Phase 1/2a Study of Belantamab Mafodotin in Relapsed or Refractory AL Amyloidosis
Recruiting
The goal of this study is to test the safety of drug, Belantamab Mafodotin, and see what effects (good and bad) it has on people who take it and amyloidosis, and to determine the most effective dose of the drug. The study will have 2 phases (parts). The first phase of the study will test different doses of Belantamab Mafodotin.

Transition to Cardiac Rehabilitation (T2CR) to Address Barriers of Multimorbidity and Frailty
Recruiting
Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is a secondary prevention program for patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD). It is especially valuable as CVD increasingly occurs in combination with comorbidity, frailty, and complexities of care that predispose patients to functional decline, disability, and high costs. Still, few Veterans participate in CR, in part because of the difficult logistics to attend. Promising Practice home-based CR (HBCR) was developed to increase CR participation, but many Veterans...

Dead Space and Inhaled Nitric Oxide in Pediatric Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
Recruiting
The goal of this observational study is to determine whether a marker of dead space (the end-tidal to alveolar dead space fraction \[AVDSf\]) is more strongly associated with mortality risk than markers of oxygenation abnormality (oxygenation index) and to determine whether dead space (AVDSf) is an important marker of heterogeneity in the inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) treatment effect for children with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The study aims are: 1. To validate AVDSf for risk s... Read More
