The purpose of this study is to identify whether investigational blood and tissue testing can detect cancer cells in the blood stream can tell if subjects are responding to their individual treatment plans.

Participation will last as long as the subject's individual treatment plan and will consist of collecting tissue biopsies (10 slides), which will be taken during the subject's standard of care procedure, as well as blood draws (between 1 and 2 tablespoons), which will be taken during each of the subject's standard of care clinic appointments throughout their care journey.

This study is part of what is called a platform study. This platform study, called the "PRACTICAL" study is designed so that various interventions can be evaluated at the same time against standard therapy. This allows researchers to compare these newer interventions to each other as well as to the established usual practice and helps them explore different ways to potentially improve the management of lung injury. Within the platform study there are various different sub-studies that have their own interventions and procedures. This domain sub-study is the "Mechanical Ventilation Study" and it is a multi-centre, randomized, open-label trial that will evaluate multiple ventilation strategies in comparison to conventional lung-protective ventilation in patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF). This domain will enroll perpetually, as interventions are added, continued, or discontinued. Researchers for this study are looking for different types of ventilation strategies (ways that the ventilators control settings can be adjusted) that may be the most helpful for people in their recovery, while also reducing lung damage caused by the ventilator.

This research study aims to find out the effect of REPOSE, a screening and patient navigation intervention, on the receipt of equitable care among racially and ethnically diverse children with Sleep Disordered Breathing (SDB).

In this study, parents and their child will participate in the REPOSE Patient Navigation Intervention, where the child will be screened for SDB at their pediatric well-visit. If the child's screening is positive, the parent will be asked if they and the child would like to be a part of the REPOSE Patient Navigation Intervention. The REPOSE patient navigation will utilize a patient navigator that will a) ID and address dynamic individual barriers to care, b) provide education and social support for parents and children who are diagnosed with SDB, and c) coordinate care between medical providers and parent/child to complete evidence-based care (e.g., sleep study, tonsillectomy). The navigator will follow patients to completion of recommended treatment or up to 6 months after enrollment.

Patient Navigation has been proven to benefit adult cancer patients but has not been tested in pediatric patients with sleep-disordered breathing. This study is an effort to demonstrate whether patient navigation is effective in increasing the receipt of equitable care for children with SDB. The REPOSE Intervention is designed to guide parents of children with SDB through and around barriers in the complex healthcare system to achieve timely diagnosis and treatment.

This will be a 26-week, prospective, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled safety and efficacy study of udenafil 87.5 mg tablets versus placebo (both taken twice daily in adolescent subjects who have had the Fontan procedure. The primary efficacy endpoint will be change from baseline at 26 weeks in peak minute oxygen consumption [VO2] (mL/kg/min).

This is a prospective, multicenter, observational study in an international setting (North America, Europe, and Israel) to follow clinical outcomes for patients with complex fistulizing conditions for 24 months after undergoing surgical intervention to treat the index fistula. During participation, standardized data on exposure and outcomes (clinical, patient reported outcomes (PROs), and Healthcare Resource Utilization (HCRU)) will be collected from electronic data capture forms (EDCs). Following the surgical intervention for the fistulizing condition (index date), outcomes will be assessed at 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, and 24 months post-surgery (post-index).

The primary study objective in DEP is to assess the percentage change in blood Phe level.
The secondary objectives in Period 1 are to assess the absolute change in Phe level; to assess the safety and tolerability of SYNB1934; to assess the proportion of patients with a ≥ 20% reduction in blood Phe concentration; and, to assess proportion of patients achieving blood Phe ≤ 360 μmol/L.
Exploratory objectives in DEP are to determine the responder population for RWP, assess the absolute and relative change in blood Phe concentration; and to assess the proportion of patients achieving a blood Phe ≤ 600 μmol/L.

This study will investigate the relationships among social determinants of health (SDOH), perceived stress, coping, and quality of life (QoL) in parents of children with congenital heart disease (CHD). Surveys will be administered to assess perceived stress, coping strategies, QoL, and SDOH. Semi-structured interviews with parents of children with CHD will explore parent experiences with CHD-related stressors, current use of coping strategies, SDOH barriers and facilitators to effective coping, and preferences for future interventions to reduce stress and facilitate coping.

