Development of a Database to Investigate Digital and Blood-Based Biomarkers and Their Relationship to Tau and Amyloid PET Imaging in Older Participants Who Are Cognitively Normal (CN), Have Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), or Have Mild-to-Moderate AD Dementia
NCT06584357
Recruiting
Bio-Hermes-002 is a 120-day cross-sectional study that will result in a blood, CSF, retinal, digital, MRI, and PET brain imaging biomarker database that can be used to determine the primary objective. Digital biomarkers and blood-based biomarkers will be tested to determine whether a meaningful relationship exists between biomarkers alone or in combination with tau or amyloid brain pathology identified through PET images.

Protocol for Facilitating the Acquisition of Research Bone Marrow and Blood Samples
NCT01985919
Recruiting
This clinical research protocol is intended to allow for bone marrow aspirate/biopsy and blood specimens to be collected for research purposes, specifically allowing subjects the option of sedation during the bone marrow procedure. Samples will be banked for future research related to cancer and other diseases. Researchers hope this protocol will improve the collection of research correlative and translational biopsy specimens for clinical research.

Low-Dose Radiotherapy in Treating Painful Bone Metastases in Patients With Multiple Myeloma
NCT03858205
Recruiting
This phase II trial studies how well low-dose radiotherapy works in treating bone pain in patients with multiple myeloma that has spread to the bone. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays, gamma rays, neutrons, protons, or other sources to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Low-dose radiotherapy may be more convenient for patients and their families, may not interfere as much with the timing of chemotherapy, and may have less chance for short term or long-term side effects from the radiatio...

Neurofeedback to Treat Depression
NCT05169346
Recruiting
This study tests the efficacy of a new psychotherapeutic strategy for reducing negative attention bias (and therefore depression severity) in participants with MDD (60 in R61 phase and 80 in R33 Phase). This real-time fMRI neurofeedback therapy uses cloud-based pattern classification to decode a patient's attentional state and dynamically modulate task stimuli (in a closed loop) based on this state.
