NCT02671292
To determine whether reducing loss of control eating (LOC) with Interpersonal Psychotherapy-Weight Gain (IPT-WG) will be effective for adolescent military-dependents who report such behavior. The investigators will examine whether IPT-WG influences body weight gain trajectories and prevents worsening disordered eating, psychosocial problems, and metabolic functioning among military dependents at heightened risk for adult obesity and disordered eating. This study will provide key efficacy data for a new promising obesity prevention program for youth from military families.
NCT01838655
Background: \- Oculocutaneous albinism, type 1B (OCA1B) is a genetic disease caused by problems in the gene that makes tyrosine. Tyrosine is an amino acid needed to produce pigment in the skin, hair, and eyes. People with OCA1B have pale skin, white hair, and light-colored eyes. Pigment in the back of the eye helps vision, so people with OCA-1B often have visual problems. Researchers want to see if a drug called nitisinone can help improve eye pigmentation and vision in people with OCA1B. Nitisinone is approved for treating a related genetic disease that causes problems with tyrosine, so it may help people with OCA1B. Objectives: \- To see if nitisinone can help improve eye pigmentation and vision in people with OCA1B. Eligibility: \- Individuals at least 18 years of age who have OCA1B. Design: * This study will last about 18 months. It requires eight outpatient visits, each about 3 months apart. Each visit will require 1 to 2 days of testing. * Participants will be screened with a physical exam, eye exam, and medical history. They will have additional vision and neurological tests. They will be tested to see how their brain and retinas respond to light. They will also take hair and blood samples, and answer questions about diet. * Participants will receive the study drug. They will take one pill a day for 1 year. They will keep track of the dose in a study diary. * At the outpatient visits, participants will have the following tests: * Medical history and physical exam * Neurological and eye exams * Retina function tests * Tests of the skin and brain's response to light * Blood and urine tests * Dietary consultation * Visual function questionnaire. * After the end of the study, participants will return to the care of their regular eye doctor.
NCT01578317
Background: \- Adjuvants are substances included in vaccines that stimulate the immune system and increase the body's response to the vaccine. The AS03 adjuvant is used in seasonal flu vaccines in Europe. However, it has not been fully tested in the United States. Researchers want to test the immune responses of people who receive a bird flu vaccine with or without AS03 to better understand how the adjuvant works. This information may help develop better flu vaccines. Objectives: \- To compare the healthy immune system responses to bird flu vaccine with or without the AS03 adjuvant. Eligibility: \- Healthy volunteers between 18 and 45 years of age. Design: * Participants will be screened with a physical exam and medical history. * Participants will be assigned to one of two groups. Each group will have an initial vaccine, followed by a booster vaccine 21 days later. Both vaccinations will use the same type of vaccine. One group will have the vaccine with AS03; the other group will have the vaccine without it. * All participants will have two 36-hour inpatient stays to receive the vaccine. Each stay will involve the vaccination, followed by regular and frequent blood draws. Participants will be monitored for any signs or symptoms that may be caused by the vaccine. * Additional blood samples will be collected 7, 28, 42, and 100 days after the initial vaccination.
NCT02298946
Background: \- T-cells are white blood cells that can find and kill germs and tumors. Cancer can keep T-cells from working. Researchers think a new drug called AMP-224 might help the T-cells in people with cancer. They think the drug might work even better when combined with a certain type of radiation therapy. Objective: \- To study the safety and effectiveness of AMP-224 together with 1 or 3 days of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) directed to the liver. Eligibility: \- People age 18 and older with metastatic colorectal cancer. Their cancer must have spread to the liver and not be responding to treatment. Design: * Participants will be screened with a medical history, physical exam, and blood and urine tests. Their tumors will be measured with computerized tomography (CT) scans or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the chest, stomach, and pelvis. They will have an electrocardiogram (ECG) heart test. * Participants will have a small part of their tumor removed by needle (biopsy). * Participants will have 8 study visits over about 10 weeks. * At 1 visit, they will have another tumor biopsy. * At 1 visit, they will get a chemotherapy drug through a vein (intravenous (IV)). * At 6 visits, they will receive AMP-224 through an IV. * At 1 or 3 visits, they will have SBRT. Computed tomography (CT) scans will map the position of their tumor. Radiation beams of different intensities at different angles will be directed to the tumor. * At all visits, some screening procedures may be repeated. * After treatment ends, participants will have 7 follow-up visits over about 5 months. Blood will be drawn. Some screening procedures may be repeated.
