Enhancing Wound Perfusion in High-Risk Lower Extremity Orthopaedic Surgery: A Feasibility Study on Nitropaste Using Intraoperative SPY Imaging.
The purpose of this phase 3, randomized, placebo controlled, event-driven study is to assess the effect of AZD0780, an oral PCSK9 inhibitor, compared with placebo in reducing the risk of MACE-PLUS in patients with established ASCVD or at high risk for a first ASCVD event. The effect of AZD0780 vs placebo on the risk of MACE-PLUS will be evaluated from randomisation until the primary analysis censoring date (PACD). The Study Closure Visit will be scheduled to occur after the PACD and will be the final visit for each participant in the study.
This is a phase 2 pragmatic study at a single site that evaluates the clinical benefit of SLNB in patients with high-risk cSCC and cN0. The primary goal is to evaluate the efficacy of SLNB based on the DFS rate at 2 years post-definitive therapy.
This study is developed by the investigator and is a, phase I, single arm, clinical trial that will enroll subjects with untreated diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLCBL) at high risk for poor outcome. The types of treatments given will be shared with participants. The aims are: 1. To assess the safety and how well the participants tolerate the treatment 2. Assess the response of the tumor to treatment to estimate complete response 3. Assess the response of the tumor to treatment to estimate progression-free survival
This is a single-arm, open-label, multicenter, phase II clinical study to evaluate the tolerability, safety, and preliminary efficacy of intravesical administration of Herpes Virus T3011 Injection in participants with BCG-unresponsive high risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) .
The purpose of the study is to demonstrate superiority of Saruparib (AZD5305) relative to placebo added to a standard radiation therapy (RT) + androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) regimen by assessment of metastases-free survival in participants with high-risk and very high-risk localised/locally advanced prostate cancer with a breast cancer gene mutation (BRCAm).
This clinical trial studies whether a patient navigation (PN) intervention can be used to improve risk management among women at high risk of breast cancer. Women with a family history of breast cancer have a higher lifetime risk of developing it. Risk management can benefit women at high risk of breast cancer and can include surveillance routines, preventative surgeries, and medications that can dramatically lower the risk of breast cancer and allow early detection. Although risk management can benefit women at high risk of breast cancer, only a small amount actually use it. PN is a healthcare service that is designed to guide a patient through the healthcare system and reduce barriers to timely screening, follow-up, diagnosis, treatment, and supportive care. The PN intervention in this study is designed to help give women the information and support they need to make choices about their breast cancer risk that they feel good about, which may improve risk management.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effect of Elranatamab therapy after cilta-cel measuring how long a patient with high risk relapsed myeloma lives without the myeloma getting worse(progressing), also known as progression-free survival (PFS). Patients with clinical high-risk myeloma, defined as having history of myeloma that has grown outside of the bones or having high risk mutations in the myeloma cells, benefit less from cilta-cel compared to myeloma patients without these characteristics.
The purpose of this study is to see if giving participants quisinostat will prevent participants' uveal melanoma tumor from spreading. The researchers want to find out the effects that quisinostat has on participants' condition.
This phase I/II trial studies the safety, side effects, and best dose of decitabine in combination with fludarabine, cytarabine, filgrastim, and idarubicin (FLAG-Ida) and total body irradiation (TBI) followed by a donor stem cell transplant in treating adult patients with cancers of blood-forming cells of the bone marrow (myeloid malignancies) that are at high risk of coming back after treatment (relapse). Cancers eligible for this trial are acute myeloid leukemia (AML), myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), and chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML). Decitabine is in a class of medications called hypomethylation agents. It works by helping the bone marrow produce normal blood cells and by killing abnormal cells in the bone marrow. The FLAG-Ida regimen consists of the following drugs: fludarabine, cytarabine, filgrastim, and idarubicin. These are chemotherapy drugs that work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Filgrastim is in a class of medications called colony-stimulating factors. It works by helping the body make more neutrophils, a type of white blood cell. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays, particles, or radioactive seeds to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. TBI is radiation therapy to the entire body. Giving chemotherapy and TBI before a donor peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) transplant helps kill cancer cells in the body and helps make room in the patient's bone marrow for new blood-forming cells (stem cells) to grow. When the healthy stem cells from a donor are infused into a patient, they may help the patient's bone marrow make more healthy cells and platelets. Giving decitabine in combination with FLAG-Ida and TBI before donor PBSC transplant may work better than FLAG-Ida and TBI alone in treating adult patients with myeloid malignancies at high risk of relapse.
