This is a study to evaluate whether macitentan is an effective and safe treatment for patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and pulmonary vascular disease. The primary objective is to evaluate whether macitentan 10 mg reduces N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-pro-BNP) as compared to placebo in these patients.
NCT00667823
The main objective of the AC 055 303/SERAPHIN OL study, which will follow the AC 055 302/SERAPHIN study, will be to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of ACT 064992 in patients with symptomatic PAH.
NCT03500640
Obesity and pre-diabetes threatens the overall health and functional independence of older adults but lifestyle weight management for diabetes prevention, soon to be reimbursed by Medicare, can reduce this burden. The current 24-month study will enroll adults, ages 60 and older, through senior community centers and research registries. The investigators will study how two long term weight loss maintenance programs, both using group telephone sessions to support health behavior change, impact meaningful health outcomes. If successful, this project will provide a sustainable intervention model for healthy aging services that can benefit older adults and society.
NCT03153137

NCT03891524
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of JNJ-70033093 in preventing total venous thromboembolism (VTE) events (proximal and/or distal deep vein thrombosis \[DVT\] \[asymptomatic confirmed by venography assessment or objectively confirmed symptomatic\], nonfatal pulmonary embolism \[PE\], or any death) during the treatment period.
NCT00381641
This phase II trial studies how well sunitinib malate works in treating patients with thyroid cancer that did not respond to iodine I 131 (radioactive iodine) and cannot be removed by surgery. Sunitinib malate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor.

Primary objective is assessment of the efficacy of cumulative doses of semapimod measured by decrease in Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI).
NCT05825898
Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is a public health problem: moderate / severe TR are common, especially in ageing populations, and affect 4% of the population \>75 years old, totaling approximately 1.6 million in the US and 3 million in Europe. TR is associated with an increased risk of mortality and morbidity. Contrasting with TR prevalence and the magnitude of the problem, the vast majority of patients are medically treated with diuretics to relieve their symptoms and a curative surgical treatment for isolated severe TR is seldom performed. Reluctance to perform an ITVS can be explained in the one hand by the limited evidence that TR correction improves outcomes and on the other hand, ITVS is associated to high observed in-hospital mortality rates (≈ 10% remarkably consistent in most series across the literature). Severity of the clinical presentation is the main predictor of outcome after surgery. The TRI-SCORE, is a dedicated, simple and accurate risk score model to predict in-hospital mortality after ITVS that could guide the clinical decision-making process at the individual level. Excellent outcomes can be achieved when patients present with low TRI-SCORE. These results suggest adopting a more pro-active approach for TV interventions, and to intervene earlier in the course of the disease in patients with severe isolated TR, irrespective of TR mechanism / etiology, before the occurrence of advanced / irreversible consequences such as severe RV dilatation / dysfunction, renal and liver failure, and intractable heart failure. Recently transcatheter tricuspid valve interventions (TTVI) have emerged recently as a less invasive option to surgery to cure patients with TR. What is the best treatment between medical, surgical or transcatheter therapy to consider and the best timing for each patient are not clearly defined. The aim of the study is to compare outcome of patients with significant functional TR according to medical, transcatheter or surgical treatment after matching per TRISCORE.
NCT05458024
The main objective of this study is to determine whether the administration of a single dose of Vitamin D in the Emergency Department following a motor vehicle collision can improve musculoskeletal pain severity as well as reduce musculoskeletal pain outcome disparity between Blacks and White following a motor vehicle collision. This randomized controlled trial is a pilot study to determine feasibility and potential efficacy (response to study drug, ability to reduce racial disparity in pain outcomes). This data can be used to adequately power a larger randomized controlled trial to fully assess efficacy.
NCT06025877
There is a major unmet need for timely, non-invasive, and low-burden evaluation of patients presenting with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and dementia. MCI impacts 12-18% of people in the United States over age 60 years (Alzheimer's Association. Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) available at https://www.alz.org/alzheimers-dementia/what-is-dementia/related\_conditions/mild-cognitive-impairment. Accessed August 16, 2022). MCI does not substantially interfere with daily activities, although complex functional tasks may be performed less efficiently (Knopman DS, Petersen RC. Mild cognitive impairment and mild dementia: a clinical perspective. Mayo Clin Proc. 2014;89(10):1452-1459. doi:10.1016/j.mayocp.2014.06.019). Approximately 30% of MCI patients have Alzheimer's disease (AD) as a cause of their symptoms (Lopez,OL, Kuller LH, Becker JT, et al. Incidence of dementia in mild cognitive impairment in the cardiovascular health study cognition study. Arch Neurol. 2007;64(3):416-420.doi:10.1001/archneur.64.3.416)). In contrast, dementia is defined by chronic, acquired loss of two or more cognitive abilities caused by brain disease or injury, often associated with significant interference with the ability to function at work or at usual activities. (Knopman DS, Petersen RC. Mild cognitive impairment and mild dementia: a clinical perspective. Mayo Clin Proc. 2014;89(10):1452-1459. doi:10.1016/j.mayocp.2014.06.019). Approximately 60-80% of dementia patients have AD as a cause of their symptoms (Alzheimer's Association. Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) available at https://www.alz.org/alzheimers-dementia/what-is-dementia/related\_conditions/mild-cognitive-impairment. Accessed August 16, 2022).
NCT05576350
Ecological momentary interventions (EMI), which use phones to deliver messages to reduce alcohol use and related risk behaviors during or prior to drinking events, can help to address triggers in real-time. GPS tracking can determine when individuals visit places they have previously reported drinking or triggers to drink and then EMI messages can be delivered upon arrival to prevent risky alcohol use. A mobile app has been developed that uses GPS tracking to determine when individuals visit "risky" places and then delivers a survey asking what behaviors they engaged in while at the location. The goal of the proposed study is to use this app to enhance the Tracking and Reducing Alcohol Consumption (TRAC) intervention by delivering messages that encourage participants to employ strategies discussed during TRAC sessions when arriving at risky places. When they leave these places, they will complete a survey and breathalyzer reading in order to collect event-level self-report and biological data on alcohol use and HIV risk. If their breathalyzer result indicates alcohol use, they will receive harm reduction messaging. It is expected that combining TRAC with EMI ("TRAC-ER") will increase effectiveness by reinforcing topics discussed during these sessions, providing in-the-moment messaging to address triggers, and collecting real-time alcohol use data.
NCT05256771
Multi-center, three-arm, randomized, evaluator-blinded study of electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) and/or 1064 nm diode laser, pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) and vacuum assisted radio frequency (RF) using the Venus Bliss Max for fat reduction, body contouring and aesthetic improvement.
NCT04376827
