This is a pilot and feasibility study assessing the role of quantitative multiparametric MRI and blood-based biomarkers for the measurement of liver function in patients receiving radiation therapy for liver cancer, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), cholangiocarcinoma, or liver metastases regardless of primary histology, that are undergoing photon radiation either in the de-novo or re-irradiation setting. The goal of this study is to prospectively evaluate the feasibility of using quantitative multiparametric MRI to monitor liver function at baseline and following liver radiation therapy. Read Less

Sub-Study: Phase Triggered Paired Associative Stimulation (PAS) (actively recruiting) Background: -Previous research has shown that the brain s activity changes with changes in brain waves. We can study brain activity with a procedure called transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), a form of non-invasive brain stimulation. EEG allows for measuring ongoing brain waves. The goal of this study is to optimize TMS delivery by utilizing EEG-triggered TMS. Objectives: -To see if changes in brain waves change the brain and body s response to TMS. Eligibility: -Healthy, right-handed adults age 18-35. Design: * Participants will be screened under another protocol with medical history and physical exam. They may take a pregnancy test. They will have a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan of the brain. For MRI, participants lie on a table that slides in and out of a metal tube that takes pictures. with: * Participants will have up to 4 outpatient visits lasting 2-3 hours each (4 outpatient visits). The following procedures may occur at a visit: * Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI): Participants lie on a table that slides into a machine that takes pictures of the brain. * Electroencephalography (EEG): Small electrodes on the scalp record brain waves. * Electromyography (EMG): Small sticky electrodes on the skin measure muscle activity. * Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS): A wire coil is held to the scalp. A brief electrical current passes through the coil and affects brain activity. Main Study: Influence on Plasticity of Brain Temperature (no longer recruiting) Background: - Brain activity changes with changes in body temperature. Brain activity can be studied with a procedure called transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). Researchers want to cool the brain through the scalp using a cooling cap. They want to see if cooling changes the brain and body s response to TMS. Objectives: - To look at the effects of cooling on the brain. Eligibility: - Right-handed adults age 18-50 who can abstain from caffeine and tobacco. Design: * Participants will be screened with medical history and physical exam. They will be asked about alcohol use, smoking, and substance abuse. They may take a pregnancy test. They may have a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan of the brain. For MRI, participants lie on a table that slides in and out of a metal tube that takes pictures. * Participants will have 3 outpatient visits. The following procedures will occur at each visit. * Participants will wear a cooling cap for up to 45 minutes. Cool water will flow through the cap. It will feel like an ice pack in a towel. Their core temperature will be monitored. Their temperature will also be measured under their tongue and on scalp, stomach, forearm, and calf. * Participants will have TMS before and after wearing the cap. A brief electrical current will pass through a wire coil held on their scalp. Electrodes that detect muscle movement will be placed on their hand. They will also have repetitive TMS, which uses repeated magnetic pulses. Their wrist will also receive a shock. Read Less

This neuroimaging study is a clinical trial investigating the effectiveness of intermittent theta-burst transcranial magnetic stimulation (iTBS-TMS) to the inferior parietal lobule (IPL) in reducing suicide risk in patients with major depressive episode (MDE) or borderline personality disorder (BPD).

The main goal of this study is to determine the effects of combination medical therapy (Riociguat and Macitentan) and balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) on hemodynamics and right ventricular (RV) function (including advanced assessments of RV-pulmonary artery (PA) coupling from invasive hemodynamics) in participants with inoperable or post-PTE residual CTEPH.

MI-CARE is an innovative coordinated care team intervention to improve medication adherence and blood pressure derived from research findings that build on existing clinical practice. Designed with an eye toward sustainability, MI-CARE incorporates billable pharmacist and CHW services for patients with low medication adherence and high burdens of chronic illness and preventable consequences. MI-CARE offers interprofessional team care with comprehensive expertise and complementary skill sets that mitigate the silo effect of specialized medicine to deliver primary care to diverse, high-risk populations experiencing disparities in hypertension.

The mission of this project is to increase the detection of Primary Aldosteronism (PA), the most common cause of secondary hypertension, which can either be cured surgically or treated with targeted medications. Read Less

The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effectiveness of a parent-focused child sexual abuse prevention program (Smart Parents) delivered to parents enrolled in a parent education program (Parents as Teachers; PAT). The main questions the trial aims to answer are: 1. Does PAT + Smart Parents improve parents' CSA-related awareness and protective behaviors compared to PAT as usual? 2. Are potential gains maintained 12- and 24-months post intervention? 3. What parent-, provider-, and organizational-level factors hold promise for future dissemination and implementation efforts?

Study ABX1100-1001 is a first-in-human (FIH), phase 1 study to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of a single ascending dose (SAD) and multiple doses (MD) of ABX1100 administered intravenously to healthy participants and patients with LOPD. * Part A features a SAD study with a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized design in NHVs involving 3 cohorts (A1-A3). This Part also includes a single dose, open-labeled cohort (A4) in NHVs which will commence after cohorts A1-3. * Part B is a MD, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized design in NHVs. The MD Part B will commence after completion of Cohorts A1, A2 and A3 in the SAD Part A and SRC review of these 3 cohorts. * Part C opened for enrollment after the Safety Review Committee (SRC) review of safety, PK and PD data from both Part A and Part B. Part C is a MD, open-label design in patients with Late-Onset Pompe Disease. Read Less

This is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter, global clinical study to assess the efficacy and safety of pitolisant in patients living with Prader-Willi syndrome. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of pitolisant in treating excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) in patients ≥6 years of age with Prader-Willi syndrome. Secondary objectives include assessing the impact of pitolisant on: * Irritable and disruptive behaviors * Hyperphagia * Other behavioral problems including social withdrawal, stereotypic behavior, hyperactivity/noncompliance, and inappropriate speech Read Less

The purpose of the study is to refine, finalize, implement, and evaluate a multi-level intervention aimed at increasing enrollment of Black and Hispanic patients to National Cancer Institute (NCI)-sponsored therapeutic clinic trials at Moffitt Cancer Center. Read Less

This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of abemaciclib in combination with 5-fluorouracil and how well it works in treating patients with colorectal cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic) and that has not responded to treatment (refractory). Abemaciclib, a type of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor, blocks certain proteins, which may help keep tumor cells from growing. 5-fluorouracil, a type of antimetabolite, stops cells from making deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and may kill tumor cells. Giving abemaciclib in combination with 5-fluorouracil may be safe, tolerable, and/or effective in treating patients with metastatic and refractory colorectal cancer. Read Less

The primary objective is to evaluate the effects of IMVT-1402 compared to placebo, as measured by the American College of Rheumatology 20% (ACR20) response. Read Less
