All Clinical Trials

The combination of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and electroencephalography (EEG) has been suggested as a promising brain imaging tool for identifying biomarkers of brain health. In this pilot study, study investigators will explore the neurophysiological metrics of brain health with a non-invasive brain imaging technique, alongside behavioral and fMRI metrics collected through another study (NCT04869111).

The pilot study of Project BADGE will focus on emergency department (ED) patients with diabetes, which has significant disparities in prevalence and mortality for underserved populations. The objective is to determine the effect of a text-based resource referral platform with diabetes educational materials on patient diabetes knowledge, diabetes distress, diabetes self-care activities, and acceptability and feasibility of the intervention.

The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the safety and tolerability of a single oral dose of BMN 349 in participants with PiZZ or PiMZ/MASH. Primary outcome measures include incidence of any adverse events (including serious adverse events, dose limit toxicities, and adverse events of special interest), incidence of any laboratory test abnormalities, incidence of lung function test abnormalities and 12-lead ECG parameters. Participants will receive a single dose of either BMN 349 or placebo and then monitored for safety and tolerability. Read Less

This study will address the significant yet often overlooked problem of HIV among cisgender women. To do this, researchers will adapt and test a multilingual technology-based strategy supporting informed decision-making for PrEP in primary care. Specifically, researchers will use the electronic health record to securely send women multimedia educational materials in English or Spanish about PrEP, and facilitate electronic scheduling of PrEP visits - if women decide they are interested. Choice is critical. Read Less

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if metal detoxification (with calcium disodium edetate \[Ca-EDTA\] and dimercaptosuccinic acid \[DMSA\]) during standard therapy can help improve outcomes in patients with intermediate-risk, high-risk, or secondary AML compared to standard therapy alone. Researchers think lowering the level of metals found in the blood/bone marrow may help to control the disease and/or improve the response to chemotherapy. Read Less

The objective of this study is to determine the effects of a 6-month, home-based personalized transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) intervention targeting the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex on cognitive function, dual task standing and walking, and other metrics of mobility in older adults with motoric cognitive risk syndrome (MCR).

The purpose of this study is to determine if zigakibart is safe and effective for long-term use in patients with immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN). This is an extension study for patients who have already completed an another zigakibart study. Read Less

Patients will complete a survey before and after watching the WashU DIEP Flap Video at their pre-operative standard of care visit, and a third survey at their post-operative standard of care visit. These surveys will use questions from SILS, APAIS, PEMAT, and AIM/IAM to assess the patient's health literacy, demographics questions, and questions concerning patient understanding and anxiety surrounding the procedure. The purpose of the post-op survey will be to assess how well the video set expectations of the procedure and recovery process and will repeat questions asked pre-operatively. Survey responses will be analyzed to determine if there are beneficial trends and improvement in patient understanding and anxiety due to adjunct video usage. Primary Objective: The primary aim of the study is to determine if our animated video affects understanding and anxiety survey scores in patients undergoing DIEP breast reconstruction. Read Less

This phase I/II trial tests the safety and effectiveness of inulin gel in combination with ipilimumab and nivolumab in treating patients with kidney cell cancer (renal cell carcinoma \[RCC\]) that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic) or has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced). Inulin is a common food additive fermentable prebiotic fiber beneficial for a healthy gut microbiome. The microbiome is the collection of all microbes, such as bacteria, fungi, viruses, and their genes, that naturally live on and inside the body. Inulin may also be used for cancer prevention and heart health, but there is less evidence to support those uses. The gut microbiome profile may improve the effectiveness of drugs called immune checkpoint inhibitors, such as ipilimumab and nivolumab. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as ipilimumab and nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving inulin gel in combination with ipilimumab and nivolumab may be safe and effective in treating in patients with metastatic or locally advanced RCC. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to the 6-month Venous Thromboembolism (VTE)-free rate in participants with advanced germ cell cancer at high risk of VTE who are receiving standard of care cisplatin-based chemotherapy and low-dose acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) and compare to relevant historical controls Read Less

This study evaluates the feasibility and safety of a novel method for comparing the effectiveness of hypofractionated versus hyperfractionated radiation therapy in participants with relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (R/R DLBCL) undergoing T-cell redirection therapies (CAR T-cell therapy or bispecific antibodies).

* Study Purpose: The purpose of the study is to compare changes in activity levels and walking in people with Parkinson disease after an 8-week independent walking program with or without using walking poles. * Major parts of the Study: Before the walking program: You will wear an activity sensor on your upper leg for one week to track activity levels. Measurements will be taken of you while you are walking. If you are placed in the walking pole group, you will be trained on how to use walking poles. Independent walking program: You will be asked to walk at least 3 times each week for 8 weeks and keep a log of your walking. If you are in the walking pole group, you will walk with the poles. After the walking program: Your walking measurements will be collected as before the walking program. You will wear an activity sensor for one week. Read Less
