Pennsylvania Paid Clinical Trials

The project aims to evaluate a nurse-led intervention to reduce inappropriate emergency department (ED) use among adult patients seen at Geisinger's Community Medicine Service Line (CMSL) clinics. The intervention occurs immediately following an appointment where a patient receives a diagnosis of an ambulatory sensitive condition (ASC; i.e., a condition considered to be a risk factor for near-term ED use). The evaluation will compare eligible patients with an ASC who were randomly assigned to receive follow-up outreach (patient portal message or call) from a nurse (who was automatically prompted via the Epic electronic health record system to initiate outreach) with those who were randomly assigned to receive standard care. Analyses will be intent-to-treat. The primary outcome is ED use in the week following the appointment. We ran an earlier version of this intervention (NCT06798389). The current study is modified based on results and clinical guidance. Specifically, more conditions will be included as qualifying ASCs for enrollment. Patients under 30 will be excluded. And rather than calling all patients as in the original study, patient portal messages will be sent to patient portal users (i.e., those with a portal account and 1+ login in the 6 months prior to enrollment). Finally, in the first study, the intervention was differentially effective by age group (\<45, 45-64, 65+). Our primary analysis will be conducted separately by age group, though we will conduct an analysis combining across age groups. We will also run an analysis separately by modality (call, portal message) to determine the effectiveness of each modality individually for eligible patients. We will run the study until we reach at least 4,330 patients in each of the following groups: patients aged 30-45, patients aged 45-64, patients aged 65+, patients eligible for a call, patients eligible for a portal message. Our estimated sample size is at least 4,330x3 = 12,990, because by the time we reach our target in each of the three age groups, we expect we will already have reached 4,330 patients in each of the individual modalities (but if that is not the case, we will continue running the study until we reach 4,330 in each age group and modality). We may be required to stop the study early at the direction of clinical or operational leaders. We will not analyze data before deciding to stop the study. Read Less

In this study, researchers will learn more about the effects and safety of BIIB141, also known as omaveloxolone or SKYCLARYS®. This drug has been approved, or made available for doctors to prescribe, for people with Friedreich's Ataxia (FA) who are at least 16 years old. But, it is not yet available for children and teens with FA who are younger than 16 years old. The main objective of this study is to learn how BIIB141 works in the body and about its safety in children and teens who are 2 to 15 years old. The main questions researchers want to answer in this study are: * How does BIIB141 affect the participants' FA symptoms balance and stability? * How many participants have medical problems during the study? * Are there any changes in the participants' overall health during the study? * Are there any changes in the participants' heart health? * Are there any changes in how the participants move through puberty? Puberty is the time in someone's life when their body changes from a child to an adult. Researchers will also learn more about: - How the body processes BIIB141 in children and teens This study will be done as follows: * Participants will be screened to check if they can join the study. The screening period will be up to 28 days, after which participants will check into their study research center. * There are 2 parts in this study. During Part 1, participants will take either BIIB141 or a placebo once a day. * In Part 1, participants will take BIIB141 or the placebo in a study research center on Day 1, and then at in-person visits at Week 4, Week 12, Week 26, and Week 52. On all other days, they will take BIIB141 or the placebo at home. Part 1 lasts up to 52 weeks. * During Part 2, participants from Part 1 will either continue taking BIIB141 or start it if they were taking the placebo. Part 2 will last up to 104 weeks. * In Part 1, participants will have up to 10 visits to their study research center and a phone call at Week 2. In Part 2, participants will have visits at Weeks 4, 8,12, 26, and every 26 weeks after that until they leave the study, and a phone call at Week 2. There will be a final phone call to check on the participants' health 31 days after their last dose. * Each participant will be in the study for up to about 3 years Read Less

Participants in the originator study will have the opportunity to continue their assigned study intervention or continue their follow-up visits by transitioning to this study. This study will evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of pirtobrutinib. Read Less

This is a study of retatrutide in participants with obesity. The main purpose is to learn more about how retatrutide maintains body weight loss. The study will have two treatment phases: an 80 week lead-in phase in which all participants will take retatrutide dose 1 and a 36 week randomized, double-blinded phase in which participants will either take retatrutide dose 1, retatrutide dose 2, or switch to placebo. Participation in the study will last around 125 weeks. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the abilities of Cystatin C (CysC) and CysC-based estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) equations to characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) profiles of meropenem and cefepime relative to Serum Creatinine (SCR), Serum Creatinine based Equation (SCRE)and iohexol at the population and individual levels in critically ill adult patients with suspected or documented AMR Gram-negative infections. We hypothesize that CysC and CysC-based eGFR equations will characterize the PK profiles of meropenem and cefepime at the population and individual levels with greater accuracy and precision than SCR and SCREs. Iohexol will be administered to patients enrolled in the study and serve as the reference indicator of measured Glomerular Filtration Rate (mGFR), which is the gold standard assessment of kidney function. We hypothesize that the predictive performances of CysC and CysC-based eGFR equations in estimating the PK profiles of meropenem and cefepime at the population and individual levels will be comparable to iohexol. The information obtained in this study will be used to develop PK/pharmacodynamics (PD) optimized meropenem and cefepime dosing schemes based on the renal function biomarker population PK (PopPK) model with the best predictive performance for clinical use in the treatment of critically ill adult patients with suspected or documented AMR Gram-negative infections and varying degrees of renal function. The primary objective of this study is to compare the abilities of renal function biomarkers (CysC, CysC-based eGFR equations, SCR, SCREs) relative to iohexol to characterize the PK profiles of meropenem and cefepime in critically ill adult patients with suspected or documented AMR Gram-negative infections.

This observational research study is to better understand patients with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) who have recently been prescribed DUPIXENT® (dupilumab). The purpose of this research study is to look at how DUPIXENT is used in normal care of patients with EoE. Possible benefits to others include a better understanding of EoE and helping to inform research and clinical trial design leading to treatment decisions in this patient population going forward. Patient questionnaires will measure the following: * How EoE makes one feel * EoE symptoms * How EoE affects quality-of-life * How EoE impacts aspects of daily life * How difficult it is to swallow * How EoE symptoms have changed throughout the study Read Less

This phase II MyeloMATCH treatment trial studies how well ASTX727 and venetoclax plus enasidenib works compared to ASTX727 and venetoclax alone for the treatment of older patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or younger patients who are considered unfit for standard treatment, and who have an abnormal change (mutation) in the IDH2 gene. This gene mutation can cause AML to grow and spread. This trial is being done to see if adding enasidenib to the usual treatment can help more patients with the IDH2 gene get rid of AML. Cedazuridine is in a class of medications called cytidine deaminase inhibitors. It prevents the breakdown of decitabine, making it more available in the body so that decitabine will have a greater effect. Decitabine is in a class of medications called hypomethylation agents. It works by helping the bone marrow produce normal blood cells and by killing abnormal cells in the bone marrow. Venetoclax is in a class of medications called B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2) inhibitors. It may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking Bcl-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. Enasidenib works by stopping the growth and spread of tumor cells that have the IDH2 mutation. Giving ASTX727 and venetoclax plus enasidenib may work better in treating AML patients with the IDH2 mutation. Read Less
