The purpose of this study is to see how teclistamab by itself compares to study treatment combinations that are commonly used to treat multiple myeloma. These study treatment combinations are either pomalidomide, bortezomib and dexamethasone (called PVd) or carfilzomib and dexamethasone (called Kd). The patients will be randomly assigned to one of the study…
The TARGET-HBV study engages an observational research design to conduct a comprehensive review of therapeutic outcomes for patients with chronic hepatitis B (HBV) who are currently taking tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) relative to those patients following other treatment regimens. The study will address important clinical questions regarding the management of…
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of SOF/VEL/GS- 9857 FDC in patients infected with Hepatitis C (HCV), and previously treated unsuccessfully. Information about any side effects that may occur will also be collected.

The purpose of this study is to learn more about the effects of the combination of telaprevir peginterferon alfa2b (Peg-IFN) and ribavirin (RBV) in children with chronic hepatitis C. Investigators will look at how these study drugs may affect childrens bodies and how children break down and eliminate telaprevir. Participants of this study will receive Peg-…
The purpose of this study is to determine how safe and effective using three medications (pegylated-interferon, ribavirin and boceprevir) are in curing HCV in patients with end stage kidney disease on hemodialysis. Participants will be prescribed these three medications and will be followed closely through treatment, then for 6 months afterwards. During…
We are doing this study to learn if the MMprofiler test can help your doctor in making decisions about your treatment. The MMprofiler genomic test will look at a large number of normal genes. The test will predict risk of your multiple myeloma (MM) by assessing whether these genes are turned on or off in your cancer cells. The purpose of this research is to…
The purpose of this study is to see if study drug Sofosbuvir/Ledipasvir fixed-dose combination + Ribavirin (SOF/LDV FDC + RBV) are effective in treating people infected with the hepatitis C virus with genotypes 1 and 4, who have advanced liver disease with permanent liver damage (cirrhosis) and may be showing signs of liver failure or who have undergone…
This study will compare two experimental drugs, named Sofosbuvir/Velpatasvir/GS-9857 Fixed-Dose Combination (SOF/VEL/GS-9857 FDC) and Sofosbuvir/Velpatasvir (SOF/VEL FDC) for 12 weeks for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in subjects who have previously been unsuccessfully treated for chronic HCV.. An experimental drug is one that…
This study will compare two experimental drugs, named Sofosbuvir/Velpatasvir/GS-9857 Fixed-Dose Combination (SOF/VEL/GS-9857 FDC) and Sofosbuvir/Velpatasvir (SOF/VEL) FDC for the treatment ofchronic genotype 3 hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in patients who have cirrhosis, or scarring of the liver. The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy,…
The purpose of this study is to study the effects of a new study drug known as Riociguat in people diagnosed with pulmonary hypertension (PH) associated with idiopathic interstitial pneumonia (IIP). Patients will be in the study for approximately 26 weeks in which they will take the pill Riogciguat three times a day.
This study will compare the effectiveness of three different FDA approved medicines for Hepatitis C Genotype 1 patients: HARVONI , Viekira Pak and Zepatier and will observe subject experiences before, during, and after HCV treatment. Subjects will be asked to respond to several survey questionnaires and if they would allow their leftover blood collected for…
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness, safety, and tolerability of study drugs Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir and GS-9857 in comparison to Sofosbuvir and Velpatasvir in patients infected with HCV. Information about any side effects that may occur will also be collected.
This is a clinical research study designed to determine the safety and effectiveness of the TIVUS system, an investigational device used in the treatment of PAH. The TIVUS System is intended to treat patients with pulmonary artery hypertension by injuring the sympathetic nerves surrounding the pulmonary vasculature (denervation) using ultrasonic energy. The…
This research trial is being conducted to determine the safety and efficacy of HARVONI (an FDA-approved Hepatitis C Virus medication) in HCV (genotype 1, 4, 5, an 6) infected patients who also have advanced heart failure or chronic lung disease. HARVONI has not been tested in patients with HCV and heart failure or chronic lunch disease. Subjects will take…
