Imaging Post-Stroke Recovery: Using MEG to Evaluate Cognition
Recruiting
This is a study using magnetoencephalography (MEG) to look at recovery in those with minor stroke. The investigators know that these individuals report difficulties in attention, concentration, multi-tasking, energy level, and processing speed that appear to be independent of lesion size or location. The underlying pathophysiology is unclear; however, anecdotally, many individuals are significantly improved by 6 months post-stroke. One hypothesis is that a single lesion, regardless of size, may... Read More

Study of Orally Administered AG-120 in Subjects With Advanced Hematologic Malignancies With an IDH1 Mutation
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

C-Raven, a Virtual Tobacco Cessation Intervention in the Community
Recruiting
In low-income housing units in Baltimore, the investigators propose to conduct a pilot two-arm hybrid type 1 effectiveness-implementation RCT comparing a) an avatar-delivered computerized intervention (CI) for tobacco cessation augmented with CHW support and navigation to lung cancer screening to b) a waitlist control. With a sample of participants from public housing units (N=30), the investigators will collect data on feasibility of recruitment, intervention engagement and completion, and sho... Read More
