Thoracolumbar (TL) burst fractures in neurologically intact patients account for approximately 45% of all TL spine injuries. Despite being common fractures, there is significant variability in treatment recommendations encompassing surgery and non-surgical treatment options. The controversy regarding optimal treatment for these injuries is fueled by several studies which suggest a potential benefit to surgical treatment in the realm of patient satisfaction, and the overall socio-economic burden of treatment while other studies demonstrate improved outcomes and lower morbidity with non-surgical treatment. This study aims to perform a prospective cohort analysis investigating the clinical outcome of various treatment alternatives for patients with A3/A4 fractures in the thoracolumbar region. A cost-effectiveness analysis will also be performed to identify costs and benefits of each treatment option. More specifically a sub-group analysis will be performed for this group of patients, which have equipoise in regards to patients treatment, as decided by a blinded review panel.

Study 1 and Study 3 are the prospective, merged analyses of 2 identical double-blind, placebo-controlled studies, ZX008-1501 and ZX008-1502, to assess the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of ZX008 when used as adjunctive therapy in pediatric and young adult subjects with Dravet syndrome. Study 1501 and Study 1502 were conducted in parallel; Study 1501 was conducted at approximately 30 study sites in North America; Study 1502 was conducted at approximately 30 study sites in Europe, Asia and Australia. Upon completion of the Baseline Period after initial Screening and Baseline charting of seizure frequency, subjects who qualified for the studies were randomized (1:1:1) in a double-blind manner to receive either 1 of 2 doses of ZX008 (0.2 mg/kg/day or 0.8 mg/kg/day; maximum dose: 30 mg/day) or placebo. Randomization was stratified by age group (\< 6 years, =6 to 18 years) to achieve balance across treatment arms, with the target of 25% of subjects in each age group. All subjects were titrated to their randomized dose over a 14-day Titration Period. Following titration, subjects continued treatment at their randomly assigned dose over a 12-week Maintenance Period. Subjects exiting the study underwent a 2-week taper, unless they enrolled in a follow-on study. Subjects were followed for post-study safety monitoring.

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of ALN-HBV in healthy adult volunteers and patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. In addition, the study will assess antiviral efficacy of ALN-HBV in patients with HBV.

The purpose of this study is to determine if the use of sugammadex (compared with neostigmine) reduces the rate of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs).

This will be a Phase Ib open-label trial of CAVATAK™ (CVA21) in combination with Pembrolizumab for the treatment of patients with advanced NSCLC. The dose of Pembrolizumab will be fixed at 200mg. Three cohorts (dose levels) of intravenously-delivered CVA21 will be explored, using a standard 3+3 patient dose escalation design. The starting dose of CVA21 will be one log below the 1 x 10\^9 TCID50 dose found to be safe when CVA21 was given alone in an ongoing Phase I study (NCT02043665).

Characterize the safety, tolerability, ECG effects, pharmacokinetics and immunogenicity of anetumab ravtansine given as single agent and after inhibition of CYP3A4 and P-gp by concomitant administration of itraconazole in subjects with mesothelin-expressing advanced solid cancers

This global study will assess the effect of randomising dialysis sites to one of two default dialysate sodium concentrations in current practice, 140mmol/l and 137mmol/l, on major cardiovascular events and death in patients receiving maintenance haemodialysis.

This is an international, multicenter, open-label, long-term safety study of ZX008 in subjects with Dravet syndrome.

The purpose of this study is to compare the effects on patients with metastatic melanoma of taking a government approved and paid-for PD-1 inhibitor intermittently, with taking the same type of agent continuously. Researchers want to see if the two ways of giving this type of treatment work equally well in extending the life of patients with melanoma, or not.

This study was comprised of three substudies. The objective of Substudy 1 was to characterize the dose-response, efficacy, and safety of upadacitinib compared to placebo in inducing clinical remission to identify the induction dose of upadacitinib for further evaluation in Substudy 2. The objective of Substudy 2 was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of upadacitinib compared to placebo in inducing clinical remission in participants. The objective of Substudy 3 was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of upadacitinib compared to placebo in achieving clinical remission in participants who had a response following induction with upadacitinib.
