Summary

Co-occurring post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and alcohol use disorder (AUD) disproportionately affects Veterans and has significant negative impacts on the safety, wellbeing, and quality of life of Veterans, their romantic partners, and their families. However, treatments that address co-occurring PTSD-AUD and restore Veterans' psychosocial functioning are lacking. The overall goal of this project is to improve treatment approaches aimed at reducing symptoms of co-occurring PTSD-AUD and improving functioning among Veterans and their partners. We plan to do this by learning from Veterans, family members, and treatment providers in order to inform an adaptation of a brief dyadic AUD intervention to be delivered alongside integrated PTSD-AUD treatment for Veteran couples and then conducting a pilot trial of an adapted Brief Family Involved Treatment (B-FIT) intervention with Veterans with PTSD-AUD and their romantic partners.

Summary

This study aims to explore the prevalence of mental health symptoms, including trauma exposure and posttraumatic stress symptoms in a postpartum population. The study also aims to collect information related to medical and mental health treatment seeking before, during, and after pregnancy as well as feedback on adaptations of future mental health interventions delivered during the postpartum period. Participation in this study includes a 35 minute online survey with questionnaires related to the study aims. Depending on survey responses, participants may be invited to complete an interview with study personnel to provide more specific insight on mental health treatments for perinatal individuals.

A Randomized Phase II/III Study of Docetaxel and Ramucirumab with or Without Cemiplimab (REGN2810) for Participants Previously Treated with Platinum-based Chemotherapy and Immunotherapy for Stage IV or Recurrent Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (Lung-MAP Non-Matched Sub-Study)

Keywords

Summary

This study is for patients who have non-small cell lung cancer that is stage IV or has returned after remission. The goal is to compare the usual treatment by itself to the usual treatment plus a drug called cemiplimab. "Investigational" means this drug combination has not been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). A computer will randomly assign patients to one of two groups. This process is called "randomization." Patients will be placed into a group by chance, like flipping a coin, and will have an equal chance of being in Group 1 or Group 2. The drug is given by infusion. Patients will keep getting treatment until the cancer gets worse. Each treatment cycle lasts 21 days. After the last cycle, patients will be followed for up to 3 years.

Summary

This is a clinical use of an FDA-approved Humanitarian Use Device (HUD) under a Humanitarian Device Exemption (HDE) called Miltenyi Biotec CliniMACS CD34. The intent is to treat patients with Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) in a clinical setting, not to conduct research or gather data on safety or effectiveness. No data will be collected beyond what is required for standard clinical care. Device-related processing will occur at an NMDP Advanced Cell Therapy Lab Solutions facility, and the resulting cell product will be transported to MUSC Hollings Cancer Center for infusion. Eligible patients are in first complete remission and undergoing allogeneic stem cell transplant (SCT) from an HLA-identical matched related donor. Patients will be provided MUSC's standard treatment consent per institutional policies. The HUD will be stored, dispensed, and used at NMDP in accordance with standard operating procedures.

Summary

This study is for women who have delivered a child in the past 18 months, have experienced one or more traumatic events during their lifetime, and use substances. First, the research involves completing brief screening questions over the phone to determine eligibility for the study. Second, eligible women will be invited to complete a 60- to 90-minute study visit comprised of an online survey and an interview about their opinions on postpartum substance use and potential future resources to help address substance use among postpartum women with trauma histories.

Researcher
Patrick Flume

List of Studies


Keywords
Lung, Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM), Pulmonary
Summary

The purpose of the study is to learn more about an experimental drug called ORC-13661 that may be helpful in treating hearing loss due to antibiotic use. The study is researching whether the drug is safe and tolerable, and trying to find out whether the drug may be able to mitigate or prevent hearing loss in patients being treated with intravenous (IV) amikacin. Participation in the study will consist of up to 10 visits over up to 129 days. The Day 1 visit (following the screening visit) will last up to 8 hours, while other visits will last up to 5 hours Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either ORC-13661at a higher dose or a lower dose or a placebo (a pill that looks the same as the study drug but has no real medicine in it), for up to 90 days to be taken along with IV amikacin. Participants will be asked to have a number of tests and procedures, which include questionnaires about family, medical, and hearing history, physical and hearing examination, and assessments of hearing.

NRG-GU015: The Phase III Adaptive Radiation and Chemotherapy for Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer Trial (ARCHER)

Researcher
David Marshall

List of Studies


Keywords
Cancer, Cancer/Genitourinary
Summary

This study is for patients who have been diagnosed with bladder cancer and are eligible to receive chemotherapy and radiation therapy while keeping their bladder. The study is testing an investigational radiation schedule called stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT), which delivers higher doses of radiation over fewer treatment sessions. "Investigational" means it has not been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

Participants will be randomly assigned (like flipping a coin) to one of two groups. One group will receive the usual chemotherapy and standard radiation therapy schedule, which involves lower radiation doses given five days a week for 4 to 5 weeks. The other group will receive the usual chemotherapy and the study radiation schedule (SBRT), which delivers higher doses of radiation in fewer treatments over a shorter period of time.

The primary purpose of this study is to find out whether the shorter radiation schedule is as effective as the usual radiation schedule at preventing bladder cancer from getting worse and avoiding bladder removal surgery.

Radiation therapy and chemotherapy will be given while the bladder remains in place. After treatment is complete, participants will be followed by the study doctor for up to 5 years to monitor for side effects and whether the cancer returns or progresses.

All participants can expect to complete questionnaires about symptoms and quality of life at several time points during and after treatment. These questionnaires are part of the research and will not be shared with treating physicians. There will be a total of 16 patients enrolled locally over 48 months.

Keywords
Bladder, Urinary
Summary

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.
