6,670 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
Pediatric cardiac arrest is a life-threatening problem affecting \>15,000 hospitalized children each year. Less than half of these children survive to hospital discharge, and neurologic morbidity is common among survivors. The objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the OPTI-VENT bundle to improve survival to discharge with favorable neurological outcome (Pediatric Cerebral Performance Category Score 1-2 or no change from baseline) among children receiving at least 1 minute of CPR.
The study is intended to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and efficacy of AZD4512 in patients with relapsed/refractory B-Cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (r/r B-ALL).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of SION-719 when given to people with CF who are already taking Trikafta.
This is a phase 3, multicenter, 78-week randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel arm study that will evaluate the weight loss efficacy as well as safety, tolerability, pharmacodynamic effects, and pharmacokinetics of VK2735 in adults who are obese (BMI ≥30 kg/m2) or overweight (BMI ≥27 kg/m2) with one or more weight related comorbid condition without Type 2 Diabetes.
This is a phase 3, multicenter, 78-week randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel arm study that will evaluate the weight loss efficacy as well as safety, tolerability, pharmacodynamic effects, and pharmacokinetics of VK2735 in adults with Type 2 Diabetes who are obese or overweight
Supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) is a dysrhythmia characterized rapid heart rate, typically with rapid onset. SVT accounts for over 50,000 emergency department visits per year. Of patients with regular, narrow-complex SVT, the mainstay of therapy includes adenosine and diltiazem. Adenosine is recommend by American and European guidelines as first-line therapy, however adenosine carries unique side effects that are potentially distressing to patients, including: "feeling of impending death or doom", flushing, anxiety, shortness of breath, and chest discomfort. Diltiazem does not carry this side effect profile, but has typically been reserved as second-line treatment due to side effects of low blood pressure associated with this class of medications. Diltiazem and adenosine have not been well studied head-to-head to compare safety and efficacy of their treatment for SVT. The purpose of this study is to evaluate safety and efficacy of adenosine and diltiazem for SVT in the ED (as completed through chart review of specific patient-level outcomes) and capture patient and clinician perspectives of medication satisfaction (through administration of questionnaires).
This Phase IIb dose-ranging study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of 3 different doses of AZD6793 compared with placebo tablets in participants with moderate to very severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if laterality training (a type of brain-based therapy) can help reduce pain and change how people with chronic musculoskeletal pain experience and describe their pain. The study will focus on adults with shoulder or knee pain lasting longer than 6 months. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does laterality training lead to a reduction in self-reported pain levels? Does laterality training reduce the area of the body that participants indicate as painful in their pain drawings? Does laterality training improve accuracy and speed in left/right judgment tasks? Researchers will compare participants who complete laterality training to those who complete a non-therapeutic cognitive task (a word puzzle) to see if laterality training changes pain drawings and improves pain outcomes. Participants will: Complete a pre-intervention assessment including pain ratings, pain drawings, and a left/right judgment test Be randomly assigned to one of two groups: Intervention group: Complete 5 one-minute sessions of laterality training using a tablet-based app called Recognise™, identifying left or right hand/foot images depending on the location of their pain Control group: Complete a 10-minute crossword puzzle activity (non-therapeutic) Complete the same assessments after the activity (pain ratings, pain drawings, left/right judgment test) The study will take place at two outpatient physical therapy clinics. Participation involves a single session lasting approximately 30-45 minutes. There is no cost to participate, and no compensation is provided. Participation is voluntary, and all personal data will be kept confidential. This research will help determine whether laterality training, a non-invasive brain-based technique, can reduce pain and improve quality of life in people with long-standing musculoskeletal pain.
This study compares insulin icodec, an insulin taken once a week to insulin glargine, an insulin taken once a day. The study medicine will be investigated in participants with type 1 diabetes. The study will look at how well insulin icodec taken weekly controls blood sugar compared to insulin glargine taken daily. The study will last for about 8.5 months.
Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are directly related to cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, and impaired vascular endothelial function (VEF) is an independent predictor of future cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk \[1, 2\]. Previous work from our lab (IRB 202010095) and others \[3\] demonstrates impaired VEF in young adults with prior exposure to ACEs even in the absence of clinical CVD risk factors. Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) is a class III histone deacetylase (HDAC) that plays a role in regulating vascular homeostasis and reductions in SIRT1 are associated with age-related endothelial dysfunction \[4\]. We have shown that ACEs-related impairments in VEF are accompanied by reductions in SIRT1 \[5\]. However, the mechanisms by which ACE exposure promotes VEF remain unknown. The goal of this project is to establish proof of concept that alterations in vascular SIRT1 expression and activity mediate premature vascular aging in individuals with \>=4 ACEs compared to those with 0 ACEs and that, because NAD+ is an essential substrate for SIRT1, increasing NAD+ bioavailability will restore VEF in those with \>=4 ACEs. Thus, we will use a robust translational approach coupling in vivo and in vitro measures of endothelial function, inflammation, oxidative stress, and SIRT1 expression and activity in young adults with (n=30-35) versus without (n=30-35) ACE exposure in a cross-sectional study, and during a randomized controlled trial employing a novel 4-week nicotinamide riboside (NR) supplementation approach to increase SIRT1 activity by increasing cellular NAD+ in ACE+ (n=15/group) to accomplish the following specific aims: 1. Determine the mechanisms by which ACE exposure alters the regulation of VEF by SIRT1. We hypothesize that compared to those without ACEs (ACE-), ACE+ will have (H1a) elevated endothelial oxidative stress and inflammation, (H1b) accompanied by reduced endothelial SIRT1 expression and increased p66SHC expression and acetylation of p65 and p53, (H1c) in association with lower VEF. 2. Determine how targeting SIRT1 by increasing NAD+ bioavailability affects VEF in young adults with ACEs. We hypothesize that systemic NR supplementation will (H2a) augment cellular SIRT1 activity and (H2b) improve VEF in ACE+. \[1\] Felitti, V.J., Anda, R.F., Nordenberg, D., Williamson, D.F., Spitz, A.M., Edwards, V., Koss, M.P., \& Marks, J.S.

This study is open to adults with type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and cardiovascular disease. People can join the study if they have these conditions and do not have a history of heart failure. The purpose of this study is to find out if a medicine called vicadrostat, when taken with empagliflozin, helps reduce cardiovascular risk in people with these conditions. The study will compare this combination to a placebo version of vicadrostat with empagliflozin. Participants are put into 2 groups randomly, which means by chance. One group takes vicadrostat and empagliflozin tablets, and the other group takes placebo tablets with empagliflozin. Placebo tablets look like vicadrostat tablets but do not contain any medicine. Participants take a tablet once per day for 2 and a half years and up to 4 years and 3 months. All participants also continue their medication for type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and cardiovascular disease. Participants have an equal chance of receiving the study medicine or placebo. Participants are in the study for up to 4 years and 3 months. During this time, they visit the study site regularly. During these visits, doctors collect information about participants' health and take blood samples. The doctors document when participants experience cardiovascular events. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.
This research is being done to test if a drug called omalizumab can help people with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and allergies. Each participant will be in the study for about 16 months, including 1-3 months of screening, 12 months of receiving the study drug at a clinic, and a follow-up call one month after your final clinic visit.

A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Phase 3 Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Intravenous AOC 1020 for the Treatment of Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy (FSHD)
This study is open to adults who are at least 40 years old and have idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). People can participate in the study if they have a forced vital capacity (FVC) greater than or equal to 45% of the predicted value and fibrosis of 20% or more confirmed by a high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) scan. The purpose of this study is to find out if a medicine called BI 765423 can improve lung function in people with IPF. The study will compare BI 765423 with a placebo to see if there is a difference in lung capacity after 3 months of treatment and will also look at changes in certain markers related to lung health. Participants are put into two groups randomly, which means by chance. One group receives the study medicine, and the other group receives a placebo. Placebo looks like BI 765423 but does not contain any study medicine. The study medicine is given as an infusion into a vein every four weeks. Participants are in the study for 8-10 months. During the study, participants may continue their regular treatment for IPF. During the study they visit the study site several times for screening, treatment, and follow-up. Doctors regularly test lung function by measuring FVC and take blood samples to measure study endpoints. The results are compared between the two groups to see whether the treatment works. The doctors also check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether a web-based application called the Pain Control Enhancement App (PACE-app) can support family caregivers in managing pain for their care recipients with dementia. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is it feasible and acceptable for family caregivers to use the PACE-app? Does using the PACE-app improve caregiver self-efficacy in pain management, adherence to pain treatments, communication with care providers, well-being, and their care recipient's pain conditions? Researchers will compare caregivers who use the PACE-app to those who continue with their usual care practices to see if the app leads to better outcomes for both caregivers and care recipients. Participants will: Be randomly assigned to either the PACE-app group or a usual-care control group Complete online surveys at baseline, 1 month, and 2 months If assigned to the PACE-app group: Use the PACE-app for 1 month to receive tailored pain management strategies and tools, and record their care recipient's pain in a digital diary Participate in an interview about their experience with the app All participation activities can be done remotely or in person.

This study will look at how well CagriSema helps people living with obesity to lose weight and maintain the weight loss long-term. The study has 2 parts: The first part is called 'the main study' and the second part is called 'the extension study'. In the main study participants will either get CagriSema (a study medicine) or placebo (a dummy medicine that looks like CagriSema but has no active ingredient). Which treatment participants get is decided by chance. Participants are two times more likely to get CagriSema than placebo. If participants get CagriSema in the main study, participants will continue on CagriSema in the extension study. Which dose of CagriSema participants will continue on is decided by chance. If participants get placebo in the main study, participants will get CagriSema in the extension study. Participants will take one injection of study medicine once a week. The study will last for about 3 years and 3 months.
