Young Breast Cancer Survivors Study
Recruiting
Despite significant overall reductions in mortality rates for breast cancer over the past decade, both incidence and mortality rates have steadily climbed in adults diagnosed before age 50. This research project addresses factors associated with quality of life among and treatment response in early-age-at-onset breast cancer patients. The overall objective is collect information from early-onset breast cancer patients using an online questionnaire and examine factors related to cancer survival,... Read More

The Effect of Guided Care With Vectra Compared to Treatment as Usual in Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis
Recruiting
The goal of treating patients diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is to achieve remission or low disease activity and thereby prevent joint damage, loss of physical function, and disability. Optimal management requires regular assessment of disease activity, with treatment changes made as needed for optimal efficacy. Vectra is a blood serum test that looks at 12 biomarkers and produces a score on a scale of 1 to 100. The Vectra score has been shown to be the strongest predictor of risk for... Read More

Validation of Optical Genome Mapping for the Identification of Constitutional Genomic Variants in a Postnatal Cohort
Recruiting
The purpose of this research use only (RUO) study is to detect genomic structural variants (SVs) in human DNA by Optical Genome Mapping (OGM) using the Bionano Genomics Saphyr system. SVs are a type of genetic alternation that includes deletions, duplications, and both balanced and unbalanced rearrangements (ex: inversions or translocations), as well as specific repeat expansions and contractions. The results of OGM analysis will be compared to prior clinical genetic test results to determine ho... Read More

Low-Intensity Focused Ultrasound Pulsation (LIFUP) for the Treatment of Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD)
Recruiting
There are few treatment options available for patients once they have failed standard psychopharmacological therapy for generalized anxiety disorder. Existing brain stimulation methods such as rTMS fail to target deep brain structures associated with anxiety disorders; structures such as the amygdala. In this double-blind sham-controlled clinical trial, the investigators propose to establish baseline severity of anxiety in 48 patients, then deliver eight treatments over four sessions of focused...

Virtual Mindfulness Training for Adults With History of Depression
Recruiting
Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) has shown to be an effective method of preventing relapse of an episode Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). MBCT is a group program that integrates mindfulness skills training with cognitive-behavioral strategies. However, the cost of MBCT is not affordable to many families. The aim of this study is to explore the feasibility and efficacy of an MBCT intervention designed to be delivered at low cost through a virtual delivery format. This study will recruit... Read More

Treatment of Eustachian Tube Dysfunction (ETD) and Facial Pain With Combined Acoustic Vibration and Oscillating Expiratory Pressure
Recruiting
This study aims to test the safety, efficacy and potential mechanism of action of the SinuSonic device on adults with eustachian tube dysfunction (ETD) or facial pain/pressure. SinuSonic is a medical device that utilizes sound and pressure combined with normal breathing. The study will have 3 aims. Aim 1 will examine healthy controls with no signs of upper respiratory infection, inflammation, or ETD to determine if exhaled nasal Nitric Oxide is increased. Nitric Oxide is a compound in the body t... Read More

Oxytocin to Treat PTSD
Recruiting
Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a chronic, debilitating condition that disproportionately affects Veterans. Prolonged Exposure (PE) therapy is a "gold standard" treatment for PTSD. However, approximately one-third of Veterans fail to receive an adequate dose of treatment because they prematurely drop out of PE therapy. There is also room to improve PE treatment outcomes. Consistent with the VA Office of Research and Development initiative to develop effective treatments for PTSD, the pro... Read More
