The GAstric Precancerous Conditions Study
Recruiting
Gastric cancer afflicts 27,000 Americans annually and carries a dismal prognosis. One reason for poor outcomes is late diagnosis, as the majority of gastric cancers in the United States are diagnosed at a relatively advanced stage where curative resection is unlikely. Gastric precursors (such as atrophic gastritis and intestinal metaplasia) are precancerous changes to the stomach mucosa which increases risk for subsequent gastric cancer. The Gastric Precancerous Conditions Study (GAPS) is an ob... Read More

Characteristics of Patients With Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa
Recruiting
Recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB) is a disease caused by genetic mutations in the gene for type VII collagen. Patients with RDEB develop large, severely painful blisters and open wounds from minor trauma to their skin. We are screening subjects with RDEB to evaluate characteristics of the subjects and their cells in order to develop new strategies of therapy and determine whether subjects could be candidates for treatment studies.

Efficacy of Targeted Medical Therapy in Angina and Nonobstructive Coronary Arteries
Recruiting
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if targeted medical therapy will improve symptoms and quality of life in patients with angina and non-obstructive coronary arteries compared to placebo, after the underlying cause of the chest pain has been ascertained by coronary function testing. Participants will be treated with either medications that target the underlying cause of their chest pain or placebo for 4 weeks after a drug titration phase of 1-3 weeks. They will be asked to complete a s... Read More

Individualized Neuroimaging Biomarkers for Predicting RTMS Response in OCD
Recruiting
The goal of this clinical trial is to discover brain-based subtypes of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and examine treatment response to two different repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) targets in the brain: the medial prefrontal cortex (MPFC) and the right prefrontal cortex (rPFC).

Machine Learning in Atrial Fibrillation
Recruiting
Atrial fibrillation is a serious public health issue that affects over 5 million Americans (Miyazaka, Circulation 2006) in whom it may cause skipped beats, dizziness, stroke and even death. Therapy for AF is currently suboptimal, in part because AF represents several disease states of which few have been delineated or used to successfully guide management. This study seeks to clarify this delineation of AF types using machine learning (ML).

The Dynamics of Human Atrial Fibrillation
Recruiting
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is an enormous public health problem in the United States, affecting 2-5 million Americans and causing rapid heart beats, stroke, heart failure or death. In this project, the applicant will develop a novel framework to better understand human AF that builds on agreement between several concepts for the disease. The applicant will develop strategies to identify AF patients who will best respond to each of several therapies, to guide personalized therapy.

Evaluation of RBS2418 in Subjects With Advanced, Metastatic Solid Tumors
Recruiting
RBS2418 (investigational product) is a specific immune modulator, working through ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase I (ENPP1), designed to lead to anti-tumor immunity by increasing endogenous 2'-3'-cyclic guanosine monophosphate-adenosine monophosphate (cGAMP) and adenosine triphosphate (ATP levels) and reducing adenosine production in the tumors. RBS2418 has the potential to be an important therapeutic option for subjects both as monotherapy and in combination with checkpoint blo... Read More

AN/BN Risk Factors Study
Recruiting
Across the United States, thousands of children and adolescents suffer from eating disorders. Among young women alone, an estimated 2 to 4 percent are dealing with anorexia nervosa. Anorexia nervosa also has the highest mortality rate of any psychiatric disorder and produces a six-fold increased risk for death. Unfortunately, study shows that current treatments are only successful with 25 percent of patients and no eating disorder prevention program has been found to reduce future onset of anore...
