The LifeSkills Mobile app will be evaluated in a randomized controlled trial (RCT) among 5,000 young transgender women (YTW), ages 16-29 in the United States (U.S.). Study findings will demonstrate if the intervention will reduce HIV incidence. Read Less

Studies have shown that the anti-GD2 human-mouse chimeric monoclonal antibody dinutuximab has contributed significantly to the improvement of treatment for children with high-risk neuroblastoma and has become a mainstay in treating high risk neuroblastoma in children as part of up-front therapy and relapsed/refractory therapy. The administration of dinutuximab requires a significant amount of time and resources to complete the 10-20 hour standard infusion time for 4 days in the inpatient setting. During its early development, a phase I study profiling the clinical efficacy and tolerability of dinutuximab infusions in children successfully infused dinutuximab at various rates including over 1 hour at different dose levels. In the adult setting, dinutuximab has been tolerated over substantially shorter infusion times (less than 2 hours). Additionally, another anti-GD2 murine monoclonal antibody naxitamab, which has a similar toxicity profile to dinutuximab, is FDA approved for administration over 90 minutes and is successfully administered in outpatient setting. Given this reassuring data the investigators aim to evaluate the feasibility of the rapid administration of dinutuximab over four hours or less in our patient population of children with high-risk neuroblastoma. The pharmacokinetics, toxicity profile and supportive care requirements will be analyzed and described in order to determine if rapid infusion of dinutuximab can be successfully tolerated over four hours or less which would allow for administration of this agent in the outpatient setting. Should this trial prove to be successful, it would serve to decrease the hospital burden in a positive way by allowing for administration of this immunotherapy agent in the outpatient setting and patients may prefer shorter infusion duration. Furthermore, it could lessen overall costs and inpatient admissions for patients. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to learn about the effects of a study medicine, WGI-0301 to find the best dose for treating solid tumors, and to see how safe and tolerable the study drug is for patients with solid tumors. The study is also done to learn how the study drug is taken up by your body; this is called Pharmacokinetic (PK) studies and how the study drug affects the body; this is called Pharmacodynamics (PD) Read Less

This is a Phase 1, open-label, 2-part, multi-center study evaluating the safety, tolerability, PK, pharmacodynamics (PD), immunogenicity, and antitumor activity of CUE-102 intravenous (IV) monotherapy in HLA-A*0201 positive patients with WT1 positive recurrent/metastatic solid tumors who have failed conventional therapies.

The purpose of this investigator-initiated prospective observational cohort study is to establish the new UCLA Perinatal Biospecimen Repository (Perinatal Repository) for collection, storage, and distribution of the human data and biospecimens of the participants with perinatal pathology. The secure and shared high-quality resource of clinical data and biological specimens (Repository Materials), across pregnancy pathology related to research protocols at the Afshar's Lab will be created. Core variables of interest include clinical characteristics and relevant biological samples. Intention to collect perinatal data is aiding the efficiency and effectiveness of de-identified biorepository for pregnancy-at-risk outcome research. The primary aims of the project are: To design the Case Report Forms (CRFs) for the clinical and biospecimen data. To create and update the project-specific policies, agreements, and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs). To develop the data management system to assure personal health information de-identification, data integrity, participants welfare, and protocol compliance. To develop and implement a quality management system for the Repository. To collect and record in the Repository protocol-related clinical information. To organize a consistent system to bank high-quality biospecimens while protecting participant-donor safety and privacy. To establish the policies and procedures for Repository Materials dissemination and research collaboration. To analyze the scientific results of the Repository creation. The secondary aim of the study is to provide a mechanism to store and share for research purposes the de-identified biospecimen and information about participants at risk for adverse pregnancy outcomes.

The purpose of this study is to examine the usefulness of implanting small 24-K gold fiducial markers around a bladder tumor site, so that a Radiation Oncologist can identify the original tumor location at the time of radiation treatment. Other goals of the study include assessing whether a new MRI imaging technology can help with detection of bladder cancer earlier and more accurately when evidence of bladder cancer is not visible by scope.

This double-blind, randomized, crossover trial aims to test the hypothesis that longer-term indoor air filtration intervention can slow atherothrombosis progression by reducing indoor fine particulate matter (PM2.5) exposure in adults with ischemic heart disease history. Read Less

This is a first-in-human, open-label, dose escalation and expansion study of UCART22 administered intravenously to patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (B-ALL). The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and clinical activity of UCART22 and determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) Read Less

Several strategies or contexts help patients with Parkinson's disease to move more quickly or normally, however the brain mechanisms underlying these phenomena are poorly understood. The proposed studies use intraoperative recordings during DBS surgery for Parkinson's disease to understand the brain mechanisms supporting improved movements elicited by external cues. The central hypothesis is that distinct networks are involved in movement improvement depending on characteristics of the facilitating stimulus. Participants will perform movement tasks during awake surgery performed exclusively for clinical indications. The identified biomarkers may provide targets for future neuromodulation therapies to improve symptoms that are refractory to current treatments, such as freezing of gait. Read Less

The SMR Stemless Reverse is intended for total, primary shoulder joint replacement by reducing pain and restoring shoulder articular mobility function. This is a prospective, multi-center, randomized, controlled trial to demonstrate non-inferiority of the SMR Stemless Reverse to the SMR Reverse Shoulder System. Patients with joint dysfunction who continue to experience significant symptoms despite an appropriate course of non-operative management are eligible. Patients will be considered enrolled into the study when an ICF has been signed, all inclusion criteria are met and no exclusion criteria are present including intraoperative exclusion criteria, and the patient is randomized into either the SMR Stemless Reverse (investigational) group, the SMR Reverse Shoulder System (control) group or is part of the roll-in population. Enrollment is expected to take approximately 24 months. Read Less

This trial studies the genetic and behavioral factors that may contribute to the development of specific cancers and how these factors may affect the outcome of the disease in patients with a history of cancer and their relatives. Read Less
