The objective of this study is to optimize a novel, audio-recorded physical activity intervention that is scalable. Using principles of the Multiphase Optimization Strategy (MOST) framework, a full factorial study will test the unique and combined effects of different intervention components to identify which combination of components is optimal for increasing physical activity and mechanisms by which the components are or are not effective. This information will inform decisions about an optimal intervention package that is effective, efficient, and minimizes participant burden. Read Less

This will be a single center, retrospective, before-and-after, chart review of all patients undergoing TTM between June 1, 2017 and May 31, 2021 at MDMC. Initiation of the new TTM protocol occurred on April 22, 2019. Read Less

The primary objective of the Phase 1 part of the study is to determine the recommended dose of APVO436 administered intravenously to patients with AML or MDS. The primary objective of the Phase 1b part of the study is to evaluate the clinical activity of APVO436 in patients with AML or MDS. APVO436 is being studied in this Phase 1b, open-label, multi-center, two-part dose-escalation/dose expansion study to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD), and clinical activity of APVO436 in patients with AML and MDS. The study will be conducted in 2 parts. The first part of this Phase 1B study is an open-label, multiple dose ascending dose escalation phase to determine the recommended dose (RP2D) level of APVO436 for future Phase 2 studies. The goal of the dose expansion phase of the study (Part 2) is to (i) evaluate the safety and tolerability of APVO436 at the RP2D level when it is used as an adjunct to the standard of care and (ii) obtain a preliminary assessment of the anti-leukemia activity of APVO436-containing experimental monotherapy and combination therapy modalities. Study Objectives for Dose Escalation Phase Primary Objectives are to: Determine the RP2D level of APVO436 administered intravenously (IV) in patients with AML or MDS, and Evaluate the safety and tolerability of APVO436 at the RP2D level when it is used as an adjunct to the standard of care and obtain a preliminary assessment of the anti-leukemia activity of APVO436-containing experimental monotherapy and combination therapy modalities. Secondary Objectives are to: Define the safety profile and immunogenicity of APVO436; to determine the PK/PD of APVO436; to evaluate the clinical activity of APVO436 in AML and MDS patients. Further evaluate the safety profile and immunogenicity of APVO436 and the PK/PD of APVO436 and the relationship between PK/PD and clinical response. Study Objectives for Dose Expansion Phase Primary Objective is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of APVO436 at the RP2D level when it is used as an adjunct to the standard of care. Secondary Objective is to obtain a preliminary assessment of the anti-leukemia activity of APVO436-containing experimental monotherapy and combination therapy modalities. Read Less

We believe that subtotal cholecystectomy is a safe alternative to total cholecystectomy when the complicated gallbladder is encountered, resulting in decreased or equivalent risk of bile duct injury, major vascular injury, postoperative hemorrhage, infectious complications, and mortality. Additionally, we hope to further elucidate the expected outcomes of the varying subtypes of subtotal cholecystectomy in order to determine the safest approach, assuring the lowest need for secondary intervention, recurrent biliary disease, or need for a completion cholecystectomy.

This clinical trial is an open label Phase II study of the combination of intravenously administered SGT-53 and gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer. The objective of the study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, toxicity and efficacy (specifically Progression Free Survival at 5.5 month (PFS5.5mos)) of this combination therapy. Read Less

Primary Objective: The primary objective of this study is to develop and validate a clinical risk index score for identifying NSTIs in emergency general surgery patients being evaluated for a severe skin and soft tissue infection. Secondary Objectives: To describe the contemporary microbiology of NSTIs and explore the effects on outcomes and to identify predictors of amputation and mortality. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of a multi-gene panel to determine which subjects are likely to respond to renal denervation therapy with Medtronic's Symplicity Spyral™ multi-electrode renal denervation system. Read Less

Many patients with blockages in the arteries in their legs (peripheral arterial disease, "PAD") suffer from pain in their legs when walking. Exercise therapy is known to decrease pain levels as well as increase the distance that patients with PAD can walk. The purpose of this study is to understand whether home exercise using a digital exercise monitoring system (LIVMOR) with provider supervision/ feedback will improve walking distance compared to those undergoing home exercise using the same monitoring system but without provider supervision/ feedback.

The MIDAS study aims to follow LAM patients who are currently taking, have previously failed or been intolerant of, or may (at some time in the future) take mTOR inhibitors (sirolimus or everolimus) as part of their clinical care. Adult female TSC patients may also enroll, with or without lung cysts. Read Less

Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS®) pathways have been shown to considerably reduce complications, length of stay and costs after most of surgical procedures by standardised application of best evidence-based perioperative care. Recently an international panel of expert have succeeded to elaborate dedicated recommendations for cytoreductive surgery (CRS) ± hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in a two-part series of guidelines based on expert consensus (Hübner et al., EJSO, 2020). The aim of this prospective validation study was therefore to study acceptance, feasibility and clinical results of these guidelines in clinical practice. Hypothesis of the study: Introduction of ERAS® guidelines is feasible and safe. Increasing compliance with ERAS® guidelines (after implementation) will improve recovery and early clinical outcomes of patients undergoing CRS/HIPEC. Read Less
