The main aims of this study are to understand why adults with Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP) chose a certain treatment, why they changed to HyQvia from another therapy, how satisfied they are with HyQvia and their previous treatment, how their work productivity and activity is impacted and learn about their CIDP signs and symptoms. Other aims are to collect information on any medical problems or side effects during the treatment with HyQvia, learn how effective treatment of CIDP with HyQvia is and understand details on the use of HyQvia in standard clinical routine as well on the need for healthcare intervention (such as emergency room visits or hospital visits or stays). During the study, data will be collected from medical records already available, interviews with participants at study start and study completion and via questionnaires completed by participants. Participants will be treated as per the doctor's or the clinic's routine.

This phase III trial compares the effects of shorter chemotherapy (chemo)-immunotherapy without anthracyclines to usual chemo-immunotherapy for the treatment of early-stage triple negative breast cancer. Paclitaxel is in a class of medications called anti-microtubule agents. It stops cancer cells from growing and dividing and may kill them. Carboplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. It works in a way similar to the anticancer drug cisplatin, but may be better tolerated than cisplatin. Carboplatin works by killing, stopping or slowing the growth of cancer cells. Cyclophosphamide is in a class of medications called alkylating agents. It works by damaging the cell's deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and may kill cancer cells. It may also lower the body's immune response. Docetaxel is in a class of medications called taxanes. It stops cancer cells from growing and dividing and may kill them. Doxorubicin is an anthracycline chemotherapy drug that damages DNA and may kill cancer cells. Pembrolizumab may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Shorter treatment without anthracycline chemotherapy may work the same as the usual anthracycline chemotherapy treatment for early-stage triple negative breast cancer.

The PHA Registry (PHAR) is a national study about people who have pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). PHAR collects information from people with PAH and CTEPH who are cared for in participating PHA-accredited Pulmonary Hypertension Care Centers throughout the U.S. PHAR will determine how people with PAH and CTEPH are evaluated, tested, and treated, and will observe how well these participants do. The goal is to see if people with PH are treated according to recommended guidelines, and to see if there are certain factors that can lead to better or worse outcomes. PHAR will include information about people with PAH and CTEPH in the U.S. who are seen at participating PHA-accredited PH Care Centers. PHAR contains data about patient care and outcomes. Specifically, data in the PHAR includes information on diagnosis; clinical status; socioeconomic status; diagnosis test results; body size; treatment information; interest in participating in clinical trials; family health and social history; and information about smoking, alcohol, or drug use. Participants are followed over time, and provide updates such as changes in therapy, how often participants need to go to the hospital, and survival. Such information may help healthcare providers provide better care.

The goal of this study is to see if adding hands-on cooking classes to a weight management program (called Chef-ID) helps young adults with intellectual disabilities lose more weight and keep it off compared to a standard weight loss program. The study will last 24 months and include three phases: 6 months of active support, 12 months of maintenance, and 6 months with no contact. The investigators will look at how much weight participants lose over the first 18 months. Changes in cooking skills, body fat, health markers (like blood pressure and cholesterol), daily living skills, and caregiver stress will be tracked. Finally, factors that might help or prevent weight loss, and how changes in weight and body fat are linked to overall health will be explored. This research will help inform on how to better support healthy lifestyles for people with intellectual disabilities.

This study is being done to understand how oncologists can engage a multidisciplinary team to help endometrial cancer survivors with obesity to engage in a weight management program and potentially start a weight loss medication. Obesity often impacts the future health and longevity of early-stage endometrial cancer survivors more than their cancer diagnosis. Patients will be referred to the KUMC OB/Gyn weight management clinic to discuss weight management options. - If patients decide to use medications for weight loss, then the study will collect data from their chart that is recorded as part of routine monitoring for patients on weight loss medications. - If patients decide not to use any medications, the study will monitor physical exam and lab data collected as part of their routine medical care. The study will also try to understand reasons why patients did or did not start using a weight loss medication.

The purpose of this research, which has been determined as non-significant risk by the central IRB overseeing the study, is to obtain information to help further develop a machine (a medical device) to measure the pressure around the brain from the outside (this pressure is called intracranial pressure or ICP). Monitoring and managing ICP is an important part of care for patients with conditions such as Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). However, the current way of measuring ICP requires surgery to drill a hole into the skull, and therefore can introduce additional risks such as infections and pain. Recent research has shown it may be possible to measure ICP without needing surgery. This technology is in development, but large amounts of data is required to build these new devices. Through collecting a large database of information from patients who have both the routine surgical device and the research device applied to their head, the research team will work to develop and test an effective and potentially safer way of monitoring patient ICP.

This phase II trial compares the safety, side effects and effectiveness of anti-lag-3 (relatlimab) and anti-PD-1 blockade (nivolumab) to standard of care lomustine for the treatment of patients with glioblastoma that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). Relatlimab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. A monoclonal antibody is a type of protein that can bind to certain targets in the body, such as molecules that cause the body to make an immune response (antigens). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the tumor, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Lomustine is a chemotherapy drug and in a class of medications called alkylating agents. It damages the cell's deoxyribonucleic acid and may kill tumor cells. Giving relatlimab and nivolumab may be safe, tolerable, and/or effective compared to standard of care lomustine in treating patients with recurrent glioblastoma.

This phase I/Ib trial tests the safety and best dose of ipatasertib in combination with the usual treatment approach using chemotherapy together with radiation therapy ("chemo-radiation") in patients with head and neck cancer. Ipatasertib is in a class of medications called protein kinase B (AKT) inhibitors. It may stop the growth of tumor cells and may kill them. Cisplatin, which is a chemotherapy used in this trial, is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. It works by killing, stopping or slowing the growth of cancer cells. Radiation therapy uses high energy to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Giving ipatasertib in combination with chemo-radiation may be better than chemo-radiation alone in treating patients with advanced head and neck cancer.

This phase II/III trial examines whether patients who have undergone surgical removal of bladder, kidney, ureter or urethra, but require an additional treatment called immunotherapy to help prevent their urinary tract (urothelial) cancer from coming back, can be identified by a blood test. Many types of tumors tend to lose cells or release different types of cellular products including their DNA which is referred to as circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) into the bloodstream before changes can be seen on scans. Health care providers can measure the level of ctDNA in blood or other bodily fluids to determine which patients are at higher risk for disease progression or relapse. In this study, a blood test is used to measure ctDNA and see if there is still cancer somewhere in the body after surgery and if giving a treatment will help eliminate the cancer. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and relatlimab, can help the body's immune system to attack the cancer, and can interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. This trial may help doctors determine if ctDNA measurement in blood can better identify patients that need additional treatment, if treatment with nivolumab prolongs patients' life and whether the additional immunotherapy treatment with relatlimab extends time without disease progression or prolongs life of urothelial cancer patients who have undergone surgical removal of their bladder, kidney, ureter or urethra.
