California Paid Clinical Trials

The study will be a prospective, randomized, multi-center, split-face, controlled, double-blind clinical trial to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of ELLANSÉ®-S for the treatment of NLFs. Subjects will be randomized to receive treatment (ELLANSÉ®-S) in one NLF and control (Radiesse®) in the contralateral NLF. A total of 126 subjects will be treated. The control and test articles will be supplied in sterile ready-to-use, pre-filled syringes. Initial treatment and any 4-week touch-up will be done consistent with initial randomization. Any retreatment(s) in either NLF will be with ELLANSÉ®-S. Subjects who meet Inclusion/Exclusion criteria will receive an initial treatment, an optional touch up at the 4-week visit, and may be eligible to receive retreatment at either 12 or 18 months after treatment (determined by when the fold has returned to baseline score, or the fold has lost at least 1 point on the Wrinkle Severity Rating Scale (WSRS) from optimal improvement). Retreatment to one side is allowed if only one side qualifies, but the other side may not be retreated at a later visit. If retreatment occurs, the subject may also be eligible to receive an optional touch up at the 4-week follow up visit. If a touch up occurs after the initial or retreatment injection, the subject will return for an additional safety visit 2 weeks after each injection. A week 4 safety visit will occur after retreatment touch-up. Primary effectiveness will be assessed at 6 months. All subjects will be followed for a minimum of 24 months after the initial treatment phase. After each injection, subjects will be contacted by telephone call/email after 72 hours and will return for a safety visit 2 weeks after treatment. At the week 4 visit, subjects will be assessed for a touch up. If a touch up is indicated as determined by the investigator, the investigator will use the same material as that used for initial treatment for the respective side. In addition, subjects will be seen at 6 weeks 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 24 months (from the end of the initial treatment phase). Subjects receiving a retreatment (at 12 or 18 months after treatment) will return for additional safety visits at 2 weeks and 3 and 6 months after this retreatment (the 6 month coincides with regularly scheduled visit). Subjects will have the option of a retreatment touch up injection at 4 weeks after retreatment, and if they do will have another call at 72hrs and a week 2 safety visit. The validated Wrinkle Severity Rating Scale will be used for assessment of the primary effectiveness endpoint (1). Assessment of the secondary effectiveness endpoints will include use of WSRS, the Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (GAIS), VAS pain assessment, the validated FACE-Q Appraisal of Nasolabial Folds Questionnaire, the FACE-Q Satisfaction with Treatment Outcome Scale and the FACE-Q Age Appraisal VAS. The study will last approximately 30 months. All subjects will be recruited within approximately 6 months after the recruitment of the first subject and followed for a minimum of 24 months after the initial treatment visit. Subjects receiving a retreatment (at 12 or 18 months) will receive a telephone call/email 72 hours after retreatment and they will return for an additional safety visit 2 weeks after retreatment. Subjects may receive a retreatment touch up at 4 weeks after retreatment, and if touched up, will have safety visits at 2 and 4 weeks. All retreated subjects will also be asked to attend month 3 and month 6 safety visits. The 6-month safety visit will correspond with the next study visit (e.g., 18 month or 24-month visit depending on when they are reinjected) 126 male and female subjects will be enrolled. This enrollment number accounts for a 20% attrition rate, to ensure an adequate safety population for long-term follow-up, and a Per Protocol Set (PPS) of at least 101 NLFs per treatment arm. At least 20% of treated subjects will have Fitzpatrick Skin Types IV, V, and VI. Of these, at least, 10% will be Type IV, 5% Type V and 5% Type VI. The investigative sites will be encouraged to enroll both male and female subjects. In addition, up to 2 non-randomized, non-split-face run-in subjects will be treated with ELLANSÉ®-S by each investigator to allow the investigator to become familiar with injection characteristics. This run-in cohort will be required to meet all study inclusion/exclusion criteria and will be followed in the same manner as the non-run-in cohort. Up to seven US sites will participate. Read Less

