NCT01710618
The purpose of the study is to elucidate the different proteins that may appear on the "injured" end of the sciatic nerve and compare it to the other end of the cut nerve, which is "uninjured". By comparing the "normal" versus "traumatized" ends of the cut sciatic nerve, the investigators hope to identify proteins that may be specifically related to pain. For instance, if the non-traumatized end of the nerve has none of Protein X but the traumatized end of the nerve has a lot of Protein X, then Protein X would be a protein that the investigators will want to study further and see if it plays any role in the sensation of pain. Other studies have shown that there are specific pain-related proteins and they may be increased or decreased after traumatic injury. If the investigators are able to identify specific proteins that are related to pain, then that may eventually lead to the development of medications that will block those proteins and decrease the sensation of pain.
NCT05797909
The primary purpose of The PCOS Challenge Study will be to conduct high-quality research where patients are included in the design, and answering the questions that patients identify as important to their lived experience with PCOS. In partnership with clinical investigators, patients will work on the development and management of data collection, the research agenda, and the sharing of research findings. The PCOSC Study will promote the advancement of research that provides reliable, useful, and meaningful information to patients with PCOS and their clinicians. The population for The PCOS Challenge Study will include individuals with a clinical diagnosis of PCOS, individuals self-diagnosed with PCOS, individuals with symptoms of PCOS (e.g., hirsutism, irregular menstrual cycles), and demographic-matched controls without PCOS.
NCT00453154
This partially randomized phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of sunitinib malate and to see how well it works when given together with cisplatin or carboplatin and etoposide in treating patients with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, carboplatin, and etoposide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Sunitinib malate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor. It is not yet known whether cisplatin or carboplatin and etoposide are more effective when given with or without sunitinib malate in treating small cell lung cancer.
