All Clinical Trials

The purpose of this study is to compare two methods for managing obesity in rural primary care patients. The first method includes quarterly 1:1 meetings with the participant and their primary care provider and the second includes a group lifestyle intervention over Zoom paired with quarterly team meetings with the participant, their primary care provider and their lifestyle coach, the coach joining via Zoom. Investigators will evaluate which method is best at helping participants lose weight over 18 months. Read Less

The purpose of this clinical trial is to better understand how people with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) respond to gradual dose reduction, or "tapering", of steroid medications like prednisone. Some people with RA have symptoms when steroid dose is reduced, while others don't. This trial will look at different patient characteristics, including levels of inflammation in the body, differences in the way the brain processes sensory information, and certain hormone levels, to help researchers better understand why different people have these different responses to steroid tapering. The hypotheses include: * Greater or equal to ( ) 30% of participants in each arm will develop taper intolerance (either subjective, objective, or both) during the study period * Greater or equal to 60% of participants will reduce Glucocorticoid dose by at least 5 Milligrams per day during the study period Read Less

This research is being done to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a drug currently known as Azenosertib (ZN-C3) in combination with the drugs carboplatin and pembrolizumab in metastatic triple-negative breast cancer. The names of the study drugs involved in this study are: * Azenosertib (a type of WEE1 inhibitor) * Carboplatin (a type of platinum compound) * Pembrolizumab (a type of monoclonal antibody) Read Less

The main goal of this first-in-human (FIH) study is to learn about the safety and dosing of GS-2121 when given alone or in combination with zimberelimab (ZIM) in participants with advanced solid tumors. The primary objectives of this study are: * To assess the safety and tolerability of GS-2121 as monotherapy and GS-2121 in combination with zimberelimab in participants with advanced solid tumors. * To identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) / maximum administered dose (MAD) and/or the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of GS-2121 as monotherapy and in combination with zimberelimab in participants with advanced solid tumors.

This is a prospective, randomized controlled (1:1) multicenter trial. The pilot study will be conducted up to three clinical sites in the United States. The primary purpose of this study is to compare the overall safety and efficacy between the leadless pacemaker and left bundle area pacing. Read Less

This study will demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the Edwards Lifesciences SAPIEN 3/SAPIEN 3 Ultra RESILIA Transcatheter Heart Valve (THV) Systems in subjects with a dysfunctional right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) conduit or previously implanted valve in the pulmonic position with a clinical indication for intervention.

The scientific goal of this study is to examine the effects of a ketogenic diet on hypoglycemia tolerance and brain function in people with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D) and to clarify the mechanistic role of ketones in this process. Glycemic management of T1D is typified by alternating periods of hyper- and hypo-glycemia. Because brain metabolism under usual conditions depends on glucose, acute hypoglycemia leads to immediate complications including impaired cognitive function and a counter-regulatory hormone response. Recurrent hypoglycemia is associated with functional and structural changes in the brain and contributes to the cognitive decline observed in individuals with diabetes. The state of nutritional ketosis (as it occurs during fasting or when following a ketogenic \[very low carbohydrate\] diet) may protect against these acute and chronic complications. As the body relies on fat metabolism, ketone bodies build up and provide an alternative fuel for the brain. Studies during hypoglycemia have shown better cognitive function and less hypoglycemia symptoms in the setting of nutritional ketosis or with ketone administration. This physiological benefit may have special relevance for people with T1D who experience hypoglycemia frequently. To date, no mechanistic studies have examined brain effects of nutritional ketosis in T1D; nor have any trials explored the potential relevance of this for diabetes care. Read Less

This is a multi-center (North-America), randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, wait-list, interventional, preventive trial of guselkumab in high-risk psoriasis patients compared to non-biologic standard of care. The primary objective of our proposed trial will be to test the hypothesis that a prolonged, unresolved skin inflammation coupled with musculoskeletal power-doppler ultrasound (MSKPDUS) abnormalities driven by IL-23 increase the risk for transition into PsA and that an intervention that targets one of these pivotal molecules (i.e., Guselkumab) will: 1. Diminish MSKPDUS findings at 24 weeks, and 2. Significantly reduce or prevent the emergence of synovio-enthesial phenotype at year 2. Read Less

A prospective, interventional study evaluating the safety of Y-90 TARE for tumor control of the right side and induction of left liver hypertrophy as part of a planned single-stage or two-stage hepatectomy for patients with CLM and insufficient FLR at the time of presentation. Read Less

This is a pilot phase Ib study of the feasibility and safety of dapagliflozin (in addition to standard of care treatment) for the treatment of pediatric patients with recurrent brain tumors and relapsed/refractory solid tumors. The primary hypothesis is that dapagliflozin is well-tolerated and safe to use in this patient population. The investigators also hypothesize that dapagliflozin will be efficacious as an adjunct to front-line chemotherapy assessed by decreased tumor markers mediated by its pleiotropic metabolic effects.

The overall objective of this study is to implement and test a strengths-based, community-driven intervention to reduce gun violence by (1) improving housing stability through providing financial assistance coupled with comprehensive financial education for the re-entry population as well as their family members, and (2) fostering greater support for mental health by training a trusted network of community members in trauma-informed counseling.

This is a randomized, phase 1b study to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and efficacy of sovilnesib at different dose levels to establish the Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) of sovilnesib in subjects with high grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC). Read Less
