The R61 will perform a four-part double-blind randomized crossover study transitioning from a pretreatment baseline phase, to randomized treatment with either lidocaine or an identical placebo patch, washout, and alternate arm. DLss measures will be obtained before and after each phase. Twice daily report of pain using a visual analogue scale will track severity of ongoing spontaneous pain in participants. The hybrid biomarker will distinguish between placebo and active treatment arms, will significantly correlate with extent of neuropathic pain reduction during lidocaine, but will not change during the placebo phase or no-treatment lead-in. If preset Go/No-Go criteria are met, the subsequent R33 validation will then compare lidocaine patch and placebo treatment in a blinded, randomized parallel arm study. Read Less

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter Phase 3 study that will enroll approximately 368 subjects aged 18 to 75 years old with Moderately to Severely Active Ulcerative Colitis. Read Less

Congenital heart defects (CHD) are the most common major human birth malformation, affecting \~8 per 1,000 live births. CHD are associated with significant morbidity and mortality, and are second only to infectious diseases in contributing to the infant mortality rate. Current understanding of the etiology of pediatric cardiovascular disorders is limited. The Congenital Heart Disease GEnetic NEtwork Study (CHD GENES) is a multi-center, prospective observational cohort study. Participants will be recruited from the Pediatric Cardiac Genomics Consortium's (PCGC) centers of the NHLBI-sponsored Bench to Bassinet (B2B) Program. Biological specimens will be obtained for genetic analyses, and phenotype data will be collected by interview and from medical records. State-of-the-art genomic technologies will be used to identify common genetic causes of CHD and genetic modifiers of clinical outcome. To accomplish this, the PCGC will develop and maintain a biorepository of specimens (DNA) and genetic data, along with detailed, phenotypic and clinical outcomes data in order to investigate relationships between genetic factors and phenotypic and clinical outcomes in congenital heart disease.

The aim of this 6-month randomized multi-regional double-blind parallel group placebo-controlled phase 3 study is to assess the efficacy and safety of three different doses of Tigulixostat in gout patients with hyperuricemia. Read Less

Tic disorders are a class of childhood-onset neuropsychiatric disorders that occur in 1-3% of the population. Studies have shown that a non-drug treatment known as Comprehensive Behavioral Intervention for Tics (CBIT) is more effective than supportive therapy for reducing tics in children and adults. Although CBIT is now recommended as a first-line intervention for tic disorders, many patients do not have access to CBIT, in part due to a lack of trained therapists. Currently, the only option available for training therapists in CBIT is an intensive, two day, in-person behavior therapy training institute (BTTI). This study will compare the traditional in-person training approach to a recently developed online, self-paced CBIT therapist training program called CBIT-Trainer with regard to (1) therapists' ability to accurately administer CBIT and (2) change in the severity of patients' tic symptoms after being treated by a CBIT-trained therapist.

This is a Phase I multicenter, open-label, dose-ranging, three-dose PK and PD study of injectable LB administered as an IM or SQ injection at 40 mg, and subsequently at 50mg SQ and then 60 mg SQ depending on the preliminary pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic results obtained with 40 mg dosing.

The purpose of this research use only (RUO) study is to detect genomic structural variants (SVs) in human DNA by Optical Genome Mapping (OGM) using the Bionano Genomics Saphyr system. SVs are a type of genetic alternation that includes deletions, duplications, and both balanced and unbalanced rearrangements (ex: inversions or translocations), as well as specific repeat expansions and contractions. The results of OGM analysis will be compared to prior clinical genetic test results to determine how OGM compares to current standard of care (SOC) clinical test methods such as chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA), karyotyping, Southern blot analysis, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), and/or next generation sequencing (NGS), etc. Read Less

The purpose of this trial is to evaluate if augmenting a usual audit and feedback implementation approach with telehealth-enabled support improves coordinated spontaneous awakening/breathing trials and patient outcomes for mechanically ventilated patients. Read Less

Spinocerebellar ataxias (SCA) are genetic neurological diseases that cause imbalance, poor coordination, and speech difficulties. There are different kinds of SCA and this study will focus on types 1, 2,3, and 6 (SCA 1, SCA 2, SCA 3 , also known as Machado-Joseph disease and SCA 6). The diseases are rare, slowly progressive, cause increasingly severe neurological difficulties and are variable across and within genotypes. The purpose of this research study is to bring together a group of experts in the field of SCA for the purpose of learning more about the disease. The research questions are: 1. How does your disease progress over time? 2. What are the best ways to measure the progression? 3. Do some genes, other than the gene that is abnormal in your disease, have any effect on the way the disease behaves? This is a nationwide study and we expect that 800 patients will participate all over the USA. The participants will be in the study for an indeterminate period of time. Study visits will be done every 6 or 12 months depending on the participating site. Read Less

This is a prospective in vitro cell biology study of polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMN) protein synthesis in response to PAF. PMNs from cord blood of premature human infants at risk for NEC (birth weight between 501 - 1500 grams) and PMNs from cord blood of healthy term infants will be isolated and stimulated with PAF, a biologically active phospholipid implicated in the pathogenesis of NEC. NEC, a disease of prematurity with an incidence of 10.1% of infants born weighing between 501 - 1500 grams, is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. We will compare the protein synthesis of inflammatory modulators, including Interleukin 6 Receptor alpha (IL-6R alpha) and Retinoic Acid Receptor alpha (RAR alpha) proteins to protein synthesis responses already observed in PMNs isolated from healthy adults. Furthermore, we will characterize the expression and activity of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) translational protein synthesis control pathway in PMNs isolated from preterm and term infants and compare those results with previous observations in PMNs isolated from adults. This pathway is known to regulate IL-6R alpha and RAR alpha protein expression in PMNs isolated from adults. We will also follow those premature infants at risk for NEC clinically to determine which infants develop NEC and what risk factors may be associated with NEC in this population. Read Less
