A Phase 2 Study of ACR-368 in Endometrial Adenocarcinoma
This is an open label Phase 2 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ACR-368 as monotherapy or with ultra-low dose gemcitabine (ULDG) sensitization in participants with endometrial cancer.
Biomarker Development for Muscular Dystrophies
Current methods of measuring the response to new treatments for muscular dystrophies involve the examination of small pieces of muscle tissue called biopsies. The investigators are interested in finding less invasive methods that reduce the need for muscle biopsies. The purpose of this research is to learn about the possibility …
Fear of Recurrence and Stopping Immunotherapy
The study includes participants experiencing distress with regard to stopping immunotherapy and will utilize cognitive-behavioral therapy to reduce fear of recurrence, depression, and anxiety and improve quality of life.
Enhancing Prefrontal Oscillations and Working Memory in Early-course Schizophrenia
This study will investigate the effects of intermittent Theta Burst Stimulation (iTBS) on natural oscillatory frequency of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) and working memory in early-course schizophrenia (EC-SCZ). Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) will be used to evoke oscillatory activity, and EEG will record the responses of EC-SCZ participants. A …
QST Study: Predicting Treatment Response in Chronic Pancreatitis Using Quantitative Sensory Testing
Quantitative Sensory Testing (QST) is a novel investigative technique used in other pain conditions to evaluate patterns of chronic pain, and in this study will be used to elucidate pain patterns in patients with Chronic Pancreatitis (CP). QST uses a specific series of standardized stimulations to map the pain system. …
Adoptive Transfer of Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes for Biliary Tract Cancers
This is a Phase 2 study to evaluate the efficacy, using objective response rate, of a non-myeloablative lymphodepleting preparative regimen followed by infusion of autologous Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes (TIL) and high-dose aldesleukin in patients with locally advanced, recurrent, or metastatic biliary tract cancer. These are low-incidence cancers carry a poor …
OpalGenix- Personalized Postoperative Pain Management Following Lumbar Spinal Fusion and Decompression Surgery in Adults
The proposed research is an important extension of an ongoing perioperative personalized analgesia and intravenous opioid pharmacogenetic research. This research focuses on two of the most commonly used oral opioid analgesics, oxycodone, and methadone, in adults following lumbar spinal fusion and decompression surgery. Genetic signature and combinatorial pharmacogenetic approaches perform …
Pulmonary Embolism - Thrombus Removal With Catheter-Directed Therapy
PE-TRACT is an open-label, assessor-blinded, randomized trial, aiming to compare catheter-directed therapy (CDT) and anticoagulation (CDT group) with anticoagulation alone (No-CDT) in 500 patients with submassive PE, proximal pulmonary artery thrombus and right ventricular dilation.
ETHAN - ET for Male BC
This research study is looking to see how well male breast cancer responds to preoperative treatment with endocrine therapy and which endocrine therapy regimen is the most effective treatment for male breast cancer. The drugs used in this study are: Tamoxifen Anastrozole Degarelix Abemaciclib
Balancing Effortful and Errorless Learning in Naming Treatment for Aphasia
Aphasia is a language disorder caused by stroke and other acquired brain injuries that affects over two million people in the United States and which interferes with life participation and quality of life. Anomia (i.e., word- finding difficulty) is a primary frustration for people with aphasia. Picture-based naming treatments for …
