NCT03969589
Women represent the fastest growing population within the VHA. Many are of reproductive age and experience mental health concerns. Women with mental illness are at greater risk for unplanned pregnancy and poor pregnancy outcomes due to factors related to mental health and mental health treatment. Similarly, mental health concerns (e.g., impact of pregnancy on mental illness, psychiatric medications and pregnancy) can affect reproductive life goals and plans. Reproductive life planning (RLP) interventions that include considerations and concerns women Veterans with mental illness face are needed. The investigators adapted existing RLP materials to create an interactive, individualized, client-centered RLP intervention designed to help women Veterans with mental illness develop a mental health-informed reproductive life plan and reproductive life goals (RLP-MH). The current study aims to determine if the RLP-MH intervention is feasible and acceptable to women Veterans and if it increases engagement in behaviors to address RLP goals.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the infectivity, safety, and immunogenicity of the recombinant live-attenuated respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccines RSV ΔNS2/Δ1313/I1314L or RSV 276 when delivered as nose drops to RSV-seronegative infants 6 to 24 months of age. This study was a companion study to Center for Immunization Research (CIR) 321.
NCT02519777
People infected with HIV often have cognitive dysfunction even if they are on antiretroviral therapy (ART) and have undetectable viral loads. The study evaluated if the addition of maraviroc (MVC) and dolutegravir (DTG) (which are two antiretroviral \[ARV\] medications) to participants' existing ART regimens improved participants' neurocognitive performance.
NCT00519818
This study will test a new, extended release form of hydrocortisone called Chronocort in patients with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). People with CAH do not make enough of the adrenal hormones cortisol and aldosterone, and their adrenal glands make too much of the sex hormone androgen. Medicines called glucocorticoids (hydrocortisone, dexamethasone and prednisone) are currently used to treat CAH, but finding the best dose of these drugs that effectively lowers androgens without causing undesirable side effects, such as weight gain and slow growth rate in children, is often difficult to achieve. Adolescents and adults with CAH due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency may be eligible for this study. Children 16 years of age and older are eligible with confirmation by bone age that they are no longer growing. Participants undergo the following tests and procedures during two inpatient visits one month apart at the NIH Clinical Center: * Medical history and physical examination. * Medications: Following 7 days of Cortef (standard drug treatment for CAH), patients begin taking Chronocort on day 3 of hospitalization and continue the tablets once a day for 1 month. * Blood tests: A catheter (plastic tube) is inserted in a vein and left in place for frequent blood draws in order to avoid repeated needlesticks. Blood is drawn for chemistries, blood count, pregnancy test in women, and for serial tests (up to 26 samples in a 24-hour period) to measure hormone levels. * 24-hour urine test. * Height and weight measurements. Between the two hospitalizations, patients are contacted by NIH weekly to check for possible side effects from Chronocort. Two weeks after the first visit, patients also will have blood drawn by their regular doctor or a local clinic. A few days before the second hospitalization, patients undergo a 20-minute telephone questionnaire about energy level and well being. About 30 days after discharge from the second hospitalization, patients are followed up with a telephone call to see how they are doing.
