Cognitive Reappraisal Training for Borderline Personality (BPD)
Description

Previous work by the group convinced the researchers to pursue development of focused cognitive reappraisal training as a novel approach to treatment of BPD, either as stand-alone treatment or in concert with evidence-based treatments of BPD. The present proposal aims to refine and test a proposed clinical intervention for BPD patients, training in reappraisal-by-distancing, in terms of its ability to influence hypothesized neural and behavioral targets and, once that is established, to demonstrate its ability improve clinically relevant outcome measures.

129Xe MRI in Pediatric Population With BPD
Description

Hyperpolarized (HP) gas magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the lungs offers additional information that cannot be obtained with CT scan, the current gold standard for imaging this disorder. As a nonionizing technique, MRI is an ideal modality for pulmonary imaging; in particular in the infant and pediatric population. Nevertheless, due to the low proton density of the lung parenchyma (only \~20% that of solid tissues), numerous air-tissue interfaces that lead to rapid signal decay, and cardiac and respiratory sources of motion that further degrade image quality , MRI has played a limited role in the evaluation of lung pathologies. In this setting, HP gas (using 129Xe) MRI may play a role in helping determine the regional distribution of alveolar sizes, partial pressure of oxygen, alveolar wall thickness, and gas transport efficiency of the microvasculature within the lungs of infants with a diagnosis of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD).

COMPLETED
Seroquel Extended Release (XR) for the Management of Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD)
Description

The Primary objective of this study is to evaluate Seroquel XR in the treatment of borderline personality disorder (BPD). As in many initial randomized control trials, the study will be of relatively short duration - 8 weeks - to assess effectiveness and safety while maximizing retention. The specific aim is to determine if Seroquel XR is superior to placebo. The primary outcome measure will be a statistically significant difference between Seroquel XR compared to placebo on the Zanarini Rating Scale for Borderline Personality Disorder (ZAN-BPD), an objective rating scale that addresses the severity of Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th Edition (DSM-IV) symptoms of the illness. As there is the recent development of an extended release form of Seroquel (Seroquel XR) (Schulz et al. 2007), the new compound may offer several advantages in this study. Therefore, the hypothesis of this study is that both doses of Seroquel XR (see below) will be superior to placebo in an 8-week randomized trial as assessed by the ZAN-BPD. To achieve the Primary Objective of this study, two doses of Seroquel XR will be tested - 150 mg/d and 300 mg/d. Thus, the study will be able to assess the effect of Seroquel XR compared to placebo and to explore a dose effect.

Pragmatic Research on Diuretic Management in Early BPD Pilot
Description

Babies who are born prematurely often develop a chronic lung disease called bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). BPD puts babies at higher risk for problems with growth and development. Diuretics, such as furosemide, are frequently used in the management of early BPD). Many clinicians use informal trials of therapy to see if a baby responds to diuretics in the short-term before starting chronic diuretic therapy. Despite frequent use of diuretics, it is unclear how many babies truly respond to therapy and if there are long-term benefits of diuretic treatment. Designing research studies to figure this out has been challenging. The Pragmatic Research on Diuretic Management in Early BPD (PRIMED) study is a feasibility pilot study to help us get information to design a larger trial of diuretic management for BPD. Key questions this study will answer include: (1) Can we use an N-of-1 trial to determine whether a particular baby responds to furosemide? In an N-of-1 trial, a baby is switched between furosemide and placebo to compare that particular infant's response on and off diuretics. It is a more rigorous approach to the informal trials of therapy that are often conducted in clinical care. We hope to learn how many babies have a short-term response to furosemide ("responders"); (2) how many babies will still be on respiratory support at the end of the N-of-1 trial? This will help us determine how many patients would be eligible to randomize to chronic diuretic therapy in the second phase of the larger trail, and (3) if a baby is identified as a short-term responder, how many parents and physicians would be willing to randomize the baby to chronic diuretics (3 months) versus placebo in the longer trial?

Blastic Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cell Neoplasm (BPDCN) International Registry
Description

Blastic Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cell Neoplasm (BPDCN) is a very rare hematologic malignancy. Despite recent advances, at present there is no consensus on the optimal treatment of BPDCN. The optimal therapy of disease remains to be determined, and due to the rarity of cases, there is a need for international collaboration to collect data on BPDCN clinical presentations, diagnostics, treatment regimens and outcomes. Therefore, the objectives of this study are: (1) to build a large database of patients with BPDCN, (2) to investigate the characteristics and outcome of the disease with different treatment regimens, (3) to evaluate prognostic factors, and (4) to generate data-based prospective treatment recommendations.

