The Multiple Sclerosis Implementation Network (MSIN) is a collaboration between the Multiple Sclerosis Association of America (MSAA), The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston (UTHealth Houston), Dell Medical School at The University of Texas at Austin, and Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation. The goal of MSIN is to improve Multiple Sclerosis (MS) care, patient health, and quality of life through the development and support of implementation research and clinical practice collaboration. MSIN brings together healthcare teams, people with MS, and research leaders in MS and implementation science (IS) to learn, share, test, implement, and disseminate innovations that improve MS care, patient health, and quality of life. This ClinicalTrials.gov record pertains to the MSIN Patient Registry, which is a comprehensive database that integrates participants' electronic health records from various providers.

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the analgesic activity of PF614 (an oral oxycodone prodrug extended-release analgesic) for control of postsurgical pain in subjects scheduled for abdominoplasty surgery. The main question to be answered is: • To assess the analgesic efficacy of PF614 compared to placebo in subjects with moderate to severe pain following abdominoplasty. Participants will be asked to take oral blinded doses of study medication at about one hour before surgery starts, and then every 12 hours after surgery for up to 4 days. Participants will be asked to: - Rate their pain on a 0-10 numerical rating scale (NRS) at various timepoints up to 5 days following surgery; - Tell us about the need for rescue medication if they continue to have moderate-to-severe pain; - Tell us about any side effects or adverse effects that they may experience to help us understand the safety and tolerability of the test medications; - Provide periodic blood samples to help us understand how much study drug is in their system. Participants will stay in a clinic setting and be monitored for safety for 5 days following surgery. We anticipate that participants will be discharged on Day 5, pending medical review, and then keep a diary to record study-related pain and adverse effects for an additional 2-4 days after discharge.

This is a non-inferiority patient-centered and pragmatic comparative-effectiveness pregnancy randomized controlled trial (RCT) with postpartum maternal and child follow-up through 2 years of 1,572 individuals with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) randomized to oral metformin versus injectable insulin. This study will determine if metformin is not inferior to insulin in reducing adverse pregnancy outcomes, is comparably safe for exposed individuals and children, and if patient-reported factors, including facilitators of and barriers to use, differ between metformin and insulin. A total of 1,572 pregnant individuals with GDM who need pharmacotherapy will be recruited at 20 U.S. sites using consistent treatment criteria to metformin versus insulin. Participants and their children will be followed through delivery to two years postpartum.

In parallel with the growth of ATHN's clinical studies, the number of new therapies for all blood disorders is increasing significantly. Some of the recently FDA-approved therapies for congenital and acquired hematologic conditions have not yet demonstrated long-term safety and effectiveness beyond the pivotal trials that led to their approval. In addition, results from well controlled, pivotal studies often cannot be replicated once a therapy has been approved for general use.2,3,4,5 In 2019 alone, the FDA has issued approvals for 24 new therapies for congenital and acquired hematologic conditions.6 In addition, almost 10,000 new studies for hematologic diseases are currently registered on www.clinicaltrials.gov.7 With this increase in potential new therapies possible, it is imperative that clinicians and clinical researchers in the field of non-neoplastic hematology have a uniform, secure, unbiased, and enduring method to collect long-term safety and efficacy data. As emphasized in a recently published review, accurate, uniform and quality national data collection is critical in clinical research, particularly for longitudinal cohort studies covering a lifetime of biologic risk.8

ASCEND researchers are partnering with families of children who receive extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) after a sudden failure of breathing named pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (PARDS). ECMO is a life support technology that uses an artificial lung outside of the body to do the lung's work. ASCEND has two objectives. The first objective is to learn more about children's abilities and quality of life among ECMO-supported children in the year after they leave the pediatric intensive care unit. The second objective is to compare short and long-term patient outcomes in two groups of children: one group managed with a mechanical ventilation protocol that reserves the use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) until protocol failure to another group supported on ECMO per usual care.
