Telephone-based Physical Activity Coaching or Self Monitored Physical Activity to Improve Physical Function in Older Adults Who Are Undergoing Surgery for Lung Cancer and Their Caregivers
NCT06196008
Recruiting
This clinical trial compares telephone-based physical activity coaching to self monitored physical activity for improving physical function in older adults who are undergoing surgery for lung cancer and their caregivers. Lung cancer surgery in older adults is associated with functional declines and unique challenges. Performing physical activity around the time of surgery has been shown to improve functional outcomes in patients and exercise programs delivered via telehealth may improve access a... Read More

Short Course Vaginal Cuff Brachytherapy in Treating Participants With Stage I-II Endometrial Cancer
NCT03422198
Recruiting
This randomized phase III trial studies short course vaginal cuff brachytherapy to see how well it works compared with standard of care vaginal cuff brachytherapy in treating participants with stage I-II endometrial cancer. Short course vaginal cuff brachytherapy, also known as internal radiation therapy, uses (over a shorter period) radioactive material placed directly into or near a tumor in the upper portion of the vagina to kill tumor cells. After completion of cohort 1 (108 participants),... Read More

First-in-Human Assessment of Safety, Biodistribution and Pharmacokinetics of 18F-Fluoro-1-Naphthol (18F-4FN) for PET Imaging
NCT05335811
Recruiting
18F-4FN represents a novel PET agent for imaging inflammation. Acute inflammatory signaling through the TLR axis recruits neutrophils and macrophages to inflammatory sites. Both cells activate the production of high energy reactive oxygen species/reactive nitrogen species (RONS), setting off a cascade that can be leveraged to detect the presence of these inflammatory cells by molecular imaging. 18F-4FN is efficiently oxidized by high energy RONS, leading to retention and accumulation in human ne...

Cost Effectiveness in Alveolar Bone Grafting in Patients with Cleft Lip and Palate
NCT04234971
Recruiting
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate if the use of Bone Morphogenic Protein(BMP)/Demineralized Bone Matrix (DBM) versus the use of autologous Iliac Crest Bone Graft (ICBG) will result in an increase in total cost effectiveness for patients undergoing alveolar bone graft (ABG) for Cleft Lip and Palate (CLP) and to see if patients who are treated with DBM/BMP will have reduced post-operative pain scores,reduced operative times,and similar rates of bone healing compared to conventional ICBG.
