NCT06994962
This is the third stage of a three-stage, NIH-funded study to develop and test a multi-modal intervention concerning blood/breath alcohol concentration for young adults who drink heavily. The multimodal intervention will be made up of brief telehealth counseling and psychoeducation and use of three existing mobile technologies. The brief counseling/psychoeducation and mobile technologies provide personalized feedback regarding blood or breath alcohol content. The long-term goal of use of these mobile technologies will be to facilitate moderate drinking. However, the main goals of the proposed research are to learn more about feasibility of our procedures, perceived value of the technologies and ease of use from the research participants' points of view. In this third stage of the study, the investigators will conduct a randomized controlled trial building on the formative research conducted in Stages 1 and 2.
NCT06936566
This clinical trial will study ruxolitinib-based treatment of acute graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD) that developed following allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant. Acute GVHD occurs when donor cells attack the healthy tissue of the body. The most common symptoms are skin rash, jaundice, nausea, vomiting, and/or diarrhea. The standard treatment for GVHD is high dose steroids such as prednisone or methylprednisolone, which suppresses the donor cells, but sometimes there can be either no response or the response does not last. In these cases, the GVHD can become dangerous or even life threatening. High dose steroid treatment can also cause serious complications. Researchers have developed a system, called the Minnesota risk system, to help predict how well the GVHD will respond to steroids based on the symptoms present at the time of diagnosis. The Minnesota risk system classifies patients with newly diagnosed acute GVHD into two groups with highly different responses to standard steroid treatment and long-term outcomes. This protocol maximizes efficiency because all patients with grade II-IV GVHD are eligible for screening and treatment is assigned according to patient risk. Patients with lower risk GVHD, Minnesota standard risk, have high response rates to steroid treatment. In this trial the researchers will test whether ruxolitinib alone is as effective (non-inferior) as steroid-free therapy and safe. Patients will be randomized to two different doses of ruxolitinib to identify the dose which maximizes efficacy while minimizing toxicities such as hematologic and infectious toxicities. Patients with higher risk GVHD, Minnesota high risk, have unacceptable outcomes with systemic corticosteroid treatment alone and the researchers will test whether adding ruxolitinib, a proven effective second line GVHD treatment, can improve outcomes when added to systemic corticosteroids as first line treatment.
NCT05421624
Regular, habitual exercise is a critical component of the long-term management of Parkinson disease (PD). However, PD-specific motor (e.g. slow and diminished movements, variable step timing) and non-motor (e.g. depression, apathy) problems collectively hinder physical activity. Rhythmic auditory stimulation (RAS) is a rehabilitation technique that employs coupling of auditory cues with movement. Walking with RAS has been shown to benefit walking rhythmicity, quality, and speed. These walking benefits make RAS advantageous in promoting moderate intensity walking activity -- an important health-objective in the management of PD. However, the therapeutic potential of RAS in self-directed walking programs has not been examined. In this pilot, we will utilize a breakthrough digital therapeutic that delivers music-adaptive RAS to alleviate PD-specific problems by regulating stepping patterns. Using music as a substrate for cue delivery, this digital therapeutic leverages gait benefits from RAS along with enjoyment of music listening, thus making it a viable and engaging modality that will yield habits of regular walking. Habits are automatically recurring psychological dispositions that emerge from repeated behaviors. The investigators posit that music cues provide recurring contextual cues that automatically evoke habitual response of exercise, thus has the potential to prompt regular physical activity. This study will enroll 61individuals with mild-to-moderate PD (Run-in: 17; Main Trial: 44). The experimental intervention, "Amped-PD", is a 6-week, user-managed community-based walking program that utilizes music-adaptive RAS that progressively increases walking intensities. This study will examine if Amped-PD (Experimental Intervention) is more effective than a standard-of-care walking program (Active-Control Intervention) in improving physical activity based on moderate intensity walking, and in improving motor deficits related to quality of walking in individuals with mild-to-moderate PD. This study will also examine whether the resultant habits formed from each intervention matter in relation to training-related changes in physical activity.

This Early Feasibility Study (EFS) will assess the safety and effectiveness of the device at the index procedure and at 30-day follow-up. The study will evaluate the delivery and deployment of the device, patency of branches and branch vessels, and exclusion of the aortic pathology. The data will help determine if modifications need to be made to the device, the procedural steps, operator technique, or the indications for use.
NCT04244175
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if CVL-865, when taken regularly with other anti-seizure medicines, works to prevent seizures in adults with drug-resistant focal onset seizures. It will also learn about the safety of CVL-865. The main question it aims to answer is whether CVL-865, when taken regularly with other anti-seizure medicines, lowers the number of seizures in those with a diagnosis of epilepsy with drug-resistant focal onset seizures. This study has an 8-week Screening/Baseline Period, a 13-week Treatment Period (including a 2-week Titration Phase, an 8-week Maintenance Phase, and a 3-week Taper Phase), and a 4-week Safety Follow-Up Period. Participants will take CVL-865 or a placebo twice a day during the 10-13 week Treatment Period, visit the clinic every few weeks for checkups, tests, and surveys, and fill out an e-Diary.

NCT05737602
The Relaxation Response Resiliency Program (3RP) has shown efficacy in improving coping and resilience across diverse populations; however, little is known about how it helps individuals manage the challenges of living with a chronic illness. This study proposes to pilot test an adapted version of the 3RP among patients living with VHL.
NCT01764529
Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) are clusters of abnormal blood vessels in the brain and spine. CCMs can bleed and cause strokes, seizures, and headaches. CCMs are often caused by an inherited gene mutation (alteration) in one of three CCM genes (CCM1, CCM2, or CCM3). There is a wide range of disease severity even among family members with this disease, though the natural history has not been clearly described for this particular population. This study will continue to enroll and follow participants with familial CCM to identify factors that influence CCM disease severity and progression, focusing on barriers to clinical trial preparedness. Our long-term goal is to identify measurable outcomes and robust biomarkers that will help select high-risk patients and help monitor drug response in future clinical trials. The specific goals of this study are to: * Identify factors that influence lesion progression to symptomatic hemorrhage and other outcomes, including quality of life; * Investigate the role of the gut microbiome and lesion burden in CCM disease, and * Identify blood biomarkers predictive of CCM disease severity and progression for clinical trials.

NCT04886154
The purpose of this study was to assess the safety, effectiveness, and immune response of the meningococcal combined ABCWY vaccine (GSK4023393A) intended to protect against invasive meningococcal disease (IMD) caused by all 5 meningococcal serogroups. The first time-in-human (FTIH), Phase I part of this study was conducted in healthy adults in a dose-escalating fashion with 2 formulations of the investigational MenABCWY-2Gen vaccine and served as a safety lead-in to the Phase II study. The Phase II part of the study was conducted in 2 parts: The 'formulation and schedule-finding' part followed in healthy adolescents and young adults and was designed to select the vaccine formulation and the schedule to be tested in Phase III. The 'blood sourcing' part was conducted in healthy adults in order to collect sufficient serum samples for the development of assays to be used in the MenABCWY-2Gen vaccine clinical development program.
