Pembrolizumab vs. Observation in People With Triple-negative Breast Cancer Who Had a Pathologic Complete Response After Chemotherapy Plus Pembrolizumab
Recruiting
The phase III trial compares the effect of pembrolizumab to observation for the treatment of patients with early-stage triple-negative breast cancer who achieved a pathologic complete response after preoperative chemotherapy in combination with pembrolizumab. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. This trial may help researchers determine if observa... Read More

Retrieval-Based Word Learning in Autistic Children
Recruiting
Children on the autism spectrum sometimes have difficulty learning new words and using the newly taught information in different situations. In this study, the investigators are testing whether strategies that have been found to improve word learning in non-autistic children will also help autistic children. Specifically, the investigators aim to test whether autistic children learn words more successfully if novel words are taught by repeating the words to the child (re-study) or if the novel w...

Modulating Energy Density in Time-Restricted Eating
Recruiting
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to test the effect of time-restricted eating (14-hour fast, 10-hour eating window) of a low-energy dense diet (reduced calories per gram of food) in older adults with obesity and insulin resistance. The study aims to determine if modulating the energy density of the diet reduces: 1. Insulin resistance and 2. Body weight. Researchers will compare the groups: 1. Following time-restricted eating and given a diet reduced in energy density or 2. Foll... Read More