This phase II trial tests the safety, side effects, and effectiveness of asparaginase Erwinia chrysanthemi during induction chemotherapy followed by consolidation chemotherapy in treating high-risk adults with newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia or lymphoblastic lymphoma. Asparaginase Erwinia chrysanthemi, a type of protein synthesis inhibitor, is a drug that is made up of the enzyme asparaginase, which comes from the bacterium Erwinia chrysanthemi, and is used with other drugs in people who cannot take asparaginase that comes from the bacterium E. coli. Asparaginase Erwinia chrysanthemi breaks down the amino acid asparagine and may stop the growth of cancer cells that need asparagine to grow. It may also kill cancer cells. Induction therapy, consisting of cytarabine, dexamethasone, vincristine, daunorubicin, methotrexate, and rituximab, is the first choice of treatment. Consolidation therapy, consisting of cyclophosphamide, cytarabine, vincristine, mercaptopurine, methotrexate and rituximab, is given after initial therapy to kill any remaining cancer cells. Vincristine is in a class of medications called vinca alkaloids. It works by stopping cancer cells from growing and dividing and may kill them. Methotrexate is in a class of medications called antimetabolites. It is also a type of antifolate. Methotrexate stops cells from using folic acid to make deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and may kill cancer cells. Rituximab is a monoclonal antibody. It binds to a protein called CD20, which is found on B cells (a type of white blood cell) and some types of cancer cells. This may help the immune system kill cancer cells. Cyclophosphamide is in a class of medications called alkylating agents. It works by damaging the cell's DNA and may kill cancer cells. It may also lower the body's immune response. Cytarabine and mercaptopurine stop cells from making DNA and may kill cancer cells. They are a type of antimetabolite. Daunorubicin blocks a certain enzyme needed for cell division and DNA repair and may kill cancer cells. It is a type of anthracycline antibiotic and a type of topoisomerase inhibitor. Dexamethasone is in a class of medications called corticosteroids. It is used to reduce inflammation and lower the body's immune response to help lessen the side effects of chemotherapy drugs. Giving asparaginase Erwinia chrysanthemi with induction chemotherapy followed by consolidation chemotherapy may be safe, tolerable, and/or effective in treating high-risk adults with newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia or lymphoblastic lymphoma.
Exertional heat stroke (EHS) affects \~500 Military Personnel and over 100 Soldiers every year, and it is believed that these numbers are underreported. EHS is the most severe form of exertional heat illness (EHI) and can result in substantial, long-lasting organ damage, and even death in severe cases. Based on current knowledge and training needs, it is impossible to prevent every EHS - which shifts the focus from exclusively prevention to a combination of prevention, treatment, and enhancing recovery as much as possible. While many risk factors have been identified and there are adequate treatments available, biomarkers associated with heat stroke risk, recovery, and return-to-duty (RTD) remain largely unclear. The purpose of the proposed study is to enhance knowledge surrounding biomarkers of EHS and long-term health consequences that result from EHS. The investigators will recruit research volunteers for a field study in order to collect pre-, post-, and follow-up measures from a high-risk EHS event (i.e. ruck marches, timed runs) this will allow us to have a basis for comparison between Soldiers who collapse with EHS (from previously collected data) and those that complete high-risk events, but do not collapse. This will allow for comparison between the groups to identify EHS-specific biomarkers that could aid in recovery and RTD decisions for Soldiers.
A single center, open label, interventional, phase II trial for donor transplant for high risk hemoglobinopathies and other red cell transfusion dependent disorders utilizing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) regimens.
The goal of this study is to test if the addition of a novel income-poverty targeted supportive care intervention (Pediatric Resource Intervention to Support Equity \[Pediatric RISE\]) to usual supportive care for low-income children with high-risk neuroblastoma can improve parent- and child-centered outcomes. Participants will be randomized to receive one of the following for 6-months: * Usual supportive care alone or * Usual supportive care plus Pediatric RISE
The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy of ravulizumab vs placebo in reducing the severity of DGF as measured by time to freedom from dialysis in adult participants who are at high risk of DGF after undergoing transplant of deceased donor kidney.
