Alpha-Defensin and Synovial Proteins to Improve Detection of Pediatric Septic Arthritis
NCT03704766
Recruiting
Differentiating between septic arthritis and other causes of joint inflammation in pediatric patients is challenging and of the utmost importance because septic arthritis requires surgical debridement as part of the treatment regimen. The current gold standard to diagnose septic arthritis in children is a positive synovial fluid culture; however, joint cultures may take several days to return. If a bacterial infection is present, it requires immediate surgical intervention in order to prevent la... Read More

Comparing Combinations of Targeted Drugs for Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer That Has EGFR and MET Gene Changes (A Lung-MAP Treatment Trial)
NCT05642572
Recruiting
This phase II Lung-MAP treatment trial test the combination of targeted drugs (capmatinib, osimertinib, and/or ramucirumab) in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced) and that has EGFR and MET gene changes. Capmatinib and osimertinib are in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. They work by blocking the action of the abnormal protein that signals cancer cel... Read More

Natural Progesterone for the Treatment of Recurrent Glioblastoma
NCT05091866
Recruiting
This early phase I trial identifies the best dose, possible benefits and/or side effects of natural progesterone in treating patients with glioblastoma that has come back (recurrent). Progesterone is a type of hormone made by the body that plays a role in the menstrual cycle and pregnancy. Progesterone may help control tumor growth and spread in patients with glioblastoma.

Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis in Children
NCT04181138
Recruiting
Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a rare liver disease that damages the liver's bile ducts. Bile ducts are tiny tubes that carry bile from the liver to the small intestine. Bile is a liquid produced by the liver that helps us absorb and use the nutrients in the food we eat. In people with PSC, the bile backs up into the liver and will damage it, causing scarring of the liver. The purposes of this study are to: * Collect medical and other data to learn more about PSC, how it progresses, a... Read More

Molecular and Cellular Characterization of Cardiac Tissue in Postnatal Development
NCT00243776
Recruiting
The study team will use small pieces of human hearts which are removed as part of a required surgical procedure to study different objectives. One of the objective is how calcium ions pass through the membrane of heart cells in order to tell the heart cell how much force to contract with when the heart beats. Investigators will also study the proteins and RNA of these pieces to determine how the newborn heart cells control their force of contraction differently from adult heart cells. Investigat...
