This study is for patients who have completed curative-intent treatment for colorectal cancer. It is testing an educational website called Current Together After Cancer (CTAC) to see if it improves follow-up care, including knowledge about cancer recurrence, recommended tests, and self-management of health. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two versions of the website, with or without additional features for engaging a support person, and can use it on a computer, tablet, or smartphone. The study will last up to 16 months, including website use, surveys, and optional interviews, with participation completely voluntary. The goal is to determine whether CTAC helps patients better understand follow-up care and engage their supporters to improve adherence to recommended surveillance. There will be a total of 21 patients enrolled locally over the course of 36 months.

This is a Phase II clinical trial testing a drug called Telisotuzumab Vedotin in people who have already been treated for a specific type of lung cancer that has spread or is hard to remove with surgery. The cancer must show high levels of a protein called c-Met and have a normal version of another protein called eGFR. The main goal is to see how well the drug works and how safe it is when given in three different ways. Telisotuzumab Vedotin is a special kind of medicine that combines an antibody (which targets cancer cells) with chemotherapy. It's given through an IV (a tube in your vein), and each treatment takes about 30 minutes. Patients will get this treatment every two weeks on day one of the cycle. There will be four cycles in the study. There is also a 28 day screening window, a 30 day follow up period, post treatment follow up, and then survival follow up. The study itself will only last a few months, but the follow up will last for years. The follow up period will have limited contact compared to the main study. There will be around about 10 total study visits.
Genicular Artery Embolization (GAE) is a newer treatment aimed at reducing knee pain caused by osteoarthritis by targeting and reducing inflammation. In people with knee osteoarthritis, inflammation in the joint leads to the growth of tiny new blood vessels, called neovessels. These vessels are not normally present in a healthy joint and contribute to ongoing inflammation and pain.
GAE works by selectively injecting tiny particles into specific arteries that supply blood to these abnormal vessels. This process is called embolization, and it temporarily blocks the flow of blood through the neovessels.
Doctors use a special imaging technique called angiography to guide the procedure. This allows them to see the inflamed area and locate the neovessels, which are larger than normal due to the ongoing inflammation—usually about 1–2 millimeters in diameter.
By blocking these abnormal vessels, GAE helps to reduce the number of inflammatory cells and signaling chemicals (called cytokines) that enter the joint through the bloodstream. This decreases the overall inflammation in the area.
Additionally, the growth of pain-sensing nerves, which often occurs alongside these new vessels, may also be reduced. These nerves—called unmyelinated sensory nerves—can worsen pain when they are activated by inflammation. By decreasing both inflammation and nerve growth, GAE may significantly reduce knee pain in people with osteoarthris

This study is testing a new medicine called Visugromab (CTL-002) to see if it helps people with a type of lung cancer called metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer. Everyone in the study will get standard cancer treatment, but some will also get Visugromab while others get a placebo (a look-alike with no active drug), and who gets what is decided randomly—like flipping a coin. The goal is to find out if Visugromab makes the treatment more effective and safe. The study will last up to two years, with Treatment in cycles lasting 3 weeks, about once a month. Researchers will closely monitor participants to see how well the treatment works and how their bodies respond. Serious risks of treatment may include heart problems, low oxygen levels, infections, organ failure, and inflammation in various parts of the body such as the lungs, liver, intestines, pancreas, and thyroid.
The study will test an investigational drug known as 4D-710. An "investigational drug" is one that has not yet been approved for use by a Health Authority such as the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). 4D-710 is being studied as a potential treatment for cystic fibrosis lung disease. This is the first study to test 4D-710 in humans. The purpose of this study is to see if 4D-710 is safe for use in adults with cystic fibrosis and to see if 4D-710 can help lung function.
This study focuses on adolescents who experience both substance use problems and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), which often occur together and can seriously impact mental health, school performance, and relationships if left untreated. The goal is to evaluate a trauma-focused treatment called Concurrent Treatment of PTSD and Substance Use Disorders for Adolescents (COPE-A), which is designed to address both conditions at the same time. Earlier pilot studies showed that COPE-A is safe, feasible, and effective in reducing substance use and PTSD symptoms compared to a supportive counseling approach.
In this larger study, 120 adolescents from across the U.S. will receive treatment through telehealth. Researchers will compare COPE-A to person-centered therapy to see which leads to greater improvements in substance use and PTSD symptoms. The study will also examine effects on depression, HIV risk behaviors, relationships, and overall quality of life, while using brief daily surveys to track changes over time.
The study is researching an experimental drug called dupilumab. The study is focused on children with active eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE; an inflammatory disease of the esophagus) which impacts feeding and nourishment. The aim of the study is to see how safe, tolerable, and effective the study drug is when given for 24 weeks to children with active EoE. Focsing on participants aged ≥6 months and weighing ≥5 kg and<15 kg.
Many people with Overactive Bladder (OAB) continue to have symptoms such as urinary urgency, frequency, and leakage even while taking medication. This research study is being done to see whether using the ZIDA sock, an FDA approved wearable device, can help reduce symptoms when added to a person's usual OAB medication. The ZIDA sock provides mild electrical stimulation to a nerve near the ankle and is worn like a regular sock. Participants will use the ZIDA sock at home once a week for 30 minutes over 12 weeks. Participants will be asked to complete bladder diaries to record urinary symptoms and questionnaires about their bladder symptoms, quality of life, and satisfaction with the device. Study staff will also ask about any side effects or discomfort related to device use. The information collected will help determine whether the ZIDA sock is a helpful add-on treatment for people with OAB who still have symptoms despite medication.
This is a randomized, double-blind, multicenter Phase IIIb study comparing remibrutinib tablets with dupilumab injections in adults with chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) that is not well controlled by second-generation H1-antihistamines. Participants will receive either remibrutinib or dupilumab for 12 weeks, alongside their usual antihistamine. The goal is to see which treatment works faster and better at reducing symptoms like hives and itching. If remibrutinib is not yet available commercially after the study, participants may continue taking it in an optional extension phase.
