Boston, MA Paid Clinical Trials

In this research study we want to learn more about the use of indocyanine green (ICG) during bone or soft tissue mass resections. Indocyanine green (ICG) is a type of dye that is used in medical diagnostics. We want to determine if ICG-guided tumor resection is more effective in obtaining negative margins. Lastly, we want to assess traditional oncologic outcomes of local recurrence, time to metastatic disease, and overall and disease specific survival. Read Less

The main goals of this clinical study are to learn if AMT-260 is safe and tolerable and works to reduce the frequency of seizures in adults with unilateral mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE). Read Less

SMaHRT (Stroke Motor reHabiliation and Recovery sTudy) is a longitudinal study aimed at understanding the natural history of upper extremity motor recovery after ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke. Read Less

This study is an open-label, single ascending dose clinical trial in participants who have ABCA4-related retinopathies. This is the first-in-human clinical trial in which ACDN-01 will be evaluated for safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy following a single subretinal injection of ACDN-01. Read Less

Disorders of consciousness (DoC) caused by severe brain injury affect millions of people worldwide each year. A patient's level of consciousness in the intensive care unit (ICU) significantly impacts the recovery from disability and is a primary determinant of family decisions about withdrawal of life-sustaining therapy (WLST). However, reliable assessment of consciousness in the ICU remains elusive. Transcranial magnetic stimulation-electroencephalography (TMS-EEG) is a tool that has shown the best performance in detecting signs of consciousness in patients with chronic DoC. The goals of this prospective, observational study are to demonstrate the diagnostic performance and prognostic utility of TMS-EEG in the ICU setting. Read Less

This is a three-part study evaluating the safety and efficacy of a PSMA-directed radioantibody (rosopatamab tetraxetan, conjugated to either In-111 or Ac-225). Part 1 will consist of one administration of In-111-rosopatamab tetraxetan to characterize the biodistribution of the radioantibody to target organs and prostate cancer lesions. Participants then will be enrolled into either Part 2 (Dose Optimization) or Part 3 (Dose Escalation and Expansion) depending on their prior treatment history. Participants qualifying for Part 2 will be randomized to receive Ac-225 rosopatamab tetraxetan in a single fractionated cycle (dose administration on Day 1 and Day 15) at either 45 or 60 kBq/Kg. Participants qualifying for Part 3 must have received prior Lu-177-PSMA-radioligand therapy and will receive Ac-225 rosopatamab tetraxetan in a single fractionated cycle at 45, 55, or 60 kBq/Kg. Dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) will be monitored in Part 3 to determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D), and the study may enroll additional participants to be treated with the RP2D dose level. Participants enrolled into any part will attend study visits which will include blood samples, electrocardiogram (ECG), radiographic imaging, and physical examinations along with other assessments.

The US opioid overdose epidemic has been accompanied by an increase in human immunodeficiency (HIV) among persons who inject drugs. HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is an FDA approved medication taken daily orally by individuals who are HIV negative, but who are at increased risk for HIV. In order to obtain PrEP, a prescription is needed. Before being prescribed HIV PrEP, it is recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to obtain an HIV test first. Although home HIV self-test kits are recommended by the CDC and are locally available, uptake remains low. CHORUS+ (Comprehensive HIV, Hepatitis C, and Opioid Use Disorder Response to the Unaddressed Syndemic +) is a theory-based, peer-delivered, mobile phone-supported intervention focused on enhancing uptake and adherence to HIV PrEP (primary outcome), and continuation of MOUD (secondary outcome) among persons who inject opioids. At recruitment, the intervention will include HIV self-testing, rapid initiation of PrEP and MOUD, and 6-month peer recovery coaching (PRC) to support adherence to these medications. This research study seeks to determine the efficacy of a novel intervention to increase the uptake of evidence-based measures to prevent HIV and treat opioid use disorder. The efficacy of this multi-site, two-arm randomized control trial of CHORUS+ and usual care \[passive referral\]. This study is not testing the efficacy of PrEP or HIV home testing which is already known. In addition the investigators will determine the influence of HIV self-testing on PrEP uptake and adherence. In the CHORUS+/ intervention arm, there will be a baseline in-person session with the participant to encourage uptake of PrEP and MOUD using motivational interviewing (MI). Read Less

The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of the combination of lasofoxifene and abemaciclib compared to fulvestrant and abemaciclib for the treatment of pre- and postmenopausal women and men who have previously received ribociclib or palbociclib-based treatment and have locally advanced or metastatic estrogen receptor positive (ER+)/human epidermal growth factor 2 negative (HER2-) breast cancer with an estrogen receptor 1 (ESR1) mutation. The main question the study aims to answer is: • To compare the efficacy of the combination of lasofoxifene and abemaciclib with that of fulvestrant and abemaciclib Participants will receive either receive 5 mg/d of oral lasofoxifene plus oral abemaciclib 150 mg twice a day or the combination of fulvestrant 500 mg intramuscular (IM) on Days 1, 15, and 29 and then once monthly thereafter plus oral abemaciclib 150 mg twice a day.
