The purpose of this study is to test the safety of FT825 at different doses and to understand the way the body processes and responds to FT825. The study will also find out what effects FT825, when given with or without a monoclonal antibody (cetuximab) and different chemotherapy regimens, have on cancer. FT825 is a type of cell product made up of “T cells.” T cells are part of your immune system and are important in helping fight infections. T cells are also important in eliminating cancer cells.

A Phase I/II trial of single agent intravenous CBL0137 in pediatric patients (≥ 12 months and ≤ 30 years) with relapsed/refractory solid tumors, including CNS tumors and lymphoma.

This study is about assessing compliance, satisfaction, and usability of a take-home device for tinnitus management, specifically a bimodal neuromodulation device using customized acoustic stimulation paired with electrical ear stimulation. This study also examines whether integrative health (IH) practices – such as deep breathing – paired with bimodal neuromodulation can enhance long-term plasticity of the brain and reduce stress.

This research study is testing a potential new treatment for refractory chronic migraine (RCM). The potential new treatment is called ShiraTronics Migraine Therapy. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the ShiraTronics Migraine Therapy System. The ShiraTronics System delivers mild electrical pulses to nerves associated with migraine pain around the back and front of your head. These electrical pulses interrupt or change the transmission of pain signals to the brain, which can potentially relieve your chronic migraine pain and symptoms. The ShiraTronics System is approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration for investigational (under research) use, and not approved for sale.

Blood vessel inflammation can damage parts of the body. The medicines we use to treat AAV try to turn off the blood vessel inflammation to prevent damage to the body. The purpose of this study is to see how safe and how well a medicine called avacopan works when combined with a child’s regular medicine used to treat their AAV. This medicine is not approved in children, so will be called a “study drug.”

Stem cell transplants (sometimes referred to as a bone marrow transplants) have been done for over 40 years but research continues to further refine the method to reduce side effects without affecting transplant success. The purpose of this study is to improve on transplant outcomes while reducing the potential side effects based on what has been learned from previous transplant studies using a reduced intensity preparative regimen. Information collected during this study (transplant outcomes and side effects) will be compared with the outcomes of the previous reduced intensity conditioning transplant study that enrolled more than 300 patients since 2002.

This study is testing an “investigational” drug referred to as peptide alarm therapy (PAT) that was specially made for this study. PAT is using the peptide to stimulate the immune system for people who have failed prior treatment with a PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor. Examples of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors are pembrolizumab (Keytruda), nivolumab (Opdivo), cemiplimab (Libtayo), atezolizumab (Tecentriq), avelumab (Bavencio), and durvalumab (Imfinzi). The goal of the 1st part of the study is to identify an acceptable, safe dose of PAT and up to 3 dose levels of PAT will be tested. If dose level 3 is reached without toxicity, it becomes the dose used for the next part of the study. In the 2nd part of the study, additional patients are treated at the PAT dose identified as safe in the 1st part to gain additional safety information and provide an initial estimate of anti-cancer effect.

The purpose of this study is to learn how to improve hypoglycemia unawareness - a condition where people with Type 1 Diabetes may not be able to tell how low their blood sugar levels are. This study will use different types of education and devices to see if they can help people become more aware when the blood sugar is low.

Nerandomilast is being developed to treat lung fibrosis. This study is to test a drug called nerandomilast in people with SARD-ILD who also take an immunosuppressant medicine. Participants are put into 2 groups randomly, which means by chance and will receive either nerandomilast or placebo tablets. Placebo tablets look like nerandomilast tablets but do not contain any study drug. Participants will be in the study for about 7.5 to 13 months depending on when they join the study.

The usual approach for patients who are not in a study is treatment of ovarian cancer with surgery, radiation, or U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved drugs. Sometimes, combinations of these treatments are used. We are doing this study because we want to find out if the use of Olaparib for one year is as good or worse than the usual approach for ovarian tumor.

To evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of VX-407 in participants with Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease with PKD1 gene variants

Back pain is one of the most common and disabling chronic pain conditions in the United States. Most cases remain poorly managed and many sufferers, with Black and Hispanic Americans, as well as individuals with less education and income, experiencing poorer outcomes. This project aims to address barriers that currently exist within the healthcare system by co-developing and evaluating with community stakeholders, accessible evidence-based complementary and integrative health approaches that can be offered in community settings.

The goal of this study is to determine if healthy donor microbes released in the small intestine act the same way as healthy donor microbes released in the large intestine for people with Crohn's Disease. We will see what good bacteria are present in intestinal biopsies at 8 weeks and look for improvement in inflammation with colonoscopy.

This study has 2 parts: a double-blind period and an open-label extension. In the double-blind period of this study, the study medicine will be compared to a placebo. A placebo is a treatment that looks and tastes exactly like the study medicine but does not contain any active ingredient. In this study, you will receive leriglitazone or placebo. Whether you receive leriglitazone or placebo will be decided randomly (by chance, like flipping a coin). In this study, 1 out of every 2 subjects (50%) will receive leriglitazone and 1 out of every 2 subjects (50%) will receive placebo. To make this study fair, you and the study doctor will not be told which treatment you will receive, this is called “blinding”. In the open-label extension, all subjects will receive leriglitazone.

