Boston, MA Paid Clinical Trials

The purpose of this study is to find out whether the study drug, LY3537982, is safe and effective in cancer patients who have a specific genetic mutation (KRAS G12C). Patients must have already received or were not able to tolerate the standard of care, except for specific groups who have not had cancer treatment. The study will last up to approximately 4 years.

The overarching goal of the proposed research is to prepare the clinical pharmacist intervention for sustainable implementation and dissemination. Because the effectiveness of the intervention has already been demonstrated in a NIH Stage Model IV trial, the investigators propose an Effectiveness-Implementation Type 3 Hybrid design, in which the primary focus is on testing different implementation methods, while secondarily observing clinical effects. The investigators' overarching hypothesis is to identify the most impactful elements of a behavioral theory-informed recruitment approach, which can be replicable across clinical settings. Accordingly, the investigators propose to perform testing of a behaviorally-informed recruitment approaches in a community-based setting. Like the previous Tele-Pharmacy Intervention to Improve Treatment Adherence (STIC2IT) trial (NCT02512276), participants will be English or Spanish speaking adults ≥18 years of age identified through the electronic health record (EHR) as having poor disease control and/or poor medication adherence for diabetes. The primary care physicians of eligible patients identified through the EHR will be contacted to opt-out any patients they wish not to be included. Patients will then be randomized to each of the following conditions, such that there will be 8 total arms: (1) inclusion of a mailer primer (yes/no), (2) the most successful recruitment letter from the preliminary study using prospect theory (versus the control letter), and (3) intensity of the intervention outreach (4 calls vs. 2 calls). The investigators plan to enroll 584 participants who meet the inclusion criteria, with 73 patients per each of the 8 study arms. Patients across all arms who agree to be scheduled will receive an appointment with one of the clinical pharmacists within the established BMC pharmacist program. The primary outcome will be completion of a clinical pharmacist appointment within 8 weeks after randomization. Key secondary outcomes will include scheduled visit rates, no-show rates for scheduled appointments, medication adherence over the 3-month follow-up, and clinical outcomes, including HbA1c levels measured using EHR data in the 3 months after randomization. The medication adherence and clinical outcomes will be used for the Aim 2 evaluation. Read Less

The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and activity of VAX014 for intratumoral injections (VAX014) in patients with advanced solid tumors. VAX014 is a targeted oncolytic agent designed to kill tumor cells following intratumoral injection into advanced solid tumors. Read Less

This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects and best dose of peposertib (M3814) in combination with tuvusertib (M1774) in treating patients with solid tumors that have spread to other places in the body (advanced). Peposertib and tuvusertib stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Read Less

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether home-based transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is safe and practical for people aged 40 to 70 years with Parkinson's Disease. The study aims to find out if participants can use the tDCS device at home without serious side effects and whether it is easy for them to use on their own. Participants will first attend an in-person visit to learn how to use the tDCS device. They will then use the device at home once a day for 20 minutes over seven consecutive days. Video calls on days 2 and 3 will provide support and supervision. After each session, participants will complete brief online questionnaires about any side effects and how easy the device was to use. The study will also check if using tDCS at home improves motor symptoms in Parkinson's Disease by using a standard movement assessment. Read Less

The study proposes to complete the development of and then establish the safety, efficacy, and clinical risk/benefit of a novel hospital incubator pad with stochastic vibrotactile stimulation (SVS) that will provide a complementary treatment and the first improvement in the clinical management of apnea of prematurity (AOP) in over 20 years. Currently, the only approved therapy for AOP is Caffeine Citrate. The SVS mattress pad can prove to be an effective, non-invasive adjunct to Caffeine Citrate for preterm infants with potential to shorten the need for respiratory support as well as overall shortened length of stay.

The study will evaluate the efficacy of NBI-1065845 compared with placebo as an adjunctive treatment in participants with MDD on improving symptoms of depression. Read Less

This is a dose-escalation and dose-expansion Phase 1/2a trial to evaluate the safety and tolerability of DB-1310 in subjects with advanced solid tumors. Read Less

This research study is studying the drugs called NeoVax (a new type of personalized neoantigen vaccine) in combination with CDX-301 and Nivolumab or Pembrolizumab as a possible treatment for melanoma. The names of the study drugs involved in this study are: * Personalized Neoantigen peptides (which combined with poly-ICLC make the vaccine NeoVax) * Poly-ICLC (Hiltonol) * CDX-301 * Nivolumab (Opdivo) * Pembrolizumab (Keytruda) Read Less

The purpose of this study is to examine the usefulness of implanting small 24-K gold fiducial markers around a bladder tumor site, so that a Radiation Oncologist can identify the original tumor location at the time of radiation treatment. Other goals of the study include assessing whether a new MRI imaging technology can help with detection of bladder cancer earlier and more accurately when evidence of bladder cancer is not visible by scope.

The goal of this clinical trial is to study the safety and tolerability in all advanced solid tumors, including advanced urothelial carcinoma. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: * Is FX-909 safe and tolerable * What is the right dose level for patients Participants will be asked to take FX-909 daily , in tablet form and record any outcomes from taking the drug. Participants will also be asked to return for multiple site visits for various blood tests and to collect blood and tumor samples as well as have regular CT/MRI scans Read Less
