This study is researching a particular group of experimental drugs administered for a short period in the treatment of participants with Lupus Nephritis (LN).
The main aim of the current study is to see how safe and tolerable the study drugs are in a long-term follow-up.
This is a main study, called an umbrella study, which includes several independent smaller sub-studies. Each of these smaller main sub-studies tests different drugs at the same time, all aimed at treating LN.
The study is looking at several other research questions, including:
* What side effects may happen from taking the study drug
* How much study drug is in the blood at different times
* Whether the body makes antibodies against the study drug (which could make the drug less effective or could lead to side effects)
The main objective is to assess the safety and tolerability of inebilizumab in adult participants with active and refractory systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) with nephritis (Subprotocol A) and to assess the safety and tolerability of subcutaneous (SC) blinatumomab in adult participants with active and refractory SLE with and without nephritis (Subprotocol B Part A) and in adult participants with active refractory rheumatoid arthritis (RA) (Subprotocol C Part A). The trial will also assess the efficacy of SC blinatumomab in adult participants with active and refractory SLE with and without nephritis (Subprotocol B Part B and Subprotocol C Part B).
This study is open to adults with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called BI 3000202 helps people with SLE. The study tests different doses of BI 3000202 and aims to find the best dose for people with this condition.
Participants are put into 5 groups randomly, which means by chance. 4 groups get different doses of BI 3000202, and 1 group gets a placebo. Placebo tablets look like BI 3000202 tablets but do not contain any medicine. Participants take the tablets for 1 year. All participants also continue their regular treatment for SLE.
Participants are in the study for a bit longer than 1 year. During this time, they visit the study site regularly. Doctors check the participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects. They also compare the results between the groups to see if the treatment works.

This phase Ib trial studies the side effects of nivolumab and to see how well it works alone and in combination with other treatments, such as ipilimumab, cabozantinib, platinum containing therapy, and fluoropyrimidine, in treating patients with autoimmune disorders and cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced), to other places in the body (metastatic) or cannot removed by surgery (unresectable). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Cabozantinib blocks certain proteins, which may help keep tumor cells from growing. It may also prevent the growth of new blood vessels that tumors need to grow. Cabozantinib is a type of tyrosine kinase inhibitor and a type of angiogenesis inhibitor. Chemotherapy drugs, such as platinum containing therapies and fluoropyrimidine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving nivolumab alone and in combination with other treatments, including ipilimumab, cabozantinib, platinum containing therapy, or fluoropyrimidine, may be safe, tolerable, and/or effective in treating patients with autoimmune disorders and advanced, metastatic, or unresectable cancer.

Heart failure and atrial fibrillation are two of the most common heart diseases globally. Nearly half of all patients with heart failure also have atrial fibrillation. When heart failure and atrial fibrillation occur together, the risk of hospitalization and premature death increases significantly. However, there is a lack of reliable tools to assess how severely the heart is affected in these patients. This makes it difficult both to establish the correct diagnosis, tailor treatment, and predict who is at greatest risk of hospital admission or death from the disease.
One of the most important targets in heart failure is the filling pressure in the left ventricle. When this pressure is high, it means that the heart has difficulty receiving blood, leading to shortness of breath and fluid retention in the body. Today, filling pressure is usually estimated using ultrasound (echocardiography), but the available methods are primarily developed for patients without atrial fibrillation. In patients with both heart failure and atrial fibrillation, the measurements are so uncertain that they cannot be used as a reliable basis for clinical decision-making.
In this study, entitled Heart Failure combined with Atrial Fibrillation (HFcAF), the investigators will test new ultrasound methods that combine novel measures of cardiac chamber function with established techniques. Artificial intelligence will be used to identify the most useful combinations of parameters, select cardiac cycles that are best suited for analysis in atrial fibrillation, and automate and optimize the measurements. This approach may provide both more accurate and faster assessments, while also making the methods easier to implement in clinical practice. The aim is to improve the estimation of filling pressure so that it becomes more precise also in patients with atrial fibrillation. The investigators will then examine whether these improved methods can be used to predict which patients are at highest risk of hospitalization or death due to heart failure.
The study is designed as a prospective multicenter study, in which patients are recruited from several hospitals in different countries. This will make the results robust and generalizable to a wide range of patient populations. The investigators anticipate that the project will pave the way for better diagnostics and risk stratification in heart failure combined with atrial fibrillation and, in the longer term, contribute to improved guidelines and treatment for a large number of patients. If successful, the project will provide a new tool that can contribute to earlier and more targeted treatment, thereby improving quality of life and prognosis for a large group of patients.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness (prevention of thromboembolic events) and safety (major bleeding) of adding oral anticoagulation (OAC) to background antiplatelet therapy in patients who develop new-onset post-operative atrial fibrillation (POAF) after isolated coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery.
All patients with a qualifying POAF event, who decline randomization, will be offered the option of enrollment in a parallel registry that captures their baseline risk profile and their treatment strategy in terms of anticoagulants or antiplatelets received. These patients will also be asked to fill out a brief decliner survey.

This study is researching experimental drugs called REGN7508 and REGN9933. The study is focused on participants who have atrial fibrillation, which means that the heart beats too fast and unevenly. REGN7508 and REGN9933 are designed to help stop blood clots forming in patients with atrial fibrillation.
The aim of the study is to see how well REGN7508 and REGN9933 work in patients that get medicine for their atrial fibrillation. The bleeding effects of REGN7508 and REGN9933 will be compared to another medicine (apixaban), which is available on the market to treat and prevent formation of blood clots.
The study is looking at several other research questions, including:
* What side effects may happen from taking REGN7508 or REGN9933
* How well do the study drugs reduce the risk of having a stroke
* How much of REGN7508 or REGN9933 is in the blood at different times
* Whether the body makes antibodies against REGN7508 or REGN9933 (which could make the drugs less effective or could lead to side effects)
The primary objective of the TRAC-AF Registry is to capture real-world safety and effectiveness data on AtriCure devices used to conduct open concomitant and/or hybrid ablation, and management of the LAA concomitant to a cardiac ablation.
Primary Aim: To determine if apixaban is superior to aspirin for prevention of the composite outcome of any stroke (hemorrhagic or ischemic) or death from any cause in patients with recent ICH and atrial fibrillation (AF).
Secondary Aim: To determine if apixaban, compared with aspirin, results in better functional outcomes as measured by the modified Rankin Scale.
Multinational, investigator-initiated study of oral anticoagulation versus no anticoagulation for the prevention of stroke and other adverse cardiovascular events in patients with transient atrial fibrillation occurring transiently with stress and additional stroke risk factors.
