Summary

This study is trying to find out whether early repair of small Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms (AAAs) in women improves health outcomes compared to routine monitoring. An AAA occurs when a section of the aorta in the abdomen weakens and bulges outward, resembling a balloon. This condition is serious because if the aneurysm ruptures, it can cause severe internal bleeding and can be fatal. This question is important because women with small AAAs may have a higher risk of rupture than men, and doctors are not yet sure whether early repair is better than standard monitoring. Surgical repair is the elective standard of care for aneurysms above 5.5cm in size. In our study we are evaluating if earlier repair (between 4.0- 5.4 cm) might be beneficial to women with abdominal aneurysms, but it is important to note that surgical repair involves risks and could lead to other complications, including death. These risks are discussed later in this form. There is also the possibility that you may need additional procedures, including open surgery.

Summary

This study is recruiting patients receiving cancer treatment that includes a type of drug called an "alkylating agent", which may cause side effects such as damage to the ovaries (female reproductive organs). The goal of the study is to determine the feasibility of conducting a cross network, multi-site, randomized clinical trial of triptorelin among newly diagnosed adolescent and young adult (AYA) female cancer patients age <40 years (exclusive of breast cancer). The triptorelin used in this study may affect how different parts of your body work such as your liver, kidneys, heart, and blood. Participants will receive the medications through an intramuscular (IM) injection in their arm. Study participation is expected to last up to three years.

Expanded Access Program To Treat Patients with Previously Treated Metastatic Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma with Daraxonrasib

Keywords

Summary

This study is being offered for patients with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma who have tried available approved treatments and do not have satisfactory treatment options or are unable to participate in a clinical trial. The purpose of this Expanded Access Program (EAP) is to provide access to daraxonrasib, an investigational drug that has not yet been approved by the FDA.

Daraxonrasib is an oral tablet. Clinic visit are every 28 days to receive a new supply of daraxonrasib. Participation is expected to last until whichever of the following occurs first - 1: you are no longer benefiting from daraxonrasib; 2: daraxonrasib becomes commercially available (FDA approved); 3: Revolution Medicines, the Sponsor of the EAP, the IRB, or the FDA decides to stop the EAP.

Risks include skin rash, diarrhea, nausea and vomiting, mouth sores, and swelling. This EAP is not a research study. Its main goal is to provide access to daraxonrasib to patients who may benefit based on what information is known about the drug so far. There is no guarantee that your cancer will get better as a result of receiving daraxonrasib. It is possible that you will show no improvement or that your cancer could get worse.

Summary

This study is for patients that have been diagnosed with advanced solid tumors. This study is testing an investigational drug called At0365-P1-01. "Investigational" means it has not been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate how safe the drug is, how well participants can handle the drug, how it moves through the body, how it affects the body, and if the drug helps treat the cancer of AT03-65. AT03-65 is administered via intravenous (IV) infusion. Participants can continue to receive this study drug until it no longer gives them benefit. The estimated study duration is approximately 30-35 months for subjects screening, treatment and follow-up.

Malabsorption as a Cause of Iron Deficiency Anemia

Blood Disorders, Nutrition
Summary

Iron deficiency is the most common nutritional deficiency worldwide and is a leading cause of anemia, which can result in symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, shortness of breath, and reduced quality of life. This study aims to better understand why some people develop iron deficiency by examining how the body absorbs iron and how this may relate to diet and proteins involved in iron absorption. Participants will complete questionnaires, provide blood, urine, and stool samples, undergo an oral iron absorption test, and complete a short food diary. If an upper endoscopy is already being performed as part of routine medical care, one additional biopsy sample will be collected during the procedure for research purposes. The information gathered may help improve the diagnosis and evaluation of iron deficiency anemia in the future. Participation involves two study visits over approximately one month. There is no direct medical benefit to participants, but the knowledge gained may benefit future patients with iron deficiency anemia.
