A Randomized Crossover Trial of Bright Light Therapy in Crohn's Disease on Intestinal Barrier Homeostasis
NCT05579392
Recruiting
Crohn's Disease (CD) and Ulcerative Colitis (UC), collectively known as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), are two of the most significant chronic conditions of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) and affects over 1.5 million individuals in the U.S. Recently, there has been an increased understanding of the importance of sleep and sleep disruption in IBD as a potentially modifiable risk factor. We, therefore, hypothesize that intervening with morning bright light therapy (BLT) in IBD patients with C... Read More

Technology Enabled Strategies to Promote Treatment Adherence in Liver Transplant
NCT05260268
Recruiting
Liver transplantation is increasingly performed for older adults with multiple comorbidities. Medication adherence is key to maintaining proper function of the transplanted liver and optimize health; however, adhering to post-transplant treatment is complex. This trial will study how available technology combined with transplant center resources and caregiver support can optimize medication adherence, quality of life, and health outcomes among new liver transplant recipients at 3 centers.

Mycophenolate Mofetil in Combination With Standard of Care for the Treatment of Glioblastoma
NCT05236036
Recruiting
This phase I/Ib trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of mycophenolate mofetil in combination with temozolomide and/or radiation therapy (standard of care) in treating patients with glioblastoma. Mycophenolate mofetil is an immunosuppressant drug that is typically used to prevent organ rejection in transplant recipients. However, mycophenolate mofetil may also help chemotherapy with temozolomide work better by making tumor cells more sensitive to the drug. The purpose of this trial... Read More

A Comparison of Outcomes After ACL or ACL+Meniscus Surgery Using Semiconductor Fabric Products
NCT06979804
Recruiting
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the effect of semiconductor sleeves on the treatment of ACL or ACL+Meniscus arthroscopic surgery. The effect of the sleeves will be analyzed through patient reported and clinically measured outcomes. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Do the semiconductor sleeves improve the functional outcomes compared to the placebo? * Will patients experience improved functional outcomes in a shorter period of time compared to the placebo?

The Dragon PLC Trial (DRAGON-PLC)
NCT06914648
Recruiting
The goal of the DRAGON PLC clinical trial is to determine whether portal vein embolization (PVE) combined with hepatic vein embolization (HVE) improves resectability and overall survival in patients with initially unresectable primary liver cancer compared to standard PVE alone. This trial specifically focuses on patients with hepatocellular carcinoma and cholangiocarcinoma. The main questions this trial aims to answer are whether combined PVE and HVE increases the proportion of patients who be... Read More

Olfactory Cleft Obstruction and Electrophysiological Field Potentials Predict Olfactory Restoration by Dupilumab in CRSwNP Patients.
NCT06892704
Recruiting
The goal of this observational study is to learn what can predict the return of the sense of smell in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps being treated with dupilumab. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does obstruction of the olfactory cleft predict return of the sense of smell? 2. Do electrophysiological signals generated by breathing and sniffing behavior predict return of the sense of smell? Participants starting dupilumab will undergo assessment for their degr... Read More

Adding the Immunotherapy Drug Cemiplimab to Usual Treatment for People With Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Who Had Previous Treatment With Platinum Chemotherapy and Immunotherapy (An Expanded Lung-MAP Treatment Trial)
NCT06616584
Recruiting
This phase II/III Expanded Lung-MAP treatment trial compares the effect of adding cemiplimab to docetaxel and ramucirumab versus docetaxel and ramucirumab alone in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer that is stage IV or that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). Cemiplimab is a monoclonal antibody that stimulates the immune system by blocking the PD-1 pathway. Tumors use the PD-1 pathway to escape attacks from the immune system. By blocking the PD-1 pathway, cemi... Read More
