The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of lepodisiran in reducing cardiovascular risk in participants with high lipoprotein(a) who have cardiovascular disease or are at risk of a heart attack or stroke. The study drug will be administered subcutaneously (SC) (under the skin). Approximately 1700 additional participants will be enrolled in an addendum to explore Lp(a) lowering with an alternative dosing schema. Read Less

This is a Phase III, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicentre, international study assessing the efficacy and safety of durvalumab (MEDI4736) and domvanalimab (AB154) compared with durvalumab plus placebo in adults with locally advanced (Stage III), unresectable NSCLC whose disease has not progressed following definitive platinum-based cCRT.

The study is being done to see if ziltivekimab can be used to treat participants living with heart failure and inflammation. Participants will either get ziltivekimab (active medicine) or placebo (inactive substance that looks like the study medicine but does not contain any medicine). The treatment participants get is decided by chance. Participant's chance of getting ziltivekimab or placebo is the same. Ziltivekimab is not yet approved in any country or region in the world. It is a new medicine that doctors cannot prescribe. The study is expected to last for up to 1 year and 4 months. Read Less

Multicenter, prospective, non randomized, single arm evaluation of patients with overactive bladder (OAB) and/or fecal incontinence (FI) employing the Axonics recharge free SNM System. Read Less

This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of Armour Thyroid treatment compared with synthetic T4 in subjects who have primary hypothyroidism and are currently stabilized (i.e., in-range thyroid-stimulating hormone \[TSH\]) on synthetic T4 treatment. This study will also therefore evaluate the efficacy and safety of dose conversion from synthetic T4 therapy to Armour Thyroid therapy. Read Less

This prospective randomized clinical trial will compare outcomes between patients treated primarily with a prophylactic antibiotic coated nail and those treated with traditional standard of care intramedullary (IM) nailing. Read Less

Management of severe injuries to the heel (displaced intra-articular calcaneus fractures) continues to be a major challenge for orthopedic surgeons. Previous studies have demonstrated poor outcomes, and results show that patients experience long-term pain and decreased quality of life postoperatively. Poor outcomes are driven by pain, in particular, which is linked to post-traumatic subtalar arthritis. Read Less

The primary objective of this study is to compare the progression-free survival (PFS) between sacituzumab govitecan-hziy (SG) versus treatment of physician's choice (TPC) in participants with previously untreated, locally advanced, inoperable or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer whose tumors do not express programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) or in participants previously treated with anti-programmed cell death (ligand or protein) 1 (Anti-PD-(L)1) Agents in the early setting whose tumors do express PD-L1.

This study aims to design, implement, and evaluate a pilot test of a web-based Mindfulness-Based Relapse Prevention (MBRP) continuing care intervention to support individuals with alcohol use disorder (AUD) exiting standard outpatient treatment. Guided by the Centre for eHealth and Wellbeing Research (CeHRes) roadmap, the project follows a structured framework for digital intervention development: (1) contextual inquiry, (2) value specification, (3) design, (4) operationalization, and (5) summative evaluation. Contextual inquiry is defined as gathering information from the intended users and the environment in which the technology will be implemented. The next step, value specification, is defined as the quantification of the values of the key stakeholders, where the user requirements for the technology and the most favorable solutions emerge. This process elaborates on what was discovered in the contextual inquiry step and an analytical hierarchy is conducted to assign quantifiable values to the stakeholders' priorities for the intervention. Design is the step defined as the process of building prototypes of the technology that fit with the values and requirements of the stakeholders, and then testing the prototype in realistic situations. Operationalization is the implementation of the intervention. The final step, summative evaluation, is the assessment of the intervention's impact. The research team plans to conduct a needs assessment (Aim 1a), develop (Aim 1b), implement (Aim 2a), and evaluate (Aim 2b) a pilot test of a web-based MBRP continuing care intervention, named "Renewed Recovery", targeting individuals exiting standard outpatient treatment for alcohol. Aim 1: Design a web-based mindfulness continuing care intervention. Aim 1a: Conduct a community needs assessment. To understand the need for such an intervention, semi-structured qualitative interviews with program administrators (n=3) from partnering substance use treatment facilities will be conducted (contextual inquiry). To better understand the recovery journey after exiting standard outpatient treatment, semi-structured interviews with individuals (n\~10) who have been in treatment more than once will be conducted (contextual inquiry). After interviewing the 2 stakeholder groups, a meeting will be held to determine their list of priorities for this project (value specification). Aim 1b: Develop the intervention website (design). The website for the intervention will be created by creating multiple wireframe iterations and presenting them to the stakeholders to determine the best formatting. The curriculum on the site will be modeled after the original MBRP curriculum. After coming to a consensus on the best version of the website, a usability test will be conducted of a newly created prototype with the same 10 individuals who identified as having been in treatment more than once. A quantitative survey will be employed and a focus groups will be held to assess the usability, equitability, enjoyability, and usefulness of the website. Aim 2: Implement and evaluate the pilot test at partnering treatment facilities. Aim 2a: Implement the pilot test of the web-based MBRP continuing care intervention (operationalization). After altering the intervention based on the usability test, the program will begin to be implemented. 30 people (3 groups of 10) will. Be recruited to participate in the intervention that will be 8 weeks in length (1 module per week, for a total of 8 modules), composed of a self-guided curriculum of text and videos, as well as two zoom sessions to practice meditating as a group. Aim 2b: Evaluate the pilot test to determine process and behavior outcomes (summative evaluation). To measure process outcomes, surveys will be employed asking about the usability, equitability, enjoyability, and usefulness of the website as well as their overall satisfaction with the intervention. Recruitment and retention rates will be another identifier of process outcomes. To measure behavior outcomes, participants will be given a multitude of measures at baseline to measure relapse, anxiety, depression, self-efficacy, coping mechanisms, social support, acceptance, mindfulness, and reactivity to triggers. Analysis of these measures will be done via multilevel modeling. These measures will also be given at the completion of the program and at 3 months after completion. Read Less
