This study will include 126 patients of which 84 patients will be treated with the investigational device and 42 patients will be included in an active control group.
NCT04148664
This study is a prospective, randomized controlled study to compare overall clinical outcomes between High Power Short Duration (HPSD) and standard radiofrequency (RF) ablation settings for Atrial Fibrillation (AF) ablation in the treatment of subjects with paroxysmal or persistent Atrial Fibrillation.
NCT01011478
RATIONALE: Rosuvastatin may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving rosuvastatin after surgery may kill any tumor cells that remain after surgery. It may also keep polyps from forming or colon cancer from coming back. It is not yet known whether rosuvastatin is more effective than a placebo in treating colon cancer that was removed by surgery. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying rosuvastatin to see how well it works compared with placebo in treating patients with stage I or stage II colon cancer that was removed by surgery.
NCT02402439
The goal of this trial is to gain initial clinical experience regarding the safety and efficacy of treating type I diabetes in people who have received a kidney transplant by transplanting islets into a new transplant site in the stomach (gastrointestinal submucosa). A total of 6 patients will be enrolled in the study and followed for a period of up to 3 years after the last islet transplant.
NCT02614794
This study is being done to see if tucatinib works better than placebo to help patients who have a specific type of breast cancer called HER2 positive breast carcinoma. The breast cancer in this study is either metastatic (spread into other parts of the body) or cannot be removed completely with surgery. All patients in the study will get capecitabine and trastuzumab, two drugs that are often used to treat this cancer. There are two parts to this study. The first part of the study is already complete. Patients were randomly assigned to get either tucatinib or placebo (a pill with no medicine). Since this part was "blinded," neither patients nor their doctors knew whether a patient got tucatinib or placebo. The second part of the study is called the Unblinded Phase. In this part of the study, participants and their doctors know which drugs are being given. Participants who used to get or are currently getting placebo may be able to start taking tucatinib instead. Each treatment cycle lasts 21 days. Patients will swallow tucatinib pills two times every day. They will swallow capecitabine pills two times a day during the first two weeks of each cycle. Patients will get trastuzumab injections from the study site staff on the first day of every cycle.
NCT02888626
A single-center prospective, open-label uncontrolled pilot study. Subjects will receive laser treatments and will be followed at 12 weeks post-final treatment.
NCT05991869
Kaiser Permanente Northern California (KPNC) has been a national leader in implementation of HIV preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP), a daily antiretroviral pill that is more than 99% effective in preventing HIV acquisition. However, many patients at risk for HIV at KPNC are not yet using PrEP, resulting in preventable infections each year. In prior work, the study team developed and validated a prediction model that used electronic health record (EHR) data from 3.7 million KPNC members to identify patients at high risk of HIV acquisition but not using PrEP. The model substantially outperformed models based only on CDC criteria for PrEP use, particularly for Black patients, a population with high HIV incidence and lower PrEP uptake. The objective of this proposal is to evaluate the feasibility of implementing this EHR-based model at the point of care to increase PrEP referrals and uptake at KPNC. The specific aims of this project are to 1) conduct provider focus groups to identify barriers and facilitators to PrEP referrals and to optimize the delivery mechanism of our clinical decision support intervention, 2) evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of a clinical decision support intervention for primary care providers (PCPs) to increase PrEP referrals and uptake among high-risk patients, and 3) assess patient- and provider-based characteristics associated with PrEP referrals and uptake. To accomplish these aims, the study team proposes a randomized controlled trial of a clinical decision support intervention for PrEP, which involves alerting KP San Francisco (KPSF) Adult and Family Medicine PCPs about patients identified by our prediction model as being at high risk for HIV acquisition prior to in-person clinic visits. We will compare PrEP referrals and uptake among patients who are seen by PCPs randomized to intervention and usual care study arms using an intention-to-treat analysis.
NCT03846531

NCT04092582
This is a Phase IIa, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, multicenter, two-arm study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of MTPS9579A as an add-on therapy in patients with uncontrolled moderate to severe asthma who are receiving daily ICS therapy and at least one of the following additional controller medications: long-acting beta-agonist (LABA), leukotriene modulator (leukotriene modifier \[LTM\] or leukotriene receptor antagonist \[LTRA\]), long-acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA), or long-acting theophylline preparation.
