Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD)
Summary

DROP-FPF is a clinical study that will assess whether an investigational medication called nerandomilast can reduce the risk of interstitial lung abnormalities (ILAs) or interstitial lung disease (ILD) getting worse over time. By learning more about people with early lung abnormalities, it may inform researchers how to reduce the risk of developing progressive pulmonary fibrosis.

The Effects of Self-Imagery Rescripting Paired with Transcutaneous Auricular Vagus Nerve Stimulation on Symptoms of Social Anxiety

PRO Number

Researcher
Lisa McTeague

List of Studies


Keywords
Anxiety, Brain, Ears, Healthy Volunteer Studies, Mental Health
Summary

The purpose of this study is to better understand how ear stimulation techniques may impact how people think about themselves in social situations. The goal is to identify how the addition of ear stimulation can impact cognitive processes, including the ways that people think about themselves in social situations and attend to or process social information, that underly an activity known as "self-imagery rescripting." Eligible individuals who are between the ages of 18 and 65 years will complete a variety of activities after providing consent to study participation. These include: (1) completing questionnaires on the computer, (2) completing tasks similar to a video game on the computer, (3) having an electrode attached to their ear that will stimulate nerve activity, (4) completing an interview about how they feel in social situations, and (5) engaging in an activity during which they will be prompted about how they see themselves in social situations. Throughout these activities, participants also will be asked to wear a variety of sensors, bundled together in a cap for their head and individually on other parts of their body, that will collect information about brain activity, heart rate, and eye blinking. Participation in this research study is entirely voluntary and will last approximately 3 hours during a single session at the Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston. Participants will be compensated for their time.

There are some risks associated with this study. Some survey questions ask about personal thoughts and feelings. Ear stimulation may cause tingling sensations or irritation around the ear. Thinking and talking about how one sees themselves in social situations may be distressful.

There are no direct benefits to participants. This study will help researchers better understand how ear stimulation can improve the strategies that can help the way that people think about themselves in social situations.

A Phase 3 Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel Group, Multicenter Protocol in Adults with an Open Label Study in Adolescents to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Induction and Maintenance Therapy with Icotrokinra in Participants With Moderately to Severely Active Ulcerative Colitis

Researcher
Erin Forster

List of Studies


Keywords
Digestive System, Ulcerative colitis
Summary

This study aims to evaluate the clinical development program for icotrokinra in the treatment of adult participants with moderately to severely active UC. Icotrokinra may offer additional advantages beyond injectable antibody therapies and available
oral therapies for the treatment of patients with moderate to severely active UC due to its oral route of administration, high local exposure to GI tissues, and systemic activity. Overall, the program will evaluate icotrokinra treatment in a target of 822 adult and 60 adolescent participants through at least 52 weeks but participants can participate in a long-term extension for 4 years (total duration approximately 5 years).

Summary

This study is recruiting patients receiving cancer treatment that includes a type of drug called an "alkylating agent", which may cause side effects such as damage to the ovaries (female reproductive organs). The goal of the study is to determine the feasibility of conducting a cross network, multi-site, randomized clinical trial of triptorelin among newly diagnosed adolescent and young adult (AYA) female cancer patients age <40 years (exclusive of breast cancer). The triptorelin used in this study may affect how different parts of your body work such as your liver, kidneys, heart, and blood. Participants will receive the medications through an intramuscular (IM) injection in their arm. Study participation is expected to last up to three years.

Summary

We will gather feedback from healthcare providers and pregnant or up to two years postpartum adult women to better understand their needs and experiences related to traumatic stress and alcohol use during pregnancy. We will conduct focus groups with maternal health and mental health professionals, as well as conduct 60-minute interviews along with a survey/questionnaire with pregnant women who are experiencing both alcohol-related challenges and trauma-related symptoms. What we learn from these conversations will help us tailor services to address the unique needs of women during pregnancy and the postpartum period.
