This clinical investigation is a prospective, non-randomized, single-arm, multi-center early feasibility study of the Aria CV Pulmonary Hypertension (PH) System implanted in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). The device will be implanted in the pulmonary artery and the gas reservoir of the device will be in the abdominal cavity. The purpose of this study is to validate that the clinical use of the Aria CV PH System is safe for the patient, and to evaluate its performance in treating patients with PAH. Some procedures involved in the study include but not limited too: Questionnaires, physical exams, right heart catherization, echocardiograms, blood work and more. The study will be conducted in a maximum of 10 centers in the United States. Up to 45 patients will be consented, and up to 15 patients will receive implants. There is a total of 11 visits over the course of 2.5 years for the study. Because this is an investigational device under the FDA, there may be risk that include but are not limited to: arrhythmia, device infection, endocarditis, and heart failure. If the Aria CV device performs as intended, you may potentially benefit from reduction in or relief of symptoms caused by PH, and depending on your overall health conditions, prolonged life expectancy and/or improvement in your overall quality of life.

Patients who previously had been treated with either intravenous ganciclovir or oral
valganciclovir as an infant or toddler, either as part of a previous Collaborative Antiviral Study Group (CASG) study or through routine clinical care at a current or former CASG study site, will be offered enrollment on this retrospective follow-up study.

The purpose of this registry study is to gather more information to answer research questions about upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) and the use of Jelmyto as a treatment. Jelmyto is not an experimental medication. It has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the United States for the treatment of low grade UTUC since April 2021. For this study, data will be collected from the medical record including type and location of UTUC, treatments and surgeries received, and health status following treatments and surgeries. Approximately 400 people will participate in this study. Participation in this study will last three (3) years.

Patients with chronic pancreatitis often suffer from severe abdominal pain that reduce their quality of life. The major purpose of this study is evaluate the safety and efficacy of an infusion of donor derived mesenchymal stem cells to relieve chronic pain. After cell infusion into the vein, the participant will be followed for 6 months to evaluate their pain and other outcomes. There are a total of 5 clinic visits with a total study participation of up to 7 months.

This is a randomized, double-blind, dose-ranging, placebo-controlled study to see how effectively and how safely two different doses of bexotegrast (160 and 320 mg) can be taken every day for 52 weeks (about 12 months) by subjects with IPF (Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis) who are taking or not taking background therapy (other drugs for IPF include nintedanib or pirfenidone). The study is designed to test the study drug in subjects who are taking or not taking background therapy and will include about 80 subjects who are not taking background therapy at study entry. Subjects who are not taking background therapy at study entry will be allowed to start it at any time during the study. The study will consist of an up to 28-day Screening Period, a 52-week Treatment Period, and a 14-day Safety Follow-up Period. Participants will undergo an end-of-study visit at the end of the Safety Follow-up Period.

The goal of this research study is to find out if intramuscular sternocleidomastoid (SCM) steroid injections work to reduce cough when compared to superior laryngeal nerve (SLN) steroid injection. Study patients will be randomly assigned to receive injections to numb the sensation within the voice box in one of two possible locations, either a traditional voice box injection or an injection into the neck muscle (a muscle in the neck near the voice box). The injections are composed of a numbing medication (lidocaine) and a medication that helps the numbing medication work longer (steroid). The outcomes studied will include if the treatments help to minimize chronic cough and associated symptoms. By better understanding if this treatment helps improve chronic cough, an additional treatment option could help patients with chronic cough. Voice box injections are usually only performed by fellowship trained laryngologists (an extra specialized year of training after ENT training). However, if neck muscle injections are found to be equivalent in treating chronic cough, general ENT doctors could likely provide this treatment to their patients without the need to see a specialized voice box doctor.

This study aims to investigate innovative approaches to managing chronic pain and opioid use. This study consists of two phases, each offering different treatment options. Participation is voluntary.

This study will sequentially evaluate three novel and scalable interventions for at-risk individuals on long term opioid therapy for chronic pain: (1) low-dose transdermal buprenorphine initiation without a period of opioid withdrawal; (2) a brief Cognitive Behavioral Intervention for pain (CBI); and (3) transcranial magnetic stimulation by examining standardized repeated measures of clinical outcomes at baseline, during treatment, and at follow-up.

Phase 1:
In this initial phase, all participants will have a 1-week open-label trial of buprenorphine (worn as a patch on the arm, shoulder or upper-back). This trial aims to assess the safety and effectiveness of buprenorphine in managing chronic pain and opioid use. During this phase, participants will have the opportunity to experience the effects of buprenorphine under close monitoring.

