Summary

This study is testing a new radiotracer dye called I-124 evuzamitide in patients with suspected cardiac amyloidosis. Cardiac amyloidosis occurs when proteins misfold and deposit as amyloid fibrils in the heart. The build up of these fibrils (proteins) cause the heart to enlarge due to wall thickening so the heart has to work harder. Over time, this can lead to heart failure. I-124 evuzamitide is given during a Positron Emissions Tomography/ Computed Tomography (PET/CT) scan to help diagnose cardiac amyloidosis. It is not a treatment for amyloidosis. I-124 evuzamitide is considered investigational meaning it is not approved for commercial use by the Food and Drug Administration. (FDA). It will be given one time through an intravenous line, meaning in the vein before the PET/CT scan.

This study will last about 60 days and include 4 visits. The final study visit will take place at day 30 but medical records will be reviewed up to day 60. In addition to receiving I-124 evuzamitide, participants will also receive potassium iodide, an approved medication, by mouth to take for 3 days to protect the thyroid gland from the radiotracer I-124 evuzamitide, electrocardiogram (ECG), bloodwork and questionnaires.

A Multicenter, Open Label, Randomized, Phase 2 Study of Venetoclax and Azacitidine Plus Cusatuzumab Versus Venetoclax and Azacitidine Alone in Newly Diagnosed AML Patients who are not Candidates for Intensive Therapy

Summary

The purpose of this study is to see if the investigational study drug, called cusatuzumab, is safe and effective when given together with other standard of care drugs used to treat Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML). AML is a type of cancer that affects the blood and bone marrow. Cusatuzumab is a new type of drug for AML. Cusatuzumab is designed to target a protein found on the surface of AML tumor cells, called human cluster of differentiation CD70. CD70 is not widely found in healthy cells. By targeting and killing cells expressing CD70, cusatuzumab has been shown in the laboratory and in animal studies to reduce tumor growth. In this study, cusatuzumab is being tested together with two other drugs that are commonly used to treat AML as a standard of care. These standard of care drugs are called venetoclax and azacitidine. In this consent form, cusatuzumab, venetoclax, and azacitidine will be referred to as "study drugs".

Implementation of the New Pediatric Obesity Clinical Practice Guideline in Rural Families and Clinics: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Date Added
February 12th, 2025
PRO Number
Pro00140879
Researcher
James Roberts

List of Studies


Keywords
Children's Health, Obesity, Pediatrics
Summary

iAmHealthy CPG aims to provide valuable insights into tailored obesity interventions for rural populations through dual interventions: iAmHealthy, a family-based behavioral group program delivered via telehealth, and Healthy Clinic, which enhances clinic processes through provider prompts and skills training. The study employs a stepped wedge design, allowing clinics to transition from a control condition to the intervention in staggered, randomized waves.

The study will evaluate the effectiveness of iAmHealthy compared to a control group, assess the impact of the Healthy Clinic intervention on obesity management at the practice-level, and explore the combined effects of both interventions. Quality improvement concepts and processes will be covered through various topics during monthly virtual learning collaborative meetings once your practice enters the intervention phase. Key outcomes will include changes in children's BMI, physical activity, dietary behaviors, and sleep quality.

A Phase 3, Randomized, Double-Blind, Safety, and Efficacy Study of Ruxolitinib Cream in Pediatric Participants With Nonsegmental Vitiligo

Summary

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of ruxolitinib cream compared to a placebo (vehicle) cream in treating vitiligo in children aged 2 to 12 years. The vehicle cream looks identical to the ruxolitinib cream but contains no active medication. By comparing these two treatments, researchers hope to determine whether ruxolitinib is more effective than the placebo in improving facial and body vitiligo symptoms. This study could provide important insights into new treatment options for young children affected by this condition.

A Randomized, Controlled, Multiregional Phase 3 Study of Ivonescimab Combined with Chemotherapy Versus Pembrolizumab Combined with Chemotherapy for the First-line Treatment of Metastatic Squamous Nonsmall Cell Lung Cancer

Date Added

PRO Number

Researcher
Mariam Alexander

List of Studies

Keywords
Cancer, Cancer/Lung, Drug Studies
Summary

The main purpose of this study is to measure overall survival (OS) and safety of ivonescimab (study drug) when combined with chemotherapy drugs carboplatin, paclitaxel or nab-paclitaxel compared to pembrolizumab combined with chemotherapy drugs carboplatin, paclitaxel or nab-paclitaxel. Participants will undergo screening procedures done to determine if they meet the requirements to be in this study. Screening will be completed within 28 days before receiving the study drug. Many of these screening measures are likely part of regular cancer care and may be done even if it turns out that you do not participate in the research study.

Once enrolled in the study, participants will visit the clinic every three weeks for 4 cycles of ivonescimab plus chemotherapy or pembrolizumab and chemotherapy for up to four infusions, followed by ivonescimab or pembrolizumab every three weeks for up to 24 months. If a participant's physician decides to use nab-paclitaxel chemotherapy for the first 4 cycles of treatment, the schedule of treatment is different and will require that the participant comes to the clinic for this infusion on days 1, 8, and 15 of each cycle. There will be follow-up check-up visits with the study team approximately 7 days, 30 days and 90 days after the last treatment or before the participant starts a new treatment for the cancer. Ninety (90) days after the participant stops taking the study drug, there will be a call or a visit scheduled to review how the they are feeling. This is a survival call/visit and will happen every 90 days until the end of the study. Participation in this study will last about 4 years, 2 years in active treatment and 2 years in follow up.

PRO Number
Pro00140426
Researcher
Stephen Stringfellow

List of Studies

Keywords
Men's Health
Summary

This research study is focused on evaluating the effectiveness of a new imaging technique for a procedure called Prostate Artery Embolization (PAE), which is used to treat an enlarged prostate. The study compares two groups of patients: one group receives PAE with advanced imaging called 3D CTA fusion, and the other group receives PAE using the standard imaging method. The goal is to determine if using 3D CTA fusion can make the procedure faster, reduce the amount of radiation exposure, and decrease the need for contrast dye during the procedure. By studying these two groups, researchers hope to identify ways to make PAE safer and more efficient​

Cancer
Summary

This study aims to develop a new blood test to detect and identify many different types of cancer, using a special technique that looks at tiny changes in your DNA. Some participants will be followed over time to see if this method can also find leftover cancer cells (after treatment), and if it could warn if the cancer comes back. However, this test still under development, so there are no results reported back to participants. The goal is to create a reliable tool that one day could help doctors diagnose and monitor cancer(s) more effectively.
