Summary

The purpose of this study is to see how well the combination of home-based transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and prolonged exposure (PE) works in treating people with chronic pain (e.g., pain related to fibromyalgia, lower back pain, arthritis) and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

Participants must be a Veteran or Active-Duty service member with a diagnosis of PTSD and chronic musculoskeletal pain. Participants will receive 10 sessions of PE over 2 weeks (called Massed PE) and 10 sessions of tDCS.

GSR DEFINE– US Cohort

Researcher
Thomas Todoran

List of Studies


Keywords
Heart, Hypertension/ High Blood Pressure
Summary

This registry is enrolling subjects who are indicated for renal denervation to treat high blood pressure that has remained high despite treatment. Renal denervation is a procedure where a catheter (a thin, flexible plastic tube with four electrodes near the end) is placed inside the blood vessels that go to the kidneys. Heat is delivered through the electrodes to disable the nerve activity and lower the blood pressure.

Participation in this registry will last about 1-3 years and include 3-6 visits depending on how often your doctor typically conducts follow up visits. Data will be collected including medical history, medications, blood pressure readings, labs, from the procedure and from any complications if applicable. There is a risk of loss of confidentiality and there may be risks that are not known. There may be no direct benefit but the information learned may help others in the future.

Keywords
Cancer, Drug Studies
Summary

The purpose of this study is to find out if adding a drug called ribociclib to the usual hormone therapy drugs can lower the chance of your breast cancer coming back again. This study is for patients with locoregional, recrrent, resected hormonone receptor positive HER2 negative breast cancer. Endocrine therapy has already been approved by the FDA for your type of cancer. Ribociclib has already been approved by the FDA for your type of cancer that has not been removed by surgery or has spread to other parts of the body.

Receiving ribociclib with endocrine therapy is still being studied and to yet approved by the FDA. Ribociclib is taken as a pill and endocrine therapy is taken as an injection. Participants will receive ribociclib with endocrine therapy for up to 3 years and can receive endocrine therapy alone for an additional two years after stopping ribociclib. Participants can remain on the study for up to 5 years.

Summary

This study is for patients that have been diagnosed with prostate cancer. This study will compare metastasis-free survival, determined using conventional imaging, between men with high-risk prostate cancer randomized to ultrahypofractionation (stereotactic body radiation therapy [SBRT]) to those randomized to moderate hypofractionation and conventional fractionation. Participants can expect to remain in the study for 11 years and 10 months.

A Phase 2 Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study to Assess the Efficacy, Safety, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamic Effects of REGN7544, an Antagonist Monoclonal Antibody to NPR1, in Patients with Sepsis-Induced Hypotension

Researcher
Andrew Goodwin

List of Studies


Keywords
Critical Care
Summary

The study is researching an experimental drug called REGN7544. The study is focused on adult patients (18 to 85 years old) hospitalized due to a serious infection (called "sepsis" in this form) and receiving standard-of-care medications for low blood pressure (called "vasopressors" in this form) due to sepsis. The aim of the study is to see if REGN7544 is safe, tolerable and effective when compared to placebo, by observing the effects on blood pressure and the total amount of vasopressor dose received. The general procedures include collection of information from medical records, some additional testing, such as electrocardiogram, collection of blood, and having blood pressure and heart rate measured .There will also be a screening visit, two telephone visits, and one additional in-person visit. It is expected that taking part in this research will last about 13 weeks (3 months).

OPtimal Adult Heart Transplant Immunosuppression with MicroRNA Levels

Date Added
June 17th, 2025
PRO Number
Pro00145519
Researcher
Ryan Tedford

List of Studies


Keywords
Heart, Transplant
Summary

This study is looking at people who have recently had a heart transplant to see if a simple blood test can help doctors better understand how the immune system is doing. By checking tiny molecules called microRNAs in the blood, researchers hope to find a way to tell if a patient might have problems like infection or rejection of their new heart. The goal is to help adjust medications so patients stay healthier after their transplant. The study involves taking blood samples during regular doctor visits over three years, but it doesn't change any of the usual care the patients would already get.
