Improved Methods of Cell Selection for Bone Marrow Transplant Alternatives
Bone marrow transplants (BMT) are one form of treatment for disorders of the blood, including leukemia. However, because the procedure is often associated with potentially life-threatening reactions, it is usually reserved for patients with serious illnesses under the age of 60 years old. One serious reaction complicating bone marrow transplants …
Diagnosis and Treatment of Leishmania Infections
This study will examine the natural history of Leishmanial infections and their treatments. It will provide an opportunity for NIAID staff to learn more about leishmaniasis and perhaps to improve diagnostic tests for these infections. Patients between 2 and 80 years of age with known or suspected leishmaniasis are eligible …
Tissue Procurement and Natural History Study of Neuroendocrine Neoplasms (NENs) Including Adrenocortical Carcinoma (ACC)
Background Neuroendocrine neoplasm (NENs)are rare cancers arising from the neuroendocrine cells and can affect almost any part of the body. They vary from low grade neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) to high grade neuroendocrine carcinomas (NECs). These tumors often occur in the gastrointestinal tract, pancreas, lungs, adrenal medulla (pheochromocytomas) or adrenal cortex …
Development of Magnetic Resonance Imaging Techniques for Studying Mood and Anxiety Disorders
This study is intended to help develop new MRI imaging techniques for studying mood and anxiety disorders. Researchers believe that depression and anxiety disorders may cause structural and functional changes in the brain. This study will optimize the way MRI scans are collected to look at brain structure and examine …
Evaluation, Treatment, and Follow-up of Patients With Lyme Disease
This study is designed to establish a population of patients with Lyme disease for evaluation, treatment and follow-up to learn more about the infection. Patients with active Lyme disease may be eligible for this study. Participants will have a medical history and physical examination and diagnostic evaluations as appropriate to …
Defense and Veterans Center for Integrative Pain Management (DVCIPM) Pain Registry Biobank
This Pain Registry Biobank is a prospective cohort design study whereby data (PASTOR survey, blood and saliva specimens, clinical data) is collected from participants in a longitudinal fashion with continual enrollment.
Viral Load in Blood and Lymph Tissues in People Living With HIV
This is a study to determine the effect of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) on lymphoid tissues (e.g., lymph nodes) as compared to peripheral white blood cells. We have shown in previous studies that the lymph node is a major site of accumulation of HIV in the body, as well …
Clinical, Genetic, and Epidemiologic Study of Children and Adults With RASopathies
Background RASopathies are a group of conditions caused by a genetic change. People with a RASopathy may have developmental issues, cognitive disability, poor growth, and birth defects. They may also have an increased risk for developing cancer. Researchers want to learn more. Objective: To learn more about RASopathies, how genes …
Clinical Manifestations and Biomarkers in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Type 4 and Other Inherited Neurological Disorders of RNA Processing
Background Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis type 4 (ALS4) is an inherited motor neuron disease. People with ALS4 have a change in the amount of RNA and DNA that bind together. This binding of RNA with DNA forms units called R-loops. Researchers want to learn how R-loops are related to ALS4. To …
VRC 900: Evaluation of Tissue-Specific Immune Responses in Adults 18 Years of Age and Older
Background The Vaccine Research Center (VRC) is dedicated to understanding immune responses associated with prevention and treatment of infectious diseases. To study these immune responses, researchers need to collect specimens and images from individuals who have recently had a vaccination or recovered from an infection. These specimens and images are …
