The purpose of this research study is to study if the investigational drug, MK-6194, is safe and effective to treat adults with non-segmental vitiligo. In this study, MK-6194 or placebo administration will occur every two weeks or every four weeks to evaluate how well MK-6194 may treat non-segmental vitiligo. This study can last up to 60 weeks, including up to 4 weeks for screening, up to 52 weeks for treatment, and 14 days for safety follow-up. Eligible participants will be randomized 1:1:1 to receive MK-6194 every two weeks, every four weeks, or receive placebo.

This is a Phase 2, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study of KER-012 (study drug) compared to Placebo in adult participants with a primary diagnosis of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) on stable background PAH therapy. About 90 participants, in approximately 60 study centers worldwide, will take part in this study. Participation in this study may last up to 2 years and the study has a Screening period, Treatment period, Extension period, and Follow-up period.

The goal of this study is to help compare scans from the new photon counting CT scanner of a solid lung tumor with traditional lab and biopsy results. Subjects enrolled in this study will receive their normal CT scan on the new photon counting CT scanner that has the capacity to provide pictures that are better quality. These images will provide useful information that may lead to future improvements for patients with similar conditions.

This study will evaluate possible new treatments for advanced stage head and neck cancer. Patients who have undergone surgery to remove their tumor may qualify if the tissue is positive for a specific type of squamous cell cancer. The purpose of this study is to compare the current standard treatment, radiation therapy along with chemotherapy with a drug called cisplatin, to two other treatments. One experimental treatment is radiation therapy along with two chemotherapy agents, docetaxel and cetuximab, and the other experimental treatment is the standard treatment currently used along with the addition of an immunotherapy drug atezolizumab. Patients who qualify for participation will be randomly assigned to one of the 3 treatment groups (done with a computerized system). In the current standard treatment group, participants will receive radiation therapy 5 days per week for 6 weeks, and cisplatin once a week through a vein for the 6-week treatment period. The group receiving doxetaxel and cetuximab (both FDA approved medications for the treatment of certain cancers) will receive the same 6 weeks of radiation along with cetuximab through a vein 1 week prior to the start of radiation therapy, and then once a week for the 6 weeks of radiation and the doxetaxel will also be given through a vein once a week for the 6 weeks of radiation therapy. The final group will get the current standard treatment with 6 weeks of radiation and 6 weeks of cisplatin, along with atezolizumab through a vein 1 week prior to your starting radiation and then every 3 weeks for a total of 8 doses, There will be twice as many patients in this last group than the other two groups.

Follow-up will be at Month 1 & 3 and then every 3 months for 2 years, and then every 6 months for 3 more years, and then annually for as long as a participant is willing and able. There will be blood tests and CT scans that will occur throughout the study, however they are standard for the type of cancer being treated and how each individual responds to the treatment. The benefit of participation is there may be improved outcomes in this group of patients however the risks involved with receiving new treatments may be more than with the usual standard treatment. Some of the most common side effects that the study doctors know about are infection, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, pain, tiredness, kidney problems, numbness/tingling in hands and feet. There may be some risks that the study doctors are not aware of at the moment. There will be a total of up to 480 participants across all sites and approximately 24 participants at MUSC.

This study is for patients who have heart failure with pulmonary hypertension. Heart failure means that the heart cannot pump blood as well as normal. Pulmonary hypertension happens when the pressure in the blood vessels leading from the heart to the lungs is too high, blood flowing through the lungs is limited, and the pressure in the lungs increases when you are physically active, causing symptoms of shortness of breath and tiredness.

The study uses the Gradient device to see if can help treat heart failure with pulmonary hypertension. This device and therapy is still investigational, which means it is currently not approved by a regulatory agency (such as U.S Food and Drug Administration) for regular hospital use and it includes only individuals who choose to take part. Risks in this study include those for standard cardiac catheterization techniques and the administration of anesthesia including allergic reactions, low blood pressure, skin rash, or difficulty breathing; however, all of the risks may not be known. The study will last approximately 3 years and includes the following visits: Baseline/Screening, Procedure, Discharge, 1 month, 6 months and visits annually for 3 years. Study related procedures include a physical exam, blood testing, 6 minute walk test, echocardiogram, CT scan and a Right heart catheterization.

