NCT02979340
Specific Aim 1. Determine if valid results of non-sedated MRI based assessments of liver stiffness and lipid content can be obtained in more than 90% of children and young adults with cystic fibrosis. Specific Aim 2. Determine hepatic lipid content using the HepaFat sequence and liver stiffness using MRE. Investigators will compare the results obtained by MRI with PUSH study grayscale ultrasounds in CF patients with normal, heterogeneous, homogeneous or nodular (cirrhotic) pattern on ultrasound. Specific Aim 3. Creation of an imaging core lab to centralize evaluation of MR imaging data, allow for remote image upload, electronic data storage, and remote image viewing/interpretation. This infrastructure will be utilized to standardize image post processing. Specific Aim 4. Using the longitudinal PUSH study, determine if MRI based imaging improves discrimination of subjects at risk for progression to advanced CF liver disease (development of cirrhosis) compared to using US imaging alone
NCT05948930
The prevalence of dementia will double in the next three decades in the U.S.; effective treatment or prevention for dementia is urgently needed. The current exploratory project aims to evaluate and understand how the brain and cognition may improve after a 12-week intervention that combines brain training and aerobic exercise training to improve brain function, both in those with mild cognitive impairment (some with possible prodromal Alzheimer's disease) and with healthy aging. Findings from this pilot project will guide and refine the development of a future larger clinical trial that aligns with the goals of the National Alzheimer's Plan of Action (NAPA), especially regarding "Prevent and Effectively Treat Alzheimer's Disease (AD) by 2025.
NCT01144507
The specific aims for this study are: 1. To determine if sonographic findings predict the risk of progression of liver disease to cirrhosis by comparing cystic fibrosis subjects with heterogeneous echogenicity pattern on ultrasound to those with normal echogenicity pattern on ultrasound 2. To develop a database and biorepository of serum, plasma, urine and DNA to aid the investigations in ascertaining the mechanisms, consequences, genetic risk factors and biomarkers for the development of cirrhosis 3. To determine if there are differences in health related quality of life, pulmonary or nutritional status in children with cystic fibrosis who have a heterogeneous echo pattern on ultrasound compared to those who have a normal echo pattern on ultrasound 4. To determine if Doppler velocity measurements of hepatic and splenic vessels predict an increased risk for the development of cirrhosis. 5. To determine if cirrhosis on ultrasound progresses to portal hypertension during the study period 6. To determine if homogeneous liver progresses to either cirrhosis or heterogeneous liver. 7. To determine the frequency of complications of portal hypertension during follow up in those identified with cirrhosis by year 6 of the study
NCT02632708
The purpose of this Phase I, multicenter, clinical trial is to evaluate the safety of AG-120 and AG-221 when given in combination with standard AML induction and consolidation therapy. The study plans to evaluate up to 2 dose levels of AG-120 in participants with an isocitrate dehydrogenase protein 1 (IDH1) mutation and up to 2 dose levels of AG-221 in participants with an isocitrate dehydrogenase protein 2 (IDH2) mutation. AG-120 or AG-221 will be administered with 2 types of AML induction therapies (cytarabine with either daunorubicin or idarubicin) and 2 types of AML consolidation therapies (mitoxantrone with etoposide \[ME\] or cytarabine). After consolidation therapy, participants may continue on to maintenance therapy and receive daily treatment with single-agent AG-120 or AG-221 until relapse, development of an unacceptable toxicity, or hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). The study will end when all participants have discontinued study treatment.
NCT05566769
NMOSDCopilot is a digital tool developed for the self-assessment of Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder symptoms that impact patients' functioning and quality of life. It has been co-designed with the help of patient advocacy groups, NMOSD patients and medical experts. It includes a smartphone-based application for patients, connected to a web portal developed for healthcare professionals (HCSPs). The patient application is composed of vision, walking, cognition, and dexterity e-active tests inspired by clinical standards, as well as e-questionnaires. The HCP web portal is a desktop-based software that allows HCPs to access the results generated via the patient application and facilitates remote monitoring of patients' symptoms. The objectives of this study are to validate the accuracy, reliability and reproducibility of the unsupervised at-home self-assessment of symptoms on the patient's smartphone versus the standard in-clinic testing, as well as to evaluate the safety of use of the tool, its usability, and satisfaction towards the patient application among NMOSD patients, and the HCP web dashboard among HCPs.

