This study will test the safety of a drug called PF-08046049/SGN-BB228 in participants with melanoma and other solid tumors that are hard to treat or have spread through the body. It will also study the side effects of this drug. A side effect is anything a drug does to the body besides treating the disease. This study will have 3 parts. Parts A and B of the study will find out how much PF-08046049/SGN-BB228 should be given to participants. Part C will use the information from Parts A and B to see if PF-08046049/SGN-BB228 is safe and if it works to treat solid tumor cancers.

Fluid expansion with isotonic crystalloids is a first-line intervention in the treatment of patients with acute kidney injury (AKI). While it is generally accepted that the timely correction of kidney hypoperfusion will minimize the extent of injury as well as potentially facilitate recovery, there are potential harms involved in indiscriminate administration of intravenous fluids. Although anticipating fluid tolerance is part of the clinical evaluation of a patient for whom intravenous fluid therapy is considered, it has been suggested that using Point-Of-Care ultrasound (POCUS) may enable the early identification of patients with a high-risk of congestive complications and guide clinical decisions with greater precision\[1\]. However, it has not been shown that providing this information in the context of AKI result in a change in management or a prevention of complications. This single-center pilot randomized controlled trial aim to determine the feasibility of comparing a management including a POCUS evaluation of fluid tolerance to usual care in non-critically ill patients with AKI. In the intervention group, a POCUS evaluation will be performed and interpreted by experienced staff producing a report that will be presented to the attending care team. This assessment will be repeated 48-72 hours later. The primary aim of the study will be to establish the feasibility of this intervention. Secondary objectives will include determining the difference between the intervention arm and the control arm in relationship with fluid administration, diuretic use, evolution of kidney function, and intensification of care.

Loss of control eating (LOC-E) in youth predicts the later development of full syndrome eating disorders, such as binge-eating disorder (BED), and therefore, could be a relevant target for prevention interventions. Children with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are at higher risk of experiencing LOC-E than healthy controls, and there is evidence that related neurocognitive predisposing factors, such as impulsivity and dysfunctional reward processing, are associated with the pathogenesis of LOC-E. Therefore, it is pertinent to examine whether modifying these neurocognitive symptoms influences LOC-E and the subsequent development of eating disorders. Stimulants are an efficacious treatment for impulsivity in youth with ADHD and have been shown to improve symptoms of binge eating in adults; however, studies have not prospectively explored the effect of stimulants on LOC-E in youth. To explore this gap, the investigators aim to collect prospective observational data in a clinical setting to measure change in LOC-E episodes and secondary outcomes in youth aged 8 to 13 years old with ADHD and LOC-E who are treated with stimulants. The investigators will collect outcome measures prior to stimulant initiation (baseline) and 3 months after stimulant initiation.

The use of a splint, serial casting and passive stretching have been described in the literature as conservative interventions to manage joint contractures after burn injury. There is a paucity of literature investigating the effect of serial casting on scar contractures following upper extremity (UE) burn injury in adults and a lack of studies using strong methodological approaches. There are also no studies investigating the effect of casting on hypertrophic scars (HSc) and on self-reported UE function. This study is a longitudinal case series design with a criteria for change on the use of serial casting for the treatment of upper extremity burn contractures. The purpose of this study is to estimate the extent to which range of motion (AROM and PROM), scar characteristics and patient-reported upper-extremity function changes following an individually-tailored serial casting treatment program after switching from one week of usual care and to determine if these changes can be maintained 3 weeks after stopping serial casting, for adult burn survivors who developed an upper-extremity joint contracture greater than 15% normal range of motion within 1-year post-burn. This study will be a longitudinal case series design with a criteria for change. A minimum of 12 participants will be recruited from the "Centre d'expertise pour les victimes de brûlures graves de l'ouest du Québec" (CEVBGOQ) and will undergo one week of "usual care". If the PROM of the joint does not improve after one week of usual care, the participant will start the serial casting process, which will be prescribed by the treating OT. PROM/AROM and scar characteristics will be measured using a revised goniometry protocol that incorporates cutaneokinematics (CKM) principles and precise skin measures (DermaScan C, Cutometer®, Mexameter® and Tewameter®) at baseline, every Monday and Friday of the treatment weeks and 3 weeks after treatment cessation. Self-reported UE function and satisfaction related to scarring will be assessed at baseline and 3 weeks after treatment cessation using the QuickDASH and the patient satisfaction assessment scale (PSAS). Analysis on ROM and scar characteristic will be conducted using a graphical representation with a projected "usual care" regression line to count how many outcomes were over the line once the treatment was introduced. This study will contribute to building evidence for the use of serial casting following UE burn contractures in the adult population.

This study is researching an experimental drug called odronextamab, referred to as study drug. The study is focused on participants with previously untreated follicular lymphoma (a type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma or NHL). This study will be made up of two parts: Part 1 (non-randomized) and Part 2 (randomized - controlled). The aim of Part 1 of the study is to see how safe and tolerable the study drug is when given alone. The aim of Part 2 of the study is to see how the study drug works compared to rituximab (called the "comparator drug") and chemotherapy (the current standard of care for NHL). Standard of care means the usual medication expected and used when receiving treatment for a condition. 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 study drug less effective or could lead to side effects) * How the study drug affects quality of life and ability to complete routine daily activities.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the acute local skeletal muscle inflammatory response to thigh muscle (quadriceps) eccentric muscle actions. Eccentric muscle actions occur when the muscle is lengthening as it contracts. This is a pilot project to assess the degree of inflammatory biomarkers, called myokines, that are released locally in skeletal muscle tissue after an acute bout of resistance-exercise using a resistance-exercise machine called an isokinetic dynamometer.
