An Observational Study of Patients With Chronic Hepatitis B (CHB) Infection
Recruiting
The TARGET-HBV study engages an observational research design to conduct a comprehensive review of outcomes for patients with CHB infection. The initial phase of the study that enrolled patients treated with tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) was successfully completed. The current protocol (Amendment 1) describes the second phase of the study that will engage research activities for patients being managed for CHB in usual clinical practice in the US and Canada.

Effectiveness of the Eko Digital Stethoscope in Capturing Infant ECGs
Recruiting
When a newborn is diagnosed with tachyarrhythmia, they are generally started on medical therapies, most commonly a beta-blocker, while being observed in an inpatient setting. In most academic institutions, current practice is to provide parental teaching on use of a stethoscope to auscultate their child when there is suspicion for distress, in addition to requiring cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) classes. Fortunately, newer technologies have emerged that allow for capture of cardiac rhythm t... Read More

Sleep Extension to Improve Sleep Efficiency and QoL in HF With Preserved Ejection Fraction: the SLEEP-HF Pilot Study
Recruiting
Nearly one-third of US adults have poor sleep quality. Sleep quality refers to sleep efficiency, sleep latency, sleep duration, wake after sleep onset, and movement during the night. Specifically, sleep efficiency (SE) measures how well an individual utilizes their time in bed for restorative sleep and it highly depends on actual sleep duration. Reduced SE is associated with a greater risk for heart failure (HF), which affects \~6.7 million adults in the US alone. HF with preserved ejection frac... Read More

The Re-Prosper HF Study
Recruiting
Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) is a common cause for admission within the Veterans Affairs (VA) Health Care System. It is associated with severe impairment of physical and mental health status and carries a high risk of mortality. Even though significant progress has been made in understanding the disease process, currently, its management and treatment is limited. The investigators have discovered that a commonly used drug for the treatment of gout can be repurposed for... Read More

ALS/MND Natural History Study Data Repository
Recruiting
This is a data repository for multi-site multi-protocol clinic-based Natural History Study of ALS and Other Motor Neuron Disorders (MND). All people living with ALS or other MNDs who attend clinics at the Study hospitals (sites) are offered to participate in the Study. The Sites collect so-called Baseline information including demographics, disease history and diagnosis, family history, etc. At each visit, the Sites also collect multiple disease-specific outcome measures and events. The inform... Read More

Conditioning SCID Infants Diagnosed Early
Recruiting
The investigators want to study if lower doses of chemotherapy will help babies with SCID to achieve good immunity with less short and long-term risks of complications after transplantation. This trial identifies babies with types of immune deficiencies that are most likely to succeed with this approach and offers them transplant early in life before they get severe infections or later if their infections are under control. It includes only patients receiving unrelated or mismatched related dono... Read More

Motor Outcomes to Validate Evaluations in FSHD (MOVE FSHD)
Recruiting
The primary goal of this proposal is to collect motor and functional outcomes specific to FSHD over time. By collecting measures specific to FSHD, this will help ensure the best level of clinical care is being provided. Also, the hope is to speed up drug development by gaining a better understanding of how having FSHD impacts motor function and other health outcomes (i.e. breathing, wheelchair use, etc.) and how big a change in motor function would be clinically meaningful to those with FSHD.

Cryospray Therapy Versus Standard of Care for Benign Airway Stenosis (CryoStasis)
Recruiting
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 las... Read More

Impact of Bromocriptine on Clinical Outcomes for Peripartum Cardiomyopathy
Recruiting
The study will enroll 200 women newly diagnosed with peripartum cardiomyopathy within 5 months postpartum in a randomized placebo controlled trial of bromocriptine therapy to evaluate its impact on myocardial recovery and clinical outcomes. Given that bromocriptine prevents breastfeeding, an additional 50 women with peripartum cardiomyopathy excluded from the trial due to a desire to continue breastfeeding but meeting all other entry criteria will be followed in an observational cohort.

A Study to Assess the Safety and Tolerability of AZD1390 Given With Radiation Therapy in Patients With Brain Cancer
Recruiting
This study will test an investigational drug called AZD1390 in combination with radiation therapy for the treatment of brain tumors. This is the first time AZD1390 is being given to patients. This study will test safety, tolerability and PK (how the drug is absorbed, distributed and eliminated) of ascending doses of AZD1390 in combination with distinct regimens of radiation therapy
