Non Exudative AMD Imaged With SS-OCT- Extension
Recruiting
The investigators wish to better understand the role of the choriocapillaris (CC) in the formation and progression of non-exudative in age related macular degeneration (armd) by imaging the retinal pigment epithelium (rpe) and the choroidal microvasculature and by studying their inter-dependence to determine if the loss of the CC could prove useful as an anatomic clinical trial endpoint in future drug trials.

External Pharyngeal Exerciser for Dysphagia
Recruiting
Pharyngeal muscle weakness and dysphagia is common in individuals post-stroke or with Parkinson's disease and in individuals with head/neck cancer who have undergone surgery and/or radiation therapy. Therapeutic options for these patients are limited. This pilot study is intended to assess the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of the External Pharyngeal Exerciser (EPE) on patients with pharyngeal dysphagia receiving swallow therapy. Feasibility will be assessed by patient acceptance and practice... Read More

Innovative Liver Elasticity, Attenuation, and Dispersion Ultrasound Study
Recruiting
The objective of this study is: (1) to investigate the correlation of ultrasound parameters (SW speed, Dispersion slope, Attenuation value, Normalized Local Variance, Liver / Kidney Intensity Ratio) with the pathological parameters (fibrosis, intralobular inflammation, ballooning degeneration and steatosis); (2) to evaluate the diagnostic performance of SW speed for liver fibrosis, Dispersion slope for intralobular inflammation and Attenuation value for steatosis by comparison with the tissue di...

Study of TBX-3400 in Subjects With Solid Malignant Tumors Resistant or Refractory to Standard Therapies
Recruiting
This is a study of treatment with TBX-3400 in subjects with solid malignant tumors that are resistant or refractory to standard therapies. The subject's own blood cells are exposed to a protein that has been shown in the laboratory to result in anti-tumor activity. The study hypothesis is that TBX-3400 cells will enhance anti-tumor activity and improve the body's immune response to the tumor.

A Tissue Collection Study in Patients Who Respond to Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors to Identify Targets of Tumor-Reactive T Cells.
Recruiting
T Cell Receptor-engineered T-cell therapy (TCR T-cell therapy) offers a potentially transformative approach to treating cancer, but is currently limited by the lack of known targets (Maus and June, 2016; Ping et al., 2018). Arguably the most clinically meaningful way to discover new targets and TCRs for TCR T-cell therapy is to study the tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes of patients that are actively responding to immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy. These T cells are clonally expanded as a r... Read More

Prediction of Outcomes After Surgery for Unruptured Intracranial Aneurysms
Recruiting
Accurate preoperative identification of patients at high risk for adverse outcomes would be clinically advantageous, as it would allow enhanced resource preparation, better surgical decision-making, enhanced patient education and informed consent, and potentially even modification of certain modifiable risk factors. The aim of the Prediction of adverse events after microsurgery for intracranial unruptured aneurysms (PRAEMIUM) study is therefore to develop and externally validate a clinically app... Read More

Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation in Women With Overactive Bladder With Urgency Incontinence
Recruiting
Overactive bladder (OAB) affects an estimated 16-30% of women in the US and urgency urinary incontinence (UUI) affects 7-11% of women with OAB. It is known that repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) over the supplementary motor area (SMA) can modulate the pelvic floor muscle activity with potential benefits for various urologic conditions. The goal of this study is to assess feasibility of rTMS as a treatment option for OAB with UUI by determining which rTMS frequency is most effec... Read More

The EndRAD Trial: Eliminating Total Body Irradiation (TBI) for NGS-MRD Negative Children, Adolescents, and Young Adults With B-ALL
Recruiting
This study will evaluate the use of non- TBI (total body irradiation) conditioning for B-ALL patients with low risk of relapse as defined by absence of NGS-MRD (next generation sequencing minimal residual disease) before receiving a hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT). Patients diagnosed with B-ALL who are candidates for HCT will be screened by NGS-MRD on a test of bone marrow done before the HCT. Subjects who are pre-HCT NGS-MRD negative will be eligible to receive a non-TBI conditioning regime... Read More
