This phase I trial will determine the maximum tolerated dose of lenalidomide when given in combination with high-dose systemic methotrexate and rituximab, with or without nivolumab, as induction treatment of primary central nervous system lymphoma. In addition, whether the combination of drugs can extend the control of CNS lymphoma by being used as maintenance (prolonged treatment) after control is achieved with the initial chemotherapy regimen (induction) will be judged. If decided to take part in the study, participants will complete pre-study testing, and if allowed to participate in study different people will get different doses of the study drug lenalidomide during induction chemotherapy. If the drug does not cause serious side effects, the next group of people in the study will get a higher dose, and the doses will continue to increase for every new group until people have serious side effects that require the dose to be lower. Lenalidomide will be taken by mouth on days 5 to 14 of each induction cycle. Once the dose of lenalidomide is found, the next group of people in the study will receive nivolumab in combination with the other drugs (methotrexate, rituximab, and lenalidomide). The first drug administered in each cycle is rituximab, which is given as an intravenous infusion typically in the infusion center. The day after rituximab, participants will be admitted to the hospital for the infusion of methotrexate. Enrolled participants that present benefit after induction will receive lenalidomide and nivolumab as prolonged therapy (maintenance) for an additional 12 months (12 cycles and each cycle is 28 days) or until the disease gets worse or the side effects become too severe. After treatment is completed the study doctor will continue to follow up on participants condition for 2 years to observe side effects. After 2 years the doctor will continue to follow up either in clinic or by phone for up to 5 years after registration. The most common side effects known are kidney damage, infusion reaction, blood clots, birth defects, immune toxicity, fever and infections, and there may be some risks that the study doctor is not aware of yet. Once the combination is proven safe, this study will allow for future studies to determine whether the combination of these four drugs can improve the response to treatment and help increase the understanding of their use in primary CNS lymphoma treatment. It is unclear whether these drugs will help participants live longer than the usual approach alone.

In the effort to find better treatments for moderate acne, which often relies on long-term antibiotic use, researchers are exploring alternative options. While isotretinoin, a vitamin A derivative, is highly effective for severe acne, its side effects limit its use for milder cases. A recent study from our institution investigated a new approach: weekly isotretinoin dosing. The results were promising, with acne improvement and no major side effects. This suggests that weekly isotretinoin could be a successful alternative for moderate acne in both males and females. To validate these findings, we propose a randomized controlled trial comparing weekly isotretinoin to daily doxycycline over four months. This study could confirm the safety and effectiveness of weekly isotretinoin, as well as shed light on patient satisfaction, and long-term results compared to standard antibiotics. This research may offer a breakthrough in treating moderate acne while addressing concerns about antibiotic overuse.

The InnAVasc Arteriovenous Graft is made from the same materials as standard care grafts, but with added medically safe materials that may make the graft easier to identify, safer to stick for dialysis, more durable, and less likely to bleed after your dialysis session when compared to standard care grafts. The InnAVasc Arteriovenous Graft is an investigational product, which means that this is not yet approved by government agencies like the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), but preliminary tests in the laboratory and in animals have proven safe enough to be allowed to be used in human clinical studies such as this.

Approximately 105 subjects will take part in this research at approximately 30 different medical facilities/hospitals in the United States. This will be the third time (3rd study) the InnAVasc Arteriovenous Graft will be used in human subjects.

This is a research study to find out if Qutenza 8% capsaicin topical system is safe and effective when treating subjects with lower back pain (LBP) that is caused by damage at or near the nerve's root in the lower back leg (lumbosacral radiculopathy) which is pain that can move all the way down the back of the leg. The pain may also start outside of the spinal cord, in the peripheral nerves and may also be felt all the way down the back of the leg (neuropathic LBP). Qutenza 8% capsaicin, the study drug, is currently FDA approved to treat nerve pain after a shingles outbreak in addition to a type of nerve pain in the feet associated with diabetes. In this study a maximum of four patches per visit (sized 14cm x 20 cm) will be used to deliver the Qutenza 8% capsaicin to your skin.

If a subject meets the qualifications for this study, in addition to their standard of care for their LBP, they will be treated with Qutenza 8% capsaicin topical system and can expect to have a total of 5 visits in a 12 month period. Each visit will require subjects to fill out several surveys and receive treatment patches for their LBP (your doctor will decide if you will need to be retreated at each visit based on your symptoms). This is an open-label study and all participants will receive Qutenza 8% capsaicin topical system. The study visits are estimated to take 90 minutes upwards to 120 minutes.

