Utah Paid Clinical Trials

A Phase 2b study looks at the safety and efficacy of a treatment that is being investigated for people with certain diseases. This study will be conducted at multiple centers in the United States where participants with Gorlin Syndrome, also known as basal cell nevus syndrome, will be randomly placed into two groups; one group will receive the active topical gel, the other a topical vehicle gel, also know as placebo. Participants will apply this topical product to their face once a day for 6 months. The study will be looking at the number of new BCCs that develop on the faces of all the participants during this time. Read Less

Study to assess the diagnostic accuracy (sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive value) of DBV1605 for the diagnosis of non-Immunoglobulin E (IgE) mediated cow's milk allergy (CMA) in children with symptoms suggestive of non-IgE mediated CMA. Read Less

The cost of medical care in the United States far exceeds that of all other advanced economies and continues to accelerate at a rate unacceptable to our society, due primarily to the high costs of new imaging technologies and novel drugs (1). Cardiac positron emission tomography (PET) imaging is a powerful new modality for the non-invasive detection of provocable coronary ischemia in patients with low to intermediate-risk chest pain or its equivalent. Intermountain Medical Center (IMC) is performing approximately 6000 clinical cardiac PET scans annually. However, cardiac PET scans are expensive (i.e., billed at >$5,000/scan, average receivable revenue $1500-$2000/scan). Coronary artery calcium (CAC) is a sensitive marker of coronary atherosclerosis. A CAC scan (CACS), performed by multislice computed tomography (CT), is a relatively inexpensive (~$70-$150/scan), low-radiation dose test that marks the presence of coronary atherosclerotic plaque. The absence of CAC has been shown to be associated with very low coronary risk. ACCURATE will test whether a CAC-first strategy (i.e., risk stratification, when CAC ≤ 1, to medical management or to cardiac PET stress testing), performed routinely in symptomatic patients presenting for evaluation of possible coronary artery disease (CAD) prior to the cardiac PET stress test, can be used as a gatekeeper for progression to the expensive rubidium-PET stress (regadenoson) perfusion scan and be a major cost-saver without adversely affecting patient care or outcomes. Routinely, qualifying patients undergo CACS when they present for evaluation of possible but unknown CAD status and are referred for cardiac PET stress testing. In ACCURATE, those with CACS≤1 will then be consented and randomized to either a cardiac PET stress test strategy or a non-PET-driven medical care strategy. Subjects randomized to the cardiac PET stress test strategy will receive appropriate subsequent care depending on the outcome of the cardiac PET scan (i.e., depending on whether ischemia is present or not). Subjects randomized to the CAC-only arm will receive appropriate non-PET driven medical clinical management and follow-up. All participating subjects' electronic medical records will be reviewed indefinitely for clinical outcomes. Initial outcomes will be reported at 1-year, 2-years, and 5-years, with future analyses to be determined by the study investigators. The objective of this study is to test the hypothesis that PET stress test strategy will results in a decreasing in major adverse cardiac endpoint without exceeding $100,000 per quality-adjusted life year compared to a CAC-first strategy for screening suspected/possible coronary artery disease.

The primary objective of this study is to test the effectiveness of a proactive cardiovascular primary prevention strategy, with or without the use of coronary calcium screening, compared to current standard care, in preventing future major adverse cardiac events (MACE), including all-cause death, non-fatal myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, or any arterial revascularization among a moderate risk population with no current evidence of cardiovascular disease.

This study evaluates whether achieving 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH] Vit D) levels (>40 ng/mL) among myocardial infarction patients will result in a reduction of cardiovascular-related adverse events. Half of the patients will be randomized to receive standard of care and half will receive clinical management of 25[OH] Vit D levels. Read Less

To collect biological samples, clinical information and laboratory data from patients diagnosed with any healthcare-related conditions who are seen at facilities affiliated with Intermountain Healthcare, including patients and their family members, and to collect the same information and samples from a general population including disease-free subjects.

In this study, the investigators will collect EEG data in normal, healthy volunteers without a history of prior brain injury. This data will be analyzed by computer (quantitative, or qEEG) and stored in a normative database so that, in the future, the investigators can better understand and characterize the brain damage that can result from carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning and other types of brain injury.

In this small pilot study, participants (patients and healthy volunteers) will have blood drawn before and after the study intervention (hyperbaric chamber session or normal pressure oxygen breathing. This blood will be analyzed for neutrophil oxidative burst and cytokine analysis. Read Less

Perform a pilot study of quality improvement interventions for critical care physicians (intensivists) and respiratory therapists (RTs) to improve application of low tidal volume mechanical ventilation (LTVV) for patients with the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) using the computerized mechanical ventilation protocols currently available in the investigator's Cerner electronic health record (EHR).
