Neuroblastoma Biology Study
Medical scientists want to find better ways to treat neuroblastoma and to find ways to prevent the tumor from growing back. To do this, they need more information about the characteristics of neuroblastoma cells. Therefore, they want to study samples of neuroblastoma tissues and neuroblastoma and normal cells in the …
The RESBIOP-study: Resection Versus Biopsy in High-grade Glioma Patients (ENCRAM 2202)
There are no guidelines or prospective studies defining the optimal surgical treatment for gliomas of older patients (≥70 years) or those with limited functioning performance at presentation (KPS ≤70). Therefore, the decision between resection and biopsy is varied, amongst neurosurgeons internationally and at times even within an instiutition. This study …
National Collaborative to Improve Care of Children With Complex Congenital Heart Disease
The purpose of this initiative is to improve care and outcomes for infants with HLHS by expanding the NPC-QIC national registry to gather clinical care process, outcome, and developmental data on infants with HLHS between diagnosis and 12 months of age, by improving the use of standards into everyday practice …
Safety and Durability of Sirolimus for Treatment of LAM
The MIDAS study aims to follow male and female LAM patients who are currently taking, have previously failed or been intolerant of, or may (at some time in the future) take mTOR inhibitors (sirolimus or everolimus) as part of their clinical care. Adult female TSC patients may also enroll, with …
Spine Procedures Assisted With RoboTics And Navigation
Creation of a pediatric robotic spine surgery registry will allow for data collection and analysis on the coupled use of robotics and navigation in pediatric spine deformity surgery across participating study institutions. Eventually, an educational and informative framework for this technology will be established.
Collection of Samples and Clinical Data From Patients With Amyloid Diseases
RATIONALE: Collecting and storing samples of blood, urine, tissue and data from patients with amyloid diseases to test in the laboratory may help the study of this disease in the future. PURPOSE: This research study is collecting samples from patients with amyloid diseases

Understanding Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
The purpose of this study is to collect human Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia tissue samples and medical information, in order to find out more about the causes and biology of chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
Investigation of Anatomical Correlates of Speech Discrimination
Understanding speech is essential for good communication. Individuals with hearing loss and poor speech discrimination often have little success with hearing aids because amplifying sound improves audibility, but not clarity of the speech signal. The purpose of this study is to determine the relative importance of the sensory cells of …
