This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of lebrikizumab when used in combination with topical corticosteroid (TCS) treatment, compared with placebo, in pediatric participants with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis. Participants found to be eligible according to all of the study entry criteria will be randomly assigned in a 2:1 ratio to receive either lebrikizumab or placebo. This study can last up to 32 weeks, with 4 study periods. Screening Period: up to 4 weeks (≤30 days), TCS Standardization Period: 2 weeks, Treatment Period: 16 weeks, Post-Treatment Safety Follow-up Period: 12 weeks.

In the United States, nearly 62,000 children and adolescents are bereaved by the death of a sibling each year. Bereaved siblings and parents are at a lifelong risk for negative physical and psychological outcomes, yet little is known about the support and resource needs in the first 6 months following death. The purpose of this study is to determine the best ways to identify bereavement needs and barriers to grief support for parents and children following sibling death and to assess how bereavement needs impact parental distress and child quality of life and grief.

This study is for children between 8 and 17 years of age who have experienced the death of a sibling in the past 24 months. Children must have a parent or primary care giver actively take part in the study with them as a parent-child dyad. Information from this study will be used to help understand how to improve the care and support of parents and siblings that have experienced a loss.

Maxillary expanders are orthodontic appliances that are commonly used to expand the upper jaw. The purpose of this study will be to compare the effects produced by two different maxillary expanders in children 8-13 years old. The first type of expander is made by hand in an orthodontic laboratory, and the second type of expander is designed on a computer and printed using 3D printers. Both expanders are already used in the MUSC Orthodontics Clinic. The purpose of this study is to see if the 3D printed expander is as effective as the traditional expander made by hand in the laboratory, with more comfort to the patient. Patients participating in the study will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: group A will be treated with a laboratory-made maxillary expander, and group B with a 3D-Printed maxillary expander. Information will be collected on the participants' standard clinical follow-up visits including photos, x-rays, and dental photo scans over the course of 6 months to see how the expander is working. In addition, as part of the research study, the participant will be asked to complete online questionnaires with assistance from parents or guardians about his/her quality of life and perception of possible pain and discomfort at different time points. The potential benefits of this study include the use of 3D technology to improve the quality of the orthodontic treatment, with more comfort to the patient.

This investigator-initiated research study supported by a pilot grant from MUSC-Siemens research collaboration, aims to test the feasibility and reproducibility of Ultrasound Shear wave elastography as a point of care tool in screening for hepatic fibrosis and steatosis in children 9-17 years of age with Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease.

A prospective parallel cohort study generating two groups of participants will be performed in NEPTUNE. The two groups are: (1) Cohort A which includes the FSGS/MCD Cohort; and the MN Cohort, both incipient and prevalent biopsied patients; and (2) Cohort B – a non-biopsy, treatment-naïve, pediatric cohort less than 19 years of age, cNEPTUNE. The sample size for the combined FSGS/MCD and MN Cohorts is a minimum of 800 participants, with a minimum of 375 new patients recruited under Protocol V5.0. The sample size for the second group, cNEPTUNE, will be a minimum of 200 participants. Participants will be recruited into each subgroup concurrently. All participants who meet the inclusion criteria at the participating centers will be enrolled if the participants or their legally authorized representative(s) provide comprehensive written informed consent. A recruit-to-replace strategy will be employed throughout the enrollment phase. Cohort A study visits including screening/eligibility, baseline, biopsy, and follow-up visits, and SMS texting. Study visits for Cohort B, cNEPTUNE, including screening/eligibility, baseline, follow-up visits, and SMS texting.

This is a Phase II (determine the safety and response of a drug) study that is looking at how long the contrast agent Gadopiclenol stays in the plasma (part of blood not including red cells) after a single injection during an MRI in children aged up to and including 23 months. Gadopiclenol is an investigational drug, which means that it is not approved by the FDA. This study will be assessing the safety of gadopiclenol for up to 3 months following the administration of gadopiclenol at the MRI, and will evaluate the quality of the images obtained from when gadopiclenol was used at the MRI. Blood samples will be collected three times within the 8 hours following the MRI for analysis of how much gadopiclenol is left in the blood.

The purpose of this research study is to evaluate Parent Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) delivered via telehealth for young children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and disruptive behavior problems. Participants will go through a screening to determine eligibility. Eligible families who choose to participate will complete 3 in-person visits at MUSC and may receive 10 telehealth therapy sessions, at no cost. Families will be compensated for their time.

The purpose of this research study is to determine if an investigational cream, ruxolitinib cream (0.75% and 1.5% strengths), is safe and effective to treat Atopic Dermatitis. In this study, ruxolitinib cream will be compared to a "vehicle cream." The vehicle cream looks like the ruxolitinib cream but contains no ruxolitinib. This study can last up to 55 weeks. For the first 8 weeks participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the ruxolitinib cream or vehicle cream. For the following 44 weeks participants will receive the ruxolitinib cream.

The purpose of this study is to test and compare the effects of investigational drug risankizumab to the active control, ustekinumab, on pediatric plaque psoriasis. Subjects that meet all eligibility criteria will be randomized 2:1 to receive 150 mg dose of risankizumab and 45mg or 90 mg dose of ustekinumab - both drug dosages are determined by weight. At Week 16, subjects receiving ustekinumab or are unresponsive to risankizumab, will be switched to or continue to receive 150 mg risankizumab every 12 weeks. Subjects that are responsive to risankizumab at Week 16, will be re-randomized 1:1 to continue risankizumab or withdrawal from the study drug. Subjects randomized to withdrawal will receive no study drug until a flare occurs, after which they will enter a 16-week re-treatment period.

This study is being done to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ARQ-151 cream in subjects with mild to moderate eczema (atopic dermatitis) after application once every day for a month. Results will be compared against a vehicle (placebo). The vehicle is a dummy drug made from the same base product used to make ARQ-151 cream, but it does not contain any active study drug. ARQ-151 is a cream that contains the active ingredient roflumilast. Roflumilast is marketed in Canada, the United States, and other countries as a tablet (pill taken by mouth) for flares of a specific chronic lung disease. You will apply the study drug on your eczema lesions once a day for 28 days. The study doctor will tell you which lesions to treat. Any newly appearing eczema lesions that arise during the study must also be treated.
