The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of Tranexamic Acid Oral Solution 5% in patients treated with direct oral anticoagulants or vitamin K antagonists and undergoing a single or multiple tooth extraction. Read Less

The purpose of the registry/repository is to provide a mechanism to store data and specimens to support the conduct of future research about Wilson disease (WD). The overall aim is to determine the optimal testing for diagnosis and parameters for monitoring treatment of WD that will aid product utilization and development. Read Less

The overarching aim of the proposed work is to align a promising treatment lead - Musical Intervention (MI) - with a promising mechanistic account of psychosis - Predictive Processing. This protocol focuses on the R33 phase, to optimize its administration (Is active participation more effective than passive listening? Does creation of new music help more than performing others' creations?). By tracking the interrelation between symptom mechanisms and MI, the investigators can use those metrics to prospectively assign patients to particular MI. The R33 phase will examine the impact of SING on computational behavioral metrics of (Aim 1) Conditioned Hallucinations, (Aim 2) Social Reinforcement Learning, (Aim 3) Language Use, in 200 participants with voice hearing in the context of a psychotic illness (n=50per per group). Following a screening visit to determine eligibility, these computerized tasks will be administered behaviorally, and an interview will elicit speech, prior to and following the full SING intervention (in 10 groups of 5 participants, each facilitated by a trained musical interventionist, during the first two years of the project). Participants will complete these tasks prior to and following randomization to four different conditions (facilitated by a SING team member) that will deconstruct the possible active ingredients of SING along two dimensions: Activity and Ownership: (a) SING (n=50, Activity + and Ownership +), participants produce and perform their own song; (b) Karaoke (n=50, Activity + and Ownership -), participants perform karaoke, singing along to others music; (c) Pop Music (n=50, Activity - and Ownership -), participants will listen to popular music chosen by the music interventionists; and (d) Curated Playlists (n=50, Activity -, Ownership +), participants will curate playlists of popular music and listen to them together. This deconstruction will provide insights into the predictive processing framework, as applied to hallucinations and music, specifically, whether changes at higher, a-modal, hierarchical levels, particularly sense of self and active inference, influence precision weighted perceptual and social inferences more so than inactive experiences or experiences that do not engage sense of self. This R33 portion of the study was originally included in NCT05537428, which now has results posted for the R61 phase of the study. Read Less

A Phase 1b Multiple Ascending Dose Study of the Safety and Tolerability of BMS-984923 in Healthy Older Adults and Patients with Alzheimer's Disease Read Less

Multi-center, prospective, concurrently controlled, non-randomized, double-blind (patient and assessor). Treatment of large chondral lesions in the knee with microfracture plus the Chondro-Gide® ACC is non-inferior to treatment of small chondral lesions treated with microfracture alone. Read Less

The goal of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of Dostarlimab compared to Placebo in adult participants with HNSCC (Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma) Read Less

This is a multicenter, randomized, placebo controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ABX464 given at 25 or 50 mg QD in inducing clinical remission in subjects with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis who have inadequate response, no response, a loss of response, or an intolerance to either conventional therapies \[corticosteroids, immunosuppressant (i.e. azathioprine, 6-mercaptopurine, methotrexate)\] and/or advanced therapies \[biologics (TNF inhibitors, anti-integrins, anti-IL-23), and/or S1P receptor modulators, and/or JAK inhibitors\].

The purpose of this study is to understand the role of GLP-1 in the pathogenesis of T2D in youth and explore their potential salutary effects and ability to delay the progressive loss of ß-cell function and reduce hepatic steatosis in youth with prediabetes/new onset T2D and NAFLD. Read Less

Central Asia (CA) represents the most rapidly growing HIV epidemic region worldwide, concentrated in people who inject drugs (PWID) and their sexual partners, and scaling up opioid agonist therapies (OAT) in this region is the most cost-effective strategy to prevent new HIV infections, and more effective when combined with antiretroviral therapy (ART). The investigators propose to use the Network for the Improvement of Addiction Treatment (NIATx) implementation strategy to scale-up OAT in three diverse Central Asian countries (Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan) and guided by the Exploration-Planning-Implementation-Sustainment (EPIS) framework. Understanding the trajectories of implementation and scale-up in this context may emerge through creating communities of practice, especially when cohesion and competence evolves, and may guide other healthcare delivery challenges in the region (e.g., HIV, TB); as well as build important regional expertise and understanding implementation trajectories should help support OAT program sustainability.

The purpose of this prospective cohort study is to assess clinical and quality of life measures as well as to define the severity of adverse effects for the use of the RefleXion system to deliver intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT), stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT), or SCINTIX Biology-guided radiotherapy (BgRT) in standard of care (SOC) use in the treatment of local,loco-regionally advanced, and oligometastatic malignancies. In addition, patient costs and charges will be analyzed to quantify the health economic impact of this modality. Workflow and quality of radiotherapy planning including a collection of dosimetric data will also be analyzed. Read Less

Auditory hallucinations are among the most distressing aspects of psychotic illness, and between 10 and 30% of people with hallucinations do not respond to antipsychotic medications. The authors have used computational modeling of behavior to link brain activity to development of auditory hallucinations in the hope of guiding new treatment development. The proposed studies take the first step toward individualized treatment approaches to hallucinations by attempting causal, pharmacological manipulation of relevant model parameters underlying these phenomena.

The research team is investigating Opioid Use Disorder (OUD), a disorder characterized by dysregulated dopaminergic tone, to evaluate the mechanisms of adjunctive treatment with calcitriol. The investigators will recruit 12 subjects with OUD and 12 healthy subjects to participate in a double-blind, randomized study design where subjects will complete up to 2 Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scans using \[11C\]-PHNO. The investigators will compare subjects in differences between their own study days and in differences between healthy control subjects and subjects with OUD. Read Less
