The main goal of this study is to evaluate how well taking oral elafibranor 80 mg daily works, compared to a placebo, in reducing or preventing the occurrence of death, liver transplant, worsening of liver disease, and liver disease-related complications in adults with PBC.

The purpose of this study is to test whether a drug called NS-229 (the study drug) is a potential treatment for patients with Eosinophilic Granulomatosis With Polyangiitis (EGPA).

NS-229 is an investigational drug that is provided in an oral pill form. An investigational drug is not approved by The US Food and Drug Administration. It can only be used in a research study like this one. In this study, NS-229 will be compared with a placebo (dummy drug), having no active drug in it. This is a randomized study, meaning that you will be assigned by chance (like flipping a coin) to receive either the study drug or placebo. The study is also double-blinded study, meaning you and your study doctor will not know what you are receiving, the NS-229 or placebo.

The study is sponsored by a NS Pharma, Inc. Participation in the study will require 12 visits to the MUSC main campus over approximately 8 months. Visits are much like the your standard of care and include the following procedures: blood draw, urine collection, physician-led assessments of your disease (for example physical exam and medical history review), tests to assess your lung function and health (Pulmonary Function Test (PFT) and spirometry, health questionnaires. You will also be asked to complete a daily diary regarding your medication use and vasculitis symptoms.

Compensation is available for participation

This study is designed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of using a combination of two different medications (extended release naltrexone and bupropion) compared to matching placebo (an inactive substance) in the treatment of methamphetamine use disorder. Participants will undergo screening, and if eligible, will receive study medications along with brief medication management for twelve weeks, with follow up visits at weeks 14 and 16. The total study duration is around 19 weeks.

The study seeks to evaluate the effectiveness of ARINA-1, an investigational inhaled medication, in reducing cough and mucus production in patients who are diagnosed with chronic bronchitis. If enrolled in this study, there will be four clinic visits, one telehealth visit, and one phone call. As part of the study assessments, a cough monitor will be worn on the wrist, as well as repeat spirometry, questionnaires, and bloodwork will be completed. The ARINA-1 will administered with a nebulizer provided to participants and is taken twice daily for 28 days. The total duration of this study is up to 12 weeks for each enrolled participant.

Compensation will be provided for your time for each visit that is completed.

This study is enrolling subjects with non-obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (nHCM). nHCM is typically a genetic condition in which the main pumping chamber of the heart (called the left ventricle) becomes abnormally thickened and stiff, which makes it harder for the ventricle to fill and pump out enough blood. This study involves the investigational medication Aficamten, which means it is not approved for commercial use by the Food and Drug Administration. (FDA) Aficamten is designed to reduced excessive heart pumping function. This is a randomized study which means all subjects are assigned to receive either Aficamten or placebo. Subjects have a 50:50 chance of being assigned to either group, but will not know which group they are assigned. Placebo looks like the medication but does not have any active ingredients in it. Study procedures include exercise testing, echocardiograms (ultrasound test of the heart), blood work, questionnaires and genetic testing. Study risks include risks associated with the study medication including decreased heart pumping, nausea, headache and dizziness. There are also study procedure related risks, and the risk of loss of confidentiality. There may be no benefit but the information learned may benefit others in the future. Study participation will last between 10.5 and 19 months and include up to 13 visits to the study site. Visits will generally last 2-3 hours.

This study involves research, and participation is voluntary. The purpose of the study is to see if a single dose and multiple doses of the study drug, AV 380, are safe and tolerated in cancer participants. This study will also help to look at how AV 380 behaves inside the human body (called pharmacokinetics), how the body responds to AV 380 (called pharmacodynamics), and how the immune system responds to AV 380 (called immunogenicity) when administered along with the standard anticancer treatment that a participant would usually receive if they were not in this study. First, the participant will have some tests to decide if it is safe for to join the study. These tests include blood and urine sampling, electrocardiogram, vital sign measurement, physical examination, cachexia assessment,which checks changes in proteins that affect appetite and computed tomography (CT) scan. If the study doctor thinks a participant is eligible to join, they will be assigned to one of 5 cohorts (a group of people with shared characteristics) (corresponding to 5 dose levels of AV 380) in which then they will receive AV 380 together with the Standard of Care treatment chemotherapy. Participants will need to visit the study site approximately every 1 week for the first 8 weeks and then every 2 weeks. In addition to the above-mentioned tests, then they will be also asked to have exercise tests and complete questionnaires during the study. Participants will also have post study treatment follow up visits 3 times after completion or discontinuation of AV 380. The total duration of the study is up to 7 months (including follow-up visits). Some reasonably foreseeable risks or discomforts with this study include chills, headache, and elevations in an enzyme called creatine phosphokinase which is found mainly in the heart, brain, and skeletal muscle. There is no direct benefit with participating in this study, but the information we get from this study will us improve treatment for people in the future.

