The goal of this early feasibility study is to gain initial insight into the basic safety and performance of transluminal (through the blood vessels) implantation of the PASCAL System's implant (composed of man-made materials). We are trying to evaluate the safety and performance of the PASCAL System with Optimal Medical Therapy (OMT) (also known as…
This is a research study for patients who have Tricuspid Regurgitation (TR), a condition that occurs when the three leaflets of the heart's tricuspid valve do not close properly causing blood to leak backward with each heartbeat. Since some of the blood leaks backward, the heart has to pump more blood with each beat to push the same amount of blood…
My Hand Project for Stroke Patients: We are testing a robotic device to help people who had a stroke use their weak hand more easily. This research study would involve you wearing a hand robot that helps open and close your fingers in order to use your hand to pick up common everyday objects. During the study, you may be asked to try out different…
The Edwards Cardioband Tricuspid Valve Reconstruction FIT valve repair system is a prospective, single arm, multi-center study to evaluate the safety and performance of the Cardioband Tricuspid System. The Edwards Cardioband Tricuspid Valve Reconstruction System is intended for patients with tricuspid regurgitation deemed to be potential candidates for…
This is a prospective, single-arm, multi-center, early feasibility study. This research study is for patients who have Tricuspid Regurgitation (TR), a condition that occurs when the three leaflets of the heart's tricuspid valve do not close properly causing blood to leak backward with each heartbeat. Since some of the blood leaks backward, the heart…
This program aims to help improve adult caregivers of stroke survivors ability to care for their stroke survivors with their daily needs. Each session will cover different topics which are important for caregivers to understand in order to best engage in their new role. Topics will include, but are not limited to: bathing, toileting, dressing, transfers,…
The purpose of this research is to learn about types of practice that may benefit stroke survivors when learning to use their weaker arm to perform a task. Potential participants will be asked to come to Columbia University Irving Medical Center (CUIMC) for a screening session. Eligible participants will be randomized into two groups with different practice…
This is a research study for patients who have Tricuspid Regurgitation (TR), a condition that occurs when the three leaflets of the hearts tricuspid valve do not close properly causing blood to leak backward with each heartbeat. Since some of the blood leaks backward, the heart has to pump more blood with each beat to push the same amount of blood forward.…
The experimental drug being investigated in this study is called rucaparib. Rucaparib is being developed by Clovis Oncology, Inc. (the Sponsor), a biopharmaceutical company with headquarters in the United States (US). Rucaparib (trade name: Rubraca) is a medicine that is approved in the European Union (EU) and the US for use in certain types of ovarian…
The Amulet IDE trial is a prospective, randomized, multi-center active control worldwide trial, designed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the AMPLATZER Amulet Left Atrial Appendage Occluder. Subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio between the Amulet LAA occlusion device (treatment) or a Boston Scientific WATCHMAN LAA closure device (Control).…
We are looking for adults who have had a stroke to participate in testing of a new robotic device for the hand. If you had a stroke over six months ago and now have difficulty using your hand, you may qualify to participate in this study. Time commitment: ~4 weeks, 3x/week, Compensation: $50 per testing visit, $25 per training session.
Stroke often results in limitation of arm movements, from which many people do not fully recover. We believe that early and intensive therapy is important to enhance recovery of arm movements after stroke. We are doing this research study to see how much arm movements improve with intensive therapy in patients have had a stroke in the past 5 weeks. We will…
SY-1365 is an investigational drug that stops the function of a protein known as CDK7. Previous workhas shown that CDK7 is necessary for some cancers to grow. Therefore, SY-1365 could be used to slow down the growth of cancer. This research study is being done to understand the highest tolerated dose of SY-1365, and to assess the safety of SY-1365 in…
This is a Phase 1/2 multicenter study of VX15/2503 in pediatric patients and young adults with solid tumors which have come back or have not responded to standard therapy. The study treatment is considered experimental because VX15/2503 is not approved by the United States (US) Food and drug Administration (FDA) for treating pediatric patients and young…
The study drug (TSR-042) in this study is designed to stop cancer from growing by helping your immune system recognize and fight the cancer. The Study Drug is designed to help your immune system by attaching to a protein called PD-1 and stopping one of the signals that keeps your immune system from recognizing the cancer. This may help your immune system…
