Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a difficult to treat molecular subtype with a poor survival. TNBC can be divided into at least two molecular entities; BRCA-like and non-BRCA-like. In this trial we would like to investigate whether a molecular subgroup exists within TNBCs …

This study is designed to assess the strategy of using spinal cord stimulation to improve the ability to move in spinal cord injured humans.

This trial is designed to be the initial prospective pilot investigation of the effectiveness of combined SBRT and TACE as bridging therapy for HCC patients awaiting liver transplanation. No prospective clinical trials regarding the combination of TACE and SBRT in pre-transplant …

This research study is a Three arm Phase I clinical trial, which tests the safety of an investigational drug or combination of drugs and also tries to define the appropriate dose of the combination of investigational drugs to use for further studies. "Investigational" means that …

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of lenalidomide and ibrutinib when given together with rituximab in treating patients with previously untreated stage II-IV follicular lymphoma. Lenalidomide may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop cance…

E1Z11 is a study to determine whether certain genetic information can predict which breast cancer patients will discontinue treatment with aromatase inhibitors (AIs) due to the development of musculoskeletal symptoms (MSS). Women with stage I-III breast cancer who are prescribed …

BACKGROUND: * Despite progress, some children and young adults with solid tumors still experience poor survival. * Activated NK cells potently kill autologous pediatric solid tumors, and clinical grade procedures are available to generate large numbers of activated NK cells for …

The goal of this phase II clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy of the completely non-invasive treatment option of stereotactic radiation therapy for the treatment of biopsy proven and growing small renal tumors.

The aim of the present study was to assess whether it was necessary to conduct magnifying endoscopy with narrow band imaging (ME-NBI) targeted biopsy compared with endoscopic forceps biopsy (EFB) from white light endoscopy in diagnosing early gastric cancer (EGC). Meanwhile, the …

This research study is a Phase I clinical trial. Phase I clinical trials test the safety of investigational melanoma vaccines. Phase I studies also try to define the appropriate dose of the investigational vaccine, in this case WDVAX, to use for further studies. "Investigational"…

Human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a common cause of respiratory illness in infants and children around the world. This study will evaluate the safety and immune response to a RSV vaccine in three groups of participants: healthy children who have already had an RSV infect…

Cardiomyopathy is a disease of the heart muscle. It is rare, but it can be serious. Cardiomyopathy in children can result in death, disability, heart transplantation or serious heart rhythm disorders. Natural substances in the blood called cardiac biomarkers can be measured in th…

Levetiracetam (LEV: (S)-α-ethyl-2-oxo-pyrrolidine acetamide) is an anticonvulsant/antiepileptic drug. The specific aim of this study is to assess the efficacy of low-dose LEV in reducing hippocampal activity in schizophrenia. The investigators also hypothesize that LEV will impro…

Chemotherapy and radiation therapy for the treatment of cancer can compromise fertility. Ovarian tissue cryopreservation is an experimental strategy offered at The University of Pennsylvania to preserve future fertility (protocol 806062). The primary objective of this study is to…

A study to see how effective and tolerable radiation therapy along with androgen deprivation therapy is in treating prostate cancer.

This randomized phase I/II trial studies radiation therapy and rituximab in treating patients with stage I-II grade 1 or grade 2 follicular lymphoma. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill cancer cells. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, may h…

This interventional study evaluated the efficacy of Naderin (sodium nucleinate) for the prophylaxis of complications during basic therapy and medical rehabilitation in patients with socially significant diseases, including malignant neoplasms, tuberculosis, and hepatitis C. The s…

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether the bacterial vaccine MV130 helps reduce the number of exacerbations in adults with moderate to severe COPD. It will also assess the safety and immune effects of MV130. The main questions it aims to answer is: Does MV130 lower t…

Parental decision-making for children with advanced cancer is complex. Many parents have overly optimistic beliefs about prognosis and as a result choose aggressive measures even at the end of life, which are associated with greater suffering. Yet most parents wish to limit suffe…

This study is designed for patients who had malignant melanoma and, following tumor removal, are now free of disease, or have only very minor residual disease, and are at a very high risk of disease recurrence. These patients will be treated with the A2/4-1BBL melanoma vaccine, a…
