This study aims to use new technology involving molecular and imaging tests to help detect liver cancer early in patients. Participants enrolled will participate in it for approximately 5 years. The purpose of this study is to determine if an experimental drug, INT-787, is safe and effective in patients who are hospitalized…
The purpose of this randomized controlled trial (RCT) is to evaluate a decision support website (RealRisks) designed to inform patients about breast cancer prevention options. It is coupled with a physician-centered (BNAV) decision support website as part of clinical workflow in the primary care setting. The investigators…
Patients will be asked to participate in this research study because they have been diagnosed with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) which is a type of liver cancer. By doing this study, researchers hope to: Find out more about patients that have HCC including their age, race/ethnicity, and other medical conditions they may have…
We are conducting a series of focus group sessions to investigate the attitudes and opinions of young Black women regarding breast cancer, breast cancer risk, and biomarker-based screening to inform current breast cancer screening guidelines.
We are recruiting volunteers, aged 18-70, 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 temporarily induce or accentuate insulin resistance in 14 volunteers…
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 healthy…
While optical colonoscopy (OC) is considered the gold standard for colorectal cancer screening, there are alternative approaches to visualization of the colon. Participants will receive screening by either colon capsule endoscopy (CCE) and computed tomographic colonography (CTC). They will be instructed to follow a detailed…
This study is evaluating genomic screening in Ashkenazi Jewish and Hispanic communities. Genomic screening is done by collecting a blood sample and looking at a person's genes to learn if they are at high risk for certain health problems like cancer or heart disease or are at risk to have a child with a genetic condition. The…
