Summary

The goal of this study is to demonstrate that Photon Counting CT (PC-CT) creates similar or better-quality pictures of the body compared to CT systems we currently use in the clinic. The department of Radiology will be conducting this study using the new PC-CT system at MUSC for imaging of the head, neck, and blood vessels. Participants in this study will receive their normally ordered imaging scan as well as an additional imaging scan on the PC-CT machine. This second scan will take place within a month following the first normally ordered imaging study. This additional scan will be the only extra visit for this research study. Risks are the same as a typical CT scan which can include radiation dose, IV dye allergies, risks from IV, and potential loss of confidentiality.

Summary

Ritlecitinib (PF 06651600) is an investigational drug (referred to as "study drug" from here on) and is being developed as possible study treatment for participants with non segmental vitiligo (both active and stable vitiligo). The study drug will be compared with a placebo to find out if the study drug is better than the placebo for the study treatment of vitiligo. The duration of this study is a maximum of 60 weeks. There will be an initial screening period of 30 days where the study doctor will determine eligibility. If eligible, participants will be randomly assigned to receive the study drug or a placebo during a 52 week study treatment period. At the end of the treatment period, participants will enter a 4 week Follow Up Period.

Summary

The purpose of this research study is to determine if an already FDA approved drug called atorvastatin can help adults, age 75 or older, live well for longer by preventing dementia, disability, or heart disease. Participants will be assigned by chance to receive either atorvastatin (study drug) or a matching placebo (a tablet that looks like atorvastatin but does not contain any medicine). Study engagement may last up to five years and involves in clinic and/or remote visits, survey questions, potential blood draws, in addition to memory and physical tests. After the first 1-2 visits performed in clinic or remote, the study team will follow-up via phone on a yearly basis to see how participants are doing. Participants will be compensated for their time and participation in this research study.
