Drug-resistant epilepsy represents roughly 40% of people with epilepsy. It is very challenging to stop seizures in this condition, and the treatment options are limited. This study aims to investigate a new treatment that involves using infra-red light. In animals, this treatment has shown promise as a possible way to reduce seizures, but it has not been tested in humans for this. The investigators are interested to know if it can reduce seizures, and how comfortable it is to be treated with this therapy.

This early phase I trial compares the safety, side effects and the biological or cellular activity of two types of universal donor (UD) natural killer (NK) cells (standard NK cells and transforming growth factor [TGF] beta imprinted [TGF-beta-i] NK cells), given directly into the tumor (intratumoral) in treating patients with skin (cutaneous) squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) or basal cell carcinoma (BCC). NK cells are a type of white blood cell that can recognize missing or incorrect proteins on tumor cells and then kill these tumor cells. It was recently discovered that infection with human cytomegalovirus (CMV), a common virus, leads to the development of a unique NK cell population. These "adaptive" NK cells have a more potent anti-tumor killing action. The TGF-beta-i NK cells used in this study are created using donors whose blood tests positive for CMV exposure. This may make them more effective at killing tumor cells. Giving UD TGF-beta-i NK cells may be safe, tolerable and/or more effective than standard UD expanded NK cells in treating patients with SCC or BCC.

The goal of this clinical study is to learn more about the study drug, GS-5319, its dosing, safety and tolerability in adults with solid tumors, where the participants show a specific gene alteration in the tumor. The gene helps produce methylthioadenosine phosphorylase (MTAP) enzyme. MTAP enzyme helps in normal growth of cells. The primary objectives of the study are to assess the safety and tolerability of GS-5319 in participants with methylthioadenosine phosphorylase (MTAP)-deleted advanced solid tumors and to identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD)/maximum administered dose (MAD) and/or the recommended dose for expansion (RDE).

The overall goal of this Phase 2 study is to determine the efficacy of a lower dose weekly schedule of doxorubicin in patients with unresectable leiomyosarcomas aged 65-100 years old. While doxorubicin is the standard of care therapy for sarcomas not removable by surgery, older or more frail patients may struggle to tolerate side effects of the treatment including immune cell suppression. Previous studies have suggested that similar anti-tumor activity can be obtained using a lower dose, weekly administration schedule of doxorubicin. In this study, the investigators will determine progression-free survival rate at 12 weeks, with secondary endpoints including quality of life and adverse events in this population. Importantly, doxorubicin can also induce immune stimulatory effects when administered at lower doses, based on animal data. Thus, correlative samples including blood and tumor biopsies will also explore the effects of immune cells and foreignness of the tumor prior to and during treatment in study patients.

This clinical trial tests how well a psychosocial oncology intervention with standard prehabilitation during neoadjuvant therapy works for patients with pancreatic cancer that has not spread to other parts of the body (localized). Chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy prior to surgery, is known as neoadjuvant therapy (NT). The advantages of therapy before surgery include: reducing the size of the cancer mass and/or reducing the spread of cancer, to improve the chance of getting all the cancer during surgery. Other research has shown that doing treatments in this order does lead to improved survival and a lower rate of the cancer returning. Even though there are positives, patients are dealing with emotional and physical symptoms of waiting until the therapies are done to get to surgery. To prepare patients for recovering after chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy to be ready for surgery, care teams have started prehabilitation programs. Prehabilitation includes exercise therapy and nutrition (healthy diet) support before going to surgery. This program has helped boost patients' strength to complete therapies, reduce the number of days in the hospital after surgery and support healing. While meeting with psychologists is available, researchers would like to see if combining it earlier during treatments may provide better support. An oncology (cancer) psychologist while undergoing cancer treatments before surgery may be feasible and helpful to patients with localized pancreatic cancer.

