This study looks at the use of an implanted brain stimulator for people who have treatment resistant depression. The change in brain function by EEG and symptoms of depression will be examined. This study is open to people 22-70 years old with Medicare or Medicare Advantage insurance.

This study will evaluate the safety and tolerability of EG 70, a gene therapy, which is given inside the bladder. This study will measure its effectiveness on eliminating bladder tumors in participants with NMIBC who have failed or did not receive adequate Bacillus Calmette- Guérin (BCG) therapy. The study drug will be given into the lining of the bladder. This may cause an immune response inside the bladder and kill the cancer cells.

This study is being done to learn more about the influence of the menopausal transition on autonomic and vascular function in midlife females. Participants will have their vitals taken and height, weight and waist-to-hip ratio measurements done, complete questionnaires, have blood draws, have electrical activity of a nerve in the leg measured (optional), have blood vessel function measured in the arm, perform breathing exercises, and complete a cold pressor test (putting a hand in ice-cold water). Participants will also have a scan to measure body composition and bone density.

The purpose of this project is to provide new knowledge of the relationship between structural and functional changes in cortico-basal ganglia pathways and the severity of motor and non-motor deficits in humans with PD.

To determine the prognostic factors for visual outcome for newly diagnosed NF1-OPGs. Hypothesis: Patients (<18 years of age) with tumors involving the optic tracts and/or radiations will demonstrate worse visual outcomes compared to those without optic tract involvement.

This is a study of persons who do and do not stutter between ages 4 and 65 years. This study is trying to figure out how attention skills influence memory, language, and speech fluency skills.

The purpose of this study is to capture clinical information on how kidney disease affects the health of women, focusing on menstrual and reproductive health, the transition to menopause (the time when your menstrual periods stop permanently), and menopause itself. We also wish to learn more about how women’s health affects their kidney disease, bone and heart health.

This research study is for people who have Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) and it is moderate or severe in intensity and have been treated with at least one conventional therapy for HS. This study involves the investigational drug SBT777101, which is created by genetically modifying a patient’s own immune cells. The word “investigational” means that this drug has not been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for marketing. SBT777101 is being developed to treat people with hidradenitis suppurativa (HS).

The purpose of this screening study is to collect samples to conduct the testing of specific human leukocyte antigen (HLA). TScan Therapeutics is developing cellular therapies across multiple solid tumors in which the eligibility criteria require that participants have specific HLA types. The results from this screening study will be used to determine if participants meet the eligibility criteria and could potentially be enrolled in a future TScan treatment study.

The purpose of RESTORATiVE303 is to see if the study drug, which is called VE303, is safe and effective in preventing another episode of Clostridioides Difficile Infection (CDI). VE303 is an investigational drug that has 8 strains of live bacteria, called “commensals.” Commensals are the type of bacteria that live in harmony with the body, without harming health. These specific bacteria are often found in the intestines of normal, healthy people. They were selected for inclusion in VE303 because they rarely infect humans (mostly in very weakened patients), they do not carry any toxins that can make one sick, and they are not known to carry any risk of creating or spreading resistance to antibiotics.

This study is recruiting people who have developed an infection of the lower intestine (the colon) by bacteria called Clostridioides difficile (abbreviated C. difficile or C. diff). The standard treatment for this infection is with antibiotics, but in some people, the infection keeps coming back. The purpose of this research is to test whether an investigational drug can prevent a return of the infection. We want to make sure LMN-201 is safe when used as part of standard of care for C. diff, and we want to see if we can improve treatment and reduce re-infection.

We are hoping to gain a better understanding of what patients with cancer, their care givers, and clinicians value and how they make decisions regarding different treatment options. We are interested in your opinion since you understand what it is like for people to undergo cancer treatment. You will be asked a series of questions that will take about 30 minutes.

To determine the prevalence, type, and severity of chronic health conditions (CHC) in survivors of Down syndrome-associated acute leukemia (DS-AL), and to compare CHC with frequency-matched DS individuals that have no cancer history.

