BBI-355 is an oral, potent, selective checkpoint kinase 1 (or CHK1) small molecule inhibitor in development as an ecDNA (extrachromosomal DNA) directed therapy (ecDTx). This is a first-in-human, open-label, 3-part, Phase 1/2 study to determine the safety profile and identify the maximum tolerated dose and recommended Phase 2 dose of BBI-355 administered as a single agent or in combination with select therapies.
The goal of this project is to compare aided and unaided speech discrimination among infants with hearing loss and a cohort of infants with typical hearing. Working Hypothesis: Among this group of infants with hearing loss, performance will be significantly better when infants are tested while using amplification (i.e., aided condition) compared to when tested without amplification (i.e., unaided condition). Infants fit with optimally programmed amplification will perform similarly to the infants with typical hearing on speech discrimination tasks.
The purpose of the study is the identification of amplification level in human breast tissue. The imaging system is intended for diagnostic use as an aid to the pathologist in the detection, counting and classification of Her2 FISH stained tissue samples.
This is a first-in-human (FIH), open-label, multicenter, dose escalation and dose expansion study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics, and preliminary antitumor activity of BGB-53038 as monotherapy in participants with advanced or metastatic solid tumors harboring KRAS mutations or amplification, as well as when used in combination with tislelizumab (also known as BGB-A317) in participants with nonsquamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and used in combination with cetuximab in participants with colorectal cancer (CRC). The study consists of 2 phases: Phase 1a Dose Escalation and Safety Expansion and Phase 1b Dose Expansion.
Stroke is a leading cause of disability in the United States, affecting approximately 795,000 people annually. The Veteran's Health Administration provides over 60,000 outpatient visits for stroke-related care annually at a cost of over $250 million. Among ambulatory people with chronic stroke (PwCS), impaired balance is a common health concern that substantially limits mobility (those with the worst balance walk the least). This project will explore adaptive strategies employed by PwCS in balance challenging environments and if a novel gait training intervention using a robotic device to amplify a person's self-generated movements can improve walking balance. The development of effective interventions to increase walking balance among PwCS will positively impact Veterans' health, quality of life, and ability to participate in walking activities.
This phase II MATCH treatment trial tests how well palbociclib (PD-0332991) works in treating patients with cancer that has certain genetic changes. Palbociclib (PD-0332991) is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It is used in patients whose cancer has a certain mutation (change) in the CDK4 or CDK6 gene. It works by blocking the action of mutated CDK4 or CDK6 that signals cancer cells to multiply. This helps to stop or slow the spread of cancer cells.
This phase II MATCH treatment trial tests how well JNJ-42756493 (erdafitinib) works in treating patients with tumors that have more copies of the FGFR gene than is normal (amplification). Erdafitinib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of an abnormal FGFR protein that signals cancer cells to multiply.
This study will test the effects of a 6-week comprehensive circadian optimization intervention Amplify-RHYTHM in patients with diabetic retinopathy. The outcomes of interest are objective and subjective sleep parameters, evening salivary cortisol and melatonin levels, and glucose parameters from continuous glucose monitoring
Background: About 90,000 new cases of brain and spinal cord tumors are diagnosed annually in the United States. Most of these tumors are benign; however, about 30% are malignant, and 35% of people with malignant tumors in the brain and spinal cord will die within 5 years. Many of these people have changes in certain genes (MYC or MYCN) that drive the development of their cancers. Objective: To test a study drug (PLX038) in people with tumors of the brain or spinal cord. Eligibility: People aged 18 years or older with a tumor of the brain or spinal cord. Some participants must also have tumors with changes in the MYC or MYCN genes. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam and blood tests. They will have imaging scans and a test of their heart function. They may need to have a biopsy: A sample of tissue will be removed from their tumor. PLX038 is given through a tube attached to a needle inserted into a vein in the arm. All participants will receive PLX038 on the first day of each 21-day treatment cycle. They will take a second drug 3 days later to help reduce the risk of infection; for this drug, participants will be shown how to inject themselves under the skin at home. Blood tests, imaging scans, and other tests will be repeated during study visits. Hair samples will also be collected during these visits. Some participants may have an additional biopsy. Study treatment will continue up to 7 months. Follow-up visits will continue every few months for up to 5 years.
