The objective is to conduct a longitudinal investigation of the natural history, complications, and therapeutic outcomes in people with acute and cutaneous porphyria.

A study to test a medicine (fitusiran) injected under the skin for preventing bleeding episodes in male adolescent or adult participants with severe Hemophilia.

This study will test the safety of FT819, an experimental cell product, in people with severe active systemic lupus erythematosus. The purpose of this study is to understand the way someone's body processes and responds to FT819, and to find out what effects FT819 may have on a person and their systemic lupus erythematosus.

The purpose of this study is to learn about the safety and effects of pioglitazone and metformin on people and their risk of cancers of the head or neck. We hope to learn more about the potential for pioglitazone and metformin to be used as a way to prevent oral or oropharyngeal cancers in people who are at risk for those cancers. Participants will get both pioglitazone and metformin, as a single pill to be taken at the same time for 12 weeks.

This study is testing whether a single additional treatment of radiation therapy, called maintenance radiotherapy, is safe and feasible for adults who have recently been diagnosed with glioblastoma (GBM). Participants will first receive their usual treatment for GBM, including surgery, radiation therapy, and the chemotherapy drug temozolomide. About one month after completing standard radiation therapy, participants will receive one additional treatment of radiation therapy. The study will also look at changes in certain immune cells before and after the additional radiation treatment. Participants will continue their usual follow-up care every 2 to 4 months for up to 5 years after the additional treatment.

The purpose of this research is to collect information about the safety and tolerability of the study drug ACE-232, along with how well it works to control metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).

We are studying the use of immunotherapy before and after (in some cases) surgery to see if it will extend the length of time until the cancer returns compared to the usual approach. The usual approach for patients who are not in a study is treatment with surgery which may be followed by radiation. Participants will either get the study drug cemiplimab (REGN2810) before surgery for the cancer or will have up-front surgery. For those who receive cemiplimab (REGN2810), it will be given before surgery every 3 weeks for up to 12 weeks. In either case, participants may also receive radiation after surgery depending on the tumor tissue results from surgery.

This research trial studies the Project: Every Child for younger patients with cancer. Gathering health information over time from younger patients with cancer may help doctors find better methods of treatment and on-going care.

This study compares two treatment approaches for adults with colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver and cannot be removed by surgery. We want to learn whether adding a pump treatment helps control or shrink the cancer. By taking part in this study, participants may help us improve options for people with colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver.

Finding liver cancer early is important to increase chances of getting treatment and decreasing risk of dying from cancer. The purpose of this research is to compare the effectiveness of two liver cancer screening methods to detect liver cancer at an early stage. Participants will be randomly (by chance) placed in one of two study groups – one group will undergo ultrasound imaging of the liver with or without a blood test to measure a specific protein, whereas the second group will undergo a blood test for liver cancer screening called a GALAD score. The GALAD score combines three blood tests to screen for liver cancer. We do not currently know if GALAD would help detect liver cancer earlier than standard screening.

This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of imetelstat in combination with fludarabine and cytarabine in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML) that has not responded to previous treatment (refractory) or that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). Imetelstat may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Chemotherapy drugs, such as fludarabine and cytarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving imetelstat in combination with fludarabine and cytarabine may work better in treating patients with refractory or recurrent AML, MDS, and JMML.

The investigational therapy in this study is referred to as Restorative Microbiota Therapy (RMT). It is prepared by extracting healthy bacteria from the stool of healthy human donors and making it into capsules taken by mouth. The donor stool samples are rigorously tested for harmful bacteria and viruses before processing. There is scientific evidence to suggest that RMT might make immunotherapy more effective. The primary goal of the study is to test if RMT makes durvalumab + tremelimumab treatment with chemotherapy more effective to control lung cancer.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of investigational devices (the Lilac Glove and Lilac Boot devices) for the temporary reduction of moderate to severe symptoms of peripheral neuropathy caused by chemotherapy during the treatment of cancer. The Lilac Glove and Lilac Boot devices are designed to keep chemotherapy medication from damaging nerves. The study involves wearing the Lilac Glove and Boot devices on both hands and feet at each treatment session. Participants will be randomly assigned (like the flip of a coin) into one of two treatment groups; the “intervention group” (which means you receive treatment with the therapeutic Lilac devices) or the “control group” (which means you will receive treatment with the sham devices).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of ALTO-300, an investigational medication being studied for adults with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). This study will compare ALTO-300 to a placebo to learn more about how the medication may improve symptoms of depression and to identify factors that may help predict who is most likely to benefit from treatment.

