Extracellular Vesicles as Potential Biomarkers and Therapeutic Target in Gaucher Disease
This is an observational study intended to generate preliminary data to understand how lysosomal dysfunction can affect the biogenesis of extracellular vesicles, its content and function. The primary objective of the proposed project is to decipher how extracellular vesicle (EV) biogenesis and its role in intercellular communication can be impaired …
Blood Biomarkers in Pediatric Kidney Transplant Recipients
The objective of the proposed study is to assess whether a blood biomarker can be used to monitor the response to rejection treatment in pediatric kidney transplant recipients with biopsy-proven acute cellular or antibody mediated rejection. The study hypothesizes that blood gene expression profile and donor-derived cell-free DNA biomarkers (omnigraf) …
The Cardiovascular Impact of Hot Flushes
The overall objective of this study is to examine the physiological responses that occur during a hot flush in postmenopausal women. The following specific aims will be executed to reach the overall objective of this study. Aim 1: To determine if hot flushes can be reliably induced with a temperature-controlled, …
The Biomarkers in the Hyperbaric Oxygen Brain Injury Treatment Trial (BioHOBIT)
There are no therapeutic agents that have been shown to improve outcomes from severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). Critical barriers to progress in developing treatments for severe TBI are the lack of: 1) monitoring biomarkers for assessing individual patient response to treatment; 2) predictive biomarkers for identifying patients likely to …
International Ovarian & Testicular Stromal Tumor Registry
Rare tumors are understudied, yet have the potential to shed light on vast areas of cancer research. Ovarian sex cord-stromal tumors, rare tumors of childhood and young adulthood, have recently been found to be associated with a lung cancer of early childhood called pleuropulmonary blastoma (PPB). The cause of these …
A Natural History Study of the Gangliosidoses
Hypothesis: To characterize and describe disease progression and heterogeneity of the gangliosidosis diseases. This research study seeks to develop a quantitative method to delineate disease progression for the gangliosidosis diseases (Tay-Sachs disease, Sandhoff disease, and GM1 gangliosidosis) in order to better understand the natural history and heterogeneity of these diseases. …
Collection of Research Data and Samples From Patients Who Experience Immunotherapy Side Effects
This trial collects research data and samples from patients who experience immunotherapy side effects to store for use in future research studies. Studying research data and samples from patients who experience immunotherapy side effects may help researchers better understand how to predict, prevent, and treat these side effects.
Trigeminal Neuralgia Electrophysiology
The study intervention is to perform standard somatosensory evoked responses limited to the face during rhizotomy procedures of the gasserian ganglion (trigeminal ganglion) for the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia. The evoked responses will be measured at two locations before and after the clinical rhizotomy including: the standard contralateral scalp (EEG) …
Rare CFTR Mutation Cell Collection Protocol (RARE)
Over 1,900 mutations in the gene for the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein are implicated in causing Cystic Fibrosis (CF). Potential therapies that directly target defective CFTR are being evaluated in important clinical trials, but most target the most common CFTR mutation F508del. Many patients with rare CF …
Myopenia and Mechanisms of Chemotherapy Toxicity in Older Adults With Colorectal Cancer
This study will examine the association between low muscle mass (myopenia) at diagnosis and chemotherapy toxicity in older adults with newly diagnosed advanced colorectal cancer.
