Evaluation of Dosing Procedures of Chemotherapy Treatment (Carboplatin) With the Contrast Agent Iohexol
Recruiting
This trial studies how well iohexol works in helping doctors calculate the dose of carboplatin given to patients with cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Understanding how to best calculate the dose of carboplatin given to patients with cancer may help doctors learn how to improve the use of carboplatin in the future.

A Study to Compare Two Surgical Procedures in Individuals With BRCA1 Mutations to Assess Reduced Risk of Ovarian Cancer
Recruiting
This clinical trial evaluates how well two surgical procedures (bilateral salpingectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy) work in reducing the risk of ovarian cancer for individuals with BRCA1 mutations. Bilateral salpingectomy involves the surgical removal of fallopian tubes, and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy involves the surgical removal of both the fallopian tubes and ovaries. This study may help doctors determine if the two surgical procedures are nearly the same for ovarian cancer risk... Read More

Perioperative Anticoagulant Use for Surgery Evaluation -2 (PAUSE-2) Study Patients Receiving a Direct Oral Anticoagulant (DOACs-Dabigatran, Rivaroxaban, Apixaban or Edoxaban) and Needing Elective High-Bleed-Risk Surgery or an Invasive Procedure
Recruiting
PAUSE 2 study is a prospective, open-label, blinded-endpoint non-inferiority RCT of PAUSE vs. ASRA management in DOAC treated high risk patients with AF/VTE who need elective high bleed risk surgery/procedure and/or any procedure involving neuraxial anesthesia. The purpose of the PAUSE 2 study is to show that PAUSE management will be as safe (i.e., non-inferior) as ASRA management, with 95% of patients having low/undetectable pre-operative DOAC levels \<30 ng/mL in each group., at the time of su...

Impact of Bromocriptine on Clinical Outcomes for Peripartum Cardiomyopathy
Recruiting
The study will enroll 200 women newly diagnosed with peripartum cardiomyopathy within 5 months postpartum in a randomized placebo controlled trial of bromocriptine therapy to evaluate its impact on myocardial recovery and clinical outcomes. Given that bromocriptine prevents breastfeeding, an additional 50 women with peripartum cardiomyopathy excluded from the trial due to a desire to continue breastfeeding but meeting all other entry criteria will be followed in an observational cohort.
