A Basket Clinical Study to Assess Glycerol Tributyrate in Patients With Mitochondrial Encephalopathy, Lactic Acidosis, Stroke-like Episodes (MELAS) or Leber's Hereditary Optic Neuropathy-Plus (LHON-Plus)
This is a parallel arm non-randomized dose-escalation, open-label basket exploratory phase 1 clinical trial where Mitochondrial encephalopathy, lactic acidosis, stroke-like episodes (MELAS) and Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy-Plus (LHON-Plus) participants will undergo simultaneous enrollment in two disease-based arms and receive daily oral doses of glycerol tributyrate to assess its safety and …
Visual Plasticity Following Brain Lesions
The VIBRANT (Vision Improvement through Behavioral Rehabilitation And Neuroplasticity Training) study is a prospective, double-blind, crossover design (within-subject) in participants with homonymous hemianopia-a type of visual field loss resulting from damage to the post-chiasmatic visual pathways. It aims to investigate whether transcranial random noise stimulation (tRNS) combined with perceptual learning-based …
Mindful Self-compassion for Anxiety and Depression: Impact of Delivery Method
The study will compare the delivery of an 8-week Mindful Self-Compassion training, in-person against video-conference, on anxiety and depression symptom severity in patients with diagnosed anxiety disorders (generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety disorder, and panic disorder) or major depressive disorder or dysthymia.
Study to Understand the Genetic Risk of Developing an Immune Response After Blood Transfusions Among Individuals With Sickle Cell Disease
The purpose of this research study is to look at genes and determine how they interact with each other to find changes that could explain why some people's immune systems may respond to blood transfusions. This response is called an alloimmune response. We strongly believe that when someone has an …
The Esophageal String Test as a Diagnostic Screening Tool for Eosinophilic Esophagitis Among Africans With Dysphagia in Mali and the United States
Background Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is a disease that causes inflammation in the esophagus. The esophagus is the tube that moves food from the mouth to the stomach. Diagnosing EoE currently requires a specialized tool called an endoscope. The esophageal string test (EST) is another test; the EST collects fluid from …
Study of Intralesional Cemiplimab in Adult Patients With Early Stage Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma
This study will test a study drug called cemiplimab to see if it can help treat early-stage cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC), a type of skin cancer. Cemiplimab works by helping the immune system to kill cancer cells. It binds to a protein called programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) on the …
Base Editing Hematopoietic Stem Cell and T Cell Gene Therapy for CD40L-HyperIgM Syndrome: Single Patient Study
Background X-linked hyper-IgM (HIGM) syndrome is caused by a mutation in the CD40 ligand (CD40L) gene. People with this disease have white blood cells that do not work properly. These people are at risk of severe infections and autoimmune diseases. Researchers want to know if these base-edited stem cells and …
ELEVATE High-Risk PCI Pivotal Study
The ELEVATE III Pivotal Study is a prospective, multi-center, open-label, interventional, randomized, controlled study with an active control group. The study is intended to assess the safety and efficacy of the Elevate™ percutaneous Left Ventricular Assist Device System in patients referred to high-risk percutaneous coronary interventions (HR-PCI).
Pragmatic Trial of Psilocybin Therapy in Palliative Care
This multicenter, triple-blind, phase 2, randomized controlled trial will evaluate the efficacy and safety of psilocybin therapy compared to an active control in treating demoralization in adults near the end of life (≤2 years life expectancy).
Clinical Performance Evaluation of Native Whole Blood Samples of Patients on DOACs With the Perosphere ClotChek™
The Perosphere ClotChek™ system consists of a hand-held, battery-operated blood coagulation instrument and disposable test cuvettes for use at the point-of-care (POC). The instrument performs a whole blood clotting time (WBCT) test using freshly drawn, non-citrated whole blood. The purpose of the present study is to characterize the performance of …
