The TSC Biosample Repository collects and stores samples of blood, DNA, and tissues that scientists can request to use in their research. The samples we collect are all linked to clinical data in the TSC Natural History Database. The TSC Natural History Database captures clinical data to document the impact of the disease on a person's health over his or her lifetime. This data may be collected retrospectively or prospectively.

The purpose of this clinical trial is to learn about the safety and effects of the study medicine (called Fosmanogepix) for the potential treatment of candidemia and/or invasive candidiasis, a life-threatening fungal infection caused by several species of yeast called Candida. The study is seeking patients who have a diagnosis of candidemia and/or invasive candidiasis. Two-thirds of all patients will receive the study medication fosmanogepix Intravenous (IV) infusion followed by optional fosmanogepix tablets. One-third of all patients will receive a standard of care regimen of caspofungin Intravenous (IV) infusion followed by optional fluconazole capsules. Fosmanogepix or caspofungin will first be given as an Intravenous (IV) infusion directly into a vein in the arm each day at the study clinic. Fosmanogepix tablets or fluconazole capsules will be taken orally by mouth daily either at the study clinic, or at home if patients are well enough to be discharged from the hospital. The treatment effect in patients receiving fosmanogepix to those receiving caspofungin/ fluconazole will be compared. The primary aim is to show that fosmanogepix is not inferior (not worse) to caspofungin/ fluconazole with a noninferiority margin of 15%. The duration of study treatment and number of study visits will vary depending on how long the patient will be treated for the infection. Treatment will continue for a maximum of 6 weeks depending on when the infection is cleared and whether other symptoms related to the infection have improved. There will also be a follow-up visit 6 weeks after the study treatment was stopped.

The study is a global, multi-center safety and efficacy trial of epcoritamab, an antibody also known as EPKINLY™ and GEN3013 (DuoBody®-CD3xCD20). Epcoritamab will be tested either in Relapsed/refractory (R/R) chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) as: - Monotherapy, or - Combination therapy: - epcoritamab + venetoclax - epcoritamab + pirtobrutinib In Non-United States (US) Participants Only: Treatment-naïve (TN) high risk (HR) (CLL): • epcoritamab + pirtobrutinib Combination therapy for Richter's Syndrome (RS): - epcoritamab + lenalidomide - epcoritamab + R-CHOP (i.e., rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin hydrochloride, vincristine [Oncovin®] and prednisone). The study includes participants with R/R or TN HR CLL (non-US participants only)/small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) and participants with RS. The trial consists of two parts, a dose-escalation phase (phase Ib) and an expansion phase (phase II). Participants with RS are only included in the expansion phase. Epcoritamab will be injected subcutaneously (under the skin). Standard-of-care and combination treatments (venetoclax, pirtobrutinib, lenalidomide, and R-CHOP) will be given either orally (by mouth) or intravenously (in a vein). Study details include: - Study duration will be up to 5 years after the last participant's first treatment in the trial. - The treatment duration for each participant will be between 12 months (1 year) and 24 months (2 years), depending upon the treatment arm assigned. - The visit frequency will be either weekly, every other week, or monthly, depending upon the part of the study. All participants will receive active drug; no one will be given placebo.

The AV-MDR is a prospective, non-randomized, open-label, multi-center registry. The purpose of the AV-MDR study is to proactively collect and evaluate clinical data on the usage of the devices in scope within their intended use with the aim of confirming safety and performance throughout their expected lifetime, ensuring the continued acceptability of identified risks, detecting emerging risks on the basis of factual evidence, ensuring the continued acceptability of the benefit-risk ratio, and identifying possible systematic misuse or off-label usage such that the intended use can be verified as appropriate.

This multi-centered, randomized controlled trial will evaluate the safety and efficacy of home use of the novel Reia System (RS), which includes the Reia pessary and applicator, compared to standard pessary care (Gellhorn or ring with/without support without knob) among women with stage II-IV pelvic organ prolapse (POP). A total of 182 participants will be recruited among pessary naïve patients who are symptomatic and choose a vaginal pessary for management of their POP from study sites specializing in Urogynecology and Reconstructive Pelvic Surgery (URPS). Participants will be assigned via 1:1 randomization using computer generated numbers in permutated groups of variable block sizes to either the intervention (the Reia System, RS) or standard pessary care (SPC) stratified by site. Participation in this trial will involve a total of four visits over six months. The primary outcome measure will be satisfaction measured at the six-month time point. Secondary outcomes will include validated surveys to assess quality of life, number of self-management events, ease/difficulty of pessary insertion/removal, importance of ability to self-manage pessary, and adverse events. Specific Aims Aim 1: To compare satisfaction with pessary use and management between subjects randomized to the Reia System and those randomized to standard of care pessary. Aim 2: To assess successful fitting, number of refitting visits, number of self-management events and continued pessary use over a 6-month period between subjects randomized to the Reia System and those randomized to standard of care pessary. Aim 3: To compare ease/difficulty of pessary use and importance of ability to self-manage, as well as quality of life over a 6-month period between subjects randomized to the Reia System and those randomized to standard of care pessary. Aim 4: To measure rates of adverse events and risk factors for adverse events over a 6-month period between subjects randomized to the Reia System and those randomized to standard of care pessary.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if continuous glucose monitoring works better than self-monitoring of blood glucose (fingersticks) to treat type 2 diabetes in pregnancy. It will also learn about all risk factors (biologic, personal, social) for maternal and infant complications in type 2 diabetes pregnancies. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does continuous glucose monitoring improve infant outcomes compared to self-monitoring of blood glucose? 2. Does continuous glucose monitoring improve maternal diabetes control and other maternal outcomes compared to self-monitoring of blood glucose? 3. What other factors increase the risk of maternal and infant complications? Participants will: 1. Use continuous glucose monitoring or self-monitoring of blood glucose to monitor blood sugar control from enrollment until delivery 2. Have blood drawn at enrollment, 24 weeks, 34 weeks and delivery to measure hemoglobin A1c levels and store blood for future analysis 3. Complete surveys about social support, environmental stressors, diabetes distress and glucose monitoring satisfaction at research visits 4. Have umbilical cord blood collected at delivery for analysis

Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer+ (LGBTQ+) individuals experience a breadth of mental health disparities. Reducing these disparities is an area of key psychological research. Minority stress is theorized to be an underlying source of the disparities (Meyer, 2003). Minority stress can be conceptualized as the internalized stigma that results from experiences of social marginalization. By reducing minority stress, it is hypothesized that generalized mental illness indicators might be reduced and indicators of wellbeing increased.

The goal of this observational study is to help us understand more about the best ways to help individuals living with Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) get the best care. The main question it aims to answer is: How to find individuals unaffiliated from SCD specialist care use three distinct pathways? Once unaffiliated individuals are found using the pathways, Investigators will employ linkage coordinators (trained staff) to engage these patients in care. Participants will be asked to fill out an assessment survey which will cover areas such as previous and current treatment, clinic and hospital experience, pain, and quality of life. Participants will also be given the option of participation in a 1-hour long interview how they feel about treatment for sickle cell disease including clinic experience, pain, and quality of life?