The DONE SYMPLE Investigator-initiated phase III prospective, randomized, open-label, blinded endpoint-controlled clinical trial. This clinical trial is a global clinical study testing whether a procedure called endovascular therapy, which removes blood clots from blocked brain arteries, can safely benefit more stroke patients when used up to 72 hours after symptoms begin. Endovacular Therapy is already proven to improve recovery in patients treated within 6 hours, but only when advanced imaging like Computed Tomography (CT) perfusion or Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is available to guide treatment. Unfortunately, many hospitals, specially in underserved areas, do not have access to this type of imaging. This trial will investigate whether a basic brain scan called non-contrast CT, which is widely available in hospitals around the world, can be used instead. Special software will automatically analyze the CT scan to help doctors decide if a patient has enough brain tissue left to save with Endovascular Therapy. If this simpler approach works, it could expand access to lifesaving stroke care for more people globally. The study will enroll 500 adult stroke patients, ages 18 to 80, with a large vessel blockage in the brain's anterior circulation, moderate to severe stroke symptoms, and who are between 6 and 72 hours from when they were last known to be well. All participants will undergo CT imaging analyzed by the automated software. If the scan shows a small core of already damaged brain tissue and a larger area of threatened but still viable brain, the patient will qualify. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either standard medical therapy alone or medical therapy plus Endovasculat Therapy which involves inserting a catheter through a blood vessel to reach the brain and using a device to remove the clot. This procedure is performed by trained stroke or neurointerventional specialists. The study is "open-label," meaning patients and doctors know which treatment is given, but the assessment of patient recovery will be done by independent reviewers who do not know the group assignments. The primary goal is to determine if patients who receive Endovascular Therapy have better recovery at 90 days, measured by a scale called the modified Rankin Scale, which assesses how much disability a patient has after a stroke. The trial will also look at safety (especially brain bleeding after treatment), size and growth of brain injury on follow-up scans, recovery of strength and language, and overall quality of life and survival. Imaging will be reviewed centrally by a specialized team, and results will be analyzed to see how well Endovascular Therapy performs using this new patient selection method. The DONE SYMPLE Trial is sponsored by the University of Iowa in collaboration with the University of Texas Health Science Center in Houston. It will take place at up to 20 hospitals worldwide. All patients will be followed closely with exams and imaging at specific time points up to 90 days after treatment. If successful, this trial could change stroke care around the world by proving that Endovascular Therapy can be used safely and effectively even without advanced imaging, using tools available in most hospitals. This could help more stroke patients, especially in rural or resource-limited areas, access treatments that may improve their chances of recovery and reduce long-term disability.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate if ataciguat slows the progression of moderate calcific aortic valve stenosis in adults.
The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and feasibility of a 12-week behavioral counseling intervention that has been integrated into the primary care setting on psychosocial, behavioral, and health outcomes in a large sample of adults with at least one CVD risk factor. Aim 1: Evaluate the efficacy of a 12-week behavioral counseling intervention on psychosocial outcomes of adults with at least one CVD risk factor. H1: We hypothesize participants will improve their behavioral regulation skills and habit formation skills over 12 weeks. Aim 2: Evaluate the efficacy of a 12-week behavioral counseling intervention on behavioral outcomes (physical activity, diet, and sleep) of adults with at least one CVD risk factor. H2: We hypothesize participants will improve PA (daily steps), diet (total daily kilocalories), and sleep (sleep time, sleep efficiency) over the 12-week intervention. Aim 3: Evaluate the efficacy of a 12-week behavioral counseling intervention on health outcomes (blood pressure, weight, waist circumference, body composition, quality of life) of adults with at least one CVD risk factor. H3: We hypothesize participants will improve blood pressure, weight, waist circumference, body composition, quality of life over the 12-week intervention.
This Phase II open-label interventional clinical trial aims to evaluate the efficacy of romiplostim, in patients with severe aplastic anemia (SAA), both treatment naïve and relapsed/refractory, in inducing trilineage hematopoiesis in children and young adults.
The purpose of this phase 3, randomized, placebo controlled, event-driven study is to assess the effect of AZD0780, an oral PCSK9 inhibitor, compared with placebo in reducing the risk of MACE-PLUS in patients with established ASCVD or at high risk for a first ASCVD event. The effect of AZD0780 vs placebo on the risk of MACE-PLUS will be evaluated from randomisation until the primary analysis censoring date (PACD). The Study Closure Visit will be scheduled to occur after the PACD and will be the final visit for each participant in the study.
This is a study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AZD0780 in adults with clinical ASCVD or who are at risk for a first ASCVD event and who have elevated LDL-C. AZD0780 is a small molecule that reduces the amount of LDL-C in the blood. Placebo will be used for comparison, and neither the participants nor the Investigators will know who is receiving the AZD0780 medication and who is receiving the placebo until the end of study. The total length of the study for an individual participant will be up to approximately 56 weeks, including a screening period of up to 14 days, treatment with AZD0780 or placebo for 52 weeks, and a safety follow-up period of 10 days.
