BEAD-T1D: Building the Evidence to Address Disengagement in Type 1 Diabetes
Recruiting
Youth with public insurance underutilize diabetes care, particularly diabetes technology which is associated with improvement in diabetes-specific outcomes. Thus, we urgently need studies to understand and increase diabetes technology utilization. This proposed research will (1) improve representation of youth in the literature, (2) address the gap in knowledge of barriers and promoters in youth, and (3) identify and address factors associated with diabetes technology uptake and utilization.

An Efficacy and Safety Study of Basimglurant (NOE-101) in Patients With Trigeminal Neuralgia.
Recruiting
Trigeminal neuralgia (TN), also called "tic douloureux", is the most common form of craniofacial neuropathic pain and is considered the cause of one of the most painful afflictions known in medical practice. This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 1.5mg - 3.5mg basimglurant in adults with TN.

Conditioning SCID Infants Diagnosed Early
Recruiting
The investigators want to study if lower doses of chemotherapy will help babies with SCID to achieve good immunity with less short and long-term risks of complications after transplantation. This trial identifies babies with types of immune deficiencies that are most likely to succeed with this approach and offers them transplant early in life before they get severe infections or later if their infections are under control. It includes only patients receiving unrelated or mismatched related dono... Read More

Testing the Addition of an Individualized Vaccine to Durvalumab and Tremelimumab and Chemotherapy in Patients With Metastatic Triple Negative Breast Cancer
Recruiting
This phase II trial studies how well nab-paclitaxel, durvalumab, and tremelimumab with or without personalized synthetic long peptide vaccine (neoantigen vaccine) works in treating patients with triple negative breast cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Chemotherapy drugs, such as nab-paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopp... Read More

Diagnosing Obstructive Sleep Apnea Using Electromyography of the Muscles of the Mouth
Recruiting
The investigators will establish how well a novel, quick, and painless way of measuring muscle activity from the mouth and throat works for detecting sleep apnea. This technology is called transmembraneous electromyography (tmEMG). Leveraging two technologies, a new probe capable of recording muscle activity by lightly touching the muscle, as well as a machine learning model for signal interpretation, the investigators will conduct an initial observational feasibility study in phase 1, followed...

A Phase 1b Study of the NLRP3 Inhibitor VENT-02 in Patients With Mild to Moderate Parkinson's Disease
Recruiting
This trial is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 1b study evaluating the safety/tolerability, PK, and pharmacodynamics of VENT 02, administered orally at 1 dose level twice daily (BID) over 28 days in patients with mild to moderate Parkinson's disease. The study includes a screening period, a 28-day double-blind treatment period, and a 7-day follow-up period after last dose. Approximately 30 patients will be randomized into 1 of the 2 treatment arms.

A Study to Investigate the Efficacy and Safety of Subcutaneous Lunsekimig (SAR443765) Compared With Placebo in Adult Participants With Moderate-to-severe Atopic Dermatitis
Recruiting
This is a parallel, Phase 2b, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study to assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of lunsekimig monotherapy in adult participants (aged 18 to 80 years, inclusive) with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD). This study explores the efficacy and safety of 3 subcutaneous (SC) dose regimens of lunsekimig in adult participants with moderate-to-severe AD who have a documented history, within 6 months prior to baseline, of an inadequate...

A Trial to Improve Family Clinical Note Access and Outcomes for Hospitalized Children
Recruiting
This study will test if giving parents access to their child's medical notes on a bedside tablet: * helps them get more involved in their care * helps identify safety concerns Parents of hospitalized children will be randomly assigned to either use the Bedside Notes tool or follow usual care. To see if this approach improves care and safety, researchers will measure: * note access * parent-reported safety concerns * overall experiences

Naltrexone for Overdose Prevention
Recruiting
The goal of this clinical trial is to see if an injectable medicine called naltrexone can prevent fentanyl overdose deaths in people who use other drugs (cocaine, methamphetamine). The main questions it aims to answer are: What are the challenges for implementing naltrexone as an overdose prevention strategy? Are injections of naltrexone effective for opioid overdose prevention among people who use stimulants? How often are people who use stimulants and do not intentionally use opioids uninte... Read More

TNBC Gut Microbiota During Neoadjuvant Treatment
Recruiting
The gut microbiome is made up of the microbes (such as bacteria, viruses, and other organisms too small to see with the naked eye) that live in the digestive tract and has been shown to be important in metabolizing food, extracting vitamins and nutrients from food, and maintaining a healthy gut lining. The gut microbiome plays an important role in overall health and has been shown to dynamically change in response to early-stage triple-negative breast cancer-directed therapies, which in turn has...
