NCT03120949
The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of olokizumab (OKZ) 64 mg administered subcutaneously (SC) once every 2 weeks (q2w) or once every 4 weeks (q4w) in subjects with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who previously had completed 24 weeks of double-blind treatment in Study CREDO 1, 2 or 3 (core studies). The long-term efficacy, immunogenicity, the physical function and quality of life of subjects received long-term treatment with OKZ were assessed as well.
NCT04977479
Background: Some people have allergic reactions to COVID-19 mRNA vaccines. Researchers want to learn more about these reactions to provide guidance on who can safely receive the vaccines, including a second dose in people who had a reaction to the first. Objective: To study the safety of giving a second mRNA COVID-19 vaccine dose to people who had a systemic allergic reaction to their first dose. Eligibility: People aged 16-69 who had a systemic allergic reaction to their first dose of COVID-19 vaccine. Design: Individuals who have underlying health issues may need to come to the NIH for screening tests to make sure they are safe to receive the vaccine. People who are eligible to participate in the study will be admitted to the NIH hospital and stay for at least 4 days. They will give urine samples. They will have a nasal swab SARS-CoV-2 test. They will have an intravenous line placed in each arm. They will get the study vaccine (Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine) and one dose of placebo on different days. They will have breathing tests. They may have clinical photography if they develop a rash. Participants will have 4 follow-up visits - 2 by phone and 2 in-person visits at the NIH campus . They will have allergy skin testing at one visit. Drops of different allergens or controls will be placed on their back or arm. The skin under each drop will be scratched with a tool. If the results are negative, a small amount of allergen will be injected just below the surface of their skin. Participants who have no or only a mild allergic reaction to the second dose of the vaccine may be eligible to receive a Booster dose at the NIH. Participation will last for approximately 5 months.
NCT04401176
Recognition of interstitial cystitis (IC)/bladder pain syndrome (BPS) is increasing. There is a dire need to develop effective treatment options for these patients as it manifests as more than a physical disease, affecting general and psychological health as well. Existing trials comparing varying bladder instillation formulations have not identified an optimal bladder instillation therapy, however existing studies support combined heparin and alkalinized lidocaine bladder instillation as an affordable and effective treatment for IC/BPS. Additionally, intradetrusor onabotulinumtoxinA injection has been well established for the treatment of overactive bladder (OAB), a constellation of symptoms similar to that of IC/BPS. OnabotulinumtoxinA has now come into the forefront for treatment of OAB due to its efficacy, safety profile, and absence of cognitive effects related to the previous mainstay anticholinergic treatment. While both bladder instillation and onabotulinumtoxinA therapy have been shown to be effective for treatment of IC/BPS, a direct comparison of these treatments has not been performed. We therefore designed a randomized controlled trial to compare the efficacy of heparin with alkalized local anesthetic bladder instillation versus intradetrusor onabotulinumtoxinA injection in treating IC/BPS symptoms.
NCT03190967
Background: Sometimes breast cancer spreads (metastasizes) to the brain. Researchers want to study new treatments for brain metastases. The drug Temozolomide is approved to treat brain tumors. Researchers want to see if combining it with the drug trastuzumab emtansine (T-DMI) prevents the formation of new metastases in the brain. Objective: To study if Temozolomide with T-DM1 lowers the chance of having new metastases in the brain. Eligibility: Adults at least 18 years old with a human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer that has spread to the brain and was recently treated with stereotactic radiation or surgery. Design: Participants will be screened with * Medical history * Physical exam * Heart tests * A scan (computed tomography (CT) that makes a picture of the body using a small amount of radiation * A scan (magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) that uses a magnetic field to make an image of the brain * Blood tests. * Pregnancy test. The study will be done in 3-week cycles. All participants will get T-DM1 on Day 1 of every cycle through a small plastic tube inserted in an arm vein. Some participants will also take Temozolomide capsules by mouth every day. Participants will keep a medication diary. During the study, participants will also: * Repeat most of the screening tests. * Answer questions about their general well-being and functioning. Participants will have lumbar puncture at least 2 times. A needle is inserted into the spinal canal low in the back and cerebrospinal fluid is collected. This will be done with local anesthesia and with the help of images. Participants will be asked to provide tumor samples when available. Participants will have a follow-up visit about 1 month after stopping the study drug. They will be contacted by telephone or email every 3 months after that.
NCT01742039
The primary aim of this study is to determine the safest and most effective therapeutic strategy to decrease the incidence of postoperative atrial fibrillation following cardiac surgery in an era with shorter ICU and hospital length of stay. A secondary goal is to evaluate the length of hospital stay associated with each treatment strategy.
NCT03330405
Avelumab in combination with talazoparib will be investigated in patients with locally advanced (primary or recurrent) or metastatic solid tumors, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), hormone receptor positive (HR+) breast cancer, recurrent platinum sensitive ovarian cancer, urothelial cancer (UC), and castration resistant prostate cancer (CRPC).
NCT03354663

