Minneapolis, MN Paid Clinical Trials

This trial studies health outcomes after treatment in patients with retinoblastoma. Gathering health information over time from patients and family members through vision assessments, samples of tissue and saliva, and questionnaires may help doctors learn more about what causes retinoblastoma, identify long-term health outcomes for patients with retinoblastoma, and find out which therapies may be the best for treating retinoblastoma Read Less

Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a neurogenetic disorder caused by a loss or mutation in the survival motor neuron 1 gene (SMN1) on chromosome 5q13, which leads to reduced SMN protein levels and a selective dysfunction of motor neurons. SMA is an autosomal recessive, early childhood disease with an incidence of 1:10,000 live births. SMA is the leading cause of infant mortality due to genetic diseases. Until recently, the mainstay of treatment for these patients was supportive medical care. However, advances in medical treatment focusing on gene replacement, gene enhancement, motor neuron protection and muscle enhancement is likely to change the management and prognosis of these patients in the future. The purpose of this registry is to assess the long term outcomes of patients with SMA in the context of advances in treatment options. Read Less

A group of clinicians and researchers developed an 8-session group intervention that integrates education, support, self-reflection, and action-expectation to help people reaffirm or reconstruct self-grounded purpose after significant life events/transitions. The 8 sessions extend over 2-3 months, with 7 weekly sessions and the final session 1 month after Session 7. The intervention, called the Compass Course is structured around the 6 dimensions of flourishing (autonomy, self-acceptance, personal growth, relationships, purpose in life, external mastery), the goal of which is to help people enact behaviors that move them forward in reframing a sense of self and reaffirming or reconstructing a sense of purpose in their daily lives. Participating in this research will involve an introduction session, where informed consent will be obtained, followed by the 8-session intervention for 9 sessions in total. A team composed of researchers from Courage Kenny Rehabilitation Institute (CKRI) propose to recruit a convenience sample of individuals who were hospitalized with COVID-19 to evaluate the efficacy of administering the Compass Course to a novel population, to improve psychological well-being, engagement in everyday activities, and purpose in life. A focus group will be scheduled 2 months after the completion of the Compass Course. This session is composed of brief questionnaires and designed to obtain post-course data to help evaluate the Compass Course intervention. Read Less

Registry study to gather more information on the current use of Blue Light Cystoscopy with Cysview (BLCC) in urologists' practices. Read Less

The main purpose of this study is to determine the threshold level of lower extremity CIPN symptoms that put patients who have been prescribed a neurotoxic chemotherapy agent (e.g., paclitaxel, docetaxel, oxaliplatin or cisplatin) as part of their treatment regimen for cancer at-risk for falling. The investigators believe that by specifying early CIPN symptoms that predict fall-risk, The investigators will ultimately be able to identify at-risk patients who could be referred to rehabilitative services to prevent injurious falls while enabling them to continue the chemotherapy treatment that could save their lives.
