A Registry for BRCA Mutation Carriers With Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma
Recruiting
The purpose of this study is to better understand why pancreatic cancer develops in some people who are known carriers of the gene mutation (an abnormality) called BRCA, or its close relative PALB2. The investigators hope to do this by establishing a BRCA/PALB2 mutation carriers Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (the common form of pancreatic cancer) Registry.

Conduit Cages and Fibergraft BG Putty
Recruiting
The Conduit cages are intended to restore the intervertebral height and to facilitate the intervertebral body fusion in the cervical and lumbar spine in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease and instabilities at one or more levels of the spine. The Fibergraft Bioactive Glass (BG) is engineered to mimic the body's natural bone healing process. While previous studies have described the use of conduit cages in interbody fixation procedures, these studies did not specifically stu... Read More

Longitudinal Tumor Burden Quantification Using Circulating Tumor DNA in Metastatic Lobular Breast Cancer
Recruiting
The goal of this study is to characterize early dynamic changes in ctDNA, which can aid in tailoring early therapy in patients with metastatic Invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC). Response assessment using ctDNA analysis could not only aid in de-escalation but also escalation strategies.

A 12-week Pilot Nutrition Intervention for Children With New Diagnosis of Stage 3 Type 1 Diabetes (T1D)
Recruiting
The purpose of this research study is to investigate the effects of a combination of weekly distribution of healthy foods and intensive nutrition counseling as complementary therapies to the standard insulin therapy in children with new diagnosis of stage 3 type 1 diabetes (T1D). Feasibility, acceptability, and fidelity of this intervention will be measured. We will also explore the likelihood of prolonging the honeymoon phase of T1D in the intervention study group.

Testing Whether the Addition of Carboplatin Chemotherapy to Cabazitaxel Chemotherapy Will Improve Outcomes Compared to Cabazitaxel Alone in People With Castrate-Resistant Prostate Cancer That Has Spread Beyond the Prostate to Other Parts of the Body
Recruiting
This phase III trial compares the effect of adding carboplatin to the standard of care chemotherapy drug cabazitaxel versus cabazitaxel alone in treating prostate cancer that keeps growing even when the amount of testosterone in the body is reduced to very low levels (castrate-resistant) and that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Carboplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. Carboplatin works by kill... Read More

Study of Navtemadlin Add-on to Ruxolitinib in JAK Inhibitor-Naïve Patients with Myelofibrosis Who Have a Suboptimal Response to Ruxolitinib
Recruiting
This clinical trial is evaluating whether addition of navtemadlin to ruxolitinib treatment will provide more clinical benefit than ruxolitinib alone for patients with Myelofibrosis who have a suboptimal response to ruxolitinib treatment alone. Subjects will start by receiving ruxolitinib alone in the run-in period. Those who demostrate a suboptimal response from ruxolitinib alone will then be randomized 2:1 to receive navtemadlin or navtemadlin placebo as add-on treatment to their ongoing ruxol... Read More
