Houston, TX Paid Clinical Trials

This study evaluates either KRT-232 or TL-895 in treatment naïve patients with myelofibrosis (MF) The study will be conducted in 2 stages. Stage 1 will evaluate safety, tolerability, and efficacy of either KRT-232 (Arm 1) or TL-895 (Arm 2) in treatment naïve patients. Stage 2 will expand enrollment in Arm 1 and/or Arm 2 if expansion criteria is met. Read Less

This is a phase 1b/2 study of KRT-232 combined with ruxolitinib in subjects with MF who have a suboptimal response after at least 18 weeks of treatment with ruxolitinib. The primary objective of the study is to determine a recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of KRT 232 in combination with ruxolitinib. Read Less

This clinical trial studies the effect of behavioral health support including tele-health in helping surgical patients taper off of prescription opioid pain medications. "Tapering off" means taking dose amounts of medication that get smaller over time, so that less and less of the drug is used until it is not needed anymore. Researchers want to learn how these techniques may improve a patient's ability to lower or avoid dependence on opioid medications after surgery, and if behavioral therapies may improve quality of life, emotional well-being, and functional status around surgery.

The objective of this study is to assess the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of MRG002, as well as the immunogenicity as defined by the incidence of anti-drug antibody (ADA) of MRG002 in patients with HER2-positive advanced solid tumors and locally advanced or metastatic gastric/gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) cancer.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of physical therapy (PT) plus BFR training compared to PT alone (without BFR training) after ACL reconstruction in patients who require extended limited weight bearing through assessment of patient reported outcomes and functional testing. The hypothesis is that PT plus BFR training will mitigate the loss of quadriceps muscle cross-sectional area, strength, and function while also improving early clinical and functional results.

A Phase I Pharmacologic Study of CYC140, a polo-like kinase 1 inhibitor, in Patients with Advanced Leukemias or Myelodysplastic Syndromes Read Less

This phase II trial studies the effect of larotrectinib in treating patients with NTRK gene amplification positive solid tumors that have spread to nearby tissues or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or other places in the body (metastatic). Larotrectinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Read Less

The aim of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of a digital health coaching program for, and to describe quality of life of, individuals in the 6 months following chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy. Up to 50 English-speaking individuals aged 18 and older who are to receive treatment with a CAR T cell therapy will be enrolled, all at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center. Participants must have internet access via smart phone, tablet, a computer, or another device with the capacity to receive calls, texts, or e-mails, as well as the electronic study assessments and will be excluded if they are unable to provide informed consent or have a prognosis of 6 months or less. Consented participants will be enrolled in a 6-month digital health coaching program delivered via weekly calls from a Health Advisor coupled with the digital delivery of content. The program focuses on identification and escalation of treatment-related toxicity, communication with providers, and physical and psychosocial health following treatment. Health related quality of life (HRQoL) will be assessed with the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Lymphoma (FACT-L), health self-efficacy will be assessed by the Cancer Behavior Inventory-Brief (CBI-B), physical and mental health outcomes will be measured by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Global Health 10. Patient experience in managing CAR T specific care will be assessed with a 5-item questionnaire developed specifically for use in this study, focused on participants' confidence in understanding, identifying and managing symptoms, and communicating with providers. Study outcomes will contribute to knowledge about if and how a digital health intervention may be used to support individuals post-CAR T cell therapy. Read Less

RX108 is a novel, potent, small-molecule inhibitor of Na+/K+-ATPase. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and efficacy of RX108 in patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors. Read Less

This is a comparative effectiveness study of two pragmatic models aiming to introduce palliative care for end stage liver disease patients. The 2 comparators are: Model 1: Consultative Palliative Care (i.e. direct access to Palliative Care provider), Model 2: Trained Hepatologist- led PC intervention (i.e. a hepatologist will receive formal training to deliver Palliative Care services) Primary Outcome: The change in quality of life from baseline to 3 months post enrollment as assessed by FACT-Hep (Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy- Hepatobiliary). 14 Clinical Centers across US are recruited to participate in this study.

The purpose of the study is to develop new methods for image processing and enhancement of MRI data. Different setting of acquisition parameters used in conventional clinical MRI protocols will be defined, to create "New Protocols". The specific aim of this study is to assess and to improve the performance of our image processing methods, by comparing diagnostic qualities of images obtained by conventional MRI protocols with those obtained by corresponding New Protocols' and processed by our image enhancement method.
