MethaLoad Dose-Finding Study
You may qualify for a paid research study that tests a new way of starting methadone for people using fentanyl. The standard approach to starting methadone uses low doses that increase slowly over time. This study tests whether a higher starting dose, called a loading dose, works better by reducing …
Recently Added/Updated trials
UPCC 22219 Dynamic Nuclear Polarization-MR Spectroscopic Imaging of Hepatocellular Carcinoma Metabolism to Predict Response Following Locoregional or Systemic Therapy
The research study is being conducted to evaluate a new imaging technique for detecting the response of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) to locoregional or systemic therapy. Locoregional therapies or LRT are called Transarterial Chemoembolization or TACE, Transarterial Radioembolization or TARE and Microwave Ablation or MWA. Systemic therapies or ST are therapy drugs that spread throughout the body to treat cancer cells. They include chemotherapy, hormonal therapy, targeted drugs, and immunotherapy.
Precision Depression Adalimumab Trial
The Precision Psychopathology +Dynamic Immunopsychiatry (PPDI) Lab is looking for people who are currently experiencing depression to participate in a clinical trial designed to measure the effect of an anti-inflammatory medication (adalimumab) on persisting depression symptoms in people already taking an anti-depressant.
UPCC 07623 Effect of Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors on Coronary Microvasculature
This is an observational study that includes patients with breast cancer or non-small
cell lung cancer who will be treated with immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy. The
investigators will use echocardiograms, blood draws, and PET stress tests to understand
how ICI therapy affects the heart and circulatory system.
UPCC 03922 A Phase 1/1b/2 Study Evaluating the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, and Efficacy of AMG 193 Alone and in Combination With Docetaxel in Subjects With Advanced MTAP-null Solid Tumors
The primary objective of Parts 1 and 2 of this study is to evaluate the safety,
tolerability, and to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or recommended phase 2
dose (RP2D) of Anvumetostat alone and in combination with docetaxel in adult participants
with metastatic or locally advanced methylthioadenosine phosphorylase (MTAP)-null solid
tumors.
The primary objective of Part 3 of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of Anvumetostat
in adult participants with metastatic or locally advanced MTAP-null solid tumors.
UPCC 51423 A First-in-Human Study of the Safety, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of JNJ-88549968, a T-cell Redirecting Bispecific Antibody for CALR-mutated Myeloproliferative Neoplasms
The purpose of this study is to characterize safety and to determine the Recommended
Phase 2 Dose (RP2D[s]) and optimal dosing schedule(s) of JNJ-88549968 in part 1 (Dose
Escalation); to characterize the safety of JNJ- 88549968 at RP2D(s) in part 2 (Cohort
Expansion). For U.S. sites: the purpose of this study is to characterize the safety and
to determine the RP2D(s) and optimal dosing schedule(s) of JNJ-88549968 in Part 1 and
part 1b (Dose Escalation), and to characterize the safety of JNJ-88549968 at the RP2D(s)
in Part 2 and part 2b (Cohort Expansion), when given as monotherapy in essential
thrombocythemia (ET) or myelofibrosis (MF), and with ruxolitinib or momelotinib in MF
only.
