This study is testing different ways to look for neurologic side effects in patients who get CAR-T therapy for their cancer.

To determine the prognostic factors for visual outcome for newly diagnosed NF1-OPGs. Hypothesis: Patients (<18 years of age) with tumors involving the optic tracts and/or radiations will demonstrate worse visual outcomes compared to those without optic tract involvement.

The research aspect of this trial is the use of a new machine to remove specific lymphocytes from the donor’s peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs). This is called T cell receptor alpha/beta T cell depletion. This machine does such a good job at removing the unwanted donor T cells, and as a result we think patients will need fewer drugs to suppress their immune system.

To determine the prevalence, type, and severity of chronic health conditions (CHC) in survivors of Down syndrome-associated acute leukemia (DS-AL), and to compare CHC with frequency-matched DS individuals that have no cancer history.

People planning to undergo a bone marrow transplant and are at risk for developing problems with the lungs related to this planned therapy. The types and seriousness of lung problems that may develop after transplant can be very different and currently, we don’t exactly know what risk factors influence who develops them or how they may respond to therapy. Also, we do not know what the best test is to monitor lung function after transplant, especially in children and young adults. The purpose of this study is to help investigators learn more about lung problems after bone marrow transplant including what is the best method for diagnosing lung problems and following how well the lungs are working. In this study, clinical information, laboratory results and imaging findings will be collected from medical records to assist researchers in learning more about lung complications after bone marrow transplant.

The purpose of this study is to learn if removing the donor T cells from the donor product using this new method will be a better way to reduce the risk of GVHD. The benefit of removing these cells with this new method is that they will prevent GVHD without requiring drugs to suppress the immune system. Potentially, the immune system will recover from the transplant faster, which in turn will also lessen the risk of severe infections. As well, the patient will not have the other common undesired side effects of these immunosuppressive drugs.

The main purpose of this study is to see how safe and tolerable CNP-103 is for people with type 1 diabetes. CNP-103 is a nanoparticle (a tiny particle) containing special beta cell proteins. In each group of adults and teens, participants will be assigned by chance (like flipping a coin) to receive either CNP-103 or placebo (like CNP-103 but contains salt water). Participants will have a 66% chance of receiving CNP-103 and a 33% chance of receiving placebo. The total duration of participation from the first Screening visit until the last assessment is approximately 208 days.

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 research is being done to determine whether not taking oral prophylactic antibiotics after surgery is less effective compared to taking oral prophylactic antibiotics after surgery in preventing urinary tract infections (UTI) within 90 days after surgery. 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.

This research study is about early development in children diagnosed with congenital cytomegalovirus infection (cCMV), identified by newborn screening that has been confirmed with a follow-up test. Study visits, when the child is 12, 24 and 36 months of age, will include questionnaires, direct assessment of child and interviews with parent(s). A brain MRI will also be completed at about 12 months. Parents will receive a report summarizing a child’s developmental, language, and behavioral assessments, reported as within normal ranges or if clinical follow-up is recommended.

The purpose of this research is to measure the safety and effectiveness of ivonescimab compared to pembrolizumab. Ivonescimab is an antibody designed to block proteins that help cancer cells grow and spread, and by blocking these proteins may potentially slow cancer progression. Participants will have a 50% chance of being assigned to either the ivonescimab treatment group or the pembrolizumab treatment group.

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

This research study is testing a potential new treatment for pulmonary hypertension (high lung blood pressure due to heart failure) called TX000045 (study drug). Participants will be assigned to a study group and receive active study drug or a placebo (drug with no active ingredients). The study will last approximately 9 months

The Cordella™ Pulmonary Artery Sensor System is a possible treatment for New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class II and III heart failure. The main purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and effectiveness of the study device in helping to reduce Heart Failure hospitalizations.

This drug study aims to estimate at initiation of treatment to the occurrence of disease progression or expiration at 1 years post autologous stem cell transplant of classical Hodgkin’s lymphoma patients treated with BEAM autologous stem cell transplant combined with pembrolizumab given pretransplant and for 1 year post-transplant maintenance.

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.

This study’s strategy is to take a personalized approach, using a type of donor source combined with a drug regimen specific to that source. The common risks of a transplant approach include graft failure – when the transplant does not take; graft versus host disease (GVHD) – when the transplanted donor cells attack the recipient; and a late effect of infertility. We are studying whether this new approach with conditioning regimen matched with donor source is safer and more effective than our previous approach. Additionally, we are testing whether the dose of radiation will reduce the risk of graft failure.