NCT01716312
Background: * Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE or lupus) is an autoimmune disease, which means the body's immune system mistakenly attacks healthy tissue resulting in inflammation and tissue damage. SLE can involve almost any organ and its symptoms can range in severity from mild to life-threatening; symptoms also vary from person to person. Current treatments for lupus are not effective for some people. Medications used to treat lupus can have serious side effects. * Omalizumab is a drug that has been used to treat severe allergic asthma. It helps to prevent allergic reactions by reducing some antibodies in the blood. These antibodies are also present in some people with Lupus. Researchers want to see if omalizumab is a safe and effective treatment for people with Lupus. Objectives: \- To test the safety of omalizumab for people with lupus. Eligibility: \- Individuals at least 18 years of age who have moderately active Lupus even with standard treatments. Design: * Subject screening will take place at the NIH Clinical Center and will include a medical history, a physical exam, blood and urine laboratory tests, an assessment of Lupus disease activity. Some participants may require some additional testing. All eligible persons who are interested in enrolling will be asked to come back to the NIH within 2 weeks to begin the study. * The study will be conducted in three phases, with a total of 15 study visits over 38 weeks. Two visits will be overnight hospital stays. The rest will be outpatient visits. During each visit the participants will be monitored by doing a physical exam, assessment of their lupus disease activity, review of any treatment related side effects, blood and urine testing. * For the first phase, participants will have infusions (under their skin) of either omalizumab or a placebo. They will have an overnight hospital stay for the first infusion and then an outpatient safety monitor visit 2 weeks after. If subjects safety measures are good they will return in 2 weeks and receive the second dose. They will then get three more doses every 4 weeks which will be given during outpatient visits to the NIH. * In the second phase, which begins at the 16th week of the study, all participants will receive omalizumab. This means that subjects who had been getting omalizumab will continue receiving it and subjects who had been receiving the placebo will now begin getting omalizumab. They will have an overnight hospital stay for this infusion and will return in 2 weeks for a safety monitor visit. If subjects safety measures are good they will return in 2 weeks and receive the next dose. They will then get three more doses every 4 weeks which will be given during outpatient visits to the NIH. * The third phase will be a final series of visits which will take place at week 32 and week 36. During these visits subjects will have a physical exam which includes disease activity assessment, blood and urine tests. No medication will be given during these visits. * All subjects will be given information, instruction and medications for possible allergic reactions to omalizumab. * Throughout the study other tests and procedures will be performed as needed.

NCT03915925
This is a prospective, observational, multicenter cohort study to compare right ventricular dysfunction dependent and independent prognostic models for short-term serous adverse events in patients who are diagnosed with pulmonary embolism in the emergency department. Clinical endpoints are assessed at days 1-5. A thirty-day follow-up phone call is conducted to obtain further clinical endpoints and a quality of life assessment.
NCT03288480
Study PT-112-102, a multicenter, open-label dose-finding and pharmacokinetic study of PT-112 in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. This is designed as a two-part study. In the first part of the study, cohorts of three patients (expanded to six patients in the event of a dose-limiting toxicity) will receive escalating doses of PT-112 until the MTD is reached, based on tolerability observed during the first 28 days of treatment. In the second part of the study, an expansion cohort of 14 patients will be treated at the recommended dose to confirm the tolerability of treatment and evaluate evidence of treatment efficacy.
NCT00126672
This research study is evaluating a drug called rapamycin as a possible treatment for the lumps (or tumors) that form in the kidneys, called angiomyolipomas, in people who have either TSC or LAM. Kidney angiomyolipomas are tumors that are made up of blood vessels, muscle and fat. Rapamycin has been approved to treat other diseases, but it is investigational for treating kidney angiomyolipomas. Investigational means that it is being as a possible treatment for kidney angiomyolipomas but is not currently approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for treating this disease.

NCT03522740
Good communication among patients, their families and loved ones, and their medical care providers is important when figuring out how to treat chronic diseases like kidney disease. A lot of people may not know all of their choices for how to treat kidney disease, and this can lead to rushed decisions or even a sense that there weren't any choices to make. In this study, the investigators are trying to find out if a decision-aid program on a computer can help people with kidney disease have more confidence in their decisions and have better agreement about their decisions with their families and loved ones. The DART study will be conducted at four sites in different areas of the country: Boston, Massachusetts; Portland, Maine; Chicago, Illinois; and San Diego, California. The study will enroll a total of 400 people with kidney disease at these four sites.
NCT01896102
This trial assessed the efficacy and safety of autologous cluster of differentiation 34 (CD34+) hematopoietic stem cells, transduced ex-vivo with Lenti-D lentiviral vector (also called elivaldogene autotemcel or eli-cel), for the treatment of cerebral adrenoleukodystrophy (CALD). A participant's blood stem cells were collected and modified (transduced) using the Lenti-D lentiviral vector encoding human adrenoleukodystrophy protein. After modification (transduction) with the Lenti-D lentiviral vector, the cells were transplanted back into the participant following myeloablative conditioning. Participants in this study will be continuously followed in study LTF-304.
