We are doing this study to see if we can lower the chance of endometrial cancer coming back and causing death by adding a drug or drugs that target HER2 proteins in addition to the usual combination of chemotherapy drugs. We want to find out if this approach is better or worse than the usual approach for your endometrial cancer. The usual approach is defined as care most people get for endometrial cancer, which in this case would be chemotherapy.

The purpose of this study is to test a new treatment approach for adults with high blood pressure that has been difficult to control with medication. Researchers will study how well the treatment helps lower blood pressure and learn more about participants’ experiences with the treatment.

AML is a type of blood cancer where infection fighting cells called white blood cells (WBCs) don’t grow up or “mature” like they are supposed to. Instead, they stay stuck as infant or immature “blast” cells. This study will investigate the potential risks and benefits of adding a targeted therapy called ziftomenib to intensive therapy (7+3) OR non-intensive (Venetoclax + Azacitidine) for patients whose cancers are found to have KMT2A rearrangements or mutations in the NPM1 gene. We will also see if the use of ziftomenib as maintenance therapy following consolidation is beneficial.

The upfront treatment for astrocytoma is surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy. There is currently no standard therapy for when the astrocytoma has returned (recurs) or re-grows (progresses). This study uses the investigational drug FT536, a cell therapy that stimulates the immune system into action to treat astrocytoma that has returned or regrown. FT536 is a type of cell therapy made up of “natural killer” or NK cells, a type of immune blood cell that are known to attack cancer cells. The primary purpose of this study is to identify a safe dose of FT536 cells when given as an intratumoral injection and to identify the side effects of treatment with FT536. Another purpose of this study is to understand how FT536 alters the immune system in the brain and body.

We have determined that the microbes (bacteria) in the colon can play a role in causing and preventing complications of colon surgery. While the surgical bowel prep before surgery eliminates the harmful bacteria, it also eliminates the beneficial bacteria that aid wound healing. The purpose of this study is to determine if we can restore the presence of good bacteria (also known as ‘intestinal microbiota’) in the colon by transplanting them from a healthy donor.

To evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of VX-407 in participants with Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease with PKD1 gene variants

The purpose of the study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of a new procedure to treat Mucopolysaccharidosis Type I Hurler-Scheie and Scheie (MPS I). This procedure involves collecting some white blood cells (termed “B cells”) and growing them outside of the body in a laboratory. While the cells are in the lab, the B cells will be changed to produce more of the IDUA that is missing. This process is called “genetic modification.” The newly modified B cells are then infused back into the participant.

This clinical study is for adults whose cancer has spread to the bones of the middle or lower back (spine). Doctors are comparing two common treatments: (1) a needle procedure to treat the tumor and strengthen the bone, followed by radiation, and (2) radiation therapy alone. The goal is to see which option better relieves pain, protects the spine, and improves quality of life. The treatment you receive will be chosen at random (by chance), meaning you will be placed into a study group by chance.

The purpose of this study is to help investigators learn more about what are the best methods for diagnosing and monitoring lung problems.

The purpose of this study is to develop a cohort of patients with early scleroderma, and to collect data on clinical outcomes, radiological tests, laboratory tests and to obtain biological specimens for testing.We hope to explore medical care and the impact of SSc on patients' daily lives through various questionnaires that will be collected during study participation. By looking at all of the areas mentioned, we hope to find out information about SSc that will help treat future patients, develop new treatments, and work towards a cure.

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.

The purpose of this study is to learn more about hearing and speech understanding in people with low-frequency hearing loss, with the goal of improving future diagnosis and treatment options.

The purpose of this research is to test safety, efficacy and compare the effects of a combination therapy involving inavolisib plus a CDK4/6i (palbociclib) and letrozole versus placebo plus a CDK4/6i (palbociclib) and letrozole on patients with HR+, HER2- advanced breast cancer (ABC). In this study, you will get either inavolisib plus palbociclib and letrozole or placebo plus palbociclib and letrozole. A placebo looks like a drug but has no active ingredient.

