Non-compaction cardiomyopathy (NCCM) is a heterogeneous, poorly understood disorder characterized by a prominent inner layer of loose myocardial tissue, and associated with heart failure, stroke, severe rhythm irregularities and death. For a growing population diagnosed with NCCM there is a need for better risk stratification to appropriately allocate (or safely withhold) these impactful preventive measures. The goal of this international consortium is to improve care of patients with non-compaction cardiomyopathy. We hypothesize that comprehensive analysis of clinical, genetic, structural and functional information will improve risk stratification. In addition, we hypothesize that detailed structural analysis will allow for differentiation of pathological and benign patterns of non-compaction. In a large cohort of adult patients with suspected NCCM we will perform in-depth phenotyping, including clinical information, pedigree data, genetics, echocardiography and MRI, and follow patients for up to 3 years. We will apply machine-learning based analytics to develop predictive models and compare their performance to currently used models and treatment criteria. Secondly, in a subset of patients we will perform high-resolution cardiac CT for detailed structural characterization of the myocardial wall. We will investigate associations between myocardial structure and regional contractile function, as assessed by echo and MRI. The aim of this proposal is to identify a structural signature associated with pathological non-compaction and improve developed risk prediction models. Discovery of pathological structural signatures through innovative imaging techniques, in relation to myocardial contractility, will advance our understanding of NCCM. Read Less

Patients will also undergo a non-standard of care CT scan 2 years after surgery. Read Less

This study was designed to evaluate safety and antitumor activity of HER3-DXd in two parts: Dose Escalation and Dose Expansion. In Dose Escalation, HER3-DXd was evaluated in participants with metastatic or unresectable NSCLC with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) activating mutation after disease progression during/after EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy. In Dose Expansion, HER3-DXd will be evaluated in participants with metastatic or unresectable NSCLC with EGFR activating mutation or squamous or non-squamous NSCLC (ie, without EGFR-activating mutations) with disease progression during/after systemic treatment for locally advanced or metastatic disease. In addition, HER3-DXd will be evaluated in participants with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC whose tumors harbor a KRAS-G12C mutation after progression on the most recent line of therapy (Cohort 5).

The study is designed to characterize the clinical, neuropsychological, polysomnographic, and neuroimaging findings among subjects with Alzheimer's disease, Lewy Body dementia, and Parkinsons' Disease. Read Less

The REACH study is for people with CF who do not take cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulators. The goal of the REACH study is to collect research data, including health data and specimens, from people with CF who do not take CFTR modulators. This data may be used to inform CF research, help design CF clinical trials and support the development of new treatments for people with CF who do not take CFTR modulators. Another goal of this study is to learn about research involvement for people with CF who do not take CFTR modulators, engage them in research, and give them an opportunity to learn about what is involved in participating in a CF research study.

Six patients with diagnosed bone loss of the hip who have consented to minimally invasive repair will be approached to participate in the study. Participants will have the liquid portion of bone marrow collected using the Zimmer Biomet Biocue system, which is the standard system used by physicians at The Ohio State University, and the novel Marrow Cellutions system™. Bone marrow liquid will be collected from the surgical hip using the Zimmer Biomet Biocue system, and the Marrow Cellutions system™ will be used to collect bone marrow liquid from the non-surgical hip. Following collection, the bone marrow liquid will be processed using the respective systems to concentrate the cells and molecules found in the bone marrow liquid. As part of the standard of care for this arthroscopic procedure, concentrated bone marrow liquid processed using the Zimmer Biomet Biocue system will be delivered to the surgical site as an adjunct to promote healing. Concentrated bone marrow liquid prepared with the Zimmer Biomet Biocue system is given as part of the standard of care for patients undergoing minimally invasive treatment for bone loss of the hip; therefore, the target population for this study are individuals between the ages of 18-50 years with confirmed bone loss of the hip who have consented to minimally invasive repair. In addition to the concentrated bone marrow liquid prepared using the Zimmer Biomet Biocue system, patients will also have bone marrow liquid collected from the non-surgical hip using the Marrow Cellutions™ system. Only concentrated bone marrow liquid produced with the Zimmer Biomet Biocue system will be given to the patient. All concentrated bone marrow liquid produced with the Marrow Cellutions™ system will be sent to the laboratory for analysis. Additionally, white blood cells will be concentrated into an autologous protein solution (APS) using the Zimmer Biomet Plasmax system from blood collected using a routine blood draw. All protein solution produced will be sent to the laboratory for analysis. No protein solution will be given to the patient. As the bone marrow liquid collection using the Marrow Cellutions™ system and the blood draw to produce protein solution using the Zimmer Biomet Plasmax system are being performed for research, Read Less

The purpose of this study is to evaluate if the use of a bilateral nerve block with a local anesthetic (ropivacaine), as part of a standard of care pain control regimen (called multimodal analgesia \[MMA\]), has a favorable effect on our institutional MMA pain regimen. Subjects will go through the following study procedures: review of medical history and medications subjects have taken within a month prior to surgery. Subjects will be randomly assigned to one of the two study groups (1:1) to receive either, an ultrasound-guided bilateral nerve block (called "Pecto-Intercostal Fascial Block \[PIFB\]") with ropivacaine or saline 0.9 solution, in addition to our institutional MMA regimen. A baseline line pain and nausea scores will be recorded before surgery. The block will be performed right after general anesthesia induction. The details about the surgery will be collected. Pain assessments, nausea and vomiting scores will be registered at 12, 24 and 48 hours after surgery as well. Lastly, a follow up phone call will be made by the research team to conduct a pain-detect questionnaire at 30, 60 and 90 days after surgery. Read Less

This phase I trial tests the side effects and best dose of TGFbi natural killer (NK) cells (TiNK) when given together with isatuximab for the treatment of patients with multiple myeloma that has come back after a period of improvement (relapsed) or that has not responded to treatment (refractory). NK cells are a type of white blood cell that are known to spontaneously attack cancer cells. TiNK are NK cells made in a laboratory to have a higher response to tumor cells. A monoclonal antibody is a type of protein that can bind to certain targets in the body, such as molecules that cause the body to make an immune response (antigens). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as isatuximab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Patients also receive standard treatment (cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone) on this trial. Cyclophosphamide is in a class of medications called alkylating agents. It works by damaging the cell's DNA and may kill cancer cells. It may also lower the body's immune response. Dexamethasone is in a class of medications called corticosteroids. It is used to reduce inflammation and lower the body's immune response to help lessen the side effects of chemotherapy drugs. Giving TiNK and isatuximab with standard treatment may be a safe and effective treatment for relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. Read Less

This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of NG101 AAV gene therapy administered by subretinal injections into a single selected eye as a single selected dose for patients with wet age-related macular degeneration (wAMD). Read Less

This clinical trial evaluates an online Tai Chi intervention to promote smoking cessation among cancer survivors. Tai chi is a practice that involves a series of slow gentle movements and physical postures, a meditative state of mind, and controlled breathing. It is a gentle form of exercise that can be done while sitting or standing and does not involve any medications or medical procedures. Tai chi originated as an ancient martial art in China. Over the years, it has become more focused on health promotion and rehabilitation. The use of Tai Chi may be beneficial for cancer patients who want to quit smoking. Read Less
