NCT06118411
Vitiligo is a common chronic autoimmune disease that causes the body's immune system to attack its own pigment producing skin cells. This study is to evaluate how safe and effective upadacitinib is in participants with non-segmental vitiligo (NSV). Adverse effects and change in disease activity will be assessed. Upadacitinib is an approved drug for various immune-mediated inflammatory diseases and is currently being investigated for the treatment of NSV. There will be 2 replicate studies running at the same time (Study 1 and Study 2 with periods A and B) and an optional exploratory Narrow-Band Ultraviolet B (NB-UVB) phototherapy study (Study 3). In Period A, participants are placed in 1 of 2 groups called treatment arms. Each group receives a different treatment. There is a 1 in 3 chance that participants will receive placebo and 2 in 3 chance participants will receive upadacitinib. In Period B, all participants will receive upadacitinib. Approximately 270 adult and adolescent participants with NSV will be enrolled in each main study ((Study 1 and Study 2, 540 subjects total) at approximately 90 sites worldwide with an option for adult participants who completed Period A of either study and did not achieve T-VASI 90 at week 48 while on study drug, to enter Study 3. In Studies 1 and 2: Period A, participants will receive oral tablets of upadacitinib or placebo once a day for 48 weeks. In Period B, participants will receive oral tablets of upadacitinib 15 mg once a day for 112 weeks. Participants will be followed up for 30 days. Study 3 participants will receive upadacitinib monotherapy or upadacitinib with NB-UBV phototherapy for at least 24 weeks followed by upadacitinib alone. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.
NCT05776966
The goal of this study is to examine the feasibility of a gender-specific digital intervention for women with opioid use disorder. In this study, women with opioid use disorder will be randomized to receive treatment-as-usual plus a gender-specific digital intervention or treatment-as-usual only. Feasibility, satisfaction, and engagement with the intervention are the primary outcomes and will be measured post-intervention and at two-week, 6-week, and 12-week follow-up visits.
NCT06453694
The goal of this pilot clinical trial is to test efgartigimod alfa against placebo in adults with first-time optic neuritis (optic nerve inflammation). The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is it feasible to use efgartigimod alfa for optic neuritis? * Is it feasible to run a larger trial testing efgartigimod alfa in optic neuritis? * Does efgartigimod alfa work better than placebo in improving how quickly and how much vision returns? Participants will: * have their vision and blood tested * be asked questions about their vision * will receive standard of care treatment with steroids regardless of whether they are receiving efgartigimod alfa or not * will have periodic visits over 6 months
NCT03909178
Tears of the acetabular labrum appear to be common with the prevalence of asymptomatic tears in the general population approaching 66% and 70% based on cadaveric dissection and magnetic resonance imaging, respectively. Despite this prevalence, there is no currently accepted justification for performing labral repair in an asymptomatic patient despite the many postulated biomechanical benefits that an intact labrum imparts to the hip joint. Representing a smaller proportion of all tears, symptomatic tears of the acetabular labrum present a therapeutic challenge. Current treatment modalities range from conservative measures to open surgical intervention. Conservative measures have typically included: activity modification, the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), physical therapy (PT), core strengthening and improvement of sensory motor control. In the past two decades, technological advances in the form of surgical instrumentation and traction devices have facilitated less invasive arthroscopic techniques to diagnose and treat hip problems and as such is now the preferred treatment modality for many orthopedic surgeons treating patients with hip pathology. Determining which patients, using age and arthritic burden as predictors, can benefit from labral repair is paramount for several reasons. Showing arthroscopic repair is of little or no benefit to a specific cohort can reduce the number of unnecessary surgeries performed, increase the use of conservative therapy (if validated) and reduce the interval between diagnosis and total hip replacement.
NCT03674047
This research study is studying a drug as a possible treatment for Bronchiolitis Obliterans Syndrome (BOS) after having an Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation (HCT).
NCT00264602
The primary purpose of this study is to determine if we can identify the first lymph node that drains from the tumor, and thus would be the most likely site for metastatic disease, and remove it for analysis to improve the ability to detect tumor in this node and to remove this additional site that potentially contains tumor cells.
