The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the efficacy of DB-1303/BNT323 compared with investigator's choice chemotherapy in terms of progression-free survival (PFS) by blinded independent central review (BICR) in the HR+, HER2-low (immunohistochemistry \[IHC\]2+/in situ hybridization \[ISH\]- and IHC 1+) population.

The goal of this study is to understand the performance of an experimental blood test that aims to detect early tumors in patients with hereditary cancer syndromes. If this new blood test is accurate, it could be used to screen patients for cancer and allow for earlier cancer detection. The study will compare cancer detection rates between those receiving the new blood test and those receiving standard care, assess if the test leads to earlier cancer diagnosis, and evaluate its impact on patient outcomes. The study will also use questionnaires and interviews to understand how patients feel about the blood test, its incorporation into routine medical care, and perceptions of the medical value of test results. This research could lead to more effective and less invasive cancer screening for high-risk individuals.

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effectiveness of a new 14-week individually-tailored home-based rehabilitation program called "Stronger at Home" with usual care in improving functional recovery in community-dwelling older adults after hip fractures. The main question this trial aims to answer are: • Is the Stronger at Home program more effective than usual care in improving functional recovery at the end of the 14-week intervention? secondary questions include: * What is the cost-utility of the Stronger at Home program compared to usual care at 3.5 months, 6 months, and 12 months after discharge? * Does the program have a sustained impact on functional recovery at 6 months and 12 months post-discharge? Participants in the trial will be asked to engage in the following tasks: * Participate in the Stronger at Home program, which includes using a self-directed toolkit consisting of educational resources and an illustrated exercise program. * Follow the guidelines provided in the toolkit for gradually increasing exercise intensity and incorporating different types of exercises into their daily life. The effects of the Stronger at Home program will be compared to those of usual care.

Activation of brown adipose tissue (BAT) by cold exposure. BAT thermogenesis and BAT volume of metabolic activity will be assessed by Positron-Emitting-Tomography (PET/CT) and MRI/MRS imaging and new pharmacological methods to modulate BAT thermogenesis. All previous data on the functioning of Brown Adipose Tissue (BAT) were obtained by Positron-Emitting-Tomography (PET) imaging studies using fluorodeoxyglucose F18 ( \[18F\]- FDG). This approach underestimates the actual activity of the BAT. In this study, the investigator is going to use a new PET tracer (C11-palmitate) which is a fat molecule. This will allow to quantify more accurately the activity of brown fat.

The aim of this study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a nonmyeloablative conditioning regimen for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in pediatric patients with sickle cell disease (SCD) who have a matched related major ABO-incompatible donor. The nonmyeloablative regimen will use alemtuzumab, total body irradiation (TBI) and sirolimus for immune suppression. This study will expand the access of HSCT for patients with SCD who are currently not eligible because of donor restrictions.

Children are commonly hospitalized because of community-acquired pneumonia. Despite the fact that many of these children have viral disease, a majority is treated with antibiotics. These antibiotics will not accelerate recovery in those with viral pneumonia and can cause harm. We are interested in exploring whether the MeMed BV - a composite biomarker assay - could be used to improve antibiotic prescribing in these children by identifying those who likely have viral disease. This proposal describes a feasibility randomized trial of this diagnostic intervention.
