This screening and multi-sub-study randomized phase II/III trial will establish a method for genomic screening of similar large cancer populations followed by assigning and accruing simultaneously to a multi-sub-study hybrid Master Protocol (Lung-MAP). The type of cancer trait (biomarker) will determine to which sub-study, within this protocol, a participant will be assigned to compare new targeted cancer therapy, designed to block the growth and spread of cancer, or combinations to standard of care therapy with the ultimate goal of being able to approve new targeted therapies in this setting. In addition, the protocol includes non-match sub-studies which will include all screened patients not eligible for any of the biomarker-driven sub-studies. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to determine if intravenous L-citrulline can abrogate an active vaso-occlusive crisis in sickle cell disease, resulting in decreased pain, reduction or elimination of opiate usage, and reduction or elimination of hospital admission. The applicant is developing intravenous L-citrulline (Turnobi™) for treatment of sickle cell disease (SCD). The current development program targets treatment of sickle cell-associated vaso-occlusive crisis (VOC) specifically. The aim of Part 1 is to identify the optimum dose regimens for the Part 2 of the trial which is a double-blind, placebo controlled adaptive 'pick-the-winner' design. This study will allow assignment of more subjects to the better treatment arm/s based on emerging data. The study, initially, will evaluate efficacy and tolerability of incremental doses of intravenous (IV) L-citrulline (Turnobi™) in patients with SCD while receiving standard of care therapy for VOC.

This trial studies whether the blood marker micro ribonucleic acid (miRNA) 371 can predict the chance of cancer returning in patients with germ cell cancers. Studying samples of blood from patients with germ cell cancers in the laboratory may help doctors predict how likely the cancer will come back. Read Less

This phase III trial studies how well standard systemic therapy with or without definitive treatment (prostate removal surgery or radiation therapy) works in treating participants with prostate cancer that has spread to other places in the body. Addition of prostate removal surgery or radiation therapy to standard systemic therapy for prostate cancer may lower the chance of the cancer growing or spreading. Read Less

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the dose effect of Phenylephrine Hydrochloride Injection on the treatment of clinically relevant decreased blood pressure in the pediatric population, ≥12 to 16 year old patients undergoing general and neuraxial anesthesia. The secondary objectives are to describe changes in blood pressure and heart rate, time to onset and to maximal response, and the duration of response; to assess the safety of the product in this population; and to characterize the pharmacokinetics of phenylephrine hydrochloride.

This phase II trial studies how well radiation therapy with or without cisplatin works in treating patients with stage III-IVA squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck who have undergone surgery. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. It is not yet known if radiation therapy is more effective with or without cisplatin in treating patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck. Read Less

This randomized phase III trial studies how well crizotinib works in treating patients with stage IB-IIIA non-small cell lung cancer that has been removed by surgery and has a mutation in a protein called anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK). Mutations, or changes, in ALK can make it very active and important for tumor cell growth and progression. Crizotinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the ALK protein from working. Crizotinib may be an effective treatment for patients with non-small cell lung cancer and an ALK fusion mutation. Read Less

This study evaluates whether a 4-week exercise training program focusing on lower limb flexors can improve lower limb motor function late after stroke. It is hypothesized that there would be significant improvements in gait and strength of the flexor muscles as a result of the training. It is also hypothesized that the training effects, if any, would be retained at 4 weeks after ending the training. Read Less

The goal of this clinical trial-prospective study will provide important information on equitable implementation strategies to improve hypertension management in women with breast cancer by evaluating the feasibility and safety of remote hypertension management using home blood pressure telemonitoring that will provide individualized hypertension management, health and wellness education for hypertension prevention of women with breast cancer stages I-IV. Also this study may provide evidence to inform a potential paradigm shift in joint social and clinical management of hypertension that future studies may use to address complex social and clinical comorbidities that affect women with hypertension in Mississippi. The main questions this study aims to answer are: To examine the feasibility of using home BP telemonitoring to provide individualized hypertension management in a population of women with breast cancer and food insecurity. To examine the effectiveness of telemonitoring in achieving 2017 ACC/AHA guidelines for hypertension control in women with breast cancer and food insecurity using the RE-AIM framework. To pilot the integration of a community service partnership to decrease food insecurity in the 40 women who participate in the home BP telemonitoring program. Using the mailed telemonitoring kit (iPad tablet and Blood Pressure Cuff) the participants of this study will be asked to access a daily health session using iPad and obtain a blood pressure measurement using blood pressure cuff that transmits readings wirelessly via Bluetooth to the tablet which is uploaded directly to the participants UMMC electronic health records. Participants are asked to obtain two consecutive blood pressure measurements during each session and register at least 6 sessions per week. The study duration will be 6 months. Every 2 weeks blood pressure measurements will be assessed. If less than 75% of measurements are at goal systolic blood pressure 75% of measurements are at goal systolic blood pressure<130mmHg and diastolic blood pressure <80mmHg, the patients nurse coordinator will contact them via telephone and assess for medication adherence and report to the patient's primary care provider and oncologist.

Our intent is to establish the International Registry to Improve Outcomes in Men with Advanced Prostate Cancer (IRONMAN) as a prospective, international cohort of minimum 5,000 men with advanced cancer, including men with mHSPC and M0/M1 CRPC. The goal is to establish a population-based registry and recruit patients across academic and community practices from Australia, Barbados, Brazil, Canada, Ireland, Jamaica, Kenya, Nigeria, Norway, Spain, South Africa, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom (UK), and the United States (US). Target accrual number and number of participating sites are subject to change based on accrual, funding, and interest in participation by other international sites. This cohort study will facilitate a better understanding of the variation in care and treatment of advanced prostate cancer across countries and across academia and community based practices. Detailed data will be collected from patients at study enrollment and then during follow-up, for a minimum of five years. Patients will be followed prospectively for overall survival, clinically significant adverse events, comorbidities, changes in cancer treatments, and PROMs. PROMs questionnaires will be collected at enrollment and every three months thereafter. Physician Questionnaires will be collected from all participating sites at patient enrollment, time of first change in treatment and/or one year follow-up, at each subsequent change of treatment, and discontinuation of treatment. As such, this registry will help identify the treatment sequences or combinations that optimize overall survival and PROMs for men with mHSPC and M0/M1 CRPC. By collecting blood at enrollment, time of first change in treatment and/or one year follow-up (plasma, cell free DNA, buffy coat / RNA), this registry will further identify and validate molecular phenotypes of disease that predict response and resistance to specific therapeutics. Additionally, every effort will be made to collect blood specimen at each subsequent change in treatment due to progression of disease. When feasible, existing tumor tissue may be collected for correlation with described blood based studies. All samples will be used for future research. This cohort study will provide the research community with a unique biorepository to identify biomarkers of treatment response and resistance. Read Less