This study is researching an experimental drug called dupilumab (called "study drug"). The study is focused on children with active eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE; an inflammatory disease of the esophagus) which impacts feeding and nourishment. The aim of the study is to see how safe, tolerable, and effective the study drug is when given for 24 weeks to children with active EoE. The study is looking at several other research questions, including: - What side effects may happen from taking the study drug - How much study drug is in the blood at different times - Whether the body makes antibodies against the study drug (which could make the drug less effective or could lead to side effects)

This is a multi-center, randomized, open label study that will assess the efficacy and safety of ACTEMRA(R) or one of its FDA-approved biosimilars Tocilizumab (TCZ) maintenance versus withdrawal in Giant cell arteritis (GCA) patients who are in remission after at least 12 months of high dose TCZ treatment. Eligible participants will also have discontinued glucocorticoids (e.g., prednisone (or equivalent)) entirely at least three months before randomization. High dose TCZ treatment includes 6-8 mg/kg intravenously (IV) monthly or 162 mg subcutaneously (SC) weekly, which are two forms of administration that are commonly used in clinical practice and are equally efficacious in controlling GCA This research study has three parts: 1. The screening phase (up to 42 days) consists of collecting information about your health and your GCA, a physical exam, and blood tests to see If you qualify to enroll in the study 2. The study treatment phase (withdrawal/step down dosing phase study months 0 - 18) consists of you either completely stopping or decreasing your current dose of tocilizumab while collecting information about your health and your GCA as well as blood samples every two months at clinic visits 3. The safety follow-up phase (months 19-30) consists of collecting information about your health and your GCA as well as blood samples every three months The primary objective is to determine the rate of disease relapse at 18 months in participants with GCA who receive low-dose TCZ compared to those who discontinue TCZ

Vitiligo is a long-term autoimmune condition that causes the skin to lose its color. The body's germ-fighting system (immune system) mistakenly attacks the skin cells (melanocytes) which produce the pigment that gives the skin color (melanin). This leads to the formation of patches of skin with less or no pigment (depigmentation). These patches can occur anywhere on the body. In the nonsegmental form of vitiligo, similar patches occur on both sides of the body (symmetrical patches). The main aim of this study is to learn how safe zasocitinib is, how well it works and how well it is tolerated by adults with nonsegmental vitiligo. The participants will receive the study treatment (either zasocitinib or placebo) for up to 1 year (52 weeks). The placebo looks like the zasocitinib capsule but does not have any medicine in it. Participants who receive placebo at the beginning will change to zasocitinib after about 6 months. During the study, participants will visit their study clinic 11 times.

This study is open to children aged 2 to 17 with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The purpose of this study is to find out if a medicine called empagliflozin helps children and adolescents with CKD. Other goals of the study are to find out how empagliflozin is tolerated and handled by the body in children and adolescents with CKD. Participants are put into 2 groups randomly, which means by chance. One group takes empagliflozin and the other group takes placebo. Placebo looks like empagliflozin but does not contain any medicine. Participants are twice as likely to be in the empagliflozin group. Participants take empagliflozin or placebo as tablets once a day for 6 months. After 6 months, participants in both groups take empagliflozin as tablets once a day for 1 year. Participants are in the study for a little over a year and a half. During this time, they visit the study site about 15 times and get at least 5 phone or video calls from the site staff. At the visits, the doctors take blood and urine samples from the participants. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.

The purpose of this research trial is to evaluate the effect of two types of washing solutions on wound healing after total hip replacement surgery. Washing solutions are used routinely during total hip replacements to clean the wound after the components have been placed and the wound is about to be closed with sutures. It is currently not known which washing solution may be better for wound healing and whether a certain solution decreases the risk of wound healing complications after total hip replacement. Therefore, this research trial is being conducted. Study participants will be randomized into one of two groups: washing the surgical wound with povidone-iodine solution (Surgiphor, Becton Dickinson, Franklin Lakes, NJ) or chlorhexidine solution (Irrisept, Irrimax Corporation, Lawrenceville, GA). All patients will undergo standard of care total hip replacements without any other change in surgery. The best type of solution that cleans the wound and potentially leads to better wound healing is unknown. This study will evaluate whether there is difference in surgical wound healing between the two washing solutions. The study will pay for the washing solutions. Patients will follow up for standard postoperative visits. At the 2-week and 6-week visits, pictures of the surgical incision will be taken and saved in the electronic medical record and evaluated in a standardized way for healing of the incision and the appearance of the scar. Postoperative complications and returns to the hospital or additional surgeries will be collected from the electronic medical record.
