The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, drug-levels, drug-effects and preliminary anti-tumor activity of DF6002 alone and in combination with Nivolumab in participants with advanced solid tumors. Read Less

Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a neurogenetic disorder caused by a loss or mutation in the survival motor neuron 1 gene (SMN1) on chromosome 5q13, which leads to reduced SMN protein levels and a selective dysfunction of motor neurons. SMA is an autosomal recessive, early childhood disease with an incidence of 1:10,000 live births. SMA is the leading cause of infant mortality due to genetic diseases. Until recently, the mainstay of treatment for these patients was supportive medical care. However, advances in medical treatment focusing on gene replacement, gene enhancement, motor neuron protection and muscle enhancement is likely to change the management and prognosis of these patients in the future. The purpose of this registry is to assess the long term outcomes of patients with SMA in the context of advances in treatment options. Read Less

Half or nearly half of college students with prescriptions divert their stimulant medication, and a similarly high percentage misuse their medication or use someone else's prescription. Diversion may lead students to go without needed medication to mitigate their symptoms, increasing their risk for unintentional injuries and substance use. Further, diversion perpetuates the non-medical use of prescription stimulants (NMUPS), which has become increasingly common among college students. Diversion also perpetuates medical misuse of stimulants among students with prescriptions, which is associated with poorer attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (AD/HD) symptom management and may increase the risk for addictive disorders. There are no evidence-based interventions targeting diversion of stimulants in college students. Being approached for one's medication is a key risk factor for diversion, as is medication non-adherence and believing NMUPS and diversion are more prevalent than they are. Accordingly, in this multi-site study, the investigators will conduct a randomized, controlled trial of 300 college-attending adults with current stimulant prescriptions to examine the preliminary efficacy and feasibility of a single-session, computer-based simulation intervention (with two booster sessions) to prevent prescription stimulant diversion and medication misuse and compare it to a placebo condition. The intervention, which is grounded in social learning theory and the theory of planned behavior uniquely engages students in interactive discussions with virtual humans to (a) learn about the actual prevalence of NMUPS and diversion and their related risks, (b) practice using refusal strategies when approached for their medication in high-risk situations, and (c) understand how to effectively communicate with prescribers and avoid medication misuse. The primary aims are to determine if the intervention reduces diversion, intentions to divert, and medication misuse, and to assess user satisfaction with the intervention. The secondary aims are to examine change in potential mechanisms of action targeted in the intervention, such as self-efficacy to resist diversion, knowledge about diversion and NMUPS, use of behavioral strategies to resist requests for one's medication, and prescriber communication. If effective, the intervention could be readily and widely disseminated to college counseling centers, psychiatrists, pediatricians, and other prescribers. Read Less

The SHIELD (Screening for High Frequency Malignant Disease) study is a prospective, observational, multi-site basket design trial without randomization. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of a blood-based GuardantLUNAR-2 test to detect high frequency cancer in screen-relevant populations. Read Less

This randomized, cross-over design, controlled trial will assess the effects of 8 weeks of daily inclusion of 2 whole eggs in the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) eating plan, compared with their exclusion, on cardio-metabolic risk markers and diet quality in hyperlipidemic adults.

RBN-2397 inhibits PARP7, an enzyme that is switched on by cancer stresses, such as the toxins in cigarette smoke. Cancer cells use PARP7 to hide from the immune system by stopping the cell from sending a signal (Type 1 interferon) that tells the immune system that something is wrong and to kill the cell. RBN-2397 has been shown in animal studies to inhibit tumor growth and also shuts down the "don't kill me" signal the tumor is sending to evade the immune system. As a PARP7 inhibitor RBN-2397 is different from drugs inhibiting PARP1, PARP2 and PARP3 enzymes which are approved for the treatment of certain ovarian and breast cancers. The primary purpose of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of orally administered RBN-2397 in patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors. This study will also evaluate the safety and tolerability of RBN-2397, examine the pharmacokinetics (PK) (measure how the body absorbs, breaks down and eliminates RBN-2397) and investigate whether it has antitumor activity in solid tumor cancers.

This study to examines the impact of anifrolumab on disease activity, immune phenotypes, and development of neutralizing antibodies to quadrivalent influenza vaccine in patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). 10 patients with moderately to severely active SLE will be treated with anifrolumab in addition to standard of care lupus treatments and 10 will receive only standard of care medications. All will receive influenza vaccine. Read Less
