Since its launch in 2004, the overarching aim of the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) has been realized in informing the design of therapeutic trials in AD. ADNI3 continues the previously funded ADNI-1, ADNI-GO, and ADNI-2 studies that have been combined public/private collaborations between academia and industry to determine the relationships between the clinical, cognitive, imaging, genetic and biochemical biomarker characteristics of the entire spectrum of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The overall goal of the study is to continue to discover, optimize, standardize, and validate clinical trial measures and biomarkers used in AD research.

This study is a prospective, multicenter, randomized (2:1) controlled study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the LARIAT System to percutaneously isolate and ligate the Left Atrial Appendage from the left atrium as an adjunct to planned pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) catheter ablation in the treatment of subjects with symptomatic persistent or longstanding persistent atrial fibrillation. This study will be conducted in two stages: - Limited Early Stage (Stage 1): up to 250 subjects at up to 65 sites.

This is a Phase 2 study of newly diagnosed patients with high grade glioma (HGG) undergoing standard radiation therapy and temozolomide treatment. BMX-001 added to radiation therapy and temozolomide has the potential not only to benefit the survival of high grade glioma patients but also to protect against deterioration of cognition and impairment of quality of life. BMX-001 will be given subcutaneously first with a loading dose zero to four days prior to the start of chemoradiation and followed by twice a week doses at one-half of the loading dose for the duration of radiation therapy plus two weeks. Both safety and efficacy of BMX-001 will be evaluated. Impact on cognition will also be assessed. Eighty patients will be randomized to the treatment arm that will receive BMX-001 while undergoing chemoradiation and 80 patients randomized to receive chemoradiation alone. The sponsor hypothesizes that BMX-001 when added to standard radiation therapy and temozolomide will be safe at pharmacologically relevant doses in patients with newly diagnosed high grade glioma. The sponsor also hypothesizes that the addition of BMX-001 will positively impact the overall survival and improve objective measures of cognition in newly diagnosed high grade glioma patients.

This research study is to find out if brain stimulation at different dosage level combined with an efficacy-proven rehabilitation therapy can improve arm function. The stimulation technique is called transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS). The treatment uses direct currents to stimulate specific parts of the brain affected by stroke. The adjunctive rehabilitation therapy is called "modified Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy" (mCIMT). During this therapy the subject will wear a mitt on the hand of the arm that was not affected by a stroke and force to use the weak arm. The study will test 3 different doses of brain stimulation in combination with mCIMT to find out the most promising one.

The main goals of the CARE-C study are to demonstrate the effectiveness of HCV models of care in a rural state (A) to overcome barriers to HCV treatment uptake, (B) to increase retention in care, and (C) to broaden access to care. To achieve these goals the following two systems interventions will be separately implemented: (1) Implementation of the Psychosocial Readiness Evaluation and Preparation for hepatitis C treatment (PREP-C) and related standard of care best practice PREP-C related interventions facilitated by a social worker-patient navigator team, and (2) implementation of a modified ECHO model (with one patient visit at specialty center to include PREP-C and fibrosis assessment in contrast to standard ECHO model). To test the effectiveness of our two systems interventions 600 patients will be equally distributed into three study arms representing 3 care models: Arm 1: Current Care Model (management with current interdisciplinary team); Arm 2: PREP-C Model (management with expanded interdisciplinary team (social worker, patient navigator, PREP-C); and Arm 3: Modified ECHO Model (management with expanded team in collaboration with community providers).

This is a Phase 3 multicenter trial to evaluate safety and immune response of three consecutive production lots of freeze-dried (FD) MVA-BN smallpox vaccine. The vaccine will be given to healthy subjects who do not have a smallpox scar. Approximately 1110 subjects will be randomly enrolled into one of three groups: Group 1 will include 370 subjects, who will receive two separate injections (shot) with a short needle, given below the skin of the upper arm with 0.5 mL FD MVA-BN (Lot 1). Group 2 will include 370 subjects, who will receive two separate injections (shot) with a short needle, given below the skin of the upper arm with 0.5 mL FD MVA-BN (Lot 2). Group 3 will include 370 subjects, who will receive two separate injections (shot) with a short needle, given below the skin of the upper arm with 0.5 mL FD MVA-BN (Lot 3). The primary objective of the trial is to show that the immune response elicited (produced) by three consecutively produced MVA-BN lots are statistically (numerically) comparable.

open study

This study proposes to treat metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and head/neck squamous cell cancer (HNSCC) patients who are already initiating an immune checkpoint inhibitor (such as Nivolumab, Atezolizumab or Pembrolizumab) for disease treatment as per FDA approved guidelines. In these patients we will deliver a short-course radiation to a single systemic (non-CNS) site within 14 days of receiving the first dose of immune checkpoint inhibitors. This sequence allows radiation to release tumor antigens from immune inaccessible areas such as necrotic tumor or low perfusion to provide a robust anti-tumor immune response with immune checkpoint inhibitors. The primary objective is to assess six-month progression free survival (PFS) compared to historical control.