The purpose of this study is to help investigators learn more about lung problems after bone marrow transplant including what are the best methods for diagnosing lung problems and follow-up care. The lung problems that may develop after transplant varies from patient to patient, and we don’t exactly know what risk factors influence who develops them or how patients respond to pulmonary (breathing system) therapies. Also, we wish to improve how we monitor lung function and quality of life after transplant, especially in children and young adults.

We will examine whether the benefits of brain stimulation on mental functioning can be enhanced if an individual is actively engaging the target brain networks while receiving brain stimulation. The study includes two separate sessions and people will complete either a cognitive task or a perceptual task while we are measuring the change in brain function with EEG. Please fill out the linked screening questionnaire to determine if you are eligible.

To evaluate the efficacy of ravulizumab compared with placebo to reduce proteinuria in adult participants with IgAN

The purpose of the study is to compare two surgical procedures and their ability to decrease the risk of developing ovarian cancer for pre-menopausal women with BRCA1 mutations.

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 primary purpose of this study is to identify a safe dose of GTB-3650. The study also provides preliminary disease response information for larger future studies. GTB-3650 is designed to target CD33 on leukemia/MDS cells. Cancer cells must overexpress CD33 (also referred to as CD33+), a marker found in some blood/bone marrow cancers. Based on similar studies and lab studies, it is felt there is a chance of benefit from the study treatment but the duration of benefit is unknown.

This study is to investigate if robotic assisted laparoscopy (small incision surgery), is worse than open surgery (otherwise known as a laparotomy) when performing a radical hysterectomy for cervical cancer. Previous research has been done and shown that patients receiving laparoscopy had an increased risk of recurrence of their cervical cancer. But since that time a lot has been learned and improvements have been made, hence why we are relooking at the differences between the two surgical approaches.

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.

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.

The purpose of this study is to test the safety and effectiveness of Copper Cu 64 PSMA I&T in detecting lesions during a PET scan. This study is open to men with newly diagnosed prostate cancer who plan to have a prostatectomy and lymph node removal. Copper Cu 64 PSMA I&T is an investigational PET imaging agent, given to you via IV injection, similar to the way other imaging agents are used in many other types of scans. Cu 64 specifically targets the prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) that is found on the surface of metastatic prostate cancer cells. Increased image contrast may make it easier for the doctor to see smaller lesions compared to other imaging agents.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and ability of a transplant with your own gene modified stem cells (autologous stem cell transplant) to treat sickle cell disease. The goal is to determine if a sufficient amount of hemoglobin that prevents red blood sickling can be produced after the gene modified stem cells are returned to your body. This study may provide information on the potential usefulness of bb1111 for treatment of sickle cell disease

This study tests IMP1734, a PARP1-selective inhibitor, in patients with breast, ovarian, or metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) with specific HRR gene mutations. The study includes dose escalation to identify the maximum tolerated or achievable dose (MTD/MAD), dose optimization to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and effectiveness of select doses, and dose expansion to test the recommended dose for monotherapy. IMP1734 is taken as daily oral tablets, and the trial lasts up to three years from the first treatment of the last participant.

The purpose of this study is to understand if a drug called baricitinib can help with thinking and memory problems after COVID-19 infection for people suffering with Long COVID. Some people have thinking and memory problems along with possible difficulty breathing, a racing heart, dizziness, and/or fatigue after COVID-19 called Long COVID. This includes things like having a hard time remembering people’s names, managing money, or keeping a job. For some patients, these issues may last several years. We still do not understand why these problems happen and why they last longer in some people. This study will look at the changes in brain function, heart function, and daily activities after taking baricitinib or placebo for people who experience Long COVID.

The purpose of this study is to compare treatment with quemliclustat, nab-paclitaxel and gemcitabine to treatment with placebo (inactive drug), nab-paclitaxel and gemcitabine for people who have metastatic pancreatic cancer.

We are looking at a new drug called 'ziltivekimab' to see if it can be used to treat people living with heart failure and inflammation. People will get either ziltivekimab or a placebo (inactive dummy drug). The study drug is an injection given into the fold of the skin on the stomach, thigh or upper arm once every month. People will take the study drug for up to 4 years.
