The TSC Biosample Repository collects and stores samples of blood, DNA, and tissues that scientists can request to use in their research. The samples we collect are all linked to clinical data in the TSC Natural History Database. The TSC Natural History Database captures clinical data to document the impact of the disease on a person's health over his or her lifetime. This data may be collected retrospectively or prospectively.

The primary aim of this project are to evaluate a comprehensive, practice-ready, and deployment-focused strategy for improving the prediction and prevention of suicide attempts among a sample of 4,000 patients presenting to an ED with a psychiatric concern. The first aim is to evaluate the effects of providing information about risk of patient suicidal behavior to ED clinicians. The investigators hypothesize that patients randomly assigned to have their clinician receive their risk score will have a lower rate of suicide attempts during 6-month follow-up and that this effect will be mediated by changes in clinician decision-making.

The main purpose of this study is to learn more about the safety, side effects, and effectiveness of LOXO-435 by itself or when it is combined with other standard medicines that treat cancer. LOXO-435 may be used to treat cancer of the cells that line the urinary system and other solid tumor cancers that have a change in a particular gene (known as the FGFR3 gene). Participation could last up to 30 months (2.5 years) and possibly longer if the disease does not get worse.

The Pompe Registry is a global, multicenter, international, longitudinal, observational, and voluntary program for patients with Pompe disease, designed to track the disease's natural history and outcomes in patients, both treated and not. Data from the Registry are also used to fulfill various global regulatory commitments, to support product development/reimbursement, and for other research and non-research related purposes. The objectives of the Registry are: - To enhance understanding of the variability, progression, identification, and natural history of Pompe disease, with the ultimate goal of better guiding and assessing therapeutic intervention. - To assist the Pompe medical community with the development of recommendations for monitoring patients, and to provide reports on patient outcomes, to optimize patient care. - To characterize the Pompe disease population. - To evaluate the long-term effectiveness of alglucosidase alfa.

Lupus nephritis is a chronic and life-threatening autoimmune cause of kidney disease that predominately impacts young people and can lead to kidney failure. Sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors, including dapagliflozin, are known to improve outcomes for people with other causes of chronic kidney disease. This pilot and feasibility randomized clinical trial will test the use of dapagliflozin versus placebo in addition to standard of care treatment for patients with early and active lupus nephritis, a group who has not been included in past trials.

The goal of this clinical trial is to test in moderately symptomatic chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) patients if middle meningeal artery embolization (MMAE) can be used as an alternative to conventional open surgery. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Compared to open conventional surgery, does MMAE reduce the need for rescue surgery or deaths? - What is the safety of MMAE and conventional open surgery in these patients? Participants will be asked to: - Share their medical history and undergo physical examinations - Have blood drawn - Have CT scans of the head - Answer questionnaires - Undergo MMAE or conventional open surgery - Provide information about possible adverse events Researchers will compare participants in the MMAE group with those in the conventional open surgery group to see if there is a reduced need for rescue surgery or deaths and evaluate safety.

This study is researching an experimental drug called REGN5837 in combination with another drug, odronextamab (called "study drug[s]"), in patients with relapsed or refractory aggressive B-cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphomas (B-NHLs). The study has 2 parts. The aim of the first part (dose escalation) is to find a safe dose of REGN5837 when given in combination with odronextamab. The goal of the second part (dose expansion) is to use the REGN5837 drug dose found in the first part to see how well REGN5837 in combination with odronextamab works. The study is looking at several other research questions, including: - What side effects may happen from taking the study drugs - How much study drug is in the blood at different times - Whether the body makes antibodies against the study drugs (that could make the drugs less effective or could lead to side effects)

Phase 1/2, dose escalation and expansion study designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of neladalkib (NVL-655), determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D), and evaluate the antitumor activity in patients with advanced ALK- positive (ALK+) NSCLC and other solid tumors. Phase 1 will evaluate the overall safety and tolerability of neladalkib and will determine the RP2D and, if applicable, the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of neladalkib in patients with advanced ALK+ solid tumors. Phase 2 will determine the objective response rate (ORR) as assessed by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR) of neladalkib at the RP2D. Secondary objectives will include the duration of response (DOR), time to response (TTR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and clinical benefit rate (CBR) of neladalkib in patients with advanced ALK-positive NSCLC and other solid tumors. A drug-drug interaction (DDI) sub-study will determine the effect of neladalkib on the pharmacokinetics of midazolam and repaglinide, as well as the effect of itraconazole on the pharmacokinetics of neladalkib, in patients with advanced ALK-positive NSCLC

Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) are common. Post-TBI depression is associated with anxiety, aggression, fatigue, distractibility, anger, irritability, and rumination. The current research group conducted a pilot clinical trial, which investigated the novel treatment combination of buspirone and melatonin (B+MEL) in outpatients with clinical depression. Compared to placebo, B+MEL was associated with a significant improvement in depressive symptoms. Depression following TBI may be different from clinical depression. The B+MEL combination has never been studied in patients with post-TBI depression. The B+MEL has shown promise in ameliorating cognitive difficulties in people with depression. Because cognitive problems are typical in people with post-TBI depression, we plan to measure the effect of the B+MEL combination on cognitive ability in post-TBI depression. Additionally, we are interested in measuring functional magnetic resonance imaging changes before and after treatment with B+MEL in order to gain insight into the brain mechanisms of our hypothesized clinical symptom changes. The goals of the proposed pilot research project are to assess changes in symptoms in patients with post-TBI depression following Buspirone + Melatonin combination (B+MEL), and the corresponding brain mechanisms underlying these hypothesized changes by measuring: 1) depressive symptoms; 2) cognitive symptoms; 3) functional magnetic resonance imaging.
