Benign central airway stenosis (BCAS) is an important cause of both pulmonary morbidity and mortality. Notable causes include post-intubation stenosis, collagen vascular diseases, airway trauma, infectious and idiopathic subglottic stenosis (iSGS). Surgery is the preferred definite option; however, the first therapeutic attempt is usually endoscopic to temporarily restore airway patency and symptomatic improvement. Several endoscopic modalities exist for treatment. Most commonly, thermal or laser therapy to make radial incisions into the stenotic lesion, followed by balloon dilation to increase the area of patency. Clinicians may also inject steroids or antineoplastic agents such as mitomycin C. All of these methods have benefits and associated risks. Symptomatic stenosis frequently reoccurs with these methods. For example, the investigators have been doing 3-4 ballon dilations procedures a week at our institution. Spray cryotherapy (SCT) is a novel FDA-cleared technique that allows for liquid nitrogen to be delivered through the working channel of a bronchoscope. Few retrospective studies exist without more robust clinical trial data to reduce the risk of bias and support its widespread use. The investigators postulate that SCT and standard of care techniques will improve airway patency volume at six months than the standard of care techniques alone. Some of the proposed advantages include improved wound healing which may translate to less scar tissue and thus improvements in airway patency for a longer duration of time. Read Less

This phase II trial tests whether decitabine and cedazuridine (ASTX727) in combination with venetoclax work better than ASTX727 alone at decreasing symptoms of bone marrow cancer in patients with chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML), myelodysplastic syndrome/myeloproliferative neoplasm (MDS/MPN) with excess blasts. Blasts are immature blood cells. Decitabine is in a class of medications called hypomethylation agents. It works by helping the bone marrow produce normal blood cells and by killing abnormal cells in the bone marrow. Cobimetinib is used in patients whose cancer has a mutated (changed) form of a gene called BRAF. It is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of an abnormal protein that signals cancer cells to multiply. This helps slow or stop the spread of cancer cells. Venetoclax is in a class of medications called B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2) inhibitors. It may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking Bcl-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. The combination of ASTX727 and venetoclax may be more effective in reducing the cancer signs and symptoms in patients with CMML, or MDS/MPN with excess blasts. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a single intravenous infusion of AB-1003 in adults diagnosed with limb girdle muscular dystrophy type 2I/R9 (LGMD2I/R9). Participants will be treated in sequential, dose-level cohorts. (Part 1) Read Less

Prospective, randomized, open-label, international, multi-center clinical study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the AccuCinch Ventricular Restoration System in patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Read Less

This is a Phase 2, open-label, multi-center, 2-part study of NS-089/NCNP-02 administered by weekly IV infusion to ambulant boys aged ≥4 to <15 years with DMD due to mutations amenable to exon 44 skipping. Participants will receive a selected dose of NS-089/NCNP-02 administered once weekly. The study consists of 2 parts: Part 1 and Part 2. Six participants (Cohort 1) will participate in both Part 1 and Part 2, and 14 participants (Cohort 2) will be added for Part 2. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of extended dosing with eplontersen in participants with ATTR-CM. Read Less

Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) is a condition with increased amount of fat, inflammation and scarring in the liver. In compensated cirrhosis, the liver is coping with this damage and maintaining its important functions. Decompensation occurs when the liver becomes unable to perform all of its functions adequately. Variceal hemorrhage (bleeding from abnormal vessels in the liver called varices), Ascites (abnormal build-up of fluid in the abdomen), and Encephalopathy (brain confusion as a result of the liver not being able to get rid of toxic substances) are three symptoms of liver decompensation. The purpose of this research study is to investigate better ways to routinely monitor the condition of patients with NASH with compensated cirrhosis and to better pinpoint the development of decompensation in the livers of these patients.

Heart failure (HF) is a type of heart disease that leads to need of admissions to the hospital during worsening of symptoms. These admissions are expensive and very inconvenient for patients. The investigators have previously shown that monitoring of patients with a using a small wearable sensor combined with a mathematical model can detect worsening of HF before the patient needs medical care. In this study the investigators will test whether the remote monitoring and prediction of HF worsening can be used to find out when patients are at risk, change their treatment and avoid a hospitalization. The study will enroll 240 Veterans with HF and randomly assign half of them to monitoring and communication of the information on HF worsening to their medical teams. The investigators hope to find our how to best use this approach in routine care of HF. The investigators also plan to determine if this approach will indeed led to less admissions to the hospital among these patients, shorter hospital stays and better quality of life. Read Less

The main objective of this study is to establish a national pediatric obesity registry known as POWER (Pediatric Obesity Weight Evaluation Registry). This registry will contain clinical data from individual comprehensive pediatric weight management programs around the United States for overweight and obese youth. Read Less

This study will determine the effect of oral 80 mg resmetirom administered once daily on participants with well-compensated non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) cirrhosis by measuring the time to experiencing a Composite Clinical Outcome event. Read Less
