Focused Ultrasound for the Complex Patient
The goal of this clinical trial is to to inhibit the anterior insula (AI) with low intensity focused ultrasound (LIFU) to determine the causal role for the AI in pain processing, anxiety, and opiate cue-induced craving. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: the safety and tolerability of LIFU …
Trial of Allogeneic Reduced-Intensity, HLA-Haploidentical Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Bone Marrow Transplantation Followed by Graft-versus-Host-Disease (GVHD) Prophylaxis With Cyclophosphamide, Bortezomib and Maraviroc for Hematologic Malignancies ...
Background People living with HIV(PLWH) are at a higher risk for cancers that may be curable with a bone marrow transplant. HIV infection itself is no longer a reason to not get a transplant, for patients who otherwise have a standard reason to need transplant. Objective This study is being …
Targeted Pediatric High-Grade Glioma Therapy
The goal of this study is to perform genetic sequencing on brain tumors from children, adolescents, and young adult patients who have been newly diagnosed with a high-grade glioma. This molecular profiling will decide if patients are eligible to participate in a subsequent treatment-based clinical trial based on the genetic …
Predictors of Health Service Utilizations Among Key Population in Washington DC
The primary objective of the proposed study is to investigate how PrEP use might result in an increase in the utilization of health and social services offered at a local community-based organization. Our primary hypothesis is that the investigators will observe higher utilization of sexual health (STI screenings), psychosocial health …
Induced Blood-Stage Malaria in Healthy Malaria-Naive Adults to Assess the Safety and Infectivity of Plasmodium Vivax Challenge Agent and Evaluate Transmission in Mosquito Feeding Assays
Background Malaria is a disease caused by parasites transmitted to people by mosquitoes. Around the world, there were 241 million cases and 627,000 deaths from malaria in 2020. Researchers are working to develop vaccines and treatments for this disease. Objective To learn how malaria develops in people; how the body's …
JUST BREATHE, Breathing Life Into Innovative Therapies for ARDS- Cohort A: Vilobelimab
This is a Phase 2 multicenter, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study that will evaluate the safety and efficacy of host-directed therapeutics in hospitalized adults diagnosed with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) utilizing a platform trial design. Cohort A: Participants will be randomized to receive either a placebo or vilobelimab. This record …
A Single-arm, Dose-escalation Trial of Long-acting Recombinant Human IL-7 (NT-I7, Efineptakin Alfa) for Idiopathic CD4 Lymphopenia
Background Idiopathic CD4 lymphopenia (ICL) is a syndrome characterized by low levels of certain immune cells called CD4 T cells. The low CD4 T cells renders people with ICL prone to many types of severe infections, autoimmune diseases, and cancers. Although these infections and diseases can be treated whenever occur, …
Development of Patient-Reported Outcome Measures Assessing Tumor Visibility and Appearance Concerns in Neurofibromatosis Type 1: A Qualitative Study
Background Neurofibromatosis 1 (NF1) is a disease that causes tumors to grow along the nerves. These include plexiform neurofibromas (pNF) and cutaneous neurofibromas (cNF). Both pNF and cNF can be visible to other people. These tumors can affect a person s appearance and quality of life. Researchers want to be …
Continuum of Care in Hospitalized Patients With Opioid/Stimulant Use Disorder and Infectious Complications From Drug Use
This is a two-group randomized controlled trial conducted at five hospitals across the U.S. designed to test the effectiveness of an Integrated infectious diseases/Substance Use Disorder outpatient clinic (IC) compared to treatment as usual aimed at reducing infection related readmissions and improving health outcomes in people hospitalized with an infection …
Metagenomics Next-generation Sequencing Approach to Detect Microbial DNA/RNA Overtime in Individuals Undergoing Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant
Infections are a major cause of morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). The purpose of this study is to evaluate if metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) can detect microbial signatures in people undergoing HSCT, and if microbial identification can be correlated with clinical features of infection …
