Effects of MK-3475 (Pembrolizumab) on the Breast Tumor Microenvironment in Triple Negative Breast Cancer
Assess response to pembrolizumab in both primary tumor, normal breast stroma, circulating lymphocytes and serum exosomes in treatment naive triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) patients. Assess for change in tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILS) both stromal (sTILS) and intraepithelial (iTILS) in newly diagnosed early stage TNBC patients treated with two doses of …
Adoptive T Cell Immunotherapy for Advanced Melanoma Using Engineered Lymphocytes
Phase I clinical trial to determine the Phase II dose of autologous TIL 1383I TCR gene modified T Cells using a retrovirus. This is a novel National Cancer Institute (NCI) funded investigator initiated therapy for patients with advanced melanoma.
STAT: Standard Therapy Plus Active Therapy
The objective of the study is to assess the efficacy of STAT, an activity-based therapy protocol compared to standard therapy (ST) to improve functional outcome and reduce disability in patients recovering from burn injury. This randomized multi-center trial is designed with two parallel treatment groups: STAT and ST. Efficacy of …
Medrol Dosepak for Outpatient Total Knee Arthroplasty
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of an oral methylprednisolone taper on acute postoperative pain, function, opioid consumption, nausea, and complications following outpatient total knee arthroplasty (TKA). We hypothesize that administration of an oral methylprednisolone taper starting on postoperative day 1 (POD 1) following TKA will …
Buprenorphine, Clonidine, and Dexamethasone on Duration of Brachial Plexus Blocks for Upper Extremity Surgery
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if there is a difference in morphine requirements in patients after upper extremity surgeries including shoulder arthroscopy. The main question it aims to answer is whether there is a difference between Interscalene brachial plexus blocks with the addition of buprenorphine, dexamethasone, …
An Enhanced Vaginal Dilator to Reduce Radiation-Induced Vaginal Stenosis
This is a randomized control trial aimed to decreased radiation-induced vaginal stenosis in patients with endometrial or cervical cancer treated with post-operative external beam radiation therapy with or without brachytherapy. The intervention is an enhanced vaginal dilator model, including a silicone band placed at the desired depth of dilator insertion. …
rTMS to Improve Cognition in Parkinson's
The purpose of this study is to examine safety, feasibility, and the behavioral and brain effects of a non-invasive treatment, repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), for Veterans with Parkinson's disease and mild impairments in their thinking. The hypothesis is that rTMS can improve thinking for people with Parkinson's disease who …
Immunogenicity of Zoster Vaccine in Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant Recipients
This is a phase II study that will examine the immunogenicity of the Shingrix vaccine in patients following an allogeneic stem cell transplant.
Crizotinib in Treating Patients With Stage IB-IIIA Non-small Cell Lung Cancer That Has Been Removed by Surgery and ALK Fusion Mutations (An ALCHEMIST Treatment Trial)
This randomized phase III trial studies how well crizotinib works in treating patients with stage IB-IIIA non-small cell lung cancer that has been removed by surgery and has a mutation in a protein called anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK). Mutations, or changes, in ALK can make it very active and important …
Spinal Cord Stimulation for Functional Recovery in Humans With Tetraplegia
In support of the long-term goal of developing new strategies to increase limb function after SCI, the objectives of this proposal are to: 1) Examine the behavioral and physiological effects of TESS on upper-limb muscles after cervical SCI; and 2) Maximize the recovery of reaching and grasping potential by using …
