Validation of the prospective registry of outcomes in patients electing lung transplantation (PROPEL)
The research study is being conducted to develop a test to predict a common complication after lung transplant called primary graft dysfunction (PGD). Predicting PGD before using donor organs may help reduce deaths and improve outcomes of patients receiving a lung transplant in the future.
EA2197: Optimal Perioperative Therapy For Incidental Gallbladder Cancer (OPT-IN): A Randomized Phase II/III Trial
This phase II/III trial compares the effect of adding chemotherapy before and after surgery versus after surgery alone (usual treatment) in treating patients with stage II-III gallbladder cancer. This study will determine whether giving chemotherapy before surgery increases the length of time before the cancer may return and whether it …
Nivolumab in Treating Patients With Localized Kidney Cancer Undergoing Nephrectomy
This trial compares nephrectomy (surgery to remove a kidney or part of a kidney) with nivolumab to the usual approach of nephrectomy followed by standard post-operative follow-up and monitoring, in treating patients with kidney cancer that is limited to a certain part of the body (localized). Nivolumab is a drug …
Anticoagulation for New-Onset Post-Operative Atrial Fibrillation after CABG
The purpose of the research is to compare two commonly used treatment strategies for managing atrial fibrillation after cardiac surgery. Patients 18 yrs. or older are randomized within 7 days after scheduled to undergo coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), also known as bypass surgery. Only patients that undergo isolated CABG …
A Phase 3 Multicenter Study of Gleolan (Aminolevulinic Acid Hydrochloride) to Enhance Visualization of Tumor in Patients with Newly Diagnosed or Recurrent Meningiomas
This study is designed to investigate the safety, diagnostic performance, and clinical usefulness of Gleolan for the real time detection and visualization of meningiomas during tumor resection surgery. Potential patients who sign informed consent will be screened for eligibility before receiving an oral solution of Gleolan 3 hours prior to …
A Study Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of Adjuvant Atezolizumab and Trastuzumab Emtansine for Participants With HER2-Positive Breast Cancer at High Risk of Recurrence
This is a study in participants with HER2-positive primary breast cancer who have received preoperative chemotherapy and HER2-directed therapy, including trastuzumab followed by surgery, with a finding of residual invasive disease in the breast and/or axillary lymph nodes
The effect of Liposomal Bupivacaine on the quality of recovery in patients undergoing shoulder arthroscopy
The research study is being conducted to see if using liposomal bupivacaine for the interscalene block will improve the patient pain control and the whole patient’s experience 48 hours after surgery when compared to using the regular Marcaine in addition to the dexamethasone.
UPCC 02619: Adjuvant Nivolumab Or Ipilimumab + Nivolumab Determined By Pathological Response To A Single Dose Of Neoadjvuant Nivolumab
Subjects with Stage III resectable melanoma will receive adjuvant therapy, nivolumab or ipilimumab plus nivolumab, based on whether a pathologic complete response (CR) or near CR (less than 10% viable tumor cells) is achieved with one dose of nivolumab in the neoadjuvant setting followed by surgery.
Collection of Samples from the United States Population for Optimization and Evaluation of Colorectal Cancer (CRC) Plasma Circulating Free-DNA (cfDNA) Marker Panel Performance
This study is designed to prospectively collect blood samples and clinical data from subjects that have a suspected advanced adenoma or have been newly diagnosed with colorectal cancer and scheduled for resection surgery, and subjects who are at average risk of colorectal cancer and who are scheduled for routine colonoscopy …
UPCC 09618: Neoadjuvant PD-1 Blockade in Patients with Stage IIB/C Melanoma
The main purpose of this study is to determine the rate of positive sentinel lymph nodes (i.e. the closest draining lymph node(s) to the primary melanoma site) and to test whether treatment with pembrolizumab before surgery to remove melanoma reduces the rate of positive sentinel lymph nodes in patients with …
