A Clinical Outcomes Study to compare the effect of Fluticasone Furoate/ Vilanterol Inhalation Powder 100/25mcg with placebo on Survival in Subjects with moderate Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and a history of or at increased risk for cardiovascular disease.
Volunteers between the ages of 40 to 80 with COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) are invited to participate in a UI study investigating the effects of 2 medications you breath into your lungs daily (Fluticasone Furoate (FF)/Vilanterol (VI) inhalation powder 100/25mcg QD) compared with a placebo. The study will involve multiple visits over the next 4 years. Compensation is available for those individuals who qualify for the study.

AAML08B1 - Biology Study of Transient Myeloproliferative Disorder (TMD) in Children with Down Syndrome (DS)
This study is organized by Children's Oncology Group (COG). COG is an international research group that conducts clinical trials for children with cancer. Participants in this study are children who have been diagnosed with a condition called Transient Myeloproliferative Disorder (TMD). TMD is found in young babies (less than 3 months old) with Down syndrome and is caused by abnormal blood cells that travel throughout the body. TMD can be life threatening if a subject develops any of the following symptoms: swelling of the organs, enlarged liver, and/or heart and lung problems. The condition of TMD in children with Down syndrome is not well understood. More information about TMD would help doctors to determine the best study treatment for TMD in the future. The purpose of this study is to collect blood samples from TMD subjects for medical research.
