Back pain is one of the most common and disabling chronic pain conditions in the United States. Most cases remain poorly managed and many sufferers, with Black and Hispanic Americans, as well as individuals with less education and income, experiencing poorer outcomes. This project aims to address barriers that currently exist within the healthcare system by co-developing and evaluating with community stakeholders, accessible evidence-based complementary and integrative health approaches that can be offered in community settings.

The purpose of this research is to test how well the investigational study drug, quizartinib, works in patients with AML without a FLT3-ITD mutation who have not received any prior treatment for the disease. The study will test how it works when taken with standard chemotherapy and then taken alone to prevent the disease from coming back.

The goal of this study is to determine if healthy donor microbes released in the small intestine act the same way as healthy donor microbes released in the large intestine for people with Crohn's Disease. We will see what good bacteria are present in intestinal biopsies at 8 weeks and look for improvement in inflammation with colonoscopy.

The purpose of this research is to compare the effects of nivolumab with vusolimogene oderparepvec (VO) against standard of care treatment drug(s) currently available for patients with advanced melanoma. We expect that taking part in this research will last up to 60 months.

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.

The treatment (chemotherapy and transplant procedures) is considered standard clinical care that are usually given to the patients with this disease. The research aspect of this study is to collect data on the patients who are being treated on this plan. Patients will be followed throughout the course of their clinical care and for three years after their transplant.

The purpose of this research study is to see whether an experimental drug, PUL-042 Inhalation Solution (PUL-042), is effective in reducing the severity of lung infections in patients with hematologic malignancies and recipients of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation with viral infections due to PIV, hMPV, or RSV. Participants will receive PUL-042 or a placebo (an inactive agent that appears identical to PUL-042) through a nebulizer. This is a machine that uses a small motor to turn liquid into a mist, like a humidifier, so you can breathe the drug into your lungs. Participants will receive the experimental drug, PUL-042, or a placebo 3 times over a 6-day period.

The purpose of this study is to learn about the safety and efficacy of PC945 when given in combination with the antifungal therapy that is normally given for this condition, also known as the standard of care (SoC). This study will also assess how PC945 is processed in the body (e.g., distributed, transformed, and removed) by measuring the levels of PC945 in your blood and lungs; this is called pharmacokinetics (PK).

The purpose of this study is to compare effects of the study drug fosmanogepix with already-approved drugs caspofungin and fluconazole to find out if fosmanogepix is safe and effective in treating patients with candidemia and/or invasive candidiasis.

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.

This phase II/III trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of the drug cabozantinib in combination with standard chemotherapy, and to compare the effect of adding cabozantinib to standard chemotherapy to standard chemotherapy alone in treating patients with newly diagnosed osteosarcoma. Cabozantinib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of an abnormal protein that signals tumor cells to multiply. This helps slow or stop the spread of tumor cells. The drugs used in standard chemotherapy for this trial are methotrexate, doxorubicin, and cisplatin. Methotrexate stops cells from making DNA and may kill tumor cells. It is a type of antimetabolite. Doxorubicin is in a class of medications called anthracyclines. It works by slowing or stopping the growth of tumor cells in the body. Cisplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. It works by killing, stopping or slowing the growth of tumor cells. Adding cabozantinib to standard chemotherapy may work better in treating newly diagnosed osteosarcoma.

The purpose of this research is to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of a new investigational drug called CRN04894, also called atumelnant for treating pediatric participants with Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH). We want to see how safe atumelnant is at different doses and how well the body accepts (tolerates) it and how it moves through the body (how it gets in, spreads around, gets used, and then leaves), also known as pharmacokinetics (PK). We also want to see if if atumelnant produces the expected effect in the body, if it helps control the CAH, and if we can reduce the steroid (GC) dose.

This is a small, Phase 0, window of opportunity study to provide human experience to support our pre-clinical data and gain preliminary information regarding the safety and tolerability of mirdametinib and vorinostat when given in combination.

Currently, more than half of all women who are able to quit smoking cigarettes during pregnancy start smoking again within six months after they give birth. We want to find out if the drug bupropion (a commercially-available medicine) can help women who quit smoking during pregnancy to continue not smoking after they give birth. All study visits can be completed either in-person or virtually.

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 main purpose of this study is to learn how well tinengotinib works and how safe tinengotinib is compared with the study doctor’s choice of chemotherapy treatment. The purpose of Part A of the study will be to determine the best dose of tinengotinib to use in Part B of the study. The purpose of Part B is to learn more about how well tinengotinib works and how safe it is compared with the study doctor’s choice of treatment.

The primary research element is to determine whether a graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis regimen of post-transplant cyclophosphamide, tacrolimus and MMF will reduce the likelihood of chronic GVHD in patients receiving a standard hematopoietic myeloablative stem cell transplant. The treatment related components of this protocol are established clinical practices. We are looking at cumulative incidence of chronic GVHD requiring systemic immunosuppressive treatment at 1 year post-transplant.

The BEET PAD Trial is a multi-centered double-blind randomized clinical trial of beetroot juice vs. placebo in 210 people with PAD. We hypothesize that by simultaneously increasing lower extremity perfusion, gastrocnemius muscle mitochondrial activity, and myofiber health and regeneration, beetroot juice will significantly improve walking performance in people with PAD. Our primary aim is to determine whether beetroot juice significantly improves six-minute walk distance at 4-month follow-up in people with PAD, compared to placebo. Preliminary evidence suggests that beetroot juice has both acute and chronic effects on walking performance in PAD. Our primary outcome will measure the combined acute and chronic effect of beetroot juice (i.e. the maximal effect) on change in 6-minute walk at 4-month follow-up. In secondary aims, we will distinguish between acute and chronic effects of beetroot juice on six-minute walk and delineate biologic pathways by which beetroot juice improves walking performance in PAD, by measuring change in gastrocnemius muscle perfusion (MRI arterial spin labeling), and gastrocnemius muscle health. We will assess the durability of beetroot juice effects on six-minute walk. Nitrate in beetroot juice is metabolized to nitrite and subsequently to NO, attaining peak nitrite levels 2.5 hours after ingestion (1). Inter-individual variability exists in the extent of metabolic conversion of nitrate to nitrite (1,2). Therefore, we will determine whether a higher peak or a greater increase in plasma nitrite at 2.5 hours after beetroot juice consumption at baseline has a greater effect on six-minute walk at 4-month follow-up, compared to a lower peak or a smaller increase, respectively. To achieve our specific aims, we will randomize 210 participants age 50 and older with PAD to one of two groups: beetroot juice vs placebo. Participants will be followed for 4.5 months.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and ability of a transplant with gene modified stem cells (autologous stem cell transplant) to treat sickle cell disease. Participants must have received investigational gene therapy with bb1111 in a clinical study sponsored by bluebird bio. There is no additional treatment associated with this study as this is a long-term follow-up study.

The purpose of this study is to understand if a new tool will help improve early detection of pulmonary hypertension (PH) in patients with interstitial lung disease. Pulmonary hypertension is high blood pressure in the pulmonary artery (which carries blood from your heart to the lungs). We are testing a tool that looks at an electrocardiogram (ECG) to find patients who are identified as being high risk for having PH that is not yet diagnosed. Participation in this study will last approximately six months.
