This registry study uses a standardized form to capture data from consecutive patients with aortic dissection at participating hospitals.

We are studying the brain patterns of people who have anorexia nervosa and those who don't have anorexia nervosa. We will look at MRIs, behavioral measures, and questionnaires to see if we can identify the brain activity associated with disgust. There will be a follow-up at 6 and 12 months.

The objective is to conduct a longitudinal investigation of the natural history, complications, and therapeutic outcomes in people with acute and cutaneous porphyria.

This is a prospective, non-interventional, research study for patients with IBD under the care of a certified gastroenterologist. The primary objective for this registry is to prospectively study the natural history of IBD, the prevalence and incidence of comorbidities, targeted adverse events, and more, via questionnaires.

This study is comparing the benefits and adverse effects of two delivery methods to help patients relax and decrease anxiety during his/her time on mechanical ventilation. This study is not examining the medication but rather the process of how the patient receives the sedation medication: patient controlled or usual care.

The purpose of this research project is to develop a registry and database of families with neurodevelopmental disorders.

Background: Distal radius fractures (DRF) account for nearly one-fifth of all fractures in older adults, and women experience them 5x as often as men. Most DRF occur with low impact injuries to the wrist with an outstretched hand, and are often managed via closed treatment and cast immobilization. Women sustaining a DRF are at risk for upper limb immobility, sensorimotor changes, edema and type I complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS). Since CRPS onset is likely influenced by alterations in the brain’s somatosensory region, a rehabilitation intervention, Graded Motor Imagery (GMI), aims to restore cortical representation, including sensory and motor function, of the affected limb. To date, there are no studies on the use of GMI in reducing risk of or preventing the onset of type I CRPS in women with DRF treated with cast immobilization. Due to a higher likelihood of women with this injury developing type I CRPS, it is important to early intervention is needed. Methods/Design: This article describes a six-week randomized comparative effectiveness trial, where the outcomes of a modified GMI program (mGMI) + standard of care (SOC) group (n=33) are compared to a SOC only control group (n=33). Immediately following cast immobilization, both groups participate in four 1-hour clinic-based sessions, and a home program for 10 minutes three times daily until cast removal. Blinded assessments occur within 1 week of cast immobilization (baseline), at three weeks post cast immbolization, cast removal, and at three months post cast removal. The primary outcomes are patient reported wrist/hand function and symptomology on the Patient Rated Wristand Hand Evaluation, McGill Pain Questionnaire, and Budapest CRPS Criteria. The secondary outcomes are grip strength, active range of motion as per goniometry, circumferential edema measurements, and joint position sense. Discussion: This study will investigate the early effects of mGMI + SOC hand therapy compared to SOC alone. We intend to investigate whether an intervention, specifically mGMI, used to treat preexisiting pain and motor dysfunction might also be used to mitigate these problems prior to their onset. If positive effects are observed, mGMI + SOC may be considered for incorporation into early rehabilitation program.

The Syner-G regimen research study seeks to evaluate the use of a combination of a medication called miglustat and a ketogenic diet for treatment of the gangliosidoses to learn if this combination will provide improved clinical outcomes compared to what we currently know about the natural course of the disease.

This is a research study documenting the natural history of disease in patients with GM1 or GM2 gangliosidosis. The information collected will be a way to evaluate disease progression and create a disease stage and severity index. Our goal is to use the data collected to measure the effectiveness of any treatments that are developed in the future.

The purpose of this study is to learn more about an investigational drug called ifinatamab deruxtecan (I-DXd; DS-7300. It is being studied to see if it is safe, and if cancer improves while taking it. I-DXd is a type of drug called an antibody drug conjugate (ADC). ADCs are made to attach to tumor cells to deliver chemotherapy directly to tumor cells while sparing healthy cells.

FT536 is a type of cell product made up of “natural killer” or NK cells. NK cells are a type of immune blood cell that are known to attack cancer cells. FT536 is produced by growing cells that come from a healthy human donor. The primary purpose of this study is to identify a safe dose of FT536 cells when given alone (monotherapy).

The purpose of this screening study is to collect samples to conduct the testing of specific human leukocyte antigen (HLA). TScan Therapeutics is developing cellular therapies across multiple solid tumors in which the eligibility criteria require that participants have specific HLA types. The results from this screening study will be used to determine if participants meet the eligibility criteria and could potentially be enrolled in a future TScan treatment study.

This is a research study designed to test how well a new medication (xaluritamig) works compared to other treatments for people with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. These patients have already been treated with a certain chemotherapy. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: xaluritamig or either cabazitaxel (existing cancer treatment) or another treatment chosen by the doctor. The goal of the study is to find out which treatment is more effective and safer for patients.

In this study, we want to find out more about secondhand smoke from shisha smoking in the home. We want to help families learn more about the risks of shisha smoke in the home and find ways to stop smoking at home.

