Measuring if Immunotherapy Plus Chemotherapy is Better Than Chemotherapy Alone for Patients With Aggressive Poorly Differentiated Sarcomas
This phase III trial compares the effect of immunotherapy (pembrolizumab) plus chemotherapy (doxorubicin) to chemotherapy (doxorubicin) alone in treating patients with dedifferentiated liposarcoma (DDLPS), undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS) or a related poorly differentiated sarcoma that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body …
Posterior Rectus Sheath Hiatal Augmentation in Paraesophageal Hernia Repair
This study will be a prospective observation study of the use of PoRSHA for repair in patients with challenging paraesophageal hernias. One of the most challenging problems facing foregut surgeons is the large and complex paraesophageal hernia (PEH) repair in the older patient. The investigator has demonstrated good outcomes and …
Testing the Addition of an Antiangiogenic Drug (Bevacizumab) to Chemotherapy (Carboplatin and Paclitaxel) Combined With Immunotherapy (Pembrolizumab) for pMMR, TP53 Mutated Endometrial Cancer
This phase III trial compares the effect of bevacizumab in combination with carboplatin, paclitaxel and pembrolizumab to the usual treatments of carboplatin and paclitaxel with or without pembrolizumab in treating patients with stage III, IVA or IVB mismatch repair protein proficient (pMMR) and TP53 mutated endometrial cancer that may have …
Quantitative Assessment of Autologous Fat Transfer
This is a single-arm, prospective pilot study that will objectively assess outcomes in patients electively undergoing Autologous Fat Transfer (AFT) for breast or chest wall reconstruction. Patients planning to undergo autologous fat transfer for breast or chest wall reconstruction will be enrolled prospectively. Participants will undergo standard photographs (2-D imaging) …
Testing a Standardized Approach to Surgery and Chemotherapy for Type I Pleuropulmonary Blastoma or the Addition of an Anti-cancer Drug, Topotecan, to the Usual Treatment for Types II and III Pleuropulmonary Blastoma
This phase III trial tests how well surgery plus chemotherapy compared to surgery alone works in treating patients with type I pleuropulmonary blastoma (PPB), and tests how well surgery plus standard chemotherapy with the addition of topotecan works compared to surgery plus standard chemotherapy alone in treating patients with type …

RELIVE (Randomized Evaluation of Less Invasive Ventricular Enhancement) Trial
A prospective, multi-center randomized trial comparing the Revivent System plus GDMT to GDMT alone. A total of approximately 135 subjects will be randomized in a 2:1 allocation ratio (90 treatment and 45 control), with approximately 128 evaluable patients and assuming 5% loss to follow-up. A primary safety endpoint will be …
STOP-UC: De-escalation of Therapy in Patients With Ulcerative Colitis With Histological Remission
The goal of this study is to better understand treatment strategies for people with ulcerative colitis (UC). Researchers will compare patients with UC in histologic remission (no evidence of inflammation or active disease on endoscopy and biopsies) who continue to take medical therapy to patients with UC who de-escalate (decrease …
