There are about 173942 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in United States. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the results of treating patients with HPV-unrelated head and neck squamous cell carcinoma with neoadjuvant single-agent palbociclib, followed by chemoradiation (either cisplatin + IMRT or cetuximab + IMRT depending on patient characteristics), followed by adjuvant single-agent palbociclib.
This study investigates if a new drug (PSMA) makes prostate cancer easier to identify in positron-emission tomography (PET) imaging. If this works, prostate cancer treatments can be prescribed that match the location of the disease. PSMA is radiolabeled with Gallium-68 (Ga-68). This means a participant receives a small dose of radiation from the drug - less than the annual radiation limit for a medical worker. To test this new drug, participants will receive an injection of Ga-68 PSMA and then have a PET scan. This PET scan, and the reported results, will be entered into the medical record and shared with the treating oncologists.
To estimate the incidence of Early Onset Pulmonary Events (EOPEs), defined as the proportion of participants with a peak reduction in DLCO of 20% or greater after commencing brigatinib at 90mg QD.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of memory-enriched T cells in treating patients with grade II-IV glioma that has come back (recurrent) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Memory enriched T cells such as HER2(EQ)BBζ/CD19t+ T cells may enter and express its genes in immune cells. Immune cells can be engineered to kill glioma cells in the laboratory by inserting a piece of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) into the immune cells that allows them to recognize glioma cells. A vector called lentivirus is used to carry the piece of DNA into the immune cell. It is not known whether these immune cells will kill glioma tumor cells when given to patients.
A multidisciplinary investigation examining the circadian mechanisms regulating cardiovascular (CV) risk in obesity. Specifically, in a valid circadian protocol, the investigators aim to study resting cardiovascular risk markers and the reactivity of circadian rhythms in these risk markers to standardized stressors in obesity. Furthermore, using an ingenious approach, the investigators propose to explore impairment in pre/post synaptic function in the cardiac left ventricle.
Background: Sometimes prostate cancer comes back after a person's prostate is removed. In this case, radiation is a common treatment. Radiation kills prostate cancer cells. It can be very effective. It is usually given in short doses almost every day for 6 or 7 weeks. Researchers want to see if a shorter schedule can be as effective. They want to see if that causes the same or fewer side effects. Usually, radiation is used to treat the entire area where the prostate was before surgery. In some patients, an area of tumor can be seen on scans. Researchers are also trying to see if they can give less dose to the area usually treated with radiation if the full dose is given to the tumor seen on scans. Objective: To find the shortest radiation schedule that people can tolerate without strong side effects. Eligibility: People at least 18 years old who have had a prostatectomy and will get radiation. Design: Participants will be screened with: - Medical history - Physical exam - Blood and urine tests - Scan that uses a small amount of radiation to make a picture of the body - Scan that uses a magnetic field to make an image of the body - Participants will provide documents that confirm their diagnosis. - Participants may have a scan of the abdomen and pelvis. Before they start treatment, participants will have another physical exam and blood tests. Participants will get radiation each day Monday through Friday. Treatment may last 2, 3, or 4 weeks. Participants may provide a tissue sample from a previous procedure for research. Participants will answer questions about their general well-being and function. About 4-5 weeks after they finish radiation treatment, participants will have a follow-up visit. They will be examined and give a blood sample. They will have 6 follow-up visits for the next 2 years.
The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility of investigational Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging using the new generation digital detector PET technology for new procedures beyond the current standard of care.
The purpose of this study is to learn more about how to treat patients with HER-2/neu positive invasive breast cancer (IBC). HER-2/neu is a type of protein that is known to be over-expressed in aggressive breast cancer. The study drug for this trial is DC1 study vaccine which is a HER2-sensitized dendritic cell (DC) study vaccine. This study vaccine is made from the participant's blood cells collected from a procedure called leukapheresis. Dendritic cells are immune cells that can tell the immune system to fight infection. In laboratory testing and from previous studies in participants, these cells may also help the immune system attack tumors such as breast cancer.
The goal of this research is to provide limb training in children with hemiplegia using a bimanual-to-unimanual training approach. Twenty pediatric patients aged 5-17 years with acquired brain injury will receive training on the bimanual-to-unimanual device for a period of 9 weeks. During the training, children use both arms to operate robotic arms to play a video game. We will assess changes in hand impairment after the training.
This is a phase 1b/2 study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of metronomic combination therapy in subjects with SCC who have progressed on or after previous platinum-based chemotherapy and anti-PD-1/PD-L1 therapy. Phase 2 will be based on Simon's two-stage optimal design.
