Summary

The purpose of this study is to build a repository (collection) of heart signals from eligible subjects. The experimental part of this study is the collection of heart signals using a device similar to a heart monitor called the Phase Signal Acquisition System. The signals will be electronically sent to a storage center and paired with the subject's heart catheterization results for future use in research and development activities sponsored by Analytics 4 Life. The study will include up to 1500 participants at up to 20 research sites in the United States and will require approximately one hour of the subject's time. There are no follow-up visits. .

The purpose of this study is to build a repository of heart signals from eligible subjects. The experimental part of this study is the collection of the participant's heart signals using a device similar to a heart monitor called the Phase Signal Acquisition System. The signals will be electronically sent to a storage center, then compared to the results of the participant's heart catheterization and saved for future research and development activities sponsored by Analytics 4 Life. The study will include up to 2500 participants at up to 20 research sites in the United States and will require approximately one hour of the subject's time. There are no follow-up visits.

Summary

Depression is a very common disorder that is most often chronic or recurrent in nature. Many subjects do not respond adequately to an initial antidepressant treatment trial. Subjects who do not respond adequately to multiple therapeutic interventions are considered to have treatment-resistant depression (TRD). Among the treatment options for subjects with TRD is Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VNS) Therapy.This blinded, randomized, multicenter controlled study is intended to collect evidence that VNS Therapy as an adjunctive therapy improves health outcomes for patients with TRD.

Summary

This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of 200 participants to receive N-acetyl cysteine (NAC) or placebo for a 24 month duration. The purpose of this study is to see if n-acetylcysteine (NAC) can help people with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) who have a specific gene type and to see if NAC is safe to take without causing too many side effects.

Summary

This study is for patients that have been diagnosed with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC).The investigational drug used in this study is CLN-081.

This study has 3 parts; Phase 1 Dose Escalation, Phase 1 Dose Expansion, and Phase 2a Dose Expansion:
-Phase 1 Dose Escalation: The main aim of this part of the study is to find a maximum tolerated dose for CLN-081. This will be done by slowly increasing the dose given to each participant or to small groups of participants until certain adverse effects are seen. All participants will be closely monitored by the study doctor and team. When the maximum tolerated dose has been found, it will be used in the subsequent parts of the study.
-Phase 1 Dose Expansion: In this part of the study more participants will receive the maximum tolerated dose to confirm the safety of this dose of the study medicine and to explore different dosing schedules, for example, taking the study medicine once a day versus twice a day.
-Phase 2a Dose Expansion: The main aim of this part of the study will be to see how well the study medicine works in reducing tumor size.

Participants can expect to be on this study for about 3 years.

MPFC Theta Burst Stimulation as a Treatment Tool for Alcohol Use Disorder: Effects on Drinking and Incentive Salience

Date Added

PRO Number
Pro00102709
Researcher
Lisa McTeague

List of Studies


Keywords
Alcohol, Brain, Drug Studies, Psychiatry, Substance Use
Summary

The purpose of this study is to develop transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), specifically TMS at a frequency known as theta burst stimulation (TBS), to see how it affects the brain and changes the brain's response to alcohol-related pictures. TMS and TBS are stimulation techniques that use magnetic pulses to temporarily excite specific brain areas in awake people (without the need for surgery, anesthetic, or other invasive procedures). TBS, which is a form of TMS, will be applied over the medial prefrontal cortex, (MPFC), which has been shown to be involved with drinking patterns and alcohol consumption. This study will test whether TBS can be used as an alternative tool to reduce the desire to use alcohol and reducing the brain's response to alcohol-related pictures.

The CRISIS2 Study: A phase 2, randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center study assessing the safety and anti-coronavirus response of suppression of host nucleotide synthesis in out-patient adults with SARS-CoV-2

Keywords
Coronavirus
Summary

The CRISIS2 trial will study out-patients (non-hospitalized patients) who have a
positive SARS-CoV-2 test and are symptomatic. Subjects will be randomized to
receive standard of care (SOC) + 5 days of brequinar or SOC + 5 days of placebo.
The purpose of this study is to determine if the in vitro antiviral activity of
brequinar can be duplicated in patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 by measuring
the effect of brequinar on viral shedding. Importantly, the safety and tolerability of
brequinar will also be determined in these patients. The results of this proof-of concept study will inform future studies that will help determine if brequinar is a
safe and effective drug for the treatment of SARS-CoV-2 infection.
