Individuals with obesity and a history of heart or kidney-related disease will be eligible for participation. Study participants will have a 50:50 chance to be randomly assigned to either the treatment (retatrutide) or control (placebo) group. Retatrutide is currently considered an investigational medication as it has not been approved by the FDA for the treatment of obesity or any other medical condition at this time. Study participation will last approximately 5 years and begin with a screening period to ensure correct patient selection. Research clinic visits will occur every 4 weeks initially and then every 12 weeks. Some visits may be completed virtually through telehealth or by phone. Study procedures include but are not limited to: blood draws, questionnaires, self injection of study medication, medical history review, vital signs, and electrocardiogram. The medication will be injected subcutaneously once a week. The medication's purpose is to facilitate weight loss and decrease a subject's risk for heart or kidney related disease progression or events.

Study LTI-401 is an open-label, multicenter study which will evaluate the safety and tolerability of LIQ861, the study drug, in subjects who have World Health Organization (WHO) Group 1 & 3 Pulmonary Hypertension. The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of LIQ861 in patients with WHO Group 3 Pulmonary Hypertension associated with interstitial lung disease (PH-ILD). The investigational form of Treprostinil in this study is called LIQ861, it is delivered to your lungs using a hand-held device called a dry powder inhaler (DPI). Dose levels may be adjusted by the Study Doctor between 26.5 micrograms to 318 micrograms based on your PH-ILD symptoms. The study will include approximately 60 subjects and participation will last 52 weeks.

The purpose of this medical research study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a new medication called imatinib mesylate in the treatment of Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM). LAM is a rare disease in which abnormal cells (called LAM cells) grow out of control. Over time, LAM cells destroy healthy lung tissue and cause respiratory disease or failure.

Many patients with LAM are currently treated with a medication called sirolimus (rapamycin). Sirolimus slows the growth of LAM cells.

Imatinib mesylate (hereafter called imatinib) is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of some cancers that share common pathways with LAM cells. Laboratory studies suggest that imatinib could completely block the growth of LAM cells through initiation of targeted cell death.

An important purpose of this research is to determine the safety of imatinib in people with LAM. This study will also evaluate the short-term effectiveness of imatinib. Participants will be randomized to receiving imatinib (study medication) or placebo (no treatment) for the 180 day duration of participation. The study is being conducted at the Medical University of South Carolina and at Columbia University in New York (CUMC). Each site will enroll 10 participants.

As people get older, understanding speech in a noisy environment can become more difficult. The MUSC Hearing Research Program is seeking healthy adults between 25 and 89 years of age to participate in a research study to investigate the connection between listening difficulties and the brain. Payment is provided for participation and scheduling is flexible. The study involves two visits. Participants must be able to complete an MRI. Please contact us if you would like to participate in this research or learn more about our study.

The aim of this study is to use magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to capture images of participants' brains and apply an image processing method called INSCAPE to assess brain states. This study will recruit participants who are scheduled to receive accelerated Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) therapy for Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). Participation in this study involves two visits, each including a 30-minute MRI scan. The interval between each visit is about one week. Depressed participants will also complete mood assessments at various intervals while they are receiving accelerated TMS for depression.

This study is for patient that have been diagnosed with High Risk Neuroblastoma. The investigational drug in this study is naxitamab. The purpose of this study is to test the safety of adding an Anti-GD2 Immunotherapy agent (naxitamab) to your standard therapy during the induction phase of care. Read the sections on risks and benefits carefully and be sure you understand them. This study will also look at the effectiveness of this treatment.

This study is for subjects that have been diagnosed with Follicular Lymphoma.
This study is testing an investigational drug(s) called Epcoritamab that is not approved by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration). The purpose of this study is to see if the combination of the study drug epcoritamab with rituximab and lenalidomide has a better response rate than standard of care chemoimmunotherapy in the treatment of follicular lymphoma. The total study treatment duration is up to 2.5 years. You may stop the study treatment early if you do not respond after 6 months, your disease worsens, you no longer tolerate the study drug(s), or you withdraw from the study.

