Differing Levels of Hypoglycemia
NCT02445781
Recruiting
Hypoglycemia can produce a spectrum of pro-inflammatory and pro-atherothrombotic changes. To date no studies appear to have investigated the effects of differing levels of hypoglycemia on the vasculature and pro-atherothrombotic balance during hypoglycemia in healthy man. The specific aim of our study will be to determine the effects of differing levels of hypoglycemia on in-vivo vascular biologic mechanisms in a healthy population.

Study of Orally Administered AG-120 in Subjects With Advanced Hematologic Malignancies With an IDH1 Mutation
NCT02074839
Recruiting
The purpose of this Phase I, multicenter study is to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and clinical activity of AG-120 in advanced hematologic malignancies that harbor an IDH1 mutation. The first portion of the study is a dose escalation phase where cohorts of patients will receive ascending oral doses of AG-120 to determine maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or the recommended Phase II dose. The second portion of the study is a dose expansion phase where four cohorts of pati... Read More

Itacitinib With High-dose Posttransplantation Cyclophosphamide in Older Patients
NCT05823571
Recruiting
This research is being done to learn whether drug called itacitinib, which is a novel inflammation- and immune-lowering drug (immunosuppressant), can be given before and after non-myeloablative peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (PBSCT; also known as a 'mini' transplant) to help prevent certain complications such as cytokine release syndrome (CRS) for patients with blood cancers, using peripheral blood from a relative. The investigators will also examine if by using itacitinib the invest... Read More

Pilot Testing the Check Up
NCT04624074
Recruiting
We propose to pilot test an adapted version of the Teen Marijuana Check Up (TMCU) for persistent cannabis users with first episode psychosis (FEP) in Coordinated Specialty Care (CSC). The adapted version of the TMCU will include tailoring to risks of persistent cannabis use in FEP, providing education on lower risk cannabis use, and adding a session to address collaborative planning to maintain CSC engagement and antipsychotic adherence and to reduce harm associated with cannabis use.

Liver Transplantation in Patients With CirrHosis and Severe Acute-on-Chronic Liver Failure: iNdications and outComEs
NCT04613921
Recruiting
Management of ACLF is mainly supportive. The poor outcomes lead physicians to consider liver transplantation as an option, even if controversial. In sicker recipients, LT results in immediate survival, but poor medium-term survival rates in some studies. The scarcity of deceased donors obliges to maximize LT success. Alternative strategies, as living-donor LT, should be explored. LDLT has impressive results in Eastern centers, but it is restrained in Western countries, due to potential life-thre... Read More

Examining the Role of the Orexin System in Sleep and Stress in Persons With Opioid Use Disorder
NCT04287062
Recruiting
This study is designed to elucidate the role of the orexin neurotransmitter system in sleep disturbance and circadian rhythms of stress that might in turn influence relapse behaviors in persons on medication-assisted treatments (MAT) who are in early recovery from opioid use disorder (OUD). Briefly, the study will enroll recently abstinent OUD patients (N=200) maintained on either extended-release naltrexone (XR-NTX), buprenorphine, or methadone. Within each MAT group, participants will be rando... Read More

Cobimetinib in Refractory Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis (LCH), and Other Histiocytic Disorders
NCT04079179
Recruiting
This is a research study of a drug called cobimetinib in children and adults diagnosed with Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH), and other histiocytic disorders that has returned or does not respond to treatment. Cobimetinib blocks activation of a protein called Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MEK) that is part of incorrect growth signals in histiocytosis cells. Four different groups of patients will be enrolled.

Artificial Intelligence-based Video Analysis to Detect Infantile Spasms
NCT06315829
Recruiting
Infantile spasms are a type of seizure linked to developmental issues. Unfortunately, they are often misdiagnosed, causing delays in treatment. The purpose of this study is to develop a computer program that can reliably differentiate infantile spasms from similar, yet benign movements in videos. This computer program will learn from videos taken by parents of study participants. Quickly recognizing and treating infantile spasms is crucial for ensuring the best developmental outcomes.
