This is a pilot, single blind, randomized, sham-controlled trial to assess the benefit of PTNS in treating OAB symptoms in MS patients. The data generated by this study would provide support for a future multi-institutional, randomized prospective trial. Read Less

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group trial with an open-label extension to evaluate the efficacy of growth hormone (GH) on cognitive functions of retired professional football players with growth hormone deficiency (GHD). Read Less

In the United States, 14% of all adults report a speech, language, voice, and/or hearing disability (collectively known as communication disabilities, CD). Patients with CD, experience inequities in receipt of and access to high-quality healthcare services, including primary care. Poor patient-provider communication is a significant contributor to these disparities. When healthcare providers use evidence-based communication strategies, patients with CD have improved communication outcomes and satisfaction. Unfortunately, providers rarely use the strategies in practice. The objective of this study is to compare the effectiveness and implementation of two interventions to increase primary care providers' use of communication strategies, improving the quality of their communication with patients with CD. Using a stepped-wedge study design and guided by the RE-AIM framework, we will compare a healthcare team-directed intervention (training) to a healthcare team-directed intervention + patient-directed intervention (patient-prompt list). In the healthcare team-directed intervention, the team will receive training on evidence-based communication strategies for patients with CD. In the patient-directed intervention, patients with CD will complete a "patient prompt" list that elicits strategies that they prefer the healthcare team to use during their visit. The primary aim of the study is to compare the effectiveness of the interventions on patient-reported experience in primary care practices across 4 healthcare systems using a stepped-wedge randomized controlled trial. Hypothesis 1: Patients with CD will report a higher quality of health, more positive experience, and greater self-efficacy when they use the patient-directed tool (intervention A+B) as compared to patients with CD in the healthcare team education-only phase (intervention A). Hypothesis 2. Providers will use more patient-centered communication and strategies with the patient-directed intervention. The second aim is to examine the adoption, implementation, and short-term sustainability of the interventions. Read Less

The objective of this prospective, multi-centre study is to evaluate the performance of ADXBLADDER, a urine MCM5 ELISA test, as an aid in the detection of bladder cancer recurrence. Patients undergoing cystoscopic surveillance in non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) follow-up will be recruited and asked to provide a urine sample to be tested with ADXBLADDER. To assess the diagnostic accuracy of the test, the MCM5 results will be compared with the gold standard cystoscopy and pathology of resected tissue. Read Less

This is a Phase 1 open-label, multicenter study of ZN-c3 monotherapy which consists of Dose Escalation, a Food Effect Cohort, and Dose Expansion. Read Less

The current standard of care for rectal cancer has diminished local recurrence and enhanced survival. Quality of life, however, remains poor for many patients and the probability of distant recurrence is high. In this study, we will attempt to reduce the distant recurrence rate and improve quality of life by making changes in the timing and administration of chemotherapy and radiation and doing less invasive rectal surgery when indicated.

Despite strong consensus that early, specialized intervention for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) can have a dramatic impact on outcomes, the public health system's capacity to provide such services is severely challenged by the rapid rise in ASD prevalence. The goal of this research project is to increase timely and equitable access to ASD-specialized early intervention during the critical first three years of life by capitalizing on the existing infrastructure of the Part C Early Intervention (EI) system, which is publicly funded and available in all U.S. States. This project will train EI providers to use an evidence-based, inexpensive, parent-mediated intervention that can improve child and family outcomes as well as mitigate the long-term substantial economic costs associated with ASD.

This study is testing a way to diagnose endometriosis using a uterine tissue biopsy (similar to a pap smear) as opposed to undergoing laparoscopy surgery. The tissue is sent to lab for cellular analysis with a proprietary AI (artificial intelligence) technology. Read Less

The study will assess the performance of the combined system, i.e., the use of the EsoGuard assay (lab developed test) on cells collected using the EsoCheck (501k cleared device) to detect Barrett's Esophagus (BE), with or without dysplasia, and esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) as compared to Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) plus biopsies in both confirmed cases of BE/EAC and in controls (subjects without a prior diagnosis but undergoing screening for BE/EAC) Read Less

Consecutive patients with Irritable Bowel Syndrome with Constipation (IBS-C) will be recruited from the outpatient clinics of the University of Michigan Health System. Eligible patients will be asked to participate in a study that will test the efficacy the PEG 3350 + a diet low in fermentable oligo, di, monosaccharides, and polyols (FODMAP) vs. PEG 3350 plus sham diet. Blinding dietary advice trials is challenging and therefore the sham diet was based on the criteria set forth by Staudacher et al. which emphasizes that the diet must give the impression that is the true intervention diet with similar restrictions, modifications, and time intensity without impacting the intake of essential nutrients, fiber, and FODMAPs. An example of the sham diet's carbohydrates includes: apples, bananas, and pears, and wheat. Oranges, raspberries, strawberries and rice would not be allowed. Additionally, the physicians analyzing the data will be blinded as to which group the patients were randomized. Read Less

The STI-6129-001 study is a three-stage, multicenter, open-label, dose-finding, phase 1b/2a trial. It is designed primarily to identify the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of STI-6129 by assessing the safety, preliminary efficacy and pharmacokinetics of this anti-CD38-Duostatin 5.2 antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) for the treatment of relapsed or refractory systemic AL amyloidosis. The patients that will be treated with STI-6129 in this trial are relapsed or refractory systemic AL amyloidosis patients who have received prior lines of treatment. Read Less
