All Clinical Trials

The purpose of this research study is to better understand the relationship between the type of brain stimulation used and how it changes brain activity in adult military Veterans. The goal is to use this understanding to develop new, personalized brain stimulation. The investigators evaluate brain changes from different types of transcranial magnetic brain stimulation (TMS).

The main objective of this study is: To assess the efficacy and safety of EscharEx (EX-03 5% formulation) compared to placebo control,in debridement and wound bed preparation of Venous Leg Ulcers (VLU). Read Less

The goal of this study is to learn how MK-8527 moves through the healthy person's body over time. Researchers will measure for the amount of MK-8527 in breast milk that the baby will receive at many time points. Read Less

The goal of this pragmatic clinical trial is to learn if it is possible to implement a Primary Hospital Provider (PHP) team that aims to improve continuity of care for patients who are frequently hospitalized. The main question it aims to answer is: Are patients assigned to the PHP team more likely to be assigned to this team during a follow up hospitalization? Researchers will compare this to similar patients assigned to receive usual care. Some participants from both the PHP team and usual care groups will be asked to participate in interviews to help researchers understand the needs of patients who are frequently admitted and the care they receive.

The gut microbiome is made up of the microbes (such as bacteria, viruses, and other organisms too small to see with the naked eye) that live in the digestive tract and has been shown to be important in metabolizing food, extracting vitamins and nutrients from food, and maintaining a healthy gut lining. The gut microbiome plays an important role in overall health and has been shown to dynamically change in response to early-stage triple-negative breast cancer-directed therapies, which in turn has been associated with worse outcomes. As the gut microbiome can be further modulated with dietary changes during cancer treatment, it is an ideal potential modifiable risk factor in cancer patients. However, due to multiple confounding factors such as dietary intake, mood, and activity, its utility as part of the oncologic clinical assessment remains unclear. In this prospective randomized controlled study, the investigators propose to recruit up to 30 early-stage TNBC patients to randomize to a personalized nutritional intervention of a high-fiber diet coached by a registered dietician versus educational handout alone during neoadjuvant treatment. The investigators propose to study the gut microbiota through stool sample analysis among early-stage triple-negative breast cancer patients undergoing neoadjuvant (i.e. before surgery) chemotherapy +/- immunotherapy. The investigators will also study how the gut microbiota can be further modulated with a high-fiber diet, and the investigators hypothesize that a high-fiber diet may play a protective role in preserving gut microbial diversity. As part of the nutritional intervention, the investigators propose to administer nutritional counseling with a registered dietitian (RD) to increase fiber intake and tracking performance status, activity, and mood during neoadjuvant treatment. Finally, the investigators propose to survey participants after study completion through one-on-one interviews to determine whether participants experienced improved overall patient satisfaction in supportive care during their treatment.

The goal of this clinical trial is to see if an injectable medicine called naltrexone can prevent fentanyl overdose deaths in people who use other drugs (cocaine, methamphetamine). The main questions it aims to answer are: What are the challenges for implementing naltrexone as an overdose prevention strategy? Are injections of naltrexone effective for opioid overdose prevention among people who use stimulants? How often are people who use stimulants and do not intentionally use opioids unintentionally exposed to opioids? Researchers will compare participants to receive the study medication to the usual care group to see if one group experiences fewer opioid overdose events than the other. Participants will be randomized to either receive a monthly injection of naltrexone over six months, or receive usual care. Usual care includes harm reduction supplies. Laboratory procedures will include the collection of urine, blood, and hair samples for various safety and outcome measure testing. Read Less

This study aims to assess the feasibility and acceptability of "MAYA", a mobile cognitive behavioral therapy app for anxiety and mood disorders, in adults who have had a stroke. Read Less

The researchers are doing this study to find out whether it is practical (feasible) to give cemiplimab and fianlimab before a nephrectomy and whether it causes any delays with surgery in people with kidney cancer. The researchers will also look at whether cemiplimab and fianlimab given before a nephrectomy is a safe and effective treatment approach and if there is a change in the size of the tumor following immunotherapy prior to planned surgery.

This study will test if giving parents access to their child's medical notes on a bedside tablet: * helps them get more involved in their care * helps identify safety concerns Parents of hospitalized children will be randomly assigned to either use the Bedside Notes tool or follow usual care. To see if this approach improves care and safety, researchers will measure: * note access * parent-reported safety concerns * overall experiences Read Less

The purpose of this study is to assess the reliability of outcomes collected using a speed and cognitive light training system. This study will also be used to understand the effects of brain training on athletic performance using the FITLIGHT System. Read Less
