Surgical Resection of Synchronous Pulmonary or Hepatic Oligometastatic Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma
Recruiting
Surgical Resection of Synchronous Pulmonary or Hepatic Oligometastatic Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PHOLIPANC). This is an interventional, open-label, non-randomised, single-arm phase II clinical trial. Eligible patients with hepatic or pulmonary oligometastatic adenocarcinoma of the pancreas must have received neoadjuvant FOLFIRINOX chemotherapy in cycles of 14 days, or other clinically indicated alternative. FOLFIRINOX is not a study treatment.

Modifying Adiposity Through Behavioral Strategies to Improve COVID-19 Rehabilitation
Recruiting
The research in this VA Merit will examine the effects of obesity and Post-COVID Conditions (PCC) on physical functioning, health-related quality of life, and adipose tissue inflammatory and cellular senescence profiles in older Veterans. Further, it will evaluate whether a weight loss intervention, including dietary modification and exercise, in obese Veterans with and without PCC will reduce systemic and adipose tissue inflammation and senescence and promote PCC recovery.

Medication Adherence in Patients With Sarcoidosis
Recruiting
The goal of the study is to look at the relationship between how individuals with Sarcoidosis take the sarcoidosis medicines and how it affects the disease, to evaluate any factors that may make individuals not want to take the medicines, and to develop and refine ways to help support individuals with Sarcoidosis especially when it comes to the medicines. The overall hypothesis is higher medication adherence will be associated with better clinical outcomes in sarcoidosis. The investigators will... Read More

Chemosensory Dysfunction and Recovery in Endoscopic Endonasal Skull Base Surgery
Recruiting
The investigators hypothesize that patients undergoing endoscopic endonasal skull base surgery experience clinically meaningful and modifiable disruptions in postoperative chemosensory function and quality of life, and the investigators further hypothesize that olfactory training in the postoperative period may significantly hasten normalization of patients' chemosensory perturbations. This tailored prospective study seeks to fulfill a significant gap in the understanding of the characteristics,... Read More

Hands and Hearts Together
Recruiting
Growing evidence demonstrates that secure attachment in childhood predicts children's healthy social, biological, and behavioral functioning, whereas insecure attachment predicts behavior problems and physiological dysregulation; thus, efforts to foster secure attachment are crucial for promoting the healthy development of children and families. This proposal describes a randomized controlled trial (RCT) of an innovative intervention program that can be widely implemented designed to foster chil... Read More

Cognitive Outcomes After Brain Substructure-informed Radiation Planning in Pediatric Patients
Recruiting
The goal of this trial is to determine whether it is possible to minimize radiation dose to parts of the brain that are important for thinking and learning in children who require radiation to treat their tumor, and if this will help reduce neurocognitive (thinking and learning) impairments in these patients. Patients with newly diagnosed brain or head and neck tumors who are having radiation therapy will have neurocognitive testing and MRI imaging (both research and for regular care) done as p...

Proton Radiation Therapy Registry
Recruiting
The Johns Hopkins Proton Therapy center is establishing a registry to capture the full 3D radiation dosimetry delivered to the patient, baseline clinical data, and disease, toxicity and quality of life outcomes.
