A Study to Evaluate the Safety of CMTX-101 in People with Cystic Fibrosis
NCT06159725
Recruiting
CMTX-101 is a bacterial biofilm disrupting monoclonal antibody being developed as an adjunctive therapy to standard of care antibiotics. The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the safety and tolerability of CMTX-101 in people with cystic fibrosis (pwCF). The main questions the study aims to answer are: * Are single doses of CMTX-101 IV infusion safe and tolerated * What is the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of single doses of CMTX-101 * Do single doses of CMTX-101 induce development of ant...

Validation of Oxygen Nanosensor in Mitochondrial Myopathy
NCT04086329
Recruiting
Past mitochondrial disease treatment studies have been unsuccessful in determining treatment efficacy, and a major factor has been the lack of validated biomarkers in mitochondrial myopathy (MM). There is currently a growing number of potential new treatments to be tested through MM clinical intervention trials, which has created a pressing need for quantitative biomarkers that reliably reflect MM disease severity, progression, and therapeutic response. The purpose of the study is to measure th... Read More

Neutrophil and Monocyte Deactivation Via the SeLective CytopheretIc Device - a Randomized Clinical Trial in Acute Kidney Injury
NCT05758077
Recruiting
This randomized, controlled, pivotal study is intended to determine whether up to ten sequential 24-hour treatments with the Selective Cytopheretic Device (SCD) will improve survival in patients with Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) requiring continuous kidney replacement therapy (CKRT) when compared to CKRT alone (standard of care). This study is further intended to determine whether SCD therapy will reduce the duration of maintenance dialysis secondary to AKI. This study will enroll approximately 200... Read More

Hypertension Chronobiome
NCT03598894
Recruiting
Hypertension is a common condition with a concomitant burden of stroke, kidney disease and myocardial infarction. Its prevalence in developed societies is increasing as they age, and in less developed countries, as their populations assume aspects of the Western diet and lifestyle. Nocturnal non-dipping hypertension (NDHT) - the failure of blood pressure (BP) to dip at night - is estimated to complicate \~40% of hypertensives and is associated with poor outcomes. Randomized controlled trials hav... Read More

Comparing Proton Therapy to Photon Radiation Therapy for Esophageal Cancer
NCT03801876
Recruiting
This trial studies how well proton beam radiation therapy compared with intensity modulated photon radiotherapy works in treating patients with stage I-IVA esophageal cancer. Proton beam radiation therapy uses a beam of protons (rather than x-rays) to send radiation inside the body to the tumor without damaging much of the healthy tissue around it. Intensity modulated photon radiotherapy uses high-energy x-rays to deliver radiation directly to the tumor without damaging much of the healthy tissu... Read More

Animal-Assisted Visitation Program Chlorhexidine Trial
NCT04171817
Recruiting
Hospital-based Animal-Assisted visitation programs are important complementary therapies, but concerns with infection control may challenge the sustainability of these programs. Pilot data suggest that a low-cost chlorhexidine-based intervention targeted to the dogs involved in the visitation programs holds high potential to prevent pathogen transmission during sessions. In this study, the following aims will be tested: 1) To identify program-related risk factors for acquisition of hospital-asso... Read More
