Chronic Subdural Hematoma Treatment With Embolization Versus Surgery Study (CHESS)
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.

A Clinical Study of V940 Treatment and Pembrolizumab in People With Bladder Cancer (V940-005/INTerpath-005)
Researchers are looking for new ways to treat people with high-risk muscle-invasive urothelial carcinoma (MIUC). Urothelial carcinoma is a type of bladder cancer that begins in cells that line the inside of the bladder and other parts of the urinary tract, such as part of the kidneys, ureters, and urethra. People with MIUC usually have chemotherapy before surgery, then surgery to remove the cancer. Chemotherapy is a type of medicine to destroy cancer cells or stop them from growing. After surgery, some people receive more treatment to prevent cancer from returning. Pembrolizumab is an immunotherapy, which is a treatment that helps the immune system fight cancer. Enfortumab vedotin (EV) is an antibody drug conjugate (ADC). An ADC attaches to a protein on cancer cells and delivers treatment to destroy those cells. Researchers want to learn if giving V940 (the study treatment) with pembrolizumab can prevent MIUC from returning after surgery. V940 (also called mRNA-4157) is designed to treat each person's cancer by helping the person's immune system identify and kill cancer cells based on certain proteins found on those cancer cells. The goals of this study are to learn if people who receive V940 and pembrolizumab are alive and cancer free longer than those who receive placebo and pembrolizumab, and to learn about the safety of V940, pembrolizumab, and EV, and if people tolerate them.

Identifying Strategies to Curtail Weight Regain After GLP-1 Receptor Agonist Treatment Cessation
Longitudinal studies show there is a steep increase in weight regain in the first 3-4 months after stopping GLP-1 receptor agonist medications (GLP-1s) and most patients regain most of their weight within a year. Insurers now question the utility of GLP-1s for weight loss as they are hesitant to cover these costs long-term (\~$833 per person per month). Some patients would also prefer not to take these medications in perpetuity and are likely to struggle with lifelong adherence. These challenges present an opportunity to test alternative interventions, such as meal replacements and behavioral treatments, to support weight maintenance after successful weight loss with GLP-1s. This regimen would allow patients to benefit from significant weight loss in the first year of taking GLP-1s and use more cost effective and sustainable strategies for long-term maintenance.

A Research Study Looking Into How Ziltivekimab Works Compared to Placebo in Participants With Heart Failure and Inflammation (ATHENA)
The study is being done to see if ziltivekimab can be used to treat participants living with heart failure and inflammation. Participants will either get ziltivekimab (active medicine) or placebo (inactive substance that looks like the study medicine but does not contain any medicine). The treatment participants get is decided by chance. Participant's chance of getting ziltivekimab or placebo is the same. Ziltivekimab is not yet approved in any country or region in the world. It is a new medicine that doctors cannot prescribe. The study is expected to last for up to 1 year and 4 months.

Dinutuximab With Chemotherapy, Surgery and Stem Cell Transplantation for the Treatment of Children With Newly Diagnosed High Risk Neuroblastoma
This phase III trial tests how well the addition of dinutuximab to Induction chemotherapy along with standard of care surgical resection of the primary tumor, radiation, stem cell transplantation, and immunotherapy works for treating children with newly diagnosed high-risk neuroblastoma. Dinutuximab is a monoclonal antibody that binds to a molecule called GD2, which is found on the surface of neuroblastoma cells, but is not present on many healthy or normal cells in the body. When dinutuximab binds to the neuroblastoma cells, it helps signal the immune system to kill the tumor cells. This helps the cells of the immune system kill the cancer cells, this is a type of immunotherapy. When chemotherapy and immunotherapy are given together, during the same treatment cycle, it is called chemoimmunotherapy. This clinical trial randomly assigns patients to receive either standard chemotherapy and surgery or chemoimmunotherapy (chemotherapy plus dinutuximab) and surgery during Induction therapy. Chemotherapy drugs administered during Induction include, cyclophosphamide, topotecan, cisplatin, etoposide, vincristine, and doxorubicin. These drugs work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing or by stopping them from spreading. Upon completion of 5 cycles of Induction therapy, a disease evaluation is completed to determine how well the treatment worked. If the tumor responds to therapy, patients receive a tandem transplantation with stem cell rescue. If the tumor has little improvement or worsens, patients receive chemoimmunotherapy on Extended Induction. During Extended Induction, dinutuximab is given with irinotecan, temozolomide. Patients with a good response to therapy move on to Consolidation therapy, when very high doses of chemotherapy are given at two separate points to kill any remaining cancer cells. Following, transplant, radiation therapy is given to the site where the cancer originated (primary site) and to any other areas that are still active at the end of Induction. The final stage of therapy is Post-Consolidation. During Post-Consolidation, dinutuximab is given with isotretinoin, with the goal of maintaining the response achieved with the previous therapy. Adding dinutuximab to Induction chemotherapy along with standard of care surgical resection of the primary tumor, radiation, stem cell transplantation, and immunotherapy may be better at treating children with newly diagnosed high-risk neuroblastoma.

