Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disease that can affect various organs of the body, especially the skin, joints, blood, kidneys and central nervous system. "Chronic" means that it can last for a long time. "Autoimmune" means that there is a disorder of the immune system, which, instead of protecting the body from bacteria and viruses, attacks the one’s own tissues. We are doing this study to see if the investigational medication called anifrolumab may have an effect in treating pediatric SLE, to see how well it is tolerated or how safe it is, to measure levels of anifrolumab in the blood and learn more about the disease and associated health problems.

The purpose of this research is to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of a new investigational drug called CRN04894, also called atumelnant for treating pediatric participants with Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH). We want to see how safe atumelnant is at different doses and how well the body accepts (tolerates) it and how it moves through the body (how it gets in, spreads around, gets used, and then leaves), also known as pharmacokinetics (PK). We also want to see if if atumelnant produces the expected effect in the body, if it helps control the CAH, and if we can reduce the steroid (GC) dose.

The goal of this study is to find out whether combining different study drugs makes tumors shrink in people with advanced head and neck cancer. This type of cancer is in the mouth, nose, throat, and sinuses. The study drugs are antibodies that act in different ways against cancer. BI 770371 and pembrolizumab may help the immune system fight cancer. Cetuximab blocks growth signals and may prevent the tumor from growing. Participants are put into 1 out of 3 groups, by chance (like drawing names from a hat), and which of the study treatments participants will receive.

This phase I/II trial evaluates the highest safe dose, side effects, and possible benefits of tegavivint in treating children, adolescents, and young adults with recurrent or refractory solid tumors, including lymphomas and desmoid tumors.

The purpose of this study is to learn whether the use of Pregnyl with the drug ruxolitinib is able to reduce the need for high dose steroids to treat severe acute Graft versus Host Disease (GVHD).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of remibrutinib in comparison to dupilumab. We want to see which one works better for helping adults who have chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) and haven't had relief with use of second-generation antihistamines in treating adult participants who have CSU.

We are doing this study to compare the effectiveness of Single Fraction Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS) to radiation treatment called fractionated SRS (or FSRS). SRS delivers a high dose of radiation in a single treatment to the small areas of cancer in the brain. FSRS that delivers a high dose of radiation given over 3 treatments. Both SRS and FSRS only deliver radiation to the small areas of cancer in the brain and minimizes dose to the surrounding normal brain tissue.

Ritlecitinib (LITFULO™, PF-06651600) 50 mg daily is currently approved for people 12 years of age and older to treat severe alopecia areata (hair loss). Ritlecitinib 100 mg will be compared to Ritlecitinib 50 mg to find out if a larger daily dose is safe and can improve regrowth of hair. The study will last about 57 weeks and will have up to 9 visits. Everyone will get one of the two doses of the study drug.

This research trial studies the Project: Every Child for younger patients with cancer. Gathering health information over time from younger patients with cancer may help doctors find better methods of treatment and on-going care.

This study will help to identify challenges and barriers to self-performing anal cancer screening tests, and may identify unique ways to make this form of screening easier, more cost-effective, and more frequently performed. We believe that it has the potential to minimize the frequency of both disease and death from anal cancer among high-risk patient groups.

The goal of this current study is to test whether men with prostate cancer that is getting worse after treatment with hormone therapy and abiraterone respond better to alternating treatment with testosterone and enzalutamide vs. enzalutamide alone. We are testing to see which is better at stopping tumor growth that can be seen on a bone scan or CT scan and the effect of each regimen on lowering Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA values). Participants will be in the study for 6 to 24 months.

The purpose of this study is to find out what dose of CABA-201 can be safely administered to patients with SLE, including those with lupus nephritis (LN). SLE is thought to involve B cells that cause the body to attack different tissues in the body including your skin, joints, kidneys, heart, lungs, brain, and blood cells. LN is a type of kidney disease caused by SLE. CABA-201 is a chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR T) therapy. In this study, we will take some of your T cells, a type of white blood cell, and genetically modify them (put in a “code”) so that they may find and remove the B cells in your body, including the B cells that are involved in causing your disease. Once your cells are modified, CABA-201 cells will be re-infused into your body intravenously (through the vein).

To evaluate the addition of two cycles of blinatumomab for all infants with newly diagnosed ALL and will evaluate in a randomized manner the safety, tolerability, and early activity of venetoclax in infants with KMT2A-R ALL.

This study aims to learn more about how continuous glucose monitor (CGM) data can be used to personalize lifestyle interventions for type 2 diabetes. Participation in the study would require 4-5 clinic visits over a period of 14 weeks. Participants will also be asked to: meet with study staff every 2 weeks (virtually), keep food logs, periodically wear an activity monitor and/or a CGM, answer survey questions, and provide blood samples to measure markers of diabetes control (like hemoglobin A1c).

The study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the investigational BrioVAD® System compared to the commercially available HeartMate 3™ LVAS. Both the BrioVAD System and the HeartMate 3 LVAS are left ventricular assist devices (LVAD) that help pump blood from the lower left chamber of the heart to the rest of the body. An LVAD is used to treat weakened hearts or heart failure and may be a temporary measure while waiting for a heart transplant or a permanent solution.

