Hypofractionated Proton Therapy for Benign Intracranial Brain Tumors, the HiPPI Study
Recruiting
This phase II trial studies how well hypofractionated proton or photon radiation therapy works in treating patients with brain tumors. Hypofractionated radiation therapy delivers higher doses of radiation therapy over a shorter period of time and may kill more tumor cells. A shorter duration of radiation treatment may avoid some of the delayed side effects of radiation while providing a more convenient treatment and reducing costs.

Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation in Chemotherapy Induced Peripheral Neuropathy in Patients With Stage I-III Early Stage Breast Cancer
Recruiting
This phase II trial examines transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) in patients with stage I-III breast cancer with chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy. TENS is a procedure in which mild electric currents are applied to some areas of the skin to potentially improve neuropathy. This trial may help determine if TENS is feasible and effective for the treatment of peripheral neuropathy symptoms while on chemotherapy.

DECIDE: Dyads and Families
Recruiting
The purpose of this study is to design and test a decision-making program that is tailored to support adult daughters making healthcare decisions for their parents who are living with memory loss to improve the quality of life of African American families. There are two phases of this research study. The first phase will collect information by surveys and/or interviews. The surveys and interviews will ask questions about demographics (e.g., age, race/ethnicity), culture, health, family dynamics... Read More

Trikafta for Patients With Non-cystic Fibrosis Bronchiectasis
Recruiting
Study participants with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis will be given Trikafta for four weeks. The researchers will monitor clinical endpoints, quality of life, and weight. Additionally, cutaneous punch biopsy material will be collected from each participant to test cellular response to Trikafta.

Oral Anti Diabetic Agents in the Hospital
Recruiting
This randomized controlled clinical trial will assess whether continuation of home oral antidiabetic agents during hospitalization can be used as a safe and effective alternative to insulin therapy in the management of diabetes in the hospital. The primary outcome of the study is to determine differences in glycemic control as measured by mean daily blood glucose concentration between oral antidiabetic medications and basal bolus therapy in hospitalized patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D).

Immunologic Responses to a Live Attenuated Oral Cholera Vaccine
Recruiting
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the antibody response to the cholera vaccine, Vaxchora®, in healthy subjects. Investigators also seek to evaluate additional markers of the adaptive immune response including plasmablasts, activated B cells, memory B cells, and T cell responses in healthy subjects receiving cholera vaccine, produce monoclonal antibodies against cholera, and evaluate the safety and reactogenicity in healthy subjects receiving cholera vaccine.

Natural History Study of and Genetic Modifiers in Spinocerebellar Ataxias
Recruiting
Spinocerebellar ataxias (SCA) are genetic neurological diseases that cause imbalance, poor coordination, and speech difficulties. There are different kinds of SCA and this study will focus on types 1, 2,3, and 6 (SCA 1, SCA 2, SCA 3 , also known as Machado-Joseph disease and SCA 6). The diseases are rare, slowly progressive, cause increasingly severe neurological difficulties and are variable across and within genotypes. The purpose of this research study is to bring together a group of experts... Read More
