Predicting and Preventing Adverse Maternal and Child Outcomes of Opioid Use Disorder in Pregnancy
NCT05942313
Recruiting
This study will be a 12-month prospective, genotype-blinded longitudinal observational study with current standard of clinical care. This study will enroll 100 pregnant women with OUD at UPMC Hospitals with its high volumes. Because of the observational nature of the study, the anticipated dropout rate will be ≤ 20%. Investigators expect the effective sample size of evaluable patients will be 200 with longitudinal data.

Crizotinib in Treating Patients With Stage IB-IIIA Non-small Cell Lung Cancer That Has Been Removed by Surgery and ALK Fusion Mutations (An ALCHEMIST Treatment Trial)
NCT02201992
Recruiting
This randomized phase III trial studies how well crizotinib works in treating patients with stage IB-IIIA non-small cell lung cancer that has been removed by surgery and has a mutation in a protein called anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK). Mutations, or changes, in ALK can make it very active and important for tumor cell growth and progression. Crizotinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the ALK protein from working. Crizotinib may be an effective treatment for patients with non-sma... Read More

MammaPrint, BluePrint, and Full-genome Data Linked With Clinical Data to Evaluate New Gene EXpression Profiles
NCT03053193
Recruiting
The FLEX Registry will be implemented to operate as a large-scale, population based, prospective registry. All patients with stage I to III breast cancer who receive MammaPrint® and BluePrint testing on a primary breast tumor are eligible for entry into the FLEX Registry, which is intended to enable additional study arms at low incremental effort and cost. FLEX Registry will utilize an adaptive design, where additional targeted substudies and arms can be added after the initial study is opened.

Liver Volume Variation Effect on SBRT Planning and Delivery for Upper Abdominal Malignancies
NCT06355895
Recruiting
Standard planning constraints for liver SBRT incorporate strict dose-volume limits for normal liver parenchyma to minimize the risk of radiation-induced liver disease. The presence of diurnal and fasting/fed variations in liver volume therefore carry substantial potential for introducing errors into estimates of dose-volume distribution within normal liver tissue, as well as affecting day-to-day setup fidelity and organ alignment for treatment. This prospective study will examine how diurnal and... Read More
