Transcatheter Mitral Valve Replacement with the Medtronic Intrepid™ TMVR System in patients with severe symptomatic mitral regurgitation – APOLLO Trial (APOLLO)

The purpose of this study is to determine if replacing the mitral valve without open-heart surgery is as safe and effective as standard mitral valve surgery in patients with similar medical conditions. This system allows a bioprosthetic mitral valve (investigational valve) to be implanted through a long, thin, flexible tube that is inserted through an incision in the side of the chest or through an incision made in the groin area and through a vein in the leg. Participation in the study is expected to last approximately 5 years from the day the valve is implanted.

Prophylactic Antibiotic Use to Prevent Urinary Tract Infection Following Radical Cystectomy and Urinary Diversion: Randomized Clinical Trial

This research is being done to determine whether not taking oral prophylactic antibiotics after surgery is less effective compared to taking oral prophylactic antibiotics after surgery in preventing urinary tract infections (UTI) within 90 days after surgery. We will divide study participants randomly (similar to tossing a coin) into two groups; one group not receiving postoperative prophylactic antibiotics and the other group receiving prophylactic antibiotics postoperatively. Both groups will receive the exact same preparation before surgery, care during the day of surgery care, postoperative care, and care after hospital discharge.

ANBL2131 - A Phase 3 Study of Dinutuximab Added to Intensive Multimodal Therapy for Children with Newly Diagnosed High-Risk Neuroblastoma

This phase III trial tests how well adding dinutuximab to induction chemotherapy along with standard of care surgery radiation and stem cell transplantation works for treating children with newly diagnosed high risk neuroblastoma. Dinutuximab is a monoclonal antibody that binds to a molecule called GD2, which is found in greater than normal amounts on some types of cancer cells. This helps cells of the immune system kill the cancer cells. Chemotherapy drugs such as cyclophosphamide, topotecan, cisplatin, etoposide, vincristine, dexrazoxane, doxorubicin, temozolomide, irinotecan and isotretinoin, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing or by stopping them from spreading. During induction, chemotherapy and surgery are used to kill and remove as much tumor as possible. During consolidation, very high doses of chemotherapy are given to kill any remaining cancer cells. This chemotherapy also destroys healthy bone marrow, where blood cells are made. A stem cell transplant is a procedure that helps the body make new healthy blood cells to replace the blood cells that may have been harmed by the cancer and/or chemotherapy. Radiation therapy is also given to the site where the cancer originated (primary site) and to any other areas that are still active at the end of induction.

Biomechanical Mechanisms of Soft Tissue Deformation during the Volleyball Spike

No current studies have examined in vivo glenohumeral kinematics during the overhead volleyball spike despite the high prevalence of spike-related shoulder pain. The extreme shoulder positions achieved by volleyball players during the spike motion may contribute to unique deformations that could result in structural change or pathology of the rotator cuff and long head biceps tendons. The purpose of this study is to determine the extent to which GH kinematics differ between SAB and a simulated volleyball spike at a self-selected position of ball contact.

Development of objective measures for multisensory effects on hearing

Paired sound and electrical stimulation can alter how the brain encodes sounds and the perception of sounds, as shown in emerging evidence from animal studies. The aim of this study is to develop measures for paired stimulation that can be used reliably. These measures assess the following aspects of hearing: basic hearing sensitivity and cochlear health, perception of loudness and pitch, and perception of speech and music/complex sounds. This will lead to a greater understanding in the hearing science community about how multisensory stimulation can alter activity in the auditory system and sound perception, which may lead to new techniques for improving hearing disorders.

