Summary

This is a is a Phase 1, open-label, dose-escalation, and dose-expansion multicenter study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic (PK) profile, and clinical activity of SNDX-5613 in combination with intensive chemotherapy in participants with newly diagnosed Acute Myeloid Leukemias harboring alterations in KMT2A, NPM1, or NUP98 genes. The primary purpose of this study is to identify the maximum tolerated dose of SNDX-5613 (Revumenib) to be used in both a combination with intensive chemotherapy and alone. SNDX-5613 (Revumenib) is an "investigational" (not yet FDA approved) treatment. The study will enroll approximately 76 patients in 3 phases with each receiving cycles of chemotherapy followed by SNDX-5613 in the Induction and Consolidation phases followed by SNDX-5613 alone in the Maintenance Monotherapy phase if eligible. The study includes screening, treatment, safety follow-up, and survival follow-up periods over the course of 18 months. 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.

Research and Evaluation of Nicotine-free Effects and Wellness

Smoking
Summary

While cigarette smoking is detrimental to health and a known risk factor for cancer, e-cigarettes are thought to be less harmful but not entirely risk-free, and less is known about e-cigarette use and changes to health. The purpose of the present study is to evaluate changes in health that may occur when people stop using e-cigarettes. Participants who use e-cigarettes (and who never smoked, smoked in the past, or currently smoke) will be recruited to participate in a laboratory session followed by a week of abstaining from any nicotine use. Throughout the study, participants will provide biological samples for analysis of DNA damage, immune functioning, inflammation, and respiratory functioning at the MUSC Charleston campus. Results will provide insight into the health benefits of quitting vaping.

A randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, multi-center study of the safety and efficacy of Niyad in patients undergoing continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) who cannot tolerate heparin or are at a higher risk for bleeding

List of Studies


Keywords
Kidney
Summary

This is a research study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Niyad (nafamostat mesylate) as a blood thinner used during continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). CRRT is a standard treatment much like dialysis that is used to temporarily take the place of kidney function when one's kidneys are injured. Like your kidneys, CRRT helps to clean your blood and remove waste products.

Niyad is experimental which means that it is being tested and is not approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). There is no guarantee that you will receive direct benefit as a result of your participation in this study. Possible benefits of Niyad include preventing your blood from clotting the dialysis filter so that the CRRT machine works more effectively and it also may reduce your need for a transfusion. The study results may help people in the future.

Participation voluntary and is expected to last up to 28 days. The length of time you may be exposed to Niyad is up to 7 days and safety assessments may last up to 28 days.

There will be no additional cost to you for procedures required in this research study. All routine clinical care that you would have undergone without participation in the study, including testing and procedures, will be billed to you/your insurance company. All study-related tests and procedures will be paid for by the Sponsor.

Some insurance plans will not pay for these services for people taking part in research studies. You will be responsible for any charges that your insurance does not cover including co-payments and deductibles.

Summary

This is a prospective, longitudinal, multicenter, nonrandomized observational study to obtain research quality data across key outcome measures in people with Cystic Fibrosis who are ineligible and/or not taking a approved CFTR modulator and who are not receiving an investigational therapy.

Participants will be seen at study sites for research visits to include spirometry, patient reported outcomes (PROs), and blood collections on Day 0, Day 90 (3 months), Day 180 (6 months), and Day 360 (12 months). Participants will complete home spirometry as well during this period.

Randomized Phase 2 Study of Nivolumab and Ipilimumab With or Without Cabozantinib in Patients With Advanced Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma That Have Progressed After Platinum Treatment and Immunotherapy

Summary

This study is designed to learn more about how nivolumab and ipilimumab, with or without cabozantinib effects the growth and spreading of head and neck cancer. 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 receive the combination of two immunotherapy drugs, nivolumab and ipilimumab for up to 2 years, or the two immunotherapy drugs with an additional targeted drug, cabozantinib, for up to 2 years unless your cancer gets worse or the side effects of the treatment become too severe. In the follow up period the side effects will be observed by the study team every 3 to 4 months for 2 years after treatment. The most common risks and discomforts expected in this study are diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, tiredness, weight loss, loss of appetite, changes in taste or voice, redness, pain or peeling of palms and soles, and high blood pressure which may cause blurred vision. 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 this combination treatment works at curing this type of cancer. The study results may be used to help others in the future.

Pediatrics, Sleep Disorders
Summary

This research study aims to compare usual care with a patient navigation intervention for children with sleep-disordered breathing (SDB). SDB is a range of symptoms from snoring to severe obstructive sleep apnea. In the REPOSE intervention, a centralized patient navigator will find out the dynamic individual barriers that families face in caring for their child with SDB. They will also provide resources and social support for parent-child dyads. In addition, the navigator facilitates bidirectional SDB care coordination between clinical teams and parents to achieve evidence-based care. The patient navigation intervention group will be compared to the group of children receiving standard of care.

Alcohol
Summary

Rates of heavy episodic drinking (HED) among military veterans are almost double that of the general population. Veterans also experience more serious negative health consequences of HED, including high-risk behaviors such as aggression. Research shows there is a link between HED and aggression. However, no programs exist to reduce alcohol-related aggression among veterans. The purpose of this study is to examine the feasibility and acceptability of adapting a current therapy - Managing Emotions to Reduce Aggression (MERA) - to include alcohol-focused Motivational Interviewing plus Feedback (MIF). We will use a brief, four session protocol that includes an hour of talk therapy, plus completion of surveys at each of the four sessions.
