This research study is testing a new treatment plan for patients with a type of lung cancer that can be surgically removed. The study focuses on patients who have not had complete success with initial treatments before surgery. The treatment plan includes a combination of chemotherapy and a drug called pembrolizumab before surgery, followed by surgery to remove the cancer, and then more pembrolizumab with or without another drug called MK-2870 after surgery.

The goal is to see if adding MK-2870 can help improve the chances of recovery and prevent the cancer from coming back in patients who didn't respond fully to the initial treatment. This study aims to find better ways to treat lung cancer and improve the survival rates of these patients.

This study is being done to see if injections in different locations can help to minimize chronic cough. This is done through the injection of an anti-inflammatory medication (steroid) into your upper arm muscle. The procedure takes less than 5 minutes. There has not yet been a study completed using arm muscle injections. The safety profile of arm muscle injections is expected to be the same as the superior laryngeal nerve (SLN) injection which is in the neck is already used at MUSC in regular practice. This is the same medication and the same dosage as the arm injection in this study. By better understanding if this treatment helps improve chronic cough, an additional treatment option could be utilized for this patient population. SLN injections are usually only performed by fellowship trained laryngologists (an extra specialized year of training after ENT residency). However, if arm muscle injections are found to be equivalent in treating chronic cough, general ENT physicians could likely provide this treatment to their patients without the need to see a specialized laryngologist. This study will evaluate safety and effectiveness of the arm muscle injection. Steroids are investigational for the purpose of this study.

This study is for participants who have moderate or severe chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD). cGVHD is a condition in which the healthy transplanted (graft) stem cells see the recipient's (host) cells as foreign and start to destroy them.
This Study is being done to learn the effects of the drug INCA034176 (also known as axatilimab) in combination with corticosteroids.

This research study is being done to see the long term effectiveness and safety of a new drug called BHV-7000 as a possible treatment for focal seizures for patients who are taking anti-seizure medications (ASMs) and still experience seizures. You could be eligible to participate in the study if you completed the first double blind study successfully and your study doctor see's that you meet all the criteria for this study.

The purpose of this study is to see if the investigational study drug, called cusatuzumab, is safe and effective when given together with other standard of care drugs used to treat Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML). AML is a type of cancer that affects the blood and bone marrow. Cusatuzumab is a new type of drug for AML. Cusatuzumab is designed to target a protein found on the surface of AML tumor cells, called human cluster of differentiation CD70. CD70 is not widely found in healthy cells. By targeting and killing cells expressing CD70, cusatuzumab has been shown in the laboratory and in animal studies to reduce tumor growth. In this study, cusatuzumab is being tested together with two other drugs that are commonly used to treat AML as a standard of care. These standard of care drugs are called venetoclax and azacitidine. In this consent form, cusatuzumab, venetoclax, and azacitidine will be referred to as "study drugs".

IgAN is a progressive condition that causes chronic kidney disease. Over time, some patients develop end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) requiring dialysis or kidney transplant.

The purpose of this study is to see if an investigational medication is safe and effective in the treatment of IgA nephropathy.

If you are eligible for the study and decide to participate, you will come to MUSC for study visits for about 3 years. These visits will involve blood and urine samples, questions about your health, EKGs, and physical exams. Participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either a weight-based IV infusion of ravulizumab or placebo for 106 weeks. Depending on your response to initial treatment, there is a possibility of additional treatment. An exploratory, open-label cohort of approximately 20 participants with eGFR 20-29 mL/min/1.73m2 may also be enrolled to expand the evidence of ravulizumab in participants with advanced kidney impairment at high risk for ESKD progression.

There is no guarantee that being in this study will help you. There is no cost to participate and compensation is available for the study visits.

This phase 3 study is recruiting patients who have myelofibrosis who have never had a JAK inhibitor. This study will measure the safety and effectiveness of a tumor protein inhibitor treatment called navtemadlin combined with another tumor protein inhibitor called ruxolitinib. Navtemadlin is an "investigational" (not yet FDA approved) treatment, Ruxolitinib is FDA approved. The main purpose of the study is to see if navtemadlin combined with ruxolitinib is an effective treatment for myelofibrosis. The study will enroll approximately 180 patients with each patient initially receiving ruxolitinib. The study includes a screening period, run-in period, and a randomized (like flipping a coin) add-on period. The first two periods will be over the course of 18-24 weeks while the randomized add-on period is for those whose treatment with ruxolitinib is not effective enough and will last for a different amount of time for each patient. In the run-in period after screening, patients will take ruxolitinib at the dose determined by their study doctor for 18-24 weeks. If treatment with ruxolitinib alone is not effective, the participate will be randomized into one of two groups. In the randomized add-on period, participants will either receive ruxolitinib with navtemadlin 240 mg or a matching placebo (a pill that contains no medicine) daily for one week out of the 28-day cycle in combination with ruxolitinib at a dose determined by their study doctor. Patients in this group will continue treatment until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, study closure, death, or withdrawal of consent. The main risk is that medical treatments often cause side effects. Patients may have none, some, or all of the side effects listed or not listed in the protocol, and they may be mild, moderate, or severe. There is no direct benefit for them in participating in this study.

This study is seeking to assess two known risk factors of drowning, swimming ability and water safety knowledge, in parents of children and adolescents presenting to the pediatric emergency department using questionnaires.

By collecting this data, we hope to highlight factors that contribute to disparities in drowning rates in minority racial and ethnic groups and to aid local and federal governments in developing programs that effectively combat the number one cause of unintentional injury-associated death in children ages 1-4 years. This will also provide data that may help guide pediatricians in effective anticipatory guidance for families regarding water safety. All in the effort to minimize disparities in medicine and provide more equitable care to the patients that we see.

The goal is to see how well mirikizumab works for people with ulcerative colitis. This involves looking at its effects in their everyday lives. Understanding its real-world benefits helps determine how effective the medicine is outside of controlled clinical trials.

This study is studying the investigational medication EDG-7500 for the treatment of obstructive and non obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyoapthy. Investigational means it is not approved for sale by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) The study will test to see if the medication can help the heart expand and fill to help its workload. The study has 4 Parts, each of varying durations. The study will last a minimum of 2.5 months to a maximum of 19.5 months. Study related procedures include physical exam, electrocardiogram (ECG) - a tracing of the heart's electrical activity, echocardiogram (echo) - ultrasound test of the heart, blood and urine collection, and possible genetic testing. Risks related to the study medication include atrial fibrillation (fast irregular heartbeat), constipation, diarrhea, dizziness/lightheadedness and upper respiratory infection. Other study related risks include loss of confidentiality, unknown risks and risks related to procedures.
