Accelerated Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) for Smoking Cessation in People Living With HIV/AIDS (PLWHA)
Recruiting
To demonstrate whether four sessions of TBS improves attentional bias and craving in PLWHA smokers compared to four sessions of sham stimulation. We hypothesize 4 sessions of TBS to the left DLPFC will significantly improve attentional bias and craving for smoking cues compared to neutral cues in a population of subjects who are smokers with HIV/AIDS compared to sham stimulation.

NM Balance Regulation With ULLS and Loss of Sleep
Recruiting
The goal of this trial is to learn about how restricted sleep and not bearing weight on the leg affects muscle strength and posture control. Participants will walk exclusively on one leg, sleep at differing intervals, and complete posture tests, muscle strength tests, and muscle imaging. Researchers will compare adequate sleep and restricted sleep to see if muscle strength and posture are affected.

Neurobehavioral Mechanisms of Choice in Opioid Use Disorder
Recruiting
The objective of this protocol is to use probabilistic reinforcement learning choice tasks and magnetic resonance neuroimaging to demonstrate the impact of problematic opioid use and opioid withdrawal on dynamic decision-making and reveal the neurobehavioral and neurobiological processes underlying abnormal task performance. A second objective is to identify an appropriate dose of intravenous remifentanil for subsequent studies in physically dependent individuals with opioid use disorder.

Testing the Addition of the Chemotherapy Drug Lomustine (Gleostine®) to the Usual Treatment (Temozolomide and Radiation Therapy) for Newly Diagnosed MGMT Methylated Glioblastoma
Recruiting
This phase III trial compares the effect of adding lomustine to temozolomide and radiation therapy versus temozolomide and radiation therapy alone in shrinking or stabilizing newly diagnosed MGMT methylated glioblastoma. Chemotherapy drugs, such as lomustine and temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Radiation therapy uses high energy photons to kill tumor cells and s... Read More

A Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Preliminary Efficacy of RLS-0071 in Newborns With Moderate or Severe Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy Undergoing Therapeutic Hypothermia
Recruiting
Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) affects approximately 4,000 to 12,000 persons annually in the United States. Mortality from HIE has been reported up to 60%, with at least 25% of survivors left with significant neurocognitive disability. Despite this vital unmet medical need, no pharmacological adjunct or alternative therapy has proven beneficial in improving outcomes in neonatal HIE. RLS-0071 is a novel peptide being developed for the treatment of neonatal HIE. This study is designed to e... Read More
