A listing of Newark, Delaware clinical trials actively recruiting patient volunteers.
This phase III trial compares the effect of dose-escalated radiation therapy to usual care in patients with locally advanced unresectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma who have received an initial 4-6 months of chemotherapy. Usual care options include additional chemotherapy, observation, or standard lower-dose radiation therapy. These treatments may delay tumor growth …
This phase III trial compares the addition of induction chemotherapy, with carboplatin, paclitaxel and pembrolizumab, to chemotherapy and radiation, with cisplatin and pembrolizumab followed by pembrolizumab maintenance for the treatment of patients with cervical cancer that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced). Carboplatin is in a …
The goal of this clinical trial is to characterize blood vessel function and oxidative stress (a harmful condition that damages cells and tissues) in emergency medical technicians (EMTs). The main questions it aims to answer are: Does an overnight shift work in emergency medical technicians reduce blood vessel function and …
The purpose of this study is to assess if storytelling is an effective approach for promoting lifestyle and behavioral change among individuals managing hypertension and to determine if storytelling interventions can help to reduce blood pressure and improve medication adherence.
Autologous Adipose Cell Therapy is a series of process designated to address the demerits of the traditional autologous fat grafting and dermal fillers, while enhancing the versatility and aesthetic outcomes. In this study, the goal is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Autologous Adipose cell Therapy for skin rejuvenation …
There is no consensus regarding the neurological substrate underpinning ASD. The investigators describe the novel concept of "social reciprocity network" and hypothesize that aberrant connectivity/oscillatory patterns affecting this network contribute to the core deficits in ASD. The overarching goal of this trial is to explore abnormalities involving the neuronal connectivity …
The objective of this proposal is to determine whether heightened negative affective responsivity (NA-R) to daily stressors is related to blunted nitric oxide (NO)-mediated endothelium-dependent dilation (EDD) in working age adults and the extent to which this association is impacted by major depressive disorder (MDD).
This study is being done to answer the following questions: Is the chance of rectal cancer responding the same if chemotherapy alone is given before limited surgery compared to chemotherapy and radiation therapy given together before limited surgery? If radiation therapy is not given, is quality of life better?
People who had a stroke at least 6 months prior and who still have difficulty with walking will each be randomly assigned to receive either moderate or vigorous intensity walking exercise. Both protocols will be performed individually with a physical therapist for 45 minutes, 3x/week for 12 weeks. Measures including …
The goal of this study is to learn how exercise timing affects blood pressure in adults with elevated or high blood pressure. Exercise can influence the body's natural 24-hour rhythms, including blood pressure patterns. A single exercise session can lower blood pressure for up to 24 hours, but it is …
