The purpose of this clinical study is to compare how well two different devices for achieving hemostasis perform in patients undergoing transfemoral procedures with 6 French Access. Both devices are approved by the FDA for this use, and have already been used by clinicians on patients undergoing transfemoral procedures. It is believed that the use of both devices in combination compared to the Perclose alone will shorten the time that it takes to 'seal' the artery, resulting in a shorter period of time that patients would need to lay flat.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), one of the leading causes of death in the US, disproportionately affects low socioeconomic communities. While few interventions effectively modify the course of COPD and improve outcomes, pulmonary rehabilitation is the one notable exception. However, implementation of this resource-intensive program in real-life settings, and in particular, for underserved communities, has proven to be challenging. Safety-net centers that serve primarily under-insured populations lack financial resources to provide pulmonary rehabilitation. The 10-week COPD Wellness and Plus+ Program directly addresses this gap, and yet, programs like these do not automatically lead to improved outcomes, which leads to the implementation of a Health Advocates program to address participant's social needs and barriers to healthcare.

GEn1E-1124-002 is a two-part Phase 2 study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of GEn-1124 in subjects with ARDS. Treatment with IV infusion dosing as early as possible after ARDS diagnosis. Subjects will be given a second dose approximately 8 hours after the first dose and will continue with twice daily dosing (BID regimen) for 5 days. Read Less

The investigators propose a pilot crossover trial of 2 behavioral language treatments, with randomized order of treatments and blinded assessors, to determine if a therapy designed to stimulate right hemisphere functions (Producing Increasingly Complex Themes Using Right-hemisphere Engagement Implemented with Telemedicine - PICTURE IT; described below) is more effective in improving discourse than a published computer delivered lexical treatment (shown previously to improve naming) in subacute post-stroke aphasia.

SLC-391 is a novel, potent and specific small molecule inhibitor of receptor tyrosine kinase AXL with desirable potency and pharmaceutical properties. The study is being done to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of SLC-391 in combination with pembrolizumab in participants with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Each treatment cycle lasts 21 days. Participants will swallow SLC-391 pills two times every day. Participants will get pembrolizumab intravenously (IV) from the study site staff on the first day of every cycle. This study has 2 parts. The first part will determine the recommended dose of SLC-391 in combination with pembrolizumab. The second part wants to find out if the combination of SLC-391 and pembrolizumab can help stop NSCLC tumours from growing or spreading. Read Less

This phase II trial tests how well tafasitamab, lenalidomide and venetoclax work in treating patients with mantle cell lymphoma that has come back (after a period of improvement) (relapsed) or that has not responded to previous treatment (refractory). Tafasitamab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Lenalidomide is in a class of medications called immunomodulatory agents. It works by helping the immune system kill cancer cells. Venetoclax is in a class of medications called B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2) inhibitors. It may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking Bcl-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. Giving tafasitamab, lenalidomide and venetoclax together may kill cancer cells more efficiently in patients with relapsed or refractory mantle cell lymphoma. Read Less

The goal of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of orally taken probiotic (R-2487) in patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis. Patients will take an oral dosage of probiotic (R-2487) and physicians will assess and measure their Rheumatoid Arthritis. Blood and fecal evaluations of inflammation and assessment of probiotic (R-2487) on fecal level will also be measured. Read Less

The purpose of this pilot study is to gather preliminary data on the (1) contribution of the understudied drug metabolizing enzyme, UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) 2B17, to the metabolism of a widely used medication, diclofenac, and (2) impact of the UGT2B17 inhibitor and natural product, curcumin, on diclofenac pharmacokinetics. Results will inform future studies aimed to assess the effects of UGT2B17 genetic polymorphisms and co-consumed xenobiotics on the pharmacokinetics and toxicity risk of diclofenac and other UGT2B17 drug substrates.

This is a randomized, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of two dose levels (2.5 mL and 5.0 mL) of Bludigo™ (indigotindisulfonate Sodium Injection, USP) 0.8% when used as an aid in the determination of ureteral patency. Subjects scheduled for a surgical procedure in which the patency of the ureter must be assessed by cystoscopy following the procedure, age 18 to 85 years inclusive, will be screened for participation. Screening will occur within 30 days before study drug administration (Day of Surgery). After signing the informed consent, review of inclusion and exclusion criteria will be performed, the collection of concomitant medications, medical history, physical examination, baseline laboratory testing, 12-lead ECG, and vital sign measurements will be completed during the screening visit. On the day of surgery (Day 1) subjects will be evaluated for eligibility for randomization. Eligible subjects will be stratified by BMI (\<30.0 kg/m2or ≥ 30.0 kg/m2) and randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive a dose of either Bludigo™ high dose (5.0 mL) or Bludigo™ low dose (2.5 mL). Each randomized subject will serve as his/her own control (i.e., intra-patient controlled) by receiving a dose of normal saline prior to receiving the randomized Bludigo™ dose. All treated subjects will have a follow-up visit 7 to 30 days (± 2 days) after the procedure. A final telephone follow-up call will occur on Day 30 (± 2 days) in subjects who have the follow-up visit before Day 28. Safety assessments will include monitoring of AEs during and post the procedure, clinical laboratory tests, 12-Lead ECG, and vital sign measurements. Read Less

This study will test a portable virtual reality (VR) system with integrated eye tracking called Virtual Eye Rotation Vision Exercises (VERVE). The proposed VERVE platform will deliver vergence therapy in an automated manner. This research will involve 30 non-traumatic brain injury (TBI) binocularly normal (BNC) Veterans and 50 post-traumatic convergence insufficiency (PTCI) Veterans who will undergo Active and Sham therapy (equally divided groups) to determine the effectiveness of VERVE vergence therapy.

This phase II trial tests how well retifanlimab with bevacizumab and hypofractionated radiotherapy, compared to bevacizumab and hypofractionated radiotherapy alone, works in treating patients with glioblastoma that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). A monoclonal antibody is a type of protein that can bind to certain targets in the body, such as molecules that cause the body to make an immune response (antigens). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as retifanlimab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Bevacizumab is in a class of medications called antiangiogenic agents. It works by stopping the formation of blood vessels that bring oxygen and nutrients to tumor. This may slow the growth and spread of tumor. Hypofractionated radiation therapy delivers higher doses of radiation therapy over a shorter period of time and may kill more tumor cells and have fewer side effects. Giving retifanlimab with bevacizumab and hypofractionated radiotherapy may work better in treating patients with recurrent glioblastoma than bevacizumab and hypofractionated radiotherapy alone.
