Mechanisms and Predictors of Change in App-Based Mindfulness Training for Adolescents
NCT04697966
Recruiting
A growing body of research implicates rumination as being a transdiagnostic risk factor involved in the development of depression and anxiety in youth. Critically, mindfulness meditation has shown significant promise in targeting rumination, and ultimately improving depressive and anxiety symptoms. Mindfulness apps offer a convenient and cost-effective means for accessing mindfulness training, while being interactive and engaging for youth. Despite their growing popularity among teens, strikingl... Read More

A Study to Evaluate the Effect of Venetoclax on Participants Receiving a Covalent Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor (cBTKi) for First-line Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (1L CLL) to Achieve Deep Durable Remissions to Allow Off-treatment Period.
NCT06524375
Recruiting
The main purpose of the study is to evaluate if adding venetoclax to participants receiving cBTKi for the 1L CLL can achieve deep durable remissions of undetectable measurable residual disease \[uMRD \< or 10\^-4 in peripheral blood (PB)\] by end of combination treatment (EOCT) to allow off-treatment period. The acronym BRAVE stands for Btki Responders to Achieve deep remission (or off-treatment periods) with VEnetoclax.
