An Addiction-Based Mobile Health Weight Loss Intervention With Coaching

To test the effectiveness of an addiction-based weight loss intervention, embodied first as a smartphone app with telephone coaching (AppCoach) compared to (1) addiction model based weight-loss app alone (App) and (2) multi-disciplinary in-clinic weight loss intervention (Clinic) on weight outcomes of overweight and obese adolescents at 3, 6, 12 and 18 months post enrollment.

Diurnal Study

This study is a randomized, double-blind, active-controlled, titrated, parallel arm, multicenter study. It will compare the efficacy, safety and tolerability of twice daily Chronocort with twice daily IRHC (Cortef®) over a randomized treatment period of up to 52 weeks in participants aged 16 years and over with known classic CAH due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency. The primary efficacy assessment of biochemical responder rate and the key secondary assessments of dose responder rate and mean total daily dose will be assessed after 52 weeks of randomized treatment.

Neurocrine Ped Study

This is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of crinecerfont versus placebo administered twice daily (bid) with breakfast and evening meals for28 weeks in approximately 81 pediatric subjects with classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) due to21-hydroxylase deficiency. Eligible subjects will be randomly assigned in a 2:1 ratio (active:placebo) to either crinecerfont (25 mg bid via oral solution for subjects 10 to <20 kg, 50 mg bid via oral solution for subjects 20 to <55 kg, or 100 mg bid via oral capsules for subjects ≥55 kg) or matching placebo (oral solution placebo for subjects <55 kg and oral capsule placebo for subjects ≥55 kg). Dose assignment from Day 1 to Week 28 will be based on the subject’s weight at Day 1. After the 28-week placebo-controlled treatment period, there will be a 24-week, open-label treatment period, during which all subjects will receive crinecerfont at doses based on their Week 28 body weight.

Phase I Temsirolimus

To test a new experimental drug Temisirolimus - Temsirolimus (also known as Torisel®) is approved for kidney cell cancer treatment in adults - in combination with approved chemotherapy drugs - in the hopes of finding a drug combination that may be effective against leukemia and non-hodgkin’s lymphoma that has come back after initial treatment. To find the highest dose that can be given without casing severe side effects.

Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS)

This research is being done to test the safety and effectiveness of intranasal carbetocin to treat Prader Willi Syndrome.

Therapeutic Advances in Childhood Leukemia and Lymphoma Consortium (TACL) / Amgen Carfilzomib study

Carfilzomib (also known as Kyprolis®) is approved to be used in certain adult patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (myeloma that returns after a successful course of treatment or myeloma that does not respond to treatment). Multiple myeloma is a type of blood cancer. Carfilzomib is not approved to treat ALL. It has not been given in combination with the other drugs used in this study. This study is being done to find out if carfilzomib can be safely given before and during treatment with standard chemotherapy drugs.

Therapeutic Advances in Childhood Leukemia and Lymphoma Consortium (TACL) Marqibo® ALL study

This study aims to evaluate the side effects (good and bad) of giving Vincristine Suflate Liposome Infection (also known as Marqibo®) - a drug approved for leukemia treatment in adults but that is experimental in children - with other standard chemotherapy drugs and to measure how effective the combination is at treating children and young adults with leukemia that has come back after initial treatment.
