NCT03220035
This phase II Pediatric MATCH trial studies how well vemurafenib works in treating patients with solid tumors, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, or histiocytic disorders with BRAF V600 mutations that have spread to other places in the body (advanced) and have come back (recurrent) or do not respond to treatment (refractory). Vemurafenib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
NCT05337943
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT-I) is a common treatment for insomnia that does not use medications. While CBT-I is effective for insomnia, it does not tend to improve the waking symptom of fatigue. Another treatment, Bright Light Therapy, is used for treating seasonal depression and sleep disorders, and may improve fatigue and physical activity in individuals with PAH. The purpose of this study to assess the effects of Bright Light Therapy compared to CBT-I to treat insomnia and fatigue in patients with PAH.

The aim of this multicenter retrospective cohort study is to determine the safety of omission of axillary lymph node dissection in patients with residual micrometastases after neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
NCT05827718
Problem. Randomized clinical trials (RCTs) are the best way to determine if interventions are safe and effective. Usually only a small number of eligible patients enroll. This is because trials require people to consent to be enrolled and randomized. Black and Hispanic people are more likely to develop heart disease. They are also more likely to have risk factors for heart disease that are not controlled. Yet they are very under-represented in heart disease trials. This raises concerns about if trial results can be applied to the general population. Trial sponsors are required to enroll patients that reflect the racial and ethnic diversity of real-world people. Black and Hispanic people continue to enroll in trials at a lower rate. The goal of this study is to conduct a series of small randomized trials to test recruitment strategies to increase how many Black and Hispanic people enroll in heart disease clinical trials without diminishing trust. The investigators will test different recruitment strategies for participant enrollment in a few different areas. They will study the method of outreach, the way messages are framed, defaults, and enrollment incentives. They will run smaller recruitment strategy trials within larger parent trials (e.g. Penn Medicine Biobank cohort study). They will run a small recruitment strategy trial to test each approach and then include what they learned in the next small trial.
NCT04024020
The longstanding view has been that insomnia, and other forms of sleep disturbance, emerge as a consequence of dementia and are the result of progressive neuronal damage. However, there is growing evidence that the direction of causation may go both ways, with sleep disturbance potentially increasing vulnerability to dementia. Longitudinal studies have found that sleep disturbance often precedes and increases risk for dementia by several years.The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between chronic insomnia and dementia biomarkers and orexin levels found in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Fifteen adults age 30-50 with chronic insomnia and age- and gender-matched good sleepers will undergo overnight polysomnography and CSF sampling in the morning.
NCT03993509
Given the overall lack of treatment adherence/efficacy, side effects of drugs, and the substantial burden of anxiety disorders on the individual and on the national healthcare system, there is a critical need for mechanistic research into the CNS mechanisms that underlie these disorders. Accordingly, the objective of this grant is to use noninvasive neuromodulation to causally identify the key neural mechanisms that mediate the cognitive symptoms of anxiety. This project is relevant to public health because it has the potential to lead to novel repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation treatments for pathological anxiety.
NCT05578976
B-cell Lymphoma is an aggressive and rare cancer of a type of immune cells (a white blood cell responsible for fighting infections). The purpose of this study is to assess the change in disease activity of epcoritamab when combined with intravenous and oral rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin hydrochloride, vincristine, and prednisone (R-CHOP) or R-CHOP in adult participants globally with diffuse large b-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Change in disease activity will be assessed. Epcoritamab is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of DLBCL. Study doctors put the participants in groups called treatment arms. Participants will receive epcoritamab combined with R-CHOP, followed by epcoritamab or R-CHOP followed by rituximab will be explored. Approximately 900 adult participants with with newly diagnosed DLBCL will be enrolled in the study in approximately 315 sites in globally. In the Arm 1, participants will receive subcutaneous epcoritamab combined with intravenous and oral R-CHOP followed by subcutaneous epcoritamab in 21-day cycles. In the Arm 2, participants will receive intravenous and oral R-CHOP followed by intravenous rituximab in 21-day cycles. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at an approved institution (hospital or clinic). The effect of the treatment will be frequently checked by medical assessments, blood tests, questionnaires and side effects.
NCT02152137
This phase II trial studies how well inolitazone dihydrochloride (efatutazone dihydrochloride) and paclitaxel work in treating patients with anaplastic thyroid cancer that has spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment (advanced). Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as efatutazone dihydrochloride and paclitaxel, 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.
NCT05925101
Although highly effective, treatments like FCT include extinction, which can have adverse side effects. The extinction burst, an increase in the frequency or intensity of destructive behavior at the start of treatment, is the most common side effect of extinction, and can increase the risk of harm to the patient and others. The goal of the current study is to evaluate the prevalence of extinction bursts when various parameters of reinforcement (i.e., rate, magnitude, quality) are manipulated.
NCT05775406
This Phase 1 study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD), and clinical activity of KT-253 in adult patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) high grade myeloid malignancies, acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL), R/R lymphoma, myelofibrosis, and R/R solid tumors. The study will identify the pharmacologically optimal dose(s) (MTD) of KT-253 as the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D), based on all safety, PK, PD, and efficacy data.
NCT03523572

NCT06304610
ELEVATE is a six-year project, conducted by an international research alliance led by Ghent University, aiming to develop a new test and approach for cervical cancer screening in hard-to-reach populations. In this final stage of the project, a hospital-based validation study is deployed in Belgium and Ecuador to clinically validate the new ELEVATE screening test based on self-samples and endocervical samples. The simultaneous detection of HPV DNA and the proteomic markers allows for the detection of those cervical HPV infections associated with progression towards cervical cancer. At each study site, 100 women between 30-65 years old, with a recent abnormal pap smear result will be recruited in the colposcopy waiting room. After registration and signing the informed consent form, each woman will be asked to fill out a short self-administered questionnaire for socio-demographic information. Each woman will provide a self-sample as well as an endocervical sample before the colposcopy examination. Both samples of all 200 women (i.e. participants from Belgium and Ecuador) will be tested with the new ELEVATE screening test, using 400 ELEVATE cartridges, as well as with standard tests. Besides analyzing all samples on the new ELEVATE screening test, the following standard tests will also be performed on all samples (at Ghent University - including the shipped samples of Ecuador): * AnyplexTM II HPV HR Detection (Segeene Inc., Korea): approved comparison test * ELISA protein detection: only available comparison test In order to generate HPV DNA results locally, that can be communicated to the participants in short time (versus waiting for AnyplexTM II HPV HR Detection test results after shipment to Belgium), in Ecuador the following additional standard test will be performed on the100 endocervical samples (before shipment to Belgium): • HPV DNA Mole Bioscience test Concordance between the test results of the ELEVATE screening test and standard lab tests on both type of samples will be defined, for HPV DNA as well as protein detection. Additionally, the sensitivity and specificity of the HPV DNA test and the protein test of the ELEVATE screening test will be defined, according to clinically relevant outcomes.
