1. A Study to Evaluate the Effect of Inspiratory Muscle Training on Physiological Function and Clinical Outcomes Following Lung Transplant

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to to mechanistically investigate the effect of specific inspiratory muscle training on respiratory function, exercise capacity, health-related quality-of-life, and short-term clinical outcomes in patients after lung transplant.

2. A Study of In Vitro Mapping of Cardiac Tissue Obtained from Patients with Refractory Arrhythmias who Underwent Heart Transplant or Replacement with Mechanical Heart

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to obtain electro-anatomic maps of human myocardium in sinus rhythm and ventricular arrhythmias to identify activation patterns, identify and perform tissue ablation at targeted sites of interest that could play an important trigger for development of arrhythmias, and to perform histologic analysis of the myocardial tissue to identify triggers and/or targets for therapies to terminate ventricular arrhythmias.

3. A Study to Compare Medical and Non-Medical Coping on Functional Outcomes and Caregiver Burden Among Liver Transplant Patients

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to compare functional improvement and caregiver burden pre- and post-liver transplant (LT) in four patient and patient’s primary caregiver dyads, grouped, based on presence or absence of mood symptoms pre-LT.

4. Study of Potential VCA Candidates', Caregivers' and Providers' Motivations, Expectations and Shared Decision-making in VCA

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to determine, through in-depth interviews, the motivations, values, preferences, and expectations of VCA candidates and their caregivers.

5. A Study of Kidney Transplant Recipients: Development of a Database for a Multicenter Consortium

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to collect and share detailed clinical data from all kidney transplant recipients from 7 kidney transplant centers (Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN; Mayo Clinic, Scottsdale, AZ; Mayo Clinic, Jacksonville, FL; Cornell University, New York, NY; University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI; Henry Ford, Detroit, MI; University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, Pittsburg, PA) to retrospectively and prospectively study kidney transplant recipients.

6. A Study to Evaluate the Effectiveness and Safety Study of Imlifidase in Treatment of Antibody-Mediated Rejection in Kidney Transplant Patients

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to investigate how efficiently the study medication imlifidase reduces the amount of donor specific antibodies (DSA) in comparison with plasma exchange (PE) therapy, in patients who have an active antibody mediated rejection (AMR) after recently been kidney transplanted. The purpose is also to investigate and compare safety for these two treatments. 20 patients will be treated with imlifidase and 10 with PE.

7. A Study to Evaluate the Safety of the SARS-CoV-2 Vaccination in Patients Waitlisted for Solid Organ Transplantation

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of the SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in patients listed for solid organ transplantation, including heart, lung, liver, kidney, and pancreas.
