Evaluating Novel Therapies in ctDNA Positive GI Cancers
This study is a non-randomized, open-label, multi-cohort, multi-site, pilot feasibility therapeutic trial. The study will enroll 20 patients across 4 cohorts (CRC, gastric, PDAC, and HCC/intra-hepatic-/extra-hepatic-, gall bladder adenocarcinomas) diagnosed with histologically confirmed GI cancers. These patients will have already completed all Standard of Care (SOC) treatments (including neoadjuvant, surgery, …
Abemaciclib Neuropharmacokinetics of Diffuse Midline Glioma Using Intratumoral Microdialysis
Background Diffuse midline gliomas are the most aggressive brain tumors of childhood and young adults. Most people with these tumors survive less than 2 years. Researchers want to see if an anticancer drug (abemaciclib) can help. Objective To see if researchers can measure how much abemaciclib is in a person's …
Neurobiology of Suicide
Background There are no good treatments for people considering suicide. Researchers want to study suicide with questions, blood tests, brain imaging, and sleep studies. They hope to better understand suicide, so they can help suicidal people. Objective To understand what happens in the brain when someone has thought about or …
Human Immune Response to Ixodes Scapularis Tick Bites
Background Each year, the number of cases of tick-borne diseases increases. The deer tick (Ixodes scapularis) is the vector of at least 7 pathogens that cause human diseases, including Lyme disease. Researchers want to learn more to help them develop vaccines against ticks in the future. Objective To learn how …
Pulmonary Embolism - Thrombus Removal With Catheter-Directed Therapy
PE-TRACT is an open-label, assessor-blinded, randomized trial, aiming to compare catheter-directed therapy (CDT) and anticoagulation (CDT group) with anticoagulation alone (No-CDT) in 500 patients with submassive PE, proximal pulmonary artery thrombus and right ventricular dilation.
Treat-to-Target of Endoscopic Remission in Patients With IBD in Symptomatic Remission
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness and safety of a strategy of switching to an alternative targeted immunomodulator (TIM) therapy to treat to a target of endoscopic remission, versus continuing index TIM in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) (Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis [UC]) in …
Cognitive Behavioral Theory-assisted Virtual Reality for Chronic CANcer Pain (VR-CAN)
While chronic cancer pain affecting as many as 75% of patients is typically addressed using pharmacologic interventions, experts and patients alike support maximizing any relevant non-pharmacologic interventions as well, such as cognitive behavioral therapy. Virtual reality, a novel technology that can temporarily immerse users in a calm, pleasant environment, has …
Intravesical Lactobacillus Crispatus: Clinical Safety and Microbiome Evaluation
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether Lactobacillus crispatus strains isolated from the lower urinary tracts of adult women can be used as an antibiotic-sparing treatment for urinary symptoms and urinary tract infection (UTI) among adults with neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (NLUTD). The main question\[s\] it …
Taldefgrobep Alfa in Adults With Overweight and Obesity

Randomized Stepped Wedge Study of Emapalumab in APECED Enteritis
Background Autoimmune polyendocrinopathy-candidiasis-ectodermal dystrophy (APECED), also known as Autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type-1 (APS-1), is a disease that causes the immune system to attack parts of a person s body. In some people, APECED attacks the small intestine; this causes an illness called enteritis. Objective To test a drug (emapalumab) in …
