This Phase 3 study is designed to assess the long-term safety and efficacy of lebrikizumab in participants 6 months to <18 years of age with moderate-to-severe AD. Participants who have completed Study KGBI through Week 16 without requiring the use of systemic rescue medication will be eligible to enroll into Study KGBJ. All participants will receive active lebrikizumab treatment during Study KGBJ. The planned duration of treatment for each participant is approximately 52 weeks. All participants will enter a post-treatment safety follow-up period approximately 12 weeks after the last dose of lebrikizumab. This study will include both on-site (in clinic) and remote visits (telephone calls).
Patients between 4-21 years of age with at least one wart or molluscum lesion are eligible to participate in this study. The duration of the study is a minimum of 4 weeks with the maximum duration of monthly treatments for one year, depending on lesion clearance. The number of lesions will be chosen by the dermatologist. Patients who opt to participate will receive non-thermal, or cold, atmospheric plasma to treat all lesions selected. Safety profile as well as changes in size, pain and appearance will be measured. Photographs and dermatologist impressions will be used to measure treatment response.
The goal of this study is to develop a biorepository to store pediatric biospecimens from nephrology cohorts for on-going and future research studies. These studies plan to advance the state of science in the hopes to find more information that potentially leads to developing novel diagnostic approaches and identify therapeutic targets to prevent and/or treat pediatric disease involving the kidneys.
This study wants to understand how we can better identify children who have experienced or are at risk to experience child maltreatment. We will be interviewing caregivers of children and primary care providers (nurses, pediatricians, social workers) to understand their perspectives on screening for child safety risks in primary care settings. Interviews with providers will also focus on their feedback on a new tool to designed to detect child safety risks within health care settings. Findings will help inform best practice in integrated health care settings.
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.
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.
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.
This observational, multi-center cohort study of pediatric cardiac arrest management will contribute to a clinical CPR Learning Laboratory. The objectives of this study are to characterize the quality of CPR and post-cardiac arrest care delivered to children across a broad spectrum of hospitals, to determine the association between quantitative CPR quality measures (depth, rate, compression release, flow fraction) and survival to hospital discharge, and to determine the association of survival with site-specific post-cardiac arrest care (PCAC). The study will enroll pediatric cardiac arrests requiring chest compressions for ≥1 minute identified as part of standard clinical operations. The CPR quantitative measures, defibrillator data (when available), monitor data (when available), and post-arrest care will be de-identified and submitted to a central database.
This study is for patients with recurrent/progressive medulloblastoma, which is a type of childhood brain tumor. Participants in this study will receive intravenous (IV, into the veins) bevacizumab and intrathecal (into the spinal fluid) or intraventricular (into the fluid surrounding the brain) etoposide and cytarabine in combination with five oral (taken by mouth) chemotherapy drugs as a possible treatment for recurrent/progressive medulloblastoma. Total study duration is about 1 year and depending on how well a participant tolerates the medications and the response of the disease, the patient may continue the treatment after the first year.
