This study is comparing two different ways Mycophenolate Mofetil (MMF) can be prescribed to pediatric lupus nephritis patients. One way is to prescribe a dose based on body surface area, and the other is to determine the dose base on information from blood samples. The goal is to see if one method works better at reaching the optimal amount of medication levels in the body in order to treat LN most effectively.
The expected outcome of this proposal is a novel care pathway delivered by pharmacists to improve side effects during oral chemotherapy for patients, a known barrier to adherence, and ultimately to prevent progression and early mortality. Our long-term goal for P3OC is to develop and test new dashboard features to optimize pharmacy care, meet future needs for value-based payment models, and improve patient outcomes.

Researchers at UNC-Chapel Hill are interested in learning from community members about how flooding from hurricanes affects their ability to access healthcare needs and services during and after a flooding event in Eastern North Carolina. The goal of this research is to gather with community members to make a list of concerns, write questions we can research, and select the questions that are most important to the community. Ultimately, we would like affected community members to have a voice in the type of research that is funded related to flooding and community health so that local and state decision-makers can respond to what matters most to the community.
