Summary

This phase II Expanded Lung-MAP treatment trial tests tepotinib with or without ramucirumab for the treatment of patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (stage IV) or that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). Tepotinib is used in patients whose cancer has a mutated (changed) form of a gene called MET. It is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of the abnormal MET protein that signals tumor cells to multiply. This helps slow or stop the spread of tumor cells. Ramucirumab is a monoclonal antibody that may prevent the growth of new blood vessels that tumors need to grow. Giving tepotinib with ramucirumab may lower the chance of the cancer from growing or spreading in patients with stage IV or recurrent non-small cell lung cancer.

List of Studies


Keywords
Heart, Surgery
Summary

This study is enrolling subjects who are referred for a ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation. VT is an abnormal heart rhythm that comes from the lower chambers of the heart. An ablation is a procedure to treat abnormal heart rhythms by identifying where the abnormal heart rhythm is starting and then scarring the tissue as a way to stop them. In this study the scars are being made by freezing the tissue. This is called cryoablation. This study will use the Adagio VT Cryoablation System (vCLAS™ Catheter and Console) to perform the cryoablation. This system is considered investigational meaning it has not been approved for use outside of this study by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Study participation will last about one year and include the following visits: screening/baseline, procedure, pre discharge, 1, 3, 6 and 12 months. There will also be a telephone call at day 7 post ablation procedure. The study will also collect data including medical history and medications, physical exam findings, data from the procedure, echocardiogram (ultrasound test of the heart, electrocardiogram or ECG (test that captures the electrical activity of the heart) and cardiac MRI. The primary study risks are those related to the ablation procedure including pain, abnormal heart rhythms, low or high blood pressure, and blood vessel or heart muscle damage. There is potential benefit as the procedure may eliminate the abnormal heart rhythm and the information gained may help others with this condition in the future.

Summary

Multiple Myeloma (MM) is a cancer of the blood's plasma cells ( blood cell). The cancer is typically found in the bones and bone marrow (the spongy tissue inside of the bones) and can cause bone pain, fractures, infections, weaker bones, and kidney failure. Treatments are available, but MM can come back (relapsed) or may not get better (refractory) with treatment. This is a study to determine adverse events and change in disease symptoms of ABBV-383 in adult participants with relapsed/refractory (R/R) MM. ABBV-383 is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of R/R Multiple Myeloma (MM). This study is broken into 2 Arms; Arm A (Parts 1 and 2) and Arm B. Arm A includes 2 parts: step-up dose optimization (Part 1) and dose expansion (Part 2). In Part 1, different level of step-up doses are tested followed by the target dose of ABBV-383. In Part 2, the step-up dose identified in Part 1 (Dose A) will be used followed by the target dose A of ABBV-383. In Arm B a flat dose of ABBV-383 will be tested. Around 120 adult participants with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma will be enrolled at approximately 30 sites across the world. Participants will receive ABBV-383 as an infusion into the vein in 28 day cycles for approximately 3 years. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and questionnaires.

Summary

This study is designed to learn more about the effects of Petosemtamab, an investigational drug not FDA approved, compared to standard of care treatment for people with head and neck cancer that has been previously treated with immunotherapy and chemotherapy. If decided to take part in this study, participants will go through a screening period, treatment period, and follow-up period. During the screening period following signing of consent form participants will be evaluated for screening criteria and determined if they qualify for the study. During treatment period participants will be randomly assigned to either receiving petosemtamab or one of the three standard of care choices. In the follow up period the side effects after completion of petosemtamab administration or assigned standard of care treatment will be evaluated. Also, approximately every 12 weeks after study treatment stopped, either petosemtamab or assigned standard of care, participants will receive a phone call for long term follow-up for up to 1.5 years. Participation in this study may last up to two years. The participants will complete questionnaires to evaluate the differences in the quality of life for participants that received petosemtamab versus standard of care treatment. Some serious risk related to this study are infusion related reactions, rash and diarrhea. There may not a benefit from joining the study. The head and neck cancer may improve while on this study but it may not, and it may even get worse. It will also help inform how well Petosemtamab works at curing this type of cancer. The study results may be used to help others in the future.

Summary

Alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT) deficiency is a condition in which the body does not make enough of AAT, a protein that protects the lungs and liver from damage. This condition is inherited, meaning you get the faulty gene from one or both of your parents.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of oral administration of BMN 349 in adult participants with the PiZZ genotype (also defined as having a severe deficiency or AAT ≤ 60mg/dL) or PiMZ genotype with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH). Participants will receive an oral single dose of BMN 349 (250 mg), a medication designed to assist Z-alpha-1 antitrypsin to get out of the liver cell. The study drug BMN 349 has not been approved by the Federal Drug Administration (FDA).

This is a phase 1 study in which participants will get a single pill dose of drug or placebo to measure the amount of alpha-1 that gets out of the liver cells and into the bloodstream. Study details include:
• Study duration: up to 78 days
• Treatment duration: 1 day (single dose).
• Observations: The study will collect data on medical history, physical examination, vital signs, electrocardiogram readings, clinical laboratory parameters, pulmonary function tests, and drug distribution.
• Visit frequency: The Screening Visit, dosing, and post dosing evaluations will be conducted at MUSC on 3 consecutive days. Visits at days 8 and 36 days will occur at study site. Other procedures/assessments may be performed at the study site or at home by a healthcare professional and/or by telemedicine.

Researcher
Thomas Todoran

List of Studies


Keywords
Heart, Hypertension/ High Blood Pressure
Summary

This study involves a procedure called renal denervation with an investigational device called the TIVUS™ system for the treatment of resistant hypertension (high blood pressure). Investigational means it is not yet approved for commercial use by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Renal denervation is a procedure done by introducing a catheter (long tube) into the large blood vessel in your groin (top of leg) and guiding it to your renal arteries, which are the blood vessels that go to your kidneys. The catheter will be placed in the renal arteries and ultrasound energy will be delivered to the renal arteries.
This study is randomized, meaning you will be assigned to one of two groups, by chance, like drawing straws. Two out of three participants will be randomized to renal denervation while one out of three will be randomized to sham. Sham means you will go through all the steps of the procedure but will not receive the treatment. Those participants randomized to sham will have the option to crossover and have the procedure after the 6 month follow up.
This study will involve at least 12 visits over the course of 36 months. Study related procedures include CT scan, ultrasound test of your heart and kidneys, blood work, urine studies, physical exams, questionnaire, and keeping home blood pressure diaries.
Study related risks include risks related to the procedure including pain, bleeding, damage to the blood vessels, risks related to the study related testing such as radiation risks, blood draw risks and loss of confidentiality. There may be benefit to you as well as others in the future with high blood pressure.