MT2023-28: A Phase 1 Basket Study Evaluating the Safety and Feasibility of T-Plex, Autologous Customized T Cell Receptor-Engineered T Cells Targeting Multiple Peptide/HLA Antigens in Participants with Antigen-positive Locally Advanced (Unresectable) or Metastatic Solid Tumors

This study aims to find out if investigational new drugs, TSC-204-A0201, TSC-204- A0702 and TSC-200-A0201, can help your cancer better than the standard of care (SOC) that are currently available and accepted by medical experts as a proper treatment. T-cells are part of the immune system and develop from stem cells in the bone marrow. They help protect the body from infection and fight cancer. For this study, T-cells will be collected through a process called leukapheresis. T-cells from your leukapheresis will be used to make the study drugs specifically tailored for you and your immune system. The purpose of the study is to learn if the study drugs are safe and effective in treating your type of cancer.

FAST, RELIABLE, ELECTRICAL UNCONSCIOUS DETECTION

We are interested in learning more about how preconscious thinking works. Preconscious thinking are thoughts you aren't actively thinking about but can be thought of quickly with the right trigger. It is similar to a waiting room for your thoughts. We believe that preconscious thoughts are important for learning more about symptoms related to suicide and psychosis. This research will help us better understand how the preconscious relates to these mental health outcomes. Participants will be asked to complete a research visit where they will complete computer tasks while being monitored with EEG and video recording. We'll also ask participants to complete pre-visit mood check-ins which can be done remotely.

Although allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) is standard treatment for severe aplastic anemia, the use of the lower intensity conditioning drugs with a personalized dosing strategy, low dose total body irradiation (TBI) with dosing based on age and bone marrow abnormalities, and use of the drug cyclophosphamide early after transplant is a newer approach. We are studying whether this new approach is safer and more effective than our previous approach.

MT2022-45 Primary Immune Regulatory Disorders (PIRD): Longitudinal Study of Clinical Presentation, Treatment and Outcomes

Primary Immune Regulatory Disorders (PIRD disorders) are a group of diseases that cause the immune system to function abnormally and cause infections, autoimmunity or inflammation that can begin early in life. PIRD is usually caused by changes in genes in DNA. Researchers are trying to learn what types of medical problems patients with PIRD have and how these respond to treatment. Researchers also want to learn which genes cause PIRD and how it can cause the medical problems of PIRD.

MT2022-44 Analysis of Autoinflammation in Chronic Granulomatous Disease Patients Undergoing Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation or Gene Therapy (PIDTC 6908)

CGD disorders are a group of diseases that cause the immune system to function abnormally, leading to infections, autoimmunity and/or inflammation that can begin early in life. CGD is usually caused by changes in certain genes in DNA. Researchers are trying to learn what types of medical problems patients with CGD have and how these respond to treatment, including bone marrow transplantation and gene therapy. Researchers also want to learn which genes cause CGD and how specific gene abnormalities lead to medical problems.

MT2021-29: Evaluation of intravenous laronidase pharmacokinetics before and after hematopoietic cell transplantation in patients with mucopolysaccharidosis type IH

In this study, the researchers are collecting blood samples to learn more about laronidase treatment in children that receive a hematopoietic cell transplantation. The laronidase dose regimens used after a hematopoietic cell transplantation may differ from those administered before. This study will establish the basis for determining if there is a need to adjust laronidase dosing regimens after receiving a hematopoietic cell transplantation.

Humanitarian Use Device: Medtronic DBS Therapy for Dystonia (HDE #H020007) (Dystonia IRB)

Humanitarian use devices are medical devices approved by the FDA for the treatment of medical conditions affecting fewer than 4,000 patients per year. The FDA reviewed the safety of the device and determined that the probable health benefits outweigh the risks of injury or illness from its use. Effective treatment of symptoms, however, has not been studied in formal clinical trials. Medtronic DBS Therapy delivers electrical stimulation to areas in the brain to help control symptoms of various movement disorders. You may be a candidate for Medtronic DBS Therapy for Dystonia if you have been diagnosed with chronic, intractable (drug refractory) primary dystonia. You or your third party payer (health insurance, Medicare, Medicaid or other) must provide payment for hospital, office and other medical costs related to this therapy.
