NCT04096560
The main aims of the study are: * To check for side effects from TAK-994 and check what dose of TAK-994 participants can tolerate. * To check what dose range provides adequate relief of narcolepsy symptoms. * To check how much TAK-994 stays in the blood of participants, over time. The study will have 4 parts. Participants can only join 1 of the parts. A. Participants with type 1 narcolepsy will take either TAK-994 or placebo tablets for 28 days. A placebo looks just like TAK-994 but will not have any medicine in it. B. Participants with type 1 narcolepsy will take 1 of 3 doses of TAK-994 or placebo tablets for 56 days. C. Participants with type 1 narcolepsy in China only will take TAK-994 or placebo tablets for 56 days. D. Participants with type 2 narcolepsy will take either TAK-994 or placebo tablets for 28 days.
NCT00331331
This study will examine the proteins of people with uveitis, or inflammation of the eyes. Evaluating the vitreous, the colorless transparent substance that fills the eyeball in back of the lens, is now possible with the use of new microtechnology. There is an opportunity to evaluate the kinds of proteins that are present in severe, noninfectious sight-threatening uveitis. Up to 300 participants, ages 18 and older with the appropriate ocular disorders and where vitreous or anterior chamber fluid specimens can be obtained, will be enrolled in the study. This number includes participants that were previously enrolled as part of the Multicenter Uveitis Steroid Treatment (MUST) study, as well as patients who participate in other intramural NIH studies and agree to participate in this study. Researchers will study the vitreous that will be removed from patients' eyes during an operation to insert a steroid implant. The steroid implant is used instead of immunosuppressive therapy, a way to reduce the action of the immune system. Patients will undergo a procedure involving a small hole made in the eye into which the implant is placed. Normally a small amount of the vitreous comes out during that procedure, and in this study, the vitreous specimen will be taken for testing of inflammatory products. At the same time, a small sample of blood, about 1-1/2 tablespoons, will be collected so that the researchers can compare inflammatory products that may be in the blood with those in the vitreous. If a patient needs to have the implant placed again during the study, he or she would be asked permission for collection of the vitreous and blood samples, as previously. Samples collected will not be used to diagnose patients' conditions or to change any treatments being done. All samples will be labeled with special code numbers so that there is no identifying information about patients. This study will not involve examinations or scheduled visits of patients.
NCT00936325
Background: * Systemic Capillary Leak Syndrome (SCLS) is a disorder of unknown cause characterized by episodes of life-threatening drop in blood pressure and leakage of fluids into tissues. The outcome from an episode of SCLS may be mild and resolve on its own, or may be severe and result in death. Although SCLS likely involves abnormalities in the cells lining blood vessels, the specific cause(s) of this disorder are not known. * The treatment of choice for an acute SCLS episode is intravenous fluids and drugs such as norepinephrine (adrenaline), which are given to keep blood pressure at a level that will maintain vital organ function. This may be followed by a course of intravenous steroids and IVIG. Currently, there is no cure, but IVIG has been effective in diminishing the frequency and/or intensity of SCLS episodes when given regularly, as long-term effective preventive therapy for many patients who experience recurrent episodes of SCLS. * This protocol is focused on understanding what causes SCLS with the hope that research findings will lead to the design of safe and more effective treatments. Objectives: \- To investigate mechanisms that may cause Systemic Capillary Leak Syndrome. Eligibility: * Patients between 16 and older who have been diagnosed with SCLS. Patients who have been diagnosed with SCLS and are between the ages of 7 and 16 may participate off-site, by sending specimens to the NIH. Patients 16 and older who have been diagnosed with SCLS and cannot travel to the NIH may also participate off-site. * Patients must have a documented history of at least one episode of SCLS with all three of the following documented on at least one occasion: low blood volume, low blood pressure without cause, and evidence of protein leakage during the episode. A letter of a referral from a treating physician is also required. Design: * Patients seen on site will be evaluated at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) for approximately 4 to 5 days on an inpatient basis, and will undergo the following procedures: * Medical history and physical examination. * Blood samples for evaluation and research purposes, as well as possible genetic testing. * Apheresis procedure, if needed, to obtain a larger volume of blood cells for research. * Bone marrow biopsy, if medically indicated. * Other medically indicated tests, such as skin tests to check for possible allergic reactions. * Patients who have a capillary leak episode while at NIH will be treated with the standard of care for treating SCLS. * Patients will be discharged from the protocol 1 year after the NIH visit. * Patients participating off-site will be asked to collect and send specimens (such as blood) to the NIH for research purposes and evaluation. * Unaffected Biological relatives of SCLS patients and Unrelated Normal Volunteers may also enroll on the study. Relatives and Normal Volunteers may be asked to provide research samples for the study, such as skin biopsy and research blood specimens.

NCT03215511
This research study is done to test the safety of the new drug selitrectinib in children and adults with cancer having a change in a particular gene (NTRK1, NTRK2 or NTRK3). The drug may treat cancer by interfering with the effect of the NTRK genes on cancer growth. The study also investigates how the drug is absorbed and processed in the human body, and how well and for how long the cancer responds to the drug. This is the first study to test selitrectinib in humans with cancer, for whom no other effective therapy exists.