This study will enroll patients with a blood cancer who need to undergo a stem cell (bone marrow) transplant using a donor that is not a full DNA match with them. It tests TRX103, a cellular therapy, to see if it is an effective and safe way to prevent Graft versus Host Disease (GvHD), a common and potentially serious side effect of stem cell transplant.

This research study is for participants who have a weakened immune system (are immunocompromised), have a lower lung infection and are currently using a machine or device to help them breathe. The study will look at whether the study drug, DAS181, works and how safe it is compared with a placebo in adults who have a weakened immune system (immunocompromised) and a parainfluenza virus (PIV) infection of the lower respiratory tract. A placebo looks the same as the study drug but does not contain any active ingredients.

A study to evaluate if the randomized addition of venetoclax to a chemotherapy backbone (fludarabine/cytarabine/gemtuzumab ozogamicin [GO]) improves survival of children/adolescents/young adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in 1st relapse who are unable to receive additional anthracyclines, or in 2nd relapse.

This study it to test an investigational vaccine called mRNA-1647 that is being developed for preventing cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection in people. CMV is a common virus that can spread easily through an infected person’s saliva or other body fluids such as blood, urine, and breast milk. We want see if the trial vaccine can prevent CMV infection in participants who have not been previously infected, to understand the safety (how many side effects you may have) of the trial vaccine, and to see if the trial vaccine results in participants making antibodies to CMV.

We are studying the safety and feasibility of microbiota transplant therapy (MTT) for patients with Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC). The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether MTT from a healthy donor is safe and can be used to restore the healthy composition of microbiota to help decrease disease severity and improve symptoms. All patients in this study will receive capsules of the drug, MTT.

This study has 2 parts: a double-blind period and an open-label extension. In the double-blind period of this study, the study medicine will be compared to a placebo. A placebo is a treatment that looks and tastes exactly like the study medicine but does not contain any active ingredient. In this study, you will receive leriglitazone or placebo. Whether you receive leriglitazone or placebo will be decided randomly (by chance, like flipping a coin). In this study, 1 out of every 2 subjects (50%) will receive leriglitazone and 1 out of every 2 subjects (50%) will receive placebo. To make this study fair, you and the study doctor will not be told which treatment you will receive, this is called “blinding”. In the open-label extension, all subjects will receive leriglitazone.

There are 2 phases to this clinical research study: Phase 1 (dose escalation) and Phase 2 (dose expansion). The goal of Phase 1 is to find the recommended dose of the study drug IDP-023 that can be given alone (referred to as a “monotherapy”), with or without interleukin-2 (IL-2) and in combination with another anti-cancer drug, either daratumumab in subjects with relapsed/refractory MM or rituximab in subjects with relapsed/refractory NHL. The goal of Phase 2 is to learn if the recommended dose of IDP-023 found in Phase 1 with or without IL-2 can help to control advanced MM or NHL when given in combination with daratumumab or rituximab, respectively.

This study aims to reduce the radiotherapy (RT) dose necessary to successfully treat patients with intracranial germ cell tumors who are in a state of complete response (CR) following chemotherapy. In this study, a further reduction in whole ventricular irradiation (WVI) will be tested. The primary aim of the study is to determine whether 12 Gy of WVI, and 12 Gy tumor boost, would be successful. Event-free survival (EFS) in patients with central nervous system germinoma, who meet criteria for CR or continued complete response (CCR) following chemotherapy/second-look surgery, would be the primary measurement of success.

While hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) is an effective therapy, as many as 25% of patients develop problems with their lungs as a result of this treatment. Bronchiolitis obliterans (BO) is a type of lung injury after HSCT due to graft versus host disease. BO is commonly diagnosed late in patients, when lung injury is hard to treat and can be irreversible, leading to long-term lung disease or even death. The purpose of this research is to learn more about ruxolitinib as an early treatment for lung injury and BO after HSCT. Patients who are diagnosed with early lung dysfunction will be eligible for this research study.

This research trial studies the Project: Every Child for younger patients with cancer. Gathering health information over time from younger patients with cancer may help doctors find better methods of treatment and on-going care.

The research aspect of this trial is the use of a new machine to remove specific lymphocytes from the donor’s peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs). This is called T cell receptor alpha/beta T cell depletion. This machine does such a good job at removing the unwanted donor T cells, and as a result we think patients will need fewer drugs to suppress their immune system.

The main purpose of this study is to look at how safe and well tolerated the study drug is in combination with ribociclib (Group 1) or alpelisib (Group 2), the levels of the study drug and ribociclib or alpelisib in your blood, and how your body and your cancer respond.

The purpose of this study is to test the safety of FT825 at different doses and to understand the way the body processes and responds to FT825. The study will also find out what effects FT825, when given with or without a monoclonal antibody (cetuximab) and different chemotherapy regimens, have on cancer. FT825 is a type of cell product made up of “T cells.” T cells are part of your immune system and are important in helping fight infections. T cells are also important in eliminating cancer cells.