NCT05616949
The United States is experiencing an unprecedented opioid epidemic with a rapid increase in overdose deaths. Medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD) including methadone, buprenorphine, and extended-release naltrexone are efficacious and the recommended standard of care, yet barriers to sustained MOUD treatment reduce the overall efficacy of MOUD. Rates of MOUD retention are alarmingly low and MOUD dropout predicts opioid use/relapse, overdose, and death. While previous research has identified predictors of MOUD retention and adherence, there are no evidence-based interventions to improve MOUD retention. Recovery support services are a broad set of strategies to promote healthy outcomes among individuals with substance use disorder (SUD) that are typically separate from standard professional treatment. Among those strategies most utilized are peer recovery support services (PRSS) and recovery residences (RRs). PRSS include coaching, mentoring, education, and other supports delivered by individuals uniquely qualified by their lived experience with SUD. PRSS are increasingly utilized in a range of clinical settings, and advantages of PRSS include inherent shared understanding of addiction and a high degree of acceptance and understanding that is not found in most professional relationships. Existing research tentatively supports PRSS; however, the evidence to date is sparse and comes with significant methodological limitations and inconsistencies that make it difficult to conclude the efficacy of PRSS. No studies have examined the role of PRSS in promoting retention in MOUD. RRs provide a supportive living environment for persons in recovery from SUD and are widely utilized in the United States with an estimated 17,943 residences in 2020. Despite their proliferation, the evidence for RRs is only moderate and diminished by methodological weaknesses. Further, individuals on MOUD seeking housing through RRs often face increased MOUD-related stigma or may be disqualified from a RR for taking MOUD and need additional support to navigate these challenges. The potential synergistic benefits of combining PRSS and RRs to improve MOUD retention are considerable. PRSS and RRs are already mainstays in the recovery support services repertoire and could be leveraged to support MOUD retention. For example, more frequent, informal outreach typical of PRSS could facilitate regular monitoring of shifting attitudes and behaviors related to MOUD. The structure and accountability embedded in RRs could be used to support MOUD adherence and retention. Waxing and waning motivation to participate in MOUD treatment is common, and standard treatment is often unsuccessful at identifying early signs of future dropout or facilitating re-engagement after dropout. We will recruit participants on MOUD in RRs and provide them with PRSS using approaches such as recovery coaching and care navigation with a particular focus on supporting retention in MOUD care. PRSS will also provide assertive outreach between episodes of care, emphasize continuation in treatment and other recovery activities after leaving a RR (either successfully or unsuccessfully), and emphasize return to care after treatment dropout and/or relapse. The peers will be deeply embedded within the local provider community and care continuum to facilitate ease of care navigation. The ultimate goal of our research agenda is to test the efficacy of a PRSS intervention among individuals with OUD living in RRs through a rigorous trial. The eventual trial design would be informed by preparatory activities and experience proposed in this planning project. Preparatory activities proposed in this project include three major phases. Phase 1 - preparation for the intervention including: building a network of RRs that will be recruitment sites in the pilot RCT, recruiting and training peer support specialists, conducting focus groups and interviews to gather stakeholder input, and developing PRSS approaches to promote MOUD retention. Phase 2 - pilot test the PRSS intervention by randomizing N=50 individuals on MOUD recruited from collaborating RRs to either: a 24-week course of the PRSS intervention added to usual services, or usual services without the PRSS intervention. Phase 3 - gather additional input from former participants and RR staff post-intervention to further refine the intervention, and use lessons learned to inform our trial design and data collection procedures for the next-step R01 application.