Aspirin is recommended in high risk patients to reduce the risk of preeclampsia and preterm birth, which are leading causes of both maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality, but up to 20% will have these adverse outcomes despite therapy. Gaps in knowledge regarding pregnancy specific aspirin pharmacology and the relationship of aspirin response and pregnancy outcome, along with a lack of consensus on aspirin dosing has limited the effective use of this intervention. The investigators aim to apply principles of clinical pharmacology to determine how to optimally utilize this low cost medication to improve maternal/child health outcomes. This is a Phase I/II randomized controlled trial of high risk pregnancies recommended aspirin; participants will be randomized to take aspirin either 162mg once daily, or 81mg twice a day. Outcomes evaluated will include the difference in aspirin response between these two dosing regimens, the individual factors that impact aspirin pharmacology in pregnancy, and evaluate markers or aspirin response that may be associated with pregnancy outcome.
Antenatal nonstress tests (NSTs) are performed to assess fetal health and are used as a cost-effective test that can be widely administered. However, an NST is operator-dependent due to the nature of Doppler ultrasound and is primarily performed in a clinic and hospital setting. The ability to conduct a clinically valuable test at home would address access to care issues faced by numerous women in the United States and reduce the workload on healthcare clinicians facing a shortage of human resources. This pilot study aims to assess the feasibility and acceptability of home NST monitoring in order to determine whether femomTM could be utilized as an adjunct to routine prenatal care. Patients with high risk pregnancies who are recommended to undergo at least once weekly at 32 weeks testing by the obstetrician will be recruited for participation in this study. Participants will be asked to perform three 30 minute monitoring sessions weekly starting at 32 weeks for 6 weeks.
This is a single-arm pilot clinical trial evaluating dalbavancin-based prophylaxis in children and adolescents with acute myeloid leukemia or relapsed lymphoblastic leukemia receiving myelosuppressive chemotherapy. Primary objective: - To estimate the rate of bacterial bloodstream infection in pediatric patients with AML or relapsed ALL undergoing chemotherapy receiving dalbavancin-based prophylaxis Secondary objectives: * To describe the population pharmacokinetics of every 28 days dalbavancin up to 12 weeks in pediatric patients with AML or relapsed ALL undergoing chemotherapy * To describe the tolerability of every 28 days dalbavancin prophylaxis in pediatric patients with AML or relapsed ALL undergoing chemotherapy * To describe the acceptability of every 28 days dalbavancin prophylaxis in pediatric patients with AML or relapsed ALL undergoing chemotherapy * To estimate the rates of likely bacterial infections, Clostridioides difficile infection, and febrile neutropenia in pediatric patients receiving dalbavancin-based prophylaxis
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if intermediate-intensity conditioning therapy followed by a cord blood transplant can help to control high-risk hematological malignancies in patients who need a second allogeneic stem cell transplantation.
This Phase 1/2 trial aims to determine the safety and feasibility of administration of autologous chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells targeting the human Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK) receptor in pediatric subjects with relapsed or refractory neuroblastoma (NB). The trial will be conducted in two phases: Phase 1 will determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of autologous hALK.CAR T cells using a 3+3 dose escalation design. Phase 2 will be an expansion phase to determine rates of response to hALK.CAR T cells.
The study is a Phase II clinical trial. Patients will receive intensity-modulated total marrow irradiation (TMI) at a dose of 9 Gray (Gy) with standard myeloablative fludarabine intravenous (IV) and targeted busulfan (FluBu4) conditioning prior to allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis will include Cyclophosphamide on Day +3 and +4, tacrolimus, and mycophenolate mofetil.
This research is being done to find out more about the potential risks and benefits of early treatment in participants with high risk Clonal Cytopenia of Unknown Significance (CCUS). This study will give eligible CCUS participants the option of either being observed or taking an oral drug as treatment. The names of the study drug involved in this study is: -Decitabine/cedazuridine (DEC/CED) (a nucleoside metabolic inhibitor and cytidine deaminase inhibitor).
Male adults with a confirmed diagnosis of prostate adenocarcinoma who meet criteria for localized high risk prostate cancer according to the NCCN guidelines and who are eligible for prostatectomy will be invited to participate. Criteria for high-risk prostate cancer include patients with preoperative prostate biopsy score of Gleason 8 (GS8) (Grade group 4 \[GG4\]) or higher. Patients also need to have a positive PSMA scan on 68-Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT scan.
Researchers are looking for new ways to treat triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and hormone receptor (HR) low positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2) negative breast cancer. The main goals of this study are to learn: * About the safety of the study treatments and if people tolerate them * If people who receive patritumab deruxtecan, pembrolizumab, and chemotherapy before surgery have fewer cancer cells removed during surgery compared to those who receive only pembrolizumab (pembro) and chemotherapy.
