Tolerance

The purpose of this study is to find out if an investigational treatment will allow kidney transplant recipients to better accept their new kidney and stop immunosuppressive medicines. This study is for kidney transplant recipients who receive a kidney from a sibling donor. The investigational treatment is started after kidney transplant. It begins with a regimen of a drug called rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin (rATG) combined with radiation therapy (known as total lymphoid irradiation, or TLI) to the lymph nodes and spleen. This is followed by an infusion of blood stem cells, which will be donated by the same sibling who donated their kidney. Researchers think that this treatment allows immune cells from the donor and recipient to live side by side, a condition referred to as "mixed chimerism." Mixed chimerism may help create a state of "tolerance" in kidney transplant recipients in which all immunosuppressive medications can be stopped without rejection of the transplanted kidney. This study will test whether (1) the investigational treatment will allow patients to stop immunosuppressive medications after their kidney transplant and (2) if the treatment impacts the rate of kidney rejection and the side effects of immunosuppressive medications.

The researchers are investigating if the Self-Supporting Nasopharyngeal Airway (ssNPA) device can be used in the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea in children with Hypotonic Upper Airway Obstruction (HUAO).

The primary objective is to assess the safety of the addition of venetoclax to reduced intensity conditioning for HLA-matched and haploidentical combined HSC and kidney transplantation as measured by stable full donor hematopoiesis and absence of CTCAE grade IV or V toxicity attributable to venetoclax.

Open-label, prospective, single-arm, multicenter study to determine effects of Ertugliflozin on liver fat, liver fibrosis \& glycemic control in subjects with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) with Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD)/Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH)

This study will explore the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of KP405 as a potential new treatment for Parkinson's disease.

The placement of a Ureteral Double-J Stent as an emergency treatment or preparation for endoscopy after Colic nephritis is very frequent. It is often poorly supported, most often by young patients. A rich symptomatology is related to the probe responsible for a limitation of activities that can have a strong socio-economic impact. The objective of this study is the identification of the predictive factors of poor tolerance.

This study will explore the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of LPH-5.

Rhinitis is inflammation of the inside of the nose. Symptoms of rhinitis include itchiness, sneezing, and a "runny" nose (rhinorrhea). There are many different causes for rhinitis, including allergies, age, different irritants in the air, overacting nervous system, and others. Many current treatments for rhinitis are not helpful or are unable to be used for long periods of time. Capsaicin ("Kap-Sey-Uh-Sin") is a natural product that is found in many spicy foods, including hot peppers. This natural product has been used as a lotion to prevent pain, and scientists have found that it may reduce the symptoms of rhinitis when used as a spray in the nose. However, capsaicin is known to cause a burning sensation. This study is needed so we can figure out what doses of capsaicin cause this burning sensation, and to what level these doses cause discomfort. Capsaicin can also cause a small degree of tearing from the eyes when used as a spray in the nose, and can also cause the nose to become "runny" (rhinorrhea). When the safest dose of capsaicin spray is found, that dose can be used to treat people with rhinitis that is not getting better from standard treatments.

This study is designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of two distinct dietary supplement beverage formulations designed to maintain normal blood pressure. In this study, safety and tolerability will be assessed among otherwise healthy, normotensive individuals.
