This study involves research. You are being asked to participate in this research study to have your temperature taken. The purpose of the study is to collect data to test a temperature measurement module that is part of medical study device that measure's human body temperature.
This study is enrolling subjects with non-obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (nHCM). nHCM is typically a genetic condition in which the main pumping chamber of the heart (called the left ventricle) becomes abnormally thickened and stiff, which makes it harder for the ventricle to fill and pump out enough blood. This study involves the investigational medication Aficamten, which means it is not approved for commercial use by the Food and Drug Administration. (FDA) Aficamten is designed to reduced excessive heart pumping function. This is a randomized study which means all subjects are assigned to receive either Aficamten or placebo. Subjects have a 50:50 chance of being assigned to either group, but will not know which group they are assigned. Placebo looks like the medication but does not have any active ingredients in it. Study procedures include exercise testing, echocardiograms (ultrasound test of the heart), blood work, questionnaires and genetic testing. Study risks include risks associated with the study medication including decreased heart pumping, nausea, headache and dizziness. There are also study procedure related risks, and the risk of loss of confidentiality. There may be no benefit but the information learned may benefit others in the future. Study participation will last between 10.5 and 19 months and include up to 13 visits to the study site. Visits will generally last 2-3 hours.
This study is designed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of using a combination of two different medications (extended release naltrexone and bupropion) compared to matching placebo (an inactive substance) in the treatment of methamphetamine use disorder. Participants will undergo screening, and if eligible, will receive study medications along with brief medication management for twelve weeks, with follow up visits at weeks 14 and 16. The total study duration is around 19 weeks.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of eltrekibart compared to placebo in adults with moderate to severe HS. The study duration will be up to 67 weeks. This study includes a screening period, a 16-week double-blind, placebo-controlled treatment period, a 36-week double-blind maintenance treatment period, and a 10-week follow-up period.
The purpose of this research study is to study if the investigational drug, MK-6194, is safe and effective to treat adults with non-segmental vitiligo. In this study, MK-6194 or placebo administration will occur every two weeks or every four weeks to evaluate how well MK-6194 may treat non-segmental vitiligo. This study can last up to 60 weeks, including up to 4 weeks for screening, up to 52 weeks for treatment, and 14 days for safety follow-up. Eligible participants will be randomized 1:1:1 to receive MK-6194 every two weeks, every four weeks, or receive placebo.
The purpose of this study is to test whether a drug called NS-229 (the study drug) is a potential treatment for patients with Eosinophilic Granulomatosis With Polyangiitis (EGPA).
NS-229 is an investigational drug that is provided in an oral pill form. 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, NS-229 will be compared with a placebo (dummy drug), having no active drug in it. 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. The study is also double-blinded study, meaning you and your study doctor will not know what you are receiving, the NS-229 or placebo.
The study is sponsored by a NS Pharma, Inc. Participation in the study will require 12 visits to the MUSC main campus over approximately 8 months. Visits are much like the your standard of care and include the following procedures: blood draw, urine collection, physician-led assessments of your disease (for example physical exam and medical history review), tests to assess your lung function and health (Pulmonary Function Test (PFT) and spirometry, health questionnaires. You will also be asked to complete a daily diary regarding your medication use and vasculitis symptoms.
Compensation is available for participation
To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of direct carotid access for stenting using
the Neuroguard IEP® Direct System in subjects at elevated risk for adverse events
following carotid endarterectomy (CEA).
This is a study designed to determine the 99th percentile upper reference limit (URL) for the Quidel
TriageTrue® hs-Tnl Test (TriageTrue) in whole blood and plasma.
The study will enroll apparently healthy adults. Potential subjects will be pre-screened for
eligibility using a questionnaire to assess comorbidities, chronic conditions, and medication use.
Those with comorbidities or chronic conditions that potentially affect the heart will not be eligible,
nor will those who are prescribed medications related to cardiovascular disease or risk factors.
The study is for patients that have been diagnosed with TNBC (Triple Negative Breast Cancer). The treatment drugs being utilized are sacituzumab govitecan (Trodelvy) and pembrolizumab (Keytruda). The main purpose of this study is to determine if the combination of sacituzumab govitecan and pembrolizumab can improve outcomes and delay the return of disease in subjects with high-risk early TNBC. Subjects can expect to be in this study for up to 18 months.
This is a Phase 2, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study of KER-012 (study drug) compared to Placebo in adult participants with a primary diagnosis of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) on stable background PAH therapy. About 90 participants, in approximately 60 study centers worldwide, will take part in this study. Participation in this study may last up to 2 years and the study has a Screening period, Treatment period, Extension period, and Follow-up period.
