NCT01851434
Background: \- Optic neuritis often is a symptom of multiple sclerosis (MS). Many people who experience optic neuritis are later diagnosed with MS. MS disease activity seen on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans is often greater than that seen in tests given during regular doctor's visits. Even though MRI is a helpful tool for studying optic neuritis and MS, more information is needed on how MS symptoms show up on MRI scans. Researchers want to use MRI scans to track changes in the optic nerve after an optic neuritis episode. This approach will help them study the relationship between optic neuritis and MS. Objectives: \- To collect more information about the relationship between optic neuritis and multiple sclerosis. Eligibility: * Individuals between 18 and 50 years of age who have new optic neuritis. * Individuals between 18 and 50 years of age who have new symptoms of MS other than optic neuritis. * Healthy volunteers between 18 and 50 years of age. Design: * Participants will be screened with a physical exam and medical history. They may provide blood or urine samples. * Participants with optic neuritis or other MS symptoms will have a baseline study visit. They will have a physical exam and full eye exam. To look for signs of MS, they will have evoked potential tests to see how the body responds to stimulation. They will also have an MRI scan to study any changes in the brain and optic nerves. * After the first visit, participants will have steroid treatment for 5 days for the optic neuritis. * Additional study visits will be given 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after the baseline visit. The tests from the first visit, including the MRI scans, will be repeated at these visits. * Healthy volunteers will have a baseline study visit. They will have a physical exam and full eye exam. They will have evoked potential tests to see how the body responds to stimulation. They will also have an MRI scan to study any changes in the brain and optic nerves. * Healthy volunteers will have additional study visits 2 and 11 months after the baseline visit. The tests from the first visit, including the MRI scans, will be repeated at these visits.
NCT03707587
Background: Programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-L1) is a protein on the surface of cells. It regulates if a cell can be killed by immune system cells. It is thought to be able to affect the immune system response to diseased cells like those infected with a virus. The molecule M7824 interferes with the activity of PD-L1. It could help the immune system kill cells infected with a virus . Since recurrent respiratory papillomatosis is caused by a virus infection, this molecule could help. Objective: To see if M7824 works in treating recurrent respiratory papillomatosis. Eligibility: Adults ages 18 years or older with recurrent respiratory papillomatosis Design: Participants will be screened with: Medical history Physical exam Blood and pregnancy tests Endoscopy procedure in clinic. A small tube with a camera will look at the inside of the nose, throat, larynx, and upper windpipe. Some participants will also be screened with a chest scan. At the start of the study, participants will: Have a sedated endoscopy procedure where biopsies will be taken. Have blood tests. Have apheresis. Blood will be collected by a tube in an arm vein. A machine will remove white blood cells. The rest of the blood will be returned into an arm vein. Fill out a voice questionnaire. Participants will get the study molecule into a vein over about 1 hour. They will get it every other week for up to 12 weeks. Participants will repeat screening and starting procedures throughout the study. They will also review side effects and any medicine they are taking. When they are done with the study treatment, participants will be evaluated by repeating the study procedures. They may be evaluated periodically until their disease progresses.
NCT02544763
This trial consists of 2 parts: a double-blinded phase and an open-label extension phase. The blinded phase only will be described in this record. Participants will receive 1 of 2 doses of GWP42003-P or matching placebo. The primary clinical hypothesis is that there will be a difference between GWP42003-P and placebo in their effect on seizure frequency.

NCT03066778
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of pembrolizumab plus standard of care (SOC) chemotherapy (etoposide/platinum \[EP\]) in participants with newly diagnosed extensive stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) who have not previously received systemic therapy for this malignancy. The primary study hypotheses are that pembrolizumab+EP prolongs Progression-free Survival (PFS) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1 by blinded independent central review (BICR) and Overall Survival (OS) compared with placebo+EP in adult participants with ES-SCLC. In this study, RECIST 1.1 has been modified to follow a maximum of 10 target lesions and a maximum of 5 target lesions per organ. With protocol Amendment 07 (03-Oct-2018), the outcome measure of "Change from Baseline at Weeks 12 and 24 in European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 (QLQ-C30) Global Health Status/Quality of Life Scale" was replaced with a single time point analysis at Week 18.

NCT04551352
This is a first-in-human, multi-center clinical study to determine the safety, Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and/or Optimal Biological Dose (OBD) as well as the optimal schedule for intravenous (IV) and/or subcutaneous (SC) administrations of RO7293583 with or without obinutuzumab pretreatment, in participants with unresectable metastatic TYRP1-positive melanomas who have progressed on standard of care (SOC) treatment, are intolerant to SOC, or are non-amenable to SOC. This study will include an initial single participant dose-escalation part one followed by a multiple participant dose-escalation part two with the possibility of expansion.
NCT03371745
The trial objective is to determine whether the deferred transfer of embryos following cryopreservation at the blastocyst stage following pre-implantation genetic screening (PGS-FET) improves live birthrates compared to both the deferred transfer of cryopreserved embryos without PGS (FET) and immediate transfer at the conclusion of a "fresh" in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycle (Fresh). Additionally, whether "freeze-only" (FET) improves live birth rates compared to "fresh" will be determined.
NCT02981472
To investigate the safety and pharmacokinetics of apixaban in children with congenital or acquired heart disease who have a need for anticoagulation.
NCT04330235
More than a dozen municipalities have passed healthy default kids' beverage policies. These policies seek to reduce child consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) by requiring that restaurants serve only healthy beverages (e.g., water, milk, or 100% juice) instead of SSBs as the default choice with children's meals in restaurants. These policies have potential to meaningfully reduce child SSB consumption. However, there are significant gaps in our knowledge of the effects of healthy default beverage policies on children's health. This study uses a natural experiment to evaluate the effects of a healthy default beverage policy in two U.S. cities, New York City and Philadelphia, on children's fast-food restaurant meal orders and dietary intake. The primary hypothesis is that the policy will reduce children's SSB purchases and consumption, reduce children's total caloric intake, and improve diet quality at the fast-food restaurant meal and on the day of the restaurant meal.
