Autoimmune Features of Neurodegenerative Disorders
This study is being conducted to better understand the role of inflammation in Parkinson's disease (PD) and Alzheimer's disease (AD). The investigators plan to recruit 30 PD, 30 AD/Amnestic Mild Cognitive Impairment (aMCI), and 60 age matched healthy controls in this study to study the role of immune response in …
Identification of Pathways to Mitigate Immune-Related Adverse Events With Cancer Immunotherapy
This protocol is a prospective, observational study of participants receiving immunotherapy (checkpoint inhibitors, CPI) for cancer therapy, testing the hypothesis that patients with immune related cutaneous adverse events (ircAEs) have unique immunologic endotypes associated with polarized immune responses.
Determining Whether Multiple Anesthesia Exposures Affect Cognitive Function for Retinoblastoma Patients
The purpose of this study is to see if there is a difference between the development of the brain (neurodevelopment) in children who have been treated for retinoblastoma with multiple anesthetic exposures, compared with brain development in children who have never had anesthesia.
Non-invasive MRD Assessment in Multiple Myeloma
The purpose of this study is to investigate the sensitivity and accuracy of non-invasive MRD assessment using liquid biopsy (blood draw) and functional imaging (whole body MRI) in participants with new diagnosed and previously treated multiple myeloma. The long-term goal of this study is to investigate whether non-invasive methods for …
RFA of Benign Thyroid Nodules: Clinical Outcomes and Quality of Life Study
The purpose of this observational research is to evaluate and compare clinical outcomes after treatment for symptomatic benign multinodular goiter (MNG) patients. This is a data collection study in which we ask participants to give access to information generated before and after treatment of their condition.
Subclinical Transthyretin Cardiac Amyloidosis in V122I TTR Carriers
Approximately 1.5 million of the 44 million Blacks in the United States are carriers of the valine-to-isoleucine substitution at position 122 (V122I) in the transthyretin (TTR) protein. Virtually exclusive to Blacks, this is the most common cause of hereditary cardiac amyloidosis (hATTR-CA) worldwide. hATTR-CA leads to worsening heart failure (HF) …

The Natural History of Familial Dysautonomia
The study will collect clinical information from patients with FD and allow them to give blood to help develop biological markers of the disease to aid diagnosis and treatment. This is a non-invasive, non-interventional, observation study that poses only minimal risk for participants. The study will document the clinical features …
Early Childhood Obesity Programming by Intrauterine Growth Restriction
The molecular mechanisms underlying developmental programming of childhood obesity remain poorly understood. Here, the investigators address major questions about early childhood obesity programming by studying CD3+ T-cells from intrauterine growth restricted (IUGR) newborns who have an increased risk for obesity and other metabolic disorders in adult life.
