More specifically, improvement in verbal learning, memory, and attention, as well as cognitive and functional performance will be measured.
NCT06212583
The purpose of this research study is to compare the effects, good and/or bad, of using the standard of care treatment, hormonal therapy + Stereotactic Ablative Radiation (SABR) to the metastatic lesions, compared to standard of care and addition of 6-months of niraparib/abiraterone acetate combination pills and prednisone for participants with recurrent metastatic prostate cancer.
NCT07143968
The purpose of this research study is to test the safety and effectiveness of the study drug, resmetirom, in participants with MASLD and HIV. This is a research study to test a drug that is already on the market with a population that was not included in the original clinical trials. Participants will be people over age 18 with HIV who are on antiretroviral therapy and have been diagnosed with MASLD. Researchers will compare resmetirom to placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if resmetirom decreases the amount of fat in the liver. Participants will: * Complete 3 screening visits to determine eligibility. * Take resmetirom or placebo every day for 24 weeks if eligible. * Have 2 MRI scans to measure the amount of fat on the liver. One will be before treatment starts and one will be at the end of 24 weeks of treatment. * Attend 3 scheduled clinic visits while on treatment for bloodwork and safety assessments. * Participate in 3 phone calls while on treatment and one phone call 4 weeks after treatment is completed to check for safety and any health changes.

XR-B in jail followed by 6 monthly injections post-release at a community treatment program. Arm 2. XR-NTX (n=120). One injection of XR-NTX in jail, followed by 6 monthly injections post-release at a community treatment program.
NCT07497399
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate if the study drug will reduce brain and retinal atrophy by reducing inflammation and subsequently slowing neurodegeneration in people with Multiple Sclerosis. The main outcome for the trial is change in normalized brain parenchymal volume (nBPV), measured by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Researchers will compare outcomes from participants randomized to the study drug, versus participants randomized to placebo, to see if there are signs of slowed neurodegeneration (i.e., reduction in brain and retinal atrophy).
NCT01496014
The purpose of this study is to characterize the bacteria in the wound "bioburden" at the time of definitive wound coverage/closure of severe tibia fractures in both the military and civilian populations.
NCT05382338
This phase III trial tests two hypotheses in patients with low-risk and average-risk medulloblastoma. Medulloblastoma is a type of cancer that occurs in the back of the brain. The term, risk, refers to the chance of the cancer coming back after treatment. Subjects with low-risk medulloblastoma typically have a lower chance of the cancer coming back than subjects with average-risk medulloblastoma. Although treatment for newly diagnosed average-risk and low-risk medulloblastoma is generally effective at treating the cancer, there are still concerns about the side effects of such treatment. Side effects or unintended health conditions that arise due to treatment include learning difficulties, hearing loss or other issues in performing daily activities. Standard therapy for newly diagnosed average-risk or low-risk medulloblastoma includes surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy (including cisplatin). Cisplatin may cause hearing loss as a side effect. In the average-risk medulloblastoma patients, this trial tests whether the addition of sodium thiosulfate (STS) to standard of care chemotherapy and radiation therapy reduces hearing loss. Previous studies with STS have shown that it may help reduce or prevent hearing loss caused by cisplatin. In the low-risk medulloblastoma patients, the study tests whether a less intense therapy (reduced radiation) can provide the same benefits as the more intense therapy. The less intense therapy may cause fewer side effects. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Cisplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. It works by killing, stopping or slowing the growth of cancer cells. The overall goals of this study are to see if giving STS along with standard treatment (radiation therapy and chemotherapy) will reduce hearing loss in medulloblastoma patients and to compare the overall outcome of patients with medulloblastoma treated with STS to patients treated without STS on a previous study in order to make sure that survival and recurrence of tumor is not worsened.
NCT07100990
The purpose of this research is to evaluate if early vs rescue Therapeutic Plasma Exchange (PLEX) treatment algorithm leads to better visual outcomes in severe Optic Neuritis and leads to better neurological disability outcomes in severe Transverse Myelitis.
NCT03896763
Severe pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (PARDS) is a life-threatening and frequent problem experienced by thousands of children each year. Little evidence supports current supportive practices during their critical illness. The overall objective of this study is to identify the best positional and/or ventilation practice that leads to improved patient outcomes in these critically ill children. We hypothesize that children with high moderate-severe PARDS treated with either prone positioning or high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) will demonstrate more days off the ventilator when compared to children treated with supine positioning or conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV).
