Measuring Outcomes With Validated Exercise
Physical activity and its intensity level is a critical determinant of health. Digital Health Technologies, such as wearable accelerometers (wrist-worn watch-like devices), can provide researchers and clinicians with objective measures of activity intensity, duration, and effect on an individual's physiology which can provide important insight into overall health. The purpose …
Physiology of Human Brain Connectivity
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effective connectivity between different regions of the human brain in healthy participants, and the mechanisms which influence and modulate its development. Specifically, the investigators will examine the effects of cortico-cortical paired associative stimulation (ccPAS) which is induced by the application of …
Evaluation of PLG0206 in Prevention of Recurrent Infection in Patients Undergoing Debridement, Antibiotics, and Implant Retention (DAIR) for Treatment of a Periprosthetic Joint Infection (PJI) Following Knee Arthroplasty
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether the investigational drug PLG0206 can help reduce recurrence of infection in adults who have undergone total knee replacement and are receiving a DAIR (Debridement, Antibiotics, and Implant Retention) surgical procedure to treat a Prosthetic Joint Infection (PJI). The study will …
New Treatment Strategies and Epigenetic Biomarker for Management of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
SRD5A2 is a critical enzyme for prostatic development and growth, and the SRD5A2 inhibitor, finasteride, is used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). SRD5A2 is absent in 30% of normal adult men, which explains the resistance of a subset of patients to this commonly prescribed drug. This project proposes new …
Training Inner Speech in Children With Developmental Language Disorder
The complex and unclear relationship between language and executive function (EF) creates barriers to developing effective interventions for children with developmental language disorder (DLD) whose language difficulties often co-occur with impaired EF. Children and adults with typical language development (TD) facilitate their EF by using self-directed language, or verbal mediation, …
Treatment of UC With Novel Therapeutics
This study is a clinical trial being done to investigate the efficacy of drug BRS201 as a treatment in patients with active mild ulcerative colitis. Participation in this study will take 12 weeks long and the study is structured as a crossover study in which participants will take the study …
Open-label Extension Study to Evaluate Metreleptin in Patients With Partial Lipodystrophy
This Phase 3 study is an Open Label Extension of the APG-20 Study To Evaluate the Long-term Safety and Efficacy of Daily Subcutaneous Metreleptin Treatment in Subjects with Partial Lipodystrophy
Kidney Blood Flow During Exercise in Older African American Adults
The goal of this preliminary study is to learn if healthy older African American (AA) adults have a larger change in their kidney blood flow during exercise compared to White (W) adults. The main questions that this study aims to answer are: Do healthy older AA adults have a larger …
Targeted Treatment for Metastatic Prostate Cancer, The PREDICT Trial
This phase II trial evaluates whether genetic testing in prostate cancer is helpful in deciding which study treatment patients are assigned. Patient cancer tissue samples are obtained from a previous surgery or biopsy procedure and tested for deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA) abnormalities or mutations in their cancer. …
Effect of Physical Activity Pattern on Cardiometabolic Health
The goal of this study is to understand the interaction between the circadian system and physical activity. Participants will: complete 2 inpatient stays perform moderate exercise be provided with identical meals have frequent blood draws provide urine and saliva samples
