This phase III trial compares memantine to usual treatment in treating patients with primary central nervous system tumors. Memantine may block receptors (parts of nerve cells) in the brain known to contribute to a decline in cognitive function. Giving memantine may make a difference in cognitive function (attention, memory, or other thought processes) in children and adolescents receiving brain radiation therapy to treat a primary central nervous system tumors.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of ozanimod (RPC1063) in achieving and maintaining clinical remission. Ozanimod will be administered orally to pediatric participants with moderate to severe active ulcerative colitis (UC) who have had an inadequate response to conventional therapy. Read Less

Study GMS-PH-001 is a multicenter, open-label, non-randomized study to prospectively evaluate screening strategies of pulmonary hypertension (PH) in patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD). Read Less

This is an observational longitudinal study to determine the natural history and genotype-phenotype correlations of disease causing mutations in Charcot Marie Tooth disease (CMT) type 1B (CMT1B), 2A (CMT2A), 4A (CMT4A), and 4C (CMT4C). The investigators will also be determine the capability of the newly developed CMT Pediatric Scale (CMT Peds scale) and the Minimal Dataset to measure impairment and perform longitudinal measurements in patients with multiple forms of CMT over a five year window Read Less

This project includes two projects. One is looking for new genes that cause Charcot Marie Tooth disease (CMT). The other is looking for genes that do not cause CMT, but may modify the symptoms a person has. Read Less

The primary goal of this project is to develop and test a Charcot Marie Tooth disease (CMT) Pediatric Scale for use in evaluation in natural history CMT study. Read Less

This study will assess the safety and effectiveness of the SAPIEN 3/SAPIEN 3 Ultra transcatheter heart valve (THV) in patients with a failing aortic bioprosthetic valve. Read Less

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of lacosamide (LCM) versus an Active Comparator chosen based on standard of care (StOC) in severe and nonsevere seizure burden (defined as total minutes of electroencephalographic neonatal seizures (ENS) per hour) in neonates with seizures that are not adequately controlled with previous anti-epileptic drug (AED) treatment.

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 primary objective of this study is to assess the effect of early and rapid treprostinil therapy for mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP) reduction to improve right ventricular (RV) function and reverse RV remodeling in participants with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Read Less

The objective of this study is to investigate the hypothesis that delivery at 35 0/7- 35 6/7 weeks in stable patients with gastroschisis is superior to observation and expectant management with a goal of delivery at 38 0/7 - 38 6/7 weeks. To test this hypothesis, we will complete a randomized, prospective, multi-institutional trial across NAFTNet-affiliated institutions. Patients may be enrolled in the study any time prior to 33 weeks, but will be randomized at 33 weeks to delivery at 35 weeks or observation with a goal of 38 weeks. The primary composite outcome will include stillbirth, neonatal death prior to discharge, respiratory morbidity, and need for parenteral nutrition at 30 days. Read Less

The goal of this study is to measure survival rates associated with patients presenting in cardiac arrest based on their electrocardiographic rhythm and their echocardiographic rhythm. Electrocardiographic rhythm is defined as the rhythm on the ECG and echocardiographic rhythm is the rhythm visualized on bedside ultrasound. Specifically, we will categorize patients based on identical rhythms and dichotomous rhythms with an interest in outcomes in the patient group where their echocardiographic and electrographic rhythms do not match. This is important as current ACLS protocols use electrocardiographic rhythms to determine therapy but limited research implies that therapeutic decisions based on echocardiographic rhythm may produce increased survival. This study will occur during emergency department resuscitation of patients presenting in cardiac arrest. Patients presenting to the emergency department after cardiac arrest will undergo standard resuscitation based on ACLS protocols. Ultrasound imaging will be performed as soon as possible after the patient arrives and digitally recorded, as is currently the standard of care at the institute. Simultaneous recording of the ECG rhythm strip will occur as well. This will be repeated for as many pauses in CPR as is warranted. Each site will record data based on the Utstein nomenclature including patient demographics, arrest details and survival outcomes. Ultrasound images and ECG recordings will be de-identified and submitted to a central database. Data will be uploaded into a centralized database. Statistical analysis will analyze outcomes based on echocardiographic and sonographic findings. Our aim is to measure the survival benefit of treating out of hospital cardiac arrest using echocardiographic rhythm instead of electrocardiographic rhythm. Read Less
