Spinal cord injury (SCI) disrupts neural pathways to respiratory motor neurons, diminishing breathing capacity and airway defense (e.g., cough). Indeed, respiratory impairment is a leading cause of infection, re-hospitalization and death after SCI. There is a critical need for new strategies to restore breathing ability and airway defense in people with SCI. Acute intermittent hypoxia (AIH) - repetitive exposure to brief episodes of low inspired oxygen - is a promising strategy to restore breathing capacity by promoting spinal neuroplasticity. Exciting outcomes in \>12 SCI trials completed to date demonstrate that AIH improves human respiratory and limb function. Unfortunately, \~40% of individuals exhibit minimal response to AIH, making it essential to 1) optimize AIH protocols to maximize functional benefits; and 2) identify genetic biomarkers distinguishing those most/least likely to benefit from AIH-based treatments. The purpose of the pilot study, to be conducted in a small sample of participants with sub-acute SCI (1 to 6 months post injury), is to preliminarily compare the immediate effects of two intermittent hypoxia protocols. Since AIH-induced plasticity may be induced via serotonin or adenosine-driven mechanisms and these pathways compete and inhibit each other, each protocol favors a distinct mechanistic pathway. The long-term objective is to test the hypothesis that a longer duration (i.e., augmented) hypoxia protocol, favoring adenosine mechanisms, enhances respiratory motor plasticity more than an AIH protocol targeting serotonin mechanisms (low O2 + CO2) in people with sub-acute SCI. Since an individual's genetics can influence the response to rehabilitation, investigators are also preliminarily investigating how certain genes are related to breathing changes after these treatments. Data acquired through this pilot study will be used to inform a larger, more definitive clinical trial and will contribute to estimations of the magnitude and direction of effects. Read Less

This phase III trial compares three-drug induction regimens followed by double-or single-drug maintenance therapy for the treatment of newly diagnosed multiple myeloma in patients who are not receiving a stem cell transplant and are considered frail or intermediate-fit based on age, comorbidities, and functional status. Treatment for multiple myeloma includes initial treatment (induction) which is the first treatment a patient receives for cancer followed by ongoing treatment (maintenance) which is given after initial treatment to help keep the cancer from coming back. There are three combinations of four different drugs being studied. Bortezomib is one of the drugs that may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Lenalidomide works by helping bone marrow to produce normal blood cells and killing cancer cells. Anti-inflammatory drugs, such as dexamethasone, lower the body's immune response and are used with other drugs in the treatment of some types of cancer. Daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Patients receive 1 of 3 combinations of these drugs for treatment to determine which combination of study drugs works better to shrink and control multiple myeloma. Read Less

The Esprit BTK PAS is a prospective, single-arm, multi-center observational study to assess the continued safety and effectiveness of the Esprit™ BTK Everolimus Eluting Resorbable Scaffold System under commercial use, in patients with diseased infrapopliteal lesions causing CLTI (Chronic Limb-Threatening Ischemia) in a real-world setting. The clinical investigation will be conducted at up to 50 sites in the United States (US) and additional sites may be added outside of the US (OUS). Approximately 200 patients with a minimum of 50% of patients in the US will be registered in the clinical investigation. Read Less

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the effectiveness of Reduced Dose Post-Transplant Cyclophosphamide (PTCy) in patients with hematologic malignancies after receiving an HLA-Mismatched Unrelated Donor (MMUD) . The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: * Does a reduced dose of PTCy reduce the occurrence of infections in the first 100 days after transplant? * Does a reduced dose of PTCy maintain the same level of protection against Graft Versus Host Disease (GvHD) as the standard dose of PTCy?

BLOCK-SAH is a phase II, multicenter, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled clinical trial with a sequential parallel comparison design (SPCD) of bilateral pterygopalatine fossa (PPF) injections with 20mg ropivacaine + 4mg dexamethasone (active, PPF-block) compared to saline (placebo) for headache in survivors of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), while monitoring intracranial arterial mean flow velocities with transcranial Doppler (TCD) peri-intervention (intervention = PPF-injections: active or placebo) Read Less

Phase 3b, Randomized, Double-blind, 8-week, Placebo-controlled Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Centanafadine Once Daily Extended-release Capsules for the Treatment of Adults with Attention-deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder and Comorbid Anxiety Read Less

50 children/adolescents (ages 6 to \<18yrs) with T1D in suboptimal control (HbA1c≥8.0%) and lower SES (below 200% poverty line) on insulin therapy (either injections or open-loop pumps) will be recruited at Nemours \~ 1/3 each AA, Hispanic/Latino, non-Hispanic whites. All families that qualify and agree to transition to closed-loop technologies will be recruited to allow data to be gathered before and after use of devices. They will go through the process of approval with the assistance of an insurance navigator in clinic. Those not a CGM will be prescribed one as well. Diabetes care will be 'real life', devices will be prescribed, and care per clinic routine with periodic device downloads. Principal outcome, time-in-range, will be analyzed at 3-months compared to baseline, each participant their own control. Secondary outcomes including HbA1c, other glucose metrics and questionnaires related to use of technology and diabetes distress will be also analyzed. All outcomes will also be collected at 6-months. Results could have important and fast applicability to the field and help better inform decision makers, including payers, clinicians, and patients and families and could serve to decrease health care disparities in this needy population.
