This study is for individuals who have Cushings disease and want to join voluntarily in this study to find out if a study drug called osilodrostat (LCI699) is safe and has beneficial effects in people who have Cushings disease. Cushings disease is a rare but debilitating disease. Cushings disease is caused by a benign tumor of the pituitary gland. The tumor…
The purpose of this study is to determine if measuring blood levels of proteins called POMC, AgRP, and chromogrannin A (CGA) can be used to diagnose and track tumor growth and recurrence in patients that have ACTH-dependent Cushing's syndrome, non-secreting pituitary tumors, and other neuroendocrine tumors. We invite you to participate if you have: a…
This research study will look at a newer treatment option for Barrett's Esophagus (BE) which uses nitrous oxide to freeze unwanted tissue. The most commonly used treatment method is Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) which uses heat to destroy the pre-cancerous tissue. Nitrous Oxide ablation using the C2 CryoBalloon Focal Ablation System, an FDA-cleared…
Although supraventricular tachycardia (SVT), including atrial flutter (AF), are the most common causes of intended in-utero fetal therapy, none of the medication used to date has been evaluated for their effects on the mother and her baby in a randomized controlled clinical trial (RCT). In the absence of such evidence, there is no consensus for the optimal…
The purpose of the study is to compare two types of endoscopic treatments in patients with Barretts esophagus (BE) with abnormal cells (dysplasia); radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and hybrid argon plasma coagulation (H-APC). H-APC is a newer technique in the treatment of BE and has not been adequately studied and is not approved by the FDA for routine use.…
This is a Phase 3 multi-center open label randomized clinical trial. The purpose of this study is to learnmore about which anti-rejection (or immunosuppressive) medications best protect infants, children,adolescents, and young adults after they have had a heart transplant.

Patients will be treated with the invesitigational drug LCI699 at doses up to 60 mg a day, and possibly for a short period of time with placebo. A placebo is a dummy drug ("pill") with no active medicine inside.
C2 Therapeutics is currently enrolling patients to participate in the Coldplay 3 clinical trial. Coldplay 3 is evaluating the effectiveness of the Coldplay CryoBalloon Focal Ablation System in patients with Barrett's esophagus who have not yet received treatment. Participants will undergo treatment with the Coldplay CryoBalloon Focal Ablation System…
The purpose of this study is to evaluate a new technique called Wide Area Transepithelial Sample 3-Dimensional Esophageal Biopsy (WATS) with computer assisted method of analysis of brush biopsy. This study will assess whether performing standard biopsies in addition to the WATS brush biopsies identifies more patients with dysplasia than does performing…
