Working Memory and Physical Exercise Training in Patients with Mild Cognitive Impairment
Recruiting
The prevalence of dementia will double in the next three decades in the U.S.; effective treatment or prevention for dementia is urgently needed. The current exploratory project aims to evaluate and understand how the brain and cognition may improve after a 12-week intervention that combines brain training and aerobic exercise training to improve brain function, both in those with mild cognitive impairment (some with possible prodromal Alzheimer's disease) and with healthy aging. Findings from th... Read More

Evaluating Long-term Use of a Pediatric Robotic Exoskeleton (P.REX/Agilik) to Improve Gait in Children With Movement Disorders
Recruiting
Background: People with cerebral palsy, spina bifida, muscular dystrophy, or spinal cord injury often have muscle weakness and problems controlling how their legs move. This can affect how they walk. The NIH has designed a robotic device (exoskeleton) that can be worn on the legs while walking. The wearable robot offers a new form of gait training. Objective: To learn whether a robotic device worn on the legs can improve walking ability in those with a gait disorder. Eligibility: People age... Read More

Study in Patients With Breast Cancer Leptomeningeal Metastasis
Recruiting
Traditional clinical trials in patients with breast cancer leptomeningeal disease (LMD) are challenging as patients often have a rapidly progressive course and prognosis is poor, making meeting standard eligibility difficult. Furthermore, there is limited information about the biology of LMD. The investigators thus propose a study that is as inclusive as possible, which will allow the investigators to collect biospecimens and clinical outcomes to learn more about LMD biology, but still potential...

Partners in Children's Health (CSN): a Randomized Trial of an Attachment Based Intervention
Recruiting
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the impacts of an attachment-based intervention (Attachment Biobehavioral Catch-Up (ABC) and Home Book-of-the-Week (HBOW) program on emerging health outcomes (i.e., common childhood illnesses, body mass index, and sleep) in low-income Latino children (N=260; 9 months at enrollment). It is hypothesized that children randomized to ABC will have better health outcomes in comparison to the HBOW control group.

GammaPod Dose Escalation Radiation for Early Stage Breast Cancer
Recruiting
The GammaPod machine was made by Xcision Medical Systems and is already FDA cleared to deliver focused radiation within the breast. Unlike current radiation machines, the GammaPod was designed specifically for treating breast cancer. The GammaPod can pinpoint radiation to the tumor bed in the breast which lowers the amount of radiation to nearby tissues. The machine uses a breast cup system to hold the breast in place for the treatment. This breast cup system was tested at MSGCCC (Marlene Stewar... Read More
