Congenital Muscle Disease Study of Patient and Family Reported Medical Information
The Congenital Muscle Disease Patient and Proxy Reported Outcome Study (CMDPROS) is a longitudinal 10 year study to identify and trend care parameters, adverse events in the congenital muscle diseases using the Congenital Muscle Disease International Registry (CMDIR) to acquire necessary data for adverse event calculations (intake survey and medical …
Understanding Patient Experience Among Asians at MD Anderson
The purpose of this research study is to understand barriers to and facilitators of a positive patient experience for Asian patients.
Swiss Registry for Neuromuscular Disorders
The Swiss Patient Registry for DMD/BMD and SMA was launched in 2008 in order to give Swiss patients access to new therapies. It was founded with the financial support of several patient organizations and research foundations. Since 2008, children, adolescents and adults with DMD, BMD and SMA are registered with …
Molecular Testing for the MD Anderson Cancer Center Personalized Cancer Therapy Program
This study performs standardized testing of tumor tissue samples to learn which genes are mutated (have changed) in order to provide personalized cancer therapy options to cancer patients at MD Anderson. This may help doctors use testing information on tumors to identify clinical trials that may be most relevant to …
Clinical Performance Evaluation of MagIA IVD-MD Multiplex Testing (HIV/HBV/HCV/Syphilis)
Performance study to evaluate the clinical performance of the In-Vitro Diagnostics Medical Device MagIA H3S (a Multiplex Point-of-Care test for the combined detection of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), Hepatitis B and C and Syphilis) from serum, plasma samples collected prospectively or retrospectively in Ivory Coast and Kenya.
The United Kingdom National Registry for Myotonic Dystrophy
Myotonic dystrophy (dystrophia myotonica - DM) exists in two forms, usually referred to as DM1 (type 1) and DM2 (type 2). Both conditions are genetic disorders but each affects a different gene. DM1 is the most common adult-onset muscular dystrophy, and is thought to affect at least 1 in 8,000 …
Genetic and Physical Study of Childhood Nerve and Muscle Disorders
Background Some nerve and muscle disorders that start early in life (before age 25), like some forms of muscular dystrophy, can run in families. However, the genetic causes of these disorders are not known. Also, doctors do not fully understand how symptoms of these disorders change over time. Researchers want …
Assessment of the Psychosocial Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on the MD Anderson Cancer Center Workforce
This study investigates the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the psychosocial health of employees of MD Anderson Cancer Center. Epidemics have been shown to promote psychological stress among medical staff in high risk areas, which may lead to mental health problems. Assessing how the pandemic is affecting employees may …
Estab Biomarkers and Clinical Endpoints in Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1 (END-DM1)
Building on previous work of the Myotonic Dystrophy Clinical Research Network (DMCRN), the present study seeks to overcome insufficient data on natural history; lack of reliable biomarkers; and incomplete characterization and limited biological understanding of the phenotypic heterogeneity of Myotonic Dystrophy 1 by examining strategies to improve the reliability by …
Genetics of Cardiovascular and Neuromuscular Disease
We are studying the genetics of human cardiovascular and neuromuscular disease. There are many different genetic regions that have been associated with the development of cardiomyopathy. An equal number of genetic regions have been associated with muscular dystrophy and there is overlap because some of the identical genes, when mutated, …
