The primary purpose of the study is to assess safety, and to identify the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of tolinapant in combination with oral decitabine/cedazuridine in Phase 1 and to assess preliminary efficacy as determined by overall response rate (ORR) in Phase 2.

Severe depression is devastating for those affected and is often associated with significant risk of suicide. Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is a highly effective acute treatment for severe depression, but its use and acceptability are limited by cognitive side effects. Of these, retrograde memory loss is most concerning, and can be long-term. The introduction of ultrabrief right unilateral (UBRUL) ECT into clinical practice has been an important step in reducing the risk of memory impairment, but significant deficits still occur. A new form of UBRUL ECT which utilises a Frontoparietal electrode placement represents a further development. Preliminary data suggest that Frontoparietal UBRUL has good efficacy and less cognitive side effects than UBRUL given using the conventional Temporoparietal electrode placement. Designed as a pivotal trial, this protocol will be the first RCT comparing these two forms of ECT, producing the rigorous efficacy and safety data required to change clinical practice/policy. This is a multicentre, parallel group RCT with 1:1 allocation ratio between Frontoparietal (intervention) and Temporoparietal (comparator) forms of UBRUL ECT. Participation will involve receiving randomised acute ECT under blinded conditions during the randomised acute treatment period (typically around 4 weeks), then completion of a 24-week follow-up period which commences after the cessation of all acute ECT. The study protocol aims to provide 12 randomised acute ECT treatments, though the number of treatments (and hence the length of the randomised acute treatment period) can be adjusted by the participant's own treating/admitting psychiatrist according to their clinical judgement.

An observational cohort study that will assess the efficacy of Whole Lung Lavage in workers with silicosis or silica-induced bronchitis.

A prospective study in paediatric, adolescent and young adult patients aged 7 to 18 years to validate the use of the Apple Watch's electrocardiogram (ECG) function in measuring QT prolongation during and or after cancer therapy.

People with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) develop high blood pressure and kidney disease. Previous studies have shown that a commonly occurring chemical, nitric oxide (NO), is reduced in ADPKD, and may contribute, in part, to high blood pressure in this condition. Nitrate is found in high concentrations naturally in beetroots, and increases NO. The aim of this study is to determine if beetroot juice reduces blood pressure in hypertensive people with ADPKD.

Chronic Rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a chronic inflammatory condition of the nasal passage and paranasal sinuses that places significant burden on affected patients and global healthcare systems. Current treatments for CRS such as long-term antibiotics, anti-inflammatory drugs, and surgery often reduce symptoms and signs of disease temporarily, however long-term results are much less satisfactory. Recently, the theory of a damaged microbiome (dysbiosis) as a cause or promoting factor behind CRS has gained increasing evidence from the scientific community. A condition of the gut with microbial dysbiosis (c.difficile) has previously employed microbiota transplant treatment with great success in long-term health outcomes. Such treatments are shown to repopulate bacterial microenvironment and restore protective commensal bacterial load. A pilot study conducted by this study team trialed a novel intervention of a Nasal Microbiota Transplant in a small group of participants. Preliminary results suggested significantly improved CRS symptoms after treatment with a healthy donor microbiota transplant, compared to the pre-transplant baseline. The addition of a randomized-control trial with inclusion of a placebo group is the next step. In this study, investigators aim to perform a two-arm, double-blinded, phase II randomized controlled clinical trial in order to assess the efficacy of a Nasal Microbiota Transplant against a placebo in a cohort of CRS patients without Nasal Polyps (CRSsNP).

In this study, researchers will learn more about a study drug called BIIB080. The study will focus on participants with mild cognitive impairment or mild dementia due to AD. The main question researchers are trying to answer is if BIIB080 can slow the worsening of AD more than placebo. It will focus on what dose of BIIB080 slows worsening of AD the most. To help answer this question, researchers will use the Clinical Dementia Rating-Sum of Boxes, also known as the CDR-SB. * Clinicians use the CDR-SB to measure several categories of dementia symptoms. * The results for each category are added together for a total score. Lower scores are better. Researchers will also learn more about the safety of BIIB080. The study will be split into 2 parts. The 1st part is the Placebo-Controlled Period. The 2nd part is the Long-Term Extension (LTE) Period. The 2nd part of the study will help researchers learn about the long-term safety of BIIB080, and how it affects the participant's daily life, thinking, and memory abilities in the longer term. A description of how the study will be done is given below. * After screening, participants will first receive either a low dose or high dose of BIIB080, or a placebo, as an injection into the fluid around the spinal cord (cerebrospinal fluid). A placebo looks like the study drug but contains no real medicine. * Participants will receive BIIB080 or placebo once every 12 weeks or 24 weeks. * After 76 weeks of treatment in the Placebo-Controlled Period, eligible participants will move onto the Extension Treatment period, which will last 96 weeks. * In the extension period, participants who received placebo will be switched to high dose BIIB080 every 12 or 24 weeks. * Participants may be in the study for up to 201 weeks, or about 4 years. This includes the screening and follow-up periods. * Participants can continue to take certain medications for AD. Participants must be on the same dose of medication for at least 8 weeks before the screening period. * After the screening period, most participants will visit the clinic every 6 weeks.

INCLINE-101 is an open label, multicenter Phase 1/2 study designed to evaluate safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and preliminary anti-tumor activity of TAC-001 administered intravenously.

Tibial plateau fractures are often complex fractures and need a good preoperative planning. The investigators think that a 3D virtual planning software will help the surgeons to get a better understanding of the fracture and therefore want to study the value of 3D virtual planning software in the preoperative planning of tibial plateau fractures. The investigators hypothesize that this software will shorten the duration of surgery, decrease the peroperative bloodloss and the number of complications. Patients with tibial plateau fractures who need surgical treatment will be asked to participate in this study. After participants have given informed consent, they will be randomized between a 'traditional preoperative planning' and a '3D virtual preoperative planning' group. Surgeons will plan their surgery using traditional planning tools (X-rays and CT scan) or traditional planning tools ánd the 3D virtual planning software. 6 weeks, 3 months and 6 months after surgery, participants will be asked to fill in 2 questionnaires about knee pain and knee function. After surgery a CT scan or X-ray will be performed conform standard of care in the hospital.

This study is designed as a single centre, double blind, placebo controlled, randomized, SAD/FE/MAD, safety, tolerance and PK study of BMB-101 in healthy adult subjects. The study will be conducted as a 3-part study.
