Summary

BRCA1 mutations are errors in genes that can be inherited and may predispose you to ovarian cancer. This study is for women who have a BRCA1 mutation and have elected to undergo a surgical intervention. Surgical intervention is to compare the non-inferiority of bilateral salpingectomy (BLS) with delayed oophorectomy to bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy (BSO) to reduce the risk of ovarian cancer among individuals with deleterious BRCA1 germline mutations.

Summary

This study is being conducted in women who are at least 22 years old,+ and will be undergoing either a unilateral or bilateral mastectomy with immediate two-stage post-mastectomy alloplastic prepectoral breast reconstruction (initial insertion of a tissue expander on top of the chest wall muscle followed by change-over to a breast implant after a period of tissue expander inflation).

The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Melodi Matrix. .

The Melodi Matrix is an absorbable mesh that contains antibacterial agents (medicines that fight infections caused by bacteria) and is wrapped around tissue expanders before being implanted. After approximately 9 weeks, the mesh will fully absorb into the body.

A Pilot Study of a Remote Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder Monitoring Program for Children in Rural Areas

List of Studies


Keywords
ADD/ADHD
Summary

For this pilot study, children diagnosed with ADHD starting stimulant treatment for the first time, or have not received stimulant treatment in the prior 6 months, in rural settings will be the focus of efforts to improve time to optimal symptom control, in an effort to maximize the treatment benefit for the academic year. We anticipate that more frequent provision of information by families and teachers to medical providers, enabled by technology and remote monitoring tools, will encourage more rapid improvement in symptom burden. This would be achieved through timely, even weekly, titration of medication per the current treatment guidelines, which is only possible with symptom reports.

The goals of this pilot study are 2-fold:
• Evaluate caregiver and teacher utilization of the RAMP platform early in the treatment course of ADHD
• Evaluate provider utilization of the RAMP platform in everyday practice and management of children early in the treatment course of ADHD

Summary

This is a Phase 3, multinational, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, 3-arm, multiple dose level study to investigate the efficacy and safety of subcutaneous injections of amlitelimab in participants aged 12 years and older with moderate-to-severe AD who are on background topical corticosteroids or calcineurin inhibitors and have had an inadequate response to prior biologic or oral JAKi therapy. There will be up to 13 visits including up to a 4-week screening period, a 36 week treatment period, and a post-treatment safety follow up period or a long-term Safety Study for 16 weeks. Subjects will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to the following study arms: amlitelimab Q4W, amlitelimab Q12W, and placebo Q4W.

Summary

This study is for subjects that are premenopausal and have a higher-than-average risk of developing breast cancer. The main purpose of this study is to determine if using change in breast density to guide personalized tamoxifen dosing is better or worse than the usual approach for premenopausal women with dense breast tissue at higher-than-average risk of developing breast cancer. Subjects can expect to be in this study for up to XX months.

Summary

Millions of children are victims of maltreatment each year in the United States. Research on home visiting programs show that child maltreatment can be prevented; however, these programs struggle to reach families in need and provide high quality care. SafeCare is a sustainable and effective home visiting child maltreatment prevention program, serving over 8,000 families each year. This study will examine the feasibility and implementation of a hybrid in-person/virtual delivery model for SafeCare with 12 home visiting providers and 40 caregivers to inform how home visiting programs are delivered to maximize reach to families, improve family outcomes, and decrease harm to children.

A Phase 3, Open-label, Multicenter, Randomized Study of Tarlatamab in Combination with Durvalumab compared With Durvalumab as Maintenance Therapy in Subjects with Extensive-Stage Small-Cell Lung Cancer (ES-SCLC) Following First-Line Induction Therapy with Platinum, Etoposide and Durvalumab

Summary

Researchers are investigating a new way to treat a type of lung cancer called small-cell lung cancer, which is very aggressive and often doesn't respond well to treatment. They're studying a drug called Tarlatamab, which targets a specific protein found on the cancer cells. This drug has already shown some promise when used alone, but now they're testing whether it works even better when combined with another type of cancer treatment called anti-PD-L1 therapy. This combination treatment might help the body's immune system fight the cancer more effectively. The hope is that by using these two treatments together, they can improve outcomes for people with small-cell lung cancer and give them a better chance of survival.

A Randomized Phase II Study of Tepotinib with or without Ramucirumab in Participants with MET Exon 14 Skipping Positive Stage IV or Recurrent Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (Lung-MAP Sub-Study)

List of Studies

Keywords
Cancer/Lung
Summary

This phase II Expanded Lung-MAP treatment trial tests tepotinib with or without ramucirumab for the treatment of patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (stage IV) or that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). Tepotinib is used in patients whose cancer has a mutated (changed) form of a gene called MET. It is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of the abnormal MET protein that signals tumor cells to multiply. This helps slow or stop the spread of tumor cells. Ramucirumab is a monoclonal antibody that may prevent the growth of new blood vessels that tumors need to grow. Giving tepotinib with ramucirumab may lower the chance of the cancer from growing or spreading in patients with stage IV or recurrent non-small cell lung cancer.
