The primary purpose of The PCOS Challenge Study will be to conduct high-quality research where patients are included in the design, and answering the questions that patients identify as important to their lived experience with PCOS. In partnership with clinical investigators, patients will work on the development and management of data collection, the research agenda, and the sharing of research findings. The PCOSC Study will promote the advancement of research that provides reliable, useful, and meaningful information to patients with PCOS and their clinicians. The population for The PCOS Challenge Study will include individuals with a clinical diagnosis of PCOS, individuals self-diagnosed with PCOS, individuals with symptoms of PCOS (e.g., hirsutism, irregular menstrual cycles), and demographic-matched controls without PCOS.
NCT01867320
Background: \- Human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) is an infection of the spinal cord. The infection is caused by a virus that has been known to cause cancers like leukemia and lymphoma. It causes a weakening of the legs. Researchers want to see if raltegravir, a drug for treating human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), can be used to treat HAM/TSP. They will see if the drug can reduce the amount of virus in the blood of people with HAM/TSP. Objectives: \- To see if raltegravir can reduce the viral load of people with HAM/TSP. Eligibility: \- Individuals at least 18 years of age who have HAM/TSP. Design: * Participants will be screened with a physical exam and medical history. Blood samples will be collected. Imaging studies will be performed. A lumbar puncture will also be taken. * Participants will take the study drug twice a day for 6 months. They will note each dose in a study diary, as well as any side effects. * At the 6-month visit, participants will stop taking the study drug. They will have a physical exam and blood samples, as well as other tests. * Participants will have two further exams 9 months and 15 months after starting the study drug. They will have a physical exam and blood samples, as well as other tests.
NCT03272347
This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, antiretroviral activity, and pharmacokinetics of 3 doses of islatravir (MK-8591) in combination with doravirine (DOR) and lamivudine (3TC) administered to antiretroviral treatment-naïve adult participants with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection.
NCT04241562

NCT03194477
Project Narrative This 5-city proposal seeks to address HIV disparities among young (ages 15-24) Black and/or Latinx men who have sex with men (YBLMSM) and transgender women (YBLTW) in a multilevel intervention to identify, engage and retain, high-risk HIV-uninfected and HIV-infected urban YBMSM/TW in the HIV prevention and treatment cascade. The mobile-enhanced engagement intervention (MEI) is driven by the expressed and self-determined needs of each HIV infected and uninfected participant and includes care navigation, engagement, treatment and adherence. MEI also includes a supplemental Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral for Treatment (SBIRT), to support YBLMSM/TW who face barriers accessing substance use treatment. By building upon existing case management services and flexibility to be adapted across ages and maturity and for prevention services, this intervention has the ability to transform networks, HIV and prevention care in YBLMSM/TW in cities with very high primary and secondary HIV transmission.
NCT05791851
The goal of this natural history study is to examine the immune responses to the Heplisav-B vaccine in Veterans living with HIV who were non-responders to prior HBV vaccination. A comparison group of HBV vaccine nonresponders without HIV infection will be enrolled to characterize the HIV-associated immune alterations that affect vaccine response. The investigators hypothesize that TLR9-mediated innate immune stimulation with Heplisav will elicit HBV seroprotection despite prior vaccination failures in persons living with HIV, compared to HIV uninfected individuals. Participants eligible for Heplisav-B vaccination will be asked to provide blood samples at multiple timepoints before and after their vaccination.
NCT00323063
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Imatinib mesylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving gemcitabine together with imatinib mesylate may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying gemcitabine and imatinib mesylate to see how well they work compared to gemcitabine alone in treating patients with previously treated locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer.
NCT02878785
The purpose of this study is to find the best way to combine a new chemotherapy drug with one that is already in use to treat AML. The new experimental drug is called talazoparib (also known as BMN-673), and it is not approved by the Federal Drug Administration (FDA). The FDA is allowing the use of talazoparib for the purposes of this study. Decitabine is used to treat bone marrow diseases called myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), as well as off label for AML. Lab work suggests that talazoparib will increase the effects of decitabine in leukemia cells. Investigators hope that treating patients with decitabine and talazoparib together will be more successful that treating patients with decitabine alone. This study has two parts. The purpose of part one the study is to find out the best doses of decitabine and talazoparib to use when they are given together to treat AML. The purpose of part two is to see how well the drugs work together to treat AML. All participants in the study will be treated with decitabine and talazoparib. Part one of the study will include as few as two people and as many as 36 people to find the best dose levels of the study drugs. Part one will begin enrolling first. Part two of the study will not start until the Part one of the study is complete. Participants will be told which part of the study they may be enrolled in. Part two of the study may include as few as 79 people and as many as 135 people. Part two includes three separate arms. Participants enrolled in Part two of the study, will be assigned to one of the three arms below in order to test the success rate of the study drug dose determined by Part one: * Arm A will enroll adult patients with AML who are thought not to be likely to tolerate or respond to standard chemotherapy; * Arm B will enroll adult patients with AML that has not responded to previous treatment or has come back after responding to previous treatment; * Arm C will enroll adult patients previously treated with a DNA methyltransferase inhibitor (decitabine, azacitidine or guadecitabine). This is a multi-center study. Up to 171 people may take part in this study globally.
