Early Age-Related Hearing Loss Investigation (EARHLI) is a study to obtain information on how a hearing aid-based intervention can prevent cognitive decline in those at risk for Alzheimer's Disease and Alzheimer's Disease Related Dementias (AD/ADRD). Age-related hearing loss (ARHL) is the third most common chronic condition in older adults. The…
TReatment for ImmUne Mediated PathopHysiology (TRIUMPH) is a multi-center, three-arm clinical trial of immunosuppressive therapy for children with acute liver failure. This is a double-blind study, so the study doctors and participants will not know to which arm the participants are assigned. The study will determine if corticosteroids or equine anti-…
The purpose of this study is to learn more about the mechanisms of hearing loss, specifically to learn how abnormalities in the brain may produce certain experiences that are common in patients with hearing loss. Individuals with hearing loss will be compared to individuals with normal hearing.
The purpose of this research study is to determine if an investigational drug, VS-01, will help in the treatment of acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) compared to supportive care (standard of therapy). ACLF is a potentially life-threatening condition characterized by a group of signs that occur together (syndrome) in patients with a late stage of…
The purpose of this study is to test an investigational device called the Echopulse for treatment of breast fibroadenomas in women. Fibroadenomas are benign (noncancerous) breast tumors. These lumps can occur alone, in groups, or as a complex of lumps together. Sometimes women feel these in the breast when doing regular self-breast exams, or they may be…
We are asking you to participate in a research study to learn if different ways of doing routine anesthesia and patient care before, during and after abdominal surgery can reduce breathing problems. The total time of the study is 3 months with daily visits by a member of our study team while you are in the hospital and 3 short follow-up calls after you…
Cisplatin is a chemotherapy medicine that is used to treat a variety of cancers. At high total (cumulative) doses it can be associated with progressive and irreversible hearing loss. The purpose of this study is see if injections of OTO-104 can protect against hearing loss associated with cisplatin therapy in the treatment of cancer. OTO-104 contains an…
The study is designed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the InSpace device as a primary surgical treatment for a full thickness Massive Rotator Cuff Tears (MRCT) in comparison to Partial Repair of a full thickness MRCT performed during an arthroscopic procedure.
The purpose of this research study is to compare the safety and effectiveness of two drug-eluting stents that are used to open the blocked or narrowed blood vessel of the leg in patients with Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD): the ELUVIA Stent and the Zilver PTX Stent.
Thepurposeof the study is to test whether or not QPI-1002 could be used to lessen or prevent acute kidney injury after heart surgery. Another purpose is to better understand the safety of QPI-1002.
Acute inner ear hearing loss is the sudden onset of hearing loss, usually in one ear, without any known cause. Acute hearing loss can permanently destroy some of the hair cells (that govern the sense of hearing) and / or hearing nerve in the inner ear.The drug AM-111 has been developed to protect the hearing cells and nerve following sudden inner ear…
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the short-term (1 year) and long-term (5 and 10 year) safetyand effectiveness of the JOURNEY II CR Total Knee System in patients with degenerative joint disease of the knee requiring primary total knee replacement. Clinical, radiographic, and health economic outcomes will be evaluated.
The purpose of this research is to find out whether it is safe to use a virus to deliver a new gene to the inner ear of people with hearing loss. This is a kind of gene therapy which involves gene transfer. Once the genetic material and vector are surgically administered to you, it is not possible to remove these agents. The study is designed to evaluate…
You are being asked to be part of this study because you have been diagnosed with a bulge or aneurysm in your iliac arteries, the vessels that supply blood to the lower half of your body. As an aneurysm expands, the walls become weak and may rupture, causing a major loss of blood with a high risk of death and other serious complications. To avoid this risk…