The main objective of this study is to determine the safety of Ex Vivo Cross Linking (CXL) of donor corneal tissue in participants who have undergone high-risk penetrating keratoplasty.
Severe low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) is a serious problem for people with diabetes. It can lead to dangerous falls, heart problems, memory issues, and even death. However, many healthcare providers don't recognize or manage this problem well. The investigators believe that creating a clear set of guidelines for preventing hypoglycemia, along with having a clinical pharmacist actively help high-risk patients, can make diabetes treatment safer. In this study, the investigators developed a simple, evidence-based guide called "Hypoglycemia on a Page" (HOAP) to prevent low blood sugars. The investigators then tested it by comparing two groups of patients with type 2 diabetes who are at high risk for hypoglycemia. One group received active support from a clinical pharmacist using the HOAP guidelines, while the other group received standard care. The main goal of this study is to see if the pharmacist's support leads to safer diabetes treatment. The investigators will also look at other factors, such as whether patients are prescribed glucagon (a medicine for severe low blood sugar), if they use continuous glucose monitoring, and whether they have worse blood sugar control or end up in the hospital for hypoglycemia. This trial aims to improve patient safety, health outcomes, and possibly lower healthcare costs.
This early phase I trial tests the safety and side effects of allogeneic CMV-specific CD19-CAR T cells plus CMV-MVA vaccine and how well it works in treating patients with high-risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia after a matched related donor (allogeneic) hematopoietic stem cell transplant (alloHSCT). Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy is a type of treatment in which T cells (a type of immune system cell) are changed in the laboratory so they will attack cancer cells. T cells are taken from a patient's blood, in this study, the T cells are cytomegalovirus (CMV) specific. Then the gene for a special receptor that binds to a certain protein, CD19, on the patient's cancer cells is added to the CMV-specific T cells in the laboratory. The special receptor is called a CAR. Large numbers of the CAR T cells are grown in the laboratory and given to the patient by infusion for treatment of certain cancers. Vaccines made from three CMV tumor associated antigens, may help the body build an effective immune response to kill cancer cells. Giving allogeneic CMV-specific CD19-CAR T cells plus CMV-MVA vaccine after matched related alloHSCT may be safe, tolerable, and/or effective in treating patients with high-risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
This phase II trial tests how well itraconazole works in combination with standard of care endoscopy with ablation for the prevention of esophageal cancer in patients with high-risk Barrett's esophagus (BE). BE is a condition in which the lining of the esophagus changes. The tissue that lines the esophagus becomes more like the tissue that lines the intestine. People with Barrett's esophagus have a higher risk of developing esophageal cancer. Itraconazole is a drug used to prevent or treat fungal infections. It belongs to the family of drugs called antifungal agents. Ablation refers to the removal of abnormal tissue using heat. Endoscopy is a procedure for looking at the esophagus using a long, flexible tube called an endoscope, which has a video camera at the end. Radiofrequency ablation is a type of heat therapy that uses radiofrequency energy (similar to microwave heat) to destroy the abnormal tissue in the esophagus. Giving itraconazole in combination with standard of care endoscopy with ablation may improve the effects of ablation and prevent esophageal cancer in patients with high-risk Barrett's esophagus.
The purpose of this Study is to assist in implementing a practical, easy-to-adopt lifestyle intervention that optimizes patient outcomes and minimizes pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) risk.
A serious consequence of systemic diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is secondary central nervous system (CNS) relapse, which occurs in approximately 5% of all patients. Many CNS relapses occur within the first year after completion of frontline treatment and are associated with significantly increased mortality; thus, it is important to tailor frontline treatment to provide prophylaxis against CNS relapse in those patients who are determined to be high-risk. Autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is standard of care for patients with DLBCL who relapse one year or more after first remission, and it has been shown to improve progression-free survival for patients with primary CNS lymphoma. The four-drug BEAM regimen (carmustine, etoposide, cytarabine, and melphalan) is the preferred conditioning regimen for DLBCL patients undergoing ASCT; however, patients with primary CNS lymphoma receive thiotepa plus carmustine as their conditioning regimen due to its better CNS penetration. This study tests the hypothesis that consolidation thiotepa/carmustine ASCT in first complete remission will reduce the risk of CNS relapse in transplant-eligible patients with DLBCL with no prior CNS disease at high risk of secondary CNS recurrence.
