The device is designed to improve fistula outcomes by optimizing the geometrical configuration of the fistula, influencing hemodynamics, minimizing turbulence and promote laminar flow. All patients will be implanted with the VasQ device and will be followed up for a duration of 24 months.
NCT02866669
The central objective of this proposal is to rigorously compare two strategies designed to improve BP control in primary care practices serving rural Southeastern African Americans with low socioeconomic status (SES) living in the "Black Belt". In year 1, we're engaging community members (community members who have experience being community peer advisors or have high blood pressure) to develop the study interventions and protocols. In years 2-5, the investigators will test the interventions. Year 2-5, Aim 3: Enroll 80 practices and 25 African American patients with uncontrolled HTN at each practice (total n=2000) in a cluster-randomized, controlled, 4-arm pragmatic implementation trial to evaluate the three multi- component, multi-level functional interventions finalized in the UH2 phase compared with enhanced usual care. The study's 4 arms are: 1. Enhanced Usual Care: Practices are provided with educational materials and tools to enhance patient care 2. Peer Coaching: Patients enrolled in these practices will be matched with a peer coach. The peer coach helps the patient to set goals around self-management, including medications, home monitoring, and diet and exercise, and she helps the patient to strategize how to accomplish the goals, using motivational interviewing techniques 3. Practice Facilitation: Practices randomized to this arm will work with a practice facilitator. Practice facilitation is a highly customized, staged approach to helping a practice to implement process and structural changes to enhance the quality of care and improve patient and staff satisfaction 4. Peer coaching and practice facilitation: Practices randomized to this arm will receive both the peer coach intervention and the practice facilitation intervention. Practice facilitators and peer coaches will receive the same training for this hybrid intervention, but the practice facilitator change packet will add examples of activities that integrate peer coaches.
NCT03935217

NCT03605719
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of wild-type reovirus (pelareorep) when given together with dexamethasone, carfilzomib, and nivolumab in treating patients with multiple myeloma that has come back (relapsed). Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as dexamethasone, 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. Carfilzomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. A virus, called pelareorep, which has been changed in a certain way, may be able to kill tumor cells without damaging normal cells. Giving dexamethasone, carfilzomib, and nivolumab with pelareorep may work better in treating patients with multiple myeloma.
NCT03634072
Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is the most common cyanotic congenital heart defect with the vast majority of survivors of corrective surgery left with some degree of right ventricular (RV) volume overload due to pulmonary regurgitation (PR) which cause RV enlargement with right heart failure, diminished biventricular function, ventricular arrhythmia, sudden death and decreased exercise performance over time. Pulmonary valve replacement (PVR) has been thought to ameliorate these complications but the timing of replacement has yet to be determined with equipoise at the moment in this decision making process. As nearly all studies in this regard are retrospective with much less data in pediatric TOF than adults, this pilot trial sets the stage to create a prospective randomized trial in the teenage years.

NCT06058338
Fruit and vegetable (FV) intake decrease the risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and is important for T2D management but is difficult to achieve in adequate amounts for those with a low- income. Produce Prescription (PPR) projects are an intervention aligned with the social determinants of health that help individuals with a low-income purchase FV by providing an incentive. The impacts of PPR projects on populations with T2D and a low-income is less understood. The Multi-level evaluation of Produce Prescription Projects on type 2 diabetes- related outcomes: A pathway to policy change by addressing social determinants of health study will determine the impact of PPR projects on hemo-globin A1c (HbA1c; primary outcome), fruit and vegetable intake (FVI), food security, and related behaviors among a diverse sample of PPR participants diagnosed with T2D and low-income (Aim 1), and will conduct a cost and cost-effective analysis of PPR projects (Aim 2), and a mixed methods process evaluation to understand feasibility and best practices for PPR projects for people with/at risk for T2D (Aim 3). We hypothesize that PPR participants will see greater declines in HbA1c and improvements in other health and food-related behaviors, compared to the Standard of Care. We will recruit five GusNIP PPR projects, whose healthcare partners serve patients with T2D, and who have participating and matched non-participating control populations. We will collect data at baseline and post-intervention using validated, survey modules, clinical measures, and cost data. Five types of data will be used for this project: 1.Health and healthcare utilization data from the EHR or point-of-care, 2.Participant survey data, 3.Qualitative data, 4.Program cost data (NOT human subjects), and 5.Process data (NOT human subjects). Information extracted from medical records includes HbA1c, weight, and blood pressure and will be collected at 2 time points (months 0,6), following their standard of care protocols. Staff will also extract healthcare utilization data (e.g., #primary care and #ER visits) from the EHR at each of site. Primary analyses will use an intention to treat strategy. Analysis will include a linear mixed-effect model to the HbA1c with an interaction between group and time to examine whether there is a difference in HbA1c trajectories between intervention and control groups. Similar models will be used to determine impact on each of the secondary outcomes (e.g., healthcare utilization, BMI).
NCT04106193
Up to 20% of women Veterans (WV) using VHA primary care experience past-year intimate partner violence (IPV), which contributes to numerous physical and mental health conditions, including suicidality. Despite national recommendations to screen WVs for IPV, there is low adoption of IPV screening programs in primary care. In response, VHA is spreading IPV screening programs in Women's Health Model 1 and Model 2 primary care clinics, where the majority of WV VHA primary care patients receive care. The systematic and effective implementation of IPV screening programs within primary care clinics is expected to enhance care for WVs as well as improve access to, and timeliness of, IPV-related care. Given the high prevalence of IPV among WVs and its significant negative health effects, successful implementation of IPV screening programs is expected to reduce morbidity among WV VHA patients. This stepped wedge hybrid II implementation/effectiveness study will assess efforts to implement routine IPV screening for WV VHA patients.
NCT03735628
The purpose of the dose escalation part of this study is to determine the feasibility of using the combination of copanlisib and nivolumab in subjects with advanced solid tumors, and to determine the maximum tolerated dose of copanlisib in combination with nivolumab. The maximum tolerated dose will then be used in Phase 2 (dose expansion) of the study.
NCT04643795
The purpose of this study is to directly characterize the pharmacokinetic (PK) profiles of MGL-3196 and its major metabolite (MGL-3623) following administration of multiple oral doses (QD x 6 days) in subjects with varying degrees of hepatic impairment (HI) compared to healthy matched control subjects with normal hepatic function, including a subset of NASH subjects.

