Long Term Follow-up of Mesothelioma Patients and Their Family Members With Germline Mutations in BAP1 and Other Genes
Background -A gene provides instructions to the body. Mutated genes can sometimes cause cancer. Germline mutations are those people are born with. These mutations in the BAP1 gene can cause mesothelioma and other cancers. Researchers want to study people with germline mutations of BAP1 and other genes known to cause …
Collection of Blood, Bone Marrow, Skin, Saliva, and Stool Samples From Healthy Volunteers Used for Comparative Analysis of Myeloid Malignancies
Background Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are disorders of blood stem cells that can develop into blood cancers. Treatment options are limited. To find better treatments, researchers need to better understand how MDS develops. To do that, they must be able to compare biospecimens from people with the disease to those of …
ExoLuminate Study for Early Detection of Pancreatic Cancer
ExoLuminate is a nationally-enrolling registry study designed for earlier detection of cancer in patients at elevated risk or clinically-suspicious for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Those with elevated risk for PDAC can include individuals with intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms, family history of pancreatic cancer, germline mutations in genes known to be …

Mesothelioma accounts for 0.10% of deaths annually in the United States. Malignant pleural mesothelioma is the most common of these, comprising of 80% of the cases with an annual incidence of …
Patient Registry of Blind Subjects With Sleep-related Problems
Non-24-hour sleep-wake disorder (Non-24) is a condition experienced primarily by totally blind individuals that results in abnormal night sleep patterns and chronic daytime sleepiness. This is a research protocol to develop a patient registry of subjects who may suffer from Non-24 and who are blind. Subjects participate in the study …
Natural History and Development of Spondyloarthritis
Background Spondyloarthritis (SpA) is a group of bone and joint disorders that may cause back and joint pain and stiffness. In some cases, SpA can lead to abnormal bone growth affecting the joints and spine. Some patients have SpA without ever developing these growths, while others develop them after only …
Technical and Translational Development of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (CMR) Imaging
Background Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an important non-invasive tool to study and diagnose cardiovascular disease. MRI scanners use strong magnetic fields and radio waves to create pictures of body organs. Researchers want to find better MRI methods and new ways of imaging cardiovascular disease and better understand normal and …
