This is a Phase 1, open-label, dose-escalation trial using standard 3+3 dose-escalation design in patients with advanced malignant solid tumors. All patients within a given dose level cohort will be treated with the same dose schedule of VG2025, administered as intratumoral injections at Day 1 and Day 15 biweekly at each treatment cycle (monotherapy cohorts 1-4 and combination cohort 1) and on day 1 and either day 2 or day 3 at the first 2 cycles followed by day 1 only at subsequent cycles (combination cohort 2). Dose limiting toxicity (DLT) evaluation period is for 4 weeks, from the start of treatment, Day 1, through Day 28. There are two parts to this study a monotherapy arm and a combination therapy arm. In the monotherapy arm the patients will receive VG2025 only. In the combination therapy arm the patients will receive VG2025 and Nivolumab Read Less

The purpose of this study is to collect normative test values and demographic information for normative and referential data for a rapid, portable, computerized neurocognitive testing device from healthy adults 50 and older. Read Less

Surgical excisions are one of the most frequent cutaneous wounds. This study will compare the safety and preliminary efficacy of a novel fixed-dose combination drug MRG-001 in pre-abdominoplasty surgical excisions and scar appearance in subjects undergoing elective abdominoplasty. Read Less

This study is a pragmatic clinical trial examining the comparative effectiveness of two stimulant medications (methylphenidate and amphetamine) in the treatment of ADHD in children and adolescents with autism. Using a sequential, multiple assignment randomization trial (SMART) design the study will not only assess these two medications but also the role of an increasingly popular class of ADHD medication, the alpha-2 agonists. Findings from this study will help improve clinicians' approach to medication selection and reduce the repeated trials of multiple medications that are current standard care. Read Less

The study's objective is to evaluate the additive value of renal biomarkers (from blood and urine) for identifying individuals at high risk for severe acute kidney injury (AKI) above that of a novel natural language processing (NLP)-based AKI risk algorithm. The risk algorithm is based on electronic health records (EHR) data (labs, vitals, clinical notes, and test reports). Patients will enroll at the University of Chicago Medical Center and the University of Wisconsin Hospital, where the risk score will run in real time. The risk score will identify those patients with the highest risk for the future development of Stage 2 AKI and collect blood and urine for biomarker measurement over the subsequent 3 days.

The overall objective of this proposal is to test version 3.0 of the Arthritis smartphone app in a 12-month interrupted time series analysis (ITSA) design which will allow us to observe possible differences in visit frequency between the pre-and post-intervention periods as well as between the concurrent control group and those who receive the app. Our central hypothesis is that introduction of the app will reduce visit numbers per month in the group receiving the app, compared with a concurrent control group.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of a single and multiple SC dose of BxC-I17e in patients with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis (AD) Read Less

This randomized waitlist control trial will evaluate the effects of a psychoeducational intervention called Resources for Enhancing All Caregivers' Health - Traumatic Brain Injury (REACH TBI) to decrease caregiver strain (primary outcome) and improve caregiver self-efficacy, anxiety, depression, and health care frustrations (secondary outcomes). This study will modify and adapt an award-winning caregiver intervention, Resources for Enhancing All Caregivers Health in the Department of Veterans Affairs (REACH VA), to support the needs of Caregivers of Veterans and Service Members with TBI.

The goal of this open-label, dose escalation and dose expansion Phase I clinical trial is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and preliminary efficacy of BGC515 administered once daily in 3 weeks cycles in solid tumor patients. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to determine whether a sensor device called an Automatic Ingestion Monitor (AIM) that is worn on eyeglasses can be used with a smartphone to change eating behavior. Participants will wear the device for one week of no-intervention observation. They will then test behavioral interventions focused on eating for two weeks. The researchers hypothesize that messages sent to a smartphone that are based on information from the AIM can reduce the amount of food that is eaten and slow eating. Read Less

HYPOTHESIS: Impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and impaired fasting glucose (IFG) have distinct pathophysiologic etiologies. Therefore, therapeutic interventions designed to correct the specific underlying pathogenic abnormalities in IGT and IFG will be required to optimally prevent the progressive beta cell failure and development of overt type 2 diabetes.
