MR-Guided Focused Ultrasound in the Treatment of Focal Epilepsy (EP001)
Recruiting
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility, safety, and initial effectiveness of Exablate thermal ablation of a focal epileptic target area in the brain of patients suffering from medication-refractory epilepsy, using the Exablate transcranial system to produce multiple sonications targeted in the focus of interest. The investigators will establish the feasibility and collect data to establish the basic safety of this type of treatment as the basis for later studies that will evalu... Read More

Developing Hyperpolarized 129Xe MRI Biomarkers for Evaluation of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
Recruiting
In this study, hyperpolarized 129Xe MRI will be used to evaluate treatment efficacy in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Participants will be imaged at 4 timepoints (baseline, 6 weeks post-therapy initiation, 12 weeks, and 18 weeks). Images will be analyzed to develop new biomarkers and to understand treatment effects.

Quantitative Pulmonary Imaging Registry & Biorepository
Recruiting
The goal of this project is to establish a registry and biorepository of images and biological samples from subjects undergoing novel pulmonary imaging methods to be used for future research aimed toward identifying clinical applications of imaging methods and toward understanding the physiological significance of imaging biomarkers. This registry and biorepository will accelerate the development of these imaging techniques and may lead toward future clinical adoption of quantitative pulmonary i... Read More

HIFT for People With Mobility-Related Disabilities
Recruiting
Investigators will examine the feasibility and health outcomes following a high-intensity functional training intervention for people with mobility-related disabilities. In addition to participant recruitment, attritions rates, and satisfaction, investigators will assess changes to both physical health outcomes (e.g., strength, body composition) and psychosocial outcomes (e.g., quality of life). The findings will provide evidence for the efficacy of HIFT to improve various health outcomes for a... Read More

Safety and Immunogenicity of an Intranasal RSV Vaccine Expressing SARS-CoV-2 Spike Protein (COVID-19 Vaccine) in Adults
Recruiting
This study evaluates an investigational vaccine that is designed to protect humans against infection with SARS-CoV-2, the novel coronavirus causing COVID-19 disease. The investigational vaccine, MV-014-212, is a live attenuated vaccine against respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) that is expressing the spike (S) protein of SARS-CoV-2. MV-014-212 is administered as drops or a spray in the nose. Specifically, this study analyzes the safety of, and the immune response to, the vaccine when administered... Read More

Study of Belantamab Mafodotin Plus Standard of Care (SoC) in Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma
Recruiting
This study will evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and clinical activity of belantamab mafodotin in combination with Velcade (bortezomib), Revlimid (lenalidomide), dexamethasone (VRd) and will determine recommended phase 3 dose (RP3D) in adult participants with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM). Participants will receive the combination of bortezomib, lenalidomide and dexamethasone (VRd) on a 3-week cycle until cycle 8, followed by the combination of lenalidomide and d... Read More

Mitigating the Pro-inflammatory Phenotype of Obesity
Recruiting
The purpose of this study is to examine the hypothesize that 4 weeks of sympathetic nerve activity (SNA) inhibition (oral clonidine) will cause a significant reduction in circulating blood concentrations and endothelial cell expression of inflammatory markers (e.g., TNF-α, IL-6). Our study is a prospective study using a randomized, double-blinded design to test 4 weeks of SNA blockade (oral clonidine) compared with a BP-lowering control condition (diuretic, hydrochlorothiazide) or a placebo.
