Do you or your child have hidradenitis suppurativa? Would you be interested in hearing more about a clinical study on hidradenitis suppurativa? If so, you may be able to participate in a research study to find out how effective and safe the study medication Ruxolitinib is in patients with hidradenitis suppurativa.
The researchers at the UNC Food Allergy Initiative are looking for children with cashew allergies to participate in a research study in Chapel Hill. Specifically, this study will see if an experimental treatment using cashew drops placed under the tongue (sublingual immunotherapy, SLIT) for approximately 18 months can increase the amount of cashew that can be eaten safely without symptoms. This is called desensitization.
This research study aims to investigate the use of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) monitoring to detect early signs of cancer recurrence in patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) after standard treatment. TNBC is aggressive and has a higher risk of recurrence, often detected only after symptoms appear. This study will monitor ctDNA levels through blood samples collected during and after adjuvant therapy. If ctDNA is not detected, participants will continue monitoring. If ctDNA is detected, the study offers an investigational treatment, datopotamab deruxtecan (Dato-DXd), to address this potential recurrence risk. Participation in this study will help determine if ctDNA monitoring can improve the early detection of recurrence and potentially lead to better treatment strategies and outcomes for patients with TNBC in the future.

We're inviting people receiving lumpectomies for breast cancer to take part in a study looking at skin discoloration after the use of Magtrace®, a tracer already used to map sentinel lymph nodes during breast surgery. This research aims to understand how often skin discoloration occurs and how it affects patients over time. Participation involves questionnaires and skin imaging.
Do you have cancer that has spread to your bones (high-risk bone metastases)? Is your cancer not causing any pain, or asymptomatic? If so, you may be able to take part in a research study comparing the standard approach with the standard approach plus radiation therapy to see if it's better at lowering bone metastases-related complications.
