Until now, clinicians have been challenged to improve the treatment of biochemically recurrent (BCR) prostate cancer in which prostatic specific antigen (PSA) rises without radiological or clinical progression years after localized treatment (radical prostatectomy or radiation therapy) with or without hormonal treatment. Approximately 50-90% of men with high-risk prostate cancer will experience a BCR. Artesunate has demonstrated anti-tumor activity in both in vivo and in vitro cell lines. It is hypothesized that Artemisia annua (Aa) coffee has the potential to decrease rising PSA among patients with biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer.

Directly reinforcing abstinence from alcohol with monetary incentives is an effective treatment for alcohol dependence, but barriers in obtaining frequent, verified biochemical measures of abstinence limit the dissemination of this treatment approach. The goal of this study is to use technological advancements to remotely, accurately, and securely monitor alcohol use with a newly developed smartphone app and breathalyzer. This treatment approach has the potential to facilitate the dissemination of an effective, evidence-based treatment for alcohol dependence to a broader population whose treatment needs are not currently being adequately met.

The goal is to assess the toxicity and tolerability and determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD)/recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of the combination of nilotinib with dabrafenib and trametinib. Additionally, this study will assess pharmacokinetic parameters of dabrafenib and nilotinib when used in combination.

Ten participants will be allocated to receive either DMED (n=5) or DMED + ANGI (n=5) based on a block design. Participants and assessors will be blinded to group allocation. Excess sural nerve samples will be collected for banking/analysis (may include proteomic, culturing, genomic, cellular analysis).

People with heart failure who do not take their medications as prescribed are at high risk of complications leading to hospitalization, death and poor quality of life. In the proposed intervention, nurses will use easy-to-understand language to coach patients and their care partners to help them work together and build skills to overcome their individual barriers to adherence in order to 1) improve and sustain patient medication adherence; 2) reduce hospitalization; 3) improve quality of life. If effective, this intervention will support long-term medication adherence, thus reducing hospitalizations related to heart failure and quality of life.

open study

This study will use a between-person design. Participants will be treatment-seeking patients with chronic masticatory muscle pain. Participants who are eligible for the study and consent to participate will be randomly assigned to receive a brief behavioral intervention for chronic orofacial pain called Physical Self-Regulation or a control intervention. Interventions will be administered via telehealth in both arms. Both interventions will consist of 2 50-minute sessions scheduled approximately two weeks apart. Participants will be contacted two weeks and three months after completing the interventions to provide additional follow-up data. Investigators hypothesize that both PSR-TH and the control intervention will demonstrate strong feasibility (i.e., recruitment of at least 1 participant per week, >75% retention, >95% interventionist fidelity, and adequate acceptability, credibility, and burden). Investigators also hypothesize that specific biopsychosocial variables will moderate PSR-TH-related changes in outcomes, and that PSR-TH-related changes in perceived control over pain, self-efficacy, coping, parafunctional habits, and relaxation will mediate treatment effects.

The proposed study aims to evaluate the CNS penetration of telavancin in a critically ill population using cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) drawn from external ventricular drains (EVDs) in patients who have had spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Patients with SAH were chosen as the target population because they frequently require prolonged admission to the intensive care unit and drainage of CSF in order to prevent hydrocephalus. The estimated sample size is 20 subjects. This is a prospective cohort of patients with SAH. Patients will be included if they have a spontaneous SAH, aged 18-65 years old, Hunt-Hess score of 1-4 & has an actively draining ventriculostomy. Subjects will receive telavancin 10mg/kg (maximum 1000mg) every 24 hours for 3 consecutive doses. Serial serum and CSF samples will be obtained. An 8-hour urine collection will be completed on study day 2 in order to define the patient's measured creatinine clearance.

The goal of the study is to examine multiple markers of anthropometrics, body composition, sarcopenia and frailty and compare them to dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) output, which is considered the current clinical gold-standard tool to measure body composition. The result of this study will provide detailed data regarding the nutrition and body composition within this Cystic Fibrosis population and also provide a baseline evaluation for use of these biomarkers in the future studies including evaluation of nutritional intervention. Further, the study will also include psychosocial and other patient-reported outcomes and medical contributors to understand their contributions to the nutritional failure in the adult advanced lung disease population. Finally, the study will evaluate both established and emerging nutritional and body composition parameters and link them to clinical outcomes in adults with CF across the spectrum of pulmonary function.
