The main purpose of this study is to create a longitudinal cohort of those with Sickle Cell Trait (SCT) to better understand the hematologic phenotype for those that carry HbS, assess for differences in those with varying quantities of HbS and assess for potential clinical complications of SCT.

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 main aim of this study is to learn whether vedolizumab and upadacitinib given together (also called dual targeted therapy or DTT) reduces bowel inflammation and ulcers in the bowel compared to vedolizumab only (also called monotherapy) in adults with moderately or severely active Crohn's Disease (CD) after 12 weeks of treatment. Other aims are to learn how safe and effective DTT is compared to monotherapy for these participants. All participants will receive DTT (either vedolizumab and upadacitinib or vedolizumab and placebo) for 12 weeks. Participants responding to the treatment will then receive vedolizumab only (monotherapy) for an additional 40 weeks. During the study, participants will visit their study clinic 15 times. Read Less

TReatment for ImmUne Mediated PathopHysiology (TRIUMPH) is a multi-center, three arm, randomized, controlled trial of immunosuppressive therapy for children with acute liver failure. The study will determine if suppressing inflammatory responses with either corticosteroids or equine anti-thymocyte globulin therapy improves survival for children with this rare, life-threatening condition.

The goal of this observational study is to learn about the performance of the TEG6s in normal pediatric patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: What are the normal TEG 6S lab results in normal pediatric patients and how do they compare to existing published reference ranges. Participants and their guardians will be asked to submit a small amount of blood at the beginning of an elective operation for analysis in the TEG 6s machine. Read Less

"Afib" is a common irregular heartbeat. Afib can cause stroke, blood clots, dementia and death. Medicines used to treat Afib often do not work well and can cause serious side effects. Clinicians need medicines that work better for Afib. Medicines for Afib work by blocking a current in the heart called a potassium current. There is a newer potassium current called IKas that can contribute to Afib. A medicine called ondansetron is used to keep people with cancer from getting sick to their stomach and throwing up. The investigators have found that ondansetron blocks IKas, and the investigators think that this means that ondansetron may work well to treat Afib. So, in this study the investigators want to find out if ondansetron can: 1) Reduce the amount of time that people have Afib, and 2) Slow down the heart rate when people have Afib. The investigators will study 80 people who are scheduled to have an AF ablation. Several weeks prior to undergoing the ablation procedure, these AF patients will be assigned by chance (like flipping a coin) to one of two groups: ondansetron 8 mg by mouth twice daily or a sugar pill (placebo), which they will take for 28 days. The people in the study will not know whether they are receiving ondansetron or placebo. The investigators will find out if ondansetron reduces the percentage of time that people are in Afib. Also, the investigators will find out if ondansetron slows the heart rate while people are having Afib. The investigators will compare the people in the study who take ondansetron with the people in the study who take placebo. This research will help the investigators to find out if ondansetron can be used as a medicine for people who have Afib. Read Less

Two arm, pragmatic, randomized controlled multicenter Phase III noninferiority trial evaluating the efficacy of standard pain management without NSAIDs (Group 1) vs. standard pain management plus up to 6 weeks of NSAIDs (Group 2) in the treatment of tibial shaft fractures. Read Less

Acne is common illness of adolescents and young adults which is associated with substantial morbidity. While topical treatments are often sufficient for mild acne, moderate to severe acne often requires treatment with systemic medications such as oral antibiotics, hormonal therapies such spironolactone, and isotretinoin. Sebum overproduction is fundamental to the pathogenesis of acne with associated disordered keratinization and subsequent microbial colonization and inflammation resulting in the clinical manifestations of acne. Given the influence of hormones on sebum production, therapies that address these underlying hormonal factors such as spironolactone and oral contraceptive pills represent an underutilized treatment option for women with acne and could help decrease the use of long-term oral antibiotics in this patient population. The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the comparative effectiveness of spironolactone versus doxycycline hyclate (tetracycline class antibiotic) for women with acne. Read Less

This is a Phase III clinical randomized control trial to investigate differences between patient with an infected nonunion treated by PO vs. IV antibiotics. The study population will be 250 patients, 18 years or older, being treated for infected nonunion after internal fixation of a fracture with a segmental defect less than one centimeter. Patients will be randomly assigned to either the treatment (group 1) PO antibiotics for 6 weeks or the control group (group 2) IV antibiotics for 6 weeks. The primary hypothesis is that the effectiveness of oral antibiotic therapy is equivalent to traditional intravenous antibiotic therapy for the treatment of infected nonunion after fracture internal fixation, when such therapy is combined with appropriate surgical management. Clinical effectiveness will be measured as the primary outcome as the number of secondary re-admissions related to injury and secondary outcomes of treatment failure (re-infection, nonunion, antibiotic complications) within the first one year of follow-up, as defined by specified criteria and determined by a blinded data assessment panel. In addition, treatment compliance, the cost of treatment, the number of surgeries required, the type and incidence of complications, and the duration of hospitalization will be measured. Read Less

Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) affects approximately 4,000 to 12,000 persons annually in the United States. Mortality from HIE has been reported up to 60%, with at least 25% of survivors left with significant neurocognitive disability. Despite this vital unmet medical need, no pharmacological adjunct or alternative therapy has proven beneficial in improving outcomes in neonatal HIE. RLS-0071 is a novel peptide being developed for the treatment of neonatal HIE. This study is designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of RLS-0071 in the treatment of newborns with moderate or severe HIE. Read Less

This phase II trial determines if the combination of ONC201 with different drugs, panobinostat or paxalisib, is effective for treating participants with diffuse midline gliomas (DMGs). Despite years of research, little to no progress has been made to improve outcomes for participants with DMGs, and there are few treatment options. ONC201, panobinostat, and paxalisib are all enzyme inhibitors that may stop the growth of tumor cells by clocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. This phase II trial assesses different combinations of these drugs for the treatment of DMGs. Read Less
