NCT05235165
This phase III trial compares the effect of open thoracic surgery (thoracotomy) to thoracoscopic surgery (video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery or VATS) in treating patients with osteosarcoma that has spread to the lung (pulmonary metastases). Open thoracic surgery is a type of surgery done through a single larger incision (like a large cut) that goes between the ribs, opens up the chest, and removes the cancer. Thoracoscopy is a type of chest surgery where the doctor makes several small incisions and uses a small camera to help with removing the cancer. This trial is being done evaluate the two different surgery methods for patients with osteosarcoma that has spread to the lung to find out which is better.
NCT01712490
This open-label, randomized, 2-arm, multicenter, phase 3 study has the primary objective of comparing the modified progression-free survival (mPFS) obtained with brentuximab vedotin (ADCETRIS®) plus AVD (doxorubicin \[Adriamycin\], vinblastine, and dacarbazine; abbreviated A+AVD) versus that obtained with ABVD (doxorubicin \[Adriamycin\],bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine) for the frontline treatment of advanced classical Hodgkin lymphoma(HL)
NCT03126916
This phase III trial studies iobenguane I-131 or lorlatinib and standard therapy in treating younger patients with newly-diagnosed high-risk neuroblastoma or ganglioneuroblastoma. Radioactive drugs, such as iobenguane I-131, may carry radiation directly to tumor cells and not harm normal cells. Lorlatinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving iobenguane I-131 or lorlatinib and standard therapy may work better compared to lorlatinib and standard therapy alone in treating younger patients with neuroblastoma or ganglioneuroblastoma.
NCT00006518
BACKGROUND: * A number of important scientific advances can be made through the study of blood, bone marrow, tumor, or other tissue samples from patients with HIV infection, infection with Kaposi s sarcoma associated herpesvirus (KSHV), infection with other oncogenic viruses, or cancer. * This protocol provides a mechanism to affect a variety of such studies. OBJECTIVES: -Acquisition of serum, circulating cells, bone marrow, and tumor or normal tissue samples from participants with HIV infection, KSHV infection, or with cancer. ELIGIBILITY: -Eligibility criteria include age 18 years or older and at least one of the following: Exposure risk to HIV, KSHV, or HPV; HIV seropositive; KSHV seropositive; EBV seropositive; HTLV-1 seropositive; malignancy, Castleman s disease, or skin lesions with appearance of Kaposi s sarcoma; or cervical or anal intraepithelial lesion. DESIGN: * Up to 999 subjects will be enrolled in this study. * Blood samples may be collected at the initial visit, and at follow-up visits. * Other fluids/excretions may be collected (such as urine, saliva, semen, and stool). * Tumor samples may be obtained by fine needle aspirate, by removal of pleural or peritoneal fluid, by skin punch biopsy, or by excisional biopsy, providing the tumor is accessible with minimal risk to the participants. * Specific risks will be described in a separate consent to be obtained at the time of the biopsy. * Samples will be studied in the HIV and AIDS Malignancy Branch, CCR, NCI; laboratories in NCI-Frederick; or those of collaborating investigators.
NCT06718413
Shoulder pain is extremely common after stroke and occurs in 30-70% of patients. The pain may begin as early as one week after stroke, although peak onset and severity occurs around four months, and persists into the chronic stage. Chronic post stroke shoulder pain (PSSP) interferes with motor recovery, decreases quality of life, and contributes to depression. PSSP is thought to be caused mainly by damage to the myofascial tissues around the shoulder joint. Interestingly, an MRI study in patients with PSSP showed that the degree of structural damage to the muscles did not correlate with the degree of pain. Thus, the pathophysiology of myofascial dysfunction and pain in PSSP has not been elucidated leading to missed opportunities for early diagnosis and variable success with pain management. The accumulation of hyaluronic acid (HA) in muscle and its fascia can cause myofascial dysfunction. HA is a glycosaminoglycan (GAG) consisting of long-chain polymers of disaccharide units of glucuronic acid and N-acetylglucosamine and is a chief constituent of the extracellular matrix of muscle. In physiologic quantities, HA functions as a lubricant and a viscoelastic shock absorber, enabling force transmission during contraction and stretch. Reduced joint mobility and spasticity result in focal accumulation and alteration of HA in muscle. This can lead to the development of stiff areas and taut bands, dysfunctional gliding of deep fascia and muscle layers, reduced range of motion (ROM), and pain. However, the association of muscle HA accumulation with PSSP has not been established. The investigators have quantified the concentration of HA in muscle using T1rho (T1ρ) MRI and found that T1ρ relaxation time is increased in post stroke shoulder pain and stiffness. Furthermore, dynamic US imaging using shear strain mapping can quantify dysfunctional gliding of muscle that may generate pain during ROM. Myofascial dysfunction can result in non-painful reduction in ROM (latent PSSP), which may become painful due to episodic overuse injury producing greater shear dysfunction (active PSSP). Hence, shear strain mapping may differentiate between latent versus active PSSP. Thus, quantitative Motor Recovery (MR) and US imaging may serve as useful biomarkers to elucidate the pathophysiology of myofascial dysfunction.
NCT04514653
This interventional study is being conducted with an investigational gene therapy treatment called ABBV-RGX-314 (also known as RGX-314) and is being developed as a potential one-time gene therapy treatment for neovascular (wet) age-related macular degeneration (wet AMD or nAMD). The typical treatment for nAMD is frequent injections of anti-VEGF therapy. Researchers are testing ABBV-RGX-314 to see if it has similar effects as the current approved standard of care, such as Lucentis® or Eylea® injections. The duration of this study will be up to 52 weeks or for ranibizumab control participants who cross over to ABBV-RGX-314 after week 52, up to 80 weeks post-randomization. The primary outcome measure for this investigational study is to evaluate the mean change in best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) for ABBV-RGX-314 compared with ranibizumab monthly at the Week 40 visit.
NCT04789044
The overall objective of this study is to determine the safety of PEG fusion when used with primary repair or reconstruction in patients with an acute upper extremity peripheral nerve injury. PEG is safe and effective for extending the half-life of circulating pharmaceutical products, when used in conjunction with a topical hemostatic agent in surgical wounds, and when used as a colon cleanser for endoscopic surgical procedures. However, PEG fusion has not been rigorously tested as a safe reagent to promote nerve regeneration in humans. Therefore, the goal of this Phase 2a clinical trial is to establish safety data and to examine the effect of PEG fusion on clinical outcomes including recovery of sensory and motor function. Results will be externally validated using data collected in the DoD funded prospective NERVE study and will provide preliminary evidence to power a larger phase II efficacy trial.

Visit the clinic once every 1-3 months for checkups and tests
NCT07436611
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the use of rapamycin cream can be used as a treatment together with pulsed dyed laser in treating port wine stain birthmarks. The main question it aims to answer is: Will rapamycin cream and laser treatment show a greater improvement in appearance of port wine birthmarks, compared to treatment with placebo cream and laser? Researchers will compare two concentrations of rapamycin cream (0.6% or 1.0%) with placebo treatment to see if appearance is improved following 12 weeks of treatment. Participants will receive laser treatment of their port wine birthmark and then apply the rapamycin or placebo cream daily for 12 weeks. Patients will visit the clinic every 4 weeks for checkups and tests.