Study of Revumenib, Azacitidine, and Venetoclax in Pediatric and Young Adult Patients With Refractory or Relapsed Acute Myeloid Leukemia
This is a research study to find out if adding a new study drug called revumenib to commonly used chemotherapy drugs is safe and if they have beneficial effects in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or acute leukemia of ambiguous lineage (ALAL) that did not go into remission after treatment (refractory) or has come back after treatment (relapsed), and to determine the total dose of the 3-drug combination of revumenib, azacitidine and venetoclax that can be given safely in participants also taking an anti-fungal drug. Primary Objective * To determine the safety and tolerability of revumenib + azacitidine + venetoclax in pediatric patients with relapsed or refractory AML or ALAL. Secondary Objectives * Describe the rates of complete remission (CR), complete remission with incomplete count recovery (CRi), and overall survival for patients treated with revumenib + azacitidine + venetoclax at the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D).

Intra-nasal Ketorolac for Acute Ureteral Stent-associated Pain Following Ureteroscopy for Stone Disease
Objective: To improve quality-of-life and health care delivery to patients receiving ureteral stents. Specific Aims: Evaluate the feasibility, practicality, and qualitative outcomes of utilizing intra-nasal ketorolac in patients with indwelling ureteral stents (Phase I), followed by a randomized trial comparing two non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, intra-nasal Ketorolac versus oral Diclofenac. Hypotheses: Due to its favorable pharmacokinetics in relieving acute pain, investigators expect improved pain scores and a lower rate of unplanned clinical encounters in patients receiving intra-nasal ketorolac compared to those taking oral diclofenac following ureteroscopic surgery for urolithiasis. Study Rationale: Following ureteroscopic management of urolithiasis, patient with indwelling ureter stents have higher levels of discomfort compared to those without a ureter stent. Prior studies showed that intramuscular Ketorolac at time of ureter stent removal decreased the incidence of unplanned clinical encounters. Furthermore, onset of analgesic effect by intra-nasal ketorolac is faster than its oral form, and similar its intramuscular and intravenous counterparts.

