NCT04050280
This study involves evaluating a combination of chemotherapy drugs known as "CLAG-GO" \[cladribine, cytarabine, granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) and gemtuzumab ozogamicin (GO)\] in the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has not responded well to standard therapy or has returned after an initial remission (relapsed). The trial will be conducted at the University of Maryland Greenebaum Comprehensive Cancer Center (UMGCCC). Potential participants will go through a screening period to see if they are eligible to join the study. If eligible, participants will be hospitalized for 4-5 weeks to receive study treatment with CLAG-GO, called induction chemotherapy. If tests show that the cancer is in remission after induction chemotherapy, participants may undergo further chemotherapy (known as consolidation) or may proceed with bone marrow/stem cell transplantation. Patients who receive consolidation chemotherapy and remain in remission may have up to 8 cycles of outpatient maintenance therapy. A cycle lasts about 28 days. All participants will be monitored carefully for both side effects and to see if the study treatment is working. Lab tests and exams will be conducted throughout the entire study. In addition, special studies will be done at various time points to try to understand better how the drugs work and which patients are likely to respond best.

NCT06953700
Binaural hearing involves combining auditory information across the ears. With binaural hearing, listeners benefit from perceiving sounds from different spatial locations. This is critical in solving the "cocktail party problem" (i.e., understanding speech in the presence of competing background sounds and noise). As humans get older, hearing loss increases, binaural abilities decrease, and the cocktail party problem becomes increasingly difficult. This research studies the mechanisms underlying the impact of age and hearing loss on speech-perception in noise and cocktail-party listening situations. More specifically, the role of hearing asymmetries between the ears is investigated. The specific aims are to generate an audiological and binaural-hearing-focused dataset for a large cohort of participants that vary in hearing asymmetry, age, and hearing loss and to use machine learning to uncover complex associations and generate novel hypotheses relating audiometric variables and basic binaural-hearing abilities to the cocktail-party problem. Participants in this research will complete perceptual measures of hearing acuity and spatial hearing. Participants will also report on speech understanding under noisy and challenging listening conditions. This research may lead to improvements in audiological care and hearing interventions.

NCT04927442
Background: People with COVID-19 have varying degrees of illness. It can range from no or mild symptoms to critical illness and death. Some people with COVID-19 have long-term effects regardless of the severity of their disease initially. Researchers want to learn more to see if they can better predict where a person may fall on the illness spectrum. Objective: To follow and record symptoms of COVID-19 to see how it progresses in people and why some people stay sick longer than others. Eligibility: People ages 18-65 who received a COVID-19 positive test result in the 72 hours before their enrollment in the study. Design: Participants will complete a 30-minute baseline survey. They will answer questions about themselves and their health. Participants will get a digital wristband and temperature sensor in the mail. They will get instructions on how to set up and wear the devices. They will download a mobile application on their phone. The app will collect data from the devices. Participants will wear the wristband and sensor every day for the first month. Then they will wear the devices for a total of 40 days over the next 5 months. On the days they wear the devices, they will answer a 2-question health survey via the app. Participants will answer a 20-minute online survey about their health every 30 days. If participants are hospitalized, a family member or close friend will be asked to complete a brief 7-minute online survey about their hospital stay and treatment. Participants will be sent alerts and reminders throughout the study. Participation will last for 6 months.
NCT05443997
Progress on child growth outcomes such as stunting requires both direct and indirect actions across multiple sectors. Recognizing the importance of multisector approaches in reducing child undernutrition, Alive \& Thrive (A\&T) India aims to improve the quality of health and nutrition services, as well as their convergence at the household level with other available nutrition-sensitive services, in order to improve MIYCN behaviors, and ultimately decrease malnutrition in Gujarat. In line with government priorities, A\&T designed a suite of system strengthening interventions including capacity building, supportive supervision, strategic use of data, improved food supplementation and engagement with local governance to improve the quality and co-coverage of nutrition-relevant services in three districts in Gujarat. This proposed evaluation aims to assess the feasibility of integrating multi-sectoral interventions using a cluster-randomized design with cross-sectional baseline and endline surveys.
NCT05080218
The COVID-19 VaccinE Response in Rheumatology patients (COVER) study is a multicenter randomized controlled trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a mRNA COVID-19 vaccine supplemental dose (booster) in patients with autoimmune conditions and to evaluate the impact of different immunomodulatory therapies on vaccine response. The investigators propose to recruit up to 1000- patients with autoimmune conditions who have a completed 2-dose regime of mRNA COVID-19 vaccine (\>28 days prior) and who are planning to receive an additional dose of mRNA COVID-19 vaccine (i.e., booster). Participants in this study will be men and women 18 years and older with confirmed rheumatic disease, including psoriatic arthritis (PsA), axial spondyloarthritis (SpA) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who express a decision to receive the mRNA vaccination booster within 30 days post enrollment. A primary objective of this study is to test the hypothesis that holding certain medications for a brief period of time around the time of COVID-19 vaccination might improve the response to the vaccine while not unduly having safety concerns with respect to the effects of their disease. During the study, participants using the immunomodulatory therapies described outlined in protocol will be randomized to temporarily hold (for 2 weeks) versus continue after they receive the COVID-19 vaccine supplemental dose. Patients who temporarily stop one of their medications for their autoimmune inflammatory disease may be at increased risk of flares of their autoimmune condition. If these occur, they are expected to occur within 2 - 4 weeks of treatment interruption. Detailed protocol outlines the hold schedules for the therapies to be randomized in this study.
NCT04741646
We will conduct a 12-month, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial to assess the effects of therapy with ferric citrate (FC) on changes in intact FGF23 levels (iFGF23, primary endpoint) in 160 pediatric patients (80 in each of the two arms) aged 6-18 years of either sex with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stages 3-4 and age-appropriate normal serum phosphate levels. Participants will be randomized to one of the two groups: 1) FC or 2) FC placebo. Participants will be recruited from 20 core clinical sites.
NCT06046820

