A Study of Revumenib in R/R Leukemias Including Those With an MLL/KMT2A Gene Rearrangement or NPM1 Mutation
Recruiting
Phase 1 dose escalation will determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of revumenib in participants with acute leukemia. In Phase 2, participants will be enrolled in 3 indication-specific expansion cohorts to determine the efficacy, short- and long-term safety, and tolerability of revumenib.

Genome Environment Microbiome and Metabolome in Autism Study
Recruiting
GEMMA is a multicenter longitudinal observational study that follows children who are genetically at-risk of developing autism for their first three years of life, seeking to identify potential biomarkers predictive of autism development in the blood, stool, urine and saliva. The biomarkers identified in this project will contribute to a better understanding of the pathogenesis of ASD in at-risk children and possible solutions for alleviating and/or preventing ASD and ASD-related symptoms in pat...

Abatacept in Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Myocarditis
Recruiting
The primary aim is to test whether abatacept, as compared to placebo, is associated with a reduction in major adverse cardiac events (MACE) among participants hospitalized with myocarditis secondary to an immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI). The primary outcome, MACE, is a composite of first occurrence of cardiovascular death, non-fatal sudden cardiac arrest, cardiogenic shock, significant ventricular arrythmias, significant bradyarrythmias, or incident heart failure.

Normothermic Machine Perfusion of Steatotic Livers for Expansion of Donor Organ Pool
Recruiting
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the ability of Normothermic Machine Perfusion (NMP) to resuscitate moderately steatotic livers for transplantation in patients. This will be a single-site clinical trial placing donor livers with 30-60% macrosteatosis on NMP, and then transplanting those that meet commonly accepted viability criteria. The results of this study could lead to a trial extending NMP transplantation to severely steatotic livers, further expanding the donor organ pool.
