The proposed of this randomized, double blinded, placebo-controlled study is to assess the effect of SAMe compared to placebo in patients with alcoholic cirrhosis Child Class A and B. The primary objective of the study is to test relationship between SAMe (S-adenosylmethionine) supplement on liver function. The hypothesis is that SAMe supplement will improve liver function in patients with alcoholic liver disease. The improvement in liver function will lead to the reduction in all-cause mortality in patients with alcoholic cirrhosis in those who receive SAMe supplement when compared to those receiving placebo.

The goal of this clinical trial is to explore how working a 4-day schedule impacts nurse manager wellbeing and job performance. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Do those working 4-days have improved wellbeing with reduced levels of burnout and work/family conflict when compared to those in the control group? * Do levels of sleep, heart rate variability, and physical activity significantly differ between those working the 4-day schedule change and those in the control group? * Are nurse manager satisfaction, patient satisfaction, and patient quality outcomes different among those working the 4-day schedule change and those in the control group? Researchers will compare those working the 4-day schedule change to those working the standard 5-day schedule to determine causality between the intervention and the outcomes. Participants will: * Complete an initial visit to learn about the study. * Begin wearing an OURA ring, which will collect data on physical activity, sleep, and heart rate variability. They will need to download the Oura Ring app on their phone and log in weekly to sync data so that the researchers may access it. * Complete the first survey on the online REDCap platform (baseline). * Begin the work schedule that was assigned to them. * Clock in and out of work each shift. * Take the follow-up survey online (month 3). * Take the final survey online (month 6).

This is a Phase 1/2, multi-center, open-label basket study designed to evaluate the safety and anti-tumor activity of IDE196 in patients with solid tumors harboring GNAQ or GNA11 (GNAQ/11) mutations or PRKC fusions, including metastatic uveal melanoma (MUM), cutaneous melanoma, colorectal cancer, and other solid tumors. Phase 1 (dose escalation - monotherapy) will assess safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of IDE196 via standard dose escalation scheme and determine the recommended Phase 2 dose. Safety and anti-tumor activity will be assessed in the Phase 2 (dose expansion) part of the study. Phase 1 (dose escalation - binimetib combination) will assess safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of IDE196 and binimetinib via standard dose escalation scheme and determine the recommended Phase 2 dose. Safety and anti-tumor activity will be assessed in the Phase 2 (dose expansion) part of the study. Phase 1 (dose escalation - crizotinib combination) will assess safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of IDE196 and crizotinib via standard dose escalation scheme and determine the recommended Phase 2 dose. Safety and anti-tumor activity will be assessed in the Phase 2 (dose expansion) part of the study. Evaluation of safety and efficacy across multiple doses may be explored in the dose optimization part of the study. Crizotinib monotherapy with crossover to combination cohort may be assessed for safety and to show the contribution of each study drug to anti-tumor activity. As of Protocol Amendment 10, Phase 1, Phase 2 dose expansion in IDE196 monotherapy, and Phase 2 dose expansion of IDE196 in combination with binimetinib have been fully enrolled. There were no patients enrolled in the crizotinib monotherapy cohorts. Read Less

The objective of this study is to collect information on patients with cardiomyopathy (CM) due to mutations in the MYBPC3 gene, to evaluate their disease course, burden of illness, risk factors for this disease, and the quality of life (QoL). This study will also collect information on treatments, procedures and outcome in infants and children up to 18 yrs who have this mutation. Read Less

This study compares the efficacy of Tamibarotene in combination with azacitidine to azacitidine in combination with placebo in participants who are Retinoic Acid Receptor Alpha (RARA) positive, and newly diagnosed with higher-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (HR-MDS), and who have not received treatment for this diagnosis. The primary goal of the study is to compare the complete remission rate between the two treatment arms. Read Less

The EPPIC (Easing Pelvic Pain Interventions Clinical Research Program) study evaluates an ultra-brief, 4 session cognitive behavioral pain treatment transdiagnostic in design for urologic chronic pain syndrome (UCPPS) with clinical and practical advantages over existing behavioral therapies whose length and focus limits their adoption by clinicians and coverage for mechanistically similar comorbidities. A theoretically informed, practical, empirically grounded approach will systematically unpack CBT's working mechanisms, clarify for whom it works, ease dissemination, appeal to patients, providers, payers, and policy makers in the COVID-19 era favoring low resource intensity treatments, and reduce cost and inefficiencies associated with high intensity therapies whose complexity, length, and scarcity restricts uptake and impact.

The goal of this observational study is to identify candidate biomarkers in individuals with Rett Syndrome (RTT). The main questions it aims to answer are: * Do these biomarkers change during clinical changes in individuals with RTT? * Are biomarkers stable over time in clinically stable individuals? * Do these biomarkers correlate with severity of RTT? Participants will be asked to undergo an electroencephalogram (EEG) with measurements of Evoked Potentials (EP) to measure electrical activity in the brain. Researchers will compare findings in individuals with RTT to those in typically developing individuals to see if there are differences between the two groups. Read Less

This clinical trial will test the safety and efficacy of combining trametinib and azacitidine in patients with juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML). Newly diagnosed lower-risk JMML patients will receive trametinib and azacitidine. High-risk JMML patients will receive trametinib, azacitidine, fludarabine, and cytarabine. Read Less

There is a well-documented association between androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) and cardiovascular morbidity. A majority of men on ADT gain weight contributing to an increase in cardiovascular risk factors (CVRFs) and cardiovascular morbidity. Dietary intervention combined with exercise have shown success in reducing weight/fat mass and improving cardiovascular risk factors (CVRF). There is little data on whether African American men would respond to diet and exercise interventions differently from non-Hispanic white men. We will conduct a pilot, controlled two-phase intervention study stratified by race to investigate the following objectives: 1. Compare effect of a hypocaloric, anti-inflammatory diet on changes in fat mass between African- American vs non-Hispanic white men with metastatic prostate cancer on ADT therapy. 2. Compare effect of a hypocaloric, anti-inflammatory diet on changes in cardiovascular risk factors (body weight, lean body mass, waist-to-height ratio, blood pressure, lipids and HbA1C) and inflammatory markers (hs-CRP and cytokines) between African-American vs non-Hispanic white men with metastatic prostate cancer on ADT therapy. 3. Compare effect of a hypocaloric, anti-inflammatory diet on changes in cancer-related fatigue and quality of life between African-American vs non-Hispanic white men with metastatic prostate cancer on ADT therapy. We will enroll 35 African American and 35 non-Hispanic white men with prostate cancer undergoing ADT therapy. In phase 1, after baseline assessment, men will consume their habitual diet and continue their habitual activity level for 3 months. During phase 2, participants will be instructed to consume a hypocaloric (-500 kcal), anti- inflammatory diet and walk for 1 hour on 3 days per week for 3 months. At baseline, after phase 1 and 2 primary outcome (fat mass) and secondary outcomes (CVRF and inflammatory markers) and tertiary outcomes (cancer-related fatigue and quality of life) will be determined.
