Emotion Regulation and Mother-Infant Synchrony

The aim of this study is to better understand emotion regulation in infants by measuring brain, behavior, and mother-infant relational mechanisms. We plan to collect simultaneous brain activation in mothers and infants while they engage in a face-to-face interaction. We will then test associations between individual brain activation, mother-infant brain synchrony, and infant emotion regulation behaviors.

Participants complete questionnaires online, then come in for 1 in-person visit. Mother and baby complete a play and a neutral task while fNIRS is collected from them simultaneously.

Understanding the effect of drivers’ profile information on riders’ feedback in ride-sharing context

This study aims to understand ways to affect how riders perceive and provide feedback to drivers through technology intervention. Particularly, we investigate how presenting drivers’ personal profile under different trip conditions may lead to differences in the ways riders may provide feedback. We hypothesize that riders will provide positive feedback when provided drivers’ personal information when the trip goes well, and that riders will provide less negative feedback when provided drivers’ personal information when the trip goes bad due to uncontrollable reasons.

PSCI 24-106 A: A Randomized Phase II Study of Venetoclax and HMA-based Therapies for the Treatment of Older and Unfit Adults with Newly Diagnosed FLT3-mutated Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML): A MyeloMATCH Treatment Trial

As part of the myeloMATCH Older Adult AML basket, a comprehensive geriatric assessment will be implemented across intensive and non-intensive treatment studies to validate measures of fitness and frailty that predict for treatment-related morbidity and mortality. The overall goal of the geriatric assessment will be to validate measures to be incorporated in future older adult AML myeloMATCH studies to prospectively define “fitness” for intensive chemotherapy.

Subject will either get Azacitidine through a vein in their arm or subcutaneously and Venetoclax by mouth for up to 2 years, or will get Azacitidine through a vein in your arm or subcutaneously, Venetoclax and Gilteritinib as tablets that you take by mouth for up to 2 years. After you finish your study treatment, doctor will continue to follow condition for 10 years.

PSCI 24-106: Myelomatch, Master Screening And Reassessment Protocol (MSRP) For Tier Advancement In The NCI Myelomatch Clinical Trials

The purpose of the study is to see if blood and bone marrow samples can be tested in a timely manner for markers that could guide cancer treatment. The testing will look for markers that specific treatments may target. Based on test results, the subject will have the option to join a myeloMATCH treatment substudy for treatment or receive standard of care treatment from your doctor.

Participants will give bone marrow and blood samples for testing. Your samples will be tested for specific cancer biomarkers. After the study receives the results of your biomarker testing, the physician will tell you if there is a myeloMATCH treatment substudy available that matches your results. If a substudy is available the study doctor will give the subject more information about it and help the subject understand the details of the study.

NRG-CC014: Radiation Therapy for High-Risk Asymptomatic Bone Metastases: A Pragmatic Multicenter Randomized Phase 3 Clinical Trial (PREEMPT)

This study is being done to answer the following question: Will preventative radiation therapy lower the number of bone metastases-related complications (such as fracture caused by the tumor in the bone and tumor pushing on the spinal cord) compared to the usual approach? We are doing this study because we want to find out if this approach is better or worse than the usual approach for your type of cancer. The usual approach is defined as care most people get for high-risk bone metastases that are not causing symptoms.

If the participant decides to take part in this study, they will either get the usual approach or they will get radiation therapy for up to 5 days plus the usual approach. After the participant finishes treatment, the doctor and study team will continue to follow their condition and watch for side effects. The doctor and study team will check the participant 3, 6, 12, and 24 months after they join the study.

PSCI 24-073 TRANSPARENT: Single-Arm Study of Toripalimab in Combination with Cisplatin and Gemcitabine in Recurrent Metastatic Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Systemic Treatment Naïve Participants

Participants will be required to come to all study visits. At those visits the following may occur, blood tests to see if you are well enough to participate or continue to participate in the trial, a physical exam by the study doctor, meeting with the study team to talk about how you are feeling followed by getting toripalimab and chemotherapy. At other time you will need to have scans to see if how your cancer has responded to the treatment. These visit will continue until your cancer grows back, doesn’t respond to the treatment or the study is stopped by the sponsor. Although toripalimab is approved for the treatment of NPC, it is not approved to be used with these other two drugs.
