A Study of VRC07-523LS, PGT121.414.LS, and PGDM1400LS Broadly Neutralizing Monoclonal Antibodies Given Intravenously in Adult Participants Without HIV
Recruiting
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...

Mechanistic Interventions and Neuroscience of Dissociation
Recruiting
The purpose of this study is to test the neurophysiological mechanisms of an intervention to reduce symptoms of dissociation in traumatized people. The intervention will be tested in dissociative traumatized people at two sites: Emory University and University of Pittsburgh. The researchers are interested in whether neural networks associated with attentional control and interoceptive awareness can be enhanced in this population. The researchers propose to evaluate whether different body-focused... Read More

A Study of Potential Disease Modifying Treatments in Individuals at Risk for or With a Type of Early Onset AD Caused by a Genetic Mutation
Recruiting
The purpose is to evaluate the biomarker effect, safety, and tolerability of investigational study drugs in participants who are known to have an Alzheimer's disease (AD)-causing mutation. Stage 1 will determine if treatment with the study drug prevents or slows the rate of amyloid beta (Aβ) pathological disease accumulation demonstrated by Aβ positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. Stage 2 will evaluate the effect of early Aβ plaque reduction/prevention on disease progression by assessing d... Read More

Beta-blocker Administration for Cardiomyocyte Division
Recruiting
Heart failure is a common long-term complication in patients with congenital heart disease (CHD). Medical treatments to promote regeneration of new healthy heart muscle cells have the potential to provide new heart failure treatments for these patients. The development of such therapies is limited by the poor understanding of the ways in which heart muscles grow after birth. Investigators have learned that humans without heart disease generate new heart muscles cells up to the age of 20 years ol... Read More
