The Effect of Nutritional Supplementation on Actinic Purpura: A Pilot Study
Recruiting
Purpura is a macule or papule of blood in the skin. It is mostly seen in mature skin that is often prone to significant bruising. Small lesions of less than 5 mm are called petechiae and larger ones, found mostly in subcutaneous tissue, are called ecchymosis. Actinic purpura occurs almost exclusively in elderly populations. This single-blind randomized clinical trial evaluates the effect of an 8-week nutritional supplement intervention in comparison with isolated vitamin C supplements on actinic... Read More

Evaluating the Efficacy of Perinatal Membrane Allografts in Addition to the Standard of Care for the Treatment of Non-healing Diabetic Foot Ulcers.
Recruiting
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if using perinatal tissue allografts improves healing of chronic, non-healing foot ulcers in diabetic patients. The main question that this study aims to answer is: Does the use of perinatal tissue allografts in conjunction with standard of care wound management techniques result in a higher percentage of target ulcers achieving complete closure (i.e. healing) as compared to ulcers being treated with standard of care alone after 12 weeks of treatment...

BOTOX® vs. XEOMIN® for Chronic Migraine
Recruiting
Chronic migraine (CM) is a disabling disorder that sidelines active duty personnel and diminishes their quality of life. It affects 1.3% to 2.4% of the general population. These numbers increase in active duty personnel, especially those returning from deployment, as well as in veterans. Furthermore, these numbers are 4-5 times higher in military members who experienced at least one mild traumatic brain injury. CM leads to impaired cognition and poor decision-making. These impairments on critica... Read More

Innovations in Genicular Outcomes Registry
Recruiting
The registry will capture prospective data on patients receiving pain management for chronic pain due to knee osteoarthritis (OA) or pain optimization for knee arthroplasty due to knee OA. The OA pain therapies may include cryo nerve block, radiofrequency ablation (RFA), intra-articular (IA) corticosteroids, viscosupplementation, opioids, and others (e.g., non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs \[NSAIDs\]).

SPECT-CT Guided ELEctive Contralateral Neck Treatment for Patients With Lateralized Oropharyngeal Cancer
Recruiting
This study is being done to answer the following question: Is the chance of cancer spreading or returning the same if radiotherapy to the neck is guided, by using a special imaging study called lymph node mapping (lymphatic mapping) Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT-CT), compared to the usual treatment when radiotherapy is given to both sides of the neck?

S1501 Carvedilol in Preventing Cardiac Toxicity in Patients With Metastatic HER-2-Positive Breast Cancer
Recruiting
This phase III trial studies how well carvedilol works in preventing cardiac toxicity in patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER)-2-positive breast cancer that has spread to other places in the body. A beta-blocker, such as carvedilol, is used to treat heart failure and high blood pressure, and it may prevent the heart from side effects of chemotherapy.

A Biospecimen Collection Study of Leukapheresis-Derived Circulating Tumor Cells, Immune Cells, and Progenitor Cells.
Recruiting
Primary Objective: This is a study to investigate the feasibility of harvesting, expanding, and selecting T lymphocytes from cancer patients and healthy volunteers. The preliminary objective of this study is aimed at selecting PD-1+ and CTLA4+ T cells and other cellular fractions from peripheral blood of cancer patients and healthy volunteers by using specific conjugated antibodies, evaluating their functional ex vivo anti-tumor cytotoxicity against targeted autologous tumor cells.
