Huntington's disease (HD) is a genetic, progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by early and widespread brain changes that can begin more than a decade before the onset of unequivocal motor signs. Although biological indicators of neurodegeneration-including striatal…

This study aims to evaluate and compare the treatment outcomes of total laparoscopic subcutaneous gland resection combined with nipple-areola complex (NAC) lift surgery against those of isolated laparoscopic surgery in the management of moderate to severe gynecomastia (GYN) in ma…

Our successful R01 discovered 1) the neural mechanistic difference between typically occurring convergence insufficiency (TYP-CI) and binocularly normal controls and 2) the underlying mechanism of office-based vergence and accommodative therapy (OBVAT) that is effective in remedi…

More than 30,000 Veterans are hospitalized for stroke each year, and in the critical first months of recovery, at least half are disabled by abnormal 3-D spatial function (spatial neglect). Their self-care, mobility, and ability to return home are severely limited.

Our primary objective is to determine if the use of tumescence has a meaningful effect on STSG uptake at the recipient site. This is an important outcome because poor graft uptake results in the need for prolonged local wound care, additional clinic visits for patients and increa…

This study is a pilot, phase II, open-label study of the angiotensin II receptor blocker, losartan, in patients with Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) 6 years or older for 12 months. The investigators will enroll 24 patients with SCD over the course of 1 year with a goal to complete all …

Project RISE is a randomized control trial. The intervention consists of four modules that focus on multiple aspects of interoception including: body awareness, body sensations/movement, eating, health and self-care, emotional awareness, and understanding the self in relation to …

The primary objective of the study is to determine the efficacy of blood flow restriction therapy on patients with lower limb extensor injuries by measuring pre and post blood flow restriction therapy strength and muscle mass.

The overall goal of this study is to evaluate telehealth and internet-based approaches to meet accessibility challenges for families with concerns about ASD in their infants. In this study, we will gather exploratory data related to the potential of two telehealth tools: 1) The T…

This study looked at university students who had trouble sleeping and compared two different programs designed to help with insomnia. One program was mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR), which focuses on meditation and awareness techniques, and the other was cognitive-behav…

This clinical research study will investigate the effects of respiratory strength training on blood pressure and cardiovascular health in adults who are 50 years of age and older and have been diagnosed with moderate or severe obstructive sleep apnea.

This clinical trial constructs and tests a novel multinuclear metabolic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequence in patients with glioma (brain tumor) that is newly diagnosed or has come back (recurrent). This trial aims to develop new diagnostic imaging technology that may brid…

This study will implement a pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT, N=50) to refine and assess the feasibility and acceptability of an emotion regulation and communication skills intervention designed to improve engagement in HIV-care among HIV+ people who report opioid and/or st…

The objective of this project is to assess the effects of combined physical exercise and cognitive training interventions on cognitive and brain health in patients with heart failure (HF). Also, the role of sex on the effects of the interventions will be assessed.

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of lenalidomide when given together with usual combination chemotherapy (etoposide, prednisone, vincristine sulfate \[Oncovin\], cyclophosphamide, and doxorubicin hydrochloride \[hydroxydaunorubicin hydrochloride\], or "EP…

This phase I trial is to find out the best dose, possible benefits and/or side effects of magrolimab in combination with dinutuximab in treating patients with neuroblastoma that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory) or relapsed osteosarcoma. Magro…

The objective of this study will be to verify the additional effect of Pain Neuroscience Education, Motor Imagery and Action Observation on primary outcomes pain intensity and craniofacial pain and disability in patients with chronic temporomandibular disorders (TMD). The seconda…

The goal of this observational study is to validate and evaluate the clinical feasibility of using a 3-D cell culture model for CTCs isolation/purification and their cell number expansion in cancer patient with transitional cell carcinoma and patient without cancer. This project…

BDB001-201 is a multi-center, open-label, Phase II clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of BDB001 in the treatment of subjects with advanced solid tumors that have progressed on anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 mAb treatment.

This study aims to assess \[11C\]acetate positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) as a biomarker for renal angiomyolipomas and pulmonary lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) and an early biomarker of response to rapamycin in LAM patients. \[11C\]Acetate is a radioac…
