Nornicotine in Smokeless Tobacco as a Precursor for Carcinogen Exposure
Smokeless tobacco users who are unable or unwilling to quit tobacco use may be exposed to the potent oral and esophageal carcinogen NNN not only from tobacco itself, but also via its endogenous synthesis from nornicotine. The proposed study will lead to an understanding of the endogenous formation of NNN from nornicotine in humans, and will also investigate the effect of the reduction of nornicotine content in smokeless tobacco on the extent of endogenous NNN formation. The knowledge gained in this study will lead to the development of recommendations for the regulation, or potentially elimination, of nornicotine in smokeless tobacco products in order to minimize exposure to NNN in the users of these products.

Phase II Multi-Institutional Study of Low-Dose (2Gy x 2) Palliative Radiotherapy in the Treatment of Symptomatic Bone metastases from Multiple Myeloma
This is a phase II prospective multi-institutional study. The main study objectives are: 1) To determine whether radiation treatment, with a total dose of 4 Gy, delivered over two days (2 fractions) to a painful myeloma bone lesion achieves patient-reported pain reduction comparable to historical controls at 4 weeks. 2) To assess quality of life in patients treated with 4Gy to painful myeloma bone lesions. 3) To quantify analgesia use/reduction following 4Gy to a painful myeloma bone lesion. All opioid analgesia use will be converted into morphine equivalent in order to compare across the entire population. 4) To measure time to pain relief and duration of pain relief with 4Gy. 5) To assess pain relief in patients with more than 1 index lesion.

Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Topiramate for Weight Loss in Youth: PHARMATOP (PHARMATOP)
Pediatric severe obesity is the fastest growing obesity category in the United States, and anti-obesity pharmacotherapies are promising adjuncts to lifestyle modification (LSM) for the treatment of this disease. While anti-obesity pharmacotherapies have overall been associated with weight loss, there is substantial variability in their individual-level effectiveness. While some patients lose a significant amount of weight with anti-obesity pharmacotherapies, others lose little or even gain weight. Due to this well-recognized variability in individual-level response, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has recognized the importance of using precision medicine approaches in order to optimize treatments for pediatric severe obesity. Pharmacometrics, which uses mathematical models to study medication dose-exposure (e.g., blood drug concentrations)-response relationships, is an emerging science that can help determine optimal dosing regimens based upon patient-specific characteristics. Pharmacometrics quantitates the interplay between pharmacokinetics (PK; drug dose-exposure associations) and pharmacodynamics (PD; drug exposure-response associations). Population PK (popPK), a type of PK, can be used to quantitate variability in drug exposure among individuals in order to help inform recommendations on therapeutic individualization (i.e., through tailored dosing). In this study, we will use popPK/PD modeling to characterize associations between anti-obesity pharmacotherapy dose, exposure, and changes in weight and weight-related outcomes in youth with severe obesity. This study will focus on youth with obesity and will utilize the medication, Topiramate. Mathematical models will be used to study topiramate dose-exposure to examine how these models might be used to tailor dosing in a very patient-specific manner to help and optimize weight loss results.

Measurement of Upper Aerodigestive Tract Pressures During Phonation
The purpose of this pilot research study is to test whether a tool called “High-Resolution Manometry” can diagnose laryngeal dystonia (also known as spasmodic dysphonia) and measure how well treatment works. High-Resolution Manometry measures pressures from a small catheter that is passed from your nose into your throat. We believe that pressures in the throat might be different for people with laryngeal dystonia than for people without laryngeal dystonia, or with other types of voice disorders. If we can diagnose laryngeal dystonia shortly after symptoms start, we can get patients the treatment they need sooner.

Diabetes RElated to Acute pancreatitis and its Mechanisms (DREAM) (DREAM)
The purpose of this research study is to find out how many people with acute pancreatitis develop diabetes. Risk factors for diabetes and the types of diabetes that occur after acute pancreatitis will also be studied. A small number of people who already had diabetes before their acute pancreatitis attack will be enrolled for comparison. Diabetes is a known complication of acute pancreatitis. Diabetes can last a few weeks after acute pancreatitis and get better. Diabetes may not improve after acute pancreatitis. It can also appear a year or more after acute pancreatitis. Little data is available on diabetes after acute pancreatitis. This study will help us better understand diabetes after acute pancreatitis and who is at increased risk of developing it, as well as the different types of diabetes. We are asking participants to take part in this research study who have recently had an acute pancreatitis attack. Participants may be on this study for up to 5 years. There is a screening/enrollment visit, a metabolic visit and 5 year follow-up period. If you had diabetes before your acute pancreatitis attack, your study participation will end after the enrollment visit. If you did not have diabetes before your acute pancreatitis attack, you will return to the clinic for up to 6 more visits. An additional two visits can be done either at the clinic or by phone. If you are diagnosed with diabetes during the follow-up period, you will be asked to come in for an additional visit.

Testing bone marrow and blood from patients with leukemia that has come back after treatment or is difficult to treat may provide information about the patient's leukemia that is important when deciding how to best treat it, and may help doctors find better ways to diagnose and treat leukemia in children, adolescents, and young adults (0-<22 years old).
COCOA (COCOA-PAD II)
Among people with peripheral artery disease (PAD) age 55 and older, we will test the hypothesis that PAD participants randomized to cocoa flavanols will have greater improvement or less decline in six-minute walk distance at six-month follow-up, compared to those randomized to placebo. We will randomize 190 participants (32 in Minnesota) with PAD age 55 and older to one of two groups for six months: cocoa flavanols vs placebo. Our primary outcome is change in six-minute walk distance at six-month follow-up. Secondary outcomes are six-month change in maximal treadmill walking distance, Actigraph-measured physical activity, whole body oxygen consumption, measures of nitric oxide (brachial artery flow-mediated dilation (FMD)), calf muscle endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) and phosphorylated eNOS, calf muscle perfusion (measured by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)) and calf muscle characteristics (measured by calf muscle biopsy). To achieve our specific aims, we will randomize 190 participants age 55 and older with PAD to one of two groups: cocoa flavanols vs placebo. Participants will be followed for seven months.
