Boston, MA Paid Clinical Trials

This study will test the safety of ruxolitinib, given at one dose that does not change, and duvelisib, given at different doses, to find out what effects, if any, the study treatment has on people with relapsed or refractory NK-cell or T-cell lymphoma. This study has three parts: dose escalation (Part 1), dose expansion (Part 2), and TFH/T-PLL cohort expansion (Part 3). Read Less

Objective: Wearable technology holds promising potential for mental health monitoring and detection. Samsung has developed an algorithm that they believe can detect signs of depression and anxiety in smartwatch users. They have used this algorithm to create a "Mindfulness Index," which is an easily understood visual index of mental health. The primary aim of the study is to evaluate the performance of Samsung's Mindfulness Index in identifying those who have received a diagnosis of Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) from a clinician-administered semi-structured diagnostic interview. Research Procedures: The target sample size is 135 individuals diagnosed with current Major Depressive Disorder and 85 healthy controls. To meet this target, the recruitment target is set at 220 participants. Participants will be assigned to the MDD condition, or the healthy control condition based on their score on the Beck Depression Inventory. Each subject will be followed for 3 months. Participants will be provided with a Samsung smartphone and Samsung smartwatch. Participants will be asked to wear the smartwatch 24 hours per day, except while charging. This smartwatch will collect data on heartrate, sleep time, and step count. During the study, each day participants will receive texts prompting a link to a "daily diary." These surveys will ask about depression and anxiety symptoms. Additionally, during the first 3 weeks of the study, participants will participate in ecological momentary assessment; texts will be sent 5 times per day prompting participants to fill out a survey about how they currently feel in that moment. These extra surveys will stop after the first 3 weeks of the study, but the daily diary surveys will continue throughout the study. Furthermore, virtual clinician visits will occur at weeks 4, 8, and 12. Read Less

The goal of this study is to treat patients with NOTCH active advanced adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) tumors with a combination or two different oral medications to slow tumor growth and improve survival outcomes. The names of the study drugs involved in this study are: * CB-103 (an oral NOTCH pathway inhibitor) * Abemaciclib (CDK4/6 inhibitor) * Lenvatinib (a vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI)) Read Less

The main purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of HRO761 and identify the recommended dose(s), i.e., the optimal safe and active dose of HRO761 alone or in combination with pembrolizumab or irinotecan that can be given to patients who have cancers with specific molecular alterations called MSIhi (Microsatellite Instability-high) or dMMR (Mismatch Repair Deficient) that might work best to treat these specific cancer types and to understand how well HRO761 is able to treat those cancers.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Arlocabtagene Autoleucel (BMS-986393) in participants with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. Read Less

Approximately 150 patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) associated with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF) will be randomized at up to 40 sites. Patients will be randomly assigned to either Auxora or matching placebo. Study drug infusions will occur every 24 hours for five consecutive days for a total of five infusions. Read Less

A dose range-finding study to assess the efficacy and safety of multiple dose levels of AZD8630 administered via a dry powder inhaler in adults with uncontrolled asthma at risk of exacerbations, receiving medium -to -high dose inhaled corticosteroid (ICS)/long-acting β2-agonist (LABA). Read Less

This is a Phase 2b study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of IMVT-1402 in adults with CIDP. Read Less

This research study is studying a combination of HER2-directed therapies (trastuzumab and pertuzumab) and hormonal therapy as a treatment after surgery for hormone receptor positive breast cancer. The study drugs involved in this study are: * A combination of trastuzumab and pertuzumab given as an injection under the skin (PHESGO) * Hormonal (endocrine) Treatment Read Less

The purpose of this pilot feasibility study is to evaluate the effects of a smartphone-based mindfulness intervention (MBI) on pain-related outcomes in individuals with fibromyalgia. This 8-week randomized controlled trial will compare an MBI app group to a control group who completes assessments only through the app. The MBI intervention includes weekly video content focused on mindfulness practice and psychoeducation, combined with daily symptom tracking through the app. Participants in both groups will complete self-report measures at baseline, post-intervention, and follow-ups at 3 and 6 months. The study will enroll up to 100 participants from Brigham and Women's Hospital and the greater Boston area. This pilot study is designed to assess feasibility and explore preliminary effects on outcomes such as pain interference, fibromyalgia symptoms, pain catastrophizing, sleep disturbance, emotional distress, mindfulness, and pain acceptance. Results will be used to inform the design of a future fully powered randomized trial. Read Less