We want to find out whether lifileucel is safe and works in treating untreated, unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Lifileucel is a type of medicine, known as immunotherapy, that uses your body’s immune system to fight cancer. Lifileucel is also called “tumor infiltrating lymphocytes” (TIL) and is made up of specialized white blood cells known as lymphocytes or “T cells” obtained from a piece of your tumor. T cells are a part of your immune system that help your body fight against infections and diseases including fight cancer.

In this study, we are going to compare two ways of treating mild respiratory illnesses in children with Cystic Fibrosis (CF). One is immediate antibiotics (increase airway clearance and start oral antibiotics right away) and the other is tailored therapy (increase airway clearance right away but only start oral antibiotics if symptoms worsen or do not improve). We are looking at how safe each option is and how well each one works. To do this, we will randomize participants (like flipping a coin) to one of these two approaches if a mild respiratory illness happens over the next 12 months.

A clinical research study for primary focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), or genetic focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), or focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) of undetermined cause in pediatric (12-17 years) and adult patients. Eligible participants will be assigned to receive either DMX-200 (repagermanium) or placebo (50/50 chance) over a treatment period, with total participation up to 28 month, with potential for participation in an Open Label Extension study period. The main purpose of this study is to see if DMX-200 reduces proteinuria and slows the loss of kidney function in those with FSGS.

The purpose of this study is to understand if a drug called baricitinib can help with thinking and memory problems after COVID-19 infection for people suffering with Long COVID. Some people have thinking and memory problems along with possible difficulty breathing, a racing heart, dizziness, and/or fatigue after COVID-19 called Long COVID. This includes things like having a hard time remembering people’s names, managing money, or keeping a job. For some patients, these issues may last several years. We still do not understand why these problems happen and why they last longer in some people. This study will look at the changes in brain function, heart function, and daily activities after taking baricitinib or placebo for people who experience Long COVID.

The goal of this study is to evaluate nemtabrutinib compared with either ibrutinib or acalabrutinib for treatment of people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)/small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) who have not received any prior therapy.

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.

The purpose of this study is to learn the effects, good or bad, of the study drug, vosoritide, for treating children who have hypochondroplasia. This condition affects the growth of bone and cartilage and in which kids who have it are shorter than other kids of the same age. In this study, your child will get either the study drug or placebo, which is an inactive medicine.

We are doing this study because we want to find out if observation is as good as the usual care for breast cancer. The usual approach for patients with early-stage triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) who receive preoperative chemotherapy plus pembrolizumab is to continue to receive FDA-approved pembrolizumab for up to 27 weeks after surgery. Participants will either get pembrolizumab for up to 27 weeks, or will not receive any treatment and will be observed for up to 27 weeks. We will continue to follow participants every 6 months for 5 years and watch for side effects or cancer coming back. After that, participants will be checked every year for a total of 10 years after the study.

People who have Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS) and have completed study treatment through Visit 6 on the AVK-101-301 study are being asked to join this study. The goals of this study are to see how ARD-101 affects eating behaviors in people with hyperphagia and PWS by looking at their scores on a 9-question survey, and to understand how safe (how many side effects participants have) and tolerable (how well participants can tolerate any side effects) ARD-101 is over the long-term.

This study is testing the study drug BDTX-4933 in people with locally advanced (unresectable) or metastatic solid tumors that are characterized by a KRAS, BRAF, or NRAS mutation/alteration(s). The primary objective of the study is to assess how well participants tolerate the drug and if it is effective.

This is a study to see if a new drug, named XYOSTED Injection (study drug) will help in the treatment of male adolescents ages 12 to less than 18 years old who have low or no testosterone due to a medical condition called Hypogonadism. Male Hypogonadism is a condition in which the body doesn’t produce enough of the hormone called testosterone that plays a key role in masculine growth and development during puberty. Participation in the study will last 52 weeks.

The rate of lung cancer screening is not optimal among Chinese American high-risk smokers, although there is a high lung cancer rate among this population. We want to validate the adapted Chinese Lung Cancer Screening Health Belief Scale, enable its usage in Chinese Americans, and further explore the relationship between lung cancer screening health beliefs and health behavior among Chinese Americans. We will also aim to identify the differences in health beliefs regarding lung cancer screening between high-risk populations in China and Chinese Americans, and to examine factors influencing these differences.

Ritlecitinib (LITFULO™, PF-06651600) 50 mg daily is currently approved for people 12 years of age and older to treat severe alopecia areata (hair loss). Ritlecitinib 100 mg will be compared to Ritlecitinib 50 mg to find out if a larger daily dose is safe and can improve regrowth of hair. The study will last about 57 weeks and will have up to 9 visits. Everyone will get one of the two doses of the study drug.
