This protocol will not recommend the use of any specific treatments, visits, or procedures. No medication is provided as part of registry participation.

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.

A study to evaluate if the randomized addition of venetoclax to a chemotherapy backbone (fludarabine/cytarabine/gemtuzumab ozogamicin [GO]) improves survival of children/adolescents/young adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in 1st relapse who are unable to receive additional anthracyclines, or in 2nd relapse.

This trial compares the effect of bevacizumab and osimertinib combination vs. osimertinib alone for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer that has spread outside of the lungs and has a change (mutation) in a gene called EGFR. Sometimes, mutations in this gene cause EGFR proteins to be made in higher than normal amounts on some types of cancer cells. This causes cancer cells to divide more rapidly.

The main purpose of the study is to see whether farudodstat, taken orally for 12 weeks, can help people with alopecia areata and to find out if farudodstat is safe and tolerable when compared to placebo. The placebo is a pill that looks like farudodstat tablet but has no drug or other active ingredient in it.

The purpose of this research is to understand the effort needed to understand speech if hearing is impaired. Listening effort is higher in people with hearing impairment and has wide-ranging negative consequences across many aspects of a person’s life. The goal of this project is to explore factors that make listening effortful, with special focus on the need to repair perceptual mistakes by relying on context.

This study proposes to collect lung fluid to identify potential biomarkers associated with pulmonary sarcoidosis.

This is a large-scale multi-center study of personalized, targeted immune modulation in childre with sepsis-induced multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS). This study is titled the “PeRsonalizEd immunomodulation in pediatriC sepsIS-inducEd MODS (PRECISE)”. The study includes two concurrent, immunophenotype-driven placebo controlled randomized controlled trils (RCTs) that will address the central hypothesis that individualized, pathophysiology-specific immunomodulation will improve outcomes from sepsis-induced MODS in children

The purpose of this open-label Expanded Access Protocol (EAP) is to provide access to MBP134, for treatment of Sudan Virus Disease (SVD). Patients will receive a single IV infusion of 50 mg/kg MBP134. Patients will be monitored and assessed daily through discharge for safety and the incidence of serious adverse events (SAEs), and of all adverse events (AEs) during infusions.

This phase III trial studies brentuximab vedotin and combination chemotherapy to see how well they work compared to combination chemotherapy alone in treating children and young adults with stage IIB with bulk, stage IIIB, IVA, or IVB Hodgkin lymphoma. Combinations of biological substances in brentuximab vedotin may be able to carry cancer-killing substances directly to Hodgkin lymphoma cells. Chemotherapy drugs, such as doxorubicin hydrochloride, bleomycin sulfate, vincristine sulfate, etoposide, prednisone, and cyclophosphamide, 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. It is not yet known if combination chemotherapy is more effective with or without brentuximab vedotin in treating children with high-risk Hodgkin lymphoma.

The purpose of this study is to develop a questionnaire specifically designed for children and adolescents, which will help health care providers to better measure how bothersome symptoms of cGVHD are for children and adolescents living with cGVHD. Another purpose of this study is to design a caregiver companion questionnaire, to allow caregivers to measure how bothersome the symptoms of cGVHD are for their child/adolescent.

The primary study objective is to determine whether “Take on Transplant” (ToT), a CF-specific Lung Transplant (LTx) educational website, improves patient-reported preparedness for LTx discussions, as measured by the Preparation for Decision Making (PrepDM) Scale at 3 months after randomization, compared to an attention control transplant website (unos.org, UNOS).

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.

The purpose of this study is to test a new drug, called ST-920, to see if it is safe and if it works to treat Fabry disease. ST-920 is a gene therapy treatment, which means that ST-920 replaces the missing or broken gene you have because you have Fabry disease, with a version or copy that works.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the Butterfly study device in reducing the symptoms that are associated with the BPH condition. Another purpose is to assess sexual function and quality of life following the use of the Butterfly study device. The Butterfly study device includes a metal (nitinol) implant that looks like a butterfly. The implant is inserted through the urethra - the tube that carries pee out of the body, and resides at the area of the prostate.

This is an early study of a new drug, called [225Ac]-FPI-1434, to treat solid tumors that have not responded to usual treatment. We are testing different doses of the drug and looking at how well it works for treating the cancer and side effects that occur.

A single visit study with muscle and/or skin biopsy / blood draw, performed to determine whether a molecular or cellular defect can be attributed to cells of Fascioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy (FSHD) muscle. This study is recruiting both individuals with genetically confirmed FSHD as well as unaffected healthy (control) individuals.

Having PTSD is associated with a higher risk of developing Cardiovascular Disease (CVD), which presents a major health risk for women, who are twice as likely as men to develop PTSD. The purpose of this study is to learn more about the mechanisms behind the relationship between PTSD and increased cardiovascular risk. Ultimately, our goal is to use the knowledge gained from this research study to help develop intervention and treatment strategies to protect the cardiovascular health of women with PTSD.

We are looking at a new drug called 'ziltivekimab' to see if it can be used to treat people living with heart failure and inflammation. People will get either ziltivekimab or a placebo (inactive dummy drug). The study drug is an injection given into the fold of the skin on the stomach, thigh or upper arm once every month. People will take the study drug for up to 4 years.

We are looking at adding lomustine to temozolomide and radiation therapy when compared to temozolomide and radiation therapy alone (usual care). We will compare the effect (shrinking or stabilizing) and side effects when treating newly diagnosed MGMT methylated glioblastoma. Each of the drugs and radiation work in a different way to stop the growth of tumor cells.

This study compares treatment outcomes between patients of African American/Black (AA) ancestry and European American/White (EA) ancestry currently receiving immune checkpoint inhibitor treatment. Collecting samples of blood and saliva and health and treatment information from racially diverse patients receiving immune checkpoint inhibitor treatment over time may help doctors better understand health care disparities among all cancer patients.

We are studying different drugs for the treatment of nausea and vomiting that is caused by chemotherapy treatment of people who have breast cancer.

We are comparing the effectiveness of the combination of ramucirumab and pembrolizumab compared to the usual chemotherapy for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer that is stage IV or that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). The drugs work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells. We will compare how well the treatment regimens work and the side effects that occur.

We are studying an internet-based pain coping skills program with pain education for cancer survivors who have persistent pain. Pain severity and interference will be compared to people who receive only pain education. The pain coping program has 8 sessions that are completed in the first 10 weeks of starting the study. The group that receives only pain education will receive access to the program after 6 months. Everyone is followed for 9 months

We are studying how well radiation therapy with or without olaparib works in treating people with inflammatory breast cancer. Olaparib may keep cancer cells from repairing themselves, making them die. We want to see if adding this drug to radiation therapy is more effective.

We are enrolling people who have had complete surgical removal of a stage II or stage III colorectal cancer. We will draw blood samples for circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) to find out if this blood test can be used to detect recurrence of the cancer. People will be followed for at least 3 years and up to 5 years.

We are comparing treatment of early stage, hormone positive breast cancer with and without radiation therapy. One group will receive radiation therapy with endocrine therapy and the other group will receive endocrine therapy alone. We want to find out if there is any difference in how often breast cancer recurs in the same breast.

The purpose of this research is to test the efficacy of different interventions to increase vaccination against human papillomavirus (HPV). Survivors of childhood, adolescent and young adult cancers are at increased risk of developing HPV-associated secondary cancers, but have lower HPV vaccination coverage compared to the general population. Interventions which are found to be successful in this study will be incorporated into future survivorship care to improve adherence to recommend preventive healthcare practices. All research procedures will be conducted remotely (e.g. online).
