Title: Evaluation of Long-term Neuropsychologic and Cognitive Outcomes in Patients with Unruptured Intracranial Aneurysms
Brief Title: Neuropsychologic Outcomes for UIAs
Brief Summary: The aim of this study is to investigate neurocognitive effects of UIA treatment in patients receiving elective treatment at BIDMCs Neurosurgical Department for UIAs. Therefore, a longitudinal study design has been chosen, in which 200 patients across two sites will be evaluated neuropsychologically on 3 separate occasions: on first clinic visit, 3 months after diagnosis or treatment, and 1 year after diagnosis or treatment. This information will be gathered and evaluated for outcomes of neurocognitive functioning after treatment.

Title: Treatment Resistant Depression Subcallosal Cingulate Network DBS
Brief Title: TRANSCEND Study
Brief Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of bilateral
stimulation of the subcallosal cingulate white matter (SCCwm) using Deep Brain
Stimulation (DBS) as an adjunctive treatment of non-psychotic unipolar Major Depressive
Disorder (MDD) in adults.

Title: A First-in-human (FIH) Study of Inhibitory Interneurons (NRTX-1001) in Drug-Resistant Unilateral Mesial Temporal Lobe Epilepsy (MTLE)
Brief Title: NTE001
Brief Summary: This clinical trial is designed to test whether a single image-guided intracerebral
administration of inhibitory nerve cells, called interneurons (NRTX-1001), into subjects
with drug-resistant unilateral mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE), with or without
mesial temporal sclerosis (MTS), is safe (frequency of adverse events) and effective
(seizure frequency). NRTX-1001 comprises human interneurons that secrete a
neurotransmitter, gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA).
