The purpose of this research to enhance our understanding of adrenoleukodystrophy ALD and study biospecimens such assaliva, blood, urine and stool to identify potential biomarkers for early identification of dise. We invite people who have or are at risk to have ALD, including females who are known or at risk carriers of the mutation for ALD, to help us learn more.

This study is about a genetic condition called Adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD). The first goal of this study is to understand more about how ALD affects a child’s brain and development in childhood as they take part in medical care and monitoring. This is important to identify the optimal ways to detect and treat manifestations of ALD such as cerebral ALD. The second goal is to learn about how ALD affects caregivers, so that clinicians can offer better support to families in the future. We will also have healthy comparisons to help to learn more about the condition (ALD) being studied, by comparing the information collected to a child without the condition.

The goals of the current proposal are to systematically approach the development and iterative testing of a novel, culturally-responsive, evidence-informed psychotherapeutic activities (MyGender Dolls) for transgender and gender diverse (TGD) children (ages 5-10) and their caregivers. There are two primary objectives: 1) to develop and refine the MyGender Dolls psychotherapeutic activities based on feedback from community stakeholders, and 2) to assess the initial feasibility, acceptability, and usability of the MyGender Dolls with TGD children and their caregivers.

The goal of the proposed project is to investigate whether brain abnormalities are present in children to young adults after the recovery from coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

This research study is designed to compare a new gene therapy, known as OTL-203 (study drug), with a standard treatment called “allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant” (allo-HSCT), to find out which is better for the treatment of MPS-IH.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and ability of a transplant with your own gene modified stem cells (autologous stem cell transplant) to treat sickle cell disease. The goal is to determine if a sufficient amount of hemoglobin that prevents red blood sickling can be produced after the gene modified stem cells are returned to your body. This study may provide information on the potential usefulness of bb1111 for treatment of sickle cell disease

To determine the incidence of engraftment (defined as achieving donor derived neutrophil count >500/uL by day 42) in young children with leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome undergoing a partially matched single unit umbilical cord blood transplant (UCBT) after a myeloablative preparative regimen consisting of busulfan, melphalan and fludarabine.

To evaluate the ability to achieve high-level donor hematopoietic engraftment (defined as neutrophil recovery by Day +42 post-transplant and ≥ 80% donor cells on the myeloid fraction of peripheral blood at Day +100 post-transplant) using related and unrelated BM, PBSC, or UCB grafts following a reduced intensity conditioning regimen based on targeted-exposure busulfan, fludarabine +/- serotherapy in patients with inherited metabolic disorders and severe osteopetrosis.

This is a treatment guideline for a second or greater allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) using a reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) regimen. This regimen, consisting of busulfan, fludarabine, and low dose total body irradiation (TBI), is designed to promote engraftment in patients who failed to achieve an acceptable level of donor-derived engraftment following a previous allogeneic HSCT. While it will primarily be applied for the treatment of non-malignant diseases (NMD), on occasion it may be used to treat patients with malignant disorders as well.

The primary purpose of this study is to record outcomes and patient characteristics in the Cancer Center’s and BMT databases for patients who are undergoing an allogeneic (donor) hematopoietic stem cell transplant. The data will be analyzed for transplant “milestones” such as time to blood count recovery (engraftment) and how patients are doing at 3 months and 6 months after the transplant. Participation in this study will not alter treatment or medical care. All information for this study will be collected from medical records.

We are conducting a research study for children ages 6-17 with patchy Alopecia Areata (AA). The purpose of this research study is to learn more about the safety, tolerability and efficacy of an investigational drug called Baricitinib. This study will compare the investigational drug to a placebo (inactive substance) to see how well the investigational drug works.

This research is being done to help us better understand the different DNA repair disorders. We will collect data and samples that we will use to develop new therapies and medicine to help treat the disease. We expect that participants will be in this research study for 3 years. Visits will occur every six months and alternate between in-person and remote. Remote visits should be expected to last 1-2 hours, and in-person visits should be expected to last 3-4 hours.

The goal of this proposal is to develop fully automated, high performance, motion-corrected MRS sequences for the brain and spinal cord, that are also easy to share (no additional external hardware needed) with other institutions and easy to use.

Currently, there are no approved treatment options for pediatric subjects with proteinuric kidney conditions. The study will look at the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetic (PK) trial in children ≥1 to <18 years treated for up to 108 weeks with the drug sparsentan.

This study will investigate the efficacy and safety of REC-2282 in patients with progressive NF2 mutated meningiomas who have either NF2 disease-related meningioma or recurrent sporadic meningiomas that have NF2 mutations. This study is a parallel-group, two-staged, Phase 2/3, randomized, multi-center study with two cohorts: Cohort A followed by Cohort B. The purpose of Cohort A is to provide early data on efficacy and safety of REC-2282 in participants with progressive NF2 mutated meningiomas, and provide guidance for the correct dose, population, sample size, and endpoint for the confirmatory part of the study (Cohort B). Additional goals for Cohort A are to assess effects of food on drug absorption. The purpose of Cohort B of the study is to assess the efficacy and safety of REC-2282 compared with placebo in participants with progressive NF2 mutated meningiomas.