This is a phase 4, prospective, multicenter, single-arm, open-label study designed
to evaluate the effect of early and rapid treprostinil therapy on mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP) reduction to improve Right ventricular (RV) function and reverse RV remodeling in patients with PAH. This study will use the CardioMEMS™ HF System (CardioMEMS) to measure and monitor mPAP, but may allow mPAP monitoring via RHC (right heart catheterization), if CardioMEMS is NOT available at a subject's Baseline Visit (Day 1) or if the CardioMEMS™ PA Sensor implantation is unsuccessful.

Participation is expected to be up to 37 months and will include about 10 office visits to the study doctor. This will be divided up into a 30-day Screening Period, a 12-month Treatment Period, and a 24-month Extended Treatment Period.

The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility and safety of modified surgical eyeglasses to view bevonescein intraoperatively and the safety of bevonescein as it shows nerve tissue in the body. Bevonescein is an investigational drug being developed to help doctors identify nerves within the body during surgery.
The drug is administered through a vein in the arm and into the blood stream.t Bevonescein then travels through the blood where it makes nerve tissue fluorescent so that it can then be detected by the modified surgical eyeglasses used in this study by a surgeon. This may help the surgeon (study doctor) to tell the difference between nerve tissue and other tissue during surgery. Bevonescein and the modified surgical eyeglasses that your surgeon will wear (ReVealTM 475) are considered investigational because they are not approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to help with the visualization of nerves during surgery Alternatives to this study can include to undergo surgery without the study drug.

The duration of this study is about 2 months. The procedures of this study include administration of the study drug once (500 mg), collection of blood and urine samples, and ECGs. Surgery will happened as planned by the study doctor but as part of the research, the surgeon will ear modified surgical eyeglasses to view nerves and may take pictures or video clips. The glasses are FDA cleared but the modified filter and its use in combination with bevonescein is considered experimental.

The most commonly expected risks of fluorescein are nausea, vomiting, and stomach discomfort. Because bevonescein is cleared through the urine, there may be a potential risk to the kidneys and renal (kidney) system. The most serious risks of fluorescein may include severe local tissue damage, anaphylaxis, convulsions, cardiac arrest, and death.

5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) medications are first line treatment for mild to moderate Ulcerative Colitis (UC), comprise 81% of all UC prescriptions, and have a market share of 1.5 billion. However, despite 5-ASA frequency and optimization, 35% of patients fail induction therapy and 52% of patients fail to maintain remission at 12 months, requiring step up therapy to immunomodulators or biologics which have increased side effects and cost. This highlights a key challenge in UC which is to address the large inter- and intrapatient variabilities in both disease progression and variability in response to treatment. Chronotherapy is the timing of medical interventions according to the host circadian rhythms in order to optimize drug response and minimize toxicity, and is one explanation for the large variability in response to medications. The long-term objective of our research is to establish the hypothesis that is that appropriate time of day of administration of oral, once daily 5-ASA therapy in alignment with the host circadian rhythms will improve subclinical inflammation and microbial structure/function and increase mucosal 5-ASA levels. To test this hypothesis, In
response to the small R01 for pilot and feasibility clinical trials (PAS-20-160) and to test our hypothesis, we propose to conduct a six month, single center, randomized crossover pilot trial involving 60 subjects with inactive UC [Mayo score ≤2, endoscopic score 0-1] but subclinical inflammation [stool calprotectin > 50 mcg/g] on a stable dose of once daily 5-ASA medication. All subjects will be randomized to once daily 5-ASA medications two different times of the day: either between 06:00 – 10:00 h or 18:00 – 22:00 h. Three disease assessments will performed at: 1) enrollment just before randomization; 2) month 3, at the completion of first arm (condition 1), and 3) month 6, after completion of the second arm (condition 2). We will assess time impact of our chronotherapy protocol on: 1) subclinical inflammation (Aim 1): a) stool calprotectin; b) intestinal barrier integrity; and c) endoscopic/histology scores; 2) Microbiota: mucosal and stool microbiota structure and function (Aim 2); and 3) 5-ASA metabolism: a) increase mucosal levels of 5-ASA and b) mucosal NAT activity (Aim 3). In addition, optimal 5-ASA treatment (i.e., Aims 1-3) will depend upon host chronotype which will be monitored by validated questionnaires, rest-wake actigraphy, and urinary melatonin. The results of this innovative proposal will establish a key role for chronotherapy in the treatment of UC and provide pilot data for the future larger multicenter clinical trials. Chronotherapy will allow for a personalized medicine approach that incorporates circadian biology to improve efficacy and minimize intolerance in treatment of UC.
