Safety and Efficacy of Allogeneic HPV-specific T Cells in Adults With Recurrent or Metastatic HPV16+ Cancers
Recruiting
In this study, haploidentical relatives of a patient with recurrent or metastatic HPV 16-associated malignancy will be vaccinated with a therapeutic human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine series to generate HPV-specific leukocytes. The cancer patient with recurrent or metastatic HPV16+ cancer will then be randomized to one of two arms: 1) non-myeloablative allogeneic bone marrow transplant or 2) cluster of differentiation 8 (CD8)-depleted donor lymphocyte infusion.

Incremental Hemodialysis: The TwoPlus Trial
Recruiting
This study is to prospectively compare clinical effectiveness between clinically- matched incremental hemodialysis and conventional hemodialysis in patients with incident kidney dysfunction requiring dialysis and residual kidney function. The study will enroll 350 patients on chronic hemodialysis and 140 caregivers of enrolled patients. Patients will be randomized in 1:1 ratio to either incremental start hemodialysis or conventional hemodialysis. Caregivers will be followed along with patients... Read More

Hybrid Robot+FES Stroke Rehabilitation
Recruiting
The investigators have developed a novel robot-guided stretching under intelligent control and combine it with active movement training, which helped increase joint ROM, reduce spasticity and joint stiffness, increase muscle force output, and improve locomotion. However, for stroke survivors with sensorimotor impairment, their peripheral muscle may not sufficiently be recruited. Functional electrical stimulation (FES), has been shown its advantage to activate the peripheral muscles for people wi... Read More

Symptomatic Carotid Outcomes Registry
Recruiting
The purpose of this study is to build upon trials done over 30 years ago, which did not include statins, new antiplatelet agents, and newer antihypertensive medications. Since the landmark trials (NASCET, ECST), there have been new developments in medical stroke prevention, which creates a gap in knowledge. The aim of this study is to evaluate that clinical care with Intensive Medical Therapy (IMT) alone, the one year stroke rate in patients with symptomatic carotid stenosis and low risk clinica...

CD40 Agonist, Flt3 Ligand, and Chemotherapy in HER2 Negative Breast Cancer
Recruiting
This research study is being done to find out if the immunotherapy drugs called CDX-301 and CDX-1140 in combination with the standard chemotherapy treatment pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD, Doxil) are safe and effective at controlling the cancer in patients with metastatic triple Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2) negative breast cancer, and to determine a safe dose and treatment schedule of the three drugs. This research study will also test how your immune system responds to... Read More
