Atlanta, GA Paid Clinical Trials

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the impact of SCThrive (a behavioral self-management intervention) on patient activation, self-management behaviors, daily functioning, and emergency room visits in 260 adolescents and young adults with sickle cell disease (SCD) ages 13-21 receiving care at 1 of 4 pediatric SCD clinics. The main question\[s\]it aims to answer are: * Does SCThrive improve patient activation? * Does SCThrive improve self-management behaviors, daily functioning, and decrease emergency room visits? * Are any improvements maintained 3 months after treatment? Participants will complete self-management related surveys before, after, and 3 months following their participation in an 8- week, virtual group intervention with an accompanying mobile app (SCThrive). Researchers will compare outcomes for participants who receive SCThrive and participants who receive uniform standard care (SCHealthED which = standard of care plus SCD educational text messages) to see if there are differences in patient activation, self-management behaviors, daily functioning, and emergency room visits.

This is a first in human, Phase 1/2 open-label multi-center, dose escalation and expansion study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, PD and efficacy of RNK05047 when administered an intravenous (IV) infusion to subjects with advanced solid tumors, including diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). This is a 2-part study (dose escalation, cohort expansion) with sequential enrollment. Read Less

This study is designed to help us better understand how the immune system responds to the flu and how flu is transmitted in the environment. The ultimate goal is to develop better vaccines and drugs to protect against or fight the flu. This study will describe how the body's immune system responds to the flu virus during and after infection and how the flu virus is transmitted in the environment. The study will use a flu virus called A/Texas/71/2017 (H3N2), clade 3C3a produced specifically for clinical research in controlled conditions. The study will also assess the safety of the H3N2 influenza challenge in healthy participants. Mild to moderate symptoms are expected based on previous studies with this strain of influenza. Study volunteers will be recruited and screened from the general population of metro Atlanta through advertisements or identified from a database of research participants who have previously agreed to be contacted for future research studies. Participants will provide written consent before study participation. Up to 200 healthy adults, 18-49 years old, will be screened for participation. Eligible participants will take part in the study over 5 months. Enrolled participants will be admitted to Emory University Hospital during which time they will receive the influenza virus in the form of a spray in the nose or exposure to infected participants followed by an 8-12 day inpatient stay for observation. Follow-up outpatient visits will take place at the Hope Clinic of the Emory Vaccine Center. Participants will receive compensation (pro-rated for all visits completed) for their time and effort. There will be no costs to participants as a result of being in the study. Read Less

The objective of this trial is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Amulet LAA occluder compared to NOAC therapy in patients with non-valvular AF at increased risk for ischemic stroke and who are recommended for long-term NOAC therapy. The clinical investigation is a prospective, randomized, multicenter active control worldwide trial. Subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio between the Amulet LAA occlusion device ("Device Group") and a commercially available NOAC medication ("Control Group"). The choice of NOAC in the Control Group will be left to study physician discretion. Read Less

This study is a randomized, single-site clinical trial that will take place at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta at Egleston. The investigators want to see if in pediatric patients, giving Zofran prior to propofol, reduces the pain that patients often experience when propofol is injected through an IV. Subjects will be randomized to 1 of 2 groups: lidocaine (common standard of care), or Zofran. The investigators hope to show a means of improving pain control in their patients undergoing anesthesia.

This will be a multi-center, single arm, open-label study of Ovaprene, a non-hormonal intravaginal ring, to investigate the contraceptive effectiveness, safety and acceptability of Ovaprene. Read Less

This registry is a prospective, multi-center, single-arm study of pediatric subjects (ages 18-21 years) who are undergoing implant of the Inspire Upper Airway Stimulation (UAS) System for the treatment of moderate or severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Implanted subjects will be followed for 5 years post-implant. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to evaluate a multi-disciplinary, multi-setting intervention with the goal of improving outcomes for children who have experienced a mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). The project aims to improve and support mTBI diagnosis and management, and improve critical decision making by clinicians during their interaction with the injured child, their family, and their school.

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of Visudyne (liposomal verteporfin) and to see how well it works in treating patients with high grade EGFR-mutated glioblastoma that has come back (recurrent). Visudyne is FDA approved in combination with light to treat eye diseases. In this study we use Visudyne by itself like chemotherapy to kill tumor cells which may be sensitive to verteporfin.

This clinical trial aims to determine the effects of a 6-day low-dose methylprednisolone course on pain, nausea, and total opioid consumption in patients undergoing foot and ankle surgeries. The secondary objective of the study is to determine and monitor the effects of the course on complications following surgery and patient-reported outcomes Read Less
