NCT02176967
This phase III trial studies how well response and biology-based risk factor-guided therapy works in treating younger patients with non-high risk neuroblastoma. Sometimes a tumor may not need treatment until it progresses. In this case, observation may be sufficient. Measuring biomarkers in tumor cells may help plan when effective treatment is necessary and what the best treatment is. Response and biology-based risk factor-guided therapy may be effective in treating patients with non-high risk neuroblastoma and may help to avoid some of the risks and side effects related to standard treatment.
NCT03195777
The goal of this study is to develop strategies that will improve outcomes for patients with deep vein thrombosis (DVT), using in vivo FDG-PET inflammation imaging to better predict the development of the post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS). New approaches are needed to improve the outcomes of patients with DVT, a disease that affects up to 600,000 patients per year in the US alone. DVT acutely places patients at risk of death from pulmonary embolism and causes 50,000 deaths annually in the US. Moreover, up to 30-50% of patients will develop PTS, an illness characterized by inflammation-driven fibrotic vein wall injury, and persistent thrombus obstruction. PTS occurs despite anticoagulant therapy, and produces chronic disability from leg pain, heaviness, edema, skin pigmentation, and ulcers; some patients may even require amputation. PTS impairs quality of life to the same extent as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or diabetes. Therefore new diagnostic insights into PTS are urgently needed. There are several major challenges to improve outcomes in PTS: A) Limited in vivo knowledge regarding inflammation and the development of PTS; B) L Lack of predictive approaches to identify patients at high risk for PTS that will preferentially benefit from novel therapies. Recently, our laboratories have harnessed FDG-PET molecular imaging to illuminate DVT inflammation in vivo, and to provide a new strategy to diagnose recurrent DVT, a vexing clinical problem (Hara et al. Circulation 2014). We now propose to further develop FDG-PET to improve outcomes in DVT and PTS. The objective of this application is to develop FDG-PET as an inflammation imaging approach to assess DVT inflammation and predict risk of developing PTS in human subjects; Hypothesis 1A: Inflammatory activity in DVT (quantified acutely, using FDG-PET imaging within 0-7 days after DVT) will predict PTS incidence (primary) and severity (secondary) within a 24 month follow-up period. Hypothesis 1B: Inflammatory activity in DVTs (quantified sub-acutely, using FDG-PET imaging within 21-28 days after DVT), will predict PTS incidence and severity. Eighty patients with DVT will be imaged using FDG-PET/CT acutely (0-7 days of DVT diagnosis), and sub-acutely (21-28 days after diagnosis). Subjects will be evaluated repeatedly for up to 2 years to detect clinical evidence of PTS (Villalta score), ultrasound findings for structural venous injury, and soluble biomarkers of systemic inflammation. Subsequently, we will evaluate the relationship between FDG DVT activity and the development of PTS.

NCT05975073
The main aims of this study are to evaluate the safety and tolerability, and to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or the recommended combination dose of AMG 193 in combination with IDE397 in adult participants with metastatic or locally advanced MTAP-null solid tumors, and to evaluate the preliminary anti-tumor activity of AMG 193 in combination with IDE397 in adult participants with metastatic or locally advanced MTAP-null Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC).
NCT06812494
HVTN 206/HPTN 114 is a randomized, double blind, controlled, phase 2 clinical trial to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and neutralization of VRC07-523LS, PGT121.414.LS, and PGDM1400LS broadly neutralizing monoclonal antibodies given intravenously in adult participants without HIV. The hypothesis of the study is that the combination of VRC07-523LS and PGT121.414.LS and PGDM1400LS antibodies when administered via the intravenous (IV) route will be safe and tolerable in adult participants without HIV. The study aims to enroll 200 participants across multiple sites with an estimated total duration of participation of eighteen (18) months.
NCT07029165
The goal of this preliminary study is to learn if healthy older African American (AA) adults have a larger change in their kidney blood flow during exercise compared to White (W) adults. The main questions that this study aims to answer are: * Do healthy older AA adults have a larger decrease in kidney blood flow during exercise compared to W adults? * Do healthy older AA adults have a larger decrease in kidney blood flow during other types of stress compared to W adults? During one visit in the research lab, participants will: * Perform cycling exercise while lying down * Undergo a cold hand test * Perform a mental math test Completing this preliminary study will help researchers to understand more about why many AA adults have heart and kidney problems, so future research can study ways to reduce the number of AA adults who have these health issues.
NCT02549495
This study evaluates the effectiveness of community health workers when added to routine care for patients with diabetes and high blood pressure in rural clinics in Chiapas, Mexico. It does so by recording information on adherence to therapy, blood pressure and hemoglobin A1c while a non-governmental organization working in Mexico trains and introduces a community health worker program.
NCT03095352
This is a phase II multicenter study including breast cancer patients with chest wall disease that is hormone resistant (estrogen receptor (ER) positive/progesterone receptor (PR) positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) negative breast cancer with progressive disease on 2 prior lines of hormonal therapy) or triple negative (ER negative/PR negative/HER2 negative, TNBC). A companion translational study is operating concurrently with the study described above. In this study, biomarker research to be performed on tumor biopsies and peripheral blood samples will be performed to explore the immunologic and genomic mechanism of action underlying treatment with pembrolizumab and carboplatin versus carboplatin alone. This protocol includes tissue and blood correlative exploratory endpoints including changes in tumor PD-L1 (programmed death ligand 1) gene expression, tumor and peripheral blood immune composition and cytokine expression, plasma tumor DNA, circulating tumor cells, and tumor myelocytomatosis (MYC) oncogene expression using tumor biopsy and peripheral blood testing before and after treatment; correlations with these markers and disease control rate will be assessed.
NCT03673124
The study evaluates the response to treatment with Ribociclib and Letrozole in patients with low grade serous cancer of the ovary, fallopian tube or peritoneum.
NCT02864992
This study looked at how effective the study drug (tepotinib) was at stopping the growth and spread of lung cancer. This study also measures a number of other things including safety of the study drug and the side effects, how body processes the study drug, or how the study drug affects your quality of life. The study also has an optional pharmacogenetic research part. Pharmacogenetic research is an important way to try to understand the role of genetics in human disease and how genes impact the effectiveness of drugs, because differences in genes can change the way a person responds to a particular drug.
