Simultaneous Establishment of Pancreas Cancer and Cancer-associated Fibroblast Using EUS-guided Biopsy Samples
Organoid has emerged as the novel platform for preclinical anticancer drug testing in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA). However, most organoid models are not reconstituted with a tumor microenvironment. This study aimed to simultaneously establish PDA organoids and cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) using endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle biopsy (EUS-FNB) samples.

Bupropion Versus Escitalopram on Reward Circuitry and Motivational Deficits
This study is designed to determine whether bupropion (vs escitalopram) increases functional connectivity (FC) within reward-related neurocircuits and decreases motivational deficits in depressed patients with increased inflammation and anhedonia. Participants will be randomized to take bupropion extended release (XL) or escitalopram for 8 weeks.

Pharmacogenomic-Guided Supportive Care in Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation (IMPPACT)
Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is the only curative treatment modality for many hematologic malignancies. Morbidity and mortality rates have declined drastically over the years, secondary to improvements in both transplant techniques and pharmacotherapies, including immunosuppressants, anti-infectives, analgesics and other supportive care medications. Despite advances in patient care, toxicities associated with …