Women with cystic fibrosis (CF) during peri- and postmenopausal stages may be at increased risk for cardiovascular disease, partly mediated by accelerated cardiometabolic risks. This cross-sectional study aims to address critical gaps in understanding cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk in women with CF and will inform early interventions tailored to this growing population.

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.

The purpose of this study is to learn more about ocular (relating to the eye) side-effects of tisotumab vedotin (brand name: TIVDAK™). A side effect is anything the drug does to your body besides treating your disease. It is approved for women with cervical cancer that has spread through the body or come back during or after chemotherapy. We are doing a study to understand whether there are any ocular side-effects of TIVDAK.

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.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety of administering BAFFR-CAR T cells in participants with relapsed or refractory (r/r) B- cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL). We also will determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD)/RP2D of BAFFR-CART cells.

The purpose of the study is to establish and maintain a biorepository of tissue and biospecimen samples relevant to Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) research. We will obtain, store, and catalogue peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), blood and blood components, skin punch biopsy samples, and cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) from people living with ALS, linked to clinical datasets, to advance ALS research.

This research is being completed to examine the cells, brain imaging, and speech in individuals with REM Sleep Behavior Disorder who are taking serotonergic medications such as Citalopram, Escitalopram, Fluoxetine, Fluvoxamine, Paroxetine and Sertraline. The purpose of examining these is to try and see if we can predict signs of Dementia with Lewy bodies (a progressive form of dementia with an increase in decline of thinking, reasoning, and other functions). This may benefit others by enabling us to diagnose Dementia with Lewy Bodies sooner rather than later.

This research is being done to help us better understand the different DNA repair disorders. We will collect data and samples that we will use to develop new therapies and medicine to help treat the disease. We expect that participants will be in this research study for 3 years. Visits will occur every six months and alternate between in-person and remote. Remote visits should be expected to last 1-2 hours, and in-person visits should be expected to last 3-4 hours.

This research study is for participants who have an inherited neuromuscular disorder or neurogenetic disorder, or family members who are unaffected by such disorders

We are recruiting only healthy participants who do not have REM sleep behavior disorder. The information gained from this study will help the investigators understand more about REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD), and the possible underlying neurologic disorders that can cause RBD.

The purpose of this study is to find out if a study drug called BI 765423 can improve lung function in people with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). This study compares BI 765423 with a placebo to see if there is a difference in lung function or blood test results related to lung health after 3 month. The placebo looks like BI 765423 but does not contain any active drug.

This study is testing an compound called TP-3654, which is an investigational product being developed for Myelofibrosis.

This study is for people who have been diagnosed with cancer that is advanced (means disease has spread from the original site or has come back) or is metastatic (means the disease has spread to other parts of the body). FOG-001 is currently being developed to treat people with cancer. We want see how safe and tolerable FOG-001 is when given alone and together with other anticancer drugs at different dose levels in participants. We also want to see how FOG-001 affects the body and the cancer

The purpose of this study is to better understand heart and blood vessel health in adults conceived through assisted reproductive technology (such as IVF) compared to adults conceived naturally. Participants will complete one study visit lasting approximately 3–4 hours. During the visit, participants will complete questionnaires, have basic health measurements taken, and complete non-invasive tests that assess blood pressure, blood vessel function, and circulation. Researchers hope the findings will improve understanding of long-term cardiovascular health in adults conceived through assisted reproductive technology.

This study tests whether the study drug, a T-cell engager therapy engineered to have fewer off-target effects by increasing its specificity to tumor cells, is safe and tolerable in subjects with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) The study will also assess the potential Phase 2 dose regimens and determine a recommended Phase 2 dose.

We have determined that the microbes (bacteria) in the colon can play a role in causing and preventing complications of colon surgery. While the surgical bowel prep before surgery eliminates the harmful bacteria, it also eliminates the beneficial bacteria that aid wound healing. The purpose of this study is to determine if we can restore the presence of good bacteria (also known as ‘intestinal microbiota’) in the colon by transplanting them from a healthy donor.

This study will help to identify challenges and barriers to self-performing anal cancer screening tests, and may identify unique ways to make this form of screening easier, more cost-effective, and more frequently performed. We believe that it has the potential to minimize the frequency of both disease and death from anal cancer among high-risk patient groups.
