Experimental Infection of Hookworm-naïve Adults With Dermally-applied Infectious Necator Americanus Hookworm Larvae
An experimental hookworm infection model is being developed to provide early proof-of-concept that a hookworm vaccine targeting the blood-feeding pathway of adult hookworms is feasible and efficacious. The proposed model consists of vaccinating healthy, hookworm-naïve adults with a candidate hookworm vaccine, followed by challenging them with the investigational product, Necator …
Individualized Nutrition to Optimize Preterm Infant Growth and Neurodevelopment
Human milk has several well-established benefits but does not adequately meet the increased nutritional demands of the growing preterm infant, necessitating additional nutrient supplementation in a process known as fortification. In U.S. neonatal intensive care units (NICUs), human milk is primarily supplemented using standardized fortification, in which a multicomponent fortifier …
EMAGINE 2.0 - Electromagnetic Field Ischemic Stroke - Novel Subacute Treatment
This is a multicenter study that will be conducted at approximately 20 centers and up to 30 centers, if the sample size will be increased following interim assessment. The Q Therapeutic System (BQ 3.0) is a wearable medical device that produces and delivers non-invasive, extremely-low-intensity and low-frequency, frequency-tuned electromagnetic fields …
A Phase 1/2 Study of Intravenous Gene Transfer With an AAV9 Vector Expressing Human Beta-galactosidase in Type I and Type II GM1 Gangliosidosis
Background GM1 gangliosidosis is a disorder that destroys nerve cells. It is fatal. There is no treatment. People with GM1 are deficient in a certain enzyme. A gene therapy may help the body make this enzyme. This could improve GM1 symptoms. Objective To test if a gene therapy helps Type …
Carboplatin or Olaparib for BRcA Deficient Prostate Cancer
This is an unblinded, randomized clinical study comparing the efficacy of DNA damaging chemotherapy using carboplatin, to standard of care therapy for patients who have metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer. This trial will use olaparib or carboplatin as initial therapy with crossover to the alternate or second-line drug after first …
Binimetinib for People With Relapsed/Refractory BRAF Wild Type Hairy Cell Leukemia and Variant
Background Most people with hairy cell leukemia have a BRAF gene mutation. They can be treated with BRAF inhibitors, drugs that target this mutation. For people who do not have this mutation, BRAF inhibitors are not a treatment option. We found that in hairy cell leukemia, when BRAF is not …

The study seeks 60 volunteers who have PTSD and are eligible for care in the Department of Defense healthcare system. There will be 10-14 therapy …
JAK1/2 Inhibitor Ruxolitinib for Relapsed/Refractory Immune Bone Marrow Failure
Background Immune bone marrow failure is a condition that occurs when a person s immune system attacks the cells of the bone marrow. This can lead to diseases including different types of anemias and blood cancers. Some of these diseases can be deadly. Better treatments are needed. Objective To test …
Enasidenib in IDH2-Mutated Malignant Sinonasal and Skull Base Tumors
Background Cancers of the nasal cavity or skull base are rare. They often are not diagnosed until they are at an advanced stage, and they often spread to other parts of the body. These cancers may have mutations in a gene called IDH2. Researchers want to find out if a …
Impact of Manual Therapy on Laryngeal Function Following Total Thyroidectomy
In this clinical trial, the investigators are seeking to learn if a course of voice therapy, including neck massage, stretches and pain science education in addition to voice exercise and scar massage will effectively treatment patient complaints of swallowing or voice changes after total thyroidectomy as compared to voice exercise …
