A listing of Bethesda, Maryland clinical trials actively recruiting patient volunteers.
The proposed research is relevant to public health because stroke is a leading cause of long-term disability among older adults and communication impairments resulting from stroke have a significant negative impact on quality of life. By seeking to better understand post-stroke aphasia, this project lays the groundwork for development of …
Clinical Trial to investigate whether the use of a novel device to be used in conjunction with ultrasound in pediatric vessel cannulations is superior to ultrasound-only pediatric vessel cannulations in terms of number of cannulation attempts.
The goal of this study is to determine the efficacy of the 1) ribociclib and everolimus to treat pediatric and young adult patients newly diagnosed with a high-grade glioma (HGG), including DIPG, that have genetic changes in pathways (cell cycle, PI3K/mTOR) that these drugs target or 2) ribociclib and temozolomide …
The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether an interactive, video-based patient navigation program can improve cervical cancer screening among African American women who are currently overdue for screening. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can an interactive video navigation tool (mNav), when paired with in-person …
Background SARS-CoV-2 is the virus that causes COVID-19. Some people who recover from COVID-19 have symptoms that last long after the active infection ends. This is called long COVID. Sometimes, long COVID can affect the nerves and cause problems with sleep, thinking, the senses, and movement. Researchers want to find …
This clinical trial aims to evaluate the nature and duration of effects of three FDA-approved medications (propranolol, hydrocortisone, and morphine) on military-relevant cognitive, emotional, and motor performance following an exposure to a stressful situation (i.e., exposure to a tarantula) in physically healthy adult volunteers (aged 18 - 40) with fear …
The investigators will conduct a 2-arm 6-month randomized clinical controlled trial to evaluate the effectiveness of an oral Telehealth Intervention (THI) in preventing cancer-related oral complications, improving oral health maintenance and oral health related quality of life, and reducing systemic inflammation compared to Usual Care (UC) among unselected cancer survivors.
This first-in-human study will evaluate safety, tolerability, anti-tumor activity, immunogenicity, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of PHN-012, a novel antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), in patients with advanced solid tumors.
Background Some cancers have high levels of proteins called somatostatin receptors (SSTRs) on the surface of the tumors. These tumors can be in the lung, head and neck, digestive tract, kidneys, and in or near the adrenal glands. Researchers want to know if drug treatments that target SSTRs can help …
Background Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a serious mental illness that can put people at risk of self-harm and death. Many drugs are used to treat MDD, but it can take a long time for them to be effective. Researchers want to know if a faster-acting drug, (2R,6R)-hydroxynorketamine (HNK), can …
