Diabetes Clinical Trials in Madison, WI

The purpose of the study is to learn about the best way to enhance pharmacy-related care for diabetes self-management. This research is being done because we want to improve use of medicines and diabetes management among Black and Hispanic adults with type 2 diabetes and find out which of type of support may improve diabetes self-management for Black and Hispanic adults. Participants will be assigned to one of 4 groups, and will either: * receive care as usual; or, * receive added medicine management support from a pharmacist; or, * receive support from a Community Health Worker (CHW) to address life challenges; or, * receive both the pharmacist medicine management and the CHW support Read Less

This phase II trial studies how well lower dose radiotherapy after chemotherapy (Carboplatin \& Etoposide) works in treating children with central nervous system (CNS) germinomas. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays, particles, or radioactive seeds to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Carboplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. It works in a way similar to the anticancer drug cisplatin, but may be better tolerated than cisplatin. Carboplatin works by killing, stopping or slowing the growth of tumor cells. Etoposide is in a class of medications known as podophyllotoxin derivatives. It blocks a certain enzyme needed for cell division and DNA repair and may kill cancer cells. Researchers want to see if lowering the dose of standard radiotherapy (RT) after chemotherapy can help get rid of CNS germinomas with fewer long-term side effects. Read Less

This study aims to investigate whether a novel artificial intelligence based screening strategy (AI-Based point of caRe, Incorporating Diagnosis, SchedulinG, and Education or AI-BRIDGE), which allows primary care providers to screen patients for vision-threatening diabetic eye disease in the primary care clinic, improves screening and follow-up care rates across race/ethnicity groups and reduces racial/ethnic disparities in screening.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy (including durability) of up to 2 REACT injections given 3 months (+30 days) apart and delivered percutaneously into biopsied and non-biopsied contralateral kidneys in participants with T2DM and CKD. Read Less

The purpose of this research study is to determine if rifampin, an antibiotic (a medicine that treats infections), is effective in treating osteomyelitis (infection of the bone) of the foot in diabetic patients. Despite use of powerful antibiotics prescribed over a long period of time, many diabetic patients remain at a high risk for needing an amputation of part of the foot or lower leg because the osteomyelitis is not cured. Some small research studies have shown that addition of rifampin to other antibiotics is effective in treating osteomyelitis in both diabetics and non-diabetics. However, because few diabetics with osteomyelitis have been studied, there is no definite proof that it is better than the usual treatments for diabetic patients. If this study finds that adding rifampin to the usual antibiotics prescribed for osteomyelitis reduces the risk for amputations, doctors will be able to more effectively treat many Veteran patients with this serious infection. Improving treatment outcomes is an important healthcare goal of the VA. Read Less
