- Crohn's / ulcerative colitis (IBD)
Statin Therapy in Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC): a Multi-omics Study
Studying how statin treatment affects biology in people with primary sclerosing cholangitis
📍 Stanford University · Stanford, CA · Get directions →
PSC is a liver disease that has no medical cure. Patients with PSC are at a greatly increased risk of cancer and infection.
- Dementia / Alzheimer'sParkinson's disease
PET Imaging Evaluation of [11C]SY08
Testing a PET scan tracer to detect alpha-synuclein protein clumps in dementia and Parkinson’s
📍 MGH · Charlestown, MA · Get directions →
The overall goal of the proposed research is to evaluate the use of \[11C\]SY08 as a PET radiotracer for aggregated alpha synuclein (αS) in individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD), Multiple system atrophy (MSA), Dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB) and healthy controls. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the use of \[11C\]SY08 as a PET radiotracer for αS fibrils in individuals with PD, MSA, DLB and healthy controls.
- Crohn's / ulcerative colitis (IBD)
Effect of Statins on Crohn's Disease
Testing whether statins can reduce gut narrowing (strictures) in adults with Crohn’s disease
📍 Stanford University · Stanford, CA · Get directions →
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if statins work to prevent strictures in adults with Crohn's disease. The main question it aims to answer is: * Can statins reduce the formation of strictures in participants with stricturing Crohn's disease?
- Crohn's / ulcerative colitis (IBD)
Cranberry and Gut Health in Crohn's Disease
Testing whether a cranberry supplement helps gut health in people with Crohn’s disease
📍 UMASS medical center · Worcester, MA · Get directions →
This study is investigating whether a cranberry-based dietary supplement, rich in polyphenols and fiber, can enhance gut health in individuals with Crohn's disease. People with Crohn's disease often have an imbalance in their gut microbiome (the community of bacteria in the gut).
- Sickle cell disease
Determination of Red Cell Survival in Sickle Cell Disease and Other Hemoglobinopathies Using Biotin Labeling
Measuring how long red blood cells last in sickle cell disease
📍 National Institutes of Health Clinical Center · Bethesda, MD · Get directions →
Background: Sickle cell disease (SCD) is an inherited disorder of the blood. SCD causes red blood cells (RBCs) to die early.
- Lupus (SLE)
Safety and Efficacy of ONT01 in Lupus
Studying whether ONT01 is safe and tolerated in people with lupus
📍 Hospital for Special Surgery · New York, NY · Get directions →
ONT01 is a drug that is being studied for the treatment of Lupus Nephritis (LN) and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) and is not approved by the FDA. The purpose of this study is to better determine whether ONT01 is safe and tolerated by people with lupus nephritis or SLE.
- Dementia / Alzheimer's
Educational Support Group Program for Bilingual and Spanish-speaking Carepartners and People With Progressive Aphasia
Testing an education and support group for people with progressive aphasia and their caregivers
📍 University of Texas at Austin · Austin, TX · Get directions →
The current study aims to examine the benefits of an education/support group program for individuals with progressive aphasia (caused by various etiologies, diagnoses) and their carepartners. The current study utilizes pre-, post-treatment, and follow-up assessments to measure effects of a psychoeducational support group and an implementation/communication skills training phase on measures of psychosocial function, communicative effectiveness and speech/language function.
- Dementia / Alzheimer's
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Treatment for Alzheimer's Disease
Testing whether rTMS affects memory and brain function in dementia
📍 Massachusetts General Hospital · Boston, MA · Get directions →
In this research study we want to learn more about the effects of non-invasive brain stimulation on memory and brain-network function in cognitively unimpaired older adults and in patients with amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI). This study will use a form of non-invasive brain stimulation called repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS).
- Crohn's / ulcerative colitis (IBD)
68Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT for Assessing Small Bowel Fibrostenosis in Crohn's Disease
Testing a scan to see early scarring in the small bowel in Crohn’s
📍 Mayo Clinic · Rochester, MN · Get directions →
This study is a prospective, case-control study evaluating whether the PET radiotracer 68Ga-FAPI-46 can detect fibrostenosing Crohn's disease in the small bowel. The goal is to determine whether areas of early or developing fibrosis ("pre-stricture" changes) demonstrate uptake of the tracer, which binds to fibroblast activation protein (FAP).
- DepressionDementia / Alzheimer's
Psilocybin for Depression in People With Mild Cognitive Impairment or Early Alzheimer's Disease
Testing psilocybin to treat depression in people with early Alzheimer’s or mild cognitive decline
📍 Johns Hopkins Center for Psychedelic and Consciousness Research · Baltimore, MD · Get directions →
This open-label pilot study examines whether the hallucinogenic drug, psilocybin, given under supportive conditions, is safe and effective for depression in people with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) or early Alzheimer's Disease (AD). This study will also assess whether psilocybin may improve quality of life in those individuals.
- Dementia / Alzheimer's
Glutathione, Brain Metabolism and Inflammation in Alzheimer's Disease
Testing glutathione on brain fuel use and inflammation in dementia
📍 Baylor College of Medicine · Houston, TX · Get directions →
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is associated with significant, progressive cognitive decline. Key defects in mitochondrial fuel metabolism insulin resistance, inflammation and decreased brain glucose uptake are linked to AD.
