All Clinical Trials

After a right brain stroke, \>50% of Veterans experience problems with dressing, eating, self-care or steering their wheelchairs because their ability to move, orient, and respond toward the left side is limited: spatial neglect. Spatial neglect prevents them from functioning independently, and their needs in the hospital and at home are greatly increased. An effective treatment for spatial neglect is 10 days of visuomotor training while wearing optical prisms (PAT), however many clinicians \[fail to diagnose spatial neglect and use this approach. In this study, the investigators will develop a brain scanning test that could objectively identify the Veterans with spatial neglect after stroke who are the best candidates to receive PAT and recover their ability to function. When the research is complete, the investigators expect that brain scans done in the hospital can guide the team to refer Veterans to PAT rehabilitation: improving daily life function\] and quality of life.

The purpose of this registry is to compile information on patients who are receiving FDA-approved anti-amyloid mAbs in the course of their clinic visits in the Emory Cognitive Neurology Clinic and in Georgia Memory Net Memory Assessment Clinics. Read Less

Combination therapy of finerenone plus empagliflozin will be compared to usual care to determine the efficacy and safety of treatment in patients hospitalized with heart failure. Read Less

Finerenone will be compared to placebo to determine efficacy and safety of treatment in patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) who are intolerant or ineligible to receive treatment with steroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (sMRA). Read Less

Despite medical and surgical advances, long-term survival in liver transplant (LT) recipients is compromised by an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) after transplant, the mechanisms of which are still not fully understood. TMAO is an attractive therapeutic target to improve vascular health and diastolic function toward preventing CVD in LT patients. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to better understand the role of TMAO in cardiovascular dysfunction patients with chronic kidney disease. Read Less

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the acceptability and efficacy of Go Move, a mobile website developed to assist youth with unilateral cerebral palsy and their caregivers with setting goals and selecting exercises and activities to meet the goals. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: * Is Go Move accepted by youth with unilateral cerebral palsy and their caregivers? * Does Go Move support goal attainment for youth with unilateral cerebral palsy? Participants will set up and participate in a goal-driven home program using the Go Move mobile website. Participants will spend 1 hour and 15 minutes per week for 6 weeks working on their home program and will complete pre-intervention and post-intervention assessments. Read Less

The goal of this study is to test A2B694, an autologous logic-gated Tmod™ CAR T-cell product in subjects with solid tumors including colorectal cancer (CRC), pancreatic cancer (PANC), non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), ovarian cancer (OVCA), mesothelioma (MESO), and other solid tumors that express MSLN and have lost HLA-A\*02 expression. The main questions this study aims to answer are: Phase 1: What is the recommended dose of A2B694 that is safe for patients Phase 2: Does the recommended dose of A2B694 kill the solid tumor cells and protect the patient's healthy cells Participants will be required to perform study procedures and assessments, and will also receive the following study treatments: Enrollment and Apheresis in BASECAMP-1 (NCT04981119) Preconditioning Lymphodepletion (PCLD) Regimen A2B694 Tmod CAR T cells at the assigned dose Read Less

This phase II clinical trial tests how well the cytomegalovirus-modified vaccinica Ankara (CMV-MVA) Triplex vaccine given to human leukocyte antigens (HLA) matched related stem cell donors works to prevent cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection in patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplant. The CMV-MVA Triplex vaccine works by causing an immune response in the donors body to the CMV virus, creating immunity to it. The donor then passes that immunity on to the patient upon receiving the stem cell transplant. Giving the CMV-MVA triplex vaccine to donors may help prevent CMV infection of patients undergoing stem cell transplantation. Read Less

The primary objective of this study is to determine whether extended-release MF (in addition to standard of care (S-o-C)) is superior to placebo in reducing podocyte injury and promoting podocyte survival by 6-months in Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). Read Less

The study team will conduct a two-group study to examine the efficacy of implementing an enhanced microenterprise intervention to improve economic stability and HIV preventive behaviors. The team will enroll approximately 780 young adults. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups. The first group ("control") will receive text messages with information on job openings. The second group ("intervention") will receive text messages with information on job openings plus HIV prevention and employment educational sessions, mentorship, a micro-grant, and HIV behavioral economics text messages.

The long-term objective of this study is to test whether the addition of SGLT2 inhibitors to usual care during acute heart failure management in patients who develop kidney injury shortens the time to achieving symptomatic improvement and kidney function recovery. The study aims to assess feasibility and acceptability of such a randomized clinical trial. Read Less

The goal of this study is to evaluate patient perception and preference in physician attire. Eligible subjects admitted to medical-surgical hospital unit will complete a survey expressing perceptions and preference regarding physician attire. Read Less
