This is a clinical evaluation to assess the effectiveness of cryospray therapy used in addition to current standard of care endoscopic therapies in preventing short term recurrent airway stenosis with a multicentric outcome evaluation. The investigators hypothesize that the addition of SCT to standard endoscopic treatment of benign airway stenosis will result in decreased stenosis recurrence at 6 months as estimated by quantitative radiologic assessment of the stenotic volume.

This prospective, blinded, single-arm study aims to test the performance of nanomechanical phenotype in predicting tumor type, tumor aggressiveness, and neoadjuvant treatment response compared to the gold standard of histopathological assessment. The study involves patients with suspicious breast lesions who will undergo a breast biopsy procedure indicated by standard of care. The nanomechanical phenotype will be measured on the freshly obtained breast biopsies or tissue from breast surgeries. Read Less

Lumbosacral spinal stenosis (LSS) is a leading cause of limited mobility, reduced independence, and poor health outcomes in older adults, and is very common in older adult Veterans. Several years ago, major research studies indicated that surgery for LSS was more effective than usual (medical) management. Nonetheless, there are many patients for whom surgery is not the ideal therapy. There have been reports that modifications in daily activities including temporary use of a modified rolling walker and changes in sleep positioning may help relieve LSS. The investigators have assembled a VA team to study this carefully. The investigators will recruit a small group of older adult Veterans with LSS to try out this program; the investigators will monitor them closely for relief of their symptoms and improvements in walking. The investigators will, as part of this small study, try to understand potential barriers to use of this therapy. The investigators will interview the Veterans and healthcare providers to identify problems that may arise in trying this therapy. If this small study works, the investigators plan to expand the effort. Read Less

Hepatorenal syndrome (HRS) is a common cause of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with liver disease \[1\]. Increased activity and presence of vasodilators such as nitric oxide in cirrhotic patients leads to vasodilation, especially in the splanchnic circulation, resulting in hemodynamic changes that precipitate renal injury \[1\]. Patients may present with elevated serum creatinine (Cr), benign urine sediment, and low urine sodium \[1\]. Read Less

This is an observational long-term follow-up (LTFU) study for subjects who previously received zamtocabtagene autoleucel, known as MB-CART2019.1. Read Less

This is an open label, Phase 1, dose escalation trial evaluating the safety of oncolytic adenovirus TILT-123 in combination with Pembrolizumab in patients with immune checkpoint inhibitor refractory non-small cell lung cancer. Read Less

Open-loop electrical stimulation has been found to reduce spike activity and seizures, but determining the optimal parameters to achieve these effects requires a brute force trial-and-error approach that relies on subjective physician discretion. We will compare the performance of stimulation parameters identified in rodent models to the recommended parameters for neuromodulation used in clinical practice. Read Less

This study will evaluate the Pain Identification and Communication Toolkit (PICT), a multicomponent intervention for caregivers of people with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD). PICT provides training in observational pain assessment and coaching in effective pain communication techniques. It will recruit participants from programs of all-inclusive care for the elderly (PACE) and partnering health care clinics. The investigators hypothesize that PICT will help caregivers to recognize and communicate about pain in their care recipients. Read Less

The PK Papyrus Covered Coronary Stent System is a coronary stent being used at Methodist Dallas Medical Center for patients with coronary perforations. Read Less

To evaluate bone healing at 4 months after lateral sinus augmentation with a 4:1 ratio of autologous bone and xenograft or xenograft alone. A radiographic volumetric, histomorphometric, and histologic analysis. Read Less

The goal of this clinical trial is to study the impact of Dyanavel on co-occuring fatigue in adults with Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder. The main question it aims to answer is whether Dyanavel XR leads to a statistically significant reduction in fatigue compared to placebo, as measured by the Fatigue Symptom Inventory. Read Less

This is a single-arm, interventional, pilot clinical trial. Fifteen evaluable patients will have tumor-informed ctDNA testing at baseline and start botensilimab and balstilimab treatment. They will receive botensilimab and balstilimab in 6-week cycles until progression, after which mFOLFOX6 and bevacizumab or panitumumab will be added to the regimen. Subjects will have safety testing at baseline and every two weeks while on study drug. Study treatment with botensilimab and balstilimab, mFOLFOX6, and bevacizumab or panitumumab will be continued until radiographic or clinical progression, toxicity, or patient withdrawal. Subjects will have one safety follow up visit 30 days after the last treatment and will be followed for survival every 12 weeks for up to 2 years. Read Less
