This is a study comparing the new class anticoagulants factor XIa to the FDA approved Apixaban. The study is to determine if Milvexian is as effective and safe with preventing clots for patients with A-fib and to determine if Milvexian is better at reducing the chances of bleeding.

This is an international, Phase IIb/III multi-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomised trial assessing the efficacy and safety of spesolimab versus placebo in patients with moderate to severe HS. Approximately 200 trial participants in Part 1 (Phase IIb) and 260 trial participants in Part 2 (Phase III) will be randomised. For Part 1, after signing the informed consent, trial participants will enter the screening period for up to 28 days, and if all eligibility criteria are met, trial participants will be randomised in a 1:1:1:1 ratio to either active group, including high dose, medium dose, and low dose group, or placebo group. Once randomised, trial participants will start a treatment period of 50 weeks. Administration of treatment will be up to Week 48.
Pimavanserin is an antipsychotic may have some beneficial effects on core autism symptoms and co-morbid conditions such as irritability, anxiety, sleep disorders, mood instability due to epilepsy, etc.). These potential benefits stem from pimavanserin's impact on the serotonin system in the body. This study will investigate pimavanserin in the treatment of irritability, core autism symptoms, and co-morbid conditions in children ages 6-17 years old.
The Southeastern Consortium for Lung Cancer Health Equity (SC3), led by Dr. Robert A. Winn, assembles an outstanding interdisciplinary team of translational researchers positioned in the heart of the historical and current tobacco-producing region within the southeast. Collectively, SC3's investigative team has unparalleled experience in lung cancer screening, translational research in lung cancer health disparities, community outreach and engagement, and recruiting and retaining racial and ethnic minorities and individuals from other medically underserved groups using evidence-based strategies. As NCI-designated cancer centers, all three centers report high enrollment of underserved minorities onto interventional trials and are committed to reducing the substantial disparities found in lung cancer outcomes in their collective Black/African American and rural communities.
The purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate safety and efficacy of a novel treatment, low intensity focused ultrasound pulsation (LIFUP) for treatment resistant depression (TRD). The initial visit will involve consent and an MRI scan, followed by two more treatment visits over the course of one week. During the first treatment day, participants will receive either focused ultrasound or sham stimulation. On the second treatment day, all participants will receive focused ultrasound. Response and potential side effects will be monitored pre- and post- each treatment along with one week and one month follow-up assessments. Follow-up assessments will also involve an MRI scan.
This is a Phase 3, placebo-controlled, randomized, double-blind research study evaluating the efficacy, safety, and PK of baricitinib in children from 6 years to less than 18 years of age with severe alopecia areata. The study is divided into 4 periods: a 5-week screening period, a 36-week double-blind treatment period, an approximately 2-year long-term extension period, and a 4-week posttreatment follow-up period. If the subject meets all eligibility criteria they will be randomized to receive either baricitinib high dose, baricitinib low dose, or placebo for 36 weeks. Participants will then be transitioned into the long-term extension treatment period. Subjects will attend 18 clinic visits for up to 145 weeks.
This study is for patients with obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (oHCM). oHCM is a condition where the heart muscle becomes abnormally thickened, which can sometimes block the blood flow out of the heart and results in the heart muscle working harder to pump blood to the body.
The study is done to compare the side effects and effectiveness of an investigational (not yet approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA)) medication with the beta-blocker metoprolol succinate in participants with oHCM. The study medication is known as Aficamten and is a tablet taken by mouth. This is a randomized study (participants will be assigned by chance to the study medication Aficamten and placebo or metoprolol succinate and placebo). A placebo looks just like the study medication but has no active ingredient in it. The medications will be administered in the form of a pill. This study will take about 9 months and include about 11 visits to the study site. Study related procedures include blood work, echocardiograms (ultrasound test of the heart), electrocardiogram (recording of heart's electrical activity), exercise testing, physical exams, questionnaires and optional genetic testing. Risks associated with this study include shortness of breath, nausea, diarrhea, headaches and dizziness.
The study is for patients who have been diagnosed with non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The investigational drug in this study is ivonescimab (AK112). The study drug is an antibody, it blocks two proteins in the body that help cancer cells live, grow and spread. The study drug will be given in addition to pemetrexed and carboplatin. There are two groups that a participant may be assigned to, which group a subject is assigned on will be determined by type of cancer treatments that they have previously received. Treatment Group A will receive the study drug along with pemetrexed and carboplatin. Treatment Group B will receive placebo along with pemetrexed and carboplatin. The drugs will be given via an infusion. There is a 50% chance of being assigned to either group. Participation in the study will last about 36 months. The study consist of a screening visit, treatment visits, and a safety follow up visit.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy of the oral FXIa inhibitor asundexian in prevention of ischemic stroke and its safety (bleeding) compared with placebo on top of background antiplatelet therapy in adult participants after an acute non-cardioembolic ischemic stroke or high-risk TIA.