This study is designed to better understand the mechanisms contributing to impaired activation of leg muscles in people with Parkinson’s disease (PD) and test if stimulation of a nerve at the neck (vagus nerve) can improve muscle activation, walking and balance. People can participate in one of two experiments, or both. Both experiments will test the muscle activation patterns in the lower leg when producing low levels of force. We will also assess walking and balance. Experiment 2 will test muscle activation patterns, walking and balance before and after vagus nerve stimulation. We are also asking people who don’t have PD and are 21 to 76 years old and match in age and sex to participants to undergo the same study procedures.

This study is being done to learn more about the efficacy and safety of LN-145 in participants with metastatic stage IV non-small cell lung cancer.

The purpose of this study is to learn more about the use of an investigational medicine, called brepocitinib, for the treatment of lichen planopilaris (LPP). Brepocitinib (the “study drug”) is designed to decrease inflammation. The study will look at how safe and effective brepocitinib is and will monitor long-term safety when it is taken for up to 52 weeks. The study drug will be compared to a placebo which is a tablet that looks exactly like the study drug but does not contain any active ingredient.

To assess and characterize the risk of malignancies, and long-term safety following treatment with atidarsagene autotemcel (Lenmeldy).

This study is for people who have been diagnosed with cancer that is advanced (means disease has spread from the original site or has come back) or is metastatic (means the disease has spread to other parts of the body). FOG-001 is currently being developed to treat people with cancer. We want see how safe and tolerable FOG-001 is when given alone and together with other anticancer drugs at different dose levels in participants. We also want to see how FOG-001 affects the body and the cancer

This study is being done to learn more about the safety and effectiveness of ifinatamab deruxtecan (I-DXd) against extensive stage small cell lung cancer.

We will enroll healthy pregnant women (following enrollment, all subsequent study procedures will be completed postpartum) or postpartum women on hormonal birth control or no hormonal birth control with either a recent history of smoking and a desire to remain abstinent after childbirth, or who are currently smoking and motivated to quit smoking. Participants will be recruited throughout the continental United States (US). Participants living in Minnesota (our clinical site) will receive a 12-week course of exogenous progesterone. Participants will be followed for six months with remote visits, self-administered surveys, and self-collection of dried blood spots to measure hormones and smoking-related biomarkers.

The trial offers women with ductal cell carcinoma in situ (DCIS) 6 months of neoadjuvant exposure to endocrine therapy with the intent of determining their suitability for long-term active surveillance without surgery.

The purpose of the study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of a new procedure to treat Mucopolysaccharidosis Type I Hurler-Scheie and Scheie (MPS I). This procedure involves collecting some white blood cells (termed “B cells”) and growing them outside of the body in a laboratory. While the cells are in the lab, the B cells will be changed to produce more of the IDUA that is missing. This process is called “genetic modification.” The newly modified B cells are then infused back into the participant.

This clinical study is for adults whose cancer has spread to the bones of the middle or lower back (spine). Doctors are comparing two common treatments: (1) a needle procedure to treat the tumor and strengthen the bone, followed by radiation, and (2) radiation therapy alone. The goal is to see which option better relieves pain, protects the spine, and improves quality of life. The treatment you receive will be chosen at random (by chance), meaning you will be placed into a study group by chance.

This study is following first-year university students to learn more about Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection. We want to learn more about how common EBV is, how often new infections occur, and what factors may be linked to infections. The results may help us plan future EBV studies.

The study evaluates the safety and effects of a novel regulatory CARTreg cell-based autoimmune and inflammatory disease therapy for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. The therapy is an autologous (using the patient's own cells) Treg cell therapy that targets proteins in the inflamed, disease-associated tissue, with the aim to dampen inflammation and restore balance to the immune system.

The treatment (chemotherapy and transplant procedures) is considered standard clinical care that are usually given to the patients with this disease. The research aspect of this study is to collect data on the patients who are being treated on this plan. Patients will be followed throughout the course of their clinical care and for three years after their transplant.
