Hospital stays are stressful for the family and friends who care for adults with dementia. Following hospital discharge, adults with dementia often have increased care needs, which places new caregiving demands on their family and friends. Family and friends are critical to ensuring that Veterans with dementia can live safely in the community following discharge. Healthcare systems have an opportunity to support family and friends of adults with dementia by addressing dementia-specific caregiving challenges that arise during the transition from hospital to home. The investigators are comparing two different support programs for family and friends of hospitalized adults with dementia. The two programs are Hospital GamePlan4Care and Caregiver Education. Hospital GamePlan4Care was developed with feedback from people who care for Veterans with dementia. Hospital GamePlan4Care helps caregivers build skills to care for someone with dementia recently discharged from the hospital. It includes a written handbook, online training on the Hospital GamePlan4Care website, and phone calls with a dementia care specialist. The online training is tailored to the caregiver. The Caregiver Education program provides information that helps caregivers care for someone recently hospitalized. It includes a written handbook, recommendations for high-quality online resources, and phone calls with a dementia care specialist. Both programs will start when the adult with dementia is hospitalized. Each program lasts at least three months. To be eligible, the caregiver must care for a Veteran with dementia admitted to the Michael E. DeBakey VA Medical Center in Houston, Texas. Caregivers interested in participating and passing eligibility screening will be enrolled in the study for at least three months. Each enrolled caregiver will have a 50% chance of being enrolled in the Hospital GamePlan4Care group or the Caregiver Education group (like flipping a coin). Both groups will be asked to complete several questionnaires about their needs as a caregiver and their well-being. Questionnaires will be completed at the beginning of the study and one and three months after the Veteran is discharged from the hospital. Each questionnaire should take 30-60 minutes to complete.

This is a prospective, 2-part, multi-center, open-label, non-randomized clinical trial to assess safety and effectiveness of APrevent® VOIS Implants for the treatment of patients with Unilateral Vocal Fold Paralysis (UVFP). In total 30 evaluable patients are planned to be enrolled. Read Less

The intent of this study is to evaluate actionable outputs from TRAQinform Theranostics in a prospective, multi-center, non-interventional clinical study. The primary objective is to investigate intent-to-change treatment decisions after the addition of TRAQinform Theranostics. The exploratory objective is to investigate if treatment efficacy and treatment-related toxicity could be detected by TRAQinform Theranostics following PSMA PET/CT at week 12. Read Less

This phase III trial studies how well domperidone works in treating patients with gastrointestinal disorders. Domperidone may help control chronic gastrointestinal disorders and their symptoms, such as pain, bloating, and nausea and vomiting, by stimulating contraction of the stomach to increase its ability to empty itself of food.

This is a global, multicenter, 2-part study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of selinexor plus ruxolitinib in JAK inhibitor (JAKi) treatment-naïve myelofibrosis (MF) participants. The study will be conducted in two phases: Phase 1 (open-label) and Phase 3 (double-blind). Phase 1 (enrollment completed) was an open-label evaluation of the safety and recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of selinexor in combination with ruxolitinib and included a dose escalation using a standard 3+3 design (Phase 1a) and a dose expansion part (Phase 1b). Phase 3 (ongoing), double-blind, placebo-controlled part of the study comparing the efficacy and safety of combination therapy of selinexor + ruxolitinib with combination of placebo + ruxolitinib.

The goal of this clinical trial is to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the full visual range AT ELANA 841P IOL when used to treat adult patients having cataract surgery. Subjects will be randomly selected to receive a pair of IOLs, either the AT ELANA 841P or CT LUCIA 621P lens design. All patients will undergo surgery in both eyes, and they will receive follow up care for up to 6-months. During this time, all patients will undergo thorough eye exams at every study visit and complete questionnaires about their quality of vision post-surgery. Read Less

This is a Phase 1/2A, open label, multicenter, nonrandomized, multiple dose, safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic study of PF-07220060 administered as a single agent and then in combination with endocrine therapy. The study consists of two parts and a China and Japan monotherapy cohort. Part 1 includes dose escalation cohorts evaluating PF-07220060 as single agent or in combination with endocrine therapy or enzalutamide, as well as a food effect cohort and a DDI cohort Part 2 includes dose expansion cohorts evaluating PF-07220060 in combination with endocrine therapy or enzalutamide. In Part 1A, single escalating doses of PF-07220060 alone will be administered to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and select the recommended dose for expansion In Part 1B and Part 1C, PF-07220060 will be administered in combination with 1 of 2 endocrine therapies (letrozole and fulvestrant, respectively). In Part 1D, food effect assessment of PF-07220060 at the RP2D dose level from the Part 1A will be conducted In Part 1E, the effect of PF-07220060 on the PK of midazolam will be evaluated (DDI) In Part 1F, escalating dosed of PF-07220060 will be administered in combination with enzalutamide Part 1B and Part 1C may commence at MTD or before reaching the MTD at a dose level in Part 1A. Part 2A is a dose expansion cohort with fulvestrant and will explore more than one dose of PF-07220060 in participants diagnosed with mBC. Part 2B and Part 2C are expansion for combination therapy of PF-07220060 with letrozole and fulvestrant, respectively. Part 2D is the expansion cohort for combination therapy of PF-07220060 with enzalutamide. Part 2E is an expansion cohort to evaluate PF-07220060 Monotherapy versus PF-07220060 plus fulvestrant combination therapy. The China monotherapy cohort will evaluate safety, tolerability and PK of PF-07220060 administered as single agent in Chinese participants. The Japan monotherapy cohort will evaluate safety, tolerability and PK of PF-07220060 administered as a single agent in Japanese participants. Read Less

Ovarian cancer is a serious health risk with the highest death rate among gynecological cancers. Unfortunately, it's only possible to definitively diagnose ovarian cancer after surgery, as there are no reliable tests to determine if an ovarian abnormality is cancerous or benign before surgery. Cleo Diagnostics have developed a new test that uses five biomarkers in the blood to better differentiate between benign and malignant ovarian conditions. In initial studies, this test outperformed the current standard test, CA125, in identifying cancer. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the Cleo Diagnostics (CleoDX) Ovarian Adnexal Mass Score Test System. This test measures five analytes in the blood and provides a score indicating the likelihood of cancer in patients with an adnexal mass requiring surgery. The test is designed to assist doctors in making better-informed decisions about surgery and patient care by providing a more accurate pre-surgical assessment of cancer risk. By doing so, it aims to improve patient outcomes and ensure that those with malignant conditions receive the appropriate specialist care. Read Less