This clinical investigation will be conducted under an investigational device exemption (IDE) and is intended to support market approval of the TactiCath SE ablation catheter in the United States. One hundred fifty six (156) subjects will be enrolled at up to 35 investigational sites in the US, Europe, and Australia. This clinical investigation is sponsored by Abbott.
NCT00752531
All chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPDs) block air flow to the lungs, and the two most common forms, emphysema and chronic bronchitis, are the most common causes of respiratory failure. Previous research shows that if COPD patients know more about their disease and how to manage it themselves, they will improve their quality of life and reduce their need for urgent care. However, traditional methods of teaching COPD patients about their disease and self-management skills are expensive and require intensive work. A new, less expensive way of reaching a large group of people with this information is needed to help patients stay healthier and happier with their treatment. This study will create a computer program that can help people learn about their disease and how to manage it themselves. This study will then determine whether the computer program, called Home Automated Telemanagement (HAT), helps patients with COPD in managing their disease and following their treatment plans.

Behavioral Weight Loss for Overweight and Obese Cancer Survivors in Maryland: A Demonstration Project
NCT03122106
This is a phase 1 open-label study to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of a neoantigen DNA vaccine strategy in pancreatic cancer patients following surgical resection and adjuvant chemotherapy. The neoantigen DNA vaccines will incorporate prioritized neoantigens and personalized mesothelin epitopes and will be administered with an electroporation device. The hypothesis of this study is that neoantigen DNA vaccines will be safe and capable of generating measurable neoantigen-specific CD4 and CD8 T cell responses.
NCT05483686
The investigators will conduct a randomized controlled trial to test the efficacy of the mobile HIV behavioral intervention for African American transgender women (Shine). Participants will be 215 trans women recruited by staff of the Trans Women of Color Collective via community events and social media. Participants must : 1) identify as a Black transgender woman using the 2-step method (Step 1: assigned male birth sex, Step 2: current gender identity is female); 2) be aged 18 or older; 3) report risk of HIV transmission in past 3 months (i.e., CAS with a serodiscordant or risky partner AND either \<90% ART adherence or \<5 daily doses of PrEP per week); 4) own a smartphone; and 5) be able to read and speak English. Eligible participants who subsequently provide informed consent will complete two confidential phone-based research surveys at different time points (baseline and 6 months post-baseline) and will be randomly assigned to one of two conditions (Shine or mobile HIV education for transgender women). Participants randomly assigned to the experimental condition will be instructed to text the word "Join" to the Shine study phone number. The intervention will take approximately 1-2 hours, with content delivered over several weeks. Participants randomly assigned to the control condition will be texted a link to a set of videos on healthy HIV-related behaviors for transgender women. These videos cover a variety of topics, including recommended testing frequencies, PrEP, and ART. After randomization, participants will complete the baseline research survey. This survey will assess the primary outcome of composite HIV transmission risk along with several secondary outcomes (individual behavioral components of the composite score; HIV medical care utilization and adherence; HIV testing; PrEP knowledge, interest, and uptake; gender affirmation; well-being; social support; sexual communication). Six months after the baseline research survey, all participants will complete a follow-up research survey assessing the same outcome measures in the baseline research survey. Binomial logistic regression will be the main analytic technique for the primary measure (composite risk for HIV transmission). For the secondary continuous measures, hierarchical linear modeling (HLM) will be used. All models will control for any demographic covariate (e.g., age) that varies at the .2 significance level due to randomization failure at baseline.

NCT03690154
This research study is being done in people with advanced-stage solid tumor cancer. Advanced stage solid tumor cancer is a cancer that forms an abnormal mass of tissue that usually does not contain cysts or liquid areas. Different types of solid tumors are named for the type of cells that form them. Examples of solid tumors include lung cancer, breast cancer, prostate cancer, kidney cancer, colorectal cancer, melanoma and sarcoma. The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the safety of the investigational study drug, FN-1501, at different dose levels. FN-1501 has not previously been given to human subjects. It is intended for the treatment in this study of patients with advanced solid tumor cancers. This study will determine the effects, good and/or bad, on patients' cancer. The main objective of this study is to define the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of FN-1501. The MTD is the highest dose a person can take without having bad side effects, and the RP2D will be the dose of FN-1501 used in future studies.