Psychoeducational Videos and Digital Assessments for BPD
Description

In this study, 100 adults who were recently diagnosed with borderline personality disorder (BPD) will be randomized to either receive educational videos about BPD or educational videos about other topics. All participants in both conditions will complete daily surveys about their emotions and social interactions, and they will respond to surveys and complete cognitive tests at 4 different time points. Some participants will receive feedback about their cognitive test performance, and others will not. The investigators are interested in learning about how accurate education about BPD and enhanced knowledge about cognitive abilities might help people manage their BPD symptoms. The investigators expect that participants who received psychoeducation about BPD will have lower levels of BPD and depressive symptoms than other participants, and that participants who received feedback on their cognitive tests will also have lower symptoms.

Effect of Synchronized vs. Continuous HFNC Using NAVA on WOB in Infants With BPD
Description

Patients will be randomized to begin the study with either NAVA-synchronized or continuous HFNC. Each patient will receive two 15-minute trials at different levels of continuous HFNC and two 15-minute trials at corresponding levels of synchronized HFNC. In synchronized HFNC, using the NIV NAVA mode on the ventilator each subject will receive a constant minimum flow, but with each neurally triggered breath (as measured with an Edi catheter), an additional flow will be given to the patient. This differs from continuous HFNC in which the subject receives a constant flow without variation. Subjects will be observed during the entirety of these trials. Values for the primary and secondary outcomes will be monitored, recorded, and calculated.

Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder and Borderline Personality Disorder (PTSD-BPD)
Description

Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) with co-occurring Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) (i.e., PTSD-BPD) is common (as high as 58%), debilitating, costly, and limited treatment options available for this population. PTSD-BPD is associated with even greater functional impairment and higher healthcare burden than either disorder alone. There are surprisingly few treatments available for this clinical profile, despite its association with major negative health outcomes, cost, and morbidity. There is a pressing need to innovate treatments that can effectively and efficiently treat PTSD-BPD. The existing treatments used for PTSD-BPD are lengthy, laborious, resource-intensive, and require complete cessation of suicidal behaviors prior to treatment. Furthermore, no integrated treatment has been innovated to deliver the active ingredients to efficiently affect the mechanisms underpinning this comorbidity. The investigators propose to examine an adapted version of a first-line PTSD intervention, Cognitive Processing Therapy, augmented with a Suicide Risk Management, i.e., (CPT+SRM) as a brief (12 sessions) and more parsimonious treatment alternative that strategically targets shared mechanisms underpinning PTSD and BPD. The purpose of this pilot study is to 1) collect initial feasibility, acceptability, and safety data on this adapted treatment, 2) conduct a pilot randomized clinical trial evaluating the efficacy of CPT+SRM versus Treatment as Usual (TAU) + SRM, and 3) evaluate two targets (i.e, improvements in emotional intensity and cognitive dysfunction) as mechanisms leading to change in our primary outcomes. Both treatment conditions will be administered via telehealth. Potential benefits include reduction in participants' PTSD, BPD and other mental health symptoms. Additionally, this work could benefit the community by improving the treatment repertoire for PTSD-BPD. Potential risks include emotional distress, suicidality, and/or self-harm. Participants may experience discomfort and/or distress while discussing participants trauma(s) and mental health. These risks will be mitigated using a suicide risk management protocol which therapists in the assessment of risk and protective factors of suicide, followed by documentation for the decision-making around the management of risk.

COMPLETED
Aerosolized Albuterol Use in Severe BPD
Description

Currently several dose schedules of Albuterol are administered via nebulization to infants in the neonatal and infant intensive care unit (N/IICU). As Albuterol is not FDA approved for this population (under 2 years) there is no standard recommended dose. Aerosolized Albuterol is one of the most widely used therapies that are utilized for infants with chronic lung disease. The common practice in the N/IICU is weight base dosing of all medications. This contradicts the aerosol science recommendations, which advise not to titrate doses by weight as the patient naturally self-regulates their dose according to the change in minute ventilation with age. In addition, the wide use of aerosolized Albuterol in the infant with Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia (BPD) has little current evidence of efficacy in this disease. Understanding the appropriate dose for effective treatment as well as the indication for use in the BPD population would provide the clinician with useful guidelines. The investigators propose to analyze the safety and efficacy of aerosolized albuterol in infants with BPD comparing the recommended dose per aerosolization literature with the common dosing practices at The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) as well as placebo.
