This research is being done to better understand why people develop a type of heart failure where the heart contracts normally but does not relax well. By comparing levels of chemicals in the blood that are secreted by the body in subjects with normal hearts and in subjects with abnormal relaxation, we hope to gain a better understanding of why heart failure occurs.

The purpose of this study is to learn about the safety and efficacy of PC945 when given in combination with the antifungal therapy that is normally given for this condition, also known as the standard of care (SoC). This study will also assess how PC945 is processed in the body (e.g., distributed, transformed, and removed) by measuring the levels of PC945 in your blood and lungs; this is called pharmacokinetics (PK).

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant in persons with an inherited metabolic disorder or osteopetrosis and if it is effective in reducing or slowing the symptoms associated with the genetic error. The study uses a chemotherapy conditioning regimen that prepares the body to accept the donor hematopoietic cells.

The main purpose of this the study is to find out if a new investigational drug RYZ101 more effectively treats your cancer than the standard therapy, and to see if it is safe, tolerable, and to learn the pharmacokinetics (PK).

Levosimendan has not been approved by the FDA to treat people who have PH-HFpEF or approved to be taken by mouth (orally). In this study, we will measure the amount of levosimendan in blood at various times and evaluate the change in participants 6-Minute Walk Distance.

The current study is designed to determine which strategy (regular screening or screening only in the presence of symptoms) is more effective in preventing heart attacks in kidney transplant candidates. Another goal of the study is to determine whether biomarker tests are able to predict the need for regular CAD screening tests.

We have determined that the microbes (bacteria) in the colon can play a role in causing and preventing complications of colon surgery. While the surgical bowel prep before surgery eliminates the harmful bacteria, it also eliminates the beneficial bacteria that aid wound healing. The purpose of this study is to determine if we can restore the presence of good bacteria (also known as ‘intestinal microbiota’) in the colon by transplanting them from a healthy donor.

The purpose of this study is to understand if a drug called baricitinib can help with thinking and memory problems after COVID-19 infection for people suffering with Long COVID. Some people have thinking and memory problems along with possible difficulty breathing, a racing heart, dizziness, and/or fatigue after COVID-19 called Long COVID. This includes things like having a hard time remembering people’s names, managing money, or keeping a job. For some patients, these issues may last several years. We still do not understand why these problems happen and why they last longer in some people. This study will look at the changes in brain function, heart function, and daily activities after taking baricitinib or placebo for people who experience Long COVID.

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.

Rhabdomyosarcoma is a type of cancer that occurs in the soft tissues in the body. This phase III trial aims to maintain excellent outcomes in patients with very low risk rhabdomyosarcoma (VLR-RMS) while decreasing the burden of therapy using treatment with 24 weeks of vincristine and dactinomycin (VA) and examines the use of centralized molecular risk stratification in the treatment of rhabdomyosarcoma. Another aim of the study it to find out how well patients with low risk rhabdomyosarcoma (LR-RMS) respond to standard chemotherapy when patients with VLR-RMS and patients who have rhabdomyosarcoma with DNA mutations get separate treatment. Finally, this study examines the effect of therapy intensification in patients who have RMS cancer with DNA mutations to see if their outcomes can be improved.

Skytrofa is approved in the U.S. for sale and use in children with growth hormone deficiency (GHD). This study is being done to find out how safe and useful Skytrofa is for long-term treatment. A child’s care will follow the normal treatment practices at the clinic. There is no new treatment or medicine involved and no additional visits will be performed.

Balance and walking problems in patients with Parkinson’s Disease do not respond well to the typical medication or surgical treatments. This research study uses five small wearable devices that attach to clothing and can measure the body’s location while performing walking tests, balance tests, and normal daily activities. By comparing patients with Parkinson’s Disease to people of similar age without Parkinson’s Disease, we hope to learn important differences relevant to the walking and balance problems in Parkinson’s Disease

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.

The purpose of this study is to test whether the investigational drug, tegoprubart, in combination with the same standard immunosuppressive medicines (anti-thymocyte globulin, corticosteroids, and mycophenolate) is safe, tolerable and effective compared to tacrolimus. The study will specifically look at the function of the implanted kidney in the tegoprubart group compared to the tacrolimus group and will also assess how well tegoprubart prevents diabetes and prevents rejection.