A Safety Assessment of Oral Letermovir in Infants With Symptomatic Congenital Cytomegalovirus
This is a Phase 1 single-arm open-label study of letermovir in neonates with symptomatic congenital Cytomegalovirus (CMV) disease. There will be two groups enrolled. Group 1 will be comprised of 4 subjects. Following documentation study inclusion and signing of informed consent, Group 1 subjects will receive one dose of oral letermovir (Study Day 0), using the dose bands. A full pharmacokinetics (PK) profile will then be obtained over the next 24 hours, and blood specimens will be shipped immediately to the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) Pharmacokinetic Lab and processed in real time. Within = 7 days, pharmacokinetics (PK) results will be conveyed to the study site. If the Area Under the Curve (AUC24) is =100,000 ngxhr/mL (see footnote a in Table 1), the subject will initiate a 14-day course of once-daily oral letermovir at the same dose as utilized on Dose Finding Day. This duration of letermovir therapy was selected based upon our earlier observation in this population that patients with symptomatic congenital Cytomegalovirus (CMV) disease who achieve viral suppression to =2.5 log by day 14 of valganciclovir therapy and then maintain it over the next 4 months are statistically more likely to have improved hearing across the first two years of life (22). If the observed letermovir exposure of the subject is \> 100,000 ngxhr/mL, the once-daily oral letermovir dose that will be used will be adjusted down in 2.5 mg increments. Oral valganciclovir (16 mg/kg/dose BID) will begin within the first month of life, as standard of care; initiation of valganciclovir can be concomitant with or prior to initiation of the 14-day course of letermovir (but will not start before obtaining the pharmacokinetics (PK) specimens following the single dose of letermovir on the Dose Finding Day). This is similar to the intensification approach that has been evaluated in the management of patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus (23-25). The day that the 14-day course of letermovir begins for Group 1 subjects will be known as Study Day 1. Serial blood samples will be obtained on Study Days 1, 5, 10, and 14 for safety chemistry and hematology labs and for Cytomegalovirus (CMV) viral loads. Cytomegalovirus (CMV) viral load will be followed as well on Study Days 21 and 42 to assess for rebound in Cytomegalovirus (CMV) following cessation of letermovir treatment on Study Day 14. Saliva and urine viral loads will be followed at these timepoint as well. Full pharmacokinetics (PK) profiles for both letermovir and ganciclovir will be obtained on Study Day 10. In addition, sparse pharmacokinetics (PK) sampling will be obtained on Study Days 1, 5, and 14. Adverse events will be assessed at each study visit during treatment, and at Study Days 21 and 42 (4 weeks after the last study drug dose). Subjects then will continue on oral valganciclovir as routine clinical care to complete an anticipated 6 month duration of total therapy. The primary Objective is to determine the systemic exposure (AUC24) of letermovir following administration of oral letermovir granules in infants with symptomatic congenital CMV disease.

ARTEMIS - A Research Study to Look at How Ziltivekimab Works Compared to Placebo in People With a Heart Attack (ARTEMIS)
The research study is being done to see if ziltivekimab can be used to treat people who were admitted to hospital because of a heart attack. Ziltivekimab might reduce development of heart disease, thereby preventing new heart attacks or strokes. Participants will either get ziltivekimab (active medicine) or placebo (a dummy medicine which has no effect on the body). Which treatment participants get is decided by chance. The chance of getting ziltivekimab or placebo is the same. The participant will need to inject the study medicine into a flat skin surface in there stomach, thigh, or upper arm once every month. Ziltivekimab is not yet approved in any country or region in the world. It is a new medicine that doctors cannot prescribe. The study will last for about 2 years.

Efficacy of LoDoCo in Improving Exercise Capacity Among Patients With HFpEF and Inflammation
The purpose of this research study is to determine the effectiveness of low dose colchicine (LoDoCo) on measures of exercise capacity, physical function, frailty, and quality of life, among patients with heart failure with chronic stable preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and systemic inflammation. The use of LoDoCo in this study is considered investigational as it has not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of exercise capacity in patients with HFpEF. Participants will undergo a 1-day screening that includes a blood draw and physical examination. If deemed eligible for the study, participants will undergo a baseline visit within 2 weeks of screening visit that includes physical examination, exercise testing, echocardiography and completion of quality-of-life surveys. Participants will also be randomized at this visit (randomly assigned to a group) to receive either LoDoCo or placebo (inactive substance) for 3 months. Participants will be called back at 3 months for repeat physical examination, blood draws, echocardiography, exercise testing and completion of quality-of-life surveys. Each visit will take about 3 hours. Total study duration is about 3 months.

Chemotherapy Combined With Immunotherapy Versus Immunotherapy Alone for Older Adults With Stage IIIB-IV Lung Cancer, The ACHIEVE Trial
This phase III trial compares the effect of adding chemotherapy to immunotherapy (pembrolizumab) versus immunotherapy alone in treating patients with stage IIIB-IV lung cancer. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Chemotherapy drugs work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving pembrolizumab and chemotherapy may help stabilize lung cancer.
