Condition: Neurological Disorders / Multiple Sclerosis
Investigator: Victoria Leavitt, PhD
Status: Closed
ASPIRE is a clinical trial to investigate aspirin as a treatment to improve exercise performance in people with multiple sclerosis (MS) who experience overheating during exercise. Persons with multiple sclerosis benefit from exercise, but many avoid it because of exhaustion and overheating. This…
Condition: Neurological Disorders / Multiple Sclerosis
Investigator: Rebecca Straus Farber, MD
Status: Closed
We are currently recruiting individuals with Multiple Sclerosis (MS), first-degree family members of persons with MS, and healthy individuals to take part in our research on the effects of probiotics. Our goal is to better understand how the health of the gut microbiome influences the immune system.
Condition: Neurological Disorders / Multiple Sclerosis
Investigator: Rebecca Straus Farber, MD
Status: Closed
This study will be used to evaluate the immunologic effects of Prebiotics (soluble fiber required by beneficial bacteria), in comparison to Probiotics (beneficial bacteria), in individuals with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and Clinically Isolated Syndrome (CIS).
Condition: Neurological Disorders / Multiple Sclerosis
Investigator: Rebecca Straus Farber, MD
Status: Closed
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the differences between immune profiles of individuals remaining on Ocrelizumab/Rituximab versus those transitioning to diroximel fumarate at two years. Baseline visits for subjects transitioning to diroximel fumarate (DRF) will take place 6 months after last Ocrelizumab (OCR) or Rituximab (RTX) dose, prior to…
Condition: Neurological Disorders / Multiple Sclerosis
Investigator: Claire Riley, MD
Status: Closed
The purpose of this study is to see if ocrelizumab (study drug) will stabilize, or potentiallyimprove the signs and symptoms of your MS. Ocrelizumab is a type of drug called amonoclonal antibody. Monoclonal antibodies act like your bodys immune system andattach to certain cells in order to attack germs and other illnesses in your body.Ocrelizumab attaches…
Condition: Lung Disease
Investigator: Nina Patel, MD
Status: Closed
This study is for patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) and associated Interstitial Lung Disease. Systemic sclerosis or systemic scleroderma is a disease that causes thickening of the skin and the internal organs which often includes the kidneys, heart, lungs and gastrointestinal tract. Your…
Condition: Autoimmune Disorders
Investigator: Elana Bernstein, MD
Status: Closed
Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a systemic connective tissue disease characterized by fibrosis and atrophy, namely of the skin, internal organs, joints, and skeletal muscles. This is a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to test the efficacy of abatacept (Orencia) on the treatment of diffuse cutaneous systemic…
Condition: Autoimmune Disorders
Investigator: Elana Bernstein, MD
Status: Closed
Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a systemic connective tissue disease characterized by fibrosis and atrophy, namely of the skin, internal organs, joints, and skeletal muscles. There are numerous manifestations of SSc that affect multiple organ systems. The major pulmonary manifestations of SSc, interstitial lung disease and…
Condition: Liver Disease
Investigator: Elizabeth Verna, MD
Status: Closed
This is a 20-year study of adult patients with Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC). The purpose of this research study is to evaluate PSC throughout North America, as PSC is a rare disease, and not enough information is available for patients, clinicians, and researchers to help guide medical decisions and to help find new treatment options. Participants…
Condition: COVID-19 (Coronavirus)
Investigator: Philip De Jager, PhD
Status: Closed
We need your help today to gather information about the experience of multiple sclerosis (MS) patients and the general population during the COVID-19 pandemic. Most MS patients take one of over a dozen of medications to control their disease, and these medications alter the immune system. These effects are not as strong as…
Condition: Neurological Disorders
Investigator: Hiroshi Mitsumoto, MD
Status: Closed
The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and effectiveness of tirasemtiv as a potential new therapy for the improvement of breathing, muscle weakness and muscle fatigue in patients with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). The effects of tirasemtiv on the performance of your elbow, wrist, knee, ankle, and hand…
Condition: Kidney Disease
Investigator: Jai Radhakrishnan, MD
Status: Closed
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of an investigational medication in patients with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). The goal is to learn whether the investigational medication may change the amount of protein in the urine and decrease proteinuria.
Condition: Kidney Disease
Investigator: Wooin Ahn, MD
Status: Closed
Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is a disease in which your kidneys allow an excess amount of protein in your urine. Too much protein in the urine (also called proteinuria) is a medical condition called nephrotic syndrome. The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the study drug…
Condition: Autoimmune Disorders
Investigator: Elana Bernstein, MD
Status: Closed
The purpose of this study is to find out whether a drug called iloprost is safe to use in people with systemic sclerosis (SSc) (Raynaud's phenomenon), and whether it may help decrease symptomatic digital ischemic episodes (episodes in the fingers).
Condition: Autoimmune Disorders
Investigator: Elana Bernstein, MD
Status: Closed
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness and safety of a study drug called abituzumab in subjects with systemic sclerosis-associated interstitial lung disease (SSc-ILD). The study will also look at the following: How the study drug affects other symptoms of SSc-ILD -How safe the study drug is (i.e. if there…
Condition: Lung Disease / Pulmonary Hypertension
Investigator: Elana Bernstein, MD
Status: Closed
This study involves two infusions of either rituximab or placebo, two right heart catheterizations (6 months apart), and a variety of other clinical study procedures and exams.
Condition: Autoimmune Disorders
Investigator: Elana Bernstein, MD
Status: Closed
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of abituzumab in subjects withsystemic sclerosis-associated interstitial lung disease (SSc-ILD).Abituzumab is an investigational drug that is being evaluated for the treatment of patients withsystemic sclerosis (SSc)-associated…
Condition: Kidney Disease
Investigator: Gerald Appel, MD
Status: Closed
We are particularly interested in the diseases that cause nephrotic syndrome called Focal and Segmental Glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), Minimal Change Disease (MCD), and Membranous Nephropathy (MN). By collecting health information and laboratory samples, our goal is to learn more about diseases and find better ways to prevent and…
Condition: Healthy Volunteers
Investigator: Akiva Mintz, MD, PhD
Status: Closed
Neurodegenerative diseases are conditions where the brain cells break down, causing mental and/or physical impairment. Alzheimer's Disease is a neurodegenerative disorder that affects millions of individuals and causes irreversible memory loss and cognitive impairment. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is also and incurable…
Condition: Neurological Disorders
Investigator: Matthew Harms, MD
Status: Closed
This is an observational study designed to collect information about Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration (FTLD) disorders. FTLD is a term for a related group of neurodegenerative disorders that cause impairments in personality, cognitive ability, language, and motor function. This study aims to build a reliable clinical research network to support treatment…
Condition: Neurological Disorders
Investigator: Karen Marder, MD, MPH
