This phase III trial compares the effect of 3 study approaches in preventing chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy: 1) cryocompression, 2) continuous compression, and 3) low cyclic compression. Taxane chemotherapy drugs, such as paclitaxel or docetaxel, can cause a nerve disorder called peripheral neuropathy, which can cause numbness, tingling, or pain in the arms and legs. The 3 study approaches will use a device, called the Paxman Limb Cryocompression System, made of wraps that cool and/or compress the arms and legs. This study may help researchers determine if any of the study approaches are able to prevent taxane chemotherapy from causing peripheral neuropathy. Read Less

The investigators propose to examine mornings after drinking as an optimal time to provide repeated, personalized feedback, with the goal of reducing hazardous drinking. Specifically, the investigators will further develop and pilot test a novel theory-based personalized feedback intervention (PFI) for heavy drinking young adults. Intervention strategies include personalized feedback (e.g., feedback on prior night blood alcohol concentration, consequences) contrasted with both drinking goals set at baseline and corrective normative feedback (e.g., how last night's drinking compares to peers). Up to 170 participants (50% non-college) will be randomized to one of three groups: PFI with monetary incentives for daily surveys, PFI without monetary incentives, or survey assessment only. The investigators will examine recruitment rates, retention rates, confirmation of intervention content delivery/intake, response rates to daily surveys, data quality, and ratings of intervention value. Investigators will test whether these indicators of engagement differ between those who do and do not receive monetary incentives for daily surveys. Further, baseline, post-test, and 3-month follow-up assessments will allow us to examine differences in drinking behavior between PFI and control. The results of the proposed research will result in a novel and scalable intervention for alcohol misuse among young adults, with potential to have an important impact on the public health problem of high-risk drinking.

The goal of this pilot randomized clinical trial is to learn if Neurobehavioral Therapy (NBT) works to treat motor functional neurological disorder (mFND) (also referred to as functional motor disorder). The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does NBT lower mFND symptoms? * Does NBT lower common co-occurring symptoms and improve functioning? Researchers will compare NBT to standard medical care (SMC). Participants will be randomized to receive either: * 12 weekly sessions of NBT, along with their SMC, * or continue receiving their SMC as provided by their treating clinicians. * all participants. regardless of group assignment, will complete a total of five in-clinic visits at the following time points: Baseline, 6 weeks, 12 weeks, 8 Months and 12 Months for self-report surveys to assess functional status, quality of life and mFND symptoms.

International, Multicenter, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled and Event-driven study to assess efficacy, safety and Tolerability of Baxdrostat in combination with Dapagliflozin on renal outcomes and cardiovascular mortality in participants with chronic kidney disease and high blood pressure Read Less

The investigators aim to test the effectiveness of a high maintenance daily dose of buprenorphine (24 mg) for improving outcomes among patients who used fentanyl compared to the standard daily dose (16 mg). The main question it aims to answer is: will patients who are randomly assigned to the high 24 mg maintenance dose, as compared to patients randomly assigned to the standard 16 mg maintenance dose, have improved retention in buprenorphine treatment (primary outcome), improved treatment response based on use of non-prescribed opioids (secondary outcome), decreased opioid cravings (secondary outcome), and decreased risk of fatal and non-fatal opioid overdose (exploratory outcome).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of tozorakimab, as an add-on to SoC in patients with viral lung infection requiring supplemental oxygen, on the prevention of death or progression to IMV/ECMO. Read Less

This is a multicenter randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2 study designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of two doses of CT1812 compared to placebo in participants diagnosed with early Alzheimer's disease. Read Less

In parallel with the growth of American Thrombosis and Hemostasis Network's (ATHN) clinical studies, the number of new therapies for all congenital and acquired hematologic conditions, not just those for bleeding and clotting disorders, is increasing significantly. Some of the recently FDA-approved therapies for congenital and acquired hematologic conditions have yet to demonstrate long-term safety and effectiveness beyond the pivotal trials that led to their approval. In addition, results from well-controlled, pivotal studies often cannot be replicated once a therapy has been approved for general use.(1,2,3,4) In 2019 alone, the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued approvals for twenty-four new therapies for congenital and acquired hematologic conditions.(5) In addition, almost 10,000 new studies for hematologic diseases are currently registered on www.clinicaltrials.gov.(6) With this increase in potential new therapies on the horizon, it is imperative that clinicians and clinical researchers in the field of non-neoplastic hematology have a uniform, secure, unbiased, and enduring method to collect long-term safety and efficacy data. ATHN Transcends is a cohort study to determine the safety, effectiveness, and practice of therapies used in the treatment of participants with congenital or acquired non-neoplastic blood disorders and connective tissue disorders with bleeding tendency. The study consists of 7 cohorts with additional study "arms" and "modules" branching off from the cohorts. The overarching objective of this longitudinal, observational study is to characterize the safety, effectiveness and practice of treatments for all people with congenital and acquired hematologic disorders in the US. As emphasized in a recently published review, accurate, uniform and quality national data collection is critical in clinical research, particularly for longitudinal cohort studies covering a lifetime of biologic risk.(7) Read Less

The collaborative care model (CCM) is a health services intervention that integrates mental health care in primary care settings. The goal of this study is to adapt the CCM to the perinatal care context, including community co-designed adaptations to enhance health equity (COMPASS+). The main objectives of the study are to: 1. Evaluate the effect of COMPASS+ on depression symptom outcomes. Specifically we will evaluate population-level depression symptom trajectories and the prevalence of suicidal ideation among. We will also measure rates of depression response and remission for those who have elevated screen scores (i.e., PHQ9 ≥ 10) 2. Adapt, optimize, and evaluate COMPASS+ implementation strategies to the unique context of perinatal care and evaluate implementation outcomes. The RE-AIM framework will be used to evaluate implementation outcomes (acceptability, appropriateness, feasibility, and fidelity). We hypothesize that variability in effectiveness outcomes will be attributable to variability in fidelity to the implementation strategies or in implementation outcomes. 3. Identify the effect of COMPASS+ on perinatal depression and implementation outcomes across racial and ethnic subgroups. Read Less

This study will examine the safety and efficacy of TNX-102 SL to reduce ASR symptoms and behavioral changes among patients presenting to the emergency department (ED) after motor vehicle collision (MVC). Specifically, the investigators will perform the Optimizing Acute Stress reaction Interventions with TNX-102 SL (OASIS) Trial, a double-blind placebo-controlled randomized clinical trial (RCT) to determine if TNX-102 SL initiated in the ED in the hours after MVC to high risk individuals, treats/reduces acute stress reaction (ASR)/acute stress disorder (ASD) symptoms (primary outcome), improves neurocognitive function, and prevents/reduces posttraumatic stress (PTS) symptoms (secondary outcomes) long term. 180 participants will be randomized, receive study drug in ED and be discharged with a 2-week drug supply. Prior to initial dose of study drug administration, and during the hours, days, and weeks after participants will receive serial longitudinal assessments of psychological and somatic symptoms, neurocognitive function, and adverse events.