This study is for participants who have tricuspid regurgitation, a condition in which your heart's tricuspid valve does not close tightly which causes blood to flow backwards in the incorrect direction. This condition increases the workload on the heart and if left untreated, it can increase the risk of worsening heart failure. In this study, a device called the VDyne Transcatheter Tricuspid Replacement System will be used to treat the tricuspid regurgitation. The VDyne Transcatheter Tricsupid Replacement System is an investigational device meaning it has not been approved for commercial use by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). In this study all eligible participants will be treated with the device.

Participation in this study will last about 5 years and involve up to 13 visits. Study related procedures include a right heart catheterization (test to measure the pressures in the heart), echocardiograms (ultrasound test of heart), electrocardiogram or ECG (test of the heart's electrical system) blood work, questionnaires, hall walk test, and physical exam.

There are risks associated with this study including potential risks with the device, implant procedure and study related procedures. There is also the risk of loss of confidentiality. The study may or may not benefit you but the information learned may benefit others with this condition in the future.

This is a cross-sectional survey in persons with HIV infection to evaluate experiences of historical oral therapy use and how their perceptions on treatment may have changed with the availability of injectable long-acting therapy. In
addition to surveys, a corresponding retrospective medical chart review will be conducted for each participant.

This study is for patients who have been diagnosed with a solid tumor cancer that has continued to grow despite treatments patients have already received (non-small cell lung cancer or urothelial cancer). The study drug is FF-10832 (gemcitabine liposome injection). Gemcitabine is a cancer treatment registered in the US for the treatment of ovarian, breast, non-small cell lung, and pancreatic carcinomas. The study drug is a new, liposomal formulation of Gemcitabine. This new formula was developed to increase the amount of gemcitabine that goes to tumor cells. The study drug will be given to patients by itself, or in combination with pembrolizumab. Pembrolizumab is an approved treatment for many types of cancer. There are two groups that a participant may be assigned to, which group a participant is assigned on will be determined randomly, in a 1:1 ratio, like flipping a coin. The drugs will be given via an infusion. There is a 50% chance of being assigned to either group. Participation in the study will likely last 12 months, but participants may stay on the study longer if the study treatment continues to benefit them. The study consists of a screening visit, treatment visits, end of study visit, and a long-term follow-up.

This open-label research study will evaluate two investigational therapies, TransCon TLR7/8 Agonist and TransCon IL-2 β/γ, which are not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Pembrolizumab, an FDA approved medication, also a study drug on this trial is given as standard of care for this type of cancer. This study begins with two study treatment groups, Groups A:TransCon TLR7/8 Agonist injected directed into the tumor once every 21 days and Group B: TransCon IL-2 β/γ which is given through a IV over 30 minutes once every 21 days. The surgery may occur after Cycle 2 of the medications at a scheduled time that the study doctor feels appropriate. Once 12 participants have completed study treatment, 6 in each group (A and B), an analysis will determine the continuation of the study. If it passes the criteria, the study will continue, and another study treatment group, Group C: Pembrolizumad alone given through an IV over 30 minutes once every 21 days, will open. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the three groups. At the present time, limited information is available on the adverse side effects potentially related to TransCon IL-2 β/γ and TransCon TLR7/8. Very common side effects observed with TransCon IL-2 β/γ include changes with your immune system being stimulated, blood pressure, and heartbeat. Also flu-like symptoms (nausea, fever, and chills), changes in lung/liver/kidney function, and brain related symptoms including dizziness, weakness, confusion, difficulty speaking, and/or decreased brain function, which may become life-threatening. TransCon TLR7/8 Agonist requires more data collection to determine the extent of side effects in humans. At this time, there are no proven benefits in humans however, the animal studies have shown promising results. The national accrual goal for this study is 92 participants and MUSC projects to accrual approximately 5 participants per year over a span of 2 years.

A clinical research study is an investigation in humans of a potential medical treatment that is designed to discover or verify whether it works and is safe. This study will test an investigational drug called DF9001. "Investigational" means that it has not been approved by any health authority such as the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) or the European Medicines Agency (EMA). Information gathered from this study will be sent to the various health authorities.
The study has two parts: a Dose Escalation part and an Efficacy Expansion part. The main purpose of the Efficacy Expansion part of this study is to test whether the study drug (DF9001) works (if it causes cancer to shrink or disappear). The Dose Escalation part of this study's main purpose is to test different doses of the study drug by itself, and also in combination with a drug called nivolumab, an FDA approved drug. Some foreseeable risks associated with DF9001 include Diarrhea,
Skin problems, Nail changes, Eye problems, Inflammation of the lungs, intestines and liver, as well as unforeseen side effects that may occur. There is no direct benefit in participating in this study.
