There may be at least 15,000 people who are part of this registry at any one time. The device has already been cleared or approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA"). The registry is not an experimental clinical study.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of acoramidis (AG-10) and determine if it can help people with the genetic TTR variant that can cause ATTR-CM. The sponsor (Eidos) is conducting a research study to see if the study medicine will help in slowing the development and/or progression of a rare disease called Symptomatic Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM). AG-10 is an investigational drug. "Investigational" means that AG-10 is not yet approved for use in any settings outside of clinical research studies like this one and is considered experimental. Cardiomyopathy is a disease of the heart muscle that makes it harder for the heart to pump blood to the rest of the body. AG-10 has been shown to reduce the level of TTR in the blood of animals and healthy volunteers tested to date. Reducing the amount of TTR in your blood may reduce the amount of amyloid deposits in your body and may keep your cardiomyopathy from getting worse over time.
If you meet the requirements and agree to participate in this study, you will go through a 2 part screening period and if approved you will begin treatment. You will be randomized, like flipping a coin, to drug or placebo and take two pills once every day for 60 months.
Your participation in this study will last up to 60 month and will consist of clinic visits and follow up visits at home via the telephone. Some tests requires of you will include an echo, ECG, cardioradionuclide scans (scans that use radioactive agents to look at images of the heart like a PET scan), MRIs, blood tests, nerve conduction test, urine samples, and skin biopsies.
This is a is a Phase 1, open-label, dose-escalation, and dose-expansion multicenter study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic (PK) profile, and clinical activity of SNDX-5613 in combination with intensive chemotherapy in participants with newly diagnosed Acute Myeloid Leukemias harboring alterations in KMT2A, NPM1, or NUP98 genes. The primary purpose of this study is to identify the maximum tolerated dose of SNDX-5613 (Revumenib) to be used in both a combination with intensive chemotherapy and alone. SNDX-5613 (Revumenib) is an "investigational" (not yet FDA approved) treatment. The study will enroll approximately 76 patients in 3 phases with each receiving cycles of chemotherapy followed by SNDX-5613 in the Induction and Consolidation phases followed by SNDX-5613 alone in the Maintenance Monotherapy phase if eligible. The study includes screening, treatment, safety follow-up, and survival follow-up periods over the course of 18 months. The main risk is that medical treatments often cause side effects. Patients may have none, some, or all of the effects listed or not listed in the protocol, and they may be mild, moderate, or severe. There is no direct benefit in participating in this study.
This is a prospective, longitudinal, multicenter, nonrandomized observational study to obtain research quality data across key outcome measures in people with Cystic Fibrosis who are ineligible and/or not taking a approved CFTR modulator and who are not receiving an investigational therapy.
Participants will be seen at study sites for research visits to include spirometry, patient reported outcomes (PROs), and blood collections on Day 0, Day 90 (3 months), Day 180 (6 months), and Day 360 (12 months). Participants will complete home spirometry as well during this period.
The research is being done to determine if an investigational drug called "TS23" is safe and effective for the treatment of patients with an ischemic stroke that do not meet the criteria for standard treatments to remove the clot. The best dose of TS23 for these patients is unknown. Prior studies have shown that TS23 works without increasing safety concerns.
Rates of heavy episodic drinking (HED) among military veterans are almost double that of the general population. Veterans also experience more serious negative health consequences of HED, including high-risk behaviors such as aggression. Research shows there is a link between HED and aggression. However, no programs exist to reduce alcohol-related aggression among veterans. The purpose of this study is to examine the feasibility and acceptability of adapting a current therapy - Managing Emotions to Reduce Aggression (MERA) - to include alcohol-focused Motivational Interviewing plus Feedback (MIF). We will use a brief, four session protocol that includes an hour of talk therapy, plus completion of surveys at each of the four sessions.
We are doing this study to learn more about how effective, safe and tolerable an experimental drug called balcinrenone is when used in combination with dapagliflozin for treating patients with heart failure and impaired kidney function and also to better understand the studied disease and associated health problems. Dapagliflozin is an approved drug to treat patients with heart failure, chronic kidney disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus.
This study is being conducted at approximately 150 research centers worldwide and is expected to enroll approximately 675 pediatric subjects in total with moderately to severely AD. This study will have 2 cohorts, a Randomized Cohort, and a Dupilumab-Inadequate Responder / Dupilumab Medically Inadvisable Cohort. The study comprises a 35-day Screening Period; a 16-week, open-label, efficacy assessor blinded study treatment period for the subjects in the randomized cohort; an open-label period up to Week 160 for subjects in the upadacitinib study treatment arms across both cohorts (Randomized Cohort and Dupi-IR/Dupilumab Medically Inadvisable Cohort); an open label period up to Week 52 for subjects in the dupilumab arm; and a 30-day Follow up Visit/call after the last dose is administered for upadacitinib or dupilumab.
Tobacco-free oral nicotine pouches (such as Zyn brand) are a less harmful alternative to combustible tobacco (cigarette/cigarillo/little cigar) smoking. Pouches, however, contain nicotine, and addictive substance that is not risk-free. The present study is evaluating how well nicotine pouches, at different nicotine levels, help people switch away from smoking combustible tobacco. People who smoke will be asked to answer questions about their tobacco product use and provide breath samples and cheek swab samples at an in-person visit to MUSC Charleston. Participants will then be provided with a 28-day supply of nicotine pouches, and will be asked to switch from smoking to pouches over the course of 4 weeks. Finally, participants will complete a final visit at MUSC, and will answer more questions about their tobacco use 1-month later.
This study if for patients with undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS) or a related poorly differentiated sarcoma that has spread from where it first started to other places in the body or it cannot be removed by surgery. This study compares the effect of pembrolizumab plus doxorubicin to doxorubicin alone in treating patients. Doxorubicin damages the cell's DNA and may kill tumor cells. Doxorubicin also blocks a certain enzyme needed for cell division and DNA repair. A monoclonal antibody is a type of protein that can bind to certain targets in the body, such as molecules that cause the body to make an immune response (antigens). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attach the cancer and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Adding pembrolizumab to the standard chemotherapy, doxorubicin, may help patients with UPS or a related poorly differentiated sarcoma live longer without having disease progression. The duration of the study will be about 12 years, with 6 months of active treatment for those receiving doxorubicin alone and 2 years active treatment for those receiving doxorubicin and pembrolizumab. Each participant will be in follow up for 10 years. Some of the main side effects are nausea, vomiting, low blood count, fatigue and mild diarrhea.
