Study of NRTX-1001 Neural Cell Therapy in Drug-Resistant Unilateral Mesial Temporal Lobe Epilepsy (EPIC (EPIlepsy Cell Therapy))
This clinical trial is designed to test whether a single image-guided intracerebral administration of inhibitory nerve cells, called interneurons (NRTX-1001), into subjects with drug-resistant unilateral mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE), with or without mesial temporal sclerosis (MTS), is safe (frequency of adverse events) and effective (seizure frequency). NRTX-1001 comprises human …
Local Bisphosphonate Effect on Recurrence Rate in Extremity Giant Cell Tumor of Bone
The purpose of the clinical study is to investigate whether the local delivery of bisphosphonate as a surgical adjuvant can decrease the chance of a giant cell tumor of bone coming back to the same location. The hypothesis is that the local administration of bisphosphonate will decrease the rate of …
Measurement of Bladder Pressure With a Novel External Device (Cystomanometer) - Home Use
The investigators have developed a novel pressure monitoring device that hooks to standard urinary catheters that are used by patients with a neurogenic bladder on daily clean intermittent catheterization. The device has already been demonstrated to be accurate compared to the gold standard in clinic urodynamics. This study will assess …
Cognitive Control to Boost Physical Activity Adherence
This trial is designed to develop and test the efficacy of cognitive training strategies to improve self-regulatory capacities for middle-aged adults to adopt and sustain a physically active lifestyle. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can cognitive training designed to improve cognitive control improve physical activity adherence? What …
CMT Gait, Mobility, Balance - AOFAS Grant
The overall objective of the proposed research is to begin to better understand the potential benefits and limitations of ankle -foot orthosis (AFO) use in the context of mobility and balance during gait for individuals with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT). These benefits will be studied in comparison to those offered by …
Imaging Advanced NSCLC Patients Undergoing PD-1/PD-L1 Directed Therapy Using [18F]-FARAG
This pilot study uses \[18F\]F AraG PET imaging to evaluate the immunological response to checkpoint inhibitor therapy (CkIT) in patients with advanced NSCLC tumors. The study's main objectives are to quantify the change in \[18F\]F AraG PET signal before and while on CkIT therapy and to correlate this change in …
Vertebral Artery Origin Treatment Via Endovascular Techniques Registry (VOTER)
A retrospective and prospective registry of patients admitted for stroke and evidence of Vertebral Artery Origin Stenosis (VAOS).
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 …
Mirikizumab Real World Protocol
The goal of this observational study is to learn about how effective mirikizumab (Omvoh) is when treating patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) Does mirikizumab (Omvoh) lead to a reduction in symptoms at intervals throughout one year? Participants being prescribed mirikizumab (Omvoh) as part of their regular medical care for UC …
