An Open-Label, Pilot Clinical Trial To Test The Safety And Feasibility Of Intestinal Microbiota Transplantation In Patients Undergoing Colon Resection
We have determined that the microbes (bacteria) in the colon can play a role in causing and preventing complications of colon surgery. While the surgical bowel prep before surgery eliminates the harmful bacteria, it also eliminates the beneficial bacteria that aid wound healing. The purpose of this study is to determine if we can restore the presence of good bacteria (also known as ‘intestinal microbiota’) in the colon by transplanting them from a healthy donor.

MT2021-24: A Phase I Open Label Study to Evaluate the Safety and Tolerability of ISP-001 in Adult Patients with Mucopolysaccharidosis Type I Hurler-Scheie and Scheie
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.

AALL2131; An International Pilot Study of Chemotherapy and Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors with Blinatumomab in Patients with Newly-Diagnosed Philadelphia Chromosome-Positive or ABL-class Philadelphia Chromosome-Like B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
This phase III trial compares the effect of the combination of blinatumomab with dasatinib and standard chemotherapy versus dasatinib and standard chemotherapy for treating patients with Philadelphia chromosome positive (PH+) or Philadelphia chromosome-like (Ph-Like) ABL-class B-Cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL). Blinatumomab is a bispecific antibody that binds to two different proteins-one on the surface of cancer cells and one on the surface of cells in the immune system. An antibody is a protein made by the immune system to help fight infections and other harmful processes/cells/molecules. Blinatumomab may bind to the cancer cell and a T cell (which plays a key role in the immune system's fighting response) at the same time. Blinatumomab may strengthen the immune system's ability to fight cancer cells by activating the body's own immune cells to destroy the tumor. Dasatinib is in a class of medications called tyrosine kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of an abnormal protein that signals cancer cells to multiply, which may help keep cancer cells from growing. Giving blinatumomab and dasatinib in combination with standard chemotherapy may work better in treating patients with PH+ or Ph-Like ABL-class B-ALL compared to dasatinib and chemotherapy alone.
• Age: Patients must be >365 days and < 22 at the time of enrollment

• Known history of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML)
• ABL-class Ph-like B-ALL who are CNS2 or CNS3 at end of Induction phase

MT2025-20: A Phase II, multi-part, five-year, randomized, open-label, assessor-blinded, active-controlled, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of rapcabtagene autoleucel versus rituximab treatment in participants with severe refractory diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis
The goal of this study is to find out if the experimental drug rapcabtagene autoleucel (herein referred to as YTB323), an investigational new therapy, is safe and effective (can help) for people who have severe refractory diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis (dcSSc). YTB323 is a chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR-T cell) therapy, which is a type of gene therapy or immunotherapy. CAR-T involves collecting and using a patient’s own immune cells, specifically their T cells, to treat their condition.

We will divide study participants randomly (similar to tossing a coin) into two groups; one group not receiving postoperative prophylactic antibiotics and the other group receiving prophylactic antibiotics postoperatively. Both groups will receive the exact same preparation before surgery, care during the day of surgery care, postoperative care, and care after hospital discharge.

The purpose of this research is to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of a new investigational drug called CRN04894, also called atumelnant for treating pediatric participants with Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH). We want to see how safe atumelnant is at different doses and how well the body accepts (tolerates) it and how it moves through the body (how it gets in, spreads around, gets used, and then leaves), also known as pharmacokinetics (PK). We also want to see if if atumelnant produces the expected effect in the body, if it helps control the CAH, and if we can reduce the steroid (GC) dose.

An Open-Label, Pilot Clinical Trial To Test The Efficacy Of A Suspension of Freeze-dried Microbiota In Patients Undergoing Colon Resection
We have determined that the microbes (bacteria) in the colon can play a role in causing and preventing complications of colon surgery.