The purpose of this research study is to see whether an experimental drug, PUL-042 Inhalation Solution (PUL-042), is effective in reducing the severity of lung infections in patients with hematologic malignancies and recipients of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation with viral infections due to PIV, hMPV, or RSV. Participants will receive PUL-042 or a placebo (an inactive agent that appears identical to PUL-042) through a nebulizer. This is a machine that uses a small motor to turn liquid into a mist, like a humidifier, so you can breathe the drug into your lungs. Participants will receive the experimental drug, PUL-042, or a placebo 3 times over a 6-day period.

This study tests whether the study drug, a T-cell engager therapy engineered to have fewer off-target effects by increasing its specificity to tumor cells, is safe and tolerable in subjects with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) The study will also assess the potential Phase 2 dose regimens and determine a recommended Phase 2 dose.

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 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).

We are recruiting only healthy participants who do not have REM sleep behavior disorder. The information gained from this study will help the investigators understand more about REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD), and the possible underlying neurologic disorders that can cause RBD.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate if a partial enteral nutrition diet, with a pea protein plant-based oral nutrition supplement (ONS; Kate Farms Peptide 1.5), combined with the Inflammatory bowel disease - Anti-Inflammatory Diet (IBD-AID) improves the nutritional intake of adult patients experiencing a CD flare initiating immunologic therapy compared to standard of care. Standard of care for patients experiencing a CD flare is commonly characterized by prescription of a low fiber diet and either lack of oral nutrition supplementation or use of an animal protein based supplement.

We want to explore whether it is possible for adults without symptoms of heart disease to perform a short, high intensity exercise routine in a clinic setting in order to measure maximum heart rate and heart rate recovery. If this method is successful, it could be used by patients and clinicians to estimate and track heart health over time.

This trial tests the safety, side effects, best dose, and effectiveness of the combination of ipatasertib with megestrol acetate to megestrol acetate alone in women who have endometrial cancer that has come back (recurrent) or has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Ipatasertib may stop the growth of tumor cells and may kill them by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Megestrol acetate lowers the amount of estrogen and also blocks the use of estrogen made by the body. This may help stop the growth of tumor cells that need estrogen to grow. The combination of ipatasertib and megestrol acetate may be more effective in treating endometrial cancer than megestrol acetate alone.

PR001A is designed to deliver a normal GBA1 gene copy into the body to increase the activity of GCase, which is low in Type 2 Gaucher Disease (GD2) patients. The new GBA1 gene will remain a child’s body cells for many years and possibly for the rest of their life. A participant will need one surgery during which the study drug will be given and will stay in the hospital for at least 48 hours following the surgery.

There are 2 phases to this clinical research study: Phase 1 (dose escalation) and Phase 2 (dose expansion). The goal of Phase 1 is to find the recommended dose of the study drug IDP-023 that can be given alone (referred to as a “monotherapy”), with or without interleukin-2 (IL-2) and in combination with another anti-cancer drug, either daratumumab in subjects with relapsed/refractory MM or rituximab in subjects with relapsed/refractory NHL. The goal of Phase 2 is to learn if the recommended dose of IDP-023 found in Phase 1 with or without IL-2 can help to control advanced MM or NHL when given in combination with daratumumab or rituximab, respectively.

This purpose of this study is to identify a safe dose level for the study drug, E7777, when given with standard tisagenlecleucel therapy (also known by its brand name, Kymriah, is an immunotherapy that is made from the participants own blood cells) in participants with Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL). Up to three dose levels of E7777 will be tested.

CGD disorders are a group of diseases that cause the immune system to function abnormally, leading to infections, autoimmunity and/or inflammation that can begin early in life. CGD is usually caused by changes in certain genes in DNA. Researchers are trying to learn what types of medical problems patients with CGD have and how these respond to treatment, including bone marrow transplantation and gene therapy. Researchers also want to learn which genes cause CGD and how specific gene abnormalities lead to medical problems.

The purpose of this study is to see how accurately orthopaedic surgeons predict outcomes for people who have an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. Patients will be asked to complete post-surgery surveys about occurrence of side effects, return to activity, reoperation, and satisfaction with the surgery at 4 months, 2 years, and 5 years.