They study is for patients that have have been diagnosed with platinum-resistant or platinum-refractory ovarian cancer (PRROC) which includes fallopian tube cancer and peritoneal carcinomatosis (a form of cancer that affects the thin membrane that surrounds your abdominal organs). The investigational drug used in this study is Olvi-Vec. The main purpose of the study is to determine how women diagnosed with PRROC will best respond to receiving Olvi-Vec followed by platinum-doublet chemotherapy (platinum-based chemotherapy such as carboplatin or cisplatin are given with a non-platinum based chemotherapy, including gemcitabine, paclitaxel, docetaxel, nab-paclitaxel, or pegylated liposomal doxorubicin [PLD]) along with bevacizumab, known as the Experimental Arm. Participants can expect to be in this study for up to 36 months.

This research is all about investigating a potential treatment for a specific type of advanced lung cancer. The cancer cells have a protein called c-Met that's acting a bit too excited, driving the cancer to spread and resist treatment. This study focuses on two treatments: one is called Telisotuzumab Vedotin (ABBV-399), which is a smart combination of an antibody and a drug that can stop this protein's activity. The other treatment is called Docetaxel. The researchers have already found in smaller studies that Telisotuzumab Vedotin could be promising for this type of cancer, especially in patients whose previous treatments didn't work well. Now they want to see if it can really make a difference in the long run. They'll be comparing Telisotuzumab Vedotin and Docetaxel to figure out which one is better at helping patients live longer without their cancer getting worse. In this study, participants will be randomly divided into two groups, like flipping a coin. One group will get a new medicine called telisotuzumab vedotin through a vein in their arm every two weeks. The other group will receive a treatment called docetaxel through a vein every three weeks. People in both groups will keep getting their assigned treatment until their doctors say it's time to stop based on certain criteria. Throughout the study, participants will have scans like X-rays or MRIs to see how their tumors are doing. These scans will happen at the beginning and then every few weeks for the first year, and less often as time goes on.Even if someone stops their treatment for a reason other than their cancer getting worse on these scans, the researchers will keep track of them until their cancer gets worse or until they decide they don't want to be in the study anymore.The whole study is expected to last around 38 months, which is a little over 3 years. They'll keep following up with the participants, either by talking to them, checking their medical records, or other appropriate methods, until the participants decide to leave the study or pass away. This study is a big step towards finding better options for people battling this tough form of lung cancer.

This study aims to investigate innovative approaches to managing chronic pain and opioid use. This study consists of two phases, each offering different treatment options. Participation is voluntary.

This study will sequentially evaluate three novel and scalable interventions for at-risk individuals on long term opioid therapy for chronic pain: (1) low-dose transdermal buprenorphine initiation without a period of opioid withdrawal; (2) a brief Cognitive Behavioral Intervention for pain (CBI); and (3) transcranial magnetic stimulation by examining standardized repeated measures of clinical outcomes at baseline, during treatment, and at follow-up.

Phase 1:
In this initial phase, all participants will have a 1-week open-label trial of buprenorphine (worn as a patch on the arm, shoulder or upper-back). This trial aims to assess the safety and effectiveness of buprenorphine in managing chronic pain and opioid use. During this phase, participants will have the opportunity to experience the effects of buprenorphine under close monitoring.

Phase 2:
After completing Phase 1, participants will have the opportunity to choose their next course of treatment. They can decide to continue with buprenorphine, and undergo a 1-week trial of either real buprenorphine or a placebo (an inactive substance). They will be randomly assigned to receive either real or placebo buprenorphine. If participants respond well to buprenorphine treatment, they may continue the medication under the care of their physician.

Alternatively, participants can explore an alternative treatment called repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) in Phase 2. If they opt for rTMS, they will receive either real rTMS or a sham version interspersed with cognitive-behavioral therapy for pain. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either real or sham rTMS.

In both phases, participants will receive close monitoring and attend regular study visits to assess safety and progress. Throughout the study, they will be asked to complete questionnaires about pain, functioning and opioid use, undergo physiological monitoring and blood samples will be collected at specific points.

It's important to note that there are potential risks associated with the study medication, such as difficulty sleeping, nausea, and dizziness. Additionally, for the rTMS arm, there is risk of mild headache, pain at the stimulation site, and there may be unknown risks related to the brain stimulation.

Participants' experience in Phase 1 will involve an open-label trial of buprenorphine, and participants' decisions in Phase 2 will determine the treatment path. While the effectiveness of these treatments is uncertain, participants will receive thorough monitoring throughout the study, and have the option to withdraw at any time. Improvement in participant symptoms is possible but not guaranteed.

The study will aim to link data collected during the DELIVER Randomized Contolled Trial (RCT) to Real World Data (RWD) during the 10 year period following subject participation in the clinical trial. Only individuals who participated in the DELIVER clinical trial will be approached to participate in this research. The study team will need to collect some of the subject's personal health identifiers. A research team at Brigham and Women's Hospital, the coordinating center for the DELIVER Trial, will then use the subject's personal identifiers to obtain data from subjects' health insurance and/or hospital systems.
