vs. adjunctive aripiprazole (ARI) in Veterans with unipolar Treatment Resistant Depression (TRD). This study will assess the efficacy, safety, and acceptability of adjunctive IN ESK in comparison to ARI, one of the best studied and most widely used adjunctive therapies for TRD. The primary hypothesis is that participants receiving adjunctive IN ESK will be significantly more likely to achieve remission after six weeks of treatment as compared to those who receive adjunctive ARI. Depressive symptoms will be assessed by central raters (CR), blinded to treatment assignment, using the clinician rated version of the Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology (QIDS-C16), a well-validated tool that is commonly used and is easily translated across other depression inventory scales. The study is powered to detect an absolute difference in remission rates of 10%, or larger, at 6 weeks. Additional outcomes of interest include symptom reduction across 6 months of randomized therapy, side effects and other tolerability indices, attrition rates and measures of quality of life and cost-effectiveness.
NCT02207114
The proposed work will provide critical insights into the potential impact of a biomarker-based algorithm on reducing unnecessary antibiotic use in different adult and pediatric/neonatal ICU's. This proposal will also assess the costs (or savings) of a biomarker-based intervention. Overall, the results of this work will be critical in informing future strategies to eliminate unnecessary antibiotic use and curb the continued rise in antimicrobial resistance.
NCT05724615
We aim to evaluate different approaches to increase Lipid screenings among primary care patients at Penn Medicine. A randomized trial will test the effectiveness of bulk ordering, outreach via mailed letters, and text-based reminders with scheduling assistance for patients needing a lipids panel. We will observe the number of completed panels after 3 and 6 months.
NCT02627092
The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of copper linens on hospital acquired infections and drug resistant bacteria.
NCT06064981
The overall objective of this study is to use behavioral economics interventions to increase naloxone acquisition and carrying among participants who attend an opioid overdose reversal training.
NCT02555280
A 2 and 5 year evaluation of clinical outcomes in the treatment of degenerative spinal stenosis with concomitant low back pain by decompression with additional stabilization using the coflex® Interlaminar Technology for FDA Actual Conditions of Use Study.
NCT01004978
This randomized phase III trial studies chemoembolization and sorafenib tosylate to see how well they work compared with chemoembolization alone in treating patients with liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as doxorubicin hydrochloride, mitomycin, 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. Chemoembolization kills tumor cells by carrying drugs directly into blood vessels near the tumor and then blocking the blood flow to allow a higher concentration of the drug to reach the tumor for a longer period of time. Kinase inhibitors, such as sorafenib tosylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the action of an abnormal protein that signals cancer cells to multiply. It is not yet known whether giving chemoembolization together with sorafenib tosylate is more effective than chemoembolization alone in treating patients with liver cancer.
NCT05631977
The present study is a preparatory step towards a multi-reader multi case (MRMC) randomized fully crossed study. As POCUS images are frequently not stored and not methodically acquired using a standardized image acquisition protocol this study will collect cardiac POCUS images in a prespecified manner.
NCT02785120
This is a phase 2, multicenter, randomized, double-blind (within dose), placebo controlled, parallel-group, dose-range finding study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of TF0023 spray versus placebo in functional improvement of patients with ischemic strokes under standard of care.
NCT00225797
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the analgesic efficacy and safety of oxymorphone extended release in non-cancer patients with chronic low back pain.
NCT03439462
A phase 1/2 multi-center investigation of nab-sirolimus (also known as ABI-009, nab-rapamycin) in combination with mFOLFOX6 and Bevacizumab as first-line therapy in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer
NCT03654209
Patients who have provided informed consented and are scheduled to undergo endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) of lesions 15mm and larger will be randomized to STSC (80 W, Effect 5) vs APC (preferred settings) vs No Treatment of the perimeter of the EMR site.
NCT03337620
This is a double blind placebo-controlled study which will evaluate the efficacy of bupivacaine compared to saline, delivered by the Tx360® device to the sphenopalatine ganglion (SPG), to treat chronic migraine headache. The Tx360® is a nasal applicator which is cleared through the FDA for transnasal medication delivery, including delivery to the SPG. The SPG has been implicated in a variety of cephalalgias. It is critical to the success of this intervention that the blocking agent be accurately delivered to this area as it is the only non-bony access to the pterygopalatine fossa (PPF). Subjects meeting inclusion/exclusion criteria will receive 12 intranasal treatments to the SPG over a period of 4 weeks with follow-up monthly for an additional 3 months post-treatment.
NCT00439946
The purpose of this 8-week study is to compare the effects of switching from intravenous Flolan to intravenous Remodulin therapy. Remodulin (treprostinil sodium) is an approved therapy for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Unlike Flolan, Remodulin does not need to be mixed daily and is stable at room temperature, so there is no need for ice packs. In addition, Remodulin is changed every 48hrs, instead of every 12-24 (with ice packs) or every 8 hours (without ice packs) with Flolan. Flolan is given using a type of portable medication pump called the CADD Legacy infusion pump. In this study, Remodulin will be given using a smaller and lighter medication pump called the Crono Five infusion pump. This study will also assess the effect that changing to Remodulin will have on treatment satisfaction and patient quality of life.
NCT04700722
The Synuclein-One Study will be evaluating α-synuclein in patients with Parkinson's disease, Multiple System Atrophy, Dementia with Lewy bodies and Pure Autonomic Failure. Using a simple diagnostic test will improve clinical accuracy in diagnosing, earlier diagnosis, and distinguish between neurodegenerative diseases.
NCT03885531
The objective of this study is to examine the safety and performance of the Journey II CR TKS based on retrospective data.
NCT03657251
The MMRF CureCloud Research Initiative, a Direct-to-Patient Research effort aimed at enrolling 5,000 individuals from whom comprehensive molecular and immune analyses will be generated from blood specimens and the resulting data aggregated with the correlating clinical information. Blood will be collected from all participants after electronic online consenting via a mailed blood kit designed for a mobile phlebotomy appointment. Through the consenting process, participants will also be authorizing collection of their electronic medical records information.
NCT01940185
A Post-Approval Study of the LINX® Reflux Management System in a prospective, multicenter, single-arm study, with patients as their own control to monitor the safety and efficacy of the LINX implant procedure and device in a post-approval environment to supplement existing safety and efficacy data.
