Dose Escalation Trial of Safety, Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic and Preliminary Clinical Activity of Briquilimab in Adult Patients with Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria (CSU)
Recruiting
This trial will be performed as a three-part dose escalating clinical trial where Parts 1 is open label and Parts 2 and 3 are randomized, double-blinded, and placebo-controlled. The trial is intended to determine the safety and tolerability and assess the preliminary efficacy of briquilimab in adult participants with chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU), who remain symptomatic despite treatment with H1 antihistamines and omalizumab. Additionally, pharmacokinetic (PK) properties of briquilimab, a... Read More

Neoadjuvant PD-1 Blockade in Resectable Merkel Cell Carcinoma
Recruiting
The main purpose of this study is to determine the response of Merkel cell carcinoma to pembrolizumab before surgery and to determine whether it further reduces the risk for disease recurrence. Another purpose of this study is to look at the side effects that occur when the experimental drug pembrolizumab is given to people with Merkel cell carcinoma before and after their standard of care surgery to remove the Merkel cell carcinoma.

Pregabalin Plus Lofexidine for the Outpatient Treatment of Opioid Withdrawal
Recruiting
A placebo-controlled trial in which male and female outpatients with an opioid use disorder who express interest in extended-release injectable naltrexone (XR-NTX) are randomized 1:1 to lofexidine/pregabalin or lofexidine/pregabalin placebo for withdrawal management and offered XR-NTX if after completing withdrawal.

Flu Infection at UPHS
Recruiting
Cellular and humoral immune responses in individuals with active influenza infection will be assessed. Each year, up to 50 participants will be enrolled. The investigators hypothesize that influenza infection will elicit mostly memory immune responses rather than de novo immune responses to infection.

Modern Immunotherapy in BCG-Unresponsive, BCG-Relapsing and High Risk BCG-Naive Non-Muscle Invasive Urothelial Carcinoma of the Bladder
Recruiting
Upon successful screening and registration, enrollment to durvalumab monotherapy (cohort 1) will begin. If DLT criteria outlined in the protocol are exceeded with durvalumab monotherapy (cohort 1), the study will close. Provided the safety of durvalumab monotherapy is established, enrollment to combination regimen cohorts will proceed. Cohorts will simultaneously enroll in parallel to each other with patients assigned to cohorts based on patient slot availability and study site choice of radiati... Read More

A Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Immunogenicity of CH505M5 N197D mRNA-gp160 Followed by CH505 TF mRNA-gp160 in Adults in Overall Good Health Without HIV
Recruiting
This is a multicenter, open-label, non-randomized, dose escalation, first-in-human (FIH) trial to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of CH505M5 N197D mRNA-gp160 and CH505 TF mRNA-gp160. Both products are mRNA encapsulated in lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) (subsequently referred to as mRNA-LNPs). The primary hypotheses are: 1. the CH505M5 N197D mRNA-gp160 will expand CH235-like B cell precursors, 2. the CH505 TF mRNA-gp160 will boost CH235-like bnAb B cell precursors to acquire more functional m...