The primary objective for this observational study is to collect general and medical data from children, adolescents, and young adults who had pediatric onset rheumatic disease. This data will be used to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of therapeutic agents used to treat these diseases. This information will allow investigators to accurately report and follow changes in current medication use patterns and compare these to proposed standards and current treatment recommendations. The use of a single registry will allow for more analysis of the different therapeutic agents by allowing them to be compared to each other.

This project is a data and specimen repository for developmental disorders. Participants provide biological samples and permission to store their health-related data. The purpose is collect and manage these materials for use in biomedical research related to developmental disorders.

The goal of this study is to test the safety and effectiveness of tildacerfont in children with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). When a child is enrolled in the study, in addition to taking the study drug (tildacerfont), he or she will continue to take his or her standard glucocorticoid doses. A part of the study will be to test different doses of the study drug and to measure adrenal hormones at each visit. Children will be in the study for 18 weeks and will have to visit the study clinic 5 times.

The clear layer at the front of the eye that covers the pupil and iris (colored part of the eye) is called the “cornea”. When the cornea is damaged, it normally heals within a few days but it may take up to 2 weeks depending on the size and depth of the defect (wound). Some corneal defects heal much slower than expected. A defect in the cornea that fails to heal within the normal time of 2 weeks despite using the best available medicines and procedures, is known as Persistent Corneal Epithelial Defect (or PCED for short). The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and effectiveness (risks and benefits) of of NEXAGON ophthalmic gel for the treatment of PCEDs.

Humanitarian use devices are medical devices approved by the FDA for the treatment of medical conditions affecting fewer than 4,000 patients per year. The FDA reviewed the safety of the device and determined that the probable health benefits outweigh the risks of injury or illness from its use. Effective treatment of symptoms, however, has not been studied in formal clinical trials. Medtronic DBS Therapy delivers electrical stimulation to areas in the brain to help control symptoms of various movement disorders. You may be a candidate for Medtronic DBS Therapy for Dystonia if you have been diagnosed with chronic, intractable (drug refractory) primary dystonia. You or your third party payer (health insurance, Medicare, Medicaid or other) must provide payment for hospital, office and other medical costs related to this therapy.

This is a new type 1 diabetes onset study for ages 12-35 years old. We are looking at JAK inhibitor drugs to see if they can preserve beta cell function.

This study is looking at glucose (blood sugar) patterns in participants with Turner Syndrome between the ages of 3-80 years old. This will be done by obtaining 2 hours frequent blood sampling by completing an Oral Glucose Tolerance Test and a Mixed Meal Tolerance Test. Participants will also wear a continuous glucose monitor for 2 weeks. Along with the OGTT and MMTT, participants are asked to provide a blood sample for DNA and RNA testing. Participant’s parents are asked to provide a saliva sample for DNA testing

This study will enroll children aged 6 to 12 years who have difficulty in maintaining a healthy weight and see if the medication Vyvanse may help them to reduce their weight.

This is an open-label, multi-center, single arm, Phase 1/2 study to evaluate the safety, PK, PD, and efficacy of quizartinib administered in combination with fludarabine and cytarabine (FLA) (Re-Induction Cycles 1 and 2) chemotherapy for re-induction, with optional consolidation chemotherapy, and as a single agent continuation therapy (after optional, but strongly encouraged, HSCT per standard of care), in pediatric relapsed/refractory AML subjects aged ≥1 month old to <18 years old (and young adults up to 21 years old) with FLT3-ITD mutations.

In this study, the researchers are collecting blood samples to learn more about laronidase treatment in children that receive a hematopoietic cell transplantation. The laronidase dose regimens used after a hematopoietic cell transplantation may differ from those administered before. This study will establish the basis for determining if there is a need to adjust laronidase dosing regimens after receiving a hematopoietic cell transplantation.

This research is being done to determine whether the investigational drug tabelecleucel (allogeneic Epstein-Barr virus-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes [EBV-CTLs]) can help people with EBV-associated diseases.

Rhabdomyosarcoma is a type of cancer that occurs in the soft tissues in the body. This phase III trial aims to maintain excellent outcomes in patients with very low risk rhabdomyosarcoma (VLR-RMS) while decreasing the burden of therapy using treatment with 24 weeks of vincristine and dactinomycin (VA) and examines the use of centralized molecular risk stratification in the treatment of rhabdomyosarcoma. Another aim of the study it to find out how well patients with low risk rhabdomyosarcoma (LR-RMS) respond to standard chemotherapy when patients with VLR-RMS and patients who have rhabdomyosarcoma with DNA mutations get separate treatment. Finally, this study examines the effect of therapy intensification in patients who have RMS cancer with DNA mutations to see if their outcomes can be improved.
