The Patient Registry for Participation in Aging/Alzheimer's Research (PREPARE) is a database of individuals with Mild Cognitive Impairment who are interested in participating in research on aging/Alzheimer's disease and related dementias conducted at the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC). PREPARE will connect MUSC researchers with potential participants so they can provide information about studies for which they may be eligible. PREPARE will also collect survey data from people with Mild Cognitive Impairment and their study partners to better understand the impact of this condition on daily functioning.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate ABBV-400 in subjects with select solid tumors. This study will consist of
multiple cohorts with each cohort investigating ABBV-400 at 3 mg/kg Q3W.
The study will consist of a Screening, a Treatment, and a Follow-Up period.
All screening procedures must be performed within 28 days of first dose with the exception of tumor
tissue biopsy, which may occur during screening or any time after disease progression on the most
recent treatment. Subjects will continue treatment with ABBV-400 3 mg/kg Q3W until documented disease progression,
intolerable toxicity, or the subject meets other protocol criteria for discontinuation of treatment
(whichever occurs first). The maximum treatment duration will be 2 years.

This phase I trial will determine the maximum tolerated dose of lenalidomide when given in combination with high-dose systemic methotrexate and rituximab, with or without nivolumab, as induction treatment of primary central nervous system lymphoma. In addition, whether the combination of drugs can extend the control of CNS lymphoma by being used as maintenance (prolonged treatment) after control is achieved with the initial chemotherapy regimen (induction) will be judged. If decided to take part in the study, participants will complete pre-study testing, and if allowed to participate in study different people will get different doses of the study drug lenalidomide during induction chemotherapy. If the drug does not cause serious side effects, the next group of people in the study will get a higher dose, and the doses will continue to increase for every new group until people have serious side effects that require the dose to be lower. Lenalidomide will be taken by mouth on days 5 to 14 of each induction cycle. Once the dose of lenalidomide is found, the next group of people in the study will receive nivolumab in combination with the other drugs (methotrexate, rituximab, and lenalidomide). The first drug administered in each cycle is rituximab, which is given as an intravenous infusion typically in the infusion center. The day after rituximab, participants will be admitted to the hospital for the infusion of methotrexate. Enrolled participants that present benefit after induction will receive lenalidomide and nivolumab as prolonged therapy (maintenance) for an additional 12 months (12 cycles and each cycle is 28 days) or until the disease gets worse or the side effects become too severe. After treatment is completed the study doctor will continue to follow up on participants condition for 2 years to observe side effects. After 2 years the doctor will continue to follow up either in clinic or by phone for up to 5 years after registration. The most common side effects known are kidney damage, infusion reaction, blood clots, birth defects, immune toxicity, fever and infections, and there may be some risks that the study doctor is not aware of yet. Once the combination is proven safe, this study will allow for future studies to determine whether the combination of these four drugs can improve the response to treatment and help increase the understanding of their use in primary CNS lymphoma treatment. It is unclear whether these drugs will help participants live longer than the usual approach alone.

In the effort to find better treatments for moderate acne, which often relies on long-term antibiotic use, researchers are exploring alternative options. While isotretinoin, a vitamin A derivative, is highly effective for severe acne, its side effects limit its use for milder cases. A recent study from our institution investigated a new approach: weekly isotretinoin dosing. The results were promising, with acne improvement and no major side effects. This suggests that weekly isotretinoin could be a successful alternative for moderate acne in both males and females. To validate these findings, we propose a randomized controlled trial comparing weekly isotretinoin to daily doxycycline over four months. This study could confirm the safety and effectiveness of weekly isotretinoin, as well as shed light on patient satisfaction, and long-term results compared to standard antibiotics. This research may offer a breakthrough in treating moderate acne while addressing concerns about antibiotic overuse.

The InnAVasc Arteriovenous Graft is made from the same materials as standard care grafts, but with added medically safe materials that may make the graft easier to identify, safer to stick for dialysis, more durable, and less likely to bleed after your dialysis session when compared to standard care grafts. The InnAVasc Arteriovenous Graft is an investigational product, which means that this is not yet approved by government agencies like the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), but preliminary tests in the laboratory and in animals have proven safe enough to be allowed to be used in human clinical studies such as this.

At least 60 subjects will take part in this research at approximately 7 different medical facilities/hospitals in the United States. This will be the third time (3rd study) the InnAVasc Arteriovenous Graft will be used in human subjects.

