This study is being done to determine if REGN2810 (anti-PD-1) in combination with ipilimumab (anti-CTLA-4) plus initial platinum-based doublet chemotherapy, or REGN2810 in combination with ipilimumab will prolong how long you live without your disease progressing compared to the standard of care pembrolizumab (anti-PD-1) monotherapy treatment. Neither…
The purpose of this study is testing two different Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors, Abrocitinib and Ritlecitinib, to see if either or both can preserve insulin production in people recently diagnosed with type 1 diabetes (T1D). Researchers believe JAK inhibitors may be able to calm the immune system's attack on insulin producing beta cells in the…
We are looking for children between the ages of 8-14 with Type 1 diabetes and without Type 1 diabetes who are interested to participate on a research study to find out how bones are affected in children and adolescents with Type 1 diabetes as compared to people without Type 1 diabetes.
The purpose of this study is to learn if the use of two drugs, Rituximab and Abatacept, one after the other, will help to extend insulin production in people newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes (T1D). These two medications may potentially help each other with altering the immune response that causes the attack on insulin-secreting cells in the pancreas.…
The purpose of this study is to Assess Treatments for Painful Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy (PDPN). To be in this study you must have type II Diabetes Mellitus, PDPN, must be 18 years of age or older, and be able to stop taking some of your current pain medications including pills, creams, patches, marijuana, cannabidiol (CBD) oil, etc. Acetaminophen (…
This is a randomized trial that will examine the effect of self-monitoring food intake via a smartphone application, and of a novel lifestyle intervention called time-restricted eating, on improvement of metabolic health in persons with overweight or obesity. The intervention lasts 12 months and will be administered via a smartphone app. Participants will…
We are conducting a survey to gather feedback about lung cancer patients experience with treatment and the challenges you faced. Your insights can help shape better care for future patients and explore how technology can be of help! The survey takes 30-40 minutes, and eligible participants who complete it will receive a gift card. Interested in…
To be in this study you must have Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathic (DPN) and be 18 years of age, inclusive, with the presence of bilateral pain in lower extremities due to DPN for at least 6 months prior to Screening and be in a stable regimen for the treatment of T1DM or T2DM for 3 months prior to Screening.
We are doing this study because we want to find out if MRI brain scans alone is better or worse than MRI brain scans plus preventative brain radiation for patients with small lung cancer. The usual approach for patients with small cell lung cancer is prophylactic cranial irradiation. If you decide to take part in this study, you will either receive PCI for…
We're conducting a research study on how much insulin is needed to control blood sugar in people who are made temporarily resistant to insulin's effects. Insulin is the main hormone (chemical signal) that the body uses to lower the levels of sugar in the blood. We are interested in looking at insulin levels because we think that lowering insulin…
We are conducting an academic study to understand how people solve problems related to health. In the study, participants will be presented with a hypothetical problem related to diabetes self-management and asked to use an online health application to explore information and propose a solution. We invite all participants between 18 and 65 years old, who…
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…
We are recruiting healthy volunteers, aged 18-65, for a research study on the buildup of excessive liver fat ("fatty liver disease") in people with or at risk for type 2 diabetes because their bodies are resistant to the actions of the blood sugar-lowering hormone, insulin. To do this, we seek to induce temporary insulin resistance in 10-12…
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and effectiveness of VX-548 in participants with pain due to Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy (DPN). To be in this study you must have DPN and be 18 through 80 years of age, inclusive, with presence of bilateral pain in lower extremities due to DPN for at least 1 year.
This purpose of this study is to determine whether the tumor cells of lung cancer patients contain changes to the DNA sequence of two proteins found on the cells surface- ALK and EGFR. If the tumor contains changes to the DNA of one of these proteins, the patient may be invited to participate on a trial that will look at drugs which may target tumors that…
The purpose of this study is to find out how Black and Latina women with type 2 diabetes prefer to learn about getting healthy before pregnancy. Participation will involve a conversation for 1-2 hours. We will ask questions and get your thoughts on your health, your diabetes, pregnancy, and birth control. We have prepared some questions, but will be…
The purpose of this study is to determine if a specific form of Vitamin B known as pyridoxamine helps improve bone strength over one year in women (65 yrs old) with Type 2 Diabetes. We know that people with type 2 diabetes have the lower bone material strength and we suspect this is due to high levels of circulating sugars that build up over time (known as…
The purpose of this research study is to learn more about bone strength in women with type 2 diabetes, and to find out whether an experimental drug called Denosumab may help preserve bone strength. Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) has become one of the most important diseases of our time. Recent research shows that diabetes has negative effects on bones and…