Once you finish the study treatment or discontinued study treatment early, you will continue to the Post-Study Treatment Follow Up Period, you will come back to the study clinic every 6 months for the first 3 years and then yearly to have imaging scans and blood work to check if your disease is in remission or worsen.

If your disease worsens or if you start a new FL treatment, you will enter the Long-term Follow Up Period, you will be called by telephone or your health record will be reviewed to check on your well-being and to see what your next treatment plan will be. This follow-up may last up to 15 years.

This study is evaluating the safety and effectiveness of the experimental treatment named AB-1002. The purpose of this study is to look at the safety and feasibility of delivery of adeno-associated virus (AAV) through the coronary arteries into the heart in participants with heart failure and non-ischemic cardiomyopathy. An experimental treatment is another option for care for your disease that is still being tested and is not yet approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

Participation in this study is expected to last one year and include up to 18 visits. Study related procedures include the following heart related testing: study drug infusion, electrocardiograms (ECG), a test to show the heart's electrical activity, echocardiogram (Echo), a test that uses ultrasound to capture moving images of the heart, cardiopulmonary stress test, sample collection including blood, urine, tissue, nasal mucus, saliva, semen, and stool, questionnaires, physical exams, and at least an overnight stay in the hospital. You will also need to take medications to suppress your immune system.

There are risks associated with this study. Risks associated with gene therapy include an immune response that may cause inflammation in the liver, heart or other organs. It may damage your red blood cells, cause a low platelet count or cause the formation of small blood clots. There are also risks related to the study procedures including bleeding associated with the heart biopsy, risks related to drawing blood, risks of radiation, and loss of confidentiality. There may be no benefit to you but knowledge gained from this study may benefit others with heart failure and non-ischemic cardiomyopathy in the future.

The purpose of this research study is to see how effective the use of copper Cu 64 PSMA I&T Injection is in imaging prostate cancer tumors for staging of men with newly diagnosed intermediate or high risk prostate cancer who are planned to have radical prostatectomy with pelvic lymph node dissection. Three hundred twenty-three (323) patients are planned for enrollment in this Phase 3 study, at approximately 60 sites in the U.S. and Europe. Copper Cu 64 PSMA I&T Injection is an investigational imaging agent, given to you via IV injection, that may make tumors from prostate cancer show up better during a nuclear medicine imaging scan. The imaging scan is a type of nuclear medicine imaging test, which means it uses a radioactive drug and a special camera to create pictures of your tumor(s). Copper Cu 64 PSMA I&T Injection is investigational in the United States which means that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not yet approved it.

You are invited to volunteer in this clinical research study because you have been diagnosed with tricuspid valve regurgitation.

The type of research study you are being asked to join is called an Early Feasibility Study. This means the device and procedure you are receiving (the treatment) have not been previously studied in humans, and that you will be among the first patients in the world to undergo this treatment. The Device you are receiving is not approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration and its safety and effectiveness are unknown.

Participants will undergo right heart catheterizations, computed tomography (CT) scans without iodinated contrast, multiple ultrasounds of the heart, labs, and other assessments. The length of subject participation in the study is 5 years and includes 11 research visits. You will have a screening right heart catheterization (RHC) to check the pressures and function of your heart. The research procedure and placement of the TRIcares Topaz Transfemoral Tricuspid heart Valve (Topaz Tricuspid Valve) will be placed in a hybrid operating room. This procedure is done by entering a vein in your groin known as the femoral vein. The purpose of this device is to eliminate the regurgitation or leaking in the tricuspid valve of the heart to help reduce the symptoms caused by this leaky valve.

The most common risks associated with the research procedure are those related to the right heart catheterization (RHC) and Topaz Tricuspid valve procedure. Major risks include bleeding and damage to the heart or surrounding blood vessels. There are no known benefits of the research device. There may be possible benefits from the research procedure including improvement in quality of life or a decrease in the symptoms caused by tricuspid regurgitation. The information that we obtain from your participation in this study will help us learn more about how safe and effective this approach is in treating the symptoms of individuals similar to yourself.