We are hoping to understand more about how being in the ICU impacts children who use breathing support at home and their families. As part of this research study, families will be asked to complete the following during four study periods: questionnaires, airway oscillometry to test a child’s breathing, and short daily surveys

The overall goal of this phase 3 non-inferiority study is to assess if selumetinib works as well as the standard treatment using carboplatin and vincristine (called CV) for subjects with low-grade glioma (LGG).

The purpose of this study is to compare effects of the study drug fosmanogepix with already-approved drugs caspofungin and fluconazole to find out if fosmanogepix is safe and effective in treating patients with candidemia and/or invasive candidiasis.

This research study is for participants who have a weakened immune system (are immunocompromised), have a lower lung infection and are currently using a machine or device to help them breathe. The study will look at whether the study drug, DAS181, works and how safe it is compared with a placebo in adults who have a weakened immune system (immunocompromised) and a parainfluenza virus (PIV) infection of the lower respiratory tract. A placebo looks the same as the study drug but does not contain any active ingredients.

Currently, more than half of all women who are able to quit smoking cigarettes during pregnancy start smoking again within six months after they give birth. We want to find out if the drug bupropion (a commercially-available medicine) can help women who quit smoking during pregnancy to continue not smoking after they give birth. All study visits can be completed either in-person or virtually.

This first-in-human study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and antitumor activity of TORL-1-23 in patients with advanced cancer.

This research is being done to determine whether the investigational drug tabelecleucel (allogeneic Epstein-Barr virus-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes [EBV-CTLs]) can help people with EBV-associated diseases.

The purpose of this study is to understand if a new tool will help improve early detection of pulmonary hypertension (PH) in patients with interstitial lung disease. Pulmonary hypertension is high blood pressure in the pulmonary artery (which carries blood from your heart to the lungs). We are testing a tool that looks at an electrocardiogram (ECG) to find patients who are identified as being high risk for having PH that is not yet diagnosed. Participation in this study will last approximately six months.

This research is being completed to examine the cells, brain imaging, and speech in individuals with REM Sleep Behavior Disorder who are taking serotonergic medications such as Citalopram, Escitalopram, Fluoxetine, Fluvoxamine, Paroxetine and Sertraline. The purpose of examining these is to try and see if we can predict signs of Dementia with Lewy bodies (a progressive form of dementia with an increase in decline of thinking, reasoning, and other functions). This may benefit others by enabling us to diagnose Dementia with Lewy Bodies sooner rather than later.

People with Primary MN lose more protein in their urine because the filters in their kidneys may be damaged. It is possible that some belimumab may also be lost in the urine because of this. This study will measure belimumab in the blood to decide if people with high urine protein should receive a higher dose of belimumab. Another purpose of this study is to help learn about whether the combination of belimumab and rituximab treatment is effective in making and keeping Primary MN inactive.

Nephrotic syndrome is a condition which affects the kidneys causing them to leak protein from the blood into the urine. Nephrotic syndrome is a disease that can improve (remission) and worsen (relapse) at different times throughout childhood. By collecting health information and laboratory samples, our goal is to learn more about these kidney diseases and find better ways to prevent and treat people with nephrotic syndrome. New knowledge will be shared with researchers and the public.

The Kidney Precision Medicine Project (KPMP) is a research study. Our goal is learn more about kidney injury and kidney disease. By studying your kidneys, we may learn more about why chronic kidney disease happens and how to treat it more effectively or even how to prevent it. Or participants have had diabetes for many years and have not clinical signs of chronic kidney disease. By studying your kidneys, we may learn more about the factors that help protect you from kidney disease. KPMP will last for at least 10 years.

The purpose of this study is to establish a registry and biobank to study monoclonal gammopathy and amyloidosis. We aim to understand better the changes these diseases cause, the symptoms they present, and the clinical progression to be able to better prevent them and treat them in the future.

People with diabetes and their “Follower” (family member, friend, or caregiver) will participate together in 4+ sessions with a Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist over 90 days. Sessions can be completely virtual (via Zoom) or in person. Participants will receive a personalized Diabetes Action Plan to help navigate the challenges of living with diabetes. The “Follower” (family member, friend, or caregiver) will “follow” blood sugar data in real-time and assist their care partner with diabetes to “troubleshoot” using the Diabetes Action Plan.

The purpose of this study is to capture clinical information on how kidney disease affects the health of women, focusing on menstrual and reproductive health, the transition to menopause (the time when your menstrual periods stop permanently), and menopause itself. We also wish to learn more about how women’s health affects their kidney disease, bone and heart health.

There is evidence that the gut microbes interact with the body’s immune system, and people with pulmonary hypertension may have altered composition of gut microbes. We are studying whether transplanting gut microbes from healthy donors using a treatment called microbiota transplant therapy may have beneficial effects on pulmonary arterial hypertension.
