Socioeconomically disadvantaged populations with multiple chronic conditions have high rates of nonadherence to essential chronic disease medications after hospital discharge. Medication nonadherence after hospital discharge is significantly associated with increased mortality and higher rates of readmissions and costs among these patients. Major patient-reported barriers to essential medication use after hospital discharge among low-income individuals are related to social determinants of health (SDOH) and include: 1) financial barriers , 2) transportation barriers, and 3) system-level barriers. Although, medication therapy management services are important during care transitions, these services have not proven effective in improving medication adherence after hospital discharge, highlighting a critical need for innovative interventions. The Medication Affordability, Accessibility, and Availability in Care Transitions (Med AAAction) Study will test the effectiveness of a pharmacy-led care transitions intervention versus usual care through a pragmatic randomized controlled trial of 388 Medicaid and uninsured hospital in-patients with MCC from three large healthcare systems in Tennessee. The intervention will involve: 1) medications with zero copay, 2) bedside delivery then home delivery of medications, and 3) care coordination provided by certified pharmacy technicians/health coaches to assist with medication access, medication reconciliation, and rapid and ongoing primary care follow-up. We will examine the impact of the intervention during 12 months on 1) medication adherence (primary outcome) and 2) rapid primary care follow-up, 30-day readmissions, hospitalizations and emergency department visits, and costs. We will conduct key informant interviews to understand patient experience with the acre received during and after care transitions. By examining effectiveness of the intervention on outcomes including medication adherence, health care utilization, costs, and patient experience, this study will provide valuable results to health systems, payers, and policymakers to assist in future implementation and sustainability of the intervention for socioeconomically disadvantaged populations.

This clinical trial keeps track of and collects follow-up information from patients who are currently enrolled on or have participated in a Children's Oncology Group study. Developing a way to keep track of patients who have participated in Children's Oncology Group studies may allow doctors learn more about the long-term effects of cancer treatment and help them reduce problems related to treatment and improve patient quality of life.

The overarching goal of the proposed project is to evaluate a randomized clinical trial of the Pregnant Moms' Empowerment Program aimed at detecting its effects on maternal mental health, re-victimization, parenting sensitivity, and infant development. The project also seeks to examine theoretically-grounded mechanisms of change, including social support and empowerment. Women participating in the study will receive either the PMEP or participate in a contact-equivalent active control group during pregnancy, and will be interviewed at baseline, post-intervention and with their infants at 3 months and 1 year old. The study will occur at two sites - the University of Notre Dame and the University of Memphis. Participants will be recruited from the local community at both locations, with an equal number of women drawn from each site - Memphis, Tennessee (n=115) and South Bend, Indiana (n=115). Enrollment will continue for approximately 2.5 years, with an expected rate of 8 eligible women per month, based on a pilot study of the Pregnant Moms' Empowerment Program. The expected duration of the study for each participant will be approximately 1.5 years, with some variation due to women enrolling at different points in their pregnancy. The primary objective of the proposed project is to determine if the Pregnant Moms' Empowerment Program has positive effects on maternal mental health, re-victimization rates, parenting sensitivity, and infant development compared to women's participation in a contact-equivalent active control group. This objective will be evaluated using a multi-site randomized clinical trial design. Participants (N = 230) will be equally randomized into study arms. Eligible women will include those who are: 1) currently pregnant (primi or multiparous) and between 10 and 30 weeks gestation, 2) experienced IPV within the past year, 3) English speaking and 4) age 16 or older. The study will include 9 total visits: 4 assessments and 5 sessions for both study arms. In-person assessment visits will be completed by a trained research assistant; each visit will take approximately 2-3 hours, with post-partum assessments somewhat longer than prenatal assessments given the addition of the infant developmental assessment and parent-child observation task. Women will be compensated $30 for the first two assessments and $50 for the second two assessments. Following the final assessment, women will be invited to complete a daily diary (virtually) each day for 30 days. Each survey will take approximately 5-10 minutes to complete, and women will be compensated $2 for each completed survey. Women will also receive a $10 bonus for each set of 10 consecutive surveys. Treatment sessions will be 2 hours in duration. Women in the PMEP will complete a structured set of sessions: (1) supporting each other, support in the community, (2) identifying and understanding sources of distress, (3) cognitive and behavioral strategies to build resilience and resolve conflict, (4) perinatal health and infant care, and (5) positive parenting. Women in the active control condition will participate in facilitated discussions on a topic identified by the group. All sessions will be audio recorded so that treatment fidelity can be evaluated (for the Pregnant Moms' Empowerment Program) and so that content overlap can be assessed (for the active control condition).

Enroll-HD is a longitudinal, observational, multinational study that integrates two former Huntington's disease (HD) registries-REGISTRY in Europe, and COHORT in North America and Australasia-while also expanding to include sites in Latin America. More than 30,000 participants have now enrolled into the study. With annual assessments and no end date, Enroll-HD has built a large and rich database of longitudinal clinical data and biospecimens that form the basis for studies developing tools and biomarkers for progression and prognosis, identifying clinically-relevant phenotypic characteristics, and establishing clearly defined endpoints for interventional studies. Periodic cuts of the database are now available to any interested researcher to use in their research - visit www.enroll-hd.org/for-researchers/access-data/ to learn more. Read Less

This is an observational case-control study to train and validate a genome-wide methylome enrichment platform to detect multiple cancer types and to differentiate amongst cancer types. The cancers included in this study are brain, breast, bladder, cervical, colorectal, endometrial, esophageal, gastric, head and neck, hepatobiliary, leukemia, lung, lymphoma, multiple myeloma, ovarian, pancreatic, prostate, renal, sarcoma, and thyroid. These cancers were selected based on their prevalence and mortality to maximize impact on clinical care. Additionally, the ability of the whole-genome methylome enrichment platform to detect minimal residual disease after completion of cancer treatment and to detect relapse prior to clinical presentation will be evaluated in four cancer types (breast, colorectal, lung, prostate). These cancers were selected based on the existing clinical landscape and treatment availability. Read Less
