The objective of this study is to determine if a combination of oral nicotinamide and pyruvate (N\&P) can maintain eye health as compared to placebo while standard-of-care intraocular pressure-lowering glaucoma medications are used to treat glaucoma. A total of up to 188 participants will be enrolled and randomized 1:1 to receive N\&P or placebo for 87 weeks (20 months). Participants will be followed for a total of 91 weeks (21 months).

The purpose of this 10-week, double-blind, placebo-controlled study is to determine whether inflammation impacts reward and motor neural circuitry to contribute to depressive symptoms like anhedonia and psychomotor slowing in people with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) and depression. Sixty male and female patients with HIV who have depression, anhedonia and high inflammation and are stable on effective treatment for their HIV will be randomized to receive either the anti-inflammatory drug baricitinib or a placebo for 10 weeks. Participants will complete lab tests, medical and psychiatric assessments, neurocognitive testing, functional MRI (fMRI) scans, and optional spinal taps as part of the study. Read Less

VEXAS (vacuoles, E1 ubiqutin-activating enzyme, X-linked, autoinflammatory, somatic syndrome) is a recently described disorder with severe hematologic and rheumatologic manifestations caused by somatic variants in the ubiquitin- activating enzyme gene, UBA1, that is acquired in hematopoietic progenitor cells. Patients are often debilitated by autoinflammatory symptoms and there is currently no standard of care available. There is a clinically unmet need for better therapies in VEXAS Syndrome. There have been no prospective clinical trials of JAK-I in VEXAS syndrome. The investigators hypothesize that pacritinib, as a JAK2/IRAK1 inhibitor with a manageable safety profile in myelofibrosis patients with thrombocytopenia, will improve the autoinflammatory and hematologic manifestations of VEXAS syndrome with a tolerable toxicity profile. The investigators propose a single arm, pilot Phase 1 study evaluating the safety and tolerability of pacritinib in patients with VEXAS syndrome with an initial safety run-in phase of 6 patients treated with pacritinib 200mg twice daily (BID) on days 1-28 of a continuous 28 day cycle. If no more than 1 patient experiences a dose-limiting toxicity (DLT), the investigators will enroll an expansion cohort to gain additional toxicity and efficacy data, for a total enrollment of 15 patients. If more than 1 patient experiences a DLT during the safety run-in phase, the investigators will decrease the dose to 100 mg BID, and if no more than 1 of 6 patients experiences a DLT, the investigators will complete the expansion cohort as above for up to a total enrollment of 15 patients. If more than 1 patient experiences a DLT at 100 mg BID, the investigators will discontinue the study. Patients will be treated for up to 12 cycles. Read Less

The goal of this study is to reduce the chance of complications during mechanical thrombectomy, which is a procedure to remove blockages from the brain. This study is combining two established and standard procedures for the first time so that the patient may benefit from both and reduce the chance of another stroke during the procedure. Our main goal is to show that this combination is safe, feasible, and effective for stroke patients. The combined procedures are described as follows: 1. Mechanical Thrombectomy: while the patient is asleep under light or general anesthesia, a surgical cut will be made in their groin to access the common femoral artery. A catheter will be inserted into this cut so that a wire can advance through the artery. Using an imaging technique called angiography, a blueprint is used to advance the wire from an artery in their groin, to their neck, into their brain and locate the target blockage. Once the target is located, more wires and catheters are used to finetune the extraction process. A stent retriever is placed on standby before removing the blockage. 2. Reversal Flow: before the mechanical thrombectomy is completed, a surgical cut will be made to the other groin that has not been operated on. A catheter and wire are used to access the newly punctured femoral vein. A device called an aspiration filter will connect a catheter from their femoral vein to an aspiration catheter at the target site. Once this connection is complete, full removal of the blockage by the stent retriever will occur while blood flow is reversed. Read Less

The proposed study is an open label, non randomized, waitlist controlled single group feasibility study of the feasibility and usability of a digital intervention (called ChangeBite) to be used by individuals with obesity and comorbid binge eating behavior. The proposed research will include approximately 30 participants. Participants will be recruited for this single group pilot trial using online advertising to attend a virtual screening session. Screened participants willing and eligible to participate, will receive informed consent and formally start ChangeBite. Participants will be instructed to engage with ChangeBite and attend follow up assessments on scheduled video calls. Feasibility and acceptability of implementation will be assessed by collecting data on recruitment, retention, usability and satisfaction. The research team will also collect assessment data from participants on feasibility, and usability. In addition to self report scales, semi-structured interviews will be completed with a trained research team member via video call and will be partially recorded. Assessments will be done at baseline, 12 weeks, and 24 weeks. Participants' app use frequency and duration will be tracked using software analytics. Participants' body weight will be captured weekly using a timestamped picture of their weight as it appears on their scale and Body Mass Index will be calculated with these data points. Read Less

The study will assess the safety, PK, PD, and preliminary efficacy of ABBVCLS-484 as monotherapy and in combination with a PD-1 targeting agent or with a or a vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI). The trial aims to establish a safe, tolerable, and efficacious dose of ABBVCLS-484 as monotherapy and in combination. The study will be conducted in three parts. Part 1 Monotherapy Dose Escalation, Part 2 Combination Dose Escalation and Part 3 Dose Expansion (Monotherapy and Combination therapy). Part 1, ABBV-CLS-484 will be administered alone in escalating dose levels to eligible subjects who have advanced solid tumors. Part 2, ABBV-CLS-484 will be administered at escalating dose levels in combination with a PD-1 targeting agent or with a VEGFR TKI to eligible subjects who have advanced solid tumors. Part 3, ABBV-CLS-484 will be administered alone as a monotherapy at the determined recommended dose in subjects with locally advanced or metastatic, relapsed or refractory head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), relapsed or refractory non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and advanced clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). ABBV-CLS-484 will also be administered at the determined recommended dose in combination with a PD-1 targeting or with a VEGFR TKI agent in subjects with locally advanced or metastatic, HNSCC, NSCLC, MSI-H tumors refractory to PD-1/PD-L1, and advanced ccRCC.

Gene therapy is a paradigm-shifting treatment for hemophilia B patients, particularly in resource-limited countries where factor availability remains low. Transparent and culturally sensitive communication around gene therapy is vital to the success of a high-quality consenting process. Current literature on knowledge, beliefs and attitudes about gene therapy in resource-limited countries is inadequate. In addition, few educational resources to explain basic gene therapy concepts exist in languages other than English. This study aims to address these gaps in knowledge and aid for the development of educational resources to assist the informed consent processes for gene therapy in resource-limited countries. Primary Objective: To assess baseline knowledge, beliefs, and attitudes about gene therapy held by hemophilia B patients globally Secondary Objectives: 1. To explore healthcare workers' (i.e., physicians, nurses, social workers, educators/academic coordinators) perspectives regarding the education needs of hemophilia B patients globally 2. To explore healthcare workers beliefs and attitudes about gene therapy 3. To identify preferences of patients with hemophilia B and their healthcare workers on how/by what method or pathway educational content should be provided. Read Less
