All Clinical Trials

1000 participants from up to 25 international locations who are at least 50 years old with either healthy eyes or a diagnosis of Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) will be consented to provide images of their eyes for a new dataset. This dataset is an important step in developing an Artificial Intelligence (AI) based screening tool for AMD. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of atacicept in adult and adolescent participants and to measure the effect in reducing proteinuria and preserving renal function. Read Less

This study engages youth as health advocates to increase cancer screening in their community. The study will evaluate the effectiveness of a youth-led intervention on cancer screening awareness in adults who are overdue for cancer screening. Read Less

The experiment will be conducted with 15 chronic stroke survivors and 15 control subjects. Subjects will perform extension movements of the index finger of their more-impaired (stroke) or nondominant (control) hand under two different assistance types: end-effector assistance and exotendon assistance. For each assistance type, unassisted movements will be performed before and after the assistance. Subjects will be randomly assigned into two groups (A and B), who will receive the assistance in a different order. The finger movements and muscle activation patterns will be recorded during movements. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the comparative effectiveness of two different informatics-enabled implementation strategies on increasing tobacco treatment and improving smoking cessation rates for cancer control and prevention. This will be done via a two-arm pragmatic cluster randomized trial (CRT) to test the effectiveness of nudges to change (ELEVATE-S) vs. quit-focused usual care (ELEVATE) in increasing tobacco treatment (use of medication, brief advice, or referral to external counseling) and smoking cessation.

The goal of this open-label dose escalation and expansion study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of NKT5097 in adults with advanced/metastatic tumors (emphasis on breast cancer and solid tumors with CCNE1 amplification). Main questions to answer include: * What is the recommended dose for expansion and/or Phase 2 * What medical issues/symptoms do participants experience when taking NKT5097 Read Less

The goal of this study is to learn what happens to enlicitide in a person's body over time when enlicitide is taken at the same time as coffee or tea. Researchers will measure the amount of enlicitide in the blood when taken with coffee or tea compared with enlicitide taken with water. Read Less

This study will assess the adverse events and how oral ABBV-932 moves through the body when given with oral Itraconazole in healthy Adults participants. Read Less

The objective of this research study is to implement and evaluate a food pantry pilot program to improve access to food and overall diet quality in East Flatbush. This will be achieved through the implementation of a tailored, client-choice food pantry pilot program. The pilot program will specifically offer locally grown produce. Read Less

Keratosis pilaris (KP) is a very common skin condition that affects up to 80% of adolescents and 40% of adults. Clinically, KP causes rough dry patches and tiny spiny bumps around the hair follicles, as well as redness and pigmentation changes, most often on the upper arms, thighs, cheeks, or buttocks. While KP is benign, it can be cosmetically very bothersome. Currently, treatment options for KP are limited, and consist of topical moisturizers and keratolytic agents, but often leads to suboptimal improvements. In literature, many laser treatment modalities for KP have been studied, with varying results. The primary aim of this pilot study is to investigate how KP, a predominantly follicular disorder, responds to treatment with the 1927-nm Thulium laser. Read Less

This study compares consumer movement trackers to the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status (PS) in monitoring cancer patient movement. The ECOG PS emphasizes a patient's ambulatory status (ability to walk around), and scores patients on a scale of 0-5: 0 (no restrictions), 1 (ambulatory), 2 (\< 50% of hours spent in bed, unable to carry out work activities), 3 (\> 50% of hours spent in bed, limited in self care), 4 (bedbound and gravely disabled) and 5 (deceased). Accurate assessment of a patient's PS is paramount in informing therapeutic decision-making, whether it be to predict response and tolerability to treatment or determine eligibility for clinical trials. However, the ECOG PS scale is observational, and therefore limited in its precision. Information gained in this study may help researchers learn if there is a better way to assess patient movement with computerized analysis tools using movement trackers. Read Less

This study is evaluating the levels of calprotectin, a protein found in stool, in healthy adults. Calprotectin is a marker of inflammation in the intestines and can help doctors tell the difference between inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), like Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis, and non-inflammatory conditions like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). In this study, healthy volunteers aged 22 and older will collect a stool sample at home using a simple kit and mail it to the study site. The samples will be tested using a new laboratory method called the ALPCO Calprotectin CLIA assay. The goal is to confirm what level of calprotectin is considered "normal" in people without intestinal disease. Participation involves just one stool sample, and there are no medical procedures. Volunteers will be compensated for their time. The study will help improve how doctors interpret calprotectin test results in clinical settings. Read Less
