Summary

LiveWell is a telehealth-delivered coping skills training program for people living with advanced lung cancer. LiveWell teaches skills from dialectical behavioral therapy, a type of evidence-based psychotherapy, that have been specifically adapted for people living with advanced lung cancer. The skills (e.g., mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, interpersonal effectiveness) are designed to help you live as well as possible, with cancer. We are interested in seeing whether the program can help you to balance your emotions and better manage distress (e.g., anxiety, sadness) and symptoms (e.g., fatigue, breathlessness, pain) that can be common when living with lung cancer.
 
Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: the LiveWell group, or usual care. LiveWell involves meeting with a skills trainer for nine sessions via telemedicine, in addition to receiving usual cancer care. Meetings last 45-60 minutes and are scheduled at a time that works best for them. The participants will not know whether you will be in the LiveWell group or the usual care group before enrolling in the study, but you will know which group you are in after enrolling. Participants in both groups will complete questionnaires four times: at baseline, 5 weeks, 11 weeks later, and 24 weeks after that. For most people, participation will last approximately 5 months.  Participants will be compensated for completing study questionnaires.

Advanced Fibrosis Detection and a Predictive Diagnostic Model for Metabolic Dysfunction-associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD) in Primary Care

Date Added

List of Studies


Keywords
Diabetes, Liver, Obesity
Summary

This proposal evaluates the implementation of a novel, non-interruptive, electronic health record alert for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) fibrosis risk assessment in primary care patients with MASLD using a stepped wedge, cluster randomized design. We will evaluate the clinical outcome of advanced liver fibrosis detection and the implementation outcomes of adoption, penetration, fidelity, and sustainability. This work will generate generalizable data to dramatically enhance MASLD management in primary care.

List of Studies


Keywords

Summary

This study is for patients that have been diagnosed with recurrent, progressive as well as advanced, metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), cervical cancer (CC), melanoma, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) or non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The study is testing an investigational drug called DB-1311. Investigational means it has not been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The primary purpose of the study is to determine the recommended phase II dose of DB-1311 in combination with BNT327 or DB-1311 in combination with DB-1305 by assessing the safety and tolerability. The drug is given to participants by IV infusion. Participants in this study can expect to be in this study for 72 months.

Can MEP conditioning improve corticospinal recruitment of motoneurons in chronic cervical SCI?

PRO Number
Pro00145581
Researcher
Aiko Thompson

List of Studies


Keywords
Movement Disorders, Rehabilitation Studies, Spinal Cord
Summary

The purpose of this research study is to examine the effect of a brain stimulation training to improve the function of brain-spinal cord- muscle connections.Because brain-to-muscle pathways are very important in our movement control, restoring function of these pathways may improve movement problems after injuries. Spinal cord injury causes damage to the brain-to-muscle connection. However, when the injury is "incomplete", there is a possibility that some of the brain-to-muscle pathways are still connected and may be trained to improve movement function. For examining brain-to-muscle pathways, we use a transcranial magnetic stimulator. We hope that the results of this research study will help us develop new treatments for people who have movement disabilities. This study will require about 42 visits over the first 14 weeks, and another 6 visits over an additional 3 months. Each visit will take about 1 ½ hours.
