Summary

This study involves a procedure called renal denervation with an investigational device called the TIVUS™ system for the treatment of resistant hypertension (high blood pressure). Investigational means it is not yet approved for commercial use by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Renal denervation is a procedure done by introducing a catheter (long tube) into the large blood vessel in your groin (top of leg) and guiding it to your renal arteries, which are the blood vessels that go to your kidneys. The catheter will be placed in the renal arteries and ultrasound energy will be delivered to the renal arteries.
This study is randomized, meaning you will be assigned to one of two groups, by chance, like drawing straws. Two out of three participants will be randomized to renal denervation while one out of three will be randomized to sham. Sham means you will go through all the steps of the procedure but will not receive the treatment. Those participants randomized to sham will have the option to crossover and have the procedure after the 6 month follow up.
This study will involve at least 12 visits over the course of 36 months. Study related procedures include CT scan, ultrasound test of your heart and kidneys, blood work, urine studies, physical exams, questionnaire, and keeping home blood pressure diaries.
Study related risks include risks related to the procedure including pain, bleeding, damage to the blood vessels, risks related to the study related testing such as radiation risks, blood draw risks and loss of confidentiality. There may be benefit to you as well as others in the future with high blood pressure.

A Phase 2/3, Multicenter, Randomized Study of Raludotatug Deruxtecan (R-DXd), a CDH6-directed Antibody-drug Conjugate, in Subjects with Platinum-resistant, High-grade Ovarian, Primary Peritoneal, or Fallopian Tube Cancer

Summary

This study is for patients that have been diagnosed with platinum-resistant, high-grade ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer who have received at least 1 and no more than 3 prior systemic lines of anticancer therapy. The investigational drug used in this study is Raludotatug Deruxtecan (R-DXd). Investigational means it has not been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The primary purpose of this study is to determine the optimal dose of R-DXd for further clinical development. In Phase 3, participants will be randomized between R-DXd and investigator's choice of chemotherapy. Randomization is like flipping a coin, essentially meaning that each option has an equal likelihood of being selected. The drug is given to participants through infusion. Participants can continue to receive the study drug until it no longer gives them benefit. Researchers will continue to follow up with patients long-term.

Summary

This study is for subjects diagnosed with follicular lymphoma. The purpose of this study is to assess if treatment with Mosunetuzumab can improve long term remission in patients with low tumor burden follicular lymphoma compared to rituximab. The treatment period for the Rituximab arm is approximately 40 weeks. The treatment period for the Mosunetuzumab arm is approximately 24 weeks. However the subject may remain in the study for up to 10 years for the follow-up period.

This is a multicenter, open-label extension (OLE) study to see how safe and effective an inhaled medication called seralutinib is for people with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH). The primary objective of this study was to assess improvement in cardiopulmonary hemodynamics as measured by change in pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) from baseline to Week 24. The secondary objective of this study was to assess improvement in exercise capacity as measured by change in six-minute walk distance (6MWD) from baseline to Week 24.

Researcher
Jeffrey Winterfield

List of Studies


Keywords
Heart
Summary

This study is enrolling participants who completed the FARAPULSE ADVENT study and are now nearing the 3 year post atrial fibrillation ablation timepoint. Atrial fibrillation is an irregular heart rhythm caused by electrical signals misfiring. An ablation is a procedure in which those signals are targeted and destroyed to stop the atrial fibrillation. This study will consist of reviewing and collecting medical records since the ablation procedure as well as optional questionnaires and wearing a heart monitor for 7 days to capture the heart's electrical activity. There are no study related follow up visits. Study related risks include loss of confidentiality and possible skin reaction to the electrodes (sticky patches placed on the chest to detect the heart's electrical activity). Individual benefit is not expected but the information learned may contribute to knowledge in this field.

Summary

The long-term objective of this proposed R24 program is to enhance our understanding of how circadian rhythm disruption contributes to vulnerability to alcohol-induced organ damage, and to explore the underlying mechanisms (e.g. microbiota) that could lead to the identification of novel therapeutic targets. This knowledge aims to inform the development of innovative strategies to prevent and to treat alcohol-related pathologies.

Summary

Depression is common among cancer survivors, but current ways to address this area of care are lacking. In this project, we will work with cancer survivors and oncology providers to build a text-message based approach to screen cancer survivors for depression. Long term, we hope this research can be used to improve screening for depression for cancer survivors
