Philadelphia, PA Paid Clinical Trials

To establish the safety and effectiveness of the Edwards PASCAL Transcatheter Valve Repair System in patients with degenerative mitral regurgitation (DMR) who have been determined to be at prohibitive risk for mitral valve surgery by the Heart Team, and in patients with functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) on guideline directed medical therapy (GDMT) Read Less

Sphere-9 VT is a prospective, multi-center, non-randomized, unblinded feasibility study. Adult subjects with recurrent, sustained, monomorphic ventricular tachycardia due to prior myocardial infarction will be enrolled and treated with the Sphere-9 Catheter and Affera Ablation System. Read Less

Biliary atresia, idiopathic neonatal hepatitis, and specific genetic cholestatic conditions are the most common causes of jaundice and hyperbilirubinemia that continue beyond the newborn period. The long term goal of the Childhood Liver Disease Research Network (ChiLDReN) is to establish a database of clinical information and plasma, serum, and tissue samples from cholestatic children to facilitate research and to perform clinical, epidemiological and therapeutic trials in these important pediatric liver diseases.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the safety, reactogenicity and immunogenicity of the Flu Pandemic messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccine (including dose-finding and dose-confirmation) administered in healthy adults 18 to 85 years of age. Read Less

This phase III trial investigates if perflutren lipid microspheres with ultrasound can be used to diagnose prostate cancer non-invasively. Definity (perflutren lipid microspheres) is an ultrasound contrast agent that is typically used for ultrasound bubble studies that involve the heart. Definity appears on ultrasound images as tiny gas-filled microbubbles. These microbubbles are about the size of a red blood cell and do not stay in a patient's body for more than several minutes, where they are excreted from the lungs and exhaled back into the air when breathing. Definity may enhance ultrasound images of the prostate and help doctors identify prostate cancer on ultrasound images. Read Less

This phase Ib trial studies the side effects of nivolumab and to see how well it works in treating patients with autoimmune disorders and cancer that has spread to other places in the body or cannot removed by surgery. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Read Less

This study will evaluate and compare the safety, efficacy, and tolerability of 2 doses of a recombinant adeno-associated virus vector (AGTC-501/laruparetigene zovaparvovec )) to an untreated control group in male participants with X-linked retinitis pigmentosa caused by RPGR mutations. Read Less

Parkinson's Disease (PD) is the second most common of the age-related neurodegenerative disorders, affecting over 1,900 adults per 100,000 over the age of 80 in the US. The prevalence of sleep dysfunction in PD is estimated at nearly 80-90% which includes sleep fragmentation, insomnia, rapid eye movement (REM or dream sleep) Sleep Behavior Disorder (RBD), Restless legs syndrome (RLS), periodic limb movement, excessive daytime sleepiness, and sleep apnea. Sleep is vital to homeostasis, cognition, and nervous system repair. The dysfunctional sleep accompanying PD adversely affects both motor and non-motor symptoms, resulting in diminished quality of life for both patients and caregivers, including impairments in mood and behavior, and increased morbidity and mortality. Knowledge of sleep phenomenology and pathology in humans has largely been informed by analysis of non-invasive scalp electroencephalogram (EEG), and despite the profound importance of sleep, the underlying neural circuits important for controlling sleep and wakefulness in humans remain poorly understood. This study assesses whether adaptive stimulation of the Subthalamic Nucleus (STN) drives changes in sleep episode maintenance and improves sleep quality. Participants are adults with PD who experience inadequate motor symptom relief, and who have been offered implantation of a deep brain stimulator system targeting STN for the treatment of motor symptoms (standard-of-care). Prior to surgery, participant sleep patterns will be assessed with questionnaires and monitored with a non-invasive watch-like device. Approximately four months after implantation surgery, participants will each receive 2 1-week deep brain stimulation (DBS) treatments and 1 1-week control session with no DBS in random order. Sleep patterns will again be monitored during the treatments and compared to the patterns before surgery. Read Less

This phase IIb trial tests whether Tri-Ad5 in combination with N-803 works to prevent colon and other cancers in participants with Lynch syndrome. Each of the three injections in Tri-Ad5 vaccine contain a different substance that is in precancer and cancer cells. Injecting these substances may cause the immune system to develop a defense against cancer that recognizes and destroys any precancer and cancer cells that produce these proteins in the future. N-803 may increase immune responses to other vaccines. Giving Tri-Ad5 in combination with immune enhancing N-803 may lower the chance of developing colon and other cancers in participants with Lynch syndrome. Read Less

The study is intended to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 2 different doses of DAP/TOM followed by bepirovirsen in participants living with CHB on standard of care nucleos(t)ide analogue (NA) therapy. The study also aims to identify an optimal dose of DAP/TOM for sequenced therapy with bepirovirsen for further clinical development and to assess the contribution of DAP/TOM to the sequential regimen.

Bio-Hermes-002 is a 120-day cross-sectional study that will result in a blood, CSF, retinal, digital, MRI, and PET brain imaging biomarker database that can be used to determine the primary objective. Digital biomarkers and blood-based biomarkers will be tested to determine whether a meaningful relationship exists between biomarkers alone or in combination with tau or amyloid brain pathology identified through PET images.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a novel RAS(ON) inhibitor compared to standard(s) of care (SOC) treatment. Read Less
