EPIC-Peds: A Study to Learn About the Study Medicine Called PF-07321332 (Nirmatrelvir)/Ritonavir in Patients Under 18 Years of Age With COVID-19 That Are Not Hospitalized But Are at Risk for Severe Disease
Recruiting
The purpose of this clinical trial is to learn about the safety, pharmacokinetics (pharmacokinetics helps us understand how the drug is changed and eliminated from your body after you take it), and efficacy (how well a study treatment works in the study) of the study medicine (called nirmatrelvir/ritonavir) for potential treatment of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The study medicine will be given to patients under 18 years of age with COVID-19 that are not hospitalized but are at risk for... Read More

Detection of Prostate Cancer Using Voided Urine
Recruiting
This study collects urine from male patients seen at the urology clinic to detect prostate cancer cells, shed in voided urine, using the optical imaging method developed in the laboratory, which targets certain biomarkers expressed on prostate cancer cells. The information learned from this study may allow researchers develop a simple diagnostic test for the management of those patients who have elevated prostate specific antigen (PSA) and are suspected to have prostate cancer. It may also help... Read More

Videos to Aid Decision Making for Fibroid Treatment
Recruiting
Uterine fibroids are a common condition that can cause heavy and/or painful menstrual bleeding. There are many treatment options, but they vary in efficacy, side effects, short-term recovery and long-term implications for future fertility. Patients can have difficulty deciding between these options. In this study, the investigators will randomly assign patients seeking treatment for fibroids to receive an educational video on fibroids and their treatment, versus usual care (no video). The invest... Read More

Gemcitabine and Carboplatin After Progression on Enfortumab Vedotin and Pembrolizumab in Advanced/Metastatic Urothelial Carcinoma
Recruiting
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a chemotherapy combination called gemcitabine and carboplatin (GC) works to treat advanced urothelial cancer in people who have already been treated with enfortumab vedotin and pembrolizumab (EVP). It will also learn about the efficacy and safety of GC in these patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does GC shrink the cancer or stop it from growing? * What medical side effects do participants have while receiving GC? Researchers w... Read More

Induction of Labor After Cesarean Using Foley Alone vs. Concurrent Foley and Oxytocin
Recruiting
A randomized trial of patients undergoing a term (≥37 weeks) induction of labor with a history of one prior Cesarean delivery, wherein the provider intends to use a Foley catheter for cervical ripening. The investigators will be comparing Foley alone with concurrent Foley and Oxytocin use at the start of the induction. With this trial, the investigators aim to test our central hypothesis that concurrent Foley and Oxytocin will decrease time to delivery without increasing risks, compared to Foley... Read More
