NCT01998633
HLH, HLH-related disorders, Chronic Granulomatous (CGD), HIGM1, Immune dysregulation, polyendocrinopathy, enteropathy, and X-linked inheritance (IPEX) and severe LAD-I represent primary immune disorders that are typically fatal without Hematopoietic Cell Transplant (HCT). However, transplant is often complicated by inflammation, infection and other co-morbidities. In addition, these disorders have been shown to be cured with partial chimerism, making them an ideal target for the use of reduced intensity approaches, where a portion of patients may not achieve full donor chimerism, but instead achieve stable mixed chimerism. Reduced-intensity conditioning strategies have demonstrated improved survival with decreased Treatment Related Mortality (TRM) in institutional series for patients with HLH (Cooper et al., 2006; Marsh et al., 2010; Marsh et al., 2011). However, graft loss and unstable chimerism remain challenges. An institutional case series from Cincinnati Children's Hospital demonstrated full or high-level chimerism and improved durable engraftment using intermediate (Day -14) timing alemtuzumab (Marsh et al., 2013b). This study aims to test the efficacy of the Intermediate RIC strategy in a prospective multi-center study including HLH as well as other primary immunodeficiencies where allogeneic transplant with RIC has been shown to be feasible and stable chimerism is curative.
NCT04823052
This study is to investigate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of Sulindac (HLX-0201) and Gaboxadol (HLX-0206) in males with Fragile X Syndrome (FXS) with confirmed full FMR1 mutation treated over a 10 week period in an outpatient setting.
NCT00063414
This is a multi-center trial to test the safety, efficacy and tolerability of alicaforsen (ISIS 2302), a new type of drug called an antisense drug, in patients with mild to moderate active Ulcerative Colitis (UC). Alicaforsen is designed to reduce the production of a specific protein, called ICAM-1, a substance that plays a significant role in the increase of inflammation and is likely to be involved in inflammatory bowel diseases such as ulcerative colitis. The ISIS 2302-CS22 study will examine the effects of one of two dosages of alicaforsen delivered by enema over a six-week period as compared to an active control, mesalamine enema (The probability of receiving the alicaforsen formulation is 2:1). The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the percentage reduction in DAI at Week 6.
NCT04130685
The AlloSure test is approved by the Centers for Medicare \& Medicaid Services (CMS) for use in Medicare patients to assess the probability of allograft rejection in kidney transplant patients. The pivotal DART study discusses the use of the non-invasive AlloSure test to measure donor derived cell-free DNA (dd-cfDNA) and the Allosure test can by used to discriminate active rejection in renal transplant patients. Pancreas allograft rejection still remains a major clinical challenge and is a primary cause of death censored pancreas allograft loss. Pancreas transplant rejection is diagnosed by biopsy, however it is not commonly performed because of the complications such as pancreatic leak, graft loss and patient death. Currently at Rush surveillance biopsy of the pancreas are not performed routinely due to the above risks. At RUMC, patients are followed post-transplant with series of labs at set intervals that include lipase, DSA, C-Peptide, and GAD65 for surveillance of rejection The AlloSure test was introduced for routine use in kidney transplant recipients at Rush University Medical Center in October 2017, after CMS approval and then as part of the KOAR Study in May of 2018. AlloSure test has been included as part of the routine labs for surveillance of rejection in pancreas transplant recipients at RUMC since September 2018 after it was approved for compassionate use. The addition of AlloSure has helped to improve surveillance of rejection in pancreas transplant recipients and has reduced the need for the kidney biopsy as a surrogate marker of rejection in the pancreas. Our goal is to determine if AlloSure can be used for surveillance for rejection in recipients of Simultaneous Pancreas and Kidney (SPK) Transplant recipients.

In addition subjects will have OmniGraf™ (TruGraf® and TRAC™) testing at any time there is a clinical suspicion of acute rejection. Data collection for the primary objective extends over a 2-year period.
NCT00530517

NCT01099449
RATIONALE: Chemoprotective drugs, such as calcium gluconate and magnesium sulfate, may prevent neurotoxicity caused by oxaliplatin. It is not yet known which administration schedule of calcium gluconate and magnesium sulfate is more effective in preventing neurotoxicity. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying different administration schedules of calcium gluconate and magnesium sulfate and comparing how well they work in neurotoxicity in patients with colon cancer or rectal cancer receiving oxaliplatin-based combination chemotherapy.
NCT05010512
The purpose of this study is to compare the clinical performance of DAILIES TOTAL1 ( DT1) contact lenses with Infuse contact lenses.
NCT03924323
This is a study in minors (7 to 17 years old) diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) and evaluated using standard questionnaires as having at least moderate severity of GAD. Participating minors will be assigned to receive either the study drug escitalopram or a pill without any drug in it called a placebo. The purpose of this research is to study the safety and effectiveness of escitalopram in minors with GAD.
NCT04640597
The MIMICS-3D-USA Study is a prospective, multicentre, observational study (non-investigational) of the BioMimics 3D Vascular Stent System that evaluates evaluate safety, effectiveness and device performance within a real-world clinical population of patients undergoing femoropopliteal intervention for the treatment of peripheral artery disease.

NCT04095143
Fluid overload is associated with adverse outcomes in patients with severe acute kidney injury. It remains unclear if fluid overload is merely a marker of disease severity or if organ congestion is a mediator of complications. Point-of-care ultrasound could be a modality used to assess organ congestion and its clinical implications. The objective of this study is to determine whether ultrasound markers of organ congestion are associated with major adverse kidney events in critically ill patients with severe acute kidney injury.
NCT03290248
This is a Prospective, Controlled, Double Blinded, Single Center, Randomized, 3 Arm, Parallel Assignment, Phase 1b/2a Study to assess the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of B244 delivered as an intranasal spray in healthy volunteers and subjects with seasonal allergic rhinitis.
NCT02049866
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate antiresorptive therapy with denosumab (Prolia) for prevention of bone loss after stopping teriparatide (TPTD) in premenopausal women with idiopathic osteoporosis. Premenopausal women who have received TPTD in the FDA Orphan Diseases Program-funded trial, "A Phase 2 Study of Teriparatide for the Treatment of Idiopathic Osteoporosis in Premenopausal Women" (NCT01440803) may be eligible to participate in the current study, a 36-month open-label pilot study of denosumab (Prolia®, 60mg subcutaneous (SC) every 6 months). The goals of the study are to estimate the effects of denosumab on central and peripheral, as well as trabecular and cortical, bone mass and microstructure and to obtain preliminary data to inform the design of a future randomized study. This study presents the first opportunity to study the effects of denosumab after TPTD in this unique and severely affected group of young women. Funding Source: FDA Office of Orphan Products Development (OOPD).

NCT01995175
The purpose of this study is to assess the incidence and associated healthcare utilization of RSV-associated, suspected LRTI in a general population of infants from birth up to 2 years of age, and also to assess the accuracy of a newly developed LRTI case definition and severity scale compared to two existing definitions. The study will also assess the population attributable risk percent of RSV LRTI on the development of wheeze and asthma from 0 to 6 years of age.
NCT04006964
The diagnosis of a lung function anomaly requires the evaluation of pulmonary function by spirometry. However, some patients (e.g. children, elderly, or diseased individuals) may have difficulty performing the related forced maximal respiratory maneuver correctly. Forced Oscillation Technique (FOT) measures lung impedance during tidal breathing, requiring minimal patient cooperation. The purpose of this study is to establish the diagnostic accuracy of FOT parameters alone or in combination with lung volumes in detecting lung function anomalies as compared with spirometry and with the diagnosis made by the physician.