Phase 2:
After completing Phase 1, participants will have the opportunity to choose their next course of treatment. They can decide to continue with buprenorphine, and undergo a 1-week trial of either real buprenorphine or a placebo (an inactive substance). They will be randomly assigned to receive either real or placebo buprenorphine. If participants respond well to buprenorphine treatment, they may continue the medication under the care of their physician.

Alternatively, participants can explore an alternative treatment called repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) in Phase 2. If they opt for rTMS, they will receive either real rTMS or a sham version interspersed with cognitive-behavioral therapy for pain. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either real or sham rTMS.

In both phases, participants will receive close monitoring and attend regular study visits to assess safety and progress. Throughout the study, they will be asked to complete questionnaires about pain, functioning and opioid use, undergo physiological monitoring and blood samples will be collected at specific points.

It's important to note that there are potential risks associated with the study medication, such as difficulty sleeping, nausea, and dizziness. Additionally, for the rTMS arm, there is risk of mild headache, pain at the stimulation site, and there may be unknown risks related to the brain stimulation.

Participants' experience in Phase 1 will involve an open-label trial of buprenorphine, and participants' decisions in Phase 2 will determine the treatment path. While the effectiveness of these treatments is uncertain, participants will receive thorough monitoring throughout the study, and have the option to withdraw at any time. Improvement in participant symptoms is possible but not guaranteed.

This research is all about investigating a potential treatment for a specific type of advanced lung cancer. The cancer cells have a protein called c-Met that's acting a bit too excited, driving the cancer to spread and resist treatment. This study focuses on two treatments: one is called Telisotuzumab Vedotin (ABBV-399), which is a smart combination of an antibody and a drug that can stop this protein's activity. The other treatment is called Docetaxel. The researchers have already found in smaller studies that Telisotuzumab Vedotin could be promising for this type of cancer, especially in patients whose previous treatments didn't work well. Now they want to see if it can really make a difference in the long run. They'll be comparing Telisotuzumab Vedotin and Docetaxel to figure out which one is better at helping patients live longer without their cancer getting worse. In this study, participants will be randomly divided into two groups, like flipping a coin. One group will get a new medicine called telisotuzumab vedotin through a vein in their arm every two weeks. The other group will receive a treatment called docetaxel through a vein every three weeks. People in both groups will keep getting their assigned treatment until their doctors say it's time to stop based on certain criteria. Throughout the study, participants will have scans like X-rays or MRIs to see how their tumors are doing. These scans will happen at the beginning and then every few weeks for the first year, and less often as time goes on.Even if someone stops their treatment for a reason other than their cancer getting worse on these scans, the researchers will keep track of them until their cancer gets worse or until they decide they don't want to be in the study anymore.The whole study is expected to last around 38 months, which is a little over 3 years. They'll keep following up with the participants, either by talking to them, checking their medical records, or other appropriate methods, until the participants decide to leave the study or pass away. This study is a big step towards finding better options for people battling this tough form of lung cancer.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and how well the medication levosimenden works versus placebo in treating Pulmonary Hypertension and Heart Failure with a Preserved Ejection Fraction measured by a 6 minute walk. This is a condition where the lower left chamber (left ventricle) of the heart is not able to fill properly with blood during the filling phase and the amount of blood pumped out to the body is below normal. The study will also look at information obtained from the tests performed as part of the study to see if subjects have improvement in symptoms of heart failure. Levosimendan is a drug that has been FDA-approved for intravenous (IV) delivery to your body. This study aims to determine if the tablet form of the drug is as effective as the IV route. Tablets are much more attainable for patients to manage their heart failure from home, rather than going to an infusion clinic for treatments. Participation in this study will last approximately 12 weeks with the option to continue to the stage 2 phase of the study. If the stage 2 phase is selected as well, participation will last approximately 26 months or a little over 2 years. These visits will include such activities as blood tests, questionnaires, physical evaluation by a study doctor, echocardiogram, and 6 minute hall walks.

Participants will be randomized to either the treatment group (and receive the medication) or the control group (receive an inactive medication). Subjects will have a 50:50 chance of receiving the study medication during their participation in the trial. The treatment assignment is determined by randomization, where a computer selects at random which treatment group you will be in (like drawing straws). Neither the subject, nor the blinded personnel will know which group subjects are in. Neither the subject nor the study doctor will decide what group subjects are assigned.

This study is for people newly diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). An investigational (not approved by the FDA) drug, Tamibarotene, will be added to the standard of care drugs prescribed. Tamibarotene is a tablet that will be taken daily. The purpose of this study is to determine if the addition of this medication improves the prognosis of these subjects, as this is the first time it has been added to the treatment plan. The most common side effects observed to date include diarrhea, constipation, and vomiting, along with changes in the lab values. Procedures include lab work and bone marrow collections. Participation duration will depend upon how subjects respond to the treatment.