NCT01606436

NCT03033901
Background: Sleep disorders, including sleep apnea, are common after traumatic brain injury and affect recovery and negatively influence participation in rehabilitation. Sleep apnea is a breathing problem while persons sleep and causes further brain damage and problems with thinking, daily functioning, and overall health. Earlier diagnosis and treatment is important for traumatic brain injury (TBI) survivors to maximize the recovery process. There is little information that guides TBI doctors on how to identify sleep apnea during inpatient TBI rehabilitation, a phase in which people experience the potential for a rapid pace of improvement. The Agency for Healthcare Research has highlighted gaps in best methods for identifying sleep apnea and separately in helping consumers with TBI rehabilitation choices. Partnering with survivors, caregivers, and administrators, investigators developed this study to compare sleep apnea screening and diagnostic tools in TBI rehabilitation settings. This information will provide clinicians, providers, and patients with the best information for early identification of sleep apnea to remove negative influence on the pace of recovery in early phases after TBI. The Goal: Investigators will compare existing screening (Aim 1) and diagnostic tools (Aim 2) in TBI patients undergoing inpatient rehabilitation. For the second aim, investigators will determine if a more accessible diagnostic test is sufficient to diagnose sleep apnea compared to the traditional method used which is less accessible to consumers. If the more accessible test is good enough, this will increase recognition of this problem and increase patient access to earlier sleep apnea treatment. Stakeholders and Products. TBI survivors, caregivers, researchers, and policymakers working together on this study helped develop the study questions. Idea exchanges included ways to reach clinicians and TBI survivors/caregivers via existing educational programming and online tools for consumers such as fact sheets and patient/caregiver-focused videos. Other traditional methods will include targeting professional magazines, conferences, and research journals that reach professionals working with TBI survivors and their families at the time of admission to rehabilitation and during the recovery process. This study will occur at rehabilitation hospitals around the country who enroll TBI survivors into a lifetime study called the TBI Model System funded by the Department of Health and Human Services and Veterans Affairs (VA).
NCT03965091
The primary objective of the study is to estimate the treatment effect of fremanezumab administered subcutaneously (SC) in reducing pain in adult participants with fibromyalgia (FM). A secondary objective is to evaluate the effect of fremanezumab on other efficacy measures, including pain, quality of life, sleep, fatigue, improvement in health, physical functioning, and mood. Another secondary objective is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of fremanezumab administered SC in adult participants with FM. The total duration of participant participation in the study is planned to be 21 weeks, consisting of a screening period of up to 5 weeks (ranging from 17 to 35 days), and a double-blind treatment period of 16 weeks.
NCT05104840
The rapid spread of SARS-CoV-2 (also known as 2019-nCoV and HCoV-19 1), a novel beta coronavirus B lineage (βCoV), has sparked a global coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic. It has been suggested that RRAR, a unique furin-like cleavage site (FCS) in the spike protein (S) that is absent in other B βCoV lines such as SARS-CoV, is responsible for its high infectivity and transmissibility. Furin is a protein with a special function of a fermentative biocatalyst: which recognizes the degree of maturity of a group of amino acids Functionally, Furin works to renew the body, but it is also a path to the introduction of the SARS-CoV virus into a living human cell, HIV virus, Ebola virus, and others that penetrate a human cell using the Furin protein, sending a conditioned signal from the extracellular matrix, and gives the virus the opportunity to merge the protein of the coronavirus spike and the protein content of the cut cell, which activates the phase of virus replication in the body. We hypothesize that measuring the quantitative indicators of Furin protein expression in patients (at the onset of the disease) who have recovered from SARS-CoV-2 and vaccinated (with all types of vaccines) against coronavirus can provide an understanding of the molecular-cellular mechanisms of the virus's cellular invasion. This means that it will be possible to find new ways to prevent the fusion of the membranes of infected cells with normal ones (this mechanism allows the virus to spread throughout the body without leaving the affected cells). Protein identification will be carried out by Enhanced Chemiluminescence (ECL) (the method of enhanced chemiluminescence differs from the method of immunochemical staining using chromogenic substrates by a much greater sensitivity)
NCT00251433
