The Hearts of Athletes study is being conducted to determine the heart involvement with COVID-19 in athletes. This study aims to enroll any Adult (18 years of age or greater) • Athlete is defined as NCAA Collegiate Athlete, Professional Athlete, Military, or Olympic Athlete will be eligible for the study. With COVID-19 • COVID-19 diagnosed via an RT-PCR (nasal or throat swab test) prior to enrollment Or without COVID-19 • Identified as a local Control participant (similar sport) to a participant with COVID-19, who is willing to undergo a standard cardiovascular evaluation Participants with and without COVID-19 will use their mobile devices to provide health information, like symptoms, by answering survey questions daily for 30 days. Also, participants will allow their de-identified cardiac images to be sent to the Duke Heart Center for blinded analysis. No physical risks are associated with this study. One possible risk, although minimal, is loss of confidentiality. Read Less

Difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) will be used in an open label, single agent, multicenter, study for patients with neuroblastoma in remission. In this study subjects will receive 730 Days of oral difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) at a dose of 750 mg/m2 ± 250 mg/m2 BID (strata 1, 2, 3, and 4) OR 2500 mg/m2 BID (stratum 1B) on each day of study. This study will focus on the use of DFMO in high risk neuroblastoma patients that are in remission as a strategy to prevent recurrence. Read Less

The REFORM-HF study aims to test a new technology, AquaPass, designed to assist patients experiencing symptoms of fluid overload due to Heart Failure. Patients will wear a lightweight suit that helps remove excess fluids through their sweat. The investigators want to see if the AquaPass system can remove an additional 500mL of fluids during treatment, alongside patients' regular medications like diuretics. Participants will select if to be treated at their home or in the outpatient clinic. Read Less

The purpose of this two-stage clinical trial is to assess the safety and hypotensive efficacy of AR-17043 and PG043 ophthalmic solutions in subjects with open-angle glaucoma (OAG) or ocular hypertension (OHT). Read Less

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare pregnenolone and placebo (a placebo is a look-alike substance that contains no active drug) in Operation Enduring Freedom/Operation Iraqi Freedom/Operation New Dawn (OEF/OIF/OND)-Era Veterans with a history of chronic Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does pregnenolone improve psychological health, overall physical function, cognition, symptoms of PTSD, and pain more than placebo over the 8-week study period, and what is the most effective dose of the drug that is safe and well-tolerated? * What are the biological effects of pregnenolone, and how do pregnenolone and other molecules change over the course of treatment? (and do pregnenolone and other molecules predict clinical improvement?) Participants who are eligible and consent to participate in the study will: * be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to take pregnenolone or placebo * be given pregnenolone or placebo to take each day at home * will participate in 6 visits over 11 weeks for tests, exams and procedures that are for study purposes (each visit will last 1.5 - 3 hours) * be evaluated at each visit to determine if there are any bad reactions to the study drug and if study participation is still appropriate * be financially compensated for their visit time and travel cost Read Less

Brain metastases are a source of much morbidity and mortality in adults with primary solid malignant tumors. With improvements in systemic therapy that prolong survival but have limited central nervous system penetration, patients with brain metastases are at increasing risk of developing and experiencing long-term side effects from treatment of brain metastases. The overarching goal of this study is to better understand the determinants of RT-associated changes in white and gray matter function and associated neurocognitive decline. Read Less

This is a Phase 3, open-label, multicenter study to evaluate the safety, PK, efficacy, PD, and immunogenicity of Cipaglucosidase Alfa/Miglustat treatment in enzyme replacement therapy (ERT)-experienced and ERT-naïve pediatric subjects with Pompe disease, aged 0 to \< 18 years Read Less

This screening and multi-sub-study Phase 1b/2 trial will establish a method for genomic screening followed by assigning and accruing simultaneously to a multi-study "Master Protocol (BAML-16-001-M1)." The specific subtype of acute myeloid leukemia will determine which sub-study, within this protocol, a participant will be assigned to evaluate investigational therapies or combinations with the ultimate goal of advancing new targeted therapies for approval. The study also includes a marker negative sub-study which will include all screened patients not eligible for any of the biomarker-driven sub-studies. Read Less

NUV-1511-01 is a first-in human, open- label, Phase 1/2 to evaluate the safety and efficacy of NUV-1511 in patients with advanced solid tumors. The Phase 1 portion include patients with advanced solid tumors and is designed to determine the safety and the tolerability of doses of NUV-1511. In Phase 2, NUV-1511 will be given to determine the efficacy of patients with advanced solid tumors. Read Less

The overall objective of this proposal is to conduct a longitudinal prospective study of overweight/obese (OW/OB) pregnant women and their offspring to determine which prenatal exercise mode will have the greatest impact on maternal and infant cardiometabolic health. This information may lead to clinical practice recommendations that improve childhood health. This randomized controlled trial will recruit 284 OW/OB pregnant women randomized to an exercise intervention (aerobic (AE), resistance (RE), or aerobic+resistance exercise (AERE)) or to no exercise; their infants will be measured at 1, 6, and 12 months of age. This design will test our central hypothesis that AERE and RE training during pregnancy will improve maternal and offspring cardiometabolic outcomes to a greater extent than AE alone. This hypothesis will be tested with two specific aims: Aim 1. Determine the influence of different exercise modes during OW/OB pregnancy on infant cardiometabolic health and growth trajectories. Hypothesis: AE, RE, and AERE by OW/OB pregnant women will improve offspring neuromotor and cardiometabolic measures at 1, 6, and 12 months postpartum (e.g. decreased %body fat, BMI z-score, heart rate \[HR\], non-HDL, and C-Reactive Protein (CRP); increased insulin sensitivity) compared to infants of OW/OB pregnant women that do not exercise; AERE and RE will have the greatest impact on improving infant measures. Aim 2. Determine the most effective exercise mode in OW/OB pregnancy on improving maternal cardiometabolic health outcomes. Hypothesis: AE, RE, and AERE by OW/OB pregnant women will improve both maternal cardiometabolic health measures (e.g. decreased BMI z-score, non-HDL, % body fat, HR, weight gain) across pregnancy (16-36 weeks' gestation) and overall pregnancy outcomes (e.g. lower incidence of gestational diabetes, pre-eclampsia, hypertension during gestation) compared to OW/OB pregnant women that do not exercise; AERE and RE will have the greatest impact on improving maternal health measures, with the AERE group having the highest compliance. The proposed study will be the first to provide an understanding of the influence of maternal exercise modes on the cardiometabolic health and growth trajectories of offspring who are at increased risk due to maternal OW/OB. This work will have a significant impact on reducing the cycle of OB, potentially providing the earliest and most efficacious intervention to decrease or prevent OB in the next generation. Read Less
