Rhode Island Paid Clinical Trials

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of donanemab in participants with preclinical Alzheimer's Disease (AD). Approximately 800 additional participants will be enrolled in a 12-month addendum to assess safety of a different titration regimen. Read Less

This phase II trial studies the effect of duvelisib or CC-486 and usual chemotherapy consisting of cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, etoposide, and prednisone in treating patients with peripheral T-cell lymphoma. Duvelisib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Chemotherapy drugs, such as CC-486, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, etoposide and prednisone, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. This trial may help find out if this approach is better or worse than the usual approach for treating peripheral T-cell lymphoma. Read Less

This phase III trial compares an additional support program (text message reminders and/or telephone-based counseling) with usual care in making sure breast cancer patients take their endocrine therapy medication as prescribed (medication adherence). Medication adherence is how well patients take the medication as prescribed by their doctors, and good medical adherence is when patients take medications correctly. Poor medication adherence has been shown to be a serious barrier to effective treatment for hormone receptor positive breast cancer patients. Adding text message reminders and/or telephone-based counseling to usual care may increase the number of days that patients take their endocrine therapy medication as prescribed. Read Less

This phase III trial compares perioperative chemotherapy (given before and after surgery) versus adjuvant chemotherapy (given after surgery) for the treatment of pancreatic cancer that can be removed by surgery (removable/resectable). Chemotherapy drugs, such as fluorouracil, irinotecan, leucovorin, and oxaliplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving chemotherapy before and after surgery (perioperatively) may work better in treating patients with pancreatic cancer compared to giving chemotherapy after surgery (adjuvantly). Read Less

This trial collects research data and samples from patients who experience immunotherapy side effects to store for use in future research studies. Studying research data and samples from patients who experience immunotherapy side effects may help researchers better understand how to predict, prevent, and treat these side effects. Read Less

This phase II trial studies how well gemcitabine hydrochloride and cisplatin work in treating participants with invasive bladder urothelial cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine hydrochloride and cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading.

This phase II trial studies how well vismodegib, focal adhesion kinase (FAK) inhibitor GSK2256098, and capivasertib work in treating patients with meningioma that is growing, spreading, or getting worse (progressive). Vismodegib, FAK inhibitor GSK2256098, capivasertib, and abemaciclib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Read Less

Cigarette smoking remains the leading cause of preventable morbidity and mortality in the US. Use of multiple tobacco products is becoming increasingly prevalent, with dual use of e-cigarettes and cigarettes representing the most common combination. Though e-cigarettes are not without risk, completely switching from cigarettes to e-cigarettes likely reduces risk for tobacco-related harm. However, many established dual users maintain long-term smoking and the majority who use e-cigarettes non-daily are at an even greater risk for prolonged smoking than exclusive cigarette smokers. The Food and Drug Administration Center for Tobacco Products (FDA CTP) has announced plans to implement a nicotine-limiting product standard, capping the nicotine in cigarettes at a minimally or non-addictive level. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) demonstrate that adults who exclusively smoke cigarettes respond to very low nicotine content (VLNC) cigarettes with reductions in smoking, demand, and dependence. However, nicotine reduction RCTs to date have excluded people who regularly use e-cigarettes and therefore it remains unclear how a nicotine-limiting standard for cigarettes would affect smoking among dual users. Given the potential substitutability of e-cigarettes for cigarettes, reducing the nicotine in cigarettes could promote a transition to exclusive e-cigarette use among dual users unable to completely quit nicotine, but only if sufficiently appealing e-cigarettes remain available. E-cigarettes containing 5% nicotine-salt solution are currently most popular in the US, but policy makers have proposed restricting e-cigarettes to ≤ 2% nicotine to curb youth e-cigarette use, and several states have already set limits to reduce nicotine in e-cigarettes. Prior laboratory studies indicate that higher vs lower nicotine e-cigarettes serve as better substitutes for cigarettes among adult dual users. As such, a restriction on e-cigarette nicotine concentration could undermine the potential for e-cigarettes to substitute for cigarettes and diminish the benefits of a nicotine-limiting standard for cigarettes among dual users. This study is a 12-week double-blind 2 cigarette level (Normal Nicotine vs Very Low Nicotine) x 2 e-cigarette level (High Nicotine vs Low Nicotine) between-subjects factorial trial to investigate how a nicotine-limiting standard for cigarettes affects adult dual users and whether these effects are impacted by constraints on e-cigarette nicotine concentration. Outcome measures include cigarettes per day, cigarette dependence, and toxicant exposure. The research is highly relevant to FDA CTP domains of Addiction and Behavior because it will test whether reducing the nicotine content of cigarettes reduces smoking and dependence, and whether these effects are moderated by the availability of high vs low nicotine e-cigarettes.

The purpose of this study is to learn about the safety and effects of 2 study medicines (PF-07275315 and PF-07264660) for the treatment of atopic dermatitis (AD). AD is a long- lasting itchy red rash, caused by a skin reaction. This study is seeking participants who: * are 18 years of age or more. * Were confirmed to have AD at least 6 months ago. * Are not having an effective treatment result from medicines that are applied on skin for AD. * Are considered by their doctors to have moderate to severe AD. In Stage 1 of the study, participants will receive either PF-07275315 or PF-07264660 or placebo. Stage 1 is complete. In Stage 2 of the study participants will receive either PF-07275315 or placebo. In Stage 3 of the study participants who have received anti-inflammatory proteins, will receive either PF-07275315 or placebo. A placebo does not have any medicine in it but looks just like the medicines being studied. PF-07275315 or PF-07264660 or placebo will be given as multiple shots in the clinic over the course of 12 weeks. Stage 1 participants will receive shots at the study clinic on Day 1, Week 1, Week 2, Week 4, Week 6, Week 8, Week 10 and Week 12. Stage 2 participants will receive shots at the study clinic on Day 1, Week 4, Week 8 and Week 12. Stage 3 participants will receive shots at the study clinic on Day 1, Week 4, Week 8, Week 12, Week 16, Week 20, Week 24 and Week 28. The experiences of people receiving PF-07275315 or PF-07264660 will be compared to people who do not. This will help determine if PF-07275315 and PF-07264660 are safe and effective. Participants in Stage 1 and 2 will be involved in this study for up to 40 weeks (10 months). During this time, Stage 1 participants will have 13 visits at the study clinic, and Stage 2 participants will have 9 visits at the study clinic. Participants in Stage 3 will be involved in this study for up to 52 weeks (13 months); and will have 13 visits at the study clinic. Read Less
