Neurocircuitry Mechanisms and Efficacy of Lumateperone as Adjunctive Therapy for Major Depressive Disorder and History of Early Life Abuse

The purpose of this clinical research study is to understand how effective and safe an investigational study drug called lumateperone is and whether it works to reduce the severity of depressive symptoms in adults with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) and early life trauma. The main questions it aims to answer are: Aim 1: To assess the efficacy of lumateperone 42 mg administered once daily compared with placebo in the treatment of patients with Major Depressive Disorder and early life abuse. Aim 2: To assess neurocircuitry encoding of threat and reward learning as predictors of lumateperone response and as mechanisms of treatment action, and assess the change from pre-dose to post-dose of task-evoked brain activation.

A Long-Term Study to Learn About The Study Medicine Called Ritlecitinib in Children With Severe Alopecia Areata.

The purpose of this clinical trial is to learn about long-term safety and long-term effects of the study medicine (called ritlecitinib) for the potential treatment of severe alopecia areata, a condition that causes hair loss. This study is seeking participants who have: * previously completed one of Pfizer's pediatric studies for Alopecia Areata (B7981027 or B7981031). * at least 50% scalp hair loss due to alopecia areata (for participants enrolling from the study B7981031). * received varicella vaccination (2 doses) or have been infected by varicella zoster virus before based on blood test reports. All participants in this study will receive the study medicine (ritlecitinib). Participants who received ritlecitinib higher or lower doses in the parent Study B7981027 will continue receiving the same ritlecitinib dose in this trial. Participants who received placebo in the parent Study B7981027 and all participants from parent Study B7981031 will receive either higher or lower dose of ritlecitinib in this trial. The study medicine is a capsule that is taken by mouth. It is taken 1 time each day at home. The study will help see if ritlecitinib is safe and effective. Participants will take part in this study for a duration of up to 3 years (36 months). During this time, they will have 17 study visits at the study clinic. The study team will also call participants once a month over the phone.

Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, and Safety Profile of Understudied Drugs Administered to Children Per Standard of Care (POPS)

The study investigators are interested in learning more about how drugs, that are given to children by their health care provider, act in the bodies of children and young adults in hopes to find the most safe and effective dose for children. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the PK of understudied drugs currently being administered to children per SOC as prescribed by their treating provider.

Comparison of Uncomplicated Candidemia Therapy Duration in Children

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare antifungal therapy duration in pediatric uncomplicated candidemia. The specific aims are: * Compare the desirability of outcome ranking in children with uncomplicated candidemia randomized to 7 additional days of antifungal therapy (standard-course) versus no additional antifungal therapy (short-course) after already receiving 7 days of echinocandin therapy. * Compare the 14-day desirability of outcome measure for subjects with a negative and those with a positive T2Candida® biomarker at day 7 of therapy within randomized groups. Participants meeting eligibility criteria will be approached and consented between day 5 and 7 of primary systemic antifungal therapy. On day 7 of primary systemic antifungal therapy, inclusion and exclusion criteria will again be reviewed for consented patients and those still eligible will be randomized 1:1 to the two study arms. Researchers will compare no additional antifungal therapy (short-course) versus 7 additional days of systemic antifungal therapy (standard-course) in pediatric patients with uncomplicated candidemia who have already received 7 days of primary systemic antifungal therapy to see if shorter durations are as effective as longer durations in treating uncomplicated candidemia.

Impact of Primary Language on Treatment and Outcomes in Inflammatory Bowel Disease

A thorough discussion of treatment options to manage inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including the risks and benefits of each class of medication, can be a complex discussion and time consuming. Having to use a translator adds an additional layer of time and complexity to these discussions as well as potential misunderstanding. Further, in addition to language, cultural differences can also play into treatment acceptance. This study aims to determine the impact of primary language on the selection of treatment for IBD and on disease outcomes.

The Role of microRNA-210 in Regulating Oxidative Stress in Patients With PAD

MicroRNA-210 (miR-210) can be a potential therapeutic target of patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD). Recent evidence suggests the role of miR-210 and oxidative stress in the pathophysiology of PAD and its association with mitochondrial function, oxidative metabolism, walking distances and quality of life. The protocol evaluates the mechanisms which miR-210 regulates oxidative stress and provides evidence of potential therapeutic strategies.

Long-term Follow-up Study of Risdiplam in Participants With Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA)

A multi-center, longitudinal, prospective, non-comparative study to investigate the long-term safety and effectiveness of risdiplam, prescribed based on clinician judgment as per the Evrysdi® U.S. Package Information (USPI) in adult and pediatric participants with SMA. In this study, participants will be followed for approximately 24 months from enrollment or until withdrawal of consent, loss to follow-up, or death. Participants who discontinue risdiplam may still remain in the study if they agree to continue participating in the follow-up assessments. An optional sub-study was planned to assess the feasibility, acceptability, and adherence of remote assessment of motor and bulbar functions in participants with SMA using wearable and smartphone-based biosensors. This substudy was withdrawn upon implementation of protocol version 4.
