The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of budesonide/albuterol metered-dose inhaler (BDA MDI) with albuterol sulfate metered-dose inhaler (AS MDI), both administered as needed, on the annualized rate of severe asthma exacerbations in adolescents with a documented clinical diagnosis of asthma and at least one severe exacerbation in the prior year.

This is a phase 1 study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and antitumor activity of FT825 (also known as ONO-8250) with or without monoclonal antibody therapy following chemotherapy in participants with advanced human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive or other advanced solid tumors. The study will consist of a dose-escalation stage, followed by an expansion stage to further evaluate the safety and activity of FT825 in indication-specific cohorts. Read Less

This phase II clinical trial tests how well pembrolizumab plus enfortumab vedotin prior to and after radical nephroureterectomy works in treating patients with high-risk upper tract urothelial cancer. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Enfortumab vedotin (EV) is a monoclonal antibody, enfortumab, linked to an anticancer drug called vedotin. It works by helping the immune system to slow or stop the growth of cancer cells. Enfortumab attaches to a protein called nectin-4 on cancer cells in a targeted way and delivers vedotin to kill them. It is a type of antibody-drug conjugate. Radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) is the surgical removal of a kidney and its ureter. Giving pembrolizumab plus enfortumab vedotin before surgery may make the tumor smaller and may reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed and giving pembrolizumab after surgery may kill any remaining cancer cells.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about HT-001 Topical Gel for treatment of EGFR inhibitor-induced skin toxicities. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Determine the therapeutic effect of HT-001 for treatment of patients who develop acneiform rash undergoing Epidermal Growth Factor inhibitor (EGFRI) therapy using the acneiform rash investigator's global assessment scale \[ARIGA\] * Evaluate the safety of HT-001 during treatment Participants will apply HT-001 Gel once per day for 6 weeks, during which the effect on treating acneiform rash or other skin disorders induced by EGFRI therapy will be evaluated using different assessment tools to measure severity of rash, pain, and itching (pruritus), as well as the change in quality of life. The study will be completed in 2 periods: the first period is open-label (unblinded) and all patients will receive HT-001 topical gel with the active ingredient; the second period is blinded and patients will be randomized to receive one of three concentrations of HT-001 or placebo. Researchers will compare HT-001 to the placebo in the second period to see if HT-001 provides a significant treatment effect. Read Less

The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the Thoraflex Hybrid device alone and in combination with the RelayPro NBS stent-graft in the treatment of aortic disease affecting the aortic arch and descending aorta with or without involvement of the ascending aorta. Patients who undergo treatment with the Thoraflex Hybrid device with or without extension with a RelayPro NBS stent-graft will be eligible for enrolment and study activities and follow-up regime will follow standard care at each participating site. Participant involvement in the study will last for a total of 10 years from the point at which the Thoraflex Hybrid device is placed. Read Less

The trial will evaluate efficacy, safety and tolerability of ianalumab compared to placebo, given as monthly subcutaneous (s.c.) injection on top of standard-of-care (SoC) treatment in participants with active systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Read Less

This randomized phase II trial studies how well chemotherapy before surgery and radiation therapy works compared to surgery and radiation therapy alone in treating patients with nasal and paranasal sinus cancer that can be removed by surgery. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel, cisplatin, and carboplatin work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Giving chemotherapy before surgery and radiation therapy may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed and treated with radiation. Read Less

The overall objective of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of AAV2-hAADC delivered to the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc) and ventral tegmental area (VTA) in children with aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) deficiency. Read Less

Globally, populations are aging thereby increasing healthcare burden, overall cognitive impairment, and dementia including Alzheimers diseases (AD). The lack of effective treatments makes it essential to develop new strategies for healthy cognitive aging, including interventions to slow or prevent cognitive decline. A traditional Mediterranean diet, rich in polyphenols (PPs), may prevent or delay the onset of cognitive dysfunction in older adults, preserving healthy brain structure and function, and lowering the risk of AD. These effects, mediated in part by gut microbiome-derived PP metabolites, highlight the role alterations in the brain-gut microbiome system play in neurodegeneration. Moreover, high levels of circulating phenyl-y-valerolactones, neuroprotective compounds, exclusively produced by gut microbiota from flavan-3-ol-rich foods (e.g., cocoa, tea, berries) are associated with delaying the onset of cognitive dysfunction in older adults. Intake of such PPs can also change gut microbial composition and function, altering the physiology of the hosts secondary bile acid (BA) pool, affecting regulatory and signaling functions in the brain as well as cognitive decline and AD. The investigators hypothesize that, in older adults with enhanced AD risk, dietary intake of PPs maintains healthier brain features and cognitive function, and that this beneficial effect is mediated by gut microbiota metabolites of PPs and BAs. In this multi-PI application by leaders in the field of brain-gut microbiome interactions, the investigators will conduct a year-long, multi-center, randomized double-blind placebo-controlled study in 300 older adults in the United States (validation sample of 100 from Northern Ireland) who are at enhanced risk of developing AD. Ultimately, the investigators will establish the protective effects of regular dietary PP intake on cognitive function and on brain-gut microbiome interactions, ideally allowing the development of effective dietary regimes to prevent of delay the onset of AD in at-risk elderly, thereby reducing cognitive decline and healthcare costs. Participants will be asked to provide information about their diet, mood, and behaviors via food diaries, physical body measures (e.g. height, weight, etc.), and online questionnaires collected before each in-clinic appointment, as well as monthly online questionnaires. MR imaging will be collected on participants to assess neurocognitive changes as a result of the supplement. Participants will be asked to provide both stool and blood samples. Participants will be randomly assigned to either the Juice Plus+ intervention group or the placebo treatment group and then asked to take their respective supplement 4 pills twice a day. All participants will be asked to come in for 4 in-clinic appointments, including 3 brain MRI scans and 3 cognitive testing appointments, collect 3 stool samples with corresponding diet diaries, and provide 3 blood samples over the course of 12 months. Participants will also meet with a nutritionist 3 times over the 12 months to discuss diet to ensure study eligibility and any questions about the supplement. Read Less
