Summary

The purpose of this research study is to evaluate Parent Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) delivered via tele-health for young children with a developmental diagnosis (ex. suspected or diagnosed autism, ADHD, global developmental delay, etc.) and disruptive behavior problems. Participants will go through a screening to determine eligibility. Once screening is complete, participants will complete a pre-therapy assessment in clinic, followed by 10 telehealth sessions one time per week, at no cost. Participants will then be asked to complete an in-person post-therapy assessment and follow-up questionnaires will be re-administered 3 months following the completion of therapy. Families will be compensated for their time.

Summary

This study is for subjects with Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) that has gotten worse or come back after two or more treatments. This study is testing an "investigational" (not yet FDA approved drug) study drug called loncastuximab tesirine (ADCT-402). Treatment will be administered intravenously or via tablet depending on the subject's assigned treatment. The primary purpose of this study is to test whether the investigational drug combination of loncastuximab tesirine in combination with one of four other anti-cancer agents is a safe and effective treatment for relapsed or refractory B-cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma. Treatment will be assigned by a system in a sequence unless the subject has received the combination drug (the drug that is not locastuximab). This means the first enrolled subject will be assigned to arm C, the second to arm E, and so on. The subject will be seen approximately once a week during treatment, and may remain in the study for up to 3 years.

Summary

This study is for patients who have been diagnosed with relapsed (the disease has gotten worse after a period of improvement) or refractory (the disease does not respond to treatment) Epstein-Barr Virus-Positive (EBV+) lymphomas.

The investigational drug in this study is Nanatinostat. Investigational means it is not approved by the United States' Food and Drug Administration (US FDA). Nanatinostat is a tablet that will be taken by mouth once a day.

The purpose of this research study is to determine the effectiveness and safety of the combination therapy, nanatinostat and valganciclovir, on treating lymphoma cancers. Valganciclovir is an approved anti-viral drug (a drug that fights against virus in your body), which has been used in the prevention and treatment of infection caused by a virus called cytomegalovirus (CMV), which is similar to Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). The safety and effectiveness of nanatinostat on its own will also be reviewed in a small subset of patients.

Participants can expect to receive treatment until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity/ side effects, or participants withdraw. Participants can expect to be in follow up for up to 5 years.

Summary

This study is for participants that have been diagnosed with Medulloblastoma. The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness of using an investigational agent called DFMO for Medulloblastoma. An investigational drug is one that has not been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). This study will look at the ability of this study drug to either keep participants tumor in remission or if they have active tumor, for their tumor to respond to the treatment and will also look at the safety and tolerability of DFMO. After this first day participants will be seen in clinic once every 30 days for the first 6 months of the study, after that they will be seen once every 90 days for the remainder of the study. These visits will last about 2 hours.

Summary

The purpose of this study is to test whether a drug called PRA023/MK7240 (the study drug) is a good treatment for patients with Systemic Sclerosis associated with Interstitial Lung Disease (SSc-ILD). The study drug PRA023/7240 is an investigational drug that is given by infusion every 4 weeks. An investigational drug is not approved by The US Food and Drug Administration. It can only be used in a research study like this one. In this study, PRA023/MK7240 will be compared with a placebo (dummy drug). The placebo will be a saline solution that does not have any study drug in it. The comparison with the placebo helps to determine whether the effects seen in your body is because of the PRA023/MK7240 or not. This is a randomized study meaning that you will be assigned by chance (like flipping a coin) to receive either the study drug or placebo. This will be done with the help of a computer-based program and you will have 50% chance of receiving either the study drug or placebo. The study is double-blinded study and 50 weeks long, meaning you and your study doctor will not know what you are receiving, the study drug or placebo.

The study is sponsored by Prometheus Biosciences, Inc., a subsidiary of Merck & Co., Inc. The study is being done at approximately 25 sites across the United States. The main portion of the study will require 15 visits to the MUSC main campus and will have the following procedures completed over the course of your participation: blood draw, physician-led assessments of your disease (for example physical exam and skin thickness testing), tests to assess your pulmonary function and health (Pulmonary Function Test (PFT) and High Resolution Computed Tomography (HRCT)), electrocardiogram, as well as asked to complete surveys. If you complete the initial blinded treatment period of 50 weeks, the study doctor will discuss whether you are eligible to enter the open label period of the study, meaning no placebo. If you are eligible and agree, you will receive 500 mg of study drug once every 4 weeks for an additional 52 weeks. Compensation is available for participation.

Summary

Maxillary expanders are orthodontic appliances that are commonly used to expand the upper jaw. The purpose of this study will be to compare the effects produced by two different maxillary expanders in children 8-13 years old. The first type of expander is made by hand in an orthodontic laboratory, and the second type of expander is designed on a computer and printed using 3D printers. Both expanders are already used in the MUSC Orthodontics Clinic. The purpose of this study is to see if the 3D printed expander is as effective as the traditional expander made by hand in the laboratory, with more comfort to the patient. Patients participating in the study will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: group A will be treated with a laboratory-made maxillary expander, and group B with a 3D-Printed maxillary expander. Information will be collected on the participants' standard clinical follow-up visits including photos, x-rays, and dental photo scans over the course of 6 months to see how the expander is working. In addition, as part of the research study, the participant will be asked to complete online questionnaires with assistance from parents or guardians about his/her quality of life and perception of possible pain and discomfort at different time points. The potential benefits of this study include the use of 3D technology to improve the quality of the orthodontic treatment, with more comfort to the patient.
