We expect that RSU negatively impacts young children's ability to cope with emotions and boredom. Thus, …
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the safety and effects of a crystallized form of lithium, AL001, when compared to commonly used lithium carbonate in individuals diagnosed with bipolar I disorder. The main questions this study aims to answer are: How safe is AL001 when compared to …
The main purpose of the trial is to assess whether the trial drug, KST-6051, is safe and tolerable when administered orally to adults with advanced or metastatic solid tumors with certain KRAS mutations.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if veverimer will reduce urinary net acid excretion leading to reduced bone resorption in healthy adults with osteopenia. The main questions it aims to answer are: How much does each dose of veverimer (vs. placebo) reduce 24-hr urinary net acid excretion. …
Persistent air leaks (PALs) are a common postoperative complication resulting from tears in the visceral pleura or peripheral lung resections. Although highly prevalent with significant consequences, traditional assessment methods lack the capability to objectively quantify air leaks, which further complicates management, results in inconsistent decision making, and prolongs hospital stays. …
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn the formation and recovery rate of methemoglobin (MetHb) in severely sick patients with pneumonia who receive high doses of inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) therapy at 250 parts per million (ppm), not exceeding 300 ppm. Meanwhile, the benefits of the therapy to …