NCT03928041
The purpose of this trial is to collect clinical outcomes including radiographic and CT outcomes in patients who undergo interbody spinal fusion using the EVOS Lumbar Interbody System.
NCT06954805
The purpose of this study is to find out if there is a benefit to giving rituximab with etoposide, prednisone, vincristine, cyclophosphamide and doxorubicin (R-EPOCH) in participants who have high-risk B-cell PTLD in their 2nd phase of treatment (consolidation) while those with low-risk disease will be spared of chemotherapy and treated with rituximab consolidation alone. This study is also being done to find out about the usefulness of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), a novel blood test which, has been shown to help guide treatment decisions in other types of lymphoma. The goal is to answer the question if ctDNA is a viable and informative tool in treating PTLD with the hope that in the future it may be used to individualize study treatment for participants with PTLD in a way that limits study treatment toxicity without losing the effectiveness of the treatment plan.
NCT00447980
The purpose of this study is to look at the safety and effectiveness of CNTF implants on vision in persons with retinitis pigmentosa, Usher type II \& III, and Choroideremia. This research is being done because there are no effective therapies for people with these retinal degenerations. They are genetic disorders that affect one's ability to see at night, and later cause tunnel vision and loss of central vision. Retinal degenerations affect the retina, a light sensitive layer of cells in the back of the eye. Slowly over time, these cells die and cause permanent loss of vision. The implant is a small capsule that contains human retinal pigment epithelium cells. These cells have been given the ability to make CNTF and release it through the capsule membrane into the surrounding fluid. In this study, two different CNTF dose levels will be used: a high dose and a low dose in one eye, as well as a sham (or placebo) surgery in the other eye.
NCT04998305
The primary objective of the study is to demonstrate the safety and potential efficacy of TJ-68 for improving muscle cramps in participants with ALS based on a two-site, randomized, placebo-controlled double-blind multi-period crossover (N-of-1) study design.
NCT04503395
The aim of this randomized study is to compare the safety and performance of EndoVascular Aneurysm Repair with ESAR using Endurant + Heli-FX™ EndoAnchor™ system and FEVAR using customizable grafts from Cook (Zenith Fenestrated Graft) and Terumo (Fenestrated Anaconda Graft) for the treatment of aortic aneurysms with short aortic neck (4 to 15mm).
NCT03932032
This two-site study is a test of Attention Bias Modification Treatment (ABMT) among 260 youths ages 10 to 14 years with social anxiety disorder. One-half of participants will receive 8 sessions of computer administered ABMT and the other half of participants will receive 8 sessions of computer administered Neutral Control Task (NCT). The investigators hypothesize that a biomarker of attention to social threat measured using electroencephalography (EEG) and ratings of social anxiety severity will be lower in participants who receive ABMT compared to participants who receive NCT.
NCT05853861
The proposed study (PETAL: Promoting Early intervention Timing and Attention to Language) aims to determine the timing of intervention among infants with Increased Likelihood for Autism (ILA; at risk for autism by virtue of having an older sibling with autism) on communication and language outcomes at 24 months. Results of this study will determine when (9 vs 12 vs 15 months), and based on which measures (brain, language, or their combination) to augment parental support with a specialized parent-mediated coaching intervention for optimal outcomes on communication and language at 24 months. Children will be recruited at 6-8 months of age and will begin with entry assessments. All children will first begin with the MONITOR condition (using Ages \& Stages Questionnaire (ASQ-3) and activity cards. Then when the child is 9 months, they will be randomized to continue with MONITOR condition or COACH condition (incorporates JASPER intervention and Babble Bootcamp) after second set of assessments. There are a total of 6 assessment timepoints (6-8 months of age, 9 months of age, 12 months of age, 15 months of age, 18 months of age, and 24 months of age). At time points of 9months and 12 months, the child will be randomized to COACH or MONITOR conditions. Once the child is randomized to COACH condition, they will continue with that condition until they terminate the study at 24 months. At the 15 months timepoint, there will no longer be a randomization. Children that were in the MONITOR condition will change to the COACH condition until they terminate the study.
