This BRAIN-ICU-2 study \[Bringing to light the Risk factors And Incidence of Neuropsychological dysfunction (dementia) in ICU Survivors, 2nd Study\] is in direct response to PAR-17-038 and will determine ICU patients' main paths to decline, maintenance, or recovery of brain function. We will answer gaps in knowledge about long-term outcome of post-ICU brain disease by following the remaining ICU survivors from the original BRAIN-ICU-1 study with complete cognitive testing for the first time ever to 12 years (AIM 1). We will consent and enroll 567 new ICU patients at Vanderbilt and Rush Universities (i.e., BRAIN-ICU-2 cohort) and determine how detailed neuroimaging and cerebrospinal fluid samples can help reveal locations and mechanisms of injury beyond what we learned from the clinical information collected in our original study (AIM 2). Importantly, we are mirroring the existing world-renowned Rush Alzheimer's Disease Research Center brain bank program so that all patients enrolled in Aims 1 and 2 will able to donate their brains to science for the first-ever in-depth pathological study of those who do and do not get post-ICU dementia to define this disease formally (AIM 3) Read Less

This study will assess safety, tolerability, and treatment activity of datopotamab deruxtecan (Dato-DXd) in combination with immunotherapy with or without carboplatin in participants with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Read Less

Lung transplantation is a life-saving therapy for patients with advanced lung disease, however, necessitates the use of life-long immunosuppressive therapy for the prevention of acute and chronic rejection. The backbone of immunosuppression is the calcineurin-inhibitor class, with tacrolimus being the preferred drug due to its potency and improved side-effect profile. Nevertheless, tacrolimus is associated with several side effects including increased risk for infection and malignancy, tremors, headaches, seizures, hypertension, leukopenia and renal dysfunction. In fact, by 6 months post-transplant, 50% of patients will have a 50% decline in eGFR and by 5 years post-transplant \~10% of patients will have advanced renal disease that may require renal replacement therapy and/or kidney transplantation. Tacrolimus induces a nephropathy in two ways- acute calcineurin inhibitor nephrotoxicity (CIN) is mediated by afferent arteriolar vasoconstriction, whereas chronic CIN is due to interstitial nephritis and fibrosis. Immunosuppressive regimens that spare or dose-reduce calcineurin inhibitors have been shown to have a modest impact on preserving renal function, but are limited by timing. Although most studies support implementing renal preserving protocols early on, this is balanced by the potential for acute cellular rejection, antibody mediated rejection and anastomotic dehiscence. Long-acting Tacrolimus (LCP-tacrolimus) may have the potential to bridge the balance of providing potent immunosuppression, while sparing renal function, due to the better systemic dose levels and improved concentration/dose ration achieved with it compared to IR-tacrolimus, evidenced in the renal transplant population. There is limited experience with LCP-tacrolimus in lung transplantation. Several case reports chronicling the late conversion from IR-tacrolimus to LCP-tacrolimus due to absorption issues or side-effect intolerance, have demonstrated safety and tolerability. The investigators seek to determine whether early use of LCP-tacrolimus in lung transplant recipients following the index hospitalization is acceptable, and propose a single-center prospective, randomized, controlled pilot study of early-use LCP-tacrolimus in lung transplant recipients to assess safety, tolerability and side-effects of LCP-tacrolimus.

The purpose of this study is to find out whether the study drug, LY3537982, is safe and effective in cancer patients who have a specific genetic mutation (KRAS G12C). Patients must have already received or were not able to tolerate the standard of care, except for specific groups who have not had cancer treatment. The study will last up to approximately 4 years.

The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to learn if the use of a low-dose nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), ketorolac, reduces the rate of chronic opioid use in orthopaedic polytrauma patients. The main questions this study aims to answer are: 1. Are patients who are given scheduled ketorolac during the first five hospital days less likely to develop chronic opioid use at 6 months after injury compared to patients who receive placebo? 2. Does scheduled ketorolac during the first five hospital days improve functional responses to pain at discharge, 3 months, and 6 months after injury? 3. Does early pain control provided by ketorolac decrease chronic opioid use through decreased acute pain and opioid use, improved functional responses to pain, or both? Participants will be enrolled and randomized to either the ketorolac (treatment) group or placebo group to be given every 6 hours during the first five hospital days. Pain and opioid use will be measured daily during the five-day treatment period. Opioid use will be measured and functional response to pain surveys will be obtained at discharge, 2 weeks, 6 weeks, 3 months, and 6 months after injury. Researchers will compare ketorolac (treatment) versus saline (placebo) to see if ketorolac reduces chronic opioid use and improves the functional response to pain. Read Less

Early Feasibility Study to evaluate the safety and performance of the Innoventric Trillium™ Stent Graft in the treatment of severe or greater tricuspid regurgitation (TR). Read Less

This is a phase 1 dose-escalation study of nilotinib in combination with fixed-dose dabrafenib and trametinib regimen for patients with metastatic or unresectable melanoma carrying a BRAF V600 mutation and have relapsed on a BRAF/MEK inhibitor therapy. The goal is to assess the toxicity and tolerability and determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD)/recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of the combination of nilotinib with dabrafenib and trametinib or with encorafenib and binimetinib. Additionally, this study will assess pharmacokinetic parameters of dabrafenib and nilotinib when used in combination. Read Less

Crisis stabilization centers (CSCs) provide a less costly and more comfortable alternative to Emergency Department care for individuals with suicidal crises. With demand for crisis alternatives growing, effective interventions that fit the unique workflows and workforce of CSCs are needed to realize their life-saving potential. To address this need, the investigators will adapt, and pilot test the effectiveness of an interpersonally enhanced recovery and follow-up intervention delivered during and after admissions acute suicidal crises.
