Kidneys, Bladder and Urinary System

We are doing this study to keep tabs on the performance of a medical device called TVT Exact. This device is used to help control stress urinary incontinence. We want to know how well this device works long-term in Duke patients who elected to use it.

Compensation: No
Ages: 21-110
Non-Oncology
Other
Primary Brain and Spinal Cord Tumors

We are doing this study to find out if a drug called fluoxetine (the study drug) can cause changes to structures in your cells called lysosomes that then improve how well the chemotherapy drug temozolomide (TMZ) kills cancer cells in the brain. Lysosomes are organelles (structures in cells) that contain digestive enzymes (substances that break down chemicals) that help keep the cells free of extra or worn out cell parts. The study drug is approved by the FDA to treat problems like depression and anxiety, but we do not know if it also might be beneficial in treating cancer.

Compensation: No

Heart and Circulation

We are doing this study to find out if an experimental drug called XC001 (the study drug) is an effective option for people who have angina that is caused by coronary artery disease. We want to know if the study drug can provide relief when common, approved therapies have failed to do so. The study drug is made using an adenovirus (one of the causes of the common cold). The adenovirus in the study drug is genetically altered so it is able to deliver a protein called VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) to the heart and potentially spur the growth of new blood vessels.

Compensation: Yes
Ages: 18-85
Non-Oncology
Duke University Hospital
Skin Cancer - Melanoma

We are doing this study to find out if surgically removing only the cancerous lymph node (known as a lymph node excision) is effective at preventing melanoma from coming back in the same area of the lymph node excision. We also want to learn more about the side effects of this type of surgery and how it can impact patients' quality of life.

Compensation: No
Ages: 18-110
Oncology
Duke University Hospital
Genitourinary Cancer

We are doing this study to examine genetic changes in your tumor that may contribute to resistance to immunotherapy. With this information, we hope to be able to identify new treatment methods as well as improve our ability to identify patients more likely to respond to immunotherapy.

Compensation: No
Ages: 18-110
Oncology
Duke University Hospital
Transplant Medicine

We are doing this study to find out if an experimental drug called felzartamab (the study drug) is a safe and effective option for people who have had a kidney transplant and are experiencing antibody-mediated rejection (AMR). We want to know if this drug provides any helpful benefit.

Compensation: Yes
Ages: 18-110
Non-Oncology
Duke University Hospital
Skin Cancer - Melanoma

We are doing this study to find out if the experimental combination of the drugs finalimab and cemiplimab (the study drugs) is a safe and effective option for people with high-risk melanoma. We want to see how well the study drugs work compared to treatment with pembrolizumab.
