Robot-Assisted Prostate Biopsy With a Novel Ultrasound Probe
Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most diagnosed type of cancer and the second leading cause of cancer related deaths among US men, and its incidence has increased steadily in the last decade. Efforts to address the rise in PCa diagnosis without overdetection and overtreatment include targeted biopsy techniques for clinically …
Dabrafenib and Trametinib for BRAF V600 Mutant Low-Grade Gliomas
This phase II trial studies how well de-escalating the drugs dabrafenib and trametinib works in treating patients with low-grade gliomas that have a BRAF V600 gene mutation. Dabrafenib and trametinib are in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. They work by blocking the action of abnormal proteins that signals …
ANG-First Trial (Angiotensin II as First-Line Vasopressor Therapy in Cardiac Surgery)
The purpose of this research is to evaluate the use of Angiotensin II in patients with low blood pressure post-surgery. Your information will be collected for 28 days post the procedure and initiation of the study drug to assess for safety events and complications.
Outcomes of High-risk Non-muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer Treated With Blue Light Resection
Comparing white-light cystoscopy (WLC) and blue-light cystoscopy (BLC) in TURBT for high risk (HR) non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) patients is crucial to determine the most effective method for reducing residual disease burden and improving recurrence-free survival. Enhanced visualization with BLC may lead to more accurate resections, potentially decreasing recurrence …
Night Owl Metabolism
The proposed study uses a novel and rigorous randomized cross-over study design in youth (17-23y) with late and non-late chronotype (n=35 per group) to assess the glycemic effect of "aligning" an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) or first-meal of day to a subject's chronotype. Both groups will undergo 2 OGTTs …
Sleep TO Prevent Post-surgical Pain
This research study is being done to compare different methods of addressing sleep problems before total knee replacement surgery. These methods include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and light exposure.
Testing the Impact of Smartphone-based Messaging to Support Young Adult Smoking Cessation
Clinical practice guidelines for smoking cessation emphasize cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help patients develop coping strategies for urges. Mindfulness or Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) offer a different approach, which teaches smokers psychological flexibility through accepting negative experiences. While there is evidence for the efficacy of both CBT and …
A Study to Evaluate the Effectiveness of Long-acting (LA) Cabotegravir (CAB) + Rilpivirine (RPV) LA When Given to Participants With Detectable HIV-1
This study will assess how effective, safe, and long-lasting a long-acting antiretroviral therapy (ART) using CAB LA + RPV LA is for people with HIV who still have detectable virus levels despite being on oral ART. The study will also consider feedback from patients on their experience with this treatment.
Induction of Labor in Morbidly Obese Patients
The goal of this randomized control trial is to compare different doses of Misoprostol (25 mcg vs 50 mcg) in induction of labor (IOL) in morbidly obese patients with BMI >40. It is known that morbid obesity is a risk factor for failed IOL and ultimately cesarean delivery (CD.) If …
Dietary Intervention to Mitigate Post-Acute COVID-19 Syndrome
The primary objective of this study is to conduct a 16-week randomized controlled trial aimed at investigating the effectiveness of the Whole-Diet Approach when following a healthy US-style diet rich in anti-inflammatory properties. The study will focus on evaluating its impact on reducing symptoms related to Post-Acute Sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 …
