Evaluate Impact of Exercise Program on Fatigue in Breast Cancer During Chemotherapy
Recruiting
Assess feasibility of home exercise in reducing fatigue in subjects with breast cancer receiving curative intent chemotherapy. Subjects are randomized to control (no exercise) or intervention group (exercise). The PRO-CTCAE tool and FACIT Fatigue Scale are used to collect patient reported outcomes. Subjects submit data via mobile phone, tablet or computer. Assessments are weekly during chemotherapy (10-20 wks), at end of chemotherapy and 1, 3 and 6 months after chemotherapy.

HomeStyles-2: Shaping HOME Environments and LifeSTYLES to Prevent Childhood Obesity
Recruiting
Parents are children's primary role models, are food and physical activity gatekeepers, and create the structure/lifestyle environment within the home. Thus, parents strongly influence children's weight-related behaviors and have the opportunity to cultivate a "culture of health" within the home. Yet, there continues to be a dearth of evidence-based obesity prevention intervention programs, especially for families with children aged 6 to 11 years, commonly called the middle childhood years. The... Read More

Acute Effects of Walking Exercise on Brain Functioning in Multiple Sclerosis
Recruiting
The project will involve a within-subjects, repeated-measures research design. Participants will initially be screened for relevant inclusion/exclusion criteria for maximizing safety of participating in an exercise study. If a participant meets those inclusion/exclusion criteria, they will visit Kessler Foundation three times. The first visit will involve a baseline session where participants will complete several cognitive tests. This will be followed by a training session, where participants w... Read More

RADIANT: Pre-op Radiation With Abemaciclib and Letrozole
Recruiting
This phase 1b study investigates the safety and feasibility of combining pre-operative radiation therapy with Cyclin-Dependent Kinase 4 (CDK4/6) inhibitors in participants with hormone receptor positive/HER2 negative (HR+/HER2-) breast cancer. The study aims to assess the benefits of concurrent use of these treatments in a specific participant population, focusing on their safety and tolerability. The hypothesis is that the combination therapy will be well-tolerated, providing valuable insights... Read More

Investigating the Effects of Wearable Robotic Exoskeleton for Improving Mobility and Cognition in Persons With MS
Recruiting
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the usefulness of a wearable robotic exoskeleton device (Ekso-GT), to improve learning and memory, and gait therapy in persons with walking disability due to Multiple Sclerosis. The study will evaluate the mobility, learning and memory, and walking abilities of individuals with multiple sclerosis who went through the traditional as compared to others who used the robotic exoskeleton as part of their therapy.

Use of Prophylactic Antibiotics Prior to OnabotulinumtoxinA
Recruiting
This study aims to show that lack of antibiotic prophylaxis to those undergoing bladder Botox injections is not significantly inferior to administering prophylaxis. By proving this, the investigators aim to decrease antibiotic use in this setting to combat the growing issue of antibiotic resistance. Participants will be randomized to antibiotic or no treatment arm. Those randomized to the treatment arm will receive oral antibiotics for 2 days pre-treatment, on the treatment day, and 2 days post... Read More

Behavioral Exposure for Introceptive Tolerance RCT
Recruiting
Behavioral Exposure for Interoceptive Tolerance (BE-FIT) is a mechanism-informed behavioral intervention to target exercise anxiety. The three primary components of BE-FIT include: (1) exposure to feared bodily sensations and exercise; (2) prevention of safety behavior use before/during/after exercise, and (3) use of a wrist-worn activity monitor for physical activity (PA) feedback and activity goal setting. Evidence from the investigators' Stage I trial indicated that BE-FIT is feasible, accept... Read More

Modulating Reward Learning Using Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation
Recruiting
Our specific aim is to examine the effects of TMS on reward processing during goal-directed behavior. In these experiments the investigators will utilize a scalp-recorded brain oscillation called frontal midline theta that is believed to index the sensitivity of the cingulate cortex to reward feedback. Here the investigators will asked whether this electrophysiological signal can be modulated up or down using TMS while participants engage in decision making tasks, and if so, whether it would aff...

Microbiotic Product to Promote Microbiome Health and Improve Chemotherapy Delivery
Recruiting
This phase II trial tests whether NBT-NM108 works in reducing chemotherapy-induced diarrhea in patients with colon cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Irinotecan is one of the most used medicine for colon cancer, but it leads to diarrhea in most patients receiving it and among some of them, severe diarrhea can occur. NBT-NM108 is a high dietary fiber formula that is developed based on research findings that have shown that high fiber diets can help maintain healthy b... Read More
