Clinical and Laboratory Study of Methylmalonic Acidemia
Methylmalonic acidemia (MMA), one of the most common inborn errors of organic acid metabolism, is heterogeneous in etiology and clinical manifestations. Affected patients with cblA, cblB and mut classes of MMA are medically fragile and can suffer from complications such as metabolic stroke or infarction of the basal ganglia, pancreatitis, …
Pathogenesis and Genetics of Microphthalmia, Anophthalmia and Uveal Coloboma (MAC)
Background Uveal coloboma is a condition where the eye does not form normally. It occurs early in the fetus s development during pregnancy. It can lead to different kinds of eye problems, including blindness. Uveal coloboma is part of a spectrum of developmental eye conditions that include anophthalmia and microphthalmia, …
Registry of Asthma Characterization and Recruitment 3 (RACR3)
This is a multi-center, non-interventional registry to create and maintain a database of participants to serve as a recruitment source for current and future DAIT NIAID-sponsored Childhood Asthma in Urban Settings (CAUSE) studies.
Patient-Centered Assessment of Symptoms and Outcomes
Background The cause of fatigue is not well understood. It can be felt differently by different people. Some people think there are different types of fatigue, with different causes. Researchers think a therapy to treat one type of fatigue in one condition should be able to treat that type of …
Genome Medical Sequencing for Genome Discovery
Background A number of rare inherited diseases affect only a few patients, and the genetic causes of these conditions remain unknown. Researchers are studying the use of a new technology called genome sequencing to learn which gene or genes cause these conditions. Understanding the genes that cause these diseases is …
OMEGA: Outcome Measures in Eosinophilic Gastrointestinal Disorders Across the Ages
The purpose of this observational study is to find the best measures to define how well a person with eosinophilic disorder is doing. People with EoE, EG, EGE and EC normally undergo endoscopy and/or colonoscopy where cells are collected for microscopic analysis. Treatments are then decided based on how the …

Patients with NTM have recurrent lung infections and sometimes infections of the skin and other organs as well. They may also have curvature of the …
DICER1-related Pleuropulmonary Blastoma Cancer Predisposition Syndrome: A Natural History Study
Background Pleuropulmonary blastoma (PPB) is a rare fast-growing lung tumor that is associated with other, rare tumor types. Most cases of PPB appear in children younger than 6 years of age. Recently, it has been shown that this condition can be inherited (e.g., mutation of the DICER1 gene). Researchers are …
Recruitment and Apheresis Collection of Peripheral Blood Hematopoietic Stem Cells, Mononuclear Cells and Granulocytes
The research goal of this study is to obtain CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) from peripheral blood and/or bone marrow, and Mononuclear Cells (lymphocytes and monocytes), and granulocytes (grans) from peripheral blood that will be used in the laboratory and/or in the clinic to develop new cell therapies for patients …
