Controlled Human Infection Study of Orally Administered Trichuris Trichiura Eggs in Naïve Adults

Whipworm · Trichuriasis · Controlled Human Infection

A Controlled Human Infection Model (CHIM) is being developed to provide early proof-of-concept that experimental infection with the intestinal nematode, Trichuris trichiura, is feasible and safe. The proposed model consists of enrolling consenting, healthy, trichuriasis-naïve adults and challenging them with the investigational product, Trichuris trichiura Egg Inoculum, to assess their ability to result in detectable infection. The proposed study will be a feasibility study that will consist of administering different doses of the Trichuris trichiura Egg Inoculum to healthy adult volunteers to determine the optimal dose (i.e., number of T. trichiura eggs) that is safe, well-tolerated and results in consistent infection.

Human Movement Database

Movement Disorder

This study will collect information on the different ways people control limb and body movements. This information will be used to develop a database on normal movements and adaptive movements of people who have diseases that affect the way they move. The database will serve as a tool to improve diagnosis and treatment of patients with movement-related problems. Volunteers from one month old to old age who have normal movement patterns or who have developed different ways to perform movement tasks may be eligible for this study. A physician or physical therapist will screen candidates to determine their strength, flexibility and range of motion of joints. Participants will be asked to perform movements such as walking, walking up or down stairs, standing quietly or reaching for an object or using treadmill. For the test, the arms and legs are wrapped with a soft, rubber-like material to which small plastic reflective balls are attached. A piece of firm material called a shell may be attached to the rubber sleeves or other areas of the body. Then the volunteer performs the specified task several times while special cameras record the movement. These cameras will record the positions of the reflective balls during movement and may show the person s face or body. Electrical activity in the muscles also may be measured, using small metal electrodes attached to the surface of the skin with an adhesive bandage.

Preoperative Fasting vs. Not Fasting in Critically Ill Patients

Critical Illness · Surgical Procedure, Unspecified · Pulmonary Aspiration

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if fasting or not fasting before a procedure has an effect on recovery in those who are critically ill. The main questions it aims to answer for patients on a breathing machine who are receiving tube feeding are: * Does the risk of lung complications and death differ between those who are not fasting, which may have a higher chance of allowing tube feeding to enter the lungs, and fasting, which temporarily stops nutrition before a procedure? * Is there a difference in recovery times, hospital stays, infection rates, need for organ support, safety, and nutrition for those who either fast or do not fast before a procedure? * What is the relationship between nutrition and clinical outcomes? Researchers will compare not fasting and fasting to see if it has an effect on recovery. Participants will: * Be assigned by chance (like a coin toss) to one of two groups. One group (fasting group) will have their tube feeding stopped at least 8 hours before their procedure. The other group (not fasting group) will have their tube feeding stopped right before their procedure. * Be monitored via medical record for amount of protein and calories received, and any complications related to fasting/not fasting. * Data from routine electronic medical records will be reviewed to determine how participants are doing 3 months after their procedure.

Direct Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (DSLT) for Reducing Eye Pressure in Non-Caucasian Patients With Open Angle Glaucoma

Primary Open Angle Glaucoma (POAG)

The goal of this clinical trial is to to evaluate how well Direct Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (DSLT) lowers eye pressure in eyes of adult, non-Caucasian participants with primary open angle glaucoma. The main question it aims to answer is: What is the washed out eye pressure (eye pressure when not on any glaucoma medications) of participants 6 months after the Direct Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (DSLT) procedure compared to the washed out eye pressure of participants prior to the DSLT procedure. Participants will: Undergo the DSLT procedure in one or both eyes and visit the clinic 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after the procedure to have their vision and eye pressure measured.

Oral Cannabidiol for Tobacco Cessation

Tobacco Use · Tobacco Smoking · Tobacco Dependence

Cannabidiol is a compound found in cannabis plants that is well tolerated, has low abuse liability, and might be an effective medication to promote tobacco cessation. This clinical study will use a validated approach for screening tobacco cessation medications to determine if oral cannabidiol increases short-term tobacco abstinence, and evaluate mechanisms that might explain how cannabidiol alters smoking behavior. Results from this study will provide data on the therapeutic potential of cannabidiol for tobacco cessation.

Study of Navtemadlin add-on to Ruxolitinib in JAK Inhibitor-Naïve Patients With Myelofibrosis Who Have a Suboptimal Response to Ruxolitinib

Myelofibrosis · Post-PV MF · Post-ET Myelofibrosis

This clinical trial is evaluating whether addition of navtemadlin to ruxolitinib treatment will provide more clinical benefit than ruxolitinib alone for patients with Myelofibrosis who have a suboptimal response to ruxolitinib treatment alone. Subjects will start by receiving ruxolitinib alone in the run-in period. Those who demostrate a suboptimal response from ruxolitinib alone will then be randomized 2:1 to receive navtemadlin or navtemadlin placebo as add-on treatment to their ongoing ruxolitinib. Randomized means that subjects will be assigned to a group by chance, like a flip of a coin. The study is blinded, meaning the subjects, doctors, central endpoint assessors and sponsor will not know which add on treatment (navtemadlin or navtemadlin placebo) the subject is receiving.
