Pandemic Influenza Vaccine in Organ Transplantation (PIVOT Trial)
Influenza is an important pathogen in transplant recipients. The current widespread outbreak of highly pathogenic H5N1 avian influenza (HPAI) in livestock, and the occurrence of several human cases of infection suggest that the next influenza pandemic may be soon approaching. Transplant patients will likely be uniquely predisposed to serious infection …
Feasibility of a Cognitive Stepped Care Program for Adults With Brain Metastases
Background: Cognitive symptoms are common and often severe in patients with brain metastases, significantly impacting their quality of life and ability to manage cancer care. Currently, there is no standard approach for routinely assessing and managing these symptoms in oncology clinics. Objective: This study aims to evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, …
Phase 2 Study of ADX-038 in Participants With Geographic Atrophy
Phase 2 study is designed to assess the efficacy of ADX-038 compared with placebo in participants with GA secondary to AMD. Safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) will also be assessed.
Recombinant Human Growth Hormone (rHGH) for Knee Osteoarthritis (KORR)
The goal of this clinical trial is to see if people with knee osteoarthritis would be willing to comply and adhere to incorporating Recombinant Human Growth Hormone (rHGH), specifically Saizen Somatropin solution, into their treatment plan. Participants will be asked to: Self-inject the treatment solution (placebo or somatropin) into the …
Threonine Requirement in Adults >60 Years of Age
Threonine is an essential amino acid and must be obtained from the diet. The body's capacity to maintain adequate mucin synthesis is directly related to the bioavailability of certain amino acids, including threonine, serine and proline (1). Moreover, the rate of mucin synthesis has been demonstrated to be directly related …
MRI Guided Closed-loop TMS-EEG
The goal of this interventional study is to develop an individualized approach using transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) in a high-precision manner. This approach will use TMS to modulate brain activity at multiple locations simultaneously. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and electroencephalograph (EEG) will record the responses and guide the stimulation. …
Effects of AbClo Fascial Approximation Device in Patients With Open Abdomen on Respiratory Mechanics
Patients who underwent an abdominal surgery and had the abdomen remain open are called to have an "open abdomen". To limit the risk of further widening of their wounds, surgeons can use AbClo, which is a non-invasive abdominal binding device, to keep the abdominal wall together (i.e., approximate the fascia). …
Chemoimmunotherapy Followed by Surgery for Oligometastatic Esophagogastric Cancer: (TORO Protocol)
Esophageal cancer and cancers of the gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) are among the most common malignancies worldwide. The outcome for these patients remains very poor. Patients with limited spread of their cancer (oligometastatic disease) have a better prognosis than those with widespread disease. Recent advances in treatment therapies, including use of …
Reducing Gastrointestinal Bleeding With Proton Pump Inhibitor Therapy in Acute Venous Thromboembolism
The investigators are studying whether treatment with a proton pump inhibitor called omeprazole reduces gastrointestinal bleeding in older adults taking blood thinners for a blood clot (venous thromboembolism). The purpose of this study, a pilot study or a feasibility study, is to test the study plan and determine whether enough …
E-field Guided iTBS for Treatment Resistant Depression
The purpose of this study is to establish how personalization of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can change markers of brain activity and improve treatment response. To do this, all participants will receive the same active form of treatments, but some of the participants in this study will receive intermittent …
