Kaposi sarcoma (KS) lesions are initiated by endothelial cells infected with KS herpesvirus (KSHV), also known as human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8). Lesion progression is driven by abnormal angiogenesis, chronic inflammation, and uncontrolled cell proliferation. KS remains one of the most commonly diagnosed cancers in many African countries where economic constraints prevent successful treatment in most patients. Treatment outcomes in developed countries are also often unsatisfactory in HIV positive patients despite good virological and immunological responses to antiretroviral therapy. Therefore, identification of new oral, safe treatment options for treatment of KS remains a research priority. Given the known anti-angiogenic properties and based on the treatment response with other benign vascular lesions such as infantile hemangioma, propranolol is a good candidate for the treatment of KS. The hypothesis of this study is that treating patients with Kaposi sarcoma with propranolol will result in an overall response rate (complete response rate plus partial response rate) of at least 45%, and that propranolol will be safe and well tolerated in this patient population.

This phase II trial tests the combination of nivolumab and ipilimumab with sirolimus and prednisone for the treatment of skin (cutaneous) cancer that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable) or that has spread from where it first started to other places in the body (metastatic) in kidney transplant recipients. Immunotherapy with nivolumab and ipilimumab, may induce changes in body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Sirolimus and prednisone are immunosuppressants that are given to keep the body from rejecting the transplanted kidney. Giving nivolumab and ipilimumab in combination with sirolimus and prednisone may kill more cancer cells, while also keeping the transplanted kidney healthy, in patients with unresectable or metastatic cutaneous cancer who have received a kidney transplant.

This study examines the application of precision treatment intervention for smoking cessation from both the clinician perspective and patient perspective, and compares it to usual care on tobacco treatment in the primary care setting. The precision treatment intervention includes personalized tobacco treatment recommendations using the patient's clinical, genetic, and biomarker information. This approach may increase effectiveness and adherence for the patient, and increase the clinician's likelihood of prescribing.

Background: -Patients who are being evaluated and/or treated at the NIH Clinical Center and adult patients at participating sites will be entered onto this tissue procurement protocol for collection of tissue specimens. Objectives: - To obtain samples from adult and pediatric patients for research purposes from tests and procedures that are done as required by the primary research protocol(s) to which a patient is enrolled or as part of their standard-of-care treatment. - To obtain samples for research purposes from non-surgical procedures, such as percutaneous biopsies, performed for the sole purpose of obtaining tissue specimens or biological fluids for this protocol. Eligibility: -Adult patients (18 years of age and older) and pediatric patients (younger than 18 years of age) who are being evaluated for and/or treated for cancer at the NIH Clinical Center participating sites. Design: - This is a multicenter tissue procurement protocol with NCI as the coordinating center. - For adult patients: specimens for research purposes, as outlined in this protocol, will be obtained from tests and procedures that are done as required by the primary research protocols to which a patient is enrolled or as part of their standard-of-care treatment. Non-surgical procedures, such as percutaneous biopsies, may also be performed for the sole purpose of obtaining tissue specimens or biological fluids for this protocol. Tissues and biological fluids to be procured may include but are not limited to blood, serum, urine, tumor tissue, normal tissue, pleural fluid, CSF, saliva, bronchial alveolar lavage (BAL), circulating tumor cells, hair follicles, and bone marrow. These specimens will be stored with unique identifiers and used to perform only those research studies that are outlined in this protocol. - For pediatric patients: tumor biopsy/resection tissue used for pediatric preclinical model development will only be from tissue already being obtained as part of a procedure necessary for the patient s clinical care or as part of a primary research protocol; blood specimens will be collected as part of a blood collection already scheduled for the patient s clinical care or as part of the planned pre-procedure bloodwork; volumes collected will not exceed institutional research limits. - Given the risks associated with any invasive procedure, such as tumor biopsy, the procedure will be discussed in detail with the patients and their parents/guardian (as indicated), including the side effects, prior to obtaining a separate consent for each procedure. A separate consent will not be signed prior to obtaining samples by minimally invasive measures, such as venipuncture. - This study has two separate consent forms at the NIH Clinical Center: one for adult patients to donate specimens for ongoing research on assay development and studies of molecular pathways, and one for adult and age-appropriate pediatric patients to donate samples for the generation of preclinical models. The study also has consent form templates for adult and pediatric patients at participating sites to donate specimens to create preclinical models. - Patients may remain on study for the duration of their consent or completion of the planned procedure, whichever comes first.

Patients will complete a survey before and after watching the WashU DIEP Flap Video at their pre-operative standard of care visit, and a third survey at their post-operative standard of care visit. These surveys will use questions from SILS, APAIS, PEMAT, and AIM/IAM to assess the patient's health literacy, demographics questions, and questions concerning patient understanding and anxiety surrounding the procedure. The purpose of the post-op survey will be to assess how well the video set expectations of the procedure and recovery process and will repeat questions asked pre-operatively. Survey responses will be analyzed to determine if there are beneficial trends and improvement in patient understanding and anxiety due to adjunct video usage. Primary Objective: The primary aim of the study is to determine if our animated video affects understanding and anxiety survey scores in patients undergoing DIEP breast reconstruction.

Antimuscarinic delirium (AMD) is a common and dangerous toxicology condition caused by poisoning by medications and other chemicals that block muscarinic receptors. Physostigmine is effective in reversing AMD but has a short duration of action, and patient commonly experience recurrence of AMD after initial control with physostigmine. Recent case reports and small observational studies suggest that rivastigmine, which has a longer duration of action than physostigmine, might be useful in the treatment of AMD. In order to investigate the effectiveness of rivastigmine in preventing recurrence of AMD after initial control with physostigmine, the investigators propose a randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial of rivastigmine for AMD. The investigators hypothesize that patients treated with rivastigmine after initial control of AMD with physostigmine will experience less recurrence of antimuscarinic delirium than those treated with placebo.
