Arrhythmia Detection After MI
Patients post acute myocardial infarction (AMI) have a high risk of mortality but the use of an implantable defibrillator in the early aftermath of an AMI has not been shown to improve patients' survival. The VEST trial recently demonstrated an improved overall survival in post AMI patients with the use …
A Study to Investigate CYC140, in Subjects With Advanced Solid Tumors and Lymphoma
This is a 2-part, phase 1/2, open-label, multicenter study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, pharmacogenomics, and efficacy of CYC140 administered orally daily. This study consists of Phase 1 and Phase 2 components in subjects with advanced solid tumors and lymphoma who have progressed despite having standard therapy …
Confirmatory Study of Topical HyBryte™ vs. Placebo for the Treatment of CTCL
To evaluate the use of HyBryte, a topical photosensitizing agent, to treat patients with patch/plaque phase cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (mycosis fungoides).
A Study to Evaluate Vimseltinib in Adults With Active Chronic Graft-Versus-Host Disease (cGVHD)
The purpose of this study is to determine if vimseltinib is safe, tolerable and works effectively to treat adults with active moderate to severe cGVHD. Participants will be treated with vimseltinib in 28-day treatment cycles for approximately 2 years.
RP1 in Primary Melanoma to Reduce the Risk of Sentinel Lymph Node Metastasis
This early-phase study will examine Vusolimogene Oderparepvec, a genetically modified oncolytic viral strain of the herpes simplex type 1 (HSV-1) virus, with potential oncolytic, immunostimulating and antineoplastic activities. Upon administration, vusolimogene oderparepvec specifically targets, infects and replicates in tumor cells and does not infect healthy cells. This results in tumor …
The Effects of Successful OSA Treatment on Memory and AD Biomarkers in Older Adults Study
The Effects of Successful OSA TreatmENT on Memory and AD BIomarkers in Older AduLts (ESSENTIAL) study is a 5-year, multicenter randomized open-label trial that will screen 400 cognitively normal older adults recruited from well-established sleep clinics at 4 academic medical centers, with newly diagnosed moderate-severe OSA. An expected 200 OSA …
Women's Heart Attack Research Program: Stress Ancillary Study
The Women's HARP study is a multi-center study focusing on women with clinical presentation of myocardial infarction (MI). Women will complete stress questionnaires following presentation to the medical center with elevated cardiac enzymes and abnormal electrocardiograms (ECGs). 2 months following MI, participants will be screened for the Stress Ancillary Study …
Project VIBE: Virtual Intervention for Binge Eating in Adolescents
The aim of this project is to pilot test a novel mobile app intervention for adolescents with dysregulated eating behaviors and elevated weight status. This intervention will incorporate evidence-informed strategies targeting self-regulation into cognitive-behavioral treatment for maladaptive eating. Adolescents will use the app for 16 weeks and provide feedback on …
Vagal Stimulator to Reduce Nasogastric Tube Use
Abdominal surgery, laparoscopic or open, is frequently performed at UPMC Shadyside hospital. One of the most frequent complications following abdominal surgery is a postoperative ileus. Although postoperative ileus may be the result of obstruction or leakage, in most cases postoperative ileus (POI) is the result of local irritation because of …
Liver Volume Variation Effect on SBRT Planning and Delivery for Upper Abdominal Malignancies
Standard planning constraints for liver SBRT incorporate strict dose-volume limits for normal liver parenchyma to minimize the risk of radiation-induced liver disease. The presence of diurnal and fasting/fed variations in liver volume therefore carry substantial potential for introducing errors into estimates of dose-volume distribution within normal liver tissue, as well …
