This research study is designed to look at the involvement of the glutamate system and synaptic density in depression and bipolar disorder. Each participant will undergo a screening appointment to determine study eligibility. Thereafter, the study will take 2 or 3 visits dependin…

This trial studies how well serial magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and MR spectroscopic imaging work in characterizing lower grade glioma. Diagnostic procedures, such as MR imaging and MR spectroscopic imaging, may detect serial changes in lower grade glioma. This study may help …

This feasibility study investigates the impact of reminder-focused-positive-psychiatry (RFPP) on attention-deficit-hyperactive-disorder (ADHD) and posttraumatic-stress-disorder (PTSD) symptoms, vascular-function, inflammation and well-being of adolescents with comorbid ADHD \& PT…

With a prevalence of more than 15% in ICU, septic shock today represents a real public health problem and remains the leading cause of mortality in ICU. Undernutrition is characterized by an alteration of the body composition and in particular by a loss of muscle mass. In intensi…

This clinical trial studies the side effects and best way to perform yttrium Y-90 radioembolization in treating patients with liver cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Yttrium Y-90 radioembolization is a therapy that injects radioactive microspheres d…

This phase I trial studies the best dose and side effects of niclosamide when given together with enzalutamide in treating patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer that has come back or has spread to other places in the body. Androgens can cause the growth of prostate c…

SCANDARE is a prospective biobanking study on tumor (+/- nodes), plasma and blood samples at different time points in ovarian, triple negative breast, Head and Neck Cancer, advanced stage treatment-naïve cervical or vulva cancer and sarcoma (breast angiosarcoma and uterine sarcom…

Breast cancer (BC) is the most frequent cause of leptomeningeal metastases (LM) .As for brain parenchymal metastases, the incidence of LM seems to be increasing, due to the growing incidence of metastatic BC, the improvement of survival and the poor diffusion of therapeutic agent…

Chronic low back pain (CLBP) afflicts up to 50 million U.S. adults and is a primary cause of disability and reduced quality of life. The prescription of opioids for chronic low back pain (CLBP) has increased substantially within the past decade in the U.S. As noted by the CDC in …
