This study is being conducted to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of using the PXL Platinum 330 System with riboflavin solution for performing corneal collagen crosslinking (CXL) for the treatment of refractory corneal ulcers. The PXL Platinum 330 System is a combination product consisting of an ultraviolet-A (UV-A) 365 nm wavelength light source (PXL Platinum 330 Illumination System) and riboflavin (Peschke Riboflavin 0.25% Transepithelial Solution) administered in conjunction with the UV-A light as a photosensitizer. The PXL Platinum 330 System is intended to induce corneal collagen CXL to improve the biomechanical properties of the cornea by strengthening the corneal tissue in the anterior stroma. Corneal collagen CXL is performed by pretreating the cornea with riboflavin 0.25% ophthalmic solution beginning 40 min before UV-A light exposure to saturate the corneal tissue with the riboflavin photosensitizer. The cornea is then irradiated with UV-A light (365 nm) at an irradiance of 18 mW/cm2 (5 seconds on, 5 seconds off) for 10 min. Exposure of the cornea to this UV-A light regimen after topical administration of riboflavin (0.25%) has been shown to induce CXL of the corneal collagen fibrils, with a resultant increase in tensile strength and diameter of the collagen fibrils. Clinically, CXL has been shown to stabilize the corneal curvature in eyes with progressive keratoconus, with no significant change in the refractive index of the cornea. Numerous reports and a few clinical trials have also shown benefit in aiding resolution of infective corneal ulcers. Read Less

This study is being conducted to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of using the PXL Platinum 330 System with riboflavin solution for performing corneal collagen crosslinking (CXL) for the treatment of previously untreated corneal ulcers. The PXL Platinum 330 System is a combination product consisting of an ultraviolet A (UV-A) 365 nm wavelength light source (PXL Platinum 330 Illumination System) and riboflavin (Riboflavin 0.23% PESCHKE-L Solution) administered in conjunction with the UV-A light as a photosensitizer.

CHAOS is based on the investigator's new and exciting results from pre-clinical and large longitudinal multi-center observational clinical studies of critically ill patients and asymptomatic community-based adults with little or no advanced disease. By integrating approaches from the physical, biological, computational, statistical and clinical sciences, this observational study will test the hypothesis that early diagnosis of subclinical signatures of critical illness encoded within physiological signals complements conventional clinical predictors by providing unique prognostic insight. The primary goal is to reduce mortality, morbidity and complications by early identification of individuals with brewing subclinical critical illness and adverse events before overt clinical presentation (e.g., cardiac arrest, arrhythmias, hemorrhage, respiratory failure, circulatory collapse). This will provide the necessary lead time for healthcare providers to deliver early, more effective and/or preventive therapies. Through innovative approaches, CHAOS also meets the challenge of medical errors to reduce missed diagnosis, misdiagnosis, preventable harm and variability in provider adherence to best practice guidelines. The goal is to validate predictive algorithms and identify subclinical signatures of illness, ranging from asymptomatic adults in the community to very sick patients in the hospital. The overall goal is to make healthcare more precise, effective, efficient, safe and timely while reducing costs, preventable harms and adverse events. Read Less

RADIANT is a network of 14 clinical sites and several laboratories dedicated to the study of atypical diabetes. The objective of this study is to define new forms of diabetes and the unique mechanisms underlying these forms of atypical diabetes. The specific aims are to: Identify and enroll individuals and families with undiagnosed rare and atypical forms of diabetes. Determine the etiologic basis of the metabolic disorder among individuals and families with novel forms of rare and atypical diabetes. Understand the pathophysiology of individuals and families with novel forms of rare and atypical forms of diabetes. Read Less

This study will compare the effects of AXA1125, an orally active mixture of amino acids, compared to placebo, on improving fat and inflammation (steatohepatitis) as well as fibrosis in subjects with non alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). as well as the safety and tolerability of AXA1125. Subjects will take one of two different doses of AXA1125 or a placebo twice daily, and a liver biopsy will be done at the beginning and end of the 48-week study. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to assess the change in 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) between baseline (Day 0) and Day 120 following 4 months of testosterone therapy with Natesto. Read Less

The purpose of the study is to examine the feasibility and acceptability of two music interventions delivered through telehealth for chronic musculoskeletal pain. This pilot study evaluates outcomes (feasibility, acceptability, pain and associated outcomes) in a single-component, minimally interactive music listening (ML) intervention and a multi-component, more interactive music imagery (MI) intervention.

This study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of dipraglurant in PD patients with dyskinesia (randomized 1:1 to receive active or placebo) for 12 weeks (1 week at 150 mg per day and 11 weeks at 300 mg per day). The primary efficacy assessment will be based on the Unified Dyskinesia Rating Scale (UDysRS). Patients who complete the 12-week blinded treatment period may have the option to roll into an open-label safety extension study for an additional 12-month treatment period. Read Less

This is a comparative effectiveness study of two pragmatic models aiming to introduce palliative care for end stage liver disease patients. The 2 comparators are: Model 1: Consultative Palliative Care (i.e. direct access to Palliative Care provider), Model 2: Trained Hepatologist- led PC intervention (i.e. a hepatologist will receive formal training to deliver Palliative Care services) Primary Outcome: The change in quality of life from baseline to 3 months post enrollment as assessed by FACT-Hep (Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy- Hepatobiliary). 14 Clinical Centers across US are recruited to participate in this study.
