Clinical Trial for Surgery of the Ulnar Nerve (SUN) at the Elbow
This research is studying two surgical procedures in a large group of people to learn about how well these procedures work as a treatment for ulnar neuropathy at the elbow (UNE). Researchers want to see which surgery is more helpful for people with ulnar neuropathy. This research will determine if …
Exome and Genome Analysis to Elucidate Genetic Etiologies and Population Characteristics in the Plain Community
This study is designed to utilize whole exome and whole genome sequencing techniques to identify underlying genetic causes for undiagnosed disorders in the Plain Communities, and to do population genetic studies looking at genetic drift and founder mutations in this unique population.
IV Gallium Study for Patients With Cystic Fibrosis Who Have NTM (ABATE Study)
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of two 5-day infusion cycles of IV gallium in adult patients with CF who are infected with NTM. Funding Source - FDA Office of Orphan Products Development (OOPD)
Impact of Tamsulosin on Post-Operative Urinary Retention Following Pelvic Reconstructive Surgery
The objective of the study is to determine the effectiveness of postoperative Tamsulosin in reducing the duration of acute postoperative urinary retention (POUR) following pelvic reconstructive surgery through a double blind, randomized placebo-controlled trial.
Adoptive Transfer of Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes for Metastatic Uveal Melanoma
This is a Phase 2 study in which the efficacy of a non-myeloablative lymphodepleting preparative regimen followed by infusion of autologous TIL and high-dose aldesleukin in patients with metastatic uveal melanoma will be evaluated. Metastatic uveal melanoma (UM) carries a poor prognosis with estimated survival of 4-6 months. There are …
Electrophysiological Source Imaging Guided Transcranial Focused Ultrasound
Neuromodulation is a fast growing field that offers a wide range of applications for both understanding and treating the brain. Future research for non-invasive neuromodulation will need to elucidate the optimal frequency, duration, and intensity of stimulation for a variety of technologies and diseases. Closed loop stimulation is thus a …
Open Versus Arthroscopic Stabilization of Shoulder Instability With Subcritical Bone Loss: The OASIS Trial
This clinical trial will determine the outcome trajectories of common surgeries (arthroscopic Bankart repair with remplissage of a Hill-Sachs lesion, open Bankart, Latarjet) with post-operative rehabilitation and identification of prognostic factors among patients with acute or recurrent anterior shoulder instability with subcritical bone loss. The results of the study assist …
HCRN Endoscopic Versus Shunt Treatment of Hydrocephalus in Infants
Hydrocephalus is a potentially debilitating neurological condition that primarily affects babies under a year of age and has traditionally been treated by inserting a shunt between the brain and the abdomen. A newer endoscopic procedure offers hope of shunt- free treatment that may reduce complications over a child's life, but …
Natural History and Advanced Genetic Study of Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Complex Deficiencies
Children and adults with pyruvate dehydrogenase complex deficiency (PDCD) are participating in a research study seeking to better understand the genetic causes, symptoms, usefulness of current treatments, and outcomes for these disorders. The research project involves completing a questionnaire about the individual or family's medical history and experiences with PDCD, …
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for Ulcerative Colitis (HBOT-UC)
Chronic intestinal hypoxia and accompanying mucosal inflammation is a hallmark of ulcerative colitis (UC). Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) involves breathing 100% oxygen under increased atmospheric pressure to increase tissue oxygenation. Two small prospective randomized controlled trials have demonstrated that the delivery of HBOT to UC patients hospitalized for acute moderate …