This is a Phase 2 study measuring the effectiveness and safety of an antibody treatment called AK117 combined with a drug called azacitidine in patients with newly diagnosed higher-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (HR-MDS). AK117 is an "investigational" (not yet FDA approved) treatment, azacitidine is FDA approved. The primary purpose of the study is to find the best dose of AK117 for future trials. The study will enroll approximately 90 patients randomized in 3 groups (like flipping a coin), with each group receiving either AK117 in doses of 30mg/kg, 20mg/kg, or a placebo, in combination with azacitidine. The study includes a screening period, treatment period, and follow-up period over the course of 3 years. Patients will receive AK117 or a placebo every 2 weeks in combination with azacitidine every 4 weeks. 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 research study to find out if Qutenza 8% capsaicin topical system is safe and effective when treating subjects with lower back pain (LBP) that is caused by damage at or near the nerve's root in the lower back leg (lumbosacral radiculopathy) which is pain that can move all the way down the back of the leg. The pain may also start outside of the spinal cord, in the peripheral nerves and may also be felt all the way down the back of the leg (neuropathic LBP). Qutenza 8% capsaicin, the study drug, is currently FDA approved to treat nerve pain after a shingles outbreak in addition to a type of nerve pain in the feet associated with diabetes. In this study a maximum of four patches per visit (sized 14cm x 20 cm) will be used to deliver the Qutenza 8% capsaicin to your skin.

If a subject meets the qualifications for this study, in addition to their standard of care for their LBP, they will be treated with Qutenza 8% capsaicin topical system and can expect to have a total of 5 visits in a 12 month period. Each visit will require subjects to fill out several surveys and receive treatment patches for their LBP (your doctor will decide if you will need to be retreated at each visit based on your symptoms). This is an open-label study and all participants will receive Qutenza 8% capsaicin topical system. The study visits are estimated to take 90 minutes upwards to 120 minutes.

Early evidence suggests the benefits of post-stroke motor rehabilitation may be enhanced by applying electrical stimulation to the ear. This study aims to test the new approach of pairing ear stimulation with motor rehabilitation in the home setting in stroke survivors with upper limb motor function deficits.

The purpose of this study is to get feedback on an existing augmented reality (AR) software developed by researchers at Wayne State University (phase I) and then use the refined software, along with Prolonged Exposure (PE) therapy to treat Veterans and military personnel with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

AR involves wearing goggles through which you can see the real world, however virtual objects can be added to the environment (for example, like in the popular phone game Pokemon Go).

The technology was originally designed to help first responders, specifically police and firefighters, to overcome their avoidance of normal life situations caused by their trauma experience and PTSD. This includes a crowded party, a grocery store, a police roll call room and a fire station. This technology is now being expanded to include other common scenarios that military personnel and Veterans with PTSD may avoid.

This study will occur in 2 phases. Phase 1 will focus on getting feedback on the AR program from people who have completed PE therapy before to refine the technology. In phase 2, 40 Veterans and military personnel will be randomly selected to receive PTSD therapy + the refined AR technology or PE therapy alone.

This study is open to Veterans and active duty military personnel. All study activities will take place at the Ralph H. Johnson VA Health Care System and surrounding community-based outpatient clinics. This study is not open to civilians/non military personnel at this time.

The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of ONO-2808 in patients with Multiple System Atrophy with cerebellar variant (MSA-C)and Multiple System Atrophy with parkinsonian variant (MSA-P).MSA is a rare, rapidly progressing, fatal, adult-onset neurodegenerative disorder of the central and autonomic nervous systems that is characterized clinically by a variable combination of parkinsonism, cerebellar impairment, and autonomic and motor dysfunctions ONO-2808 is an investigational drug meaning that its safety, effects, and how it works are still being studied. This is a randomized (assigned by chance), placebo-controlled study, which means that some participants will receive a fake treatment (placebo) while others get the real treatment. The placebo treatment looks like the ONO-2808 medications but doesn't contain any active ingredient. The medication is in pill form and will be administered orally. This research is also double-blind, meaning that neither the participants nor the researcher will know which treatment they will be receiving. If participants choose to take part in the study they will be asked to attend up to 16 visits and the study will take up to 34 weeks. During the study, participants will be asked to go through a screening period (up to 6 weeks). The purpose of this screening period is to make sure study participants meet all the study criteria. If participants meet all study criteria, they may be asked to volunteer for the double-blind treatments. The duration of the double-blind treatment is 24 weeks which consists of 14 visits, some visits will be done at the study center/ hospital and the remaining visits will be done by a nurse from IQVIA's Research Nurse and Phlebotomy Solutions (RNPS) at participants' home. During visits, participants should anticipate tests including electrocardiograms (ECGs), vitals measurements (including temperature, blood pressure, and heart rate), and a physical/neurological examination. Some of the risks include nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, loss of appetite, dark urine, yellow eyes, and persistent fatigue.
