An Open-label, Phase I Dose Escalation and Phase 2 Dose Expansion Study to Assess Safety, Tolerability, Preliminary Antitumor Activity of SMP 3124LP in Adults with Advanced Solid Tumors Read Less

This is an open-label, phase 1, dose escalation and dose expansion study to determine safety and tolerability, and to determine the maximum tolerated dose and / or recommended phase 2 dose of LNCB74 in participants with advanced solid tumors. Read Less

To learn about the safety of a procedure called cord dose escalated spine stereotactic radiosurgery (CDE-SSRS) in patients with MESCC. Read Less

To develop a database of medical information about patients with MLA in an effort to increase our understanding of the characteristics of MLA, which is the rarest form of endometrial carcinoma. Read Less

In a previous clinical trial in China and the United States (US), the investigators developed and validated a mobile, high-resolution microendoscope (mHRME) for screening and surveillance of esophageal squamous cell neoplasia (ESCN). The trial revealed higher specificity for qualitative (visual) interpretation by experts but not the novice and in the surveillance arm (100% vs. 19%, p \<0.05). In the screening arm, diagnostic yield (neoplastic biopsies/total biopsies) increased 3.6 times (8 to 29%); 16% of patients were correctly spared any biopsy, and 18% had a change in clinical plan. In a pilot study in Brazil, the investigators tested a software-assisted mHRME with deep-learning software algorithms to aid in the detection of neoplastic images and determine the performance, efficiency, and impact of the AI-mHRME when to Lugol's chromoendoscopy (LCE) alone and when using AI-mHRME with LCE. In this clinical trial, the investigators will build on the Brazil pilot trial data to optimize an artificial intelligence (AI) mHRME and evaluate its clinical impact and implementation potential in ethnically and socioeconomically diverse populations in the US and Brazil.

This is an observational prescreening study. Individuals who are eligible for prescreening will undergo testing procedures that may be used to determine eligibility in ACDN-01 clinical trials. Read Less

This is a Phase 1b study to assess the safety, tolerability, PK, and PD of investigational phage therapy (IP) in adults with SCI and bladder colonization (ASB). It is a single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in adults with SCI with neurogenic bladders and bacteriuria who use indwelling catheters, or who require intermittent catheterization for bladder drainage.

We will recruit 10 patients with OCD meeting established criteria for surgical evaluation. Following informed consent and baseline evaluations, each will be implanted with permanent DBS SenSight leads and the Medtronic Percept RC IPG, which has on-device neural recording capability and rechargeability. We will collect a broad array of neurobehavioral data across two environments with complementary advantages: the clinic and the home. The first 2 Aims test our mechanistic hypothesis by studying the pattern of VS neural activity in the controlled environment of the lab/clinic during two complementary paradigms: one based on a psychophysical behavioral task, the other based on ERP, a therapeutic behavioral intervention. The third aim tests this hypothesis in an ambulatory, naturalistic setting with chronic neural on-device recordings paired with time resolved behavioral measures. We will investigate a possible common neural basis underlying approach and avoidance across these 3 paradigms. Subjects will participate in research at 7 critical timepoints during routine clinic visits (Fig. 4): before implant, 1 day before DBS activation, immediately after DBS activation, 2 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months after DBS initiation. At these timepoints, patients will complete clinical assessments, perform the Probabilistic Approach Avoidance Task (PAAT), and conduct exposure trials under the guidance of a psychologist. The clinic offers the most controlled environment and provides opportunities for collecting high temporal resolution behavior synchronized to local field potential (LFP) recordings. These data will allow us to identify the degree of overlap in the time-resolved neural activity driving individual decisions to approach potential rewards or avoid potential aversive stimuli (Aim 1), and resist performing compulsions in order to achieve relief after OCD symptoms are triggered (Aim 2). At home, our goal is to investigate patient trajectories along the approach-avoidance axis as OCD symptoms improve (Aim 3). We will leverage passive, on device recordings that occur in the background of everyday life activities and synchronize these neural recordings with data collected via wearables, ecological assessments, and video diaries. Capturing neural and behavioral data in the home environment is essential for understanding the neural and behavioral changes that occur over longer timescales than individual clinical visits. The neurobehavioral biomarkers generated by this dataset will provide trackable readouts of clinical status that could inform therapeutic decision-making and enable data driven intervention.

Non-healthy eating habits and a lack of exercise contribute to prediabetes and type 2 diabetes (T2D). Evening snacking is linked to abnormal weight gain in adults and healthy adolescents. Most adolescents do not get enough exercise. This study aims to look at the benefits of more exercise and stopping evening snacking in youth with prediabetes. The study lasts 8 weeks, and participants will be randomly assigned to either an intervention group or a standard of care group. Read Less
