NCT07281027
The goal of this clinical trial is to find out whether two existing medications-anakinra and tocilizumab-can effectively treat a rare and life-threatening brain condition called NORSE (New-Onset Refractory Status Epilepticus). NORSE causes continuous seizures in previously healthy children and adults and does not respond to standard treatments. It often leads to long-term disability or death. Doctors currently use anakinra and tocilizumab as second-line treatments when first-line therapies fail, but there is no clear evidence showing which drug works better or when it should be given. This study aims to answer those questions. The study will enroll patients across 33 hospitals in the United States, Canada, Europe, and Asia. It includes two groups: 1. Randomized Cohort Patients will be randomly assigned to receive either anakinra or tocilizumab within the first 7 days of their illness. Only patients whose doctors were already planning to use one of these medications as part of standard care will be eligible for randomization. Researchers will monitor their recovery and compare outcomes between the two treatments. 2. Observational Cohort Patients who cannot be randomized-usually because they were diagnosed too late-will still be followed to study how the timing of treatment affects recovery. Participants will: * Receive one of the two medications (depending on their group assignment). * Take part in follow-up assessments over the course of one year, including medical evaluations and surveys. Some participants may be followed annually beyond one year. * Optionally participate in a 60-minute interview to share their or their caregiver's experience with NORSE.

NCT03422198
This randomized phase III trial studies short course vaginal cuff brachytherapy to see how well it works compared with standard of care vaginal cuff brachytherapy in treating participants with stage I-II endometrial cancer. Short course vaginal cuff brachytherapy, also known as internal radiation therapy, uses (over a shorter period) radioactive material placed directly into or near a tumor in the upper portion of the vagina to kill tumor cells. After completion of cohort 1 (108 participants), the protocol was expended to add a second cohort of 80 additional participants, and re-opened study recruitment.

NCT05085366
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of mRNA 1647 vaccine in CMV-seronegative female participants and to evaluate the safety and reactogenicity of mRNA-1647 vaccine in all participants. The purpose of the Phase 3 extension substudy is to extend the observation period of the main study and to assess the longer-term immunogenicity, efficacy, and safety of the mRNA-1647 vaccine against primary CMV infection in healthy females who were CMV-seronegative at Baseline of the mRNA-1647-P301 main study (including participants who remain CMV-seronegative upon entry into the extension substudy and participants who seroconverted during the main study). The extension substudy will also evaluate the immune persistence and safety of mRNA-1647 in a subset of female participants who were CMV-seropositive at Baseline of the main study. No interventional vaccine will be administered in the extension substudy.
NCT07220876
A Prospective, Multicenter, Single-Arm, Open-Label Clinical Trial
NCT05348356
This phase 2 clinical trial will study the effectiveness of nirogacestat in ovarian granulosa cell tumors (OvGCTs). Nirogacestat is a gamma secretase inhibitor (GSI) which is hypothesized to decrease the growth and activity of ovarian granulosa tumors.
NCT04019327
The purpose of this study is to determine what the safest dose of talazoparib plus temozolomide for participants with metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer. The purpose of Phase II is to test the efficacy (effectiveness) of talazoparib and temozolomide at the maximum tolerated dose, which was determined to be 1mg talazoparib and 75mg/m² temozolomide in the Phase Ib portion of this study.

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of B07, administered daily by subcutaneous (SC) injection, in up to 120 patients with newly diagnosed metastatic colorectal cancer. This study will evaluate different doses of B07 on weight, body composition and BMI in patients with sub-optimal BMIs (≤ 29 kg/m\^2). Treatment will start at the second cycle of first-line cancer chemotherapy and continue for 12-weeks with the goal of maintaining body weight and muscle mass in patients undergoing chemotherapy relative to control.
NCT07281105
Neuropsychiatric systemic lupus erythematosus with cognitive impairment (NPSLE-CI) is a serious, disabling, and potentially life-threatening manifestation of SLE, affecting up to 80% of patients with cognitive impairments ("brain fog"), leading to substantial disability, approximately 2 times higher unemployment risk, reduced health-related quality of life (HRQoL), and mortality 2-14 times higher than the general population (standardized mortality ratio, SMR). No approved therapies exist for NPSLE cognitive dysfunction, representing a high-priority unmet need for this FDA-recognized serious condition with major functional and psychosocial burden. The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of EG-501 in a precise patient subset with NPSLE. Participants will complete a full 14-week clinical trial, receiving either EG-501 or a placebo.
NCT05611671
This is a Phase 2b randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of three active dose regimens of MORF-057 in adult patients with moderately to severely active Ulcerative Colitis (UC).
NCT04909203
This study is a 16-week intent-to-treat randomized controlled trial (RCT) with 120 suicidal juvenile justice (JJ)-involved transition-age (TA) youth (age 15-21 years) and a primary caregiver (dyads). Dyads will be randomly assigned to iKinnect2.0 (n=60 dyads) or Life360 (control app) plus an electronic suicide resources brochure (n=60 dyads). This design will test iKinnect2.0's new features for suicide prevention against TA youth awareness of and access to high-quality suicide prevention resources, while simultaneously testing features relating to conduct problems and parent management against parents knowing the TA youth's whereabouts in real-time and controlling for dyad member engagement in technology (Life360). Participants will be assessed at baseline, 4, 8 and 16 weeks. Primary youth-reported outcomes relating to suicide risk include: Suicidal behaviors (ideation, planning, attempts), non-suicidal self-injurious behaviors, self-efficacy in coping with distress, and use of imminent distress coping strategies (behavioral skills, use of crisis stabilization plan). Youth will also report on their criminal behavior. Primary caregiver-reported outcome variables relating to youth suicide include: Self-efficacy in applying family-based suicide-prevention strategies and reported use of those strategies; caregivers will also report on their own functioning (efficacy/confidence in parenting skills, life stress), TA youth functioning (internalizing and externalizing symptoms), parental management behaviors (expectation clarity, parental monitoring, discipline effectiveness/consistency, use of rewards), and parent-youth relationship quality (communication, conflict, support). App satisfaction and use of technology outcomes (i.e., degree of app usage, features used) will be examined and reported descriptively.
