The goal of this clinical trial is to learn how hormonal changes over the menstrual cycle affect mood symptoms in reproductive-aged women with depression that worsens during the premenstrual period. The main questions it aims to answer are: --How do fluctuations in estradiol and progesterone across the menstrual cycle affect the ability to experience pleasure and the neural sensitivity to reward in hormone-sensitive, depressed women? And consequently, how does stabilizing the luteal phase decline in estrogen and progesterone (using estradiol patches and progesterone pills) affect these changes? Participants will: * Receive hormones followed by placebo, or vice versa, for a total of four weeks across three menstrual cycles * Complete daily mood ratings * Collect home urine samples for hormone testing * Complete five biobehavioral testing sessions during which neural responses are recorded (via electroencephalography, or EEG) during an acute stress task and computer tasks
One of the Causes of Amenorrhea is hypothalamic amenorrhea, which is a deficiency in the amplitude and/or frequency of endogenous Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) Pulses. The results of this leads to anovulation and cessation of the menstrual cycle. Pulsatile GnRH has been widely used in the United States (US), Canada, and Europe for almost 40 years in the treatment of primary hypothalamic amenorrhea. It has a favorable safety profile and a high degree of effectiveness in enabling ovulation and spontaneous pregnancy. At the moment there are no other GnRH products on the market, nor are there any other drugs marketed for induction of ovulation in women with primary hypothalamic amenorrhea in the US, creating a clear unmet medical need. The goal of this trial is to characterize the exposure variability of GnRH when administered via the OmniPod.
Our Practice Advisory (OPA) are essential tools in clinical decision-making. The alerts are designed to guide providers towards evidence-based practices and improve patient outcomes. The focus of this initiative is on Hemoglobin A1c (A1c) and Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH) testing, with the goal of addressing unnecessary repeat testing within a 30-day timeframe, which rarely yields significant new insights. Although randomization occurs at the patient level, the primary outcome of this study focuses on provider behavior and decision-making. By focusing on this specific intervention, the study aims to optimize resource use, align test ordering with evidence-based guidelines, and support improved patient outcomes. The results of this evaluation will help refine OPAs and guide broader strategies for implementing clinical decision support tools across healthcare systems.
This Phase II study aims to evaluate efficacy and safety of the combination of JSB462 (also known as luxdegalutamide) at 100 mg and 300 mg once a day (QD) doses + abiraterone compared with an androgen receptor pathway inhibitor (ARPI, abiraterone or enzalutamide) in participants with metastatic Hormone Sensitive Prostate Cancer (mHSPC) and to select the recommended dose of the combination for phase III. Towards that end, the totality of the efficacy, safety, tolerability and PK data from participants randomized in the study will be evaluated
The goal of this study is to develop an educational aid about hormone replacement therapy that physicians can share with patients as part of their pre-surgical counseling for a risk-reducing salpingo-oophorectomy (RRSO).
The overall objective of this project is to advance understanding of the causes of normal weight obesity (NWO) in men, namely the hormone profile and related potential mediating mechanisms, and the efficacy of different modes of exercise to restore body composition and cardiometabolic health in this population.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate post-meal appetite hormones and appetite ratings, assessed using visual analog scale (VAS) questionnaires, in response to proprietary beverages in generally healthy adults.
This is a multi-national trial. The goals of the trial are to study LUM-201 as a treatment for Pediatric Growth Hormone Deficiency (PGHD) in naive to treatment children and validate a predictive enrichment marker (PEM) strategy to select subjects likely to respond to therapy with LUM-201.
TRANSPIRE is an observational study of \~200 individuals who (1) will be initiating gender-affirming hormone therapy (GHT) or (2) are gender minority individuals who do not use GHT. The primary outcome will be to identify how the presence of chronic pain changes overtime with GHT through the use of surveys, quantitative sensory testing (QST), brain MRIs, and qualitative interviews. Following recruitment and consent, participants will complete baseline survey measures and will repeat those measures at 1 months, 3 month, 6 months, and 12 months. QST measures, brain MRIs, and Qualitative Interviews will be offered to participants in cohort (1) and will be completed at baseline and 12 months.
Background: Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) is a condition in which women under the age of 40 years have absent or irregular menstrual cycles. POI can cause infertility, signs of menopause, osteoporosis, and other symptoms. Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is a treatment that gives women extra hormones, such as estrogen and progesterone. HRT works well in adult women. Researchers want to find the most effective doses and regimens for adolescents. Objective: To monitor the effects of HRT on adolescents with POI. Eligibility: Female adolescents aged 11 to 19 years diagnosed with POI. Healthy volunteers are also needed. Design: All participants will have clinic visits every 6 months for 2 years. Each visit may last 2 days. Each visit may include: Blood and urine tests. A test of their heart function. A test to measure the stiffness of their blood vessels. Participants will lie flat with a blood pressure cuff on a leg and a meter on the neck while the cuff inflates. A test of their grip strength. Participants will squeeze a handheld device as hard as they can. Two scans to measure bone density. For one, participants will lie on a table while a scanner passes along their body. For the other, participants will sit in a chair and insert their forearm, then their lower leg, into a scanner. A test to measure skin pigmentation. Participants skin will be touched lightly with a device. An optional visual exam of the vagina. Some vaginal fluid may also be collected with a cotton swab/cytobrush. Participants with POI will receive HRT. They will be given estrogen patches and progesterone pills.
