Proton and Photon Consortium Registry (PPCR): A Multi Center Registry of Pediatric Patients Treated With Radiation Therapy
Recruiting
In previous studies, Proton Beam Radiation Therapy (PBRT) has been found to show better results in treating patients with cancer, both because there is better control of where in the body the radiation is directed and because it is associated with less severe long term side effects. However, there is limited published data demonstrating these results. The goal of the Proton and Photon Consortium Registry (PPCR) is to enroll children treated with radiation in order to describe the population that... Read More

A Study of TSR-022 in Participants With Advanced Solid Tumors (AMBER)
Recruiting
This is a first-in-human study evaluating the anti-T cell immunoglobulin and mucin containing protein-3 (TIM-3) antibody TSR-022. The study will be conducted in 2 parts with Part 1 consisting of dose escalation and Part 2 dose expansion. Part 1 will determine the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of TSR-022 and Part 2 will evaluate the antitumor activity of TSR-022 in combination with TSR-042 or docetaxel and as monotherapy

Virtual Reality Training for Social Skills in Schizophrenia - Comparison With Cognitive Training
Recruiting
Social impairments are core features of schizophrenia that lead to poor outcome. Social skills and competence improve quality of life and protect against stress-related exacerbation of symptoms, while supporting resilience, interpersonal interactions, and social affiliation. To improve outcome, it is necessary to remediate social deficits. Existing psychosocial interventions are moderately effective but the effort-intensive nature (high burden), low adherence, and weak transfer of skills to ever... Read More

Gravity Versus Vacuum Based Indwelling Tunneled Pleural Drainage System
Recruiting
Malignant pleural effusion remains a debilitating complication of end stage cancer, which can be greatly improved by the introduction of the indwelling tunneled pleural catheter (IPC). However, there is no standard of care regarding drainage and limited data on the utility of different drainage techniques. In addition, many patients develop discomfort and chest pain during drainage. The investigators propose to evaluate gravity drainage and suction drainage on quality of life measures and outcom...

Pilot Study of a Brief, Recovery-focused Intervention for Crisis Stabilization Centers
Recruiting
Crisis Stabilization Centers (CSCs) have a unique role to play in Emergency Department diversion and suicide-specific care. However, brief interventions tailored for CSC settings are needed. This study will examine a new, 60-minute, narrative, technology-based, recovery-oriented intervention called THRIVE. THRIVE may help people make meaning of their suicide crisis, reduce suicidal ideation, and increase their recovery compared to usual care. If effective, THRIVE will help CSCs deliver better re...

Post Acute Sequelae of COVID-19
Recruiting
COVID-19, a novel coronavirus, has caused widespread mortality and morbidity since it emerged in 2019. There is ongoing research and growing literature describing severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS-COV-2). There is a growing population of individuals who have recovered from acute SARS-COV-2 infection. The long-term effects of COVID-19 are unknown. There are growing reports of sequelae after acute SARS-CoV-2 not limited to fatigue, dyspnea, reactive airway disease, organizing pneumonia, pulm... Read More

Testing the Use of Targeted Treatment (AMG 510) for KRAS G12C Mutated Advanced Non-squamous Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (A Lung-MAP Treatment Trial)
Recruiting
This phase II Lung-MAP treatment trial studies the effect of AMG 510 in treating non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer that is stage IV or has come back (recurrent) and has a specific mutation in the KRAS gene, known as KRAS G12C. Mutations in this gene may cause the cancer to grow. AMG 510, a targeted treatment against the KRAS G12C mutation, may help stop the growth of tumor cells.
