This research is being done to determine if pectoserratus block with bupivacaine will provide improvement in pain control and decrease opioid use, relative to pectoserratus block with a saline solution, among patients undergoing total shoulder arthroplasty.

This research is being done to assess whether it is safe and effective to stop oral anticoagulation medications (a blood-thinning medication) during prolonged periods of normal heart rhythm in participants with infrequent episodes of atrial fibrillation (AF).

Stem cell transplants (sometimes referred to as a bone marrow transplants) have been done for over 40 years but research continues to further refine the method to reduce side effects without affecting transplant success. The purpose of this study is to improve on transplant outcomes while reducing the potential side effects based on what has been learned from previous transplant studies using a reduced intensity preparative regimen. Information collected during this study (transplant outcomes and side effects) will be compared with the outcomes of the previous reduced intensity conditioning transplant study that enrolled more than 300 patients since 2002.

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.

This is a study of an investigational drug (also known as the “study drug”) called allo-APZ2-OTS as a possible treatment for RDEB. The study drug contains allogeneic dermal ABCB5-positive mesenchymal stromal cells (ABCB5+ MSCs). These cells suppress inflammation and produce proteins that are important for wound healing. The study drug is expected to counteract local inflammation, improve wound healing and skin strength, and speed up wound closure.

We hope to identify patterns in the brain that may be related to symptoms of PD, such as problems with walking. We are also testing different stimulation settings to see if they might be more effective than the settings that are currently used for treatment. This research may aid in our understanding of PD and how to treat it more effectively with DBS.

This protocol will characterize the effects of deep brain stimulation (DBS) location (both adverse and beneficial) on motor signs in people with Parkinson’s disease (PD). This information can be used to inform future DBS protocols to tailor stimulation to the specific needs of a patient. If targeted dorsal GP stimulation is shown to significantly improve motor features that are typically resistant to dopamine replacement therapy, these experiments will likely have major impact on clinical practice by providing a potential strategy to treat medically intractable symptoms.

This is a single center, open label, Phase I clinical trial of bioactive curcumin with high phenolic extra virgin olive oil (HP-EVOO) to treat cutaneous neurofibromas (cNF) in Neurofibromatosis, type 1 (NF1) patients (aged 18 years or older).

The purpose of this research to enhance our understanding of adrenoleukodystrophy ALD and study biospecimens such assaliva, blood, urine and stool to identify potential biomarkers for early identification of dise. We invite people who have or are at risk to have ALD, including females who are known or at risk carriers of the mutation for ALD, to help us learn more.

The purpose of the study is to find out if iptacopan is effective and safe in adult patients with Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH) who switch from their current standard of care treatment (eculizumab or ravulizumab) to iptacopan.

This study is for people who have emphysema (a disorder where too much air collects deep in the lungs) that is caused by the lack of a protein called alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT) in the body. A deficiency of AAT (AATD) can damage lung and liver if not treated. The goal of this study is to evaluate the safety and study the therapeutic effects of INBRX-101 in subjects with AATD emphysema when compared with current approved AATD therapy with A1PI, known as Zemaira®.

The primary purpose of this study is to confirm the findings of our previous allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant trial for non-malignant hematologic disorders that are transfusion dependent or represent other potentially life-threatening cytopenias. Participation in this study will not alter treatment or medical care. All information for this study will be collected from medical records.

The purpose of this research is to better understand balance and walking in patients with Parkinson’s Disease. This research study uses small wearable devices that attach to clothing and can measure the body’s location while performing walking and balance tests.

We are studying the effects of stimulating the vagus nerve. The vagus nerve connects the brain to many organs in the body. Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is already approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat depression and epilepsy. We want to learn more about how it affects other parts of our bodies, such as the heart, metabolism, the immune system, and the nervous system. We hope that by understanding how VNS affects the body as a whole, we can develop new treatments for other conditions, or help to improve its use for depression and epilepsy.

This study investigates a new treatment (TAR-200) for Muscle-Invasive Urothelial Carcinoma (bladder cancer). It assesses whether TAR-200 + Cetrelimab (experimental drug), is effective for patients scheduled for bladder removal surgery who can't undergo standard chemotherapy. The study compares two groups: one receiving TAR-200 + Cetrelimab, and the other receiving only Cetrelimab. The goal is to determine if this combination can provide an alternative treatment option for these patients with bladder cancer.

To compare the effects of treatment with enzalutamide (ENZ) versus darolutamide (DARO) on the cognitive function of men with non-metastatic and metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) by comparing the change in the maximally changed cognitive domain from baseline in patients in each study arm by 24 weeks.

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of the Vanquish System treatment in men who have intermediate risk prostate cancer. In this study, the Vanquish System will be used to destroy cancerous tissue in the prostate. After treatment, participants will undergo tests that will assess presence of prostate cancer.

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.

The purpose of this study is to learn the effects, good or bad, of several possible study treatments for EndoCA that are selected based on genetic markers that can be found in these tumors.

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 determine the dose of medication (Valacyclovir) needed to prevent an infant from developing herpes simplex virus (HSV) if the infant was potentially exposed to HSV at the time of delivery as they passed through the birth canal.

Researchers want to find out more about how physical, cognitive, and emotional factors affect eating.

The purpose of the trial is to evaluate the effect and safety of imlifidase when given to participants with antiGBM disease (also called Goodpasture disease). We will study if the addition of imlifidase to the standard of care treatment results in a better effect without causing unacceptable side effects compared to standard of care alone.

A pilot study looking at an adult-based non-pharmacologic interventional trial in collaboration with psychologist who has expertise in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for adolescents with chronic disease and intellectual disability and developing processes towards independence in non-Sickle Cell Disease settings.

We are studying how well combination chemotherapy, bevacizumab, and/or atezolizumab work in treating people with deficient deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) mismatch repair colorectal cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Chemotherapy drugs, such as fluorouracil, oxaliplatin, and leucovorin calcium, 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. Bevacizumab may stop or slow colorectal cancer by blocking the growth of new blood vessels necessary for tumor growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving combination chemotherapy, bevacizumab, and atezolizumab may work better in treating patients with colorectal cancer.

We are looking at the addition of nivolumab to chemotherapy compared to usual treatment (chemotherapy alone) for the treatment of anal cancer that has spread to other places in the body. Immunotherapy, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Chemotherapy drugs, such as carboplatin and paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells. Giving nivolumab with chemotherapy may help doctors find out if the treatment is better or the same as the usual approach.

We are studying how well trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) and tucatinib work in preventing breast cancer from coming back (relapsing) in patients with high risk, HER2 positive breast cancer. Trastuzumab is a form of targeted therapy because it attaches to specific molecules (receptors) on the surface of cancer cells, known as HER2 receptors, and delivers DM1 to kill them. Tucatinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

We are studying a new topical drug, Clascoternone, to treat adult males who have male pattern baldness. Participants randomly (by chance) receive the drug or an inactive solution that is applied to the area of hair loss twice a day for six months. We will compare the effectiveness and side effects of the two groups. Men who have regrowth of hair may also participate in a second six-month treatment to look at the long-term effectiveness of the drug.

We want to learn more about children and teens strength, endurance, tiredness and level of physical activity. We want to find out how many times children and teens of different ages stand up and sit down in 30-seconds. It will take 10 minutes or less to take part in the study.

COMP360 is a human-made form of the naturally occurring chemical compound, psilocybin which may help in treating depression. In this research study we are comparing COMP360 to placebo, when administered with psychological support from a trained study therapist. Placebo is a substance that has no active medical ingredients and is commonly used in research studies to see if the investigational drug works better or is as safe as not taking anything at all.
