This is a Phase Ib/II, open-label, multicenter, randomized umbrella study in participants with breast cancer. The study is designed with the flexibility to open new treatment arms as new treatments become available, close existing treatment arms that demonstrate minimal clinical activity or unacceptable toxicity, or modify the patient population. Cohort 1 will focus on participants with inoperable, locally advanced or metastatic, estrogen receptor-positive (ER+), HER2-negative breast cancer who had disease progression during or following treatment with a cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitor (CDK4/6i; e.g., palbociclib, ribociclib, abemaciclib) in the first- or second-line setting. Cohort 2 will focus on inoperable, locally advanced or metastatic, ER+, HER2-positive breast cancer with previous progression to standard-of-care anti-HER2 therapies, of which one was a trastuzumab-and-taxane-based systemic therapy (including in the early setting if recurrence occurred within 6 months of finishing adjuvant therapy) and one was a HER2-targeting antibody-drug conjugate (ADC; e.g., ado-trastuzumab emtansine or trastuzumab-deruxtecan) or a HER2-targeting tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI; e.g., tucatinib, lapatinib, pyrotinib or neratinib). Cohort 3 will focus on inoperable, locally advanced or metastatic, ER+, HER2-negative, PIK3CA-mutated breast cancer with resistance to adjuvant endocrine therapy. Read Less

Study ASTX030-01 is a multi-phase study comprising of Phases 1-3 Monotherapy arms and a Phase 1 Combination Therapy arm Phase 1 Monotherapy consists of an open-label Dose Escalation Stage (Stage A) using multiple cohorts at escalating dose levels of oral cedazuridine and azacitidine (only one study drug will be escalated at a time) followed by a Dose Expansion Stage (Stage B). Phase 2 Monotherapy is a randomized, open-label, crossover study to compare oral ASTX030 to subcutaneous (SC) azacitidine. Phase 3 Monotherapy is a randomized open-label crossover study comparing the final fixed dose of oral ASTX030 to SC azacitidine. Phase 1 Combination Therapy is an open-label, multicenter, randomized, exploratory study comparing ASTX030 and SC azacitidine in combination with venetoclax in participants with AML. The duration of this multi-phase study is approximately 7 years. Read Less

In this trial, ziftomenib, a menin-MLL(KMT2A) inhibitor, will be tested in patients for the first time. The trial includes a Main Study and four sub-studies. In the Main Study (including Phase 1a, Phase 1b, and Phase 2 portions), ziftomenib will be evaluated in patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The main study has completed enrollment. In Sub-studies 1 and 2, the effects of taking ziftomenib and other common drugs at the same time will be investigated in AML patients. In Sub-study 3, ziftomenib will be evaluated in patients with R/R acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). In Sub-study 4, ziftomenib will be evaluated in patients with R/R AML with certain genetic mutations. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to determine whether treatment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) with positive airway pressure starting shortly after acute ischemic stroke (1) reduces recurrent stroke, acute coronary syndrome, and all-cause mortality 6 months after the event, and (2) improves stroke outcomes at 3 months in patients who experienced an ischemic stroke.

This is a Phase 3 clinical study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of boric acid 600 mg vaginal inserts in patients with VVC. Read Less

The purpose of this phase 3, randomized, placebo controlled, event-driven study is to assess the effect of AZD0780, an oral PCSK9 inhibitor, compared with placebo in reducing the risk of MACE-PLUS in patients with established ASCVD or at high risk for a first ASCVD event. The effect of AZD0780 vs placebo on the risk of MACE-PLUS will be evaluated from randomisation until the primary analysis censoring date (PACD). The Study Closure Visit will be scheduled to occur after the PACD and will be the final visit for each participant in the study. Read Less

HVTN 206/HPTN 114 is a randomized, double blind, controlled, phase 2 clinical trial to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and neutralization of VRC07-523LS, PGT121.414.LS, and PGDM1400LS broadly neutralizing monoclonal antibodies given intravenously in adult participants without HIV. The hypothesis of the study is that the combination of VRC07-523LS and PGT121.414.LS and PGDM1400LS antibodies when administered via the intravenous (IV) route will be safe and tolerable in adult participants without HIV. The study aims to enroll 200 participants across multiple sites with an estimated total duration of participation of eighteen (18) months. Read Less

This is a single center, double-blind, randomized trial to compare the effects of intrathecal hydromorphone versus intrathecal morphine to treat post cesarean pain in patients with OUD taking buprenorphine. Inclusion criteria include American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) Physical Status II or III presenting for cesarean delivery to be done under spinal anesthesia, who have a diagnosis of OUD and are taking buprenorphine. Exclusion criteria include contraindication to spinal anesthesia, allergy/intolerance to acetaminophen or ibuprofen and laboring patients who have an epidural that will be used for anesthesia for cesarean delivery. Potential subjects will be approached about participating in the study at either their preop anesthesia visit or on the day of surgery after surgical and anesthesia consent has been obtained. Enrolled patients will be randomly allocated to receive either 200 mcg of intrathecal morphine or 100 mcg of intrathecal hydromorphone (study opioid medication). Intraoperatively, with the patient in a sitting position a spinal block will be performed with administration of 0.75% bupivacaine in 8.25% dextrose, 15 mcg fentanyl and the study opioid medication. Supplemental intraoperative analgesia/anxiolysis will be administered at the discretion of the anesthesia care team. Ultrasound-guided transversus abdominis plane blocks will be performed bilaterally at the end of the procedure with 10mL liposomal bupivacaine mixed with 10mL 0.25% bupivacaine injected on each side. Post-cesarean multimodal pain regimen will include scheduled acetaminophen 650mg every 6 hours and scheduled ibuprofen 600mg every 6 hours. Oxycodone will be ordered for breakthrough pain, starting at 5mg every 6 hours as needed. Escalation of as needed pain medication will be at the discretion of the anesthesia team. The patient will be followed for the following 36 hours postoperatively. The primary outcome is the patient's pain score with movement at 12 hours. Secondary outcomes include pain scores at rest and with movement at 6 and 24 hours, satisfaction with anesthesia, time to first opioid use, total opioid consumption in 24 and 36 hours, subjective rating of nausea and pruritis over first 24 hours , treatment for nausea or pruritis in 24 and 36 hours, Obstetric Quality of Recovery 10 (ObsQoR10) score, and Global Health Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) score.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the online, simulated human "Talk to Nathan About Prostate Cancer Screening" decision aid (https://www.cdc.gov/prostate-cancer/talk-to-nathan/index.html) is effective in helping patients decide about prostate cancer screening. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is using the "Talk to Nathan About Prostate Cancer Screening" decision aid effective in improving knowledge, overcoming health literacy barriers, and resolving decisional conflict compared to a standard decision aid or standard education materials? * What are the barriers and best practices for incorporating Talk to Nathan About Prostate Cancer Screening into the flow of primary care practice? Researchers will compare "Talk to Nathan About Prostate Cancer Screening" to a standard decision aid and to standard prostate cancer screening education materials to test the effectiveness of using "Talk to Nathan About Prostate Cancer Screening." Participants will: * Use "Talk to Nathan About Prostate Cancer Screening," use a standard decision aid, or use standard education materials about prostate cancer screening * Visit the primary care clinic for follow-up * Complete surveys as part of the clinical trial Read Less
