Anti-CD19, Dual Co-stimulatory (4-1BB, CD3ζ) Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cells in Patients With Relapsed/Refractory Aggressive Lymphoma or Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL)
Autologous, unselected CD3+ lymphocytes collected from apheresis, transfected with a lentiviral vector containing a 2nd generation chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) consisting of a scFv recognizing CD19 and dual co-stimulatory intracellular signaling domains (4-1BB and CD3ζ).
The Whole Day Matters After Stroke (BIG-STEPS)
Goal of research program: To understand person-specific factors, such as imaging markers and activity patterns early after stroke, that may guide precision rehabilitation to optimize function and improve recovery. Objectives Test the effect of reducing sedentary behaviour early after stroke on functional mobility and global disability outcomes. Determine the impact …
Chemoradiotherapy Versus Biomarker-Guided Therapy for Elderly and Frail GBM Patients
Currently, the optimal treatment regimen for elderly Glioblastoma (GBM) patients with poor performance status (PS) is unknown. Based on data for elderly GBM patients and the limited data for patients with poor PS, hypofractionated RT or a short course of Temozolomide (TMZ) may provide survival benefit without the added toxicity …
Immune-Mediated Pathophysiology And Clinical Triage Program
Many people develop joint pain, stiffness and swelling due to their cancer treatment that targets the immune system. The severity of symptoms ranges from mild to debilitating and sometimes requires delaying or stopping cancer treatment. The usual plan is to discontinue cancer treatment and give relatively high doses of a …
The Adult Degenerative Scoliosis Exercise Trial (Pilot Study)
Adult degenerative scoliosis is the most common spine deformity in adults. Patients present a lateral curvature of the spine and vertebra rotation. Curves meeting indications for treatment affect 24% of the aging adult population. Adult scoliosis causes pain, curve progression, and cosmetic deformity affecting quality of life and function. Pain …
Vasopressin vs. Epinephrine During Neonatal Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation
When a baby is born with a low heart rate or no heart rate, the clinical team must provide breathing support and chest compressions (what is call cardiopulmonary resuscitation or CPR). In some situations, the clinical team also need to give medications to help the heart rate increase. During CPR, …
Aerobic vs Resistance Exercise in Post-menopausal Women With Type 1 Diabetes
Participants will be asked to wear a continuous glucose monitor for at least three days on three separate occasions. One testing session will be a no-exercise resting control session (90 minutes). One will be a moderate aerobic exercise session (30 minutes of exercise, 60 minutes of recovery), and the third …
Effectiveness of Robotic Gait Training and Physical Therapy for Children and Youth With Cerebral Palsy
Robot assisted gait training is seen as a promising intervention for improving the walking abilities of children with cerebral palsy, but research to support its effectiveness compared to best practice physical therapy is lacking. This research consists of a randomized controlled trial (RCT) and a qualitative descriptive study that is …
Home-based Interventions for FrAilty preveNTion in AdultS With DIabeTes and Chronic Kidney Disease
One of the most common problems in people with diabetes (DM) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) is the high frequency of other coinciding medical conditions such as osteoporosis and frailty. Frailty in particular is very common in adults with DM and CKD and it can result in significant muscle weakness …
Stereotactic Radiosurgery Compared With Hippocampal-Avoidant Whole Brain Radiotherapy (HA-WBRT) Plus Memantine for 5 or More Brain Metastases
Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is a commonly used treatment for brain tumors. It is a one-day (or in some cases two day), out-patient procedure during which a high dose of radiation is delivered to small spots in the brain while excluding the surrounding normal brain. Whole brain radiation therapy with hippocampal …
