NCT06246916
This study is researching an experimental drug called fianlimab (also known as REGN3767), combined with another medication called cemiplimab (also known as REGN2810), called "study drugs". The study is focused on patients with a type of skin cancer known as melanoma. The aim of the study is to see how safe and effective the combination of fianlimab and cemiplimab is in treating melanoma, in comparison with the combination of two medications, relatlimab and nivolumab, commercialized under the brand name Opdualag™ and approved for the treatment of melanoma in adults and children. The study is looking at several other research questions, including: * What side effects may happen from taking the study drugs. * How much study drug is in the blood at different times. * Whether the body makes antibodies against the study drugs (which could make the drug less effective or could lead to side effects)
NCT04946851
Background: Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is a major public health problem. In the U.S., 16 to 18 million adults have an AUD. Researchers want to test an assessment tool called the ANA. It uses self-report and behavioral measures to assess 3 neuroscience domains of addiction. They hope to better understand, manage, prevent, and treat AUD. Objective: To learn how people s brains function related to their drinking. Eligibility: People ages 18 years and older who have enrolled in NIAAA natural history study 14-AA-0181. Design: Participants will complete surveys and tasks on a computer. The surveys and tasks assess a range of aspects of thinking and making decisions. The surveys and tasks also assess behaviors and feelings about alcohol and other rewards, and negative emotions. Participants will spend 90 minutes on the computer. Then they will take a break. In total, they will spend 4 blocks of time on the computer. Each block will last 90 minutes. They will take a break in between each block of time. They can take more breaks if needed. Outpatient participants and healthy volunteers will complete this study in 1 visit. It will last about 6 hours. A second visit may be scheduled if needed. Outpatient participants will take a breath alcohol test. If their test is positive, their visit may be rescheduled or they may be withdrawn from the study. Inpatient participants will complete this study over several days. Data collected from participants in this study may be combined and analyzed with their data from NIAAA study 14-AA-0181 and/or NIAAA imaging study 14-AA-0080.
NCT05361811
Background: RASopathies are a group of genetic diseases that affect a child s development. They cause physical, cognitive, and behavioral symptoms. Caring for a child with a RASopathy can be stressful. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a therapy that helps people become more aware and accepting of difficult thoughts and feelings. ACT has been found to be helpful for parents with high parenting stress. Objective: To find out if Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) can help caregivers of children with a RASopathy better cope with parenting stress. Eligibility: People aged 18 years or older who care for a child (younger than 18 years) with a RASopathy. The child must live with the caregiver at least 50% of the time. Design: The study is fully remote. Participants need a mobile device that can play audio and video and connect to the internet. They can borrow an iPod if needed. Participants will download a free app called MetricWire. They will use this app to watch videos and answer questions. The first 8 participants will be in a pilot study. They will receive the ACT intervention starting the first week after they begin the study. After the pilot study, we will start a new phase called the randomized trial. In this phase, participants will have a 50-50 chance of being in the group that will start the intervention right away or the group that will start the intervention after about 2 months. Participants will fill out surveys on 5 random days each week. These surveys have 7 questions and take about 2 minutes. They will also fill out 3 longer questionnaires: once before ACT begins, once just after the 8-week study period, and once about 3 months later. Questions will cover topics including: Parenting stress Life satisfaction Self-compassion Uncomfortable feelings and thoughts Mindfulness Participants will take part in an 8-week ACT intervention. They will have one 75-minute session with an ACT coach in the first week. Participants will watch 9- to 17-minute videos each week. The videos talk about how to practice ACT techniques to cope with parenting stress. Participants will have 20- to 30-minute coaching sessions in weeks 3 and 6. The coach will help them practice exercises and work through any problems.
NCT05369611
Background: COVID-19 affected African Americans more than Whites. African Americans, especially women, have had higher rates of COVID-19 infections compared to Whites. They are also more likely to go to the hospital or die of this disease. Many researchers who looked into these issues lacked background data on the people they studied. SELF is a 10-year study of fibroids in African American women aged 23-35. Researchers already have a lot of data on these women. Asking how COVID-19 affected them can add context other studies lack. Objective: To describe the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on young African American women and their families. Eligibility: Participants must be enrolled in SELF (Study of Environment, Lifestyle, and Fibroids). Design: Researchers will invite all women enrolled in SELF to participate in this natural history study. Participants will complete one questionnaire. They will answer the questions online. They may also choose to get a paper copy sent by mail. The survey will take no more than 15-20 minutes. All questions will relate to COVID-19. Participants will be asked if they had COVID-19. They will be asked if family, friends, or members of their community did. They will answer questions about their vaccine status and access to health care services. Participants will also answer questions about how the pandemic affected their lives. They will be asked about their job and if finding childcare was a challenge. They will be asked about money problems and how they coped. They will be asked about sleep problems and emotional distress. Participants will get a $30 gift card after they finish the survey.
