MRI Risk Maps for Prostate Cancer Diagnosis Using Targeted Biopsy
Doctors leading this study hope to learn about a software that researchers at the University of Chicago have developed to help analyze radiographic images (different techniques for taking images that allow doctors to visualize the body's internal structures) of the prostate. Participation in this research will last about 12 months. …
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 …
Imaging of Retinochoroidal Vasculature in Patients Being Assessed for Cardiovascular Disease
This study aims to determine whether changes in retinal vasculature seen on SS-OCTA can be correlated to degree of cardiovascular disease as measured by carotid duplex ultrasonography.
Combining MyoCI With Memory Reactivation to Improve Motor Recovery After Stroke
This study will examine the combination of myoelectric computer interface (MyoCI) training with targeted memory reactivation (TMR) in chronic stroke survivors. The study aims to determine whether this training-plus-sleep combination will generalize to improve arm motor function over an extended training protocol in stroke survivors.
Avelumab or Hydroxychloroquine With or Without Palbociclib to Eliminate Dormant Breast Cancer
This clinical trial will assess the safety and early efficacy of Hydroxychloroquine or Avelumab, with or without Palbociclib, in early-stage ER+ breast cancer patients who are found to harbor disseminated tumor cells (DTCs) in the bone marrow after definitive surgery and standard adjuvant therapy.
Once Weekly Infant Corticosteroid Trial for DMD
The hypothesis tested here is that a lower dose of intermittent oral corticosteroids (5mg/kg/week) will be equally effective to the 10mg/kg/week dose.
Testing What Happens When an Immunotherapy Drug (Pembrolizumab) is Given by Itself Compared to the Usual Treatment of Chemotherapy With Radiation After Surgery for Recurrent Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma
This phase II trial studies the effect of pembrolizumab alone compared to the usual approach (chemotherapy [cisplatin and carboplatin] plus radiation therapy) after surgery in treating patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma that has come back (recurrent) or patients with a second head and neck cancer that is …
Diuretics Alone vs. Aortix Endovascular Device for Acute Heart Failure
Aortix is a circulatory support device for chronic heart failure patients on medical management who have been hospitalized for acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) and have persistent congestion despite usual medical therapy. Eligible ADHF patients with diuretic resistance (irrespective of ejection fraction) will be enrolled and randomized 1:1 to either …
LEVosimendan to Improve Exercise Limitation in Patients With PH-HFpEF
This study will evaluate the efficacy of TNX-103 (levosimendan) compared with placebo in subjects with PH-HFpEF as measured by the change in 6-Minute Walk Distance (6 MWD; Day 1 to Week 12).
Optune Delivered Electric Field Therapy and Bevacizumab in Treating Patients With Recurrent or Progressive Grade 2 or 3 Meningioma
The purpose of this research study is to determine the effects bevacizumab (the study drug) combined with Optune (the study device) tumor treatment field therapy has on meningiomas. Bevacizumab is considered investigational because the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not approved its use for the treatment of meningiomas. …
