Brain-Computer Interface Visualization Training to Optimize Muscle Activation Following Orthopaedic Surgery
After orthopedic surgeries like knee or hip replacement, some patients struggle to fully activate their muscles due to a condition called Arthrogenic Muscle Inhibition (AMI). AMI can slow recovery and make physical therapy less effective. This clinical trial is testing whether a special type of brain training-called neurofeedback visualization training-can …
Optimal Timing for Spontaneous Breathing Trials
This study aims to explore how the timing of Spontaneous Breathing Trials (SBTs) affects recovery in adult patients who are on mechanical ventilation in the ICU. SBTs are tests used to determine if a patient is ready to breathe on their own without the help of a ventilator. The study …
A First-In Human (FIH) Trial to Find Out if REGN10597 is Safe and How Well it Works for Adult Participants With Advanced Solid Organ Malignancies
This study is researching an experimental drug called REGN10597 (called "study drug"). The study is focused on patients with certain solid tumors that are in an advanced stage. The aim of the study is to see how safe, tolerable, and effective the study drug is. The study is looking at …
MAPK Inhibition Combined With Anti-PD1 Therapy for BRAF-altered Pediatric Gliomas
Pediatric gliomas harboring BRAF-alterations, commonly BRAFV600 mutation or KIAA1549-BRAF fusion, are currently treated with either chemotherapy or mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) inhibitors, such as, dabrafenib and/or trametinib. Unfortunately, some BRAF-altered gliomas can progress or have rebound growth after discontinuation of therapy. Data from BRAFV600E-mutant melanoma has shown potential synergy …
An Investigational Scan (rhPSMA-7.3 PET/CT) for Detecting Biochemically Recurrent Prostate Cancer, ENLIGHTEN Trial
This phase II trial evaluates an imaging technique (rhPSMA-7.3 positron emission tomography [PET]/computed tomography [CT]) for detecting prostate cancer in patients who have increasing prostate-specific antigen levels following prior treatment (biochemical recurrence) but who were prostate specific membrane antigen negative on their most recent PET scan. Contrast agents like rhPSMA-7.3 …
Testing Proton Craniospinal Radiation Therapy Versus the Usual Radiation Therapy for Leptomeningeal Metastasis, RADIATE-LM Trial
This phase III trial compares proton craniospinal irradiation (pCSI) to involved-field radiation therapy (IFRT) for the treatment of breast or non-small cell lung cancer that has spread from where it first started to the cerebrospinal fluid filled space that surrounds the brain and spinal cord (leptomeningeal metastasis). Patients with leptomeningeal …
Training for Urinary Leakage Improvement After Pregnancy
This is a multi-center, randomized single-blind nonsurgical trial conducted in approximately 216 primiparous postpartum women at high risk for prolonged/sustained pelvic floor disorders with symptomatic, bothersome urinary incontinence (UI) amenable to nonsurgical treatment. TULIP is a 3-Arm trial with two active interventions (Arms 1 and 2) and a Patient Education …
Evaluate the Safety and Effectiveness of the Polymotion Hip Resurfacing (PHR) System Compared to Total Hip Arthroplasty
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Polymotion Hip Resurfacing (PHR) System compared to total hip arthroplasty, for adults who require hip resurfacing arthroplasty due to 1) non-inflammatory arthritis (degenerative joint disease) such as osteoarthritis, traumatic arthritis, or 2) mild dysplasia/developmental dislocation …
Pathophysiology of Circadian Rhythm Delayed Sleep Wake Phase Disorder
The goal of this study is to understand factors that contribute to delayed sleep wake phase disorder (DSWPD). The investigators will examine whether patients with DSWPD exhibit alterations in circadian rhythms and sensitivity to light compared to healthy controls. The investigators will also test a new method of predicting circadian …
Genicular Nerve Block After Open Reduction Internal Fixation of Tibial Plateau
The investigators are conducting this research study to find better ways of treating pain following knee surgery. There is a standard (accepted) approach, which involves injection of numbing medication into the area around the participant surgical incision. The investigators hope to discover if providing numbing medication to a nerve that …
