Sensitivity of Angiotensin II Type II Receptors in Women Following Preeclampsia
Women who develop preeclampsia during pregnancy are more likely to develop and die of cardiovascular disease later in life, even if they are otherwise healthy. The reason why this occurs is unclear but may be related to impaired endothelial function and dysregulation of the angiotensin system that occurs during the …
Strategy for Improving Stroke Treatment Response
SISTER is a Phase-II, prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled, blinded, dose finding trial that aims to determine the safety and preliminary efficacy of TS23, a monoclonal antibody against the alpha-2 antiplasmin (a2-AP), in acute ischemic stroke.
Smartphone Flicker Fusion Test for Patients With Optic Disorders.
The purpose of this project is to validate a quick, easy-to-use and administer smartphone flicker fusion test. The app (called eyeFusion) can potentially be used to easily and quickly collect critical flicker fusion measurements on patients admitted with optic disorders as part of the clinical care process.
A Study of ASP1002 in Adults for Treatment of Solid Tumors
ASP1002 is a potential new treatment for people with certain solid tumors. Before ASP1002 is available as a treatment, the researchers need to understand how it is processed by and acts upon the body. This information will help find a suitable dose and check for potential medical problems from the …
IV vs Epidural Opioids + Epidural Local Anesthetic for Laparotomy Analgesia
The purpose of this research study is to determine if the two common ways of administering additional opioids (morphine like substance, narcotic) with an epidural, either mixed in the epidural solution or given separately through the intravenous, are equally effective in controlling post-operative pain
Comparing Approaches to Assess Nitric Oxide-dependent Cutaneous Vasodilation
The increase in skin blood flow in response to rapid local heating of the skin (i.e., cutaneous vasodilation) is commonly used to assess nitric oxide (NO)-dependent dilation and overall microvascular function. Historically, rapid local heating to 42°C was considered the standard approach for these assessments. More recently, many investigators have …
Pembrolizumab and Tazemetostat to Overcome Immune Tolerance Following ASCT or CAR T-cell Therapy in Patients With Aggressive B-Cell Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma
This phase II trial tests how well pembrolizumab and tazemetostat work to treat patients who have received autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) or chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy for aggressive non hodgkins lymphoma. A monoclonal antibody, such as pembrolizumab, is a type of protein that can bind to …
A Study to Test Inavolisib Treatment in Participants With Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of the combination of inavolisib plus enzalutamide compared with physician's choice of alternative androgen receptor pathway inhibitor (ARPi) or docetaxel in biomarker-selected participants with metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) who have received one prior second-generation ARPi.
A Comparison Of Primary TKA Rehabilitation Using A Smart Orthotic Versus Outpatient Physical Therapy
This will be a prospective, randomized, noninferiority clinical trial comparing rehabilitation methods post-total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Population of interest is adult hip/knee clinic patients over age 18 who are indicated for unilateral primary total knee arthroplasty. All TKA patients are prescribed physical therapy (PT) for rehabilitation post-operatively. The investigators will …
Reliability of Force Measurement Within the Carbon Fiber Orthosis Proximal Cuff
The primary purpose of this research study is to determine if forces within carbon fiber custom dynamic orthoses (CDOs) can be reliability assessed using Loadpad and Loadsol force measuring sensors (Novel GMBH, St. Paul, MN). An improved understanding of the forces acting within orthoses may help to guide future orthosis …