The purpose of this study is to get feedback on an existing augmented reality (AR) software developed by researchers at Wayne State University (phase I) and then use the refined software, along with Prolonged Exposure (PE) therapy to treat Veterans and military personnel with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

AR involves wearing goggles through which you can see the real world, however virtual objects can be added to the environment (for example, like in the popular phone game Pokemon Go).

The technology was originally designed to help first responders, specifically police and firefighters, to overcome their avoidance of normal life situations caused by their trauma experience and PTSD. This includes a crowded party, a grocery store, a police roll call room and a fire station. This technology is now being expanded to include other common scenarios that military personnel and Veterans with PTSD may avoid.

This study will occur in 2 phases. Phase 1 will focus on getting feedback on the AR program from people who have completed PE therapy before to refine the technology. In phase 2, 40 Veterans and military personnel will be randomly selected to receive PTSD therapy + the refined AR technology or PE therapy alone.

This study is open to Veterans and active duty military personnel. All study activities will take place at the Ralph H. Johnson VA Health Care System and surrounding community-based outpatient clinics. This study is not open to civilians/non military personnel at this time.

This phase III study is for participants with recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) that is negative for a type of virus called human papilloma virus (HPV). If decided to participate in this study, participants will be receive either ficlatuzumab in combination with cetuximab, or placebo in combination with cetuximab. There are 3 Arms participants will be randomly assigned to: Arm 1 will receive ficlatuzumab (10mg/kg by intravenous (IV) infusion) and cetuximab (by IV infusion), Arm 2 will be given ficlatuzumab (20mg/kg by IV infusion) and cetuximab, and Arm 3 will receive placebo and cetuximab. The effectiveness of the 2 different ficlatuzumab groups (Arm 1 and Arm 2) will be compared at the first on-study scan, and the more successful Arm will began enroll more participants. This study is estimated to last approximately 5 years. Study drugs will be administered until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of consent, death, or until the Sponsor terminates the study (whichever comes first). The main risk associate with the trial are swelling of your lower legs or arms, fatigue, shortness of breath, vomiting, diarrhea or constipation, bone pain, decreased appetite, anemia, high level of liver enzymes in your blood, dizziness, infusion reactions, cardiopulmonary arrest, pulmonary (lung) toxicity, skin reactions, inflammation of the mouth, low blood counts, liver problems, infection, headache, allergic reactions, and there may be unknown risks. This treatment can not guarantee the cancer will get better, since it may stay the same or get worse. What is discovered from this study may help other people in the future. The alternative to this study is not participating in this study and receiving HNSCC in patients who have previously received immunotherapy including chemotherapy with other treatment drugs or another clinical trial.

Adolescence is a time of development in the brain and microbiome, including the microbiome present in the mouth called the oral microbiome. Alcohol use often begins and escalates during adolescence, which can cause changes to the oral microbiome leading to changes in the brain. The alcohol specific changes to the oral microbiome and the brain may make adolescents more vulnerable to a lifelong struggle with alcohol use disorder. This study will collect (1) saliva to assess the composition of the oral microbiome and (2) brain measurements using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) across adolescents who may or may not use alcohol. Findings from this study will help form a more thorough understanding of the biological consequences of adolescent alcohol use, with the long-term goal of informing novel prevention and intervention efforts.

This study is for subjects that have been diagnosed with Follicular Lymphoma.
This study is testing an investigational drug(s) called Epcoritamab that is not approved by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration). The purpose of this study is to see if the combination of the study drug epcoritamab with rituximab and lenalidomide has a better response rate than standard of care chemoimmunotherapy in the treatment of follicular lymphoma. The total study treatment duration is up to 2.5 years. You may stop the study treatment early if you do not respond after 6 months, your disease worsens, you no longer tolerate the study drug(s), or you withdraw from the study.

Once you finish the study treatment or discontinued study treatment early, you will continue to the Post-Study Treatment Follow Up Period, you will come back to the study clinic every 6 months for the first 3 years and then yearly to have imaging scans and blood work to check if your disease is in remission or worsen.

If your disease worsens or if you start a new FL treatment, you will enter the Long-term Follow Up Period, you will be called by telephone or your health record will be reviewed to check on your well-being and to see what your next treatment plan will be. This follow-up may last up to 15 years.

We will follow 146 new parents of children <5 years of age at 18 participating US
adult CF centers to assess the primary outcome of ppFEV1 up to 5 years after
becoming a parent. A prospective approach will capture the immediate and longterm impact of the use of the highly effective CFTR modulator ETI by ~90% of US
adults with CF. By combining objective health measures and participant surveys,
we can comprehensively assess the psychosocial impacts of parenthood and
explore the interplay between the parenting role and physical and mental health.
We anticipate identifying modifiable factors that may ameliorate negative health
impacts of parenthood.
