2. An Open Label Trial of TMS Therapy for Bipolar Depression

   Rochester, Minn.

   Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is an increasingly accepted neurostimulation- based treatment for major depressive disorder. While there is a growing anecdotal database supporting its use in bipolar depression the investigators propose to collect open label efficacy and safety data in a small population of patients with clinically verified bipolar disorder.

3. A Study to Evaluate Visually Inspired Patient Education Material on Willingness to Pursue Radiation Therapy

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

4. 8 Week Multi-site Study of MYDAYIS® for Bipolar Depression

   Rochester, Minn., Eau Claire, Wis., Austin, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness and safety of MYDAYIS® as an augmentation agent for bipolar depression.

5. A Study to Evaluate AAV8-human Cocaine Hydrolase to Treat Cocaine Use Disorder

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to see if an experimental agent, when given to subjects who wish to abstain from cocaine, will decrease their craving for cocaine and prevent them from relapsing and returning to cocaine use.  This experimental agent is called AAV8-hCocH; and it is a gene modified viral vector.  We want to determine the safety of its use in adults who have a cocaine use disorder in sustained remission.  

6. Attitudes and Beliefs About Gene Transfer Therapy in Adults with Cocaine Use Disorder

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to investigate the facilitators and barriers of adults with a history of cocaine use disorder (CocUD) in sustained remission to participating in a Phase I gene transfer study aimed at reducing the rate of cocaine relapse. 

7. ALTE07C1, Neuropsychological and Behavioral Testing in Young Patients with Cancer

   Rochester, Minn.

   This research trial studies neuropsychological (learning, remembering or thinking) and behavioral testing in younger patients with cancer. Collecting information over time from a series of tests may help doctors develop effective tests to measure neuropsychological and behavioral function of patients with cancer.

8. A Study to Build Translational Science through an Online Social Media Community Partnership Among Minnesota Communities, the CTSA Community Engagement Programs at Mayo Clinic and the University of Minnesota

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to develop and pilot a novel community-engaged communication network statewide in Minnesota through social media; to assess community knowledge, attitudes, and perceptions of ongoing and completed research, and to increase access to information about and participation in research. 

9. A Study to Optimize Endocrine Therapy Through Motivational Interviewing and Text Interventions

   Albert Lea, Minn.

   This study aims to compare an additional support program (text message reminders and/or telephone-based counseling) with usual care in making sure breast cancer patients take their endocrine therapy medication as prescribed (medication adherence). 

10. Happigenius Social-Emotional Learning Curriculum in Rochester Public Schools

    Rochester, Minn.

    The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness of HappiGenius curriculum in 3rd grade students attending elementary school in the Rochester Public Schools system (Rochester, MN). Convenience samples are selected from students in classrooms receiving the HappiGenius curriculum in their normal school curriculum and students in classrooms that have opted not to have HappiGenius in their classroom this term. For the study, questionnaires will be administered at the start and conclusion of HappiGenius lessons to determine whether HappiGenius curriculum delivers the core competencies of improved attention, positive affect, self-awareness, sociality, and self-kindness.
