Non-invasive Central Venous Pressure Estimation in Pediatric Patients
Central Venous Pressure (CVP) is a standard parameter for hemodynamic monitoring and is currently measured through the insertion of a catheter. The pediatric population is especially vulnerable to risks associated to this invasive procedure, including infection, thrombosis, and pneumothorax. The proposed pilot study will evaluate safety and preliminary efficacy of …
PET Imaging of Phosphodiesterase-4 (PDE4) in Volunteers With Alzheimer Disease (AD) or Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI)
Background About 5 million adults in the United States have age-related brain disorders. These include Alzheimer disease (AD), mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and other dementias. The number of people with these disorders will likely increase as the population ages and life span increases. Inflammation is thought to play a role …
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 …
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 …
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 …
Development and Evaluation of Computerized Chemosensory-Based Orbitofrontal Networks Training for Treatment of Pain (CBOT-P)
The overarching goal of this study phase, Phase II component is to perform a randomized clinical trial of the refined Computerized Chemosensory-Based Orbitofrontal Networks Training for Treatment of Pain [CBOT-Pain (or CBOT-P)] from Phase I, compared to sham Computerized Chemosensory-Based Orbitofrontal Networks Training (CBOT) in Chronic Low Back Pain (CLBP) …
Renal Retention in High Grade Upper Tract Urothelial Cancer
This trial will evaluate the use of combination pembrolizumab and enfortumab vedotin for patients with high grade non-metastatic (cN0/NxMx, no measurable regional lymph nodes, no metastases) upper tract urothelial cancer (UTUC), preferring to forego standard of care radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) surgery. Currently these patients would not be suitable candidates for …
Stereotactic Body Proton Therapy for Treatment of Primary Renal Cell Carcinoma
This study examines the impact of proton based stereotactic radiation therapy (SBRT) on kidney function as well as other oncologic outcomes including local control, locoregional and systemic failure, progression free and overall survival.
Enzalutamide Implants (Enolen) in Patients With Prostate Cancer
The study is to assess whether the Enolen is safe and delivers anti-androgen medication locally in patients that are planning for radical prostatectomy.
The Exhale Study: Treating Maternal Depression in an Urban Pediatric Asthma Clinic
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effectiveness and implementation of delivering Enhanced Brief Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT-B), an evidence-based maternal depression treatment, to mothers of children aged 4-11 years in an urban pediatric asthma clinic. Researchers will compare Enhanced IPT-B and supplemented usual care (brief care coordination). …