NCT01736072
The purpose of this study is to compare two different surgical procedures for the treatment of Rectal Cancer: Laparoscopic Surgery and Robotic Assisted Laparoscopic Surgery. The ROLARR study is for participants with cancer of the rectum for whom a laparoscopic operation (sometimes called "keyhole surgery") has been recommended by their surgeon. In the past most rectal cancers were removed using "open" surgery. Open surgery involves a large cut down the middle of the patient's abdomen to allow the surgeon to see and take out the cancer. On a previous study showed that using laparoscopic surgery to remove colorectal cancers was as good as open surgery for curing cancer. There is now another option to remove rectal cancers, which involves using a robotic system with laparoscopic surgery. This type of surgery is called "robotic-assisted" laparoscopic surgery and is now becoming widely used by surgeons to remove cancers including the rectum, as well as for other non-cancer operations. In order to perform robotic-assisted laparoscopic surgery, the surgeon sits at a robotic control unit a few feet away from the patient. Using the robotic control unit, the surgeon can see a clear video image of the patient's abdomen and the operation site. The surgeon can perform the operation from the robotic control unit by controlling the movement of a set of robotic surgical instruments, guided by the video camera. Like standard laparoscopic surgery, the surgeon is able to carry out the entire operation through a few small cuts in the abdomen. The camera of the robotic system provides a 3D high-definition magnified view of the operation site and the robotic system is also able to translate the movements of the surgeon's hands into small precise movements inside the patient's body. We want to test whether robotic-assisted laparoscopic surgery is as good, or even better, at removing rectal cancers as standard laparoscopic surgery (actually Robotic-assisted laparoscopic surgery is used as standard of care in rectal cancer patients at University of California, Irvine Medical Center). We also want to investigate whether using robotic-assisted laparoscopic surgery reduces the number of times a laparoscopic operation needs to be converted to an open operation, and see whether using a robotic system can also shorten the length of time patients need to stay in hospital and if it reduces the number of complications patients may have during and after their operation.
NCT04286165
This study will enroll 180 Veterans at a 2:1 ratio where 120 Veterans will be enrolled into a brief transdiagnostic peer supported webSTAIR (BPS webSTAIR) and 60 will be supported into Waitlist. The purpose of the study is to assess the efficacy BPS webSTAIR in regard to four outcomes: reduction in PTSD and depression symptoms (measured by the PCL-5 and PHQ-8, respectively) and improvement in emotion regulation and work and social adjustment (measured by the DERS-16 and WSAS, respectively). The active treatment is a 6-session modular treatment that focuses on learning emotion management skills where Particpants will have 10 weeks to complete the treatment. Assessments will occur three times for those in webSTAIR: baseline, post-treatment (10 weeks after randomization) and 8-week follow-up and twice for those on waitlist (baseline and 10 weeks after randomization). It is hypothesized that BPS WebSTAIR will be superior to the Waitlist condition on all four outcomes. Mixed Effects Models will be used to evaluate the outcomes.
NCT01633424
Given the extremely limited availability of donated organs, transplant candidates must be carefully evaluated and selected to ensure the success of the transplant and value of the organ to the recipient. Medical criteria for pre-transplant evaluation of patients is well established, however, listing criteria for psychosocial risk factors (e.g., understanding of illness and transplant process, psychiatric history, support system, compliance, etc) is less standardized. The purpose of this research is to study the psychometric properties (e.g., predictive validity) of the new pre-transplant "Stanford Integrated Psychosocial Assessment for Transplant" (SIPAT) examination in patients who received heart, kidney, liver, or lung transplant and underwent the SIPAT evaluation before treatment. This new screening tool was designed to standardize the evaluation process of psychosocial risk factors and their severity, in order to enhance predictions of medical and psychosocial outcomes of patients post-transplant. If the SIPAT is used for standard, pre-transplant assessment, risk factors that may be amenable to clinical intervention could be identified. In turn, this may assist in developing a comprehensive psychosocial treatment plan for each individual, with the ultimate goal of minimizing preventable problems, mitigating risk, and optimizing graft survival, patient function, and quality of life.
NCT05121480
The purpose of this research study is to determine whether the study drug, EDP1815, is safe and effective in the treatment of atopic dermatitis compared with placebo. The study will look at different doses of the study drug, and whether there are differences when the drug is given once daily or twice daily.
NCT04126317
The primary objectives of the study are to determine the safety of high-dose aflibercept (hereafter referred to as HD) and to determine if HD provides greater intraocular pharmacodynamic (PD) effect and/or longer duration of action compared to intravitreal aflibercept injection (hereafter referred to as IAI).
NCT01152788
The purpose of this study is to find out what effects an experimental drug, called interleukin 21 or rIL-21, will have on malignant melanoma and whether these effects look promising compared to dacarbazine. In addition, this study will look at the side effects of rIL-21, and some special blood tests will be done to check the level of rIL-21 in the blood. This study will also look at previously removed melanoma tissue to determine which patients might benefit most from this treatment. This research is being done because currently there is no effective treatment for this type of cancer.
NCT03013543
The purpose of the study was to determine the effect of setmelanotide (RM-493) on weight, hunger assessments, and other factors in participants with rare genetic disorders of obesity.
NCT05359666
The purpose of CLP-01 was to complete the safety endpoint of the closed trial and ensure that all safety data generated by IRR-CT-901-2013-01 was accounted for and accurately identified, verified, and independently adjudicated. CLP-01 does not include an evaluation of the efficacy or exploratory endpoints from IRR-CT-901-2013-01. CLP-01 did not enroll new subjects and relied solely on data collected in the subject source and medical records in IRR-CT-901-2013-01. CLP-01 was conducted between March 2020 and November 2021.