NCT06854952
This is a Phase 2a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial studying the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of orally administered TERN-601 in adults with overweight or obesity.
NCT01169259
The VITamin D and OmegA-3 TriaL (VITAL) is a randomized clinical trial in 25,871 U.S. men and women investigating whether taking daily dietary supplements of vitamin D3 (2000 IU) or omega-3 fatty acids (Omacor® fish oil, 1 gram) reduces the risk of developing cancer, heart disease, and stroke in people who do not have a prior history of these illnesses. The 5-year intervention phase (study pill-taking, median 5.3 years) has ended; post-intervention observational follow-up of study participants is ongoing.
NCT04840342
Lysine specific demethylase-1 (LSD1) is an epigenetic regulator of gene transcription involved in the pathophysiology of elevated blood pressure and likely renal damage in Blacks. This project investigates whether a genetically driven anti-hypertensive approach proves superior in controlling blood pressure and mitigating renal injury in Blacks who carry the risk allele for LSD1 (rs587168). The findings of these investigations may lead to a new approach in treating a subset (\~30%) of the essential hypertension population (Black LSD1 risk allele hypertensives).
NCT03972657
The main purpose of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability (how the body reacts to the drug\[s\]) and effectiveness (ability to treat the cancer) of REGN5678 (Nezastomig) alone, or in combination with cemiplimab. The study has 2 parts. The goal of Part 1 (dose escalation) is to determine a safe dose(s) of REGN5678 when it is given alone or in combination with cemiplimab. The goal of Part 2 (dose expansion) is to use the REGN5678 drug dose(s) found in Part 1 to see how well REGN5678 alone or in combination with cemiplimab works to shrink tumors. This study is looking at several other research questions, including: 1. Side effects that may be experienced by taking REGN5678 alone or in combination with cemiplimab 2. How REGN5678 alone or in combination with cemiplimab works in the body 3. How much REGN5678 and/or cemiplimab are present in the blood 4. To see if REGN5678 alone or in combination with cemiplimab works to reduce the size of the tumor by helping the immune system destroy the tumor

NCT05585775
The primary objective for this project is to test whether affective executive functioning is a mechanism of action of mindfulness-based cognitive therapy and Wellness for Wellbeing. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Test the effect of MBCT vs. Wellness for Wellbeing on affective inhibition (i.e., emotionally valenced inhibition as measured via the affective Go/No Go task) using an RCT. 2. Test the effect of MBCT vs. Wellness for Wellbeing on (a) affective updating and (b) affective shifting. Outcomes will be measured with the affective n-Back and the affective Internal Switching Task, respectively. 3a) The investigators will examine whether depression symptom severity co-varies with change in affective executive functioning (i.e., affecting inhibition, shifting, and updating) over time. 3b) The investigators will examine whether compliance with treatment protocol (e.g., number of classes attended, amount of home practice) predicts endpoint executive functioning. Participants will complete surveys, interviews, and computer tasks, and will be randomized to either Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy or Wellness for Wellbeing.

NCT05117242
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the safety and efficacy (how well the drug works) of acasunlimab (also known as GEN1046) when it is used alone (monotherapy) versus when it is combined with a cancer drug (pembrolizumab) for participants with relapsed/refractory (disease has returned after treatment or did not respond to treatment) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC; the most common type of lung cancer). This trial has 2 parts. The purpose of the first part is to find out if the combination of acasunlimab and pembrolizumab is safe and to find out the best doses to use. The purpose of the second part is to give acasunlimab and pembrolizumab to more participants to evaluate efficacy. In the second part of the trial, participants will be randomized to participate in 1 of the 3 arms of the trial. Randomized means that the participant will be randomly assigned to a treatment arm based on chance; no one chooses their treatment arm. Participants will receive either acasunlimab alone (100 followed by 500 mg into the vein) or acasunlimab with pembrolizumab (200 or 400 mg into the vein) once every 3 or 6 weeks, depending on which arm the participant is randomized into. All participants will receive active drug; no one will receive placebo. Trial details include: * The average trial duration for an individual participant will be about 10 months. * The average treatment duration for an individual participant will be about 6 months. * The visit frequency will be weekly at first and lessening over time until visits are only once every 3 weeks.