NCT03165721
Background: Wild-type gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is a cancer in the esophagus, stomach, or intestines. It does not respond well to standard chemotherapy or radiation therapy. Most people with GIST are treated with imatinib. But it may not work in many children with GIST. Researchers think the drug SGI-110 may help treat people with GIST, pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma (PHEO/PGL), or kidney cancer related to hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell carcinoma (HLRCC). Objective: To learn if SGI-110 causes GIST tumors to shrink or slows their growth. Also to test how it acts in the body. Eligibility: People ages 12 and older who have GIST, PHEO/PGL, or HLRCC that has not responded to other treatments Design: Participants will be screened with: * Physical exam * Urine tests * Computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), or fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-positron emission tomography (PET) scan: A machine takes pictures of the body. * Blood tests Participants will be injected with SGI-110 under the skin each day for 5 days. This cycle will repeat every 28 days. The cycles repeat until their side effects get too bad or their cancer gets worse. Participants will have tests throughout study: * Physical exam and blood and urine tests before each cycle * Blood tests on days 1, 7, 14, and 28 of the first cycle. * Scans before cycle 1 and then every other cycle. * Questionnaires about their pain and quality of life * Tumor biopsy for those 18 and older: A needle removes a small piece of tumor. After they stop treatment, participants will have a final visit. This includes an evaluation of their health, pain, and quality of life. ...
NCT03304678
Background: Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is a rare, progressive disease. It usually affects women in the prime of their lives. It typically results in lung destruction. Studies have shown that a drug called sirolimus stabilizes lung function in people with LAM. But researchers do not know what drug dose and blood serum levels are needed to reach this stability. Researchers want to learn more about the right dose of sirolimus for people with LAM. Objective: To determine if blood and urine markers after 1 dose and again after 9 months can be used to evaluate the correct dose of sirolimus for people with LAM. Eligibility: Women ages 18-90 with LAM whose doctors have decided they should start taking sirolimus to treat it. Design: At visit 1, participants will take their first dose of sirolimus by mouth at the clinic. They will have blood and urine collected. Participants will take 1 tablet of the study drug each day. Visit 2 will be 3 months after visit 1. Participants will have blood and urine collected. Visit 3 will be 9 months after visit 1. Participants will have blood and urine collected. Participant samples will be stored in a secure place. No personal data will be connected to them.

The Longitudinal Early-onset Alzheimer's Disease Study (LEADS) is a non-randomized, natural history, non-treatment study designed to look at disease progression in individuals with early onset cognitive impairment. Clinical, cognitive, imaging, biomarker, and genetic characteristics will be assessed across three cohorts: (1) early onset Alzheimer's Disease (EOAD) participants, (2) early onset non-Alzheimer's Disease (EOnonAD) participants, and (3) cognitively normal (CN) control participants.
NCT06616597
To determine if dexamethasone or dexamethasone plus metronidazole restore sensitivity to abiraterone for the treatment of metastatic prostate cancer.
NCT01196390
This randomized phase III trial studies how well radiation therapy, paclitaxel, and carboplatin with or without trastuzumab work in treating patients with esophageal cancer. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel and carboplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Monoclonal antibodies, such as trastuzumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. It is not yet known whether giving radiation therapy and combination chemotherapy together with or without trastuzumab is more effective in treating esophageal cancer.
NCT07361510
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of Pumitamig versus Pembrolizumab in participants with previously untreated advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer and PD-L1 ≥ 50%.
NCT05436535
This is a multi-center, longitudinal study which will characterize the gene expression profiles and transcriptomic endotypes that underlie mild and moderate-severe Atopic dermatitis (AD) and will determine changes in these expression patterns and endotypes in response to standard-of-care treatment. Participants will complete up to ten scheduled study visits with assessment of topical steroid response and dupilumab response (if uncontrolled with topical steroids). Skin samples will be collected at all study visits to determine the gene expression profiles and transcriptomic endotypes that underlie mild vs. moderate-severe AD disease. The investigators will also evaluate the lipidomic, metabolomic, proteomic, and microbiome profiles of AD skin endotypes associated with mild and moderate-severe AD disease. Non-AD participants will serve as a control population. The primary objective of this study is to determine if the type 2-high non-lesional skin (skin tape) endotype is associated with current mild versus moderate-severe AD disease.

NCT06870487
The purpose of this study is to learn about the effects of a new study medicine called PF-08046032, when taken alone and when taken with another medicine called sasanlimab, for the treatment of advanced cancers. The effects are studied in adult participants with certain types of lymphomas or solid tumors that are advanced or metastatic (spread to other parts of the body). The study has three parts: * Part A will test PF-08046032 alone at increasing dose levels in participants with certain lymphomas (cancer that begins in cells of the immune system) and in participants with certain solid tumors whose disease has worsened on or after standard treatments. * Part B will test PF-08046032 (at selected doses) and sasanlimab in participants with certain solid tumors, including those whose disease has worsened on or after standard treatments as well as participants before receiving standard treatments. * Part C will further test the combination of PF-08046032 and sasanlimab in participants with specific types of solid tumors based on the results from Part A and Part B of the study. All participants will receive the study drug PF-08046032. Only participants in Part B and Part C of the study will also receive sasanlimab. PF-08046032 will be given as an intravenous (IV) infusion, which means it will be injected directly into a vein. Sasanlimab will be given as a subcutaneous injection, which means it will be injected under the skin.
