To Compare the Efficacy and Safety of the HAV With AVF in Female Patients With End-Stage Renal Disease Requiring Hemodialysis
Recruiting
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the number of catheter-free days (CFD) and the rate and severity of any dialysis access-related infections between the HAV and AVF groups over 12 months in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) needing hemodialysis (HD). Participants will be stratified by location of the vascular access (forearm versus upper arm) and by type of AVF creation procedure planned by the surgeon at randomization (1-stage AVF versus 2-stage AVF). The comparator is a... Read More

Fenofibrate for Prevention of DR Worsening
Recruiting
This randomized trial will evaluate the effect of fenofibrate compared with placebo for prevention of diabetic retinopathy (DR) worsening through 6 years of follow-up in eyes with mild to moderately severe non-proliferative DR (NPDR) and no CI-DME at baseline.

Penicillin Allergy Delabeling After a One-Dose Versus Two-Dose Graded Direct Oral Challenge
Recruiting
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about dosing when testing to see if a penicillin allergy label can be removed from adults that had been labeled as "penicillin-allergic" previously. The main question it aims to answer is: - In penicillin-allergic patients that are at low risk of having an allergic reaction, is a one-dose oral challenge with amoxicillin (a penicillin-based antibiotic) as safe and effective as a two-dose oral challenge? Participants will, after being identified as hav... Read More

Bevacizumab Treatment For Type 1 ROP
Recruiting
Type 1 retinopathy of prematurity in zone I represents the most severe type of ROP and has the worst prognosis. It is unknown whether low-dose bevacizumab will be successful in these severe cases. Also unknown is the timing and extent of peripheral retinal vascularization after low-dose bevacizumab compared with the standard dose. The current study will evaluate whether doses of 0.063 mg and 0.25mg are effective as treatment for type 1 ROP, with ROP and retinal vessels all in zone I.

Testing the Addition of the Drug Relugolix to the Usual Radiation Therapy for Advanced-Stage Prostate Cancer
Recruiting
This phase II trial tests whether relugolix and radiation therapy works to shrink tumors in patients with prostate cancer that has spread in a limited way to 1 to 5 other parts of the body (oligometastatic). Testosterone can cause the growth of prostate cancer cells. Relugolix lowers the amount of testosterone made by the body. This may help stop the growth of tumor cells that need testosterone to grow. Giving relugolix with radiation therapy may help lower the chance of prostate cancer growing... Read More

Stable Sleep Pattern Before Sleep Loss
Recruiting
Sleep is now recognized as important for disease prevention. Too little or too much sleep contributes to cardiovascular disease. Leading health organizations recommend adults sleep 7-9 hours per night for optimal health. This recommendation is based on research that finds reductions in sleep duration elevate blood pressure and impair vasodilation of blood vessels. One question raised in a recent NIH Workshop report (PMID:36448463) is whether stable sleep patterns, irrespective of a person's slee... Read More
