Columbus, OH Paid Clinical Trials

This is a multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of ABX464 50mg and 25mg administered once daily (QD) as maintenance therapy in subjects with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis who have inadequate response, no response, a loss of response, or an intolerance to either conventional therapies \[corticosteroids, immunosuppressant (i.e. azathioprine, 6-mercaptopurine, methotrexate)\] and/or advanced therapies \[biologics (TNF inhibitors, anti-integrins, anti-IL-23), and/or S1P receptor modulators, and/or JAK inhibitors\]. This study is the maintenance phase of both previous induction studies ABX464-105 and ABX464-106. Read Less

This clinical trial is evaluating a drug called AC676 in participants with Relapsed/Refractory B-cell Malignancies. The main goals of the study are to: * Identify the recommended dose of AC676 that can be given safely to participants * Evaluate the safety profile of AC676 * Evaluate the pharmacokinetics of AC676 * Evaluate the effectiveness of AC676 Read Less

This randomized pragmatic trial will generate knowledge about strategies used to de-escalate tumor necrosis factor inhibitor (TNFi) therapy in patients with juvenile spondyloarthritis with sustained inactive disease and are treated at one of the 29 participating pediatric healthcare systems. This open label study will be conducted in the setting of routine clinical care and will compare the risk and timing of flare (Aim 1) and patients' lived experiences (Aim 2) across three arms.

The purpose of this study is: * To investigate the optimal timing for revaccination after the initial RSVPreF3 OA vaccine dose, * To evaluate the long-term immune persistence and safety up to 5 consecutive RSV seasons (approximately 60 months) of a single dose of RSVPreF3 OA vaccine, * To give the opportunity to participants who received only placebo in the RSVOA=ADJ- 006 study, to receive a dose of the RSVPreF3 OA vaccine and collect additional safety information.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of EPX-100 as adjunctive therapy in participants with Dravet syndrome. Read Less

Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis (LCH) is a type of cancer that can damage tissue or cause lesions to form in one or more places in the body. Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a cancer that begins in LCH cells (a type of dendritic cell which fights infection). Sometimes there are mutations (changes) in LCH cells as they form. These include mutations of the BRAF gene. These changes may make the LCH cells grow and multiply quickly. This causes LCH cells to build up in certain parts of the body, where they can damage tissue or form lesions. For most patients with LCH, standard-of-care vinblastine/prednisone are used as front-line therapy while cytarabine therapy has been used as therapy for patients who develop recurrence. No alternate treatment strategy has been developed for frontline therapy in LCH. The purpose of this research study is to compare previously used vinblastine/prednisone to single therapy with cytarabine for LCH. We will evaluate the utility of an imaging study called a positron emission tomography (PET) scan to more accurately assess areas of LCH involvement not otherwise seen in other imaging studies as well as response to therapy. We also want to identify if genetic and other biomarkers (special proteins in patient's blood and in patient's cancer) relate to the response of patients LCH to study treatment. Read Less

The effects of exercise on prevention and improved control of chronic diseases, reduced mortality, and improved quality of life are well established. Exercise has been shown to prevent heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, depression, and certain types of cancers. In addition to prevention, physical activity is included in the standard or care for many chronic diseases and used in treatment. For example, the American Diabetes Association has identified positive health behaviors like physical activity as foundational in the treatment and management of disease and improving overall quality of life. The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center Exercise is Medicine Program (EIM) is a physician referral program that aims to increase physical activity to prevent and reduce complications from chronic disease. The integration of technology among a 65+ population of EIM participants provides a novel approach to improving individual's health. Thus, our study aims to provide EIM participants aged 65+ with smartwatches in the hopes of increasing their overall physical activity levels. Read Less

This phase II trial tests the impact of canakinumab on biologic samples (buccal, nasal, and blood) from former smokers with increased risk of cancer. Canakinumab blocks the activity of a protein called interleukin-1 beta (IL-1b), an agent of the inflammatory system and is used for the treatment of different non-cancer diseases (like auto-inflammatory diseases). Giving canakinumab may block the inflammatory system and could have positive effects to reduce cancer growth. Read Less

To conduct an unblinded pragmatic randomized controlled trial (pRCT) "Improvement of PPROM Management with Prophylactic Antimicrobial Therapy (iPROMPT)" of a seven-day course of ceftriaxone, clarithromycin, and metronidazole versus the current standard of care of a seven-day course of ampicillin/amoxicillin and azithromycin or erythromycin to prolong pregnancy and decrease adverse perinatal outcomes among hospitalized pregnant individuals undergoing expectant management of PPROM \<34 weeks.

In 2014, a team of parents, nurses, and physicians created Patient and Family Centered I-PASS (PFC I-PASS), a bundle of communication interventions to improve the quality of information exchange between physicians, nurses, and families, and to better integrate families into all aspects of daily decision making in hospitals. PFC I-PASS changed how doctors and nurses talk to patients and families on rounds when they're admitted to the hospital. (Rounds are when a team of doctors visit patients every morning to do a checkup and make a plan for the day.) Rounds used to happen in a way that left out patients and families. Doctors talked at, not with patients, used big words and medical talk, and left nurses out. PFC I-PASS changed rounds by including families and nurses, using simple non-medical words, and talking in an organized way so nothing is left out. When PFC I-PASS was put in place in 7 hospitals, patients had fewer adverse events and better hospital experience. But it didn't focus on how to talk with patients with language barriers. This project builds upon upon PFC I-PASS to make it better and focus on the special needs of patients who speak languages other than English. This new intervention is known as PFC I-PASS+. PFC I-PASS+ includes all parts of PFC I-PASS plus having interpreters on and after rounds and training doctors about communication and cultural humility. The study team will now conduct a stepped-wedge cluster randomized trial to compare the effectiveness of PFC I-PASS+ and PFC I-PASS to usual care at 8 hospitals. Read Less

The overall objective of this study is to determine the effect of posterior tibial nerve stimulation (PTNS) on children with constipation due to pelvic floor dyssynergia. Our main hypothesis is that PTNS effectively treats children with constipation secondary to pelvic floor dyssynergia through modulation of anorectal function. We will perform a single-center, randomized controlled pilot study comparing PTNS to sham stimulation in children with constipation secondary to pelvic floor dyssynergia. Read Less

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about baclofen in pediatric patients with rumination syndrome. The main question it aims to answer is whether baclofen is effective in treating children with rumination syndrome. Participants will be asked to take baclofen or placebo for 4 weeks and fill out surveys regarding symptoms. Read Less
