Avelumab With Binimetinib, Sacituzumab Govitecan, or Liposomal Doxorubicin in Treating Patients With Stage IV or Unresectable, Recurrent Triple Negative Breast Cancer
Recruiting
This phase II trial studies how well the combination of avelumab with liposomal doxorubicin with or without binimetinib, or the combination of avelumab with sacituzumab govitecan works in treating patients with triple negative breast cancer that is stage IV or is not able to be removed by surgery (unresectable) and has come back (recurrent). Immunotherapy with checkpoint inhibitors like avelumab require activation of the patient's immune system. This trial includes a two week induction or lead-... Read More

UAB Alzheimer's Disease Center Core Cohort - Tau Imaging Substudy
Recruiting
The primary objective of this study is to measure the concentration and the regional brain distribution of pathologic tau deposition using the PET tracer AV-1451 in participants in the UAB-ADC cohort. The amount and distribution of AV-1451 in the brain will be correlated to demographic, clinical, genetic, and biospecimen data acquired through the separate ongoing UAB-ADC study. Assessment of interactions between race and vascular risk factors, brain tau levels measured with AV-1451-PET, and cogn... Read More

Pilot-testing the Effect of Magnetic Mitohormesis Therapy for Treating Frailty in Older Adults
Recruiting
Thirty (30) adults with limited physical function will be recruited to participate in a double-blind pilot randomized controlled crossover trial in which all participants will receive 12-weeks of twice weekly MMT treatment in the first (Phase 1) or second half (Phase 2) of the study period; during the control period, participants will receive sham treatment and will be blinded to the randomization.

Determining the Role of Social Reward Learning in Social Anhedonia
Recruiting
This is a clinical trial study that aims to evaluate the specificity of the relationship between reduced sensitivity to social reward and social anhedonia at both behavioral and neural levels. Individuals who recently experienced their first-episode psychosis will be recruited. Participants will be randomized 1:1 to motivational interviewing or a time- and format-matched control probe. At pre- and post-probe, participants will perform two social reward learning tasks in the scanner. With this de... Read More

Functional Consequences of T-bet Expression in Flu-specific Memory B Cells After Live Attenuated Influenza Vaccine (LAIV)
Recruiting
As yet the investigators do not understand if there are biomarkers of immune protection after the Flumist or Live Attenuated Flu Vaccine (LAIV). Here the investigators test the hypothesis that the T-bet expressing fraction of flu-specific B cells after live attenuated influenza vaccination also serves as an early biomarker of long-lived antibody responses after vaccination. In this study the investigators will be providing the LAIV to up to 10 healthy subjects and assaying their immune response... Read More

Interventions to Decrease Financial Toxicity
Recruiting
Financial distress affects 30-70% of cancer patients and describes the burden that patients experience due to the costs of care (CoC). One reason may be because patients lack the appropriate information on CoC that would help them better plan for and manage their CoC. Therefore, the investigators plan to test a Proactive CoC intervention which includes a discussion with a trained educator on CoC information and a Cost Tracking tool to help patients deal with their CoC.

Molecular Imaging Probes to Inform Heterogeneity in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis
Recruiting
The purpose of the study is to see if imaging with fluorine-18 Fluorodeoxyglucose ([18F] FDG) and fluorine-18 Displacement Per Atom ([18F]DPA-714) using positron emission tomography and computed tomography (PET/CT) will show lung inflammation and fibrosis in patients diagnosed with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). This study may help physicians and researchers better understand how best to treat patients with IPF in the future.

UAB Alzheimer's Disease Center Core Cohort - Imaging Substudy
Recruiting
The primary objective of this study is to measure the concentration and the regional brain distribution of pathologic amyloid deposition using the PET tracer [C-11]PiB in participants in the UAB Alzheimer's Disease Center cohort. Assessment of interactions between race and vascular risk factors, brain amyloid levels measured with [C-11]PiB-PET, and cognitive status will be the primary outcome of this imaging study.

Lenvatinib for the Treatment of Recurrent Hepatocellular Carcinoma After Liver Transplant
Recruiting
This phase II trial evaluates lenvatinib for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) that has come back (recurrent) after a liver transplant. HCC is a cancer of the liver and is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the world. Liver transplantation is a potentially curative treatment option for HCC, however, up to 20% of patients develop recurrent disease after liver transplantation and prognosis remains poor. Lenvatinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some... Read More