NCT02176967
This phase III trial studies how well response and biology-based risk factor-guided therapy works in treating younger patients with non-high risk neuroblastoma. Sometimes a tumor may not need treatment until it progresses. In this case, observation may be sufficient. Measuring biomarkers in tumor cells may help plan when effective treatment is necessary and what the best treatment is. Response and biology-based risk factor-guided therapy may be effective in treating patients with non-high risk neuroblastoma and may help to avoid some of the risks and side effects related to standard treatment.
NCT06519487
Immune-mediated inflammatory diseases are a health burden for approximately seven percent of the population of Western nations. Preliminary data suggest variations in ethnic identity and/or geography influence discrimination experiences and inflammatory response trends. This study investigates how geography, ethnicity, and laboratory manipulation of discrimination experiences affect immune cell function and genomic regulation. Flow cytometry and immune cell stimulation will test monocytes collected from peripheral blood for functional effects. Next-generation transcriptomics and epigenomics will assess genomic and epigenetic mechanisms. The hypothesis is that geography, self-identified race, and ethnicity, interacting with laboratory discrimination conditions during the virtual ballgame Cyberball™, significantly affect immune cell function through genomic and epigenetic mechanisms, with perceived discrimination as a moderating factor on the immune outcomes. The transdisciplinary nature of the proposed study aims to provide valuable insights into differential susceptibility to immune-mediated inflammatory diseases across diverse populations. Uncovering these insights will better inform population-relevant interventions for immune-mediated inflammatory diseases.
NCT06465810
The MaesTTRo study aims to enroll a global cohort of patients with transthyretin (ATTR) amyloidosis to longitudinally observe the natural course of the disease and describe real-world treatment patterns and outcomes. In addition, information on the effectiveness of ATTR amyloidosis treatments, including eplontersen, which is a ligand-conjugated antisense oligonucleotide gene silencing treatment targeting activity against both the mutant and wild-type TTR protein, will be collected.
NCT02842086
The primary objective of this study is to assess the rates of HIV-1 infection in Men (MSM) and transgender women (TGW) who have sex with men and who are administered daily emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (F/TAF) or emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (F/TDF) with a minimum follow-up of 48 weeks and at least 50% of participants have 96 weeks of follow-up after randomization.
NCT05557591
This study is researching an investigational drug, called BNT116, in combination with cemiplimab. BNT116 and cemiplimab will each be called a "study drug", and together be called "study drugs". The study is focused on patients who have advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The aims of this study are to see how safe and tolerable BNT116 is in combination with cemiplimab and to see how effective BNT116 in combination with cemiplimab is compared to cemiplimab by itself at treating cancer. The study is looking at several other research questions, including: * What side effects may happen from receiving the study drugs * How much study drug is in the blood at different times * Whether the body makes antibodies against the study drug(s) (which could make the drug less effective or could lead to side effects)
NCT07159828
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn more about the side effects and best dose of AXN-2510 in adults with advanced solid tumors. The main questions it aims to answer are: * What are the side effects of AXN-2510? * Which is the best tolerated dose of AXN-2510? * How long does AXN-2510 stay in your body? Participants will receive AXN-2510 every 3 weeks. Participants will visit the clinic for checkups and tests several days during the first and third doses, and once every 3 weeks for other doses.
NCT07419425
The overarching goal of this program of research is to reduce smoking-related health disparities by increasing smoking cessation among Black adults. The goal of this research proposal is to determine whether more intensive, culturally specific, evidence-based interventions are more effective at promoting long-term cessation and other key patient-centered outcomes compared to the usual evidence-based standard of care: services provided by a state-run quitline. This study compares the relative effectiveness of three different treatments (Standard, Intensive, and Intensive Incentivized) on long-term smoking cessation (biochemically confirmed abstinence from combusted tobacco at 26-weeks post-target quit day) among Black adults who smoke and want to quit.
NCT05735483

This study will last about 68 weeks and may include up to 16 planned visits. If participating in the optional extension as well, the study will last approximately 1 additional year for a total of up to 116 weeks and may include up to 29 scheduled visits.
NCT04023396
A phase 2b study to evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety study of ABX464 50mg as maintenance therapy in patients with moderate to severe Ulcerative Colitis.
NCT01920932
This pilot phase II trial studies how well giving brentuximab vedotin, combination chemotherapy, and radiation therapy works in treating younger patients with stage IIB, IIIB or IV Hodgkin lymphoma. Monoclonal antibodies, such as brentuximab vedotin, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer killing substances to them. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as etoposide, prednisone, doxorubicin hydrochloride, cyclophosphamide, and dacarbazine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill cancer cells. Giving brentuximab vedotin with combination chemotherapy may kill more cancer cells and reduce the need for radiation therapy.
NCT07235059
The purpose of this first-in-human (FIH) study is to evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic (PK) of OJR520.