The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of the study drug fosmanogepix with that of other currently approved treatments to find out if fosmanogepix is safe and effective in treating participants with invasive mold infections. Participants will be assigned to one of two groups depending on the study treatment already received for the current mold infection. Participation in this study will be for a maximum of 8 months.

This clinical research study is being conducted to gain knowledge about a new drug called BAY 2927088 for a type of cancer called advanced non-small cell lung cancer, which cannot be removed with surgery or has spread to other parts of the body, and has a mutation in the HER2 gene.

The main purpose of this study is to look at how safe and well tolerated the study drug is in combination with ribociclib (Group 1) or alpelisib (Group 2), the levels of the study drug and ribociclib or alpelisib in your blood, and how your body and your cancer respond.

This study is for people who feel very hungry all the time, have trouble controlling eating (hyperphagia) and have Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS). ARD-101 is being studied to see if it can help the body release certain gut hormones that may help reduce excessive hunger and food-seeking behaviors in people with PWS. The investigational treatment is a tablet taken by mouth and swallowed whole. The study will continue for up to 20 weeks (about 5 months).

We are looking at a new drug called 'ziltivekimab' to see if it can be used to treat people living with heart failure and inflammation. People will get either ziltivekimab or a placebo (inactive dummy drug). The study drug is an injection given into the fold of the skin on the stomach, thigh or upper arm once every month. People will take the study drug for up to 4 years.

This study will assess how effective and safe the use of the medication named Upadacitinib is for the treatment of signs and symptoms of severe hair loss in adults.

This study is being done to learn more about the safety and effectiveness of ifinatamab deruxtecan (I-DXd) against extensive stage small cell lung cancer.

We are studying the effects of stimulating the vagus nerve. The vagus nerve connects the brain to many organs in the body. Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is already approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat depression and epilepsy. We want to learn more about how it affects other parts of our bodies, such as the heart, metabolism, the immune system, and the nervous system. We hope that by understanding how VNS affects the body as a whole, we can develop new treatments for other conditions, or help to improve its use for depression and epilepsy.

This is a research study designed to test how well a new medication (xaluritamig) works compared to other treatments for people with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. These patients have already been treated with a certain chemotherapy. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: xaluritamig or either cabazitaxel (existing cancer treatment) or another treatment chosen by the doctor. The goal of the study is to find out which treatment is more effective and safer for patients.

This clinical study is for adults whose cancer has spread to the bones of the middle or lower back (spine). Doctors are comparing two common treatments: (1) a needle procedure to treat the tumor and strengthen the bone, followed by radiation, and (2) radiation therapy alone. The goal is to see which option better relieves pain, protects the spine, and improves quality of life. The treatment you receive will be chosen at random (by chance), meaning you will be placed into a study group by chance.

Finding liver cancer early is important to increase chances of getting treatment and decreasing risk of dying from cancer. The purpose of this research is to compare the effectiveness of two liver cancer screening methods to detect liver cancer at an early stage. Participants will be randomly (by chance) placed in one of two study groups – one group will undergo ultrasound imaging of the liver with or without a blood test to measure a specific protein, whereas the second group will undergo a blood test for liver cancer screening called a GALAD score. The GALAD score combines three blood tests to screen for liver cancer. We do not currently know if GALAD would help detect liver cancer earlier than standard screening.

In this study, participants will complete two to three appointments within two weeks. During these appointments, they will complete interviews and questionnaires about their life experiences and mental health. An EEG test will also be conducted while they complete computerized tasks. We are recruiting two groups of participants for this study. One group will include individuals who experience hallucinations, delusions, paranoia, or a psychosis spectrum disorder (i.e., schizophrenia), and the other group will be individuals who do not have a diagnosis or family history of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or autism spectrum disorder.

The purpose of this research study is to obtain information on the safety and effectiveness of PBCAR0191 to treat certain types of cancers, such as Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma and B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. It is made from a type of blood cells known as T cells. The T cells in PBCAR0191 came from people who have donated their blood. The donated T cells have been genetically changed, so that they may be able to kill specific cancer cells commonly present in Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma and B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia.

This study is looking at the safety and effects of Difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) and its effect on insulin production in people who have been newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. DFMO is a drug that is FDA-approved for other uses, but is being looked at in this study for preserving beta cell function. Participants will be randomized (like flipping a coin) to take either the placebo medicine or Difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) for 6 months followed by 6 months of no medication. Of all people participating in the study, 2 out of 3 people will receive DFMO and 1 out of 3 people will receive placebo treatment. Participation in this study will be approximately 12 months.

The investigational therapy in this study is referred to as Restorative Microbiota Therapy (RMT). It is prepared by extracting healthy bacteria from the stool of healthy human donors and making it into capsules taken by mouth. The donor stool samples are rigorously tested for harmful bacteria and viruses before processing. There is scientific evidence to suggest that RMT might make immunotherapy more effective. The primary goal of the study is to test if RMT makes durvalumab + tremelimumab treatment with chemotherapy more effective to control lung cancer.