NCT04124900
This research project results from the interest in continuing the collaboration with the previous LL-HURS-ONC001 clinical validation study, which gives cause to the present study. LL-HURS-ONC001 was carried out with the participation of HURS' Principal Investigator and the team of experts in prostate cancer, as well as with the participation of the Sponsor's scientific and development team, Life Length SL, led by Dr. Najarro. The main objective of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy of the PROSTAV test in cutting down on unnecessary biopsies in prostate cancer screening/early diagnosis. PROSTAV is a minimally invasive test, easy to implement as biomarker for prostate cancer diagnosis. The efficacy of the PROSTAV test is clinically validated by the results obtained in a previous study, LL-HURS-ONC001. The purpose of this study is to advance in the development of new biomarkers in areas where there is a clinical need and where the telomeric profile influences medical decisions within the patient's clinical context. The association level between each individual's telomere biology and the results of the prostate biopsy will be confirmed. Data will be collected to subsequently delve deeper into and accurately establish the effect of this measure in prostate cancer patient management to substantiate its implementation in standard care.
NCT03547050
We have discovered a small change in the genetic code which increases the risk of the brainwave abnormality that is found in rolandic epilepsy. We now wish to confirm this using a second much larger sample of patients. We will investigate the other genetic changes that cause people with the brainwave abnormality to develop seizures, as well as problems with speech, coordination, attention and learning.
NCT04222712

NCT04926974
Study is a randomized clinical trial evaluating the efficacy of novel mobile application technologies (including Seeing AI, Aira, and Supervision+) to improve quality of life in older adults with low vision by expanding community access and providing assistance with activities of daily living. Aira provides real-time remote personal assistance through a sighted Aira agent supplying direct feedback to assist with visual tasks. Seeing AI provides optical character recognition allowing any text to be read aloud, color identification, bar code reading, scene description, and facial recognition based on stored photos. Supervision + allows one to use the phone as a magnifier, providing magnification and contrast enhancement using the camera of the mobile phone. This study seeks to understand the potential of these technologies to improve daily activities, community participation, independence, and self-sufficiency in this group by examining a technological approach, which has not yet undergone rigorous investigation in a diverse population of older adults with visual impairment. Project objectives are to evaluate mobile applications in a wide range of visual disability, categorized into three groups: (1) mild to moderate visual acuity loss, (2) severe to profound visual acuity loss, and (3) legal blindness secondary to visual field loss. Participants are randomized to one of three intervention groups: (1) Supervision+ application, (2) Aira application, or (3) Seeing AI application for a period of 6 months. For the Aira intervention group, participants will be assigned either with 'restricted' access (current open access areas plus 30 minutes/month anywhere), or 'unrestricted' access (700 minutes), for a period of 3 months with a 3 month cross-over period. Participants may elect to continue the study for an additional 3 months during which time they have access to all 3 study mobile applications. Outcome measures include assessment of changes at three, six and nine months post-intervention for: visual ability, health state (including depression), self-efficacy, loneliness, life space, distances travelled from the home, and types of services obtained.
