NCT04186871
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of treatment with branebrutinib treatment in participants with active systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) or Primary Sjögren's Syndrome (pSS), or branebrutinib treatment followed by open-label abatacept treatment in study participants with active Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA).
NCT05646095
Sleep disturbances are pervasive and impairing among children who spend time in foster care but not a single prevention or intervention program for this fragile group targets sleep health. Poor sleep undermines effective self-regulation and stable biological rhythms, amplifying the negative impacts of early adversity/trauma on immediate and long-term functioning. Consistent with evidence that optimizing sleep is critical for trauma recovery, the investigators will adapt cognitive-behavioral treatment for pediatric insomnia for children placed in or adopted from foster care to evaluate child outcomes and target mechanism engagement and explore implementation barriers and supports.
NCT00817726
* Purpose - to validate a combination of biological and clinical markers in the rapid-eye-movement (REM) sleep behavior disorder (RBD) population as indicative of the pre-symptomatic stage of Parkinson's disease (PD). * Procedures - All subjects (RBD diagnosis and controls) will have 1) a medical and neuro history and physical including videotape of movements, 2) neuropsychological testing, 3) a sleep study, 4) olfactory testing, 5) blood draw for serum testing , 6) functional MRI. All of these procedures are often performed clinically in the diagnosis of PD. Enrollment of subjects with PD is complete. Any testing performed prior to enrollment as part of the clinical evaluation may be used in place of repeating the procedure for the study. Subjects will be followed for 5 years. It is hypothesized that a 5 year follow up may capture a significant number of pre-Parkinson's subjects who will be diagnosed. Subjects may be offered a repeat enrollment after 5 years.
NCT04485728

NCT03371251
This study will be conducted to assess the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of repeat doses of BOS161721 (20 milligrams \[mg\], 60 mg, and 120 mg) administered subcutaneously in adult participants with moderately to severely active Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) on limited background standard of care treatment, in order to estimate the optimal dose. BOS161721 at the chosen dose will be compared to placebo for response on the SLE Responder Index 4, with sustained reduction of oral corticosteroids, in the same participant population.
NCT03616964
NCT03113461
The purpose of this project is to determine whether obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) treatment with positive airway pressure therapy (CPAP) can delay the progression of cognitive impairment in patients with amnestic Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) as measured by cognitive testing, and brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans. Study participants will be assessed at baseline, six-month (cognitive tests only) and one-year follow-up.
NCT03334851
This is a Phase 1 single and multiple dose escalation study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of PF-06835375 in subjects with seropositive SLE or RA. The design is double-blind, sponsor open and placebo controlled. This study will include two parts: Part A and Part B. Part A will consist of single ascending dose cohorts, Part B of multiple ascending dose cohorts. This study will enroll up to a total of approximately 112 subjects at approximately 10 sites.
NCT03033901
Background: Sleep disorders, including sleep apnea, are common after traumatic brain injury and affect recovery and negatively influence participation in rehabilitation. Sleep apnea is a breathing problem while persons sleep and causes further brain damage and problems with thinking, daily functioning, and overall health. Earlier diagnosis and treatment is important for traumatic brain injury (TBI) survivors to maximize the recovery process. There is little information that guides TBI doctors on how to identify sleep apnea during inpatient TBI rehabilitation, a phase in which people experience the potential for a rapid pace of improvement. The Agency for Healthcare Research has highlighted gaps in best methods for identifying sleep apnea and separately in helping consumers with TBI rehabilitation choices. Partnering with survivors, caregivers, and administrators, investigators developed this study to compare sleep apnea screening and diagnostic tools in TBI rehabilitation settings. This information will provide clinicians, providers, and patients with the best information for early identification of sleep apnea to remove negative influence on the pace of recovery in early phases after TBI. The Goal: Investigators will compare existing screening (Aim 1) and diagnostic tools (Aim 2) in TBI patients undergoing inpatient rehabilitation. For the second aim, investigators will determine if a more accessible diagnostic test is sufficient to diagnose sleep apnea compared to the traditional method used which is less accessible to consumers. If the more accessible test is good enough, this will increase recognition of this problem and increase patient access to earlier sleep apnea treatment. Stakeholders and Products. TBI survivors, caregivers, researchers, and policymakers working together on this study helped develop the study questions. Idea exchanges included ways to reach clinicians and TBI survivors/caregivers via existing educational programming and online tools for consumers such as fact sheets and patient/caregiver-focused videos. Other traditional methods will include targeting professional magazines, conferences, and research journals that reach professionals working with TBI survivors and their families at the time of admission to rehabilitation and during the recovery process. This study will occur at rehabilitation hospitals around the country who enroll TBI survivors into a lifetime study called the TBI Model System funded by the Department of Health and Human Services and Veterans Affairs (VA).

NCT01128816
Sleep Apnea (SA) is a disorder that causes pauses in breathing during sleep that expose the heart to oxygen deprivation. It is common in patients with heart failure (HF) where it is associated with increased risk of hospitalizations and death. It is not known however whether treating SA reduces these risks. This study is looking at whether a respiratory device known as Adaptive Servo Ventilation (ASV) can reduce the rate of cardiovascular hospitalizations and death in subjects with HF and SA. Study subjects will randomly receive either their regular medications OR their regular medications plus ASV. They will be followed for approximately 5 years and information relevant to their health will be collected and compared.
