This phase I trial tests the safety and side effects of SX-682 in combination with standard of care treatment carfilzomib, daratumumab-hyaluronidase, and dexamethasone in treating patients with multiple myeloma that has come back after a period of improvement (relapsed) or that has not responded to previous treatment (refractory). SX-682 works by blocking certain sites on cells that suppress the ability of the immune system to destroy tumor cells. Blocking those specific sites allows other cells of the immune system to become "free" to kill tumor cells. Carfilzomib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Daratumumab is in a class of medications called monoclonal antibodies. It binds to a protein called CD38, which is found on some types of immune cells and tumor cells, including myeloma cells. Daratumumab may block CD38 and help the immune system kill tumor cells, while hyaluronidase helps to deliver daratumumab to CD38-expressing tumor cells through a subcutaneous injection. Dexamethasone is in a class of medications called corticosteroids. It is known to kill myeloma cells and is also used to reduce inflammation and lower the body's immune response to monoclonal antibodies like dratumumab and help lessen its side effects. Giving SX-682 in combination with carfilzomib, daratumumab-hyaluronidase and dexamethasone may be safe and tolerable in treating patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma Read Less

The investigators propose to expand our previous work to test whether 10 repeated administrations of the cTBS procedure over a two-week period can lead to longer-term improvements in sleep, perhaps up to 3-months. For this 3-year study, 120 people with insomnia will be recruited to participate. There will be an initial screening, with the first consent form being for the screening questions, a psychological interview, and a one night at home sleep monitoring session with our equipment. If participants pass this first phase, they will reconsent for the main portion of the study. They will then undergo a physical examination, then a week-long at-home monitoring phase where they will wear a wristwatch sleep monitor as well as wear a portable brain wave monitor to bed each night to record sleep. Participants will continue to use this equipment throughout the treatment phase and for one week post treatment. After the first monitoring phase, each participant will be randomly assigned to one of four different conditions (i.e., 30 assigned to each group). Three of the conditions will involve cTBS focused on different brain locations (i.e., stimulation to the middle front, middle back, or side of the skull), while the fourth condition will provide inactive sham stimulation as a control. All participants will complete 10 treatment visits to the lab over two-to-three weeks, during which they will get a brief cTBS or sham stimulation each time. In addition, all participants will complete a brain scanning and cognitive testing session at the beginning and end of the two-to-three week treatment period. Participants will also complete 1-month and 3-month online follow-up assessments to examine long-term effects. Read Less

This is a study to determine the safety of CDX-622 in healthy participants. Read Less

This trial is being completed to compare two commonly used options to treat pain after discharge from surgery. Participants that undergo tonsil removal, gallbladder removal, and knee scope will be eligible to enroll. Eligible participants will be randomized to prescription of 1 of 2 groups of medications (Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) plus acetaminophen or low dose opioids with the NSAIDs plus acetaminophen. The key question the study seeks to answer is which option will have the best outcomes and with the fewest side effects? Read Less

It is not known whether a new diabetes drug, semaglutide, is an effective treatment for type 2 diabetes for persons with spinal cord injury (SCI), a population at higher risk for this condition. Therefore, this study looks at the effect of semaglutide on glucose levels in the body and other information about type 2 diabetes and obesity. Read Less

The goal of study： The study has two parts: Part 1 Dose Escalation and Part 2 Dose Expansion. In Part 1, a few participants will receive the lowest dose of study drug. The study team will make sure it is safe and tolerated before enrolling new participants at a higher dose of study drug. There will be up to six or more dose levels of study drug tested (called cohorts). Which dose you receive will depend on how many participants have taken part in the study before you. The purpose of Part 1 of the study is to evaluate the safety of the study drug at different dose levels, to understand what your body does to the study drug, and to find the best dose of study drug in people who have advanced solid tumor cancers. In Part 2, participants will receive the best dose level that was determined in Part 1 of the study. The purpose of Part 2 of the study is to evaluate the safety of the study drug at the dose level determined in Part 1, to understand what your body does to the study drug, and to see how your cancer responds to the study drug. Participants will: Participants will have 17 or more visits to the study centre. This study has a screening phase of up to 28 days , and a treatment phase with cycles of 21 days each. Participants will also have an End of Treatment (EOT) visit 21 days after the final study drug treatment, and a Follow-up visit 30 days after the EOT visit . Participants will be contacted by telephone every 3 months after the Follow-up visit to check on the wellbeing and record any new anticancer therapy they may have started. Read Less

This project aims to study whether a structured wellness program intervention can improve quality of life among people living with Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder (NMOSD). This pilot will test a multi-modal wellness program tailored to NMOSD patients that includes services from physical therapists, dietitians, social workers, nurse practitioners and cognitive therapists. The trial will be designed as a randomized controlled trial, randomizing patients to immediately starting the program as well as a 6 month delayed start. The intervention would leverage an existing clinical comprehensive MS wellness program at the Corinne Dickinson for Multiple Sclerosis (MS) at Mount Sinai Medical Center. The primary endpoint of this study would be evaluating quality of life, as assessed by MS-Quality of Life -54. Read Less

This retrospective, non-randomized cohort study will evaluate how well the Cordella PA Sensor System works compared to standard medication treatment in people with chronic heart failure. The study will track patients for two years to see if those using the Cordella system have fewer deaths and hospitalizations related to heart failure. Read Less

YUQ-A1007 is a novel gut-enriched AhR agonist. The nonclinical pharmacology study indicated that YUQ-A1007 has the potential to treat IBD. YUQ-A1007 has not been evaluated in human clinical studies. This study is first-in-human (FIH) study of YUQ-A1007. The goal of this trial is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of oral YUQ-A1007. Read Less
