A Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Preliminary Efficacy of RLS-0071 in Newborns With Moderate or Severe Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy Undergoing Therapeutic Hypothermia

Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy

Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) affects approximately 4,000 to 12,000 persons annually in the United States. Mortality from HIE has been reported up to 60%, with at least 25% of survivors left with significant neurocognitive disability. Despite this vital unmet medical need, no pharmacological adjunct or alternative therapy has proven beneficial in improving outcomes in neonatal HIE. RLS-0071 is a novel peptide being developed for the treatment of neonatal HIE. This study is designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of RLS-0071 in the treatment of newborns with moderate or severe HIE.

Improving Medication Adherence Using Family-focused and Literacy-sensitive Strategies

Medication Adherence · Heart Failure

People with heart failure who do not take their medications as prescribed are at high risk of complications leading to hospitalization, death and poor quality of life. In the proposed intervention, nurses will use easy-to-understand language to coach patients and their care partners to help them work together and build skills to overcome their individual barriers to adherence in order to 1) improve and sustain patient medication adherence; 2) reduce hospitalization; 3) improve quality of life. If effective, this intervention will support long-term medication adherence, thus reducing hospitalizations related to heart failure and quality of life.

Testing the Use of Combination Therapy in Adult Patients With Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma, the EQUATE Trial

Plasma Cell Myeloma · RISS Stage I Plasma Cell Myeloma · RISS Stage II Plasma Cell Myeloma

This phase III trial compares the combination of four drugs (daratumumab, bortezomib, lenalidomide and dexamethasone) to the use of a three drug combination (daratumumab, lenalidomide and dexamethasone). Bortezomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Chemotherapy drugs, such as lenalidomide, 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. Daratumumab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Anti-inflammatory drugs, such as dexamethasone lower the body's immune response and are used with other drugs in the treatment of some types of cancer. Adding bortezomib to daratumumab, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone may be more effective in shrinking the cancer or preventing it from returning, compared to continuing on daratumumab, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone.

Amiodarone-Infused CardiaMend Patches for the Prevention of New-Onset POAF in Cardiac Surgery Subjects

Atrial Fibrillation, Postoperative

The goal of this clinical trial is to is to test the safety of a new way to deliver a commonly used drug (amiodarone) used in heart surgery by placing a patch containing the drug directly on the heart instead of in an IV (vein). Participating subjects must be 20-85 year old males or females. Up to 80 participants having cardiac surgery at the University of Louisville will be involved in this study. The main questions this study aims to answer are: 1. Is the patch safe? 2. Does the patch lower the rate of atrial fibrillation (irregular heart rhythm) after cardiac surgery? Researchers will compare up to 3 different doses of the amiodarone patches (low, medium and high) to the usual treatment (Standard of Care) to see if there are differences (increases or decreases) in heart rhythms after cardiac surgery across study groups. Participants will be placed in one of 4 study groups: * Standard of Care (20 participants) * Low dose patch (20 participants) * Medium dose patch (20 participants) * High dose patch (20 participants) Participants will be monitored closely by their doctor(s) during the study and would: * Agree to participate after having their doctor, or a member of the team, explain the study in detail and allowing them to ask any questions they would like. * Sign an Informed Consent Form which will describe the study and tests in full. * Agree to have their doctor and his/her research team record your medical information, draw blood, and perform electrocardiograms, or EKGs (quick, painless test that measures the electrical activity of the heart) and echocardiograms (image of heart) to monitor their heart. * Agree to receive training on the portable EKG recorder and to use it at home approximately 30 days and 6 months after their surgery to monitor their heart. * Agree to return to the hospital approximately 30 days and 6 months after their surgery for a study visit. Participant involvement will be approximately 7 months total.

Mitigation of Cardiovascular Disease Risks in Children With Extreme Obesity

Obesity and Overweight · Obese Adolescents · Weight Management

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the drug semaglutide changes markers of disease risk as it relates to weight in children ages 12-15 years old who are obese (class 2 or 3). The main questions it aims to answer are: * How do the rate of weight loss, body mass index (BMI), body composition, heart structure and function, and exercise ability interact with one another in the study population at enrollment? * How do risk markers of disease change over the study in the study participants who are given semaglutides to help with weight loss? * Are there differences in the above factors between males and females and are there key factors to help improve the outcomes? Participants will be given semaglutide for this study. During the course of the study, participants will: * have two cardiac MRI scans OR two cardiac echocardiograms (one before starting semaglutide and one around 12 months after taking the drug) * have body composition and fitness levels assessed twice (before semaglutide and around 12 months after taking it) and have urine specific gravity (USG) measured * have extra blood drawn when labs their doctor orders are already being drawn (once at the beginning of the study, once around 6 months after enrollment, and once at the end of the study) * have follow up visits with the study doctor * be asked to take a pregnancy test if they are female and have started menstruation
