The purpose of this study is to test the safety and effectiveness of Copper Cu 64 PSMA I&T in detecting lesions during a PET scan. This study is open to men with newly diagnosed prostate cancer who plan to have a prostatectomy and lymph node removal. Copper Cu 64 PSMA I&T is an investigational PET imaging agent, given to you via IV injection, similar to the way other imaging agents are used in many other types of scans. Cu 64 specifically targets the prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) that is found on the surface of metastatic prostate cancer cells. Increased image contrast may make it easier for the doctor to see smaller lesions compared to other imaging agents.

The study includes dose escalation to identify the maximum tolerated or achievable dose (MTD/MAD), dose optimization to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and effectiveness of select doses, and dose expansion to test the recommended dose for monotherapy. IMP1734 is taken as daily oral tablets, and the trial lasts up to three years from the first treatment of the last participant.

The purpose of this study is to understand if a drug called baricitinib can help with thinking and memory problems after COVID-19 infection for people suffering with Long COVID. Some people have thinking and memory problems along with possible difficulty breathing, a racing heart, dizziness, and/or fatigue after COVID-19 called Long COVID. This includes things like having a hard time remembering people’s names, managing money, or keeping a job. For some patients, these issues may last several years. We still do not understand why these problems happen and why they last longer in some people. This study will look at the changes in brain function, heart function, and daily activities after taking baricitinib or placebo for people who experience Long COVID.

The goal of this research is to better understand what causes some pregnancy complications and how this impacts the longer term health of mothers and children.

Respiratory illnesses, including ear and sinus infections, colds, and pneumonias, are among the most common infectious diseases affecting Minnesotans across their lifespan. These diseases can be caused by many different types of microbes—bacteria, viruses and fungi—and different types of microbes may require different kinds of treatment. This research is being done to learn more about the specific types of microbes that cause respiratory infections in children and adults across the state of Minnesota over time. Antimicrobial resistance happens when microbes develop the ability to defeat the drugs designed to kill them. Through this study, we will learn which types of genes are carried by microbes living in the respiratory tract by collecting and analyzing nasal and oral specimen.

Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Prospective Outcomes (IPF-PRO) Registry is a prospective registry that will collect information regarding the natural history, health care interactions, participant reported questionnaire data to assess quality of life of IPF participants, and the methods of treatment of participants with a diagnosis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) established at the enrolling centers. In addition, blood samples will be collected and banked for future research projects.

This study will enroll patients with ovarian cancer who have experienced their cancer worsening after at least two previous treatments. This study will give these patients OPB-101, a genetically engineered CAR-T cell therapy product - a product that will be created from the patient's own T-cells - that the researchers hope has been designed to more accurately recognize and destroy the cancer cells. The goal of this study is to make sure OPB-101 is safe to give, if it is effective against this type of cancer, and to find the best dose of OPB-101 to give patients.
