The goal of this clinical trial is to validate performance claims for method comparison for the ABL90 FLEX PLUS for pH, pCO2, pO2, cCa2+, cCl-, cK+, cNa+, cGlu, cLac, ctHb, sO2, FO2Hb, FMetHb, FCOHb and FHHb in heparinized whole blood in a Point of Care (POC) setting. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety of the skin balancing gel cream and examine the effects it has on the skin microbiome of individuals with non-cystic acne prone skin. Read Less

This is a pilot study using \[18F\]F AraG PET imaging to evaluate the immunological response to checkpoint inhibitor therapy (CkIT) in patients with advanced NSCLC tumors at multiple study sites. The main objectives of the study are to quantify the change in \[18F\]F AraG PET signal before and after CkIT therapy, and to correlate this change in \[18F\]F AraG PET signal with a radiographic response.

In a true experiment, roughly 300 volunteer participants will smoke active cannabis, a corresponding placebo, or no substance at all (control). Next, participants will complete a drive test and then be observed by actual California Highway Patrol (CHP) officers who will attempt to classify participants as impaired or unimpaired. CHP Officers will evaluate participants in the context of driving (i.e., while following participants in an actual patrol car), as part of a roadside behavioral assessment (i.e., the Advanced Roadside Impaired Driving Enforcement, or ARIDE, battery, which includes Standardized Field Sobriety Tests, or SFSTs), and as part of a Drug Recognition Expert (DRE) evaluation conducted indoors.

The purpose of this research study is to determine the efficacy and outcome of the UCRI (an in-vitro diagnostics device in the form of a blood test and an algorithm) as a tool to detect mucosal healing (level of inflammation in the colon) in people with moderate-to-severe ulcerative colitis treated with anti-TNFα. Another reason is to explore additional biomarkers in blood, stool or voice to detect disease activity and/or mucosal healing. A tool to detect the level of inflammation in the colon based on blood, stool or voice biomarkers may reduce the need or the number of invasive endoscopic procedures. This is an observational study and no treatment decision nor clinical intervention will be done based on results during this study and all collected data will be used only for the goal of the study and for obtaining FDA IDE for a follow-up study.

This phase I clinical trial tests the immune effects of fermented wheat germ in patients with advanced solid tumor cancers who are being treated with standard of care checkpoint inhibitors. Fermented wheat germ is a nutritional supplement that some claim is a "dietary food for special medical purposes for cancer patients" to support them in treatment. There have also been claims that fermented wheat germ is "clinically proven" and "recognized by medical experts" to "enhance oncological treatment" and boost immune response to cancer; however, there are currently no documented therapeutic effects of fermented wheat germ as a nutritional supplement. Checkpoint inhibitors, given as part of standard of care for advanced solid tumors, are a type of immunotherapy that may help the body's immune system attack the cancer and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. The information gained from this trial may allow researchers to determine if there is any value of giving fermented wheat germ with standard of care checkpoint inhibitors for patients with advanced solid tumor malignancies.

This phase Ib/II trial finds the best dose of selinexor and its effect with pembrolizumab in treating patients with urothelial carcinoma that are not eligible to receive the chemotherapy drug cisplatin, or have been given cisplatin and the cancer has gotten worse. Patients must also have urothelial carcinoma that has spread locally, near where it started (locally advanced), or has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic). Selinexor may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking a protein, called XPO1, that is needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving selinexor and pembrolizumab may kill more tumor cells. Read Less

The objective of the registry is to evaluate the continued safety and performance of the Arthrex foot and ankle products including the ProStop implant for hyperpronated foot, Bio-Compression Screw for reconstruction surgeries of the foot, TRIM-IT Drill Pin, TRIM-IT Spin Pin for fixation of fractures and fusion (bunionectomy osteotomies) of the foot/ankle, Headless Compression Screws and Compression FT Screws for fixation of small bone fragments of the foot/ankle and DynaNite® Nitinol Staple to be used for fixation such as Lisfranc arthrodesis, mono or bi-cortical osteotomies in the forefoot, first metatarsophalangeal arthrodesis, Akin osteotomy, midfoot and hindfoot arthrodeses or osteotomies, fixation of osteotomies for hallux valgus treatment (Scarf and Chevron), and arthrodesis of the metatarsocuneiform joint to reposition and stabilize metatarsus primus varus and Beveled Headed FT Screws for osteotomy fixation of Hallux valgus repair (such as Scarf and Chevron etc.) Read Less

This is a 1:1 randomized double blinded placebo controlled trial. • To determine if ashwagandha can improve cognitive dysfunction when compared with placebo in patients undergoing chemotherapy for cancer. Read Less

This phase II trial evaluates whether loncastuximab tesirine and rituximab followed by dose-adjusted doxorubicin, etoposide, vincristine, cyclophosphamide, and prednisone works to treat patients with high risk diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Loncastuximab tesirine is a monoclonal antibody called loncastuximab, linked to a drug called tesirine. It is a form of targeted therapy because it attaches to specific molecules (receptors) on the surface of cancer cells, known as CD19 receptors, and delivers tesirine to kill them. Rituximab is a monoclonal antibody. It binds to a protein called CD20, which is found on B cells (a type of white blood cell) and some types of cancer cells. This may help the immune system kill cancer cells. Chemotherapy drugs such as doxorubicin, vincristine, and cyclophosphamide work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Etoposide is in a class of medications known as podophyllotoxin derivatives. It blocks a certain enzyme needed for cell division and DNA repair and may kill cancer cells. Prednisone is in a class of medications called corticosteroids. It is used to reduce inflammation and lower the body's immune response to help lessen the side effects of chemotherapy drugs. Giving loncastuximab tesirine and rituximab in combination with dose-adjusted doxorubicin, etoposide, vincristine, cyclophosphamide, and prednisone may be more effective at treating high risk diffuse large B-cell lymphoma patients than standard treatments.
