Clinical Trials Directory
We are doing this study to find the most effective, safe dose of an experimental drug called FG-3246 (the study drug) that is being developed for people with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. We want to know if it is able to shrink the size of tumors and delay the progression of the disease.
We are doing this study to find out if an experimental drug called LY4337713 (the study drug) is a safe and effective option for people who have FAP-positive solid tumors. The study drug is a type of radiotherapy that is intended to target and attach only to FAP. The goal of targeted radiotherapy is to provide selective delivery of radiation doses that can destroy tumor cells.
People in this study will receive medicines to help prevent infections after a kidney transplant. They will be placed into one of two groups by chance. One group will receive a study medicine called frexalimab, while the other group will receive tacrolimus, a standard anti rejection medicine. Frexalimab is given right after the transplant, then again two weeks later, four weeks later, and every four weeks after that for up to five years. Participants will have regular blood tests, urine tests, physical exams, heart tests, questionnaires, and kidney biopsies to monitor their health and the transplanted kidney. Some activities, such as interviews and physical activity tracking, are optional. Researchers want to learn if frexalimab is a safe and effective alternative to tacrolimus for preventing kidney transplant rejection.
We are doing this study to understand more about biomarkers (a part of your body) and how they can be used to better diagnose infection. To learn more, please contact us at DukeMESSIStudy@Duke.edu or at 919-452-1605. Estamos haciendo este estudio para entender más sobre biomarcadores (que son parte de su cuerpo) y cómo pueden ser usados estos para diagnosticar infecciones de una mejor manera.

We are doing this study to learn more about the cause of cardiac (heart) disease or sudden unexplained death, which is something that can run in families. Some conditions that we are looking at are:
- Cardiomyopathies (a disease of the heart muscle that makes it harder for your heart to pump blood to the rest of your body) like hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, dilated cardiomyopathy, or arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (also called right ventricular cardiomyopathy)
- Arrhythmia syndromes (a problem with the rate or rhythm of the heartbeat, either too slow or too fast) like long QT syndrome, Brugada syndrome, catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia, or short QT syndrome
- Sudden cardiac arrest or unexplained sudden death (heart stops suddenly) in someone less than 50 years of age, including sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS)
- Individuals with genetic mutations (variants) in genes that can lead to cardiac disease which include (LMNA, ATP1A3, and TAX1BP3)
We are doing this study to learn more about how genetic variations in people can impact how well different antibody-based drugs work for people who get organ transplants.
