Pancreatic cancer is a deadly disease and the best hope for improving the chances of survival is to find it early. Some patients, called "high risk", have an inherited predisposition to pancreatic cancer. Certain medical centers have started programs where "high risk patients" undergo testing, such as receiving imaging scans, to look for…
Are you suffering from persistent symptoms that began after you were diagnosed and treated with antibiotics for Lyme Disease? This new research study aims to test a new form of treatment for people with persistent symptoms despite antibiotic treatment for Lyme disease. This treatment involves stimulating a nerve on the surface of your ear. This is called…
This study is called a screening study and the purpose of this study to find better ways to diagnose and treat leukemia that has come back after treatment or difficult to treat. Bone marrow, blood, and medical information about cancer and treatment will be collected. The results from this screening study may give other information about leukemia that is…
Have you been treated for Lyme Disease but continue to have brain fog or other cognitive problems? This research study will assess a non-medication non-invasive intervention to improve cognitive functioning in people with persistent cognitive problems despite prior antibiotic treatment for Lyme Disease. Participants will complete this 4 week intervention at…
This patient case registry for Lyme and other Tick-borne Diseases is a component of the Clinical Trials Network that was launched in 2021 by a grant from the Steven and Alexandra Cohen Foundation. The registry will gather general information such as demographics, medical history, and current functional status. This information will help researchers to…
This is a Phase 1 study of a drug called uproleselan. We are testing new experimental drugs such as uproleselan in the hopes of finding a treatment that may be effective against acute myeloid leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome or mixed phenotype acute leukemia that has come back or that has not responded to standard therapy. This study looks at how well…
The purpose of this study is to find the best dose of Quizartinib that can be given safely with chemotherapy in children and young adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) which has come back or has not responded to the standard therapy. Quizartinib will be given by mouth once a day from Day 6 through Day 28. It will be given in combination with…
The purpose of this study is to find out if the drugs called Nivolumab and 5-Azacytidine can be given safely in children and young adults with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) which has come back after treatment or has not responded to standard therapy. These drugs are thought to work by turning on genes that limit the growth of cancer cells. The study drugs…
The purpose of this study is to evaluate how safe and effective the NanoKnife System is at treating Stage 3 pancreatic adenocarcinoma. This is registry study and therefore, the NanoKnife System is not being used for study purposes. The safety and efficacy of this system will be evaluated by comparing survival rates, pain ratings, and number of adverse…
The purpose of this study is to learn which treatment works best in patients with pancreatic cancer. The study explores multiple treatment combinations. A study drug called atezolizumab may be combined with other drugs such as cobimetinib, PEGPH20, and BL-8040. Patients may also be assigned to receive standard chemotherapy treatment.
Are you suffering from chronic fatigue that began after you were diagnosed and treated with antibiotics for Lyme Disease? This new treatment research study investigates whether disulfiram, commonly known as "Antabuse", has the potential to be used as a treatment option for patients experiencing chronic post-treatment Lyme symptoms. This well-known…
The purpose of this study is to find the best dose of pevonedistat that can be given safely with chemotherapy in children with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) or Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) that has either come back or has not responded to the standard therapy. Pevonedistat works by blocking some of the enzymes that are needed for cell growth.
The CDC estimates that 10-20% of patients with Lyme disease will go on to have chronic symptoms despite having had appropriate treatment, a condition known as Post-Treatment Lyme Disease Syndrome (PTLDS). While there is currently no known cure, various therapies are being investigated. One promising approach is the practice of meditation and yoga which have…
This is a Phase 1 multicenter study of Decitabine (DEC) and Vorinostat (VOR) followed by the standard chemotherapy drugs (Fludarabine, Cytarabine and G-CSF (FLAG)). The study treatment is considered experimental because it is not approved by the United States (US) Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for treating children with acute myeloid leukemia (AML)…
This research study is being conducted to see if a new treatment using a study drug called Olaparib given after platinum based chemotherapy treatments can reduce the risk of pancreatic cancer from growing back. Participants will receive either Olaparib or placebo (no contains active medication) and will stay on the research study for as long as they are not…
The purpose of this study is to test whether GVAX pancreas vaccine and CRS-207 together are safe and work better than chemotherapy to treat individuals with advanced pancreatic cancer who have received at least one prior chemotherapy treatment for metastatic cancer. This study will also look at whether CRS-207 alone is safe and works better than…
The purpose of this study is to find out which doses of talimogene laherparepvec (T-Vec) can be given safely to patients with pancreatic cancer that is either too big to be taken out by surgery or has spread to other parts of the body. The study will also see if T-Vec can cause tumor shrinkage or prevent its growth. To find out which doses are safe, all…
