Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for Ulcerative Colitis
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 …
Autologous Dendritic Cell Vaccine in Kidney Cancer
The purpose of this study is to estimate the probability of immune response for the combination treatment of dendritic cell vaccine with oral cabozantinib and characterize the safety profile of interventional therapy.
Deep Brain Stimulation Effects in Patients with Opioid Use Disorder
This is a pilot study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the nucleus accumbens (NAc) as adjunctive treatment for treatment-refractory opioid use disorder. This study will include 3 individuals with opioid use disorder and relapsing opioid use despite active participation in a drug addiction …
Local Bisphosphonate Effect on Recurrence Rate in Extremity Giant Cell Tumor of Bone
The purpose of the clinical study is to investigate whether the local delivery of bisphosphonate as a surgical adjuvant can decrease the chance of a giant cell tumor of bone coming back to the same location. The hypothesis is that the local administration of bisphosphonate will decrease the rate of …
Paclitaxel Coated Balloon for the Treatment of Chronic bEnigN sTricture- Esophagus
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the ProTractX3™ DCB for the treatment of benign esophageal strictures.
Circadian Rhythms and Homeostatic Sleep Drive and Their Effect on Reward and Cognitive Control Systems in Adolescents
Adolescence is a time of heightened reward sensitivity and greater impulsivity. On top of this, many teenagers experience chronic sleep deprivation and misalignment of their circadian rhythms due to biological shifts in their sleep/wake patterns paired with early school start times, which may increase the risk for substance use (SU). …
Nicotinamide Riboside in Ulcerative Colitis
This is a randomized, double-blind pilot study of Nicotinamide Riboside (NR) in Pediatric-onset Ulcerative Colitis (UC).
Evaluation of Myoelectric Implantable Recording Array (MIRA) in Participants With Transradial Amputation
The purpose of this research study is to see how well a new type of myoelectric prosthesis works. A myoelectric prosthesis is a robotic limb for amputees that is controlled by sensing the activity of muscles in the body above the amputation level. This study involves a medical procedure to …
Promising ROd-cone DYstrophy Gene therapY
This is a two-step, multicenter, Phase I/II study including an open-label dose-escalation phase (Step 1) and a three-arm controlled double-masked randomized extension phase (Step 2), in subjects with advanced RCD due to a mutation in the RHO, PDE6A, or PDE6B gene.
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 …
