All Clinical Trials

This is an observational study designed to evaluate the safety and clinical outcomes of the MANTA® Vascular Closure Device (VCD) (the MANTA® Device) in TAVR procedures. The study will enroll participants who are undergoing a TAVR procedure. The purpose of this study is to examine and collect data on outcomes of contemporary MANTA® large bore closure in standard of care (SOC) TAVR procedures with on-label use of the MANTA® device including appropriate patient selection and proper vascular access.

The Short-Cut trial is a prospective, investigator-initiated, multicenter, randomized controlled trial that is designed to compare the efficacy of cutting balloon angioplasty vs. intravascular lithotripsy prior to drug-eluting stent implantation in patients with moderate to severely calcified coronary arteries.

The purpose of this study is to test whether a natural product supplement can potentiate the increase in collagen synthesis following the ingestion of collagen protein. The investigators have developed a model of natural (GRAS certified) products that stimulate collagen synthesis, in vitro. The investigators will determine whether the natural product supplement can potentiate the collagen synthetic response to the ingestion of collagen protein. Basal and fed serum will be isolated and these samples will be used to treat human engineered ligaments. Read Less

Veterans are at higher risk than non-Veterans of falling ill with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The investigators have shown that synchronized stimulation over the brain and cervical spinal cord can temporarily strengthen weakened nerve circuits between the brain and hand muscles in people with ALS. The current proposal will take the next step of individualizing this intervention, then applying it repetitively in an attempt to achieve direct clinical benefit on hand strength and function. Following an initial 2-3 month period of optimizing the intervention for each individual, the investigators will compare the effects of two-week programs of paired brain-spinal stimulation with or without hand exercises.

Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) is the most prevalent symptomatic primary immunodeficiency. Respiratory ailments are the most frequent complications of CVID, with chronic pulmonary disease developing in 30-60% and even more experiencing frequent acute respiratory infections. This project aims to establish cutting-edge approaches to study pulmonary biology in CVID and apply novel bioinformatics strategies to study complex interactions among microbes and host cells by direct sampling of the respiratory tract. The central hypothesis for this research is that antibody (Ab) deficiency in CVID alters respiratory microbiota and host interactions to drive pulmonary disease. Read Less

The aim of this protocol is to assess the presence and severity of primary aldosteronism pathophysiology in patients with type 2 diabetes who have, or are at-risk for developing, chronic kidney disease. Read Less

The purpose of this research is to learn if Obinutuzumab is effective and safe in treating patients with fibrillary glomerulonephritis (FGN). Read Less

A First-in-Human 2-part, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single ascending dose, multiple ascending dose, and food effect, investigation of the administration of PORT-77 in healthy adult participants. Read Less

Adults who gain most of their excess weight in the abdominal area typically do not respond to insulin in the same way as lean adults. Researchers are trying to understand why fat tissue responds differently in people with different body types. Read Less

This trial aims at investigating the diagnostic ability of a combined diagnostic panel including systematic endoscopic evaluation (SEE), blood-based ctDNA assay, and urine-based cfDNA assay to predict the presence of residual tumor remaining in the bladder at cystectomy. Patients who are planned for cystectomy due to bladder cancer will be considered for enrollment based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Read Less
