The measurement of blood pressure used to determine if a person has high blood pressure (also known as hypertension) and whether their blood pressure is controlled while taking medications that lower blood pressure. For many people, blood pressure levels are different when measured in a provider's office versus during normal daily activities outside of…
We are working with researchers at Columbia University to test whether text messaging can be used effectively to help people with hypertension to control their blood pressure. If you are between the ages of 18 and 85 years and have a cell phone, you may be eligible to participate in this study. The study would involve a telephone call that would last about…
The purpose of this study is to find out if IW-3300, an investigational new drug, helps bladder pain when given as a rectal (inserted into the anus) foam. The study will test IW-3300. IW-3300 is a new drug that has been developed for treating people like you with interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome. It is not yet approved by the United States Food…
We are conducting a research study in adults to test whether blood pressure (BP) measured in a clinic setting without a technician present is comparable to blood pressure levels while awake outside of the clinic on an Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring (ABPM) device. We will also test whether asleep blood pressure can be accurately determined using a home…
We are currently looking for men and non-pregnant women aged 40 years and above to participate in an at-home study on sleep and activity patterns in relation to blood pressure and blood glucose. Participants should not have critical/severe illness and should not be on dialysis or have a pacemaker or other implanted medical device. You must be willing to…
The purpose of this study is to test the good and bad effects of the combined treatment, using the drugs cetuximab and avelumab as well as avelumab by itself. Avelumab is a drug that works by triggering the immune system so it can try to attack the cancer again. Avelumab works in a similar way to cemiplimab, which is the usual drug for treatment of your…
RADIANCE II is a randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled, single cohort study designed todemonstrate the effectiveness (how well it works) and safety of the Paradise Renal Denervation System in hypertensive subjects (subjects with high blood pressure).
The study has been designed to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of the Paradise Renal Denervation System when treating patients with high blood pressure known as hypertension. When blood pressure is persistently elevated and pushes against the walls of the artery over a long period of time it is known to cause Hypertension. The Paradise Renal Denervation…
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness and safety of study drug MEDI4736 monotherapy, tremelimumab monotherapy, and MEDI4736 and tremelimumab combination therapy in the treatment of patients with recurrent or metastatic PD-L1-negative squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck who have progressed during or after treatment with…
The purpose of this project is to collect more data about the safety and effectiveness of renal denervation (disabling of kidney nerves) for the treatment of uncontrolled hypertension. For therenal denervation procedure, the Vessix Renal Denervation System is used. The system consists of a catheter (a thin tube) and a radio frequency (RF) generator (power…
The purpose of this study is to find out more about how physical activity monitors can help assess patients with pulmonary hypertension. We hope to find a relationship between the data on physical activity monitors and the tests that routinely done in patients with pulmonary hypertension.
The purpose of the study is to investigate if Cysview and blue light is better than white light in detecting tumors in individuals with bladder cancer prior to and during surgery that are in follow-up for tumor recurrence. Cysview is an FDA approved drug that is used in combination with a lamp from KARL STORZ to detect tumors in the bladder (KARL STORZ D-…

This study is for adult subjects with head and neck cancer (oral cavity, oropharynx middle part of the throat, hypopharynx bottom part of the throat, or larynx part of throat between the base of the tongue and the windpipe) that has either returned after treatment (recurrent) or is newly diagnosed. If newly diagnosed, the cancer must be metastatic,…
This study is for patients with melanoma, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), or squamous cell cancer of the head and neck (SCCHN) that has a protein called B7-H3 on the tumor cells or blood vessels in thetumor. The purpose of this study is to test the safety, tolerability, and most effective dose ofMGA271 in combination with ipilimumab (also called Yervoy…
You will be randomly assigned to complete questionnaires via either a paper format, web-based format, or smartphone format. About 2 weeks later but before treatment begins, you will be asked to complete a different form of the questionnaire either in the office or at home. You will be emailed and/or called by research staff to remind you to complete the…
This study is for patients with recurrent or metastatic Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Head and Neck (SCCHN). This study will test the safety of an experimental anti-cancer drug (MEDI4736). MEDI4736 is an antibody (a protein produced by the defense system of the body immune system) that has been made in the laboratory. MEDI4736 boosts the ability of your…
