This study is about improving our ability to characterize the prevalence of “funky” urine (i.e., urine with an abnormal odor, color, or appearance) in adults with either (1) a history of lower urinary tract reconstruction utilizing bowel and/or (2) catheter-based bladder management. We also aim to determine the frequency with which such patients receive antibiotic treatment for presumed urinary tract infections (UTIs). This may help us better understand how to help patients avoid unnecessary treatment with antibiotics.

The goal of this current study is to test whether men with prostate cancer that is getting worse after treatment with hormone therapy and abiraterone respond better to alternating treatment with testosterone and enzalutamide vs. enzalutamide alone. We are testing to see which is better at stopping tumor growth that can be seen on a bone scan or CT scan and the effect of each regimen on lowering Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA values). Participants will be in the study for 6 to 24 months.

This partially randomized phase III trial studies how well active surveillance, bleomycin, carboplatin, etoposide, or cisplatin work in treating pediatric and adult patients with germ cell tumors. Active surveillance may help doctors to monitor subjects with low risk germ cell tumors after their tumor is removed. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as bleomycin, carboplatin, etoposide, and cisplatin, 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.

The current study aims at testing the efficacy of concomitant temozolomide, Optune and pembrolizumab compared to concomitant temozolomide, Optune and placebo, following preclinical and clinical evidence demonstrating the potential augmentation of the immune response against glioblastoma under this regimen.

This phase III trial compares the effect of the combination of blinatumomab with dasatinib and standard chemotherapy versus dasatinib and standard chemotherapy for treating patients with Philadelphia chromosome positive (PH+) or Philadelphia chromosome-like (Ph-Like) ABL-class B-Cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL). Blinatumomab is a bispecific antibody that binds to two different proteins-one on the surface of cancer cells and one on the surface of cells in the immune system. An antibody is a protein made by the immune system to help fight infections and other harmful processes/cells/molecules. Blinatumomab may bind to the cancer cell and a T cell (which plays a key role in the immune system's fighting response) at the same time. Blinatumomab may strengthen the immune system's ability to fight cancer cells by activating the body's own immune cells to destroy the tumor. Dasatinib is in a class of medications called tyrosine kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of an abnormal protein that signals cancer cells to multiply, which may help keep cancer cells from growing. Giving blinatumomab and dasatinib in combination with standard chemotherapy may work better in treating patients with PH+ or Ph-Like ABL-class B-ALL compared to dasatinib and chemotherapy alone.

This partially randomized phase III trial studies iobenguane I-131 or ALK Inhibitor Therapy and standard therapy in treating younger patients (365 days to 30 years of age) with newly-diagnosed high-risk neuroblastoma or ganglioneuroblastoma.

The purpose of this research is to better understand how listeners take advantage of visual cues to support speech perception during conversations. Experiments will characterize these gaze strategies, describe how they vary with hearing ability and conversational context, and examine how differences in gaze behavior relate to listening effort during conversation.

Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) is a genetic disease which causes cysts to form in the kidneys. Over time as the cysts grow, the kidneys are not able to function the way they should, and may eventually lead to kidney failure. Certain people have a higher risk of developing ADPKD due to their genetic makeup. This study seeks to understand how often different types of PKD1/2 variations occur and the symptoms of ADPKD that people with PKD1/2 variants have. No study drug or devices will be administered.

This study is about discovering how Non-small cell lung cancer becomes resistant to EGFR TKI targeted therapy in order to predict and prevent this cancer from not responding to treatment.

The purpose of this study is to find the best dose of NXC-201 to treat AL amyloidosis. The people in this study have AL amyloidosis that came back or does not get better with treatment. NXC-201 is a cellular therapy made from your own white blood cells called T cells. If you join this study, we will collect some of your T cells and modify (change) them in a lab. This modification will help your T cells find and kill abnormal plasma cells. These genetically changed T cells are called chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells. NXC-201 is a CAR T cell therapy and is given intravenously (by vein). To prepare your body for NXC-201, you will also get fludarabine and cyclophosphamide, which are chemotherapy drugs. After you get NXC-201, you will be in the hospital for at least 10 days.
