Genetic Analysis of Birt Hogg-Dube Syndrome and Characterization of Predisposition to Kidney Cancer
This study will investigate the genetic cause of Birt Hogg-Dube (BHD) syndrome and the relationship of this disorder to kidney cancer. BHD is a rare inherited condition characterized by papules, or bumps-benign tumors involving hair follicles-on the head and neck. People with BHD are at increased risk of developing kidney …

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 …
Natural History of Stroke: Cause and Development
The purpose of this study is to learn more about stroke and obtain information that may serve as the basis for future investigations. It will 1) establish a registry of patients with cerebrovascular disease (stroke); 2) characterize the natural history of acute stroke and transient ischemic attacks (TIA)-an interruption of …
Study to Investigate Lifileucel Regimen Plus Pembrolizumab Compared With Pembrolizumab Alone in Participants With Untreated Advanced Melanoma.
This is a Phase 3, multicenter, open-label, randomized, parallel group, treatment study to assess the efficacy and safety of lifileucel in combination with pembrolizumab compared with pembrolizumab alone in participants with untreated, unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Participants randomized to the pembrolizumab monotherapy arm who subsequently have a blinded independent central …
A Study to Evaluate XEN1101 as Adjunctive Therapy in Primary Generalized Tonic-Clonic Seizures
This is a Phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the clinical efficacy, safety, and tolerability of XEN1101 administered as adjunctive treatment in primary generalized tonic-clonic seizures (PGTCS).
Regional Radiotherapy in Biomarker Low-Risk Node Positive and T3N0 Breast Cancer
The purpose of this study is to compare the effects on low risk breast cancer receiving usual care that includes regional radiation therapy, with receiving no regional radiation therapy. Researchers want to see if not giving this type of radiation treatment works as well at preventing breast cancer from coming …
Natural History, Pathogenesis, and Outcome of Ocular Disorders
Background The National Eye Institute (NEI) wants to evaluate and provide standard treatment to people with eye diseases. Objective To examine and treat people with eye diseases and learn more about eye diseases and how they are inherited. Eligibility People with eye diseases who can give consent or have a …
Effect of Dalcetrapib on CV Risk in a Genetically Defined Population With a Recent ACS
This is a placebo-controlled, randomized, double-blind, parallel group, phase 3 multicenter study in subjects recently hospitalized for ACS and with the appropriate genetic profile. Subjects will provide informed consent before any study-specific procedures are performed. A separate informed consent will be allowed for an initial pre-screening genetic testing. Subjects meeting …
Clinical and Genetic Studies of Li-Fraumeni Syndrome
Background \- Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS) is a genetic condition that increases the risk for some types of cancer. LFS may lead to cancer of the bone or connective tissue, breast, and brain. It may also increase the risk for certain types of leukemia and other cancers. The only known cause …
Obtaining Solid Tumor Tissue From People Having Biopsy or Surgery for Certain Types of Cancer
Background \- Recent advances in cancer research have led to new therapies to treat the disease. It is important to continue these advances and discover new ones. To do that, researchers need tissue samples from solid tumors. This study will collect such samples from people already scheduled to have a …
