The study involves research about MGA271 in combination with Keytruda. MGA271 targets cancer cells that make a lot of a protein called B7-H3. Another way to say it is that the cells "overexpress" the protein. Very few normal cells express B7-H3. MGA271 is though to work by recognizing cancer cells that overexpress B7-H3 and directing the body…
If so, you may be able to take part in a clinical research study. This study is being done to see how wellcarbon dioxide (CO2) may provide relief from the pain associated with Trigeminal Neuralgia (TN). CO2 is a gas that is part of the air we breathe and is used to make bubbles in carbonated drinks. The screening and treatment office visit can be done in…
This study plans to learn more about a device called the Cefaly and if it is effective for treating migraine attacks.
