This is a non-invasive, observational study aiming to collect data on the impact chest tubes have on inpatients during their hospitalizations. Sleep and activity patterns, as well as select vital signs will be tracked using an MUSC-owned Apple Watch, which subjects will wear, and an MUSC-owned iPhone, for up to seven days during admission to the hospital. Each day, a study coordinator will visit subjects to collect a brief sleep survey. Participation may last up to 7 days while subjects are admitted and have a chest tube in place. Upon completion of the study, a study coordinator will collect the Apple Watch and iPhone for data analysis.

This pilot data will provide initial information on the feasibility of collecting and performing a larger study on the inpatient mobility, activity, and sleep.

This phase III study evaluates whether cemiplimab can shrink or prevent the return of cancer when combined with the usual approach for skin cancer more effectively than the usual approach alone. This study will enroll adults diagnosed with stage III/IV cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma. If eligible to participate in this study participants will be randomly assigned to 1 of 2 groups. Group 1 will receive the usual surgery used to treat this type of cancer. After surgery, they may get the usual type of radiation, depending on the results from the tumor tissue removed during surgery. Group 2 will receive cemiplimab before surgery every 3 weeks for up to 12 weeks. They may also receive radiation after surgery depending on the tumor tissue results from surgery. If treated with cemiplimab before surgery, then tumor tissue results will also determine whether or not they receive cemiplimab every 6 weeks for up to 24 weeks, after surgery, and radiation if given. Participants will be asked to complete quality of life questionnaires to understand how they are feeling during treatment and the effects of the treatment. Participants will be checked for sides effects 3 to 4 months for 2 years after treatment. After that, every 6 months for 1 year and then annually. The main risks are tiredness, diarrhea or constipation, nausea, rash or itching, change in thyroid function, and risk of progression of the cancer to require earlier surgery or to become inoperable. Alternatives to this treatment is standard of care surgery and radiation. The study benefit is cemiplimab may help in shrinking or stabilizing this type of skin cancer.

The purpose of this study is to compare the usual treatment alone to the usual treatment plus nivolumab. This study seeks to find if this approach is better or worse than standard of care for colon cancer. Treatment and follow up for this study may be up to 3 years. The procedures include CT or MRI scans and chemotherapy. Risks include diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, hair loss, anemia, sores in mouth, and muscle weakness. You may or may not receive a direct benefit from participating in this trial, however, information learned from the trial may help other people in the future.

This study is for patients that have been diagnosed with ovarian cancer who are taking bevacizumab. This study is testing two investigational drugs called nelfinavir and hydroxychloroquine. "Investigational" means it has not been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of cancer. The primary purpose of this study is to see if these two medications in combination with bevacizumab are safe and effective in ovarian cancer. These drugs will be given by mouth. Participants in this study can expect to be in this study for 6 months for data collection, but may continue on the study medications longer if seeing benefit.

This study is enrolling subjects who are undergoing a planned radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) to treat ventricular tachycardia (VT). VT is a type of irregular heart rhythm originating from the lower chambers of the heart and is commonly treated with RFCA. During a catheter ablation procedure, flexible tubes are guided through blood vessels in your heart where the location of the source of your abnormal arrhythmia is identified. One of the flexible catheters, called an ablation catheter, is then used to deliver energy from its tip to burn the areas of abnormal tissue within the scar which may be causing the ventricular tachycardias. The ablation procedure utilized in this study will be guided by an Ablation Index; a formula developed to assist physicians performing ablation procedures to guide the duration of applications of radiofrequency energy delivery. Participants will be randomized into the control group, where the study doctor will utilize traditional, non-AI guided ablation, or the intervention group, where the study doctor will utilize AI-guided ablation.

This study will last up to 1 year post-ablation procedure for participants and will include up to 4 visits (ablation procedure and 3 follow-up standard of care follow-up visits). Study procedures include the initial, planned ablation procedure, and collection of medical history and images.

Hearing loss is common, but many people don't realize they have it until years after it begins. This study will explore whether everyday speech and conversation can reveal early signs of hearing loss. In one part of the study, we will record conversations between participants and healthcare professionals to study how speech patterns may differ in people with and without hearing loss. In another part, we will review transcripts from past clinic visits to see if certain patterns, like pauses or asking for things to be repeated, are linked to hearing problems. The goal is to develop tools that can help identify hearing loss earlier and more easily, using conversations that happen naturally during clinic visits.

The TEAM-HF trial aims to find out whether measuring pressure in the heart and lungs using an implantable device called a CardioMEMS can help identify heart failure patients who are getting worse and may benefit from earlier treatment with a heart pump called an LVAD. It also seeks to determine if patients with advanced heart failure, who are not on IV medications for their heart failure but still have high pressures in their heart and lungs can improve with LVAD therapy.

This study is for patients with resectable oligometastatic pulmonary osteosarcoma. The purpose of this phase three study is to determine if open surgical resection is superior to thoracoscopic resection for thoracic event-free survival (tEFS) in patients with resectable oligometastatic pulmonary osteosarcoma. The risks from this study are the usual risk of surgery such as bleeding, infection, injury to chest area, and pain after surgery. There is also the risk that additional surgery may be required to remove all cancer from the patient's lung. People in this clinical trial will receive surgery as the study therapy. The length of time surgery lasts can vary. After treatment, the patient will have follow-up examinations and medical tests.

The purpose of this study is to learn more about late-onset epilepsy of unknown etiology (LOEU), which is defined as an onset of seizure activity in late life (age 55 or above) without a clear neurological cause. That is, many older adults will experience seizures due to neurological conditions such as stroke, brain injury, tumor, or infection. However, other individuals will also develop seizures with no identified cause.

Participation entails a single study visit lasting 2-3 hours including a blood draw, completion of standardized cognitive testing, and several questionnaires. The goals of the study include to examine blood markers that can help us to better understand the condition including dementia risk, and how these markers may impact the clinical presentation of the condition. No interventions/treatments are included with this study.

The purpose of this study is to determine if we lower the chance of your prostate cancer growing or spreading by adding the drug relugolix to the usual radiation therapy? This study seeks to find if this approach is better or worse than standard of care for prostate cancer.

Treatment and follow up for this study may be up to 5 years. The procedures include blood samples, PET scans, hormone therapy and radiation therapy. Risks include diarrhea, back pain, weight gain, and headache. You may or may not receive a direct benefit from participating in this trial, however, information learned from the trial may help other people in the future.