The proposed study consists of two phases. During Phase 1, the investigators will recruit a small sample of participants to complete a psychosocial intervention termed Amplification of Positivity (AMP) for individuals experiencing comorbid depression or anxiety disorders and alcohol use disorder (AMP-A). These participants will be asked to provide both qualitative and quantitative input about the AMP-A intervention. Based on their input and clinician input, the AMP-A manual will be modified for use in Phase 2. The goal is to recruit up to 20 participants in order to ensure there will be at least 8 participants who complete all sessions of AMP-A. Phase 2 is a randomized clinical trial (RCT) protocol in which individuals experiencing comorbid depression or anxiety disorders and alcohol use disorder will be randomized to complete AMP-A or an evidence-based cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) intervention. Up to 100 participants will be recruited in order to reach a target of N=60. Assessed outcomes will include participant acceptability and completion rates, participant compliance with the intervention, positive and negative affect, substance use- and depression and anxiety-related symptom severity, functional disability, and neural reactivity to reward and alcohol cues during functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI).
The overall goal of this project is to develop a novel transdiagnostic behavioral treatment -- Amplification of Positivity (AMP) -- intended to enhance positive social connections in individuals with elevated anxiety and/or depression. Social relationship impairments are common and debilitating consequences of anxiety and depression. Existing treatments have some beneficial impact on social functioning; however, many people continue to have few and/or poor quality relationships following treatment, even after experiencing symptom relief. This study will evaluate the effects of AMP on the brain systems that have been shown to be important for establishing positive connections with others. Approximately 100 individuals (ages 18-55) seeking treatment for anxiety or depression will participate in this study. Participants will be randomly assigned with equal probability to either AMP or stress management training (SMT) (6 sessions each). Participants will be assessed at baseline and post-treatment and compared on measures assessing brain responses to social reward (primary outcome), as well as physiological, behavioral, and emotional responses to social reward (secondary outcomes). It is hypothesized that the AMP group will experience greater increases from pre- to post-treatment in activity in brain systems that regulate the processing of social reward cues (e.g., striatum) relative to participants in the SMT group. It is also hypothesized that changes in brain activation to social reward from pre- to post-treatment will be correlated with the degree of improvement in social connectedness.
The purpose of this study is to examine the feasibility of a protocol in which individuals with comorbid depression or anxiety disorders and alcohol use disorder will be randomized to complete Amplification of Positivity for Alcohol Use Disorder (AMP-A)- a psychological treatment focused on increasing positive thoughts, emotions, and behaviors- or a traditional cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) intervention. Assessed outcomes will include participant acceptability and completion rates, participant compliance with the intervention, positive and negative affect, substance use- and depression and anxiety-related symptom severity, and functional disability.
This phase II trial studies the effect of larotrectinib in treating patients with NTRK gene amplification positive solid tumors that have spread to nearby tissues or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or other places in the body (metastatic). Larotrectinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
This phase II MATCH treatment trial identifies the effects of palbociclib in patients whose cancer has genetic changes called CCND1, 2, or 3 amplification. Palbociclib blocks proteins called CDK4 and CDK6, which may stop cancer cell growth when CCND1, 2, or 3 amplifications are present. Researchers hope to learn if palbociclib will shrink this type of cancer or stop its growth.
