Hypertension Paid Clinical Trials in Texas

This is a Phase 2 dose-titration study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of MANP subcutaneous injection compared to placebo in reducing baseline daytime systolic blood pressure (SBP), derived from 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM), in subjects with hypertension who are taking 3 or more antihypertensive medications with different mechanisms of action.

The primary objectives of this application are to 1) investigate the effect of increased daily consumption of the Keto5 XOGenius beverage on outcomes associated with elevated risk for various neurocognitive and pathophysiological conditions/diseases. And 2) to investigate the effect of daily consumption of the Keto5 XOGenius beverage on the following variables: waist circumference, body weight, and body mass index (BMI). Read Less

There is strong evidence suggesting that endoplasmic reticulum stress contributes to neurogenic and vascular hypertension in various animal models, however this has never been explored in humans. Therefore, this project will fill this gap by performing a single-blind, placebo-controlled trial in humans with hypertension. Read Less

The primary objective of the THRIVE Pivotal study is to demonstrate the adjunctive effectiveness and the safety of the TIVUS system in: 1. subjects with hypertension (HTN) receiving up to 2 anti-hypertensive drugs of different classes in whom the anti-hypertensive medications will be stopped for a 4-week wash-out period before RDN/Sham procedure and during 2 months after procedure. 2. subjects with controlled hypertension receiving up to 2 anti-hypertensive drugs of different classes and who accept to be off-medications for a 4-week wash-out period before RDN/Sham procedure and 2 months after the procedure Read Less

The study investigators are interested in learning more about how drugs, that are given to children by their health care provider, act in the bodies of children and young adults in hopes to find the most safe and effective dose for children. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the PK of understudied drugs currently being administered to children per SOC as prescribed by their treating provider. Read Less

Patients are being asked to be in this research study because medical researchers hope that by gathering information about a large number of children with pulmonary hypertension over time, their understanding of the disease process will increase and lead to better treatment. Investigators believe that pulmonary hypertension in children is different than pulmonary hypertension in adults and this study will help us understand those differences. Read Less

The purpose of study is to evaluate whether home visit programs are an effective method for HTN and T2DM management as compared to standard of care clinic visits. Read Less

Kidney failure has been recognized as one of the most costly chronic conditions among United States Veterans. Approximately 13,000 Veterans develop kidney failure each year, and most require hemodialysis initiation. Hemodialysis patients suffer significantly increased risk of death and hospitalizations, and excessive body fluid is a major cause of this. While empiric aggressive fluid removal during dialysis is one approach to limit fluid overload, this can cause dangerous decreases in blood pressure during dialysis that independently contribute to the high death rate. In this study, I aim to test a new strategy that prescribes fluid removal based on a patient's recent blood pressure patterns during dialysis. This clinical trial will compare my strategy to standard care and assess the outcomes of overall blood pressure change between dialysis treatments in addition to the number of times the blood pressure becomes dangerously low during dialysis. Another aim is to determine how differences in the structure and function of the heart influence blood pressure during dialysis. Read Less

The PCOT study is a multi-site randomized trial of patients 70 years or older with high BP. The main goal of the study Preventing Cognitive Decline by Reducing BP Target Trial (PCOT) is to conduct a large pragmatic clinical trial (PCT) to test the hypothesis that patients who receive care with a combination of clinical decision support (CDS) and team-based care delivered in primary care practices will have better blood pressure control and a lower incidence of mild cognitive impairment and dementia than patients receiving usual medical care. Patients will be recruited from UT Southwestern Medical Center and Parkland Health \& Hospital System. Read Less

The investigators' central hypothesis is that early combination therapy with two PAH-specific oral therapies that have been shown to be well tolerated in the pediatric population, sildenafil and bosentan, will result in better World Health Organization (WHO) functional class at 12 months after initiation of PAH treatment than therapy with sildenafil alone.

A randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, two-arm, multiple dose, multicenter, clinical endpoint bioequivalence study Read Less

The goal of this phase 1 randomized controlled safety and feasibility clinical trial are to determine the safety of external lumbar drainage (ELD) in select patients with severe Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). The main questions it aims to answer are (i) if ELD is feasible and (ii) safe to perform in severe TBI patients who have radiological evidence of patent basal cisterns and midline shift \<5mm without increasing the risk of neurological worsening or cerebral herniation. All participants will receive routine usual care. The study group will additionally have ELD for cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) drainage. A comparison will be made between the usual treatment plus ELD (interventional) groups, and the usual treatment (control) groups on incidence rate of neurological worsening or cerebral herniation events, and whether total hours with raised intracranial pressure (ICP) are different.
