MammaPrint, BluePrint, and Full-genome Data Linked With Clinical Data to Evaluate New Gene EXpression Profiles
NCT03053193
Recruiting
The FLEX Registry will be implemented to operate as a large-scale, population based, prospective registry. All patients with stage I to III breast cancer who receive MammaPrint® and BluePrint testing on a primary breast tumor are eligible for entry into the FLEX Registry, which is intended to enable additional study arms at low incremental effort and cost. FLEX Registry will utilize an adaptive design, where additional targeted substudies and arms can be added after the initial study is opened.

RGX-314 Gene Therapy Administered in the Suprachoroidal Space for Participants With Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration (nAMD) (AAVIATE)
NCT04514653
Recruiting
RGX-314 is being developed as a potential novel one-time gene therapy treatment for the treatment of neovascular (wet) age related macular degeneration (wet AMD). Wet AMD is characterized by loss of vision due to new, leaky blood vessel formation in the retina. Wet AMD is a significant cause of vision loss in the United States, Europe and Japan, with up to 2 million people living with wet AMD in these geographies alone. Current anti-VEGF therapies have significantly changed the landscape for tre... Read More

REACH (Restore Energy, Activity Can Help) Lupus Study
NCT06479213
Recruiting
The goal of this clinical trial is to pilot test the REACH peer coaching program for fatigue in people with systemic lupus erythematosus. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Is the REACH program feasible and acceptable to participants? 2. What is the impact of the REACH program on fatigue? Researchers will compare the REACH peer coaching program to the REACH mobile health application to see if the REACH program works to reduce fatigue. Participants will: * Use the REACH mobile healt...

SHARON: A Clinical Trial for Metastatic Cancer With a BRCA or PALB2 Mutation Using Chemotherapy and Patients' Own Stem Cells
NCT04150042
Recruiting
The clinical trial is a phase 1, single-arm trial that will evaluate the safety of the investigational treatment on metastatic cancer in patients who have a deleterious or suspected deleterious BRCA1, BRCA2, or PALB2 genetic alteration. The investigational treatment will involve 2 cycles of a combination of intravenous melphalan, BCNU, low-dose I.V. ethanol, vitamin B12b, and vitamin C in association with autologous hematopoietic stem cell infusion. A dose-escalation schedule will be employed fo... Read More
