Ohio Paid Clinical Trials

The study participant has been diagnosed with non-rhabdomyosarcoma (NRSTS). Primary Objectives Intermediate-Risk * To estimate the 3-year event-free survival for intermediate-risk patients treated with ifosfamide, doxorubicin, pazopanib, surgery, and maintenance pazopanib, with or without RT. * To characterize the pharmacokinetics of pazopanib and doxorubicin in combination with ifosfamide in intermediate-risk participants, to assess potential covariates to explain the inter- and intra-individual pharmacokinetic variability, and to explore associations between clinical effects and pazopanib and doxorubicin pharmacokinetics. High-Risk * To estimate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or the recommended phase 2 dosage (RP2D) of selinexor in combination with ifosfamide, doxorubicin, pazopanib, and maintenance pazopanib in high-risk participants. * To characterize the pharmacokinetics of selinexor, pazopanib and doxorubicin in combination with ifosfamide in high-risk participants, to assess potential covariates to explain the inter- and intra-individual pharmacokinetic variability, and to explore associations between clinical effects and selinexor, pazopanib and doxorubicin pharmacokinetics. Secondary Objectives * To estimate the cumulative incidence of primary site local failure and distant metastasis-free, disease-free, event-free, and overall survival in participants treated on the risk-based treatment strategy defined in this protocol. * To define and describe the CTCAE Grade 3 or higher toxicities, and specific grade 1-2 toxicities, in low- and intermediate-risk participants. * To study the association between radiation dosimetry in participants receiving radiation therapy and the incidence and type of dosimetric local failure, normal adjacent tissue exposure, and musculoskeletal toxicity. * To evaluate the objective response rate (complete and partial response) after 3 cycles for high-risk patients receiving the combination of selinexor with ifosfamide, doxorubicin, pazopanib, and maintenance pazopanib. * To assess the relationship between the pharmacogenetic variation in drug-metabolizing enzymes or drug transporters and the pharmacokinetics of selinexor, pazopanib, and doxorubicin in intermediate- or high-risk patients. Exploratory Objectives * To explore the correlation between radiographic response, pathologic response, survival, and toxicity, and tumor molecular characteristics, as assessed through next-generation sequencing (NGS), including whole genome sequencing (WGS), whole exome sequencing (WES), and RNA sequencing (RNAseq). * To explore the feasibility of determining DNA mutational signatures and homologous repair deficiency status in primary tumor samples and to explore the correlation between these molecular findings and the radiographic response, survival, and toxicity of patients treated on this protocol. * To explore the feasibility of obtaining DNA methylation profiling on pretreatment, post-induction chemotherapy, and recurrent (if possible) tumor material, and to assess the correlation with this and pathologic diagnosis, tumor control, and survival outcomes where feasible. * To explore the feasibility of obtaining high resolution single-cell RNA sequencing of pretreatment, post-induction chemotherapy, and recurrent (if possible) tumor material, and to characterize the longitudinal changes in tumor heterogeneity and tumor microenvironment. * To explore the feasibility of identifying characteristic alterations in non-rhabdomyosarcoma soft tissue sarcoma in cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in blood as a non-invasive method of detecting and tracking changes during therapy, and to assess the correlation of cfDNA and mutations in tumor samples. * To describe cardiovascular and musculoskeletal health, cardiopulmonary fitness among children and young adults with NRSTS treated on this protocol. * To investigate the potential prognostic value of serum cardiac biomarkers (high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I (hs-cTnI), N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-Pro-BNP), serial electrocardiograms (EKGs), and serial echocardiograms in patients receiving ifosfamide, doxorubicin, and pazopanib, with or without selinexor. * To define the rates of near-complete pathologic response (\>90% necrosis) and change in FDG PET maximum standard uptake value (SUVmax) from baseline to week 13 in intermediate risk patients with initially unresectable tumors treated with induction pazopanib, ifosfamide, and doxorubicin, and to correlate this change with tumor control and survival outcomes. * To determine the number of high-risk patients initially judged unresectable at diagnosis that are able to undergo primary tumor resection after treatment with ifosfamide, doxorubicin, selinexor, and pazopanib. * To identify the frequency with which assessment of volumes of interest (VOIs) of target lesions would alter RECIST response assessment compared with standard linear measurements.

