A Biomechanical Evaluation of the Ossur Power Knee in Persons With Transfemoral Amputation
NCT06218238
Recruiting
Microprocessor-controlled knees (MPKs) do not typically utilize motors to power joint rotation, but they automatically adjust resistance or damping in the joint to improve swing- and/or stance-phase control as appropriate for the prosthesis user during gait. The Ossur Power Knee is the only commercially-available MPK that uses a motor to provide active power generation during walking and other activities. The purpose of this proposed investigation is to perform and compare biomechanical evaluati... Read More

TAK-243 in Treating Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia or Myelodysplastic Syndromes With Increased Blasts
NCT03816319
Recruiting
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of TAK-243 in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndromes with increased blasts that has come back (relapsed) or that is not responding to treatment (refractory).
