Improving Outcomes for Patients With Life-Threatening Neurologic Illness
Background While the intensive care of patients with life-threatening brain illnesses has advanced tremendously, a large number of therapies are still without proper scientific support. This can be partly explained by the fact that mechanisms of initial brain injury are still not well understood. Why additional neurological injury occurs during …
Genetic and Epigenetic Signatures of Translational Aging Laboratory Testing (GESTALT)
Background Biomarkers are substances in people s blood and tissues. They help researchers understand diseases and signs of aging. Scientists want to do more research on biomarkers to find ways to improve quality of life in old age. Objective To learn more about biomarkers and their relationship to aging. Eligibility …
Genetics of Charcot Marie Tooth (CMT) - Modifiers of CMT1A, New Causes of CMT2
This project includes two projects. One is looking for new genes that cause Charcot Marie Tooth disease (CMT). The other is looking for genes that do not cause CMT, but may modify the symptoms a person has.
Myriad™ Augmented Soft Tissue Reconstruction Registry
This is an observational study designed to evaluate the safety and clinical outcomes of Myriad™ in soft tissue reconstruction procedures. The study will enroll participants who are undergoing a surgical procedure, where the attending physician will use Myriad™ as part of the surgical intervention.
Collection of Tissue Samples for Cancer Research
Background -Patients who are being evaluated and/or treated at the NIH Clinical Center and adult patients at participating sites will be entered onto this tissue procurement protocol for collection of tissue specimens. Objectives To obtain samples from adult and pediatric patients for research purposes from tests and procedures that are …
Achieving Understanding of the Natural History of Sickle Cell Trait (AUNT)
The main purpose of this study is to create a longitudinal cohort of those with Sickle Cell Trait (SCT) to better understand the hematologic phenotype for those that carry HbS, assess for differences in those with varying quantities of HbS and assess for potential clinical complications of SCT.
Special Care Patterns for Elderly HNSCC Patients Undergoing Radiotherapy
The number of elderly head-and-neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) patients is increasing; however, the evidence regarding the ideal treatment for this often vulnerable and frail patient cohort is limited. Although the benefit of concomitant chemotherapy has been reported to decrease in elderly HNSCC patients based on the MACH-NC meta-analysis, it …
Measuring Surgical Recovery After Radical Cystectomy
The intent of this study is to establish a registry of post-surgical outcomes in patients undergoing radical cystectomy at MD Anderson Cancer Center and the collaborating institutions. The goals of this initiative are to obtain a detailed baseline of multiple patient-reported outcomes (PRO) and clinician-reported outcomes (CRO) as well as …
Validation of Early Prognostic Data for Recovery Outcome After Stroke for Future, Higher Yield Trials
VERIFY will validate biomarkers of upper extremity (UE) motor outcome in the acute ischemic stroke window for immediate use in clinical trials, and explore these biomarkers in acute intracerebral hemorrhage. VERIFY will create the first multicenter, large-scale, prospective dataset of clinical, transmagnetic stimulation (TMS), and MRI measures in the acute …
Multi-Institutional Registry for Malignant Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumors
First, the investigators plan to use a retrospective analysis to determine the clinical landscape of neurofibromatosis (NF)1-associated malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST) and precursor lesions (e.g., atypical or nodular plexiform neurofibromas). A worldwide database will be established, collecting, in a standardized manner, histologic, immunohistochemical, molecular, radiographic, treatment, and related …