The CLEAN (ChLorine to reduce Enteric and Antibiotic resistant infections in Neonates) cluster randomized controlled trial in western Kenya will evaluate the impact of a multi-component chlorination intervention in health care facilities on maternal and neonatal health. Intervention facilities will receive a passive chlorination technology for water supply treatment and a reliable supply of sodium hypochlorite disinfectant. Both intervention and treatment facilities will receive infection prevention and control messaging. The goal of the study is to evaluate the impact of the intervention on bacterial contamination of water supply, on staff hands, and on high-touch surfaces in maternity wards, and the following outcomes among facility-born neonates and their mothers: (1) gut carriage of bacterial pathogens associated with sepsis one week post-birth, (2) gut carriage of antibiotic resistant bacteria one week post-birth, and (3) symptoms of possible serious bacterial infection one week following birth.

This study is being done to learn more about the drug tarlatamab in people with your condition. The purpose of this study is to see the efficacy (how well something works) of study treatment (tarlatamab) and whether it causes any side effects. Tarlatamab is being developed as an anti-cancer drug for tumors and is FDA-approved for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. Tarlatamab is investigational for the purpose of this study. Read Less

This study's overarching aim is to evaluate a new psychoeducation and process group for Asian and Asian American psychiatric outpatients. This is a 12 week mental health group which will focus on both educational content related to Asian mental health as well as increasing connection between group members. We hypothesize that participants in the group will experience a decrease in psychiatric symptoms at the conclusion of the group compared to their symptoms at the beginning of group. We also hypothesize that participants will feel more socially connected after the group. Read Less

This is an open-label, multicenter Phase 1b/2a study to evaluate safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD) and efficacy of GNS561 in combination with trametinib in Advanced KRAS Mutated Cholangiocarcinoma after failure of standard-of-care first line therapy Read Less

Prucalopride is a medicine used to treat constipation. The main aim of the study is to measure prucalopride concentrations in breast milk. Other aims are to check the growth and development of babies breastfed by their mothers who took prucalopride and to check if the babies had any side effects. During the study, participants will provide one set of milk samples over 24 hours using an electric breast pump. Breast milk samples will be collected at home and will be shipped to the laboratory. Also, participants will be asked questions during telephone interviews every 2 months in the first year of their baby's life. They will also be asked to complete growth and development questionnaires about their baby. Read Less

This is an open-label phase 1 study to determine the safety and tolebility of oral ABSK021 in patients with advanced solid tumor as well as the Recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of oral ABSK021. Preliminary antitumor activity will also be assessed. Read Less

This phase III trial studies magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) surveillance and prophylactic cranial irradiation (PCI) to see how well they work compared to MRI surveillance alone in treating patients with small cell lung cancer. MRI scans are used to monitor the possible spread of the cancer with an MRI machine over time. PCI is radiation therapy that is delivered to the brain in hopes of preventing spread of cancer into the brain. The use of brain MRI alone may reduce side effects of receiving PCI and prolong patients' lifespan. Monitoring with MRI scans alone (delaying radiation until the actual spread of the cancer) may be at least as good as the combination of PCI with MRI scans. Read Less

Background: Primary Liver Cancer is the second most common cause of cancer-related death worldwide. It is the cancer with the fastest rising incidence and mortality in the United States. Researchers want to learn more about liver cancer to help them design better treatments. Objective: To better understand liver cancer. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older who have liver cancer and had or are planning to have immune therapy Design: Participants will be screened with a review of their medical records. They will be asked about their medical history and test results. Participants will come to the NIH Clinical Center. During this visit, their medical records, test results, imaging studies, and tissue samples (if available) will be gathered. Participants will learn the results of a test to see if they have any mutations known to be connected to cancer. They will learn if there are treatment options for them. Participants will give blood, urine, and stool samples or rectal swabs. Participants will not have follow-up visits just for this study. If they join another NIH research study and have visits for this other study, their medical records; test results; and blood, urine, and stool samples may be collected. This will occur about every 3 months. If they have a biopsy or surgery on another study or as part of treatment and there is leftover tissue, researchers would like to collect some of that tissue. Participants will be contacted every 6 months by phone or e-mail. They will be asked about their health. They will provide any medical records, test results, and imaging studies. Participants will be followed on this study for life. Read Less
