Dyspnea in Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder
Hypermobile EDS (hEDS)Hypermobility SyndromeIndividuals with hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (hEDS) and Hypermobility Spectrum Disorders (HSD) often experience dyspnea. Inspiratory Muscle Training (IMT) has been shown to improve dyspnea and respiratory muscle function; however, the impact of IMT in combination with whole-body exercise training on respiratory muscle strength, dyspnea, and daily function remains unknown. The objectives of this research are i) to evaluate dyspnea, respiratory muscle strength and function, ventilatory parameters, and health-related quality of life (HRQL) in individuals with hEDS and HSD compared to healthy age and sex-matched controls, ii) to explore the contributors to dyspnea during exercise with a specific focus on respiratory muscle structure and function in hEDS and HSD patients and healthy controls, and iii) to assess whether the combination of IMT and whole-body exercise training will be more effective than whole-body exercise training alone in improving participant outcomes in hEDS and HSD participants. It is hypothesized that i) hEDS and HSD participants will have lower respiratory muscle strength, higher peripheral airway resistance, lower HRQL, and higher anxiety and depression levels compared to healthy controls, ii) the contributors to increased exercise induced dyspnea will include decreased respiratory muscle strength, increased airway resistance, and greater prefrontal cortical neural activity, and iii) the combination of IMT and whole-body exercise training will be superior to whole-body training alone for improving dyspnea, respiratory muscle strength and endurance, aerobic capacity, HRQL, anxiety, and depression.

This will be a dose escalation, open label, single-center study in adult with frailty syndrome. UMC119-06-05 is ex vivo cultured human umbilical cord tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells product which is intended for treatment of frailty syndrome.
A Study of Elaprase in Children and Adults With Hunter Syndrome (Mucopolysaccharidosis II) in India...
Hunter SyndromeThe main aim of this study is to learn more about the safety profile of Elaprase in Indian children and adults with hunter syndrome. Participants will receive Elaprase once per week over a 3-hour period which can be reduced to 1 hour as determined by the study doctor. Participants will need to visit the clinic weekly during the duration of the study.
A Dose-Ranging Study to Determine the Efficacy, Safety and Tolerability of AeroFact
Respiratory Distress Syndrome in Premature InfantThe purpose of this two-part Phase 2 study is to assess the safety, tolerability and efficacy of aerosolized SF-RI 1 (AeroFact) when delivered via nCPAP at two different doses.
Cladribine, Idarubicin, Cytarabine, and Quizartinib in Treating Patients With Newly Diagnosed, Relapsed,...
Acute Myeloid LeukemiaBlasts 20 Percent or More of Bone Marrow Nucleated Cells6 moreThis phase I/II trial studies the side effects and how well cladribine, idarubicin, cytarabine, and quizartinib work in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome that is newly diagnosed, has come back (relapsed), or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cladribine, idarubicin, and cytarabine, 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. Quizartinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving quizartinib with cladribine, idarubicin, and cytarabine may help to control acute myeloid leukemia or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome.
Study of Rituximab Monotherapy on Children With New-onset Nephrotic Syndrome: A Randomized Controlled...
Nephrotic Syndrome in ChildrenRituximabThe main objective is to evaluate the effectiveness of Rituximab monotherapy versus steroid therapy on children with new-onset nephrotic syndrome within the 52-week follow-up.
Impact of Alpha Lipoic Acid Efficacy in Burning Mouth Syndrome
Burning Mouth SyndromeA double-blind placebo-controlled trial is conducted in order to evaluate the efficacy of alpha lipoic acid (ALA) and determine the statistical significance of the outcome variables. Burning mouth syndrome (BMS) is defined as an oral burning sensation in the absence of clinical signs which could justify the syndrome. Recent studies suggest the existence of neurological factors as a possible cause of the disease.
Safety and Efficacy of TSHA-102 in Adult Females With Rett Syndrome (REVEAL Adult Study)
Rett SyndromeThe REVEAL Adult Study is a multi-center, Phase 1/2 open-label, dose-escalation study of TSHA-102, an investigational gene therapy, in adult females with Rett syndrome. The safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of two dose levels will be evaluated. The study duration is estimated to be up to 63 months.
Venetoclax in Combination With ASTX727 for the Treatment of Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia and...
Chronic Myelomonocytic LeukemiaMyelodysplastic Syndrome2 moreThis phase II trial tests whether decitabine and cedazuridine (ASTX727) in combination with venetoclax work better than ASTX727 alone at decreasing symptoms of bone marrow cancer in patients with chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML), myelodysplastic syndrome/myeloproliferative neoplasm (MDS/MPN) with excess blasts. Blasts are immature blood cells. Decitabine is in a class of medications called hypomethylation agents. It works by helping the bone marrow produce normal blood cells and by killing abnormal cells in the bone marrow. Cobimetinib is used in patients whose cancer has a mutated (changed) form of a gene called BRAF. It is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of an abnormal protein that signals cancer cells to multiply. This helps slow or stop the spread of cancer cells. Venetoclax is in a class of medications called B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2) inhibitors. It may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking Bcl-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. The combination of ASTX727 and venetoclax may be more effective in reducing the cancer signs and symptoms in patients with CMML, or MDS/MPN with excess blasts.