Describe the safety and adverse events associated with Abemaciclib 150 mg orally twice daily when administered with Bevacizumab 10 mg/kg intravenously every 2 weeks to recurrent GBM patients with specific tumor molecular aberrations
The primary objective of this study is to obtain a greater understanding of the range in benefit from acoustic amplification combined with electric stimulation in cochlear implant recipients with low-frequency hearing who do not currently use the commercially approved Advanced Bionics Acoustic Earhook. The aims of this study are to 1) obtain subjective sound quality judgements of recorded speech and music samples, 2) assess vocal emotion perception, and 3) evaluate post-operative speech perception and sound field detection thresholds in CI recipients both with and without use of the acoustic ear hook.
The objective of this study protocol is to determine the efficacy of using aided measures of spectral resolution to set the dynamic range of hearing with hearing-aid amplification. Measures of spectral resolution will be obtained, as will measures of speech recognition.

This research study is studying a targeted therapy as a possible treatment for cancer abnormality in one of the following genes: CCND1, CCND2, CCND3, CDK4, or CDK6. The drug involved in this study is: -Abemaciclib
This phase II trial studies how well AZD1775 works in treating patients with solid tumors with CCNE1 amplification that have spread to other places in the body (advanced) and do not respond to treatment (refractory). AZD1775 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
This Phase II, open-label, single-arm study evaluated the anti-cancer activity of derazantinib in subjects with inoperable or advanced intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA) who received at least one prior regimen of systemic therapy. Patients received an oral once-daily total dose of 300 mg derazantinib capsules.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of neratinib in combination with everolimus, palbociclib, or trametinib in participants with solid tumors with EGFR mutation/amplification, HER2 mutation/amplification, HER3/4 mutation, or KRAS mutation that do not respond to treatment (refractory) and have spread to other parts of the body (advanced or metastatic). Neratinib, palbociclib, and trametinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as everolimus, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving neratinib with everolimus, palbociclib, or trametinib may work better than neratinib alone in treating participants with solid tumors.
The purpose of this study was to use participant samples to simultaneously evaluate three nucleic acid amplification tests (NAATs) diagnostic platforms.
This is a proof of concept, single-arm study to investigate crenolanib monotherapy in patients with recurrent/refractory glioblastoma with PDGFRA gene amplification by assessing the progression-free survival (PFS) at 6 months. Crenolanib will be given orally starting at 100 mg TID continuously until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or consent withdrawal.
This study seeks to determine whether the addition of ABT-414 to concomitant radiotherapy and temozolomide (TMZ) followed by combination of ABT-414 with adjuvant TMZ prolongs overall survival (OS) among participants with newly diagnosed glioblastoma (GBM) with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) amplification. In addition, there is a Phase 1, open-label, multicenter sub-study to assess the pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of ABT-414 in participants with newly diagnosed EGFR-amplified GBM who have mild or moderate hepatic impairment.
The purpose of this study was to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of INC280 in combination with erlotinib in the Phase Ib of this study, and to assess the anti-tumor activity and safety of INC280 alone, and in combination with erlotinib, versus platinum with pemetrexed in the Phase II of this study, in adult patients with EGFR mutated, cMET amplified, advanced/metastatic non-small cell lung cancer with acquired resistance to prior EGFR TKI.
Unilateral hearing loss (UHL) in children has been demonstrated to have a negative impact on quality of life, school performance and behavior. Despite this knowledge, it remains unclear how to best manage this common problem. There has been much debate regarding this issue with many programs recommending preferential seating in the classroom and use of a frequency-modulated (FM) system to amplify the teacher's voice in the classroom (conventional measures), and others recommending these accommodations in addition to use of a hearing aid for amplification (amplification). There is very limited research to support or refute the efficacy of a hearing aid in improving measurable academic, behavioral, or quality-of-life (QOL) outcomes in children with UHL. We propose a study evaluating the impact of hearing aid use in school-aged children (ages 6-12 years) with mild to moderately severe UHL. In this study, subjects will be randomized to receive either conventional measures or conventional measures plus amplification. After a three month period, the groups will be reversed, with each subject serving as their own control. Outcome measurements will include patient reported disease-specific QOL reported by patients, parents, and teachers using validated survey instruments at regular intervals throughout the study period.
