All Clinical Trials

The overarching goal of this project is to assess the feasibility, acceptability, and appropriateness of recruitment methods, target population, and a waitlist design to finalize the protocol of FearLess in primary malignant brain tumor patients and caregivers Read Less

A randomized, single-blind intervention trial to test the comparative effectiveness of an electronic health record best practice advisory system that informs clinicians of guideline-indicated and FDA-approved heart failure medications currently not prescribed to their patients with heart failure versus usual care (no alert and how things are done currently). The purpose of the alert is to stimulate appropriate medication prescription for patients with heart failure and a reduced ejection fraction. This will be done across outpatient Inova clinics and at the five Inova hospitals. Read Less

Emerging adulthood (18-25 years of age) is a critical developmental window to promote weight management and cardiometabolic health, particularly for emerging adult women. The primary purpose of this study is to test the preliminary efficacy of the intensive lifestyle intervention for EA women in reducing adiposity, as well as improving biomarkers of inflammation and metabolic risk over 12 months compared with a traditional behavioral weight loss intervention. This treatment program will be tested in emerging adult (EA) women ages 18-25 years old with a BMI of 25-50 kg/m\^2. Read Less

The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effects of a drug (in the drug class called sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors) in women who have symptoms of ischemic heart disease. The main questions the study aims to answer are: Does blood flow in the heart improve with study drug? Participants will be randomly assigned to a 12-week course of the study drug, dapagliflozin 10mg, or placebo. Blood flow in the heart will be assessed using stress cardiac magnetic resonance imaging at baseline and 12 weeks. The researchers will compare the results from the two groups. Read Less

A dose escalation study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacologic properties of Ambroxol in adult participants with Sanfilippo disease(s) (MPS3). Read Less

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine which of two types of standard intravenous (IV) fluids (a combination of 5% dextrose and Lactated Ringers solution and Lactated Ringers solution alone) has a better influence on labor when inducing labor in pregnant women. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does the use of 5% dextrose and Lactated Ringers lead to a shorter labor than the use of just Lactated Ringers? 2. Does the use of 5% dextrose and Lactated Ringers increase the risk of neonatal hypoglycemia when compared to Lactated Ringers? Participants in this trial will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: a group that receives a solution of 5% dextrose and Lactated Ringers, and a group that receives Lactated Ringers alone. Researchers will compare the outcomes of the two groups to see which IV fluid is more effective. Read Less

This pilot study will evaluate the feasibility of at least twice daily use of azelaic acid in breast cancer patients undergoing radiation treatment. Read Less

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if drug atibuclimab (IC14) works to treat adults hospitalized with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF). It will also learn about the safety of IC14. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is the drug IC14 safe in patients with ADHF? What are the IC14 drug levels in the bloodstream after treatment with IC14? What is the impact of IC14 treatment on markers of disease in the bloodstream? What is the impact of IC14 treatment on measures of heart failure? There is no placebo arm in this study. Participants will: Take drug IC14 once via an intravenous infusion After the infusion, be visited in the hospital or visit the clinic 5 times for checkups and tests Answer questions about their medical status via a phone call 3 months after the infusion Read Less

A growing body of research has highlighted the importance of frontal regions, at both the functional and structural levels, in age-related declines in attentional and cognitive processing. However, the underlying neurobiological pathophysiological changes in the brain that contribute to these declines are still largely unclear. The objective of this proposal is to investigate neural mechanisms of age-related attentional distractibility, focusing on the neural circuit initiated from the locus coeruleus (LC). In the current proposal, the investigators will test the hypothesis that the neural disconnectivity of LC with the salience network (SN) drives failures of ignoring distractors in older adults. The investigators will examine how LC-SN connectivity is associated with selective attention performance, and how improved LC-SN connectivity through a cognitive training program may lead to improved attentional performance.

The purpose of this research study is to examine the effect of various forms of exercise training on blood vessel function in healthy individuals as well as individuals with mental health disorders (posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and/or generalized anxiety disorder (GAD)). Read Less

The purpose of Aim 1 of the study is to gather quantitative and qualitative information to inform the development of a digital app tailored for Native American women to help them avoid a pregnancy affected by alcohol. In Aim 2, we will Pilot test 5 new candidate components tailored to Native women at risk of AEP Read Less
