Phoenix, AZ Paid Clinical Trials

The investigators propose to use a parallel group, randomized controlled trial to test the efficacy of a 13-week personalized approach to reducing smoking intervention versus a second approach using a different health intervention on smoking cessation, healthy sleep metrics, and biomarkers of cardiovascular risk in a sample of 200 treatment-seeking smokers who are adults living with HIV (ALHIV). To enroll in the study, treatment-seeking ALHIV smokers will undergo phone and in-person study eligibility assessments, including a history, physical examination, screening laboratory tests, and an overnight in-home objective sleep assessment. Eligible subjects (N=200) will be randomized to the 13-week Approach 1 (N=100) or Approach 2 (N=100) condition. All subjects will receive a 12-week course of varenicline (beginning in week 2) and 8 individual 15-minute smoking cessation counseling sessions \[weeks 1, 2, 3 (target quit date), 5, 7, 9, 11, 13\]. At each in-person counseling session, 30-45 minutes of Approach 1 or Approach 2 counseling will be provided as well. While receiving varenicline, the study team will monitor for side effects and changes to blood pressure at each study visit for safety reasons. Study measures are collected at all time points including EOT (week 13), and 6-month follow-up (6MFU). Read Less

The overarching goal of this research protocol is to validate the effectiveness of Innodem's ETNA-MS device in informing clinicians on the disability status of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) patients. Effectiveness of the device will be assessed by the level of agreement between the EDSS estimated by the device and the actual scores measured by the neurologist in-person assessments. Read Less

This is a prospective randomized multi-center study which will compare acute fluid resuscitation using a colloid strategy (LR + 5% Albumin) to a crystalloid strategy (LR alone), in adults with an acute burn involving at least 25% of their total body surface area. Read Less

The objective of the study is to assess the efficacy of STAT, an activity-based therapy protocol compared to standard therapy (ST) to improve functional outcome and reduce disability in patients recovering from burn injury. This randomized multi-center trial is designed with two parallel treatment groups: STAT and ST. Efficacy of the STAT protocol will be determined through comparison to the ST only group. It will be conducted at seven burn centers. Read Less

The Investigators will study a device for men in urinary retention secondary to Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia, BPH ,who are catheter dependent or who have a Post Void Residual \> 350cc. The hypothesis is that the device will allow these participants to return to volitional voiding with a Post Void Residual \<75 cc. Read Less

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. Read Less

Patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) often have concomitant coronary artery disease (CAD) which may adversely affect prognosis. There is uncertainty about the benefits and the optimal timing of revascularization for such patients. There is currently clinical equipoise regarding the management of concomitant CAD in patients undergoing TAVR. Some centers perform routine revascularization with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) (either before or after TAVR), while others follow an alternative strategy of medical management. The potential benefits and optimal timing of PCI in these patients are unknown. As TAVR expands to lower risk patients, and potentially becomes the preferred therapy for the majority of patients with severe aortic stenosis, the optimal management of concomitant coronary artery disease will be of increasing importance. The COMPLETE TAVR study will determine whether, on a background of guideline-directed medical therapy, a strategy of complete revascularization involving staged PCI using drug eluting stents to treat all suitable coronary artery lesions is superior to a strategy of medical therapy alone in reducing the composite outcome of Cardiovascular Death, new Myocardial Infarction, Ischemia-driven Revascularization or Hospitalization for Unstable Angina or Heart Failure. The study will be a randomized, multicenter, open-label trial with blinded adjudication of outcomes. Patients will be screened and consented for elective transfemoral TAVR and randomized within 96 hours of successful balloon expandable TAVR. Complete Revascularization: Staged PCI using third generation drug eluting stents to treat all suitable coronary artery lesions in vessels that are at least 2.5 mm in diameter and that are amenable to treatment with PCI and have a ≥70% visual angiographic diameter stenosis. Staged PCI can occur any time from 1 to 45 days post successful transfemoral TAVR. Vs. Medical Therapy Alone: No further revascularization of coronary artery lesions. All patients, regardless of randomized treatment allocation, will receive guideline-directed medical therapy consisting of risk factor modification and use of evidence-based therapies. The COMPLETE TAVR study will help address the current lack of evidence in this area. It will likely impact both the global delivery of health care and the management and clinical outcomes of all patients undergoing TAVR with concomitant CAD. Read Less

The study is a breath biomarker validation study. It is anticipated that 300 patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) from 5 clinical sites in the USA will be enrolled. The study is funded by the US NIH and the US Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. Enrollment commenced in May 2019. Sputum, induced sputum, and oropharyngeal swabs will be collected and evaluated at each clinic as part of standard clinical practice. Excess sputum will be sent to Children's Colorado Hospital for molecular analysis. No swabs will be sent anywhere (other than the clinic from which they originate). Breath samples will be taken from all study participants. Read Less

The trial aims to evaluate the efficacy of Daromun neoadjuvant treatment followed by surgery and adjuvant therapy to improve in a statistically significant manner the recurrence-free survival (RFS) of Stage IIIB/C melanoma patients with respect to the standard of care (surgery and adjuvant therapy).