The liver produces a protein called alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT). AAT is normally released into the bloodstream. In some people, the liver makes an abnormal version of the AAT protein, called Z-AAT. Making an abnormal version of the AAT protein can result in liver disease as Z-AAT builds up in liver cells, which leads to liver problems such as liver scarring (fibrosis), continuing liver damage (cirrhosis), and eventually endstage liver disease. Fazirsiran is a medicine that reduces the creation of the Z-AAT protein and thus the build-up of this abnormal protein in the liver. People with this type of liver disease who already have mild liver scarring will take part in the study. They will be treated with fazirsiran or a placebo for about 2 years. This study will check the long-term safety of fazirsiran, whether participants tolerate the treatment and if there are any effects on liver scarring. A liver biopsy, a way of collecting a small tissue sample from the liver, will be taken twice during the study. Read Less

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if new educational program prior to epilepsy surgery can either decrease the risk of cognitive decline after surgery or be a help to those patients who experience a decline after undergoing epilepsy surgery. Participants will participate in 2 individual virtual sessions and 4 virtual group sessions over the course of 5-6 weeks prior to their epilepsy surgery. They will asked to fill out online surveys and questionnaires at various times throughout the study, up to 12 months after their surgery. To see if the educational program works, researchers will compare those participating in the educational program with those that are receiving the standard epilepsy care prior to surgery. Read Less

The goal of this clinical trial is to study the safety and tolerability in all advanced solid tumors, including advanced urothelial carcinoma. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: * Is FX-909 safe and tolerable * What is the right dose level for patients Participants will be asked to take FX-909 daily , in tablet form and record any outcomes from taking the drug. Participants will also be asked to return for multiple site visits for various blood tests and to collect blood and tumor samples as well as have regular CT/MRI scans Read Less

This is a Phase 1/2, multi-center, open-label study evaluating the safety and efficacy of LYL314, a dual-targeting chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) targeting cluster of differentiation (CD)19 and CD20 in participants with aggressive large B-cell lymphoma. Read Less

This study aims to assess how use of spinal cord stimulation for the treatment of chronic pain impacts brain structure and function. The investigators will use a non-invasive neuroimaging technique called resting state Near Infrared Spectroscopy and Electroencephalography (rs-fNIRS/EEG). The investigators will enroll Veterans who are currently receiving care at the Medical Center and who are either long term users of SCS for the treatment of their chronic pain or being evaluated for use of SCS to treat their pain.

This study will evaluate the effects of combining motor learning-based therapy with use of the MyoPro , a wearable exoskeletal myoelectrically controlled orthotic device. MyoPro uses electromyographic (EMG) signals from the weak muscles to assist movement of the user's affected arm. The primary objective of this randomized controlled trial is to study the efficacy of using MyoPro in motor learning-based therapy for individuals with chronic stroke (\>6 months post) with severe upper limb motor deficits (Fugl-Meyer for Upper Limb score less than 30) compared with a similar dose of motor learning-based therapy alone. The secondary objectives are to evaluate neuroplasticity mechanisms, identify biomarkers of greater response to the intervention, and explore cost-effectiveness. Read Less

The APOLLO study is being done in an attempt to improve outcomes after kidney transplantation and to improve the safety of living kidney donation based upon variation in the apolipoprotein L1 gene (APOL1). Genes control what is inherited from a family, such as eye color or blood type. Variation in APOL1 can cause kidney disease. African Americans, Afro-Caribbeans, Hispanic Blacks, and Africans are more likely to have the APOL1 gene variants that cause kidney disease. APOLLO will test DNA from kidney donors and recipients of kidney transplants for APOL1 to determine effects on kidney transplant-related outcomes. Read Less
